Flag pole

SDCC - San Diego

First timer at SDCC here and hoping to cosplay. One quick question: has anyone seen/ brought a flag pole? My cosplay includes a flag and I'd like it to be on a pole (no sharp edges) and not sure if it's allowed?

Macro Help

[Discussion]

I can make simple macros but is there a way to macro UI positioning so I can swap a 'battle' UI (ie hotbars closer to middle of the screen) from an 'idle' UI (hotbars docked at the sides) to look at pretty things?

A bit technical: I recently bought a second graphics card and tried SLI on XIV. So far it is working great - constant 60 fps on all areas at maximum setting running in 4K. Except in dungeons when I enter any boss "room", the fps dips to 40 and caps there - every.single.boss.

Surely it is a quirk? Anyone noticed anything? I understand that my setup is pretty rare: 980 Ti x 2 on 4K (second monitor at 1440) but maybe other setups have the same quirk too? Using fraps to monitor the fps. Getting smooth 60s even in crowded areas like Idyll and flying high in CCH during snow storm or even S rank mayhem, no problems, just the boss fights... trash pulls still at 60 outside the rooms. WHY?!

Thanks

Probably been asked a million times but my partner and I planning to attend for the atmosphere and 'been there done that' factor (even planning a simple cosplay) so which days will be the most suitable for us? I've heard that Saturday is super crazy and the lines go on for miles. We certainly don't want to spend our time in lines - there isn't a particular thing we could justify hours lining up for.

Thurs/ Fri would be a better choice?

I got 100% completion about 2 months ago so I stopped playing - booted it up again to test out a mod and... BB was covered in blood and his horns grew! I am very sure he was 'good' when I left him because I took screenshots of the 100% completion caption etc. So how did he turn evil? is it because of defending online FOBs? or a glitch?

I've cleared Rav Ex twice but still very unclear about the double prey mechanic and how people (read: DF pugs) are handling it these days.

As I understand, if I am preyed, I stand at A or C while the rest hangs out at B and the tanks take it off me. Or do I pass it to them and they run to A or C. If I pass it to the tanks at A or C, where do I run to after that? to B? what happens with the purple circles?

Also they call DPSA, DPSB etc at the start - which phase is that for? thx for helping - I watched some vids but it's not explained very well...

When I SCH, I'm pretty much in Cleric unless I really, really have to manually heal. Recently I found that, for example if I queued up Broil, Broil, Cleric off, Adlo, Physick, I would end up with Cleric'd heals, dafuqqqqq. It never used to be like this.

I thought my button presses were becoming too fast so I created a macro with echo: Stance Swap <se.10> and saw it went off but still stuck in Cleric in some instances. I discussed it with a WHM guildmate and he said he has been noticing it too. Anyone else having the same problem?

Update: I've tested it further, using macro'd Echo Cleric, normal Cleric, Cleric with WTFast running, Cleric on wifi, Cleric on wired connection, Cleric at

Seeking a HUGE axe with chains around it (and maybe blood, not sure) - I cannot find it anywhere... Can someone help because I want to glamour it to my current axe... I know Atma/Animus axe has blood on it but there are no chains. I am pretty sure I have seen it somewhere or am I imagining it?

I bought the Prima e-guide to use on my iPad but I'm finding it hard to use due to branching paths and finding what I want. Also the descriptions aren't that detailed. I was wondering if anyone bought the physical version and if you can upload a few pics of, say, the initial Concord walkthrough so I can compare with my e-guide. If they are vastly different, it might help me decide to go get the physical book - thanks so much in advance!

So I've been collecting Red Scrips with my fully melded MIN and BTN- and buying Rowena's tokens. Have yet to spend any because well, I'm not sure what to buy. Here's my dilemma:

  1. I'm not looking to make gil through gathering - I'm just doing it because it's there to be done - so I feel like don't really need the Red Scrip gear, for now.

  2. I thought of buying FSH gear because I don't have a melded set for FSH (still with melded Forager gear/ Lucis) but I need counterfoil to get those gear which means I need to craft/buy another 60 set and meld it enough to make the counterfoil cap.

  3. Also found out recently (don't ask...) that I can get a crafted set that looks exactly like the Red Scr
