Being Saleh: It's Not On Patch 2.2


The Sahagins has succeeded on summoning Leviathan as the next (hard) loot pinata, and so begins the lord of the whorl's saga (beside another plot twist). Patch 2.2 hits Eorzea a week ago and by my judgement (after playing it for twenty hours or so) it's.... enjoyable but I'm not here to talk about the things I enjoy, today I want to talk about everything not in this patch

Everything else vs mount
I dislike dismounting from my mount to talk to a vendor or quest NPC, or to teleport, or just to do anything, yes it's only a click away and give immersions in RPer's POV, and I agree not letting mounts inside capital cities, but really? every single time? they should make an auto-dismount option when they do anything, just an option so people can choose whether they want to manually dismounted or just automatically did it, I have heard reason that it was deemed exploitable but honestly that is up to SE to think a way out of this.

Cross-Server Duty Finder
My Free Company is a casual one, meaning we didn't even finish everything that patch 2.1 has to offer, and since we're small (like in a miniscule sense of view) and never not always online together so I spend my new nights searching for another clueless people on duty finder, but here's the thing: I played on a japanese server since their ping is more stable and below 200-ish, and I'm a tank so it's usually an insta-que IF I select all the language available, but Leviathan encounter needs clueless people to TALK to each other and guess what? I don't speak japanese and won't pretend that I do so I'm left with my 120 mins (and counting) DF queue, why? there's no cross server Duty Finder, it only search people from a cluster of Japanese Data Center server who queued with English as language selected

it's not mine!!
Oh yeah I'm sure I can watch youtube to learn the encounter and pretend I spoke japanese and after several wipe we could finally beaten it with the newly implemented Echo system (like those WoW fail buffs :P), but really? Moogle King was my evidence

Challenge Log
Oh wait it's in the patch, and I love it, I'll talk about it another time :D
