The FINAL FANTASY XIV™ Thread: SRKGD's Goin' Balls Deep #Kreygasm

Has nothing to do with cheating… well sort of.
There’s just an exploit for an item that you can obtain and use it to gain 17358 exp. However, the item necessary for that can only be obtain from a Guildcraft leves over at Gridania.

It’s just an oversight in the items ability, but it allows any class in the game to hit at least level 40. And after that, it becomes a little hard due to lack of allowance, but still possible to reach level 50 in less than a day because of this.

I dunno… this is the first time I reported something to a game company, explaining the exploit. As long as they remove that reward, it should be okay.

I feel kinda bad, cause when testing this exploit, I went to another server (didn’t want to do this to my main characters), and created a new char and just did it. While doing it, people left and right were sending me Tells, asking me over and over wondering how I hit level 40 in less than 30 minutes. I even got reported several times. Makes sense why they freak, tho. I’d be tripping if I saw the message:
"XXX character is now level 15"
and the number went up every 30 seconds or so, non-stop.

Yooooo, mine to.
We in there.

pc exploded today while I was afk at work, whoops. Now can’t log on and power to 50 before they do maitenance.

Lol, some guy made a “bot” for log ins

I’m about to quit trying to log in, can’t even get into queue.

My game randomly crashed on me, giving me a R6025.
Possibly something to do with the client, which I wouldn’t doubt given how the game has been acting.

I was having fun playing :frowning:

Man sign me up for one if you’re handing them out

Yeah, I went hard on FATEs to get to 50 as I’m sure every lvl 50 in this thread did.

I agree that FATEs are pretty out of control the way it is right now. We’re even getting to the point where some dungeons/instances have the healers and tanks crying because there are no DPSes in queue, which is the craziest thing I’ve ever heard :rofl: :rofl:. It’s always been the other way around.

I wouldn’t mind FFXI style exp grinding (pre-Abyssea), but that shit’s never coming back. That was how people got to explore most of the world and also get good at their jobs, because you’d get mollywhopped by some mobs if you weren’t at least decent at your job in FFXI. That shit’s too slow for the WoW generation/era gamers, though. The Everquest generation/era (FFXI falls into this) was too stronk :sweat:

And that exploit is fucked up. If servers weren’t going down in 10 mins, I’d legit use it though, to get this cross class grinding out of the way :coffee:

Damn, that’s low.
I’d never use an exploit like that ever. Fucked up, man.

I’m in! How do I be a bad boy and exploit this exp thing?

Okay.
I guess let SE fix it when they can. I submitted my ticket and they closed it without comments. I WAS JUST TRYING TO HELP!! ;_;

Anyways, can’t login at the moment but…

  • Find the Guildcraft leves in Gridania.
  • Do the quest that requires 3 items.
  • Keep the bracers, I guess.
  • When you turn in HQ stuff you have a chance to do that leve quest another 2 times (3 total) for 200%-300% more exp
  • Keep doing this for roughly about 3 million exp points.

You can keep getting the bracers over and over again.

I wish I could be more specific, but I can’t until I login. Hopefully you’ll can figure this out.
Byeeeeeee.

That’s the crash bug i ve had everytime I played, there is no consistency to it, could be mins, could be hours before it happens.

Also, its affecting both amd and nvidia.

What is everyones launcher version? Mine is the 8/27 launcher.

Hmmm to give away my secrets or not?! =P

Tiny Tortoise is in the salt strand southwest of Moraby Drydocks. I believe you have to be level 50, and the bait is northern krill. It’s a relatively common catch (I get maybe 5 an hour), and on my server I’ve been selling for 5-8k per.

As for where I fish normally, there is a pool of water in the Sahagin area in Western La Noscea that is labeled Sapsa Spawning Ground in your fishing guide. With decent bait you catch whitelip oyster, blacklip oyster, and red coral (as well as fullmoon sardines at night and sea devil, which doesn’t sell for anything). I use northern krill, but I WANT to use krill cage feeders because that’s the sweet range to catch just the oysters and coral (and not the worthless devil). Problem is the krill feeders are a bait but are priced as if they are a lure (like 400ish gil) so I can’t use them until they fix it.

Anyways, whitelip oysters are relatively cheap and I sell for 150-200 per but they’ve been slowing down a lot. Red coral is really popular because it’s used to make a couple accessories and bracelets and I sell those for 500 per, 700 or 800 per HQ. Blacklips I haven’t sold many yet, but I’ve sold a couple HQ ones for 1500 per and trying to position normal ones at 1000, but I don’t think people are high enough level to use them. They make level 40-50 +int +crit jewelry.

So yeah, I make maybe 25k an hour fishing this stuff, assuming it sells and nobody else is there undercutting you. I’m lucky at this point since there are other fishers, but nobody seems to really be selling much. Also, a 1 minute jog away to the coastline on the way to this spot has hammerhead sharks, which have a really good catch rate if you use iron jigs. Those also sell for 300-400 per.

There you have it. Don’t tell anybody else, and if there are any fishers on Ultros I will kill you if you undercut me. Toodles!

I accepted all the leves but can’t pin point which levequest to do. Servers shutting downnnn.

edit: I would have spaced out the exp gains too, and tried to be slick lol.

Got my Marauder to 15 before the maintenance. Oh man. So much fun. Can’t wait to keep lvling up. :tup:

Logged in at 3am this morning just so i could get some play time in today. Lvled up to 34, and took down Titan. My Lala feelin mad pumped.

10 hour maintenance.

Finally, I can stop mashing on 0 and get back with my life!

I need that Behemoth theme song. That shit was…

wait for it…

Lol, wtf are the odds. I’m saying stupid stuff in shout chat minutes before they start maintenance. Then I see someone say “wtf, is that falaria, the awful warrior from emerald dream” referring to WoW. I look and see it’s none other than one of my old warrior guild mates from wow. Blew my mind. Now I’m wondering if anyone else is on the server. Might jump from the srk guild and see who’s in his guild. :coffee:

Cat lover.
And they call me a furry.

LMFAO This vid is the truth just bodies all over the place. You roll up and see a graveyard yep time to book cause you aint getting no exp there fam lol.
