Still thinking of buying the game. I'm currently have NA account, may deleted the account after Phase 4 and create an EU account after that.

I think ur friend log in to Square Enix Members not account.

Thou if u try log in account management it will redirect you to the proper region

you meant FF14:ARR?
if yes, then you need to wait after the OBT when the early access is available to those who bought it (most probably after the OBT). If you buy frm GMG, then they should show you a line like this:
You will need an active Square Enix account to complete the process so, if you want to set one up in advance, please go here: http://eu.square-enix.com/en/seaccount.

when the game allows you to register the code, then it will show you how to complete it.. In the mean time, everyone is still trying to cure their withdrawal symptom.. lmao..

Check my first post pls.. im not saying to pay with Euro, Euro is expensive. I'm asking u guys to register EU region UK Country. which will pay in GBP and save RM3-4.00 thant USD.
I think you're friend is confuse, can please tell me where he get his Beta Key? and what is his Account information is?

Did he log in via http://account.square-enix.com ?

i think u should read my previous post. ur friend will hav problem with the game as it launches

It's optional, you change job by equiping a job crystal that you unlock. and btw, do you understand what skill bard has? it's still a dps job.
well, if you search the beta forum on bard, if you have some spare time i mean, it is known that bard songs are quite useless atm. However, they are still doing good damage as a long range shooter. I believe when you equip the bard crystal, you'll lose some % of damage but from bard passive trait it's gain back.. something like that so basically, bard are still doing same damage as archer, but with additional song support skills.

Now this is what I hope, and actually I think will eventually happen to archer. That they'll branch out to ranger, dedicated long range type of dps with more attacking skill.

You can create and save the appearance to be used on the P4 later.

Character creator benchmark only save appearance. It does not book names.

1 question regarding the beta invites
I'm not sure which beta I sign up for whether is eu or na
So when it comes to registering the act will I still be able to use eu or I must use na

Mine using i5 2500K only but same GFX card
