So was it FoV?

This is why I don't want server merges. I don't want to deal with this crap The irony is that the "larger" your server is, the less social people are in general. You have one person who basically plays FFXI by "himself" with his army of alts, never needing to interact with others unless it's a group activity where progress is important (Gaol, Sortie, Master Trials etc, but even that can be multiboxed to an extent). Most of these problems that Asura faced would be instantly solved if people simply joined up together for common goals like HTBF, Deeds/Peculiar Foes, Ambuscade, Einherjar, etc. Instead, you just get hundreds dozens of players doing tasks by themselves, which leads to congestion. You add mercs to the equation and it's no wonder everything is flooded all of the time.
As a QOL adjustment, I wish they would add a real Duty/Raid/Event-Finder system. Something like a dynamic list that players can sign up for various events, and event-leaders can check for any interested persons, and instantly invite them without any delay. I feel like Yelling/Shouting is kind of a bad system to fill groups, especially since Term Filter can unintentionally block out messages you would otherwise want to see.

Is there a maximum number of buffs that you can have total, or just a maximum display amount? (I know about 12 song/roll limit, but I mean over all, all buffs. Is there a hard cap in the code?)

You could have a R10 tiz and an R2 DP, but the swarts won't fill both at once. They only fill the one you trade them with.
Ahh, thank you that makes so much sense now.
Kind of depends on your goal - are you trying to make one job its absolute best ASAP? Might want to focus on finishing off a single weapon to R15 first, even though the later stages are costly for the incremental gain (i.e., you need a whole stack of Swart to go from Rank 14 to 15). But if you're interested in using multiple weapons right away and not in a rush to max out a specific one, it's not unreasonable to spread out your Astral Detritus if you're on a budget.
Thank you, I think I understand the Swart now. I think I'm gonna Augment my Tizona to full while at the same time working on Death Penalty from the very beginning. I'm sure by the time I max Aug my Tiz then I'll be ready to Aug DP.

All this to say I am questioning the shield because not having an iLv shield equipped when taking any direct or AoE physical damage seems crazy to me to throw away the increased block chance.
I don't mind giving it up depending on the situation. In any content that matters you're to be floored to 6%. I suppose you could boost that up to 11% with an Ambu back? I think Banhammer put it best, just view it as grip.
Is everyone going to make a new idle toggle when you tanking adds in Gaol NMs?
I've got six different idle sets for my WHM: Refresh, DT, PDT, Misery, ResistSilence, Reraise (Sphere body). That's overkill and far more than anyone needs, but I appreciate each of them whenever their niche situations arise.

Shields dont effect your ilvl iirc. Also your block chance is floored anywhere it matters on any job not pld unless you build for it, and even then it likely wont amount to much unless you're war or bst with adapa shield

Valkyrie makes the problem worse because now everyone and their hamster just afks at the gate with it on and doesn't realize that they actually managed to enter, holding everyone out.

Maybe so? Genbu's still can't be augmented with M.Eva. so I'm still curious what Banhammer was talking about. And I don't see what would prevent Numinous/+1 from being a target for Field Parchment augments; it's a crafted item with no hidden or latent effects.
Genbu's shield can in theory be augmented with MEVA if you lucked out on the random augment pool. +4 is the highest I’ve seen on other gear pieces outside of Blood Cuisses. I do a lot of Tatter and Scrap Synergy for my 75 DRK used on Campaign battles.
MEVA is also possible on FOV augments as I have tracked at least 1 earring with it so there is no reason to believe it is not possible on a shield. +5 is probably the theoretical max as I have seen +5 EVA often.

ideally people would be like, hey wanna go in with me? but instead you get everyone spamming the trade and getting frustrated when someone beats them in. that little bit of extra work and interaction is usually decided to not be worth it even though it costs them more time in the long run.
It's quite hilarious they make QOL updates that almost nobody* is asking for (dynamis for example), but the few things that would make everyone's life significantly easier never gets touched.
Also #Asuraproblems
Spamming entry gate is the primary reason I don't want to do another mythic. You'd think it would be as easy as every person trying to get in would simply flag up, get invited, and leader pops a bunch of lamps (by the way, THAT'S an archaic model to begin with, why does EVERYONE need a lamp?) and everyone can join in. But because it takes an extra 30 seconds of work, nearly nobody does it. Same reason why the HTBF lines are always clogged shortly after a release or during a campaign. Or ambuscade. Sadly, people would rather solo and take FOREVER than join someone and get significantly more progress in a shorter time. People really do enjoy wasting time.

The amount of time I've gotten a lamp, tried to copy it my 2nd character, and then been locked out of the zone due to someone pulling is less than 0. I'll just spam (if I ever do another mythic).

FFXIV peaked at the end of the Bahamut Raids. They killed a huge portion of endgame with A3S's difficulty and then over compensated through the duration of the Alexander series. Alliance raids had a similar fate that went from party teamwork to trash, trash, boss.
After that they removed all creativity and homogenized the entire game. It is now a beautiful FF game with zero depth.
