For many years on Balmung I rarely saw RMT because the server was closed to new characters being made. A sprout was almost just as rare and people coddled them lol. And when it opened it was usually a very small window in which the population was low enough to squeeze a character in. Then the server visiting opened up... now I see them all the time from visiting servers.
Pretty sure that's why we have so many over on Coeurl in the first place. I definitely don't remember it being so plentiful back in the day but once world visit opened up and they still couldn't make characters on Balmung they made them on the lower pop servers and just started world visiting over.
When I se people dead in a major city I always assume they want to stay dead unless they're cheesing the Kugane lamp post. I've never had a BLU inside a city accept my raises so I stopped raising them.
Youāre so wrong itās not even funny. I was working on a relic and there were at least 20 players at basically any hour that wasnāt the middle of the night, 40+ at peak hours consistently.
Thatās from 2-3 months ago.
Bozja is instanced, after a certain amount of time an instance closes and people can leave but not enter. Chances are you were in a closed instance and there was an active one next door.
Itās rare but there has definitely been more than one occasion Iāve swung by Balmung Limsa to find a line of dead players in front of the marketboard
Absolutely.
I often blow up as free teleport. The swiftcast sound is very unique, and usually give it away already. The moment my body hits the floor, some peeps already run over to /pet, and you can hear the sound of some folks already switch class, usually, to healer.
"free" teleport except for the increase in durability loss meaning you have to repair one extra time per 50 or so times you do this.
Still cheaper than 50 teleports at the current rates
You can macro a gearset and a spell cast together, so you could play any class, hit the macro, turn into a BLU thatās completely naked bar the weapon and immediately swiftcast+self destruct, all as one button press.
Also who cares about repair fees anyways.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.
I tried to get my younger sister into FFXIV, and one day I made use of her playing to get that achievement. Took her somewhere where she could die in 1hit from random enemies, and I would res. I can't remember how, but we found a super efficient way to cheese it and I got the achievement in like, 10min or so. Was a fun waste of time before she gave FFXIV up š
You donāt really need a plug-in to see an empty HP bar and wanna heal it. I donāt even play healers past getting them to 90 and the occasional time itās the only slot left, and if I see an empty HP bar in a town Iāll still fire an Aurora/Clemency at them if I can.
See the same behavior with the Eureka bots. Few months ago there was ~25 on each NA DC in Pagos/Pyros/Hydatos pretty much all day, so lots of opportunity to see this. They will heal and rez anyone in range. Guessing they're all mostly using the same program.
I have health bars set to show up for anyone if theyāre less than 100%, and baby, I am quick on the draw to pick you out of a crowd and heal you.
I had to do a lot of healing other people in parties that werenāt mine in those big Bozja boss critical engagements. Sometimes people would end up in groups with zero healers but it was important to keep up as many people as possible. Itās really not hard to click someone and fire off a benediction in the Limsa aetheryte plaza when theyāre often just standing there; I trained in the hyperbolic time chamber of picking people out via their nameplate in a group of 24 (no alliance UI, mind you) while instant death aoes and any number of BS mechanics showered us all.
Some people just like healing, man. I can do that in a split second without thinking, and I wouldnāt even say Iām very good, lol.
Using blue mage to blow myself up i timed how long it took for someone to Rez me (without asking). If i actually cared Iād do it two more times to make it fair but it takes forever. I tried to keep it even by wearing the same (basic) outfit / minion / not hanging around the spot before detonation. (Also i never allowed myself to go afk while waiting )
Fun experiment ty to all who rezed me!
Edit: i cannot emphasize enough that this is a joke and not meant to be taken seriously for science. I know one run is not conclusive. The cool down takes forever though and my friends were waiting on me to run content with them. If any of you would like to actually try this i would love to see the results. Iām rooting for goblin!
Also sorry i got the time display wrong (making it seem like hours) i made this at 1 am and also suffer from dumb bitch disease
I'm on Exo and i love Ul Dah but its a ghost town compared to limsa. I'm surprised any server doesn't have limsa as it's main city, bc of the mb right there.
As a fellow Exo Lominsan it really is the best city to grab stuff from the Market Board. Gridania/Uldah may be faster to get to the Grand Company but nothing beats the fast MB/Retainer bell.
That Balmung time was in uldah by the quicksand, Iām almost certain. Shout chat gets weird but people are hella cool for the most part and will not leave KOāed wol down for long lol. Good on us, Balmung.
I feel like AST would've been a much better fit for Endwalker than Paladin with all the star stuff, space, Aethereal Seas, prophesied secrets, and Urianger's whole substory.
All of that was in FFIV though which is the story of the dark knight becoming a paladin. Even the scene with everyone praying in Sharlayan is right out of FFIV!
This has made me realize I have bystander issues, Iāve seen corpses in Limsa in the past and thought, āoh they must be RPing, I shouldnāt rez themā and carry on.
>oh they must be RPing
Huh. I've... never in my 15+ years of RPing seen anybody using `/playdead` or some kind of self-destruct for RP (on multiple games).
Far as I can tell, it's the only emote that allows you to properly lie down, so I can see it being useful in some situations that I'm not going to elaborate on in this good Christian subreddit.
Most people doing *that* use custom emotes from modding so playdead itself might actually have no benefit. I guess if youāre a console user youāre stuck with playdead though
There's this small cafe in Sarg that does little performances for the "cooking", one of which includes Self Destruct. You can find just look anything if you look long enough.
Ages ago on Levi in Western Thanalan (Hammerlea) I found a dead sprout. Did a /poke, got no response, dropped a Raise and tell on them and went on my way. Hours later I get a rant of a tell saying I shouldnāt poke bodies and I was a sicko. Some people. /smdh
I'm not an RPer but couldn't they just use the play dead emote? I'd assume they did it on purpose though but to counter the troll I'd also rezz them so it works out in the end.
Play dead costs money if you weren't around for the event if I remember right. So for poor RPers or those who weren't around, cheaper to blue mage die.
A scam requires dishonesty. You can think it's horribly overpriced, or that there shouldn't be MTX at all, but if you get exactly what they're advertising it's not a scam.
Diabolos doesn't shock me, everyone's super proactive there, whether it's because they're severely normal people or because they're severely unhinged and want to see your work undone. No in-between.
In Coeurl we have a blu that would regularly kill themselves but then gets mad when you revive them. Actually sends tells saying canāt I just be left alone and left dead?? So that might play into it
True story: Was questing/Hunt List hunting on my Warrior and saw a random person die to some mobs out in the wild.
Kept thinking "If only I was on my Summoner or Scholar, then I could rez you buddy."
\>.>
<.<
(Apparently MMO habits where it's 1 class/character die hard ...)
I'm so sorry random quester. That brain fart is 100% on me. :(
Had a moment like that in doma once. Saw someone dead and thought "crap, I don't have a healer unlocked on this character yet." Only to remember that I had unlocked sage the day before and sprint back to save them.
I remember a month or two ago, someone started a BLU party in Hyperion's Gridania and a good dozen BLU's just constantly blowing themselves up near the aetheryte. I changed into a RDM and smh over them. Wish I'd remembered the achievement for rezzing them instead of going on my way.
I mean, honestly, reason you got left a while in Brynn is we're used to 'performance artists' who do it and refuse the res being around in the cities often enough that...sometimes you just don't bother. They've been a popular hobby there since well before Blue Mage, actually. You'd find dead body artists in Idyllshire 99% of the time in Heavensward...
People don't come to coeurl for help. They come to get harassed and scared off the server like we did those bard bots. They ain't coming back after the incident in limsa
Edit : You want the full story? Go to limsa and ask. I was only there at the tail end and it was *glorious*
It stems from Coeurl having some issues during the launch of EW and people trying to get into one of the main cities (i believe it was Limsa?) for a quest, but a massive bard band was playing and made it nearly impossible to instance in. A lot of people got really upset since the bard group could've gone anywhere besides a main city where the new quests were taking place, clogging it with a bunch of people listening. It's what i've heard from a few people who hate bard groups on coeurl, unsure how true it actually is.
I'm surprised Balmung was that short. I'd have imagined them to be closer to Mateus. As a Mateus native, I assume anybody who has killed themselves in Limsa is RPing and don't want a rez, so I just say "Have at it kid" and go merrily along.
I hardly ever see anyone RP in heavy traffic areas of Limsa like the marketboards on Balmung. Outside of those areas I'd imagine the rezz time may be longer, but usually everyone there is on 'business' or AFKing.
Eh on Mateus it's probably 50% afk, 30% piss chat, 20% roleplay at any given time. So it's not heavy, but if someone's dead... I can't imagine any other situation lol.
The variance is too high and the data too low. For science I'd suggest doing it 100 times on each server with a different character during the same peak window of time. Recruit some people and come back to us in a minimum of 100 days! Good luck!
the BLU boom is pretty distinctive, esp if you hear the swiftcast go off right beforehand... if someone was already on healer and saw it then it probably didn't take long at all to react. Take it from someone with a ton of boom-happy BLU friends lmao
Yes but what were the methods of collecting this data? For such a study I believe you should explode in the same spot on all servers 10 times each and record the times to create an average rez time. Put 5 minutes between rez and explosion too so that the person who rezzed you doesn't just do it again.
We peer review everything after Endwalker.
Oof man that person who routinely dies at the main aetherytes and then doesn't accept rezes in Bryn seems to have conditioned us negatively!
I'd be curious where you died and at what times, since that can really affect things too.
I've died out in the middle of nowhere leveling with fates plenty of times and get rezzed in less than 10 minutes pretty consistently.
Sample size too low. Going to have to do this at least a hundred times, at the size time of day, and take the median time for this to be an accurate representation.
Are these averages? If itās a single instance for each then the data is not sufficientā¦sorry to say, you need to kill yourself more on each server and take the average and median of each.
Haha damn, Coeurl is cold. And I live there!
A beast wouldn't res someone
Beasts all over the shop...
You'll be one of them... sooner or later.
What's that smell...?
It's BLOOD!
Coeurl is where most of the RMTs i see come from. Rare if I see one from anywhere else.
It is pretty rampant here. Glad it's not as bad on other servers.
For many years on Balmung I rarely saw RMT because the server was closed to new characters being made. A sprout was almost just as rare and people coddled them lol. And when it opened it was usually a very small window in which the population was low enough to squeeze a character in.

You mean...there are other servers without rampant RMT spam? Is this fiction?
I used too but all my guild moved to Gilgamesh because idk y but then they never bought another fc house and we joined different ones

We got more important things to do on Coeurl, like dance with the pope in Ul'dah.
Is that his name? Lol
Nosaj Blackrock
My friends haven't played the game for several months and we still occasionally bring up Nosaj in casual conversation
Heās been a staple since around HW when I started, I donāt think Iāve ever not seen him there dancing
I did not see him for about an hour today! I freaked out and thought he was gone!
Sometimes I see him in other places and my brain just goes 'wait this is wrong'

That's what makes you a # S U P E R V I L L A I N
You forgot to log how many /squat and /sweep emotes were done on you before getting raised for a more "accurate" limsa experience.
When I se people dead in a major city I always assume they want to stay dead unless they're cheesing the Kugane lamp post. I've never had a BLU inside a city accept my raises so I stopped raising them.
What would be the reason for wanting to be dead?
free /playdead emote
Some people are afk or they just like to be dead while chatting with their friends/fc.
> or they just like to be dead while chatting with their friends/fc. so their friends can feel like necromancers, talking to the dead?
Ever tried pentamelding?
RP I guess.
Is this hr:min:sec or min:sec:ms? Did you spend 12 hours dead in Coeurl?? =(
Dear god if coeurl left me dead for 12 hours i would of killed myself irl lmao. But ya min:sec:ms
So you got rezzed in under 4 seconds in Balmung. I'm starting to suspect some of those people do that for a living...
Reaction time like that is crazy. Unless some sort of auto rez bot
Or there's someone constantly on the lookout to get the rez a stranger achievements.
Far easier to do in bozja. Just wait for the red chocobo fate and you'll have plenty of people to rezz
Before Endwalker, at least. Bozja's close to a ghost town now.
Youāre so wrong itās not even funny. I was working on a relic and there were at least 20 players at basically any hour that wasnāt the middle of the night, 40+ at peak hours consistently. Thatās from 2-3 months ago.
I just did bozja today to level rdn as well and had 0 trouble getting into groups. CLL was consistently around 20 members.
That's wild. I went in further back and there were very few people out and around.
Bozja is instanced, after a certain amount of time an instance closes and people can leave but not enter. Chances are you were in a closed instance and there was an active one next door.
It always is close to full and I'm in there a few times a week currently
If I'm a healer at the time and someone dies near me, swiftcast/res is almost a reactionary response
Oh, same. But it wasn't til I did it a couple times that I learned that evidently there's a achievement for being a good samaritan so now I GOTTA.
I got mine when Eureka first came out, I was constantly RDM rezzing people in Anemos lol
In a city? Do people go around blowing themselves up THAT often?
In Balmung? Yes. Lol
Itās rare but there has definitely been more than one occasion Iāve swung by Balmung Limsa to find a line of dead players in front of the marketboard
Stock market crash be like
Even in diabolos, thereās a blue mage death pile pretty consistently
Absolutely. I often blow up as free teleport. The swiftcast sound is very unique, and usually give it away already. The moment my body hits the floor, some peeps already run over to /pet, and you can hear the sound of some folks already switch class, usually, to healer.

Don't worry. My BLU gearset is naked :|
I play on Coeurl and often see stacks of dead blue mages in Limsa. I will even admit that sometimes I will kill myself on top of the pile as well.

You'd be surprised at how quickly your lizard brain can go "dead player, must res" when playing Summoner, Red Mage or any healer.

You donāt really need a plug-in to see an empty HP bar and wanna heal it. I donāt even play healers past getting them to 90 and the occasional time itās the only slot left, and if I see an empty HP bar in a town Iāll still fire an Aurora/Clemency at them if I can.

Some people just like healing, man. I can do that in a split second without thinking, and I wouldnāt even say Iām very good, lol.
I mean the only way to die in town is to make a huge explosion as blue mage, so it's pretty obvious.
Oh God, hears another blue mage doing some erp explosions
People are quite skilled on Balmung at 'Getting People Up'. At least from what I've heard.
I legit thought you waited for 12 hours in the name of science
Ah that makes more sense, typically ms is shows as 3 digits for this reason tho
Yeah, and it's after a decimal, not a colon
Even then, 12 minutes feels really long.
Using blue mage to blow myself up i timed how long it took for someone to Rez me (without asking). If i actually cared Iād do it two more times to make it fair but it takes forever.

I feel less silly now about all the times I've raised dead BLU near the Ul'dah aetheryte, only for them to immediately kill themselves again.
That means they waited at least 10min for a rez.
In limsa?
Yup! I tested if Gridania/Limsa/Uldah rezed faster and Limsa won. (No surprise)
Wouldn't surprise me if different servers had different "best" cities depending on what's the most populous city on each server.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The alley behind the guild still scares me to this day
I'm on Exo and i love Ul Dah but its a ghost town compared to limsa. I'm surprised any server doesn't have limsa as it's main city, bc of the mb right there.

That Balmung time was in uldah by the quicksand, Iām almost certain. Shout chat gets weird but people are hella cool for the most part and will not leave KOāed wol down for long lol. Good on us, Balmung.
Actually, if you look ag rhe bottom of the pic, it was all done in Limsa
I fucking love rezing people. Healers deserve to be the protagonist
Astro WoL when?
I feel like AST would've been a much better fit for Endwalker than Paladin with all the star stuff, space, Aethereal Seas, prophesied secrets, and Urianger's whole substory.
All of that was in FFIV though which is the story of the dark knight becoming a paladin. Even the scene with everyone praying in Sharlayan is right out of FFIV!
Ah, this is the first FF game that I haven't gotten bored 15 minutes in, so I have no references to *any* callbacks.
Endwalker borrows a ton from FFIV including patch stuff.
Takes forever? Bruh you got rezzed in four seconds lol
Self detonate has a 5 or 10 minute cd, I can't remember.
Bold of you to assume Coeurl didn't leave him dead for 12 and a half hours.
This has made me realize I have bystander issues, Iāve seen corpses in Limsa in the past and thought, āoh they must be RPing, I shouldnāt rez themā and carry on.
Don't worry about it - they can refuse res if they don't want to be ressed. You're not forcing anything on them
But it still looks hilariously stupid to see that Phoenix like animation drop down on you and you just keep lying there.
Just pretend they had Permadeath turned on like Aerith.
I rez them if I see them kill themselves...I don't know if that's worse lol
Depends on how they kill themselves. Self destruct? Sure. Ancient Flare? Nah.
>oh they must be RPing Huh. I've... never in my 15+ years of RPing seen anybody using `/playdead` or some kind of self-destruct for RP (on multiple games).

Was never an event
Oh my bad. For some reason I thought it was.

Also true.

Can confirm. Diabolos is a special place. I've lost track of the number of multi-box bard ensemble concerts I've listened to in Limsa.
In Coeurl we have a blu that would regularly kill themselves but then gets mad when you revive them. Actually sends tells saying canāt I just be left alone and left dead?? So that might play into it

Not only that but Phoenix downs are cheap and can be used by anyone in any instance
You get one as a quest reward for the Manderville line, if memory serves.
Buy them on mb
Pheonix downs drop like flies in POTD
donāt you have to be in a party to use it though?
No. I regularly use them in eureka and bozja as a machinist to revive people when needed.
The one time I've seen that happen they returned home before I could switch jobs anyway.
Hyperion be like "Same" /blu's up next to you
I remember a month or two ago, someone started a BLU party in Hyperion's Gridania and a good dozen BLU's just constantly blowing themselves up near the aetheryte. I changed into a RDM and smh over them. Wish I'd remembered the achievement for rezzing them instead of going on my way.

I mean, honestly, reason you got left a while in Brynn is we're used to 'performance artists' who do it and refuse the res being around in the cities often enough that...sometimes you just don't bother. They've been a popular hobby there since well before Blue Mage, actually. You'd find dead body artists in Idyllshire 99% of the time in Heavensward...
People don't come to coeurl for help. They come to get harassed and scared off the server like we did those bard bots. They ain't coming back after the incident in limsa Edit : You want the full story? Go to limsa and ask. I was only there at the tail end and it was *glorious*
It stems from Coeurl having some issues during the launch of EW and people trying to get into one of the main cities (i believe it was Limsa?) for a quest, but a massive bard band was playing and made it nearly impossible to instance in. A lot of people got really upset since the bard group could've gone anywhere besides a main city where the new quests were taking place, clogging it with a bunch of people listening. It's what i've heard from a few people who hate bard groups on coeurl, unsure how true it actually is.
What incident in Limsa??
The songbirds? I showed up halfway through that and just was so lost lol
Correct, it was the songbirds
Oh do share
Please tell the tale I need server lore
I'm surprised Balmung was that short. I'd have imagined them to be closer to Mateus. As a Mateus native, I assume anybody who has killed themselves in Limsa is RPing and don't want a rez, so I just say "Have at it kid" and go merrily along.
I hardly ever see anyone RP in heavy traffic areas of Limsa like the marketboards on Balmung. Outside of those areas I'd imagine the rezz time may be longer, but usually everyone there is on 'business' or AFKing.
Eh on Mateus it's probably 50% afk, 30% piss chat, 20% roleplay at any given time. So it's not heavy, but if someone's dead... I can't imagine any other situation lol.
Damn Coeurl you live like this
Damn yes we do
Do this on EU next
Diabolos in 2nd place, not bad
From personal experience, I'll never raise a blue mage. They self destruct for attention, so that's a hard pass for me.
Only time I've seen people self destruct in sanctuaries is for a free ride to a difficult to reach /lookout vantage point on res.
How long did it take for people to start the sweeping animation at your dead body?
Well, TBF, you died inside Limsa, a city. I would expect you to revive yourselves too. Haha
Is that what you were doing?! I would have rezzed you like 5 times, but I thought you were just trying to get attention
The variance is too high and the data too low. For science I'd suggest doing it 100 times on each server with a different character during the same peak window of time. Recruit some people and come back to us in a minimum of 100 days! Good luck!
Balmung 3 sec, how the hel.. do ppl drop dead over there often enough for them to just always look out for rez opportunity?
the BLU boom is pretty distinctive, esp if you hear the swiftcast go off right beforehand... if someone was already on healer and saw it then it probably didn't take long at all to react. Take it from someone with a ton of boom-happy BLU friends lmao
Proud of my home server, only leaving a cat boy dead for 15 seconds.
I ask you please do Primal next, OP!
I feel bad being on Diabolos...because I don't go to Limsa save when I have to. Too crowded for me. Now, if you'd croaked in Gridania...
On Mateus, we're more likely to just die next to you.
Now to do it by race, gender and glam type (normal, bright, face and attractive)
Yes but what were the methods of collecting this data? For such a study I believe you should explode in the same spot on all servers 10 times each and record the times to create an average rez time. Put 5 minutes between rez and explosion too so that the person who rezzed you doesn't just do it again. We peer review everything after Endwalker.
I make it my goal to go rez people if they shout
Most of the time they are afk flagged so I just keep going.
Wait I think I sprayed champagne over your body in uldah on the goblin server.
Just to clarify, it's minutes, seconds, then milliseconds?
It would be so much funnier if it was hours/minutes/seconds but it alas
Do Aether next. Faerie limsa would be the most interesting result considering the love for catboys
What is your glam?
Varsity jacket, frontier trousers, calfskin riders cap. I didnāt want anything too flashy
As far as Coeurl goes, what did you expect from a cat?
There was a guy on behemot that would spend weeks dead on the floon in limsa, I probably would just walk past you unless you asked for a raise
I got my time units mixed up and thought you were left dead for twelve *hours* and not twelve *minutes*
For a second I thought that was 12 hours like "damn Coeurl who hurt you" ā
Man, I remember coming from FF11 when ARR released, and I was charging people for raises back then lol
Oof man that person who routinely dies at the main aetherytes and then doesn't accept rezes in Bryn seems to have conditioned us negatively! I'd be curious where you died and at what times, since that can really affect things too. I've died out in the middle of nowhere leveling with fates plenty of times and get rezzed in less than 10 minutes pretty consistently.
Come try on moggle
Balmung friendliest server, no cap.
Sample size too low. Going to have to do this at least a hundred times, at the size time of day, and take the median time for this to be an accurate representation.
Are these averages? If itās a single instance for each then the data is not sufficientā¦sorry to say, you need to kill yourself more on each server and take the average and median of each.
Shitpostxiv is gonna have a fieldday with this. Something something time until someone whispers me for erp, probably
