This is very nice for when you're running a long distance, but unfortunately, running into a mob or trying to run in the opposite direction switches you back to the regular camera. Is there any way to "lock" this camera mode so it doesn't turn off?
For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, try it out. I've been playing since the day this game came out and I only found out about this on accident, maybe 2-3 years ago. I've asked a few ls friends and they had no idea that this existed, so it doesn't seem very well known. I'm also assuming that this works for all systems/versions, but if for some reason you can't get this to work, maybe it's windower only? Not 100% sure.
Oh god that camera-thing was horrible XD
that camera feature is great for recording video for dramatic effect but any other situation god yes, /tableflip lol
Wow, no love for that camera view! I can see how it'd be annoying to some people... but it really works well when you're running around and are only using one hand. No, no, the other hand isn't occupied with Galkan sausage. I tend to play with my daughter on my lap, and it's a pain to use both hands.
Anyways, is there any way to lock this camera view or do I need to hit "home" every time it messes up?
Edit: I love your new avi, Josiahkf.

Can just use the first person view? Controls in the same way basicly. (Hit V with the compact setting etc)

Anyone know or has experienced a monster and your pet attacking each other? But going in circles? -_- Or a monster constantly re aligning itself by moving away the second some hits it from a certain angle? Is there a name for this?
Yes, I call it "Annoying". Always get the "Unable to see target" message -_-

Anyone else using Google Chrome having issues where youtube videos posted on this site are displayed as images instead of videos? Clicking on them results in the image disappearing and the sound playing in the background.
This has been happening since around mid January for me and I can't seem to figure out why.

If you want to have another POL account on an xbox (as if creating a mule whm), do you have to have another xbox live account as well?

Yes, but despite what Microsoft would have you believe, you only need XBox Live silver membership to play FFXI.

For what job?
Edit: If you mean for BLU then; you can try either Radiant Breath or 1000 Needles (although I wouldn't recommend Needles).
You could even try using Magic hammer.

I'm on blu and the character i'm doing it for is on SMN. I'm getting the kills just fine with seraph blade, was jw'ing if there was a way to kill mobs in mass amounts to make it faster.

Well it would go faster (even if it isn't in mass kills) For the smn to have Carbuncle use Holy Mist.
For mass kills you could do Searing Light in abyssea, provided revitalisers aren't a problem.

Yeah searing light is probably the only good option. Cap azure >>> get ISL's >>> profit

Cap azure for restore boxes and set light affinity/mab atmas, have someone take them low enough for searing light to one shot. Sounds like the fastest you're going to get.

Just do a Pseudo whisker burn, Pull mobs, sleep, BA thermal pulse, Searing Light.
Could try and fit 2 pulls in since Astral flow is 3 minutes outside of Odin/Alexander, on the second pull just do a Vanilla Thermal Pulse and/or whisker.

Question!
Does the set bonus work between Nefer Khat +1 and the Heka's Kalasiris?
I can't tell if it's glitching for me, but for some reason I'm only getting 1mp/tick from the body and nothing from the set bonus.

It's glitched at the moment. SE made a post on either the German or French forum that it will be fixed in the next update, which will take place in about a month.
