FFXIV Exploit – Injection and insta levels using WPE and packets

Monday, October 14th, 2013

ffxiv-exploit
There is a major leak going around that shows you how you can easily hack the ffxiv database and get easy levels. This involves duping a levequest infinite times for fast levels, gil, and items. It takes a little bit setup and it definately is not for the feint of heart. It will prob get your account banned, but TONS of people are using this FFXIV dupe right now and leveling to 50 in a matter of minutes. For more information, check out the post over at:

Link to FFXIV Dupe over at www.taultunleashed.com

Using this hack, you download an app called WPE Pro. You then turn in some levequests and grab the packets needed. Repeat the packets you saved and BAM, the game server keeps giving you the quest reward over and over and over.

There are more hacks coming out every day for this game. Just last week they plugged a hole where you could buy an item from a vendor, change it to gold and sell it back. WOW, simply crazy that their database is so unchecked for ffxiv dupes like this. What is worse, is ffxiv was told about the ffxiv dupe since version 1.0. And here we are in 2.0 ARR a couple of months in, and it was JUST fixed last week.

The above hack where you dupe levelquests wont last long. And again, you will prob get banned for doing so, but many RMT people are making alot of money by selling their billions of gil while the getting is good.

As always, I hope you enjoyed this fine release from the TU Guys!

FFXIV Harvesting Bot – Showing off MMOViper

Monday, October 14th, 2013

They have been putting out quite a few updates over at www.mmoviper.com. Check out this latest video they have made. It shows how you can harvest (mining, botany) using viper. You can be up and running in about 5 minutes because of their pre-made campaigns. They have all campaigns from level 1-50 all included on their forums for both mining and botany. This is great to level your player AND get easy mats for your synth. Users claim they can make about 900k in a day easily just by harvesting and synthesizing what they made and put it up on the AH. Here is a video showing how you can make your own harvesting routine, but its MUCH easier to just download one of the pre-made ones on their forums.

FFXIV Crafting Bot – Showing off MMOViper

Monday, October 14th, 2013

The guys over at www.mmoviper.com have released their crafting bot for FFXIV. With the bot you can easily (within 5 minutes) have a crafting bot up and synthesizing all night long for you. This synth bot is easy to set up. You just tell it what you want to craft, how many times, and what buttons you want to press during the synthesis. And let the bot do the rest. They even have it so that you can repair your gear after the crafting session, or during the crafting session. One user posted his setup that will craft 150 times, then repair, then craft another 150 times!

Its pretty easy, check out this setup video:

FFXIV Bot – MMOViper bot updated for ARR

Sunday, August 25th, 2013

MMOViper Bot has been updated for Final Fantasy XIV:ARR. Yep, simply amazing! They have done it yet again.

I never thought the viper bots could get any better, but boy was I wrong. Now the new updated FFXIV Bot is fully background operational. That means that you can watch TV, YouTube, Surf, etc all while the bot is running.

So what is this bot? Well its a FFXIV Harvesting Bot, and FFXIV Hunting Bot all rolled into one.

1. Setup hunting patrols:

You define where, what, how to fight and let it go. It will fight all night long hunting over and over gaining you levels and gil. It only takes about 5 mins to download and get up a working patrol. It has extreme customization. You can define exactly how you want it fight from what spells to use, to how you heal yourself. Add in specific mobs to fight to avoid those that are too hard for you, and let’er rip.

2. Setup harvesting patrols

With this version (unlike the 1.0 version) you can setup fully automated harvesting patrols. It will find a open node, like say a Mineral Deposit, and harvest it. It will then find another one, move to it, and harvest that one too. And it will just KEEP going. It will gain levels so fast, it will make your head spin. Easily pay for itself within just a few days.

3. Radar. You can see a radar on the game to see what is around you and where. Just check out this picture!

FFXIV-Radar

 

What else could it have?
Well it will rez and resume after you die. You can have it stop after a number of deaths. You can customize clicks so you could setup a repeatable quest and have it run that quest over and over. There is so much in there, its hard to put it all down here. Why not check it out for yourself.

FFXIV Marauder

Wednesday, July 10th, 2013

“Marauders are fearsome front line combatants whose arsenal of actions enables them to strengthen their offensive and defensive prowess, whichever the situation demands. Charging into battle with a massive axe, the marauder quickly draws the attention of enemies, and turns their attacks against them.”

Last month I informed you about the new FFXIV Pugilist Class. Continuing with the Disciples of War, today I bring you the FFXIV Marauder Class and overview. This is yet another class type from Square Enix in their epic overhaul of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn upcoming release, announced for late august 2013.

Keep in mind during this topic that everything herein is subject to change. While I do not foresee much changing in the near future, if anything does, don’t fret, I will keep this post updated with the most up to date information all the way to release.

FFXIV-A-Realm-Reborn-marauder

 

So what is this FFXIV Marauder class? Its a warrior class that uses a giant 2 handed axes for sheer cleaving power. This heavily armored class can take the punches and respond in kind. This class really starts to shine while taking on multiple foes at once. While the class does not incorporate a shield, you are a little less defended than say the FFXIV Gladiator. But, what you lack in defense, you more than make up for in sheer damage dealing.

  • Once you reach level 30 Marauder and level 15 Gladiator you can acquire the job of Warrior.

Here are the current ability and trait breakdown for the Marauder FFXIV class.

FFXIV Pugilist Class Breakdown

Monday, April 22nd, 2013

Sunday I informed you about the new FFXIV Gladiator Class. Continuing with the Disciples of War, today I bring you the FFXIV Pugilist Class and overview. This is yet another class type from Square Enix in their epic overhaul of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn upcoming release sometime later this year in late 2013.

So what is this FFXIV Pugilist class? Its a warrior class that loves to use his hands and punch you in the face!

Keep in mind during this topic that everything herein is subject to change. While I do not foresee much changing in the near future, if anything does, don’t fret, I will keep this post updated with the most up to date information all the way to release.

As you probably have guessed, the FFXIV Pugilist class is a hand to hand combat specialization of the stereotypical warrior class. Usual armaments will include various types of knuckles made from steel, bone, or whatever else the Pugilist can find laying around. Because this class has a increased damage per second (DPS) potential, it will also have a reduced “tank” potential. There will always give and take to keep classes balanced.

If you are familiar with the original FFXI mmorpg by the same company, you will not be surprised to find that the FFXIV Pugilist will eventually lead to the Monk Job specialization. I will go into a lot more detail on advanced jobs, but for now here are the main jobs that will become available with the Pugilist as a base:

  • Monk – Available at Pugilist level 30 and Archer level 15
  • Dragoon – Available at Lancer level 30 and Pugilist level 15
  • Black Mage – Available at Thaumaturge level 30 and Pugilist level 15 (dont figgure, just accept it)

So to summarize, if you like to be up in the opponents face, but do not like the play-style of a typical tank, then maybe a FFXIV Pugilist is for you!

Here are the current abilities and traits for the Pugilist class:

FFXIV Gladiator Class Breakdown

Saturday, April 20th, 2013

Yesterday I enlightened you with the basics of FFXIV Classes and Jobs paradigm in Square Enix‘s upcoming re-release of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. Keep those discussions and comments coming as that is what will drive me to keep expanding on the inner workings and requirements of each job and class that FFXIV has to offer.

Today, we are going to dive right into the Gladiator Class. Keep in mind that we are still in Beta Phase 2 and some of the finer details might change slightly over time as the game gets closer to release. When and if that happens, I will edit this post and try to the best of my abilities to keep the most up to date information.

The FFXIV Gladiator Class is pretty much what it sound like. Bash and Crunch first, and ask questions later. This is your typical warrior style class. If we trace the roots of gladiators back in history, they were the fighting slaves in the coliseums with a sword and shield battling for the amusement of the onlookers in ancient Rome. FFXIV Gladiators will resemble this ancient style of fighting. With the increased shield defense, they naturally fall into a “tank” style of play. According to the FFXIV website, some will have a taunt ability to keep all of his opponents attentions on him and away from the lesser defended friends he might be playing with.

While some of the other classes may not be as straight forward, the FFXIV Gladiator is a warrior tank. In all mmorpg’s there are always tanks at the front of the battle taking hit after hit time and time again. While they may not dish out the most damage, they will definitely TAKE the most damage and stay alive.

As of this writing, it is assumed that the FFXIV Gladiator class will be required for 3 advanced jobs that can be acquired at level 30. (Remember you can always switch classes just by changing weapons) These advanced jobs are as follows:

  • Paladin – Available at Gladiator level 30 and Conjurer level 15
  • Warrior – Available at Marauder level 30 and Gladiator level 15
  • White Mage – Available at Conjurer level 30 and Gladiator level 15 (I know it doesn’t make sense to me either)

Check back often to see the other classes and jobs that FFXIV has to offer.

So is this your class of choice? What advanced jobs will you take first? I look forward to discussions, post below your thoughts and what you will be playing in the comments below!

Here are the current abilities and traits for the Gladiator class:

FFXIV Classes and Jobs

Saturday, April 20th, 2013

As you are aware, FFXIV is launching a new 2.0 version of itself called Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn (FFXIV). Some of you may have questions about some of the terms that are used in the game. I know that Square Enix does a fairly decent job describing things, but some people are still wondering exactly what FFXIV Classes and FFXIV Jobs are.

So, I thought I’d spend a few minutes and help you out. This post will just cover the basics. I will go into more detail later in later posts describing each in separate posts later. But for now, lets get a handle on exactly what the differences in FFXIV classes and jobs are. Each day this week, I will be adding a new topic or detailed ffxiv guide explaining in full detail the types of play that the new game is trying to achieve. As always if you have questions or comments, post them below.

FFXIV Classes and Jobs

So, first, lets go into eactly what is a class and a job. Usually these are the same thing in most mmorpg games. And you would be right in thinking so.. There was even a time where the FFXIV Live team wanted to get rid of both and put it all in the same category, but the man himself Yoshi-P put out a letter detailing that the distinction would remain. And I for one am glad he did.

There are four different classes in FFXIV.

  • Disciples of War – These are the masters of weapons and combat
  • Disciples of Magic – These are the magic users, casters, etc.
  • Disciples of the Hand – These are the cafters
  • Disciples of the Land – These are the gatherers.

With this in mind the FFXIV classes available so far are:

Disciple of War include:

Disciples of Magic include:

  • Arcanist
  • Conjurer
  • Thaumaturge

I wont list them all right now as we will be going over them in full detail in the coming days but this gives you a good idea of what to expect. Keep in mind also, that you are NOT locked into one class. You can change at any time, just by switching your weapon of choice. Now, once you do swap a weapon you start out at level 1 in that new class and you have to level up that class as you would any other. But hey, no more creating 10 different characters just to level them all up. Here its one character for everything. Rather nice no?

Here is where things start to get interesting. Some of the abilities from one class can meld over to another. For instance, if you are leveling up both a archer and a conjurer, you can mix and match some of their skills and abilities even while adventuring in a different class! Again, we’ll go into much more detail later, but for now, remember this post called FFXIV Classes and Jobs.

Moving on to Jobs. A job is a specific version so to speak of a class. At release there will only be 1 job for 1 class, but Yoshi-P has alluded that they plan to add multiple jobs for each class in the near future as they add in more content.

So lets take a closer look at a job. Mystra loves Bards. Can she play one? Yes. She starts out as a Archer but after a few levels she will get the option to upgrade to the Bard job. But what does that mean? We’ll get into the specifics later, but for now it means that she will get access to Bard specific spells and abilities but will limit here interaction with other classes. She might not be able to use some of here conjurer spells like she used too. Keep in mind that this is entirely optional. She does not HAVE to become a Bard. She can continue leveling as a archer with some conjurer abilities. This is usually better when soloing, but as you get into raiding and dungeons your group will start calling for some very job specific needs.

Just remember you can always switch back just by swapping weapons you change back to different classes.

Is it starting to make sense?

It is strange until you start playing a little, then these things will become more familiar. Keep checking back over the next few days and I will go over all of the ffxiv classes and jobs that you will be able to play.

If you know what class you will be starting out as, please post in the comments below. I’d like to hear why you like that class!

 

 

 

FFXIV Bot – Final Fantasy XIV Bot for Leveling, Hunting, Farming

Tuesday, December 14th, 2010

Tired of the grind? Tired of endless hours and hours of hunting the same mobs over and over until your fingers hurt?

Well look no further. Introducing the worlds first ffxiv bot from MMOViper Bots. This is a all in one hunting, leveling, farming bot for final fantasy 14. It will hunt, patrol, search and destroy all in the area that you define. Make your patrol large, or make it small. You decide where to hunt, and what to kill. This makes it really nice for those zones that have super high level mobs intermixed with the ones your level. This is what separates the ffxiv bot at mmoviper from all of the other ffxiv bots that they may invent in the future. Customization. That is the key.

FFXIV BotsAlso, you can specify what spells to use, when to use them, and how often. Play your class like it was intended, rather than just randomly spamming keys that I have seen in other bots for other games. Need to heal at 50% life, not a problem with this final fantasy xiv bot. What about using all of those fancy spells that require TP? Also included.

It will hunt and fight until it dies. And then guess what happens? It will rez itself, and go back into the fray! That is right, it will rez, wait for the death effects to wear off, and then go right back to hunting.

Finally, there is player detection included in the ff14 bot. If somebody is following you around too long, or hunting in the same area as you are, it will avoid them. And if they keep doing it, it will log out. All customizable of course, if you are hunting in a known highly populated area, you can easily turn off these features and the ffxi bot will happily just keep botting away.

With something like this, you can make literally thousands of gil while you sleep. Level faster, Make money, all while you sleep.ffxiv radar ffxiv bot
As an added bonus, there is a full functional radar included. While this is nice, the real benefits are from being able to find harvesting nodes at a glance, rather than having to keep spamming the find node spell in game. You can see the nodes on screen with the radar running.

So let me recap.
