>>>/vg/ is that way, make your general there with the other schizo posters
As soon as all the other games and franchises that get multiple threads here are also banished to /vg/. You DO enforce your rules equally and without bias, don't you?
well you see super smash bros is a CULTURAL PHENOMENON so it's okay
okay pedo
>pedo
you rang?
Janitor applications are closed.
I believe in Elezen supremacy
So is this just Endwalker General without actually bring in the general?
if you spent a minute on the /vg/ XIV general you'd understand why the sane posters choose to spend their time here instead
I’ll keep this in mind, anons. What could possibly go wrong?
you mean you don't like shitcord namegay drama, and avatargayging from ERPing degenerates?
I don't think those guys actually play the game, sitting around in limsa or balmung quicksands isn't playing the game
Of course not, generals aren't allowed here, and we would never break the rules
After all, we greatly respect the hard work our industrious janitors put in for the good of the board and wouldn't ever do anything that might hurt their feelings
no this is just another thread for the cultural phenomenon that is FFXIV.

A reminder that thanks to the MSQ changes in ARR Lahabrea is the first being to canonically kill the Warrior of Light.
What?
Lahabrea is now a 1-v-1 battle, and halfway through it he nukes the WoL and leaves them laying dead on the floor. Hydaelyn has to personally resurrect WoL to continue the fight.
They should this with Thordan too but without removing the original trial or making this harder, it is a joke the final boss of the first expansion does his ultimate attack with all the knights of the round and barely damages you and the battle ends in less than 5 minutes
>raidtroony emergency maintenance

Its to fix the crashes
no one was crashing
Every group i was in for 2 days had a crash, people complaining about crashes in shout chat in cities. Yes they were
I was crashing too. Do you mod or use a bot too
My static didn't encounter any crashes at all, but none of us use mods either.

It might just be for the omicron tribe quests in .25 but its very deliberate either way.

you didn't clear, b***h
Yes, unless they give me an option to disable the automatic camera turn bullshit when using legacy mode and other general QoL stuff, I will use plugins.
>unless they give me an option to disable the automatic camera turn bullshit when using legacy mode
What do you mean? Like pressing A/D to turn camera?
If that, then just bind A/D to strafe
I've been playing on legacy for literally 9 years and I don't know what else you could mean by that
Binding A/D to strafe slows you down when backpedaling diagonally and limits your ability to dodge gazes without turning the camera.
>down when backpedaling diagonally
Don't backpedal diagonally then
>limits your ability to dodge gazes without turning the camera.
So turn your camera
All of these are non-issues
t. quad legend on legacy
>this limits your movement
>just don't do those movements then
OK.
Or I could just use the plugin to lock my camera instead and not give up movement to get around something that should have been added 5 years ago.
Limits your movement if you refuse to use your mouse to move your camera for some reason, yeah
Which takes .1 seconds and isn't an issue in literally any shape or form
>move my camera, press S
>no need for diagonal movement
>Limits your movement
OK. Glad we agree. I will continue to not arbitrarily limit my movement and camera control for no reason. You are free to continue doing so even though it is the objectively worse choice.
nta but there are people that clear ultimates with clicks alone. just because you can clear harder content with your unnecessarily inconvenient control scheme, doesn't mean it's good.
What's the plug-in called btw
Simple Tweaks, under "Legacy Camera Lock"
You also don't really need it, you can just click or use a hold click macro to lock your camera without it, it's just convenient. You can also do what the other anon did and gimp your movement with strafe on A/D if you don't mind having to adjust for that and giving up a bit of camera control and movement for it, but I don't like to do that personally.
Thanks, I'm just curious to see if I like it or not. Won't hurt to try
I don't see why you wouldn't since it just makes it so that your camera doesn't move unless you tell it to. Hell people complained enough about the same issue with Elden Ring that Fromsoft actually fixed it yet it's still a thing in XIV for some reason. I'm guessing it's mostly because the majority of the playerbase didn't think to immediately go into the options menu when they started playing and just put up with tank controls until they got used to it.
>automatic camera turn bullshit when using legacy mode
Just use strafe instead of side running moron. I don't even have this fricking problem because I have a button on my mouse set up to lock the right click down.
not him but that plugin is really nice on controller since you cant strafe on controller while using legacy (unless you lock on which is terrible)
>my natural OG AST training prevents me from ever choking
pray thee return to getting thy shit together
I don't use any plugins other than simpletweaks for the legacy camera lock but I'm going to miss having my giant titty mods. Although I suppose I could just use textools until they're back.
Are plug-ins mods? I don’t play on PC, but I’ve heard a little about plugins being used sometimes by players
plugsins can be a lot of things, but for raidtrannies plugins means shit that will hold your hand through raids by doing stuff like tell you where to stand to do mechanics.
People look down on those guys. Only plugins I use for raids are the waymark editor and death recap
Sorta yes, sorta no. Plugins are the same thing as the user-made addons for nearly every MMO released since 2001, but using them requires a third-party launcher for the game. SE doesn't support them and theoretically bans for them, but it's fight club rules so keeping your mouth shut ensures smooth sailing. Mods require a different program to manage, and are all about changing models/textures/ability visual effects, and so on. Realistically they're mostly used by coomers to make the girls in the game sexier, as well as some very heavily altered setups for use with dedicated erp.
Yes, full stop. They all modify the game in some way (even very minor QoL shit), therefore they're mods.
The only one I'm using is the one that put a little dot at your character feet to represent your hitbox because I play a male roe.

Leveilleur Pizza
>Japanese pizza
I'm from NY so I'm a complete pizza snob. No way their pizza is good
Well you already like shit pizza so it shouldn't be a problem
easy there guy. lets not get crazy
Pizza connoisseur here, it's pretty good. Scott Oelkers revolutionized Asian Pizza. You should know that the key part of pizza is the type of water used and where it came from. So for example, never get a pizza from India.
>love pizza
>used to live in the not-shit part of California where the water was great (the part the shit part of California stole all their water from after squandering theirs)
>had great pizza places everywhere
>forced to move to Florida
>pizza places are all total dogshit becausee the water is 80% chemical plant runoff and heavy metals
I fricking hate this shit state. But at least I don't have to deal with Californians anymore.
Tell me more pizza facts. How do I find the best pizza per state?
9/10 a chain Pizza place is gonna suck compared to local business. And that's mainly because the chain pizza gets their ingredients delivered to them and is from mass production processors and farms (so the core ingredients itself are going to suck no matter what you do). Locals are going to buy from either a grocery or from local farms. If you see a pizza place that says they get their ingredients locally, it's a good chance to be good. Also if you can, peek into their cooking kitchen. If it's clean, it'll be good. If you see grease or dirt or God forbid, rats; get out and never return. There is a chance a chain place will be good, but that's entirely a gamble pending on the manager and who they hire.
The choices of what you have on pizza doesn't matter, that's all to individual taste. And as always, cooking it yourself is the priority.
Also, something I wanted to add for frozen pizza. There is no difference for frozen french bread pizza, they all use the same core things, so always go for the cheaper deal.
>the George Lucas retcon picture is correct about Naboo having the best pizza
Neat
oh my god that is why I could never find a decent pizza place in san francisco for 4 years. frick that city in a lot of ways but bad pizza is the biggest
Yes, that is exactly why. Fun fact, that's why some italian pizza places import water from Italy, to get the authentic taste.

And that's why Feo Ul is in the punishment jar
>can give dreams of any depraved fetish you might have
Befriending her was really the endgame.
One of the dumbest things about ShB (and to be clear, I loved ShB), was that for some reason the WoL was written as if they found Feo Ul to be an annoyance they didn't want to deal with.
Every single time you run into a situation where it was incredibly obvious that they should ask Feo Ul for help, they instead ran around and tried practically every other option before calling out to her with a huge reluctance. And then no matter how many times she outright told us how bad our treatment of her made her feel, we still did absolutely nothing to improve that going forwards.
She's been nothing but a help and a blessing for us, we really should treat her much better. Similar with how rude the Scions were to the Lopporits.

She literally created all the female characters worth shit besides Ysayle.
Could be that the Fae Folk are generally a pain in the ass to deal with in the first place, granted Feo is one of the easier to work with one's, she is a bit obsessive.
Also it would be a bit boring storywise if you just called on her to solve all your issues, sort of a "why didn't the eagles just fly the Hobbits to mount doom" situation
every part of shadowbringers that deals with the fae makes it clear that they're a huge pain in the ass and trying to deal with them is a good excuse to either being led to an ironic death or just a lot of busywork + wol is having a bad day

if p6s is easier than p5s in pf how cum there's barely anyone on p7s...........
because devour is filtering 90% of pf and the few that are doing p6s are getting filtered by cachexia
Because they're either all in 7S already or on 8S.
1st Cachexia doesn't seem too bad but PF is using some weird strat that seems like it'll be easy for the 8s to get clipped by the 20s explosion.
Is señor cactus emote worth it? Can you hold that position?
I'm going to say it
Hephaistos II sucks
>
The entire raid sucks ever since they dropped the movie monster/vampire gimmick. Behemoth part 30 followed by 2 tree monsters and then ANOTHER FLAME BOSS was lame.
its even easier then p4s phase 2
is that why it took longer than the entire last tier alone
phase 1 is the one that took a lot of time. Phase 2 was a breeze once they found what does every marker does. The last 40% of his health is just a zerg while he spam SINGLE CHARACTER TOWERS
Post your clear video
I'm disappointed it is another fight where boss positioning is not a thing.
t. phys tranged
Positional are on the way out, they've consistently been made less important and given more and more ways to ignore them
>more and more ways to ignore them
I miss my 40 seconds of True North from 5.0
NIN is the only class that should have positionals. Mainly because of backstab for classic rogue feel
MONK having positions is moronic. You're a big burly fighter, why do you need to attack from behind or the side.
Cause you'll look like a fool if you're up front next to the tank
>Monk is a big burly fighter
not in this game, most of the monks are agile martial artists
cause monk is inspired by anime kung fu like DBZ,
People wanting positionals are holding the game back, I'm tired of it. Make more wall bosses, make more Hippokampus bosses, whatever they need to do to just fricking get rid of positionals. If you complain about bland boss design, 99% of it time it because of it being designed with positionals in mind
this. phoinix was such a braindead fricking shitshow compared to hippo because positionals made it a face north tank n spank boss
this, i was actually pretty sad that the new EX had positionals with how much she turns everywhere, wonder what more they couldve done with her if they decided to remove positionals from the fight.
I prefer another boss like the big dragon in a realm reborn or extreme seiryu

So is our Lahabrea the evil Hephaistos clone broken free or the kid.who grows upt o be an edgelord.
I would not be surprised if it's actually the clone that becomes ours.
It's clearly not the kid because the kid is brown as frick and our Lahabrea isn't
Hephaistos is also a brownie
It's Vitiligo. Lah(ehe)abrea
homie our Lahabrea was Thancred. The body he had in Heavensward wasn't his original body either.
So far the only Ancients we've met who made any sort of effort at all to project the image of what they were before the sundering were Emet and Venat.
Well, and Elidibus in hindsight. Since his original form just looks like a twinkie not-Amano version of the Warrior of Light.
None. It's someone completely unrelated. The entire Pandaemonium series is a red herring and the real Lahabrea is the one to replace the old man Lahabrea in the questline after he perishes alongside his son and schizo clone.
But we know our Lahabrea is the one who created the Phoinix, and the Phoinix already exists at the time of us fricking around in Pandaemonium so clearly it can't be a Lahabrea that comes after this point
>someone completely unrelated that coincidentally also has Char's voice
It's re-merged Lahabrea instead of self-lobotomized Lahabrea
Game developers actually tend to work later in the day to begin with because reasons, but nobody gets to fricking go home either way.

>Had a nice chat with an anon.
>Maintenance happens.
Shame too, I was having a good time. Watch the maintenance be about something completely worthless 🙂 . I guess it at least let me get some work I neglected due to the tier so far done.
Yeah I was having a nice conversation in the Azim Steppe right before maintenance too.
I wish they'd just do it early in the morning instead.
>I wish they'd just do it early in the morning instead.
>America is the middlepoint of the universe
>you have to do maintenance on all regions at the exact same time
Also your argument is moronic because it was 3 PM in Japan when maintenance started, which is highly inconvenient for them as well.
>>you have to do maintenance on all regions at the exact same time
Yes?
Who the frick is gonna be in the office to do maintenance during NA morning? lol
Gee I dunno, who is going to be doing the maintenance at 7PM?
If they're already having someone do it outside office hours why not do it at a time convenient for the playerbase?
Maintenance is during Japanese work hours because shockingly you need Japanese people working to do maintenance on this Japanese game.
3-7PM is not Japanese work hours though?
Do you not even know what time zone Japan is in?
japs work til 8 or 9pm
Do you not know about Japanese work habits?
Then what does that have to do with my original point? You're just arguing for the sake of arguing at this point, typical obsessed euroschizo behavior.
Yeah it is my dad works for maintenance
>Maintenance is during Japanese work hours because shockingly you need Japanese people working to do maintenance on this Japanese game.
Western developers in North America, especially for MMOs, also tend to do maintenance in the wee hours of the morning.
It has nothing to do with when the work day is and everything to do with impacting as few players as possible.
For much of North America taking shit down when they do isn't that bad. People who work mornings will need to go to bed soon anyway and people who work night shifts will already be working if not getting ready to work. It's a school night so younger players will also need to log off.
People in Japan are either still working or just getting home. They can spend a little time with their families and eat dinner before the servers are back up and they can play.
Most people are playing at 8PM anon.
You might have a point if you were going by eastern hours.
idk man, Border Break is nippon onry and always does its maintenance at 3pm JST.
Yes.
>America is the middlepoint of the universe
You are revealing FFXIV's ending
One day they'll put it in useless hours, The servers are on the west coast so 2-5am ain't the worst time for it. Good luck with 6s anon, and if your group ends up having issues with cachexia 2 just like tank lb it, much less of an issue incoming damage wise and the DPS check is a meme. 7s is gonna be a riot with my static, but I have like the entire day to redo 6s on my alt, so its gonna be fun regardless, I'm proud of the newbies I'm helping out, they got carb down so quick, with very little help callout wise.
Thanks, good luck with PF, though it sounds like you have a good system set up for that already anyway.
Yeah, I like having a mix, and as long as you keep the good ones close, you end up having quite the community to pull when needed, worked for my DSR clear in PF and it's making the savage tier way easier.
Honestly it sounds like something I would have enjoyed doing if I had the social skills for it, but instead I just autism grind all the other casual content in downtimes between raids or mess around with mods and posing tools for coom material. I enjoy helping people but I don't think I have the charisma required to be anything other than a warm body and a big DPS number in a PF setting, not to mention I tend to overexplain things.
So how the frick did Azem know we were going to be at pandemonium? What is his end goal?
Just a prank bro
The lore is their making it all up as they go. Also Azem seems to cheat.
pandemonium is the ancients shitpost to the WoL and they are all in on it. Why else would one of the bosses just flat out be Dracula
My theory is that Azem was like I be there at like 6 but they were late and the WoL showed instead or something
Elidibus was just speaking a bit flowery
Because Azem is (you).
Azem needs to get out of my head. Shits already full.
Because Venat probably told them that they had a familiar who wanted to meet Elidibus and they were like. "I have a familiar? Lol OK sounds cool." And then went to ruin Emets day.
They? Azem and who else?
THE STRONGEST
Yes but how did he know we were going to panda to be elidibussy's "guiding light" which venat had no idea we were going to do?
Azem magic.
>There's no way this little shit won't get in hilarious amounts of trouble.
I wonder what azem's reaction was when he started to hear about a familiar that he supposedly created was traveling with emet, doing random shit in elpis, and then killing uber dangerous creatures in panda.
Jealousy that they did not get to bug Emet and kill things in Panda.
I wonder if they are ever going to address what exactly azem was doing during the final days.
My guess is Azem went exploring, found something that helped them see the future, and figured everything was going to turn out okay in the end, decided to just spend their last of their days exploring before the world blew up.
Azem would see the Sundered as people whose lives have value though. He rescued the written off animal inhabitants of an island doomed to be destroyed by a volcanic eruption for instance, just because he's a nice guy. Unless everything playing out as it did was the only way "he" could stop Meition and make humanity WALK he would be agonised by the gorillians on the Source and the reflections who died from the calamities.
>Switches "job stones" to swap between ARC, WAR, DRG, MNK, SAM, BLK, PLD, and then reveals the next job.
I doubt Venat told anyone about all this but I'd love to know who can send job stones into the sundered future with a message for us to go back into the past.
In a plothole like how tf did we go back to the past and it was meant to happen if WoL originally had died by the black Rose until another instance of Time travel saved us (G'raga)?
It's not a plot hole, XIV operates under a closed loop time travel system where introduction of a paradox is an impossibility. You cannot go back to the past to have a nice day to unmake yourself in XIV, Terminator or Legacy of Kain style, events would line up for it to not be possible, otherwise you never would have existed at all so you would be unable to travel back in time to attempt that. It's a chicken or the egg sort of problem.
Makes no sense since we already died there, how could that WoL visit Eplis if he died beforehand?
All timeliness exist but only one is the best for everyone.
You didn't die, the you from the alternate timeline did and that timeline had been abandoned in favor of yours. G'raha didn't travel back in time, he traveled to a different timeline, that sidesteps the rule because this G'raha is not an original inhabitant of that timeline. He can arrive at any point and induce meaningful changes that wouldn't be a paradox because he is not from the local future.
anon this theory doesn't work. based on your rules the 1st reflection he summons everyone too is not apart of our timeline.
Another crappy loop justfication your fricking fujo exwriter isnt a genious and endwalker was rushed
God how much damage avengers endgame did to time travel logic and lok have paradoxes and wasnt impossible Blood omen 2 existed
LoK operates under a time travel system that allows for paradoxes to occur. XIV doesn't.
My ass graha tia happened and this game changed alot since 1.0 ( ascians were supposed to be void lords) hell now lahabrea beat your ass in arr in 6.1
>ascians were supposed to be void lords
How do you know what ascians were supposed to be?
By the fact void invasions in 1.0 ending and how plainly were " dark guys", along arr, and they were unkillable elites ( the reapers like lahabrea fushion )in the dalamud event
shh. don't think about it. trust alexander. "best timeline", remember? oh wait..
Because that one Graha abandoned is the best timeline and we are in the failed branch.
>mfw we're getting a 7.0 graphics update because they're about to 1.0 destroy the world again to justify it
I'd sure hate it if someone from that doomed timeline showed up.
Timeline looks like this
When does red ever happen?
On the worldline where the events at Elpis played out without the Warrior of Light.
I mean I read that, but when was there evidence that this ever happened?
It happened on another attractor field considering there are likely many attractor fields where the WOL dies before the Final Days even happen (which in turn may ironically avert the Final Days since they only happen because Zodiark is killed by the WOL).
Zodiark is killed by Fandaniel, but whether Fandaniel arose as a result of WoL's actions and ascians awakening more and more lesser ascians in desperation in order to stop you is debatable. For all we know, Fandaniel might be a constant that always occurs. If we take WoL out of the equation and assume that Fandaniel always occurs, he would eventually find a way to reach Mare Lamentorum, unseal Zodiark, take possession of it, rampage across Eitherys and then commit suicide after a while, kickstarting the Final Days once again.
Fancy Dan can't do shit while Emet and Elidibus are still around
With enough effort and planning he could probably do something, but yeah, I kind of forgot that while Elidibus is piloting Zodiark he is unable to do shit.
That actually makes more sense than it should at a first glance, well reasoned, anon.
Right, which is likely how our worldline came to be in the first place. In some unknown attractor field Fandaniel found a way to trigger the Final Days and in an effort to stop it someone discovered the cause of the final days, and used the CT to send the WOL back to Elpis causing the creation of the loop and the alpha worldine. However as we see with the Black Rose worldline, that worldine would continue until the Final Days successfully ended the universe as they would have simply created the Alpha worldline while theirs "continued".
For all we know, the Alpha worldline would just be the Ascians completing the rejoining some thousand years in the future and just ended up dead ending like the Ra La civilization
I used "alpha" just as a label, just like with Steins;Gate we have no way to know what timeline is the true "original" timeline so we just use the "alpha" label to refer to the timeline where the apocalypse was averted.
the "alpha" worldline is the one we're on right now. There presumably are other worldlines where the Ascians succeeded after the death of or in spite of the WOL and completed the rejoining, but we have no way to speculate on what the ultimate fates of those timelines is other than that it's likely not a good one, as we know the Ascians fully having their way either leads to death by Meteion or death by Ra-La.
IIRC, Midgardsormr wakes up and heals thr world in the black rose timeline
Did they really?! He "saved" a whole timeline yet he was a no show all of Endwalker? lol
grandpa needs his nap, homosexual
Keep in mind, the Black Rose timeline canonically stabilizes thanks to the efforts of the Ironworks crew and likely survives well past the Final Days that happens in the FFXIV timeline since Fandanny and Zenos aren't around to break Zodiark's rage cage.
You need to remember the events g'raha is around for in the other timeline are hundreds of years in the future.
So no, the dragon wasn't around for EW.
If Midgar could save it from another calamity then its not technically a failed timeline despite us being dead. I wont be surprised if they pull from that timeline again.
Don't know how powerful Midgard is really in the big picture, given how he died from Garlean conventional weapon, and the Garlean wasn't even doing crazy ass homosexualry that the Allagan did when they took down Bahamut and Tiamat.
DRG 80 quest implies that Midgardsormr more or less passed the torch for protecting the star to Nidhogg before the whole Ishgard moronation set race relation back a whole millenia.
Wouldn't call it "healing the world" only that he offers protection to the survivors so that they have some kind of snowball chance in hell in the post-8th umbral calamity world.
Though in all fairness, I can't imagine the Ascian even trying to do more rejoining soon after that, seeing how they can't just throw a bunch of calamities after another and just have a dead Source with no souls to offer to Zodiark.
Not to mention that it's entirely possible that Elidibus might've gotten caught in the ground zero of Black Roses, since the implication was that it was used by the Garlemald in desperation after the tide turning from the defeat of Elidibus!Zenos in the alpha timeline.
Given the existence of Abyssea storyline in FFXI and DSR exploring what-ifs, it's entirely possible that we'll have expansion revisiting these convoluted timefrickery in the future.
That would be neat side content but I hope they don't do more time travel in the MSQ.
Textools is outdated, just learn Penumbra. There's a slightly higher learning curve but it's much better than Textools and nobody uses Textools except for development anymore.
>will I need to disable every mod whenever a patch happens? or is it every maintenance? or is that just plugins?
Textools automatically re-enables all your mods if you start it up after a patch happens and I've had no issues with it for a long time but the devs still recommend you manually disable the mods pre-patch just in case. Penumbra has no issues with updates whatsoever (other than the obvious not functioning until XIVlauncher is updated) since it injects mods instead of altering game files.
anon that would mean theres an infinite number of "attractor fields" as any point of failure could result in another timeline. This is where time travel stories always fall apart and get ridiculously convoluted.
If there's no in game evidence of another timeline in game such as the black rose timeline then it's no good to go creating one based on theories.
>anon that would mean theres an infinite number of "attractor fields"
Yeah that's how timelines work.
However the only relevant worldlines are ones where time travel is invented or ones that are created as a result of time travel since the others are inaccessible and thus effectively "what-ifs" that might as well only exist theoretically even if they do actually "exist".
>This is where time travel stories always fall apart and get ridiculously convoluted.
Not really, it only matters if you're an autist who needs pointless and extraneous details explained fully. What happened on the timeline where the WOL choked on a dodo roast during the Titan Feast is irrelevant because it clearly didn't affect any other timelines.
>If there's no in game evidence of another timeline in game such as the black rose timeline then it's no good to go creating one
Well then it's a good thing there is in game proof of there being other timelines like, specifically, the Black Rose timeline.
Yes but thats the problem with your whole theory. The black rose timeline is the only timeline with evidence of existing. Yours is made up
>The black rose timeline is the only timeline with evidence of existing. Y
We know from the Black Rose timeline existing that time travel in XIV operates on Steins;Gate rules and not Back to the Future rules where time traveling creates alternate timelines, so we also now that there must be alternate timelines for any other time travel events that happened.
We don't know any rules of XIV time travel because they haven't been established. All this talk is once again theories to try and make sense of something they haven't layed out the rules on. Basing them off other media would be unwise.
Hell the Panda castle just popped into our current timeline.
>We don't know any rules of XIV time travel because they haven't been established.
Actually we do know because they have been established. Play Shadowbringers.
I did and no we don't. If your gonna use Shadowbringers as evidence then once again there's no evidence of that timeline existing. Play Alexander
>If your gonna use Shadowbringers as evidence
what about my use shadowbringers as evidence?
Yes that's the question. What about it? It doesn't bring any evidence of that timeline existing nor the other rules of timetravel you mentioned from different media. So what about Shadowbringers are you using as evidence?
>If your gonna use Shadowbringers as evidence then once again there's no evidence of that timeline existing
Except for all of Shadowbringers and Tales from the Shadows and the Omega quests in Endwalker then yeah, if you ignore all of that, there's no evidence that other timelines exist.
Sure anon.
We aren't talking about other timelines existing in general. We are talking specifically that red timeline which has no evidence of existing. If you're using Shadowbringers as evidence the whole story takes place because of one specific timeline they evidence. The black rose one. Not the one you made up.
Omega, Tales from the Shadows, nor Endwalker have evidence of your red timeline existing either.
>We are talking specifically that red timeline which has no evidence of existing.
Besides the fact that it must exist under the rules established by Shadowbringers.
It literally isn't established at all in Shadowbringers. That's the issue I'm saying is wrong with your timeline theory.
>It literally isn't established at all in Shadowbringers
It literally is.
>That's the issue I'm saying is wrong with your timeline theory.
Well it's not an issue since Shadowbringers establishes that it's not wrong.
If you disagree you are saying that the Black Rose timeline doesn't exist, which directly contradicts canon sources from Tales from the Shadows and Endwalker sidequests.
>If you disagree you are saying that the Black Rose timeline doesn't exist
An alternate hypothesis that allows both kinds of time travel to be correct is that they didn't think about the implications when they hastily wrote the Elpis section of the MSQ, because Endwalker wasn't a very well written story.
Ahh, I see, so you're just stating that the clearly established rules don't actually exist because you want to shit on the game for no reason.
Carry on then, I didn't realize you were arguing in bad faith.
Sorry that it didn't have Zodiark Trance, truly the great tragedy of our time
>It literally is.
Ok then back to my 1st post. Where?
>If you disagree you are saying that the Black Rose timeline doesn't exist
What are you talking about? The black rose timeline exists because it evidenced in Shadowbringers. Your red timeline isn't. The red timeline is the one in question. The black rose one was never in question.
>>Ok then back to my 1st post. Where?
Shadowbringers MSQ.
Tales from the Shadows.
Endwalker Omega sidequests.
>What are you talking about? The black rose timeline exists because it evidenced in Shadowbringers.
Yes, it exists because time travel creates a new timeline where events play out differently. Thus we can assume that whatever original event sent the WOL back in time to Elpis was another timeline that in turn created ours in similar fashion to the Black Rose timeline creating our timeline where Black Rose wasn't used.
>The black rose one was never in question.
Then the other timeline is not in question either.
>Shadowbringers MSQ.
>Tales from the Shadows.
>Endwalker Omega sidequests.
Literally all the Blackrose timeline. Not your red time.
>Yes, it exists because time travel creates a new timeline where events play out differently.
You made this up based on the time travel rules of other media. Its not established at all in game except one. The black rose one.
>Then the other timeline is not in question either.
Your red timeline is not the same as the Black Rose timeline. I don't know how you think that makes sense.
>Literally all the Blackrose timeline
They establish that the Black Rose timeline exists, and that going back in time creates a new timeline in which the time travel event always happened since the time traveler came from a different timeline.
Ergo, any other time travel events must have, at some point, originally occurred as a result of time travel from a separate timeline, even closed loops like Elpis or Alexander.
Once again, you can't say the Black Rose timeline exists but other doomed timelines don't exist. It directly contradicts that rule about how time travel functions.
>Once again, you can't say the Black Rose timeline exists but other doomed timelines don't exist
Sure I can. Because the black rose time line has evidence of existing thanks to all the media you mentioned. The red one you made up doesn't. Just like these time travel rules you seem to have.
>The red one you made up doesn't.
Then the Black Rose one doesn't.
>Timeline that literally has evidence of existing in game doesn't exist
No. Once again. The only thing that doesn't exist is red timeline you made up. Black rose time has evidence of existing. Your red timeline does not.
>any other time travel events must have
Why? It's only ever been used as an explanation of a single event, and never proffered for any example of closed loop time travel. Multiple contradictory mechanisms of time travel is a valid explanation, and the fact that you prefer the Science Adventure series being about consistently codified rules rather than dramatic convenience doesn't change that. If it were expected to know that there's an Alexander calamity and successful Final Days timelines, then someone would've said something; the fact that it hasn't even been given a single statement even from live letters should tell you that it's not something anyone but you is thinking about.
>Why?
Why would it not? Why would two identical actions not have identical results?
>If it were expected to know that there's an Alexander calamity and successful Final Days timelines, then someone would've said something
It's not expected for you to know it. You don't need to know about them and it would be a waste of time to talk about them because they're not relevant to the plot and the player can infer their existence if they care to know about them. Droning on about irrelevant bullshit instead of advancing the plot is how you get plodding nonsense like the Titan banquet arc. You shouldn't need characters to stop and explain to you the mechanics of time travel every time it happens when it's already explained once.
The evidence of it existing is that time travel creates alternate timelines as proven by the Black Rose timeline.
Someone time traveled.
Therefore, there must have been another timeline for them to travel from.
You have to explain why two identical actions would produce different results or concede that I am correct. And no, "the writers are just bad because they didn't over explain this random nonsense" is not a reason.
>The evidence of it existing is that time travel creates alternate timelines as proven by the Black Rose timeline.
Then you should easily be able to show me evidence of the red timeline existing.
But you can't. Because you made it up.
Just like you made up this arguement:
>You have to explain why two identical actions would produce different results
>Then you should easily be able to show me evidence of the red timeline existing.
Easy.
The same events happened that caused the existence of our timeline instead of the Black Rose timeline. Therefore the same result must happen (splitting off of another timeline).
If you disagree then you must explain why going back in time would create a new timeline for the Black Rose timeline but not for Elpis. Which of course, you cannot do as there is no explanation for that and your argument has no basis other than you not wanting to feel stupid for jumping to the conclusion that the writer is simply bad rather than that you're simply stupid and incapable of simple logic.
>your argument has no basis
This is your argument stupid. Which again you have proven you have no evidence of a timeline you claim to be real existing. All you have given me is evidence of Black rose existing which is not your timeline you completely made up yet you keep trying to pass it off as such.
Its your own logical fallacy and its also why you keep making up your own arguments like:
>you must explain why going back in time would create a new timeline for the Black Rose timeline but not for Elpis
instead of just showing me evidence of the red timeline existing like I asked. Do I have to define the word evidence for you to understand?
>instead of just showing me evidence of the red timeline existing like I asked.
The evidence is that it must exist because it is the natural result of time travel as directly shown by the existence of the Black Rose timeline.
Provide an explanation for why time travel resulting in the creation of an alternate timeline only applies specifically to the one explained instance and a reason why other instances of time travel that weren't as thoroughly explained cannot be surmised to function the same way. If you fail to do this, I am correct and you are wrong, as I have an argument and you do not.
If you post anything else, it will be an admission that you are incorrect and I will ignore it.
>The evidence is that it must exist because it is the natural result of time travel as directly shown by the existence of the Black Rose timeline.
For the last time no. That is evidence of the black rose timeline and our timeline. Neither of which involves that red line you made up.
Nothing you have mentioned this whole thread is evidence of your red timeline existing and I don't think you even know what evidence means. Your wrong and you can't prove that what your talking about actually exists. All throughout the thread you've been asked for one piece of evidence and every single time you show evidence of the black rose timelines existence. Now you resort to random arguments you made up like:
> If you fail to do this, I am correct and you are wrong, as I have an argument and you do not.
Its not an argument. The thing you claim to exist literally doesn't. You are wrong in you own theory. Seek help.
Hello yoshi-p keep working in xvi and finish it

>still fails to provide evidence of his claimed red timeline

This wasn't even an argument because you had no basis to stand on. You "lost".
Also I've already answered your dumb goal post moving question. The answer is simple and I've said it multiple times already. Because the black rose timeline has evidence if existing. Your timeline does not. Because you made it up. Next time just admit your wrong.

>Seething
I literally just did give you an explanation. You just refuse to accept it. Probably because it has evidence and you don't know what that means. Maybe next time if you provide evidence like I asked you won't resort to getting btfo

>provide an explanation for why time travel resulting in the creation of an alternate timeline only applies specifically to the one explained instance
Because this is the only instance of Graha pulling off that level of time frickery, requireing Alexander and his crystal tower to pull it off. Your comparing apples to oranges like a dumbass.
The alternate timeline is probably more an Omega thing
>requireing Alexander and his crystal tower to pull it off.
>Alexander
>the Crystal Tower
Both things involved in both other instances of time travel that we know of.
What's your point? You still haven't provided an explanation for why there can't pre-Elpis loop or pre-Alexander loop timelines where Alexander was invented or where the WOL was originally sent back to Elpis.
>Both things involved in both other instances of time travel that we know of.
What are you on about? When did we bring in alexander to help us get to Elpis? The answer is never.
You shouldn't expect the same results because the process' were substantially different. Again apples to oranges.
All three instances of time travel that we know of where either the direct result of Alexander (the Alexander raids) or indirectly the result of Alexander via the Crystal Tower (black rose, Elpis).
In fact in both the case of Elpis and the Black Rose timeline both of those were instigated by the exact same instance of the Crystal Tower itself.
Your completely making things up now. No other instance of time travel involve Graha's Crystal tower AND Alexander AND traveling to another shard. What Graha pulled is no where near the magnitude of any other time travel in game. So why are you even comparing them to going to Elpis as if it's supposed to have the same effects? Apples to Oranges anon
Using Graha's tower inherently means using Alexander tech. You can't use one without the other, it's what enables the travel across time in the first place. The travel to another shard is irrelevant as that's Omega tech, although since the Elpis loop is the result of Graha's tower it also has access to that technology.
The only difference is the scale. Graha's time travel sent the entire tower back with his entire body and soul. Our time travel only sent back our soul, but we still clearly influenced events in some way with our presence therefore there is nothing to show that there is any difference between the two.
You have continually failed to provide anything to disprove my claims, you've only stated that the game doesn't directly confirm my theory, which is obvious as it wouldn't be a theory if it did. However, it is a plausible theory within the game's established world as I have repeatedly shown by citing similar events that caused similar results, and as nobody has provided any counterarguments where the game directly contradicts my theory. Absence of proof does not disprove a theory. It simply means it remains a theory instead of fact.
>Absence of proof doesnt disclaim a theory
Yet your also the anon who couldnt just say he had no evidence earlier and say it was just a theory? Lmao
Your missing the point. Traveling to Elpis isnt just as powerful has Grahas time travel just through association. You fail to understand it was the work of him, Alexander and the tower TOGETHER that made the events of Shadowbringer and subsequently our timeline, possible. Your comparing traveling via only the crystal tower to be just as effective when it isn't by any logical sense. Just do the math. Just using the crystal tower is not possible to get the same results and its silly to try and state otherwise. Nor just Alexander. Neither piece alone compares to the magnitude of what he pulled off.
>Yet your also the anon who couldnt just say he had no evidence earlier and say it was just a theory?
But I do have evidence. I don't have proof and never said I did. I only said that evidence supports my theory, provided the evidence that does, and nobody has provided any proof that my theory isn't tenable.
>Your missing the point.
No, you are, ESL.
>Traveling to Elpis isnt just as powerful has Grahas time travel just through association.
Of course it's not. Traveling to Elpis required significantly less power because it was just sending one soul back in time. As Elidibus stated, it required the last of the power left in the Tower, and while that's not a stated amount, it's very safe to assume that's significantly less than the vast quantities stored in it prior to Graha sending it back, even if traveling to Elpis requires more power due to being further back in time (again as Elidibus states). The amount of power consumed or required for either isn't relevant though, both are instances of time travel that use the exact same mechanic to instigate time travel that directly results in changing events in the past in some manner. Thus, the easiest assumption to make is that their results are also the same.
>. You fail to understand it was the work of him, Alexander and the tower TOGETHER that made the events of Shadowbringer and subsequently our timeline, possible.
And it was the work of Elidibus (who possessed Graha's knowledge of the Tower's functions as directly stated in his conversation), Alexander and the tower TOGETHER that sent us back to Elpis.
Again, no mechanical differences other than the actors involved and the energy required.
>Your comparing traveling via only the crystal tower
No, I'm not. I'm comparing traveling via Graha's crystal tower (IE, the Tower equipped with Alexander & Omega tech) to traveling via Graha's crystal tower (IE the Tower equipped with Alexander & Omega tech).
Dumbass by your own claims he doesn't have to disprove anything because you yourself cant provide any evidence of your own claim. Now stop shitting up the thread.
>Dumbass by your own claims he doesn't have to disprove anything because you yourself cant provide any evidence of your own claim.
I have provided ample evidence of my own claim. I haven't provided proof, which is why it's simply a theory. I never stated that I had proof and that my theory was canon fact, I simply stated that it's a resonable assumption to make as it lines up perfectly with all the other information provided ingame and that you don't need a direct explanation because a simple, logical explanation is easy to infer.
Then some anon sperged out because he thinks it's a different Crystal Tower that we used to go back to Elpis for some reason.
>Panda castle just popped into our current timeline
It's in the underworld though. I think that's not time travel, it's just afterlife stuff. Maybe athena found a way to persist down there and continued her work in some way. I dunno.
It could just be a time capsule from Elpis
Pretty sure red timeline doesn't exist, the circumstances that lead to the Fandaniel triggering the Final Days started with dead Elidibus being trapped in Crystal Tower, and Hydaelin using Krile to trigger the convergence.
The black timeline where WoL dies would have Emet Selch and Elidibus living and putting a check on Fandaniel's moronation.
Oh ok I get it now, we "jump" unknowingly to the timeline that best fits our current actions.
why does red exist when that literally didn't happen
It literally didn't happen in our attractor field, same as the Black Rose stuff didn't happen in our attractor field.
but like that couldn't have happened
events leading up to wol going to elpis are predicated on wol already having gone to elpis
>but like that couldn't have happened
Not on our worldline no.
then i don't get why it's there and intersecting with our timeline
it's just flatout incompatible with events as they happened
But Elidibus remembers us before we visit Elpis.
That's because we're on the worldline where the WOL visited Elpis.
It is a closed loop in our attractor field, yes. The creation of that closed loop is what allows the alpha worldline to exist in the first place. Same as Steins;Gate.
The only attractor field is the one around your butthole attracting in dicks, you dumb homosexual.
Ok so when did we exactly jumped into that timeline? following your graph we were briefly in the one where we didn't visit Elpis.
We don't know because we don't have anyone with knowledge of that worldline like we do with Graha.
My assumption would be that the timeline where the Final Days happened is one where people independently discovered the events of Elpis (likely via Hythlodeus or Emet-Selch in the lifestream, or even Hermes) and sent the WOL back in time, initiating a loop.
That's because he's trapped in the tower that got sent back from the black rose timeline. The Hydaelyn from that timeline told Cid's descendants to program a memory insertion for Elidibus within the Crystal Tower and then she only told Graha that he needed to trap Elidibus within the Crystal Tower because they knew he would come to stop our WoL from preventing the rejoining of the first. And Hydaelyn knows that because in 8.0 we go back in time again to Amaurot as 'Azem' into the Black Rose timeline and tell her all of this to close the overall time loop.
That'd be neat, ngl
Stop time traveling, you're way too damn obvious.
Red doesn't happen, the events in Elpis are a closed loop.
There is no red timeline, dummy. Elpis is part of a closed loop.
It should be but it makes no sense, this anon with the colored lines paints the best picture of it.
>If G'raha did not intervene in our timeline we would have died
>If we die, we don't visit Elpis
>If we don't, Venat would not know about the future nor would she go with you and the boys to Kitsis and put her tracer on Meteion
>it makes no sense
What makes no sense is the dumbshit you're trying to push.
People don't understand time travel it seems. Look at pic related.
The fact that the Elpis visit happened before the split makes it so we don't have to visit Elpis from the Black Rose timeline
>"Sir Azem there a problem in Elpis..."

Thought it might be a tribal quest thing, since the village where the ubereats elephants build is there in 6.0 now, just abandoned until you do their questline.
But nope, it's gone in EW msq, and only there after 6.2 is complete. Something is brewing there.
it only apears after you the sigma dugeon
>t.knower
What's this about something in one of the maps changing noticeably? Are they pulling a 1.0 on us again in the leadup to the next xpac?
2 posts above yours
There's a weird blob of light with some chunks of debris floating around it in the skybox of the last EW area
Could be related to Omicron beast tribe, could be that "wish" Metion talked about, could be another cataclysmic event in the happening that will soft-reset us into 7.0
its just trannies off their meds
Oh wait there's maint? fuuuuuck

>Extremely obvious, not trying to hide it, even placed near another main skybox attraction and almost crowding it
>Could be for the Omicron quests but why would they add it now and not in 6.25
>Either way it only shows up in 6.2 quests, Omicrons I'd imagine are going to be available instantly upon completing 6.0 so it would have to be there earlier if it were for the Omicrons
>Nothing in 6.2 hints at anything happening in Ultima Thule
>Meteion is gone so how would something even appear there, the place should be dissipating
It's not subtle at all, what the hell is going on.
just be something they wanted to add to the skybox/was supposed to be there
We know it's definitely not this because if you NG+ into 6.0 Ultima Thule it isn't there. It's an object that specifically only appears when you're on 6.2.
be for the Omicron quests but why would they add it now and not in 6.25
Elephant village was added in 6.1 and empty til 6.15
At what point can you SEE the quests though, if you were to play through the story now would you have access to do the quests immediately upon beating 6.0? or do you have to get into 6.1s story before being able to do hippo rider quests?
If you can't see them till 6.1 then ok, but if you can see them in 6.0 then as
points out it makes no sense to need to be IN 6.2 for the star to appear.
Does the star disappear if you activate new game+? Like all the other shit in the zone
The diffrence though is that the village was added to base 6.0 since you only need to beat the base expansion to unlock the tribe quests while this thing only appears after you beat 6.2 so it has something to do with the msq otherwise you would be able to see in the base 6.0.

Sure.
Who said it's a planet?
It's just not good content.
The story is a drag and complete nonsense, the raids range from average to bad, it gives very little interest into the nier series itself, it doesn't fit within the world of FFXIV at all whatsoever and could've been placed anywhere else (or been replaced for SHB-unique alliance raids), and some people don't like the 2b leggings being as prominent as they are, however it gave me the type 53 maiming set so I'm cool with the glam personally.
>some people don't like the 2b leggings
You mean some "people".
The real reason anyone dislikes the Nier raids is the story is shit, we only got one new track per raid, and the raids were fricking boring and easy Void Ark tier dogshit with inflated HP.
>some people don't like the 2b leggings being as prominent as they are
Yeah. they're called homoqueers.
>instead of finally seeing Meracydia and the new world the next expansion will just add another fricking planet.
The 6.3 ultimate is going to be omega themed, right?
Will they go nuclear and bring in FF7 stuff?
Why would they?
I can see them throwing random collab, but there is no reason to integrate FFVII's shit in the main story beyond reference like the weapon series
I'm referring to how the theme of omega raids is callbacks to previous FF games, they got shit like Kefka and Exdeath in there.
Was wondering if they'll bring in FF7 stuff and go full fanservice for the 6.3 ult
>FF7
They'll keep that shit in reserve.
I hope they do two ultimates for Omega instead of wasting one on the Four Lords.
One ultimate for the Tournament of Power and one for Shinryu+Omega.
i know nothing about ANY story in this game but cant omega create simulations or whatever? maybe when hes about to die in the ultimate he creates a sephiroth simulation but lets be real that'd be way too much fanservice and it wouldnt fit the ultimate at all.

It's the only application to work with, but it can mess up your game and will need to repair the game client if you are sloppy. For someone new I would suggest using XIVlauncher with the Penumbra plugin, it can mimic the actions of Textools and load modpacks in game but it doesn't alter the game files in any way. And when a patch happens, textools autodisables all your mods, but you can preemptively disable them or compile all of the mods you had enabled into a big modpack and then just load it in later, so you wouldn't have to re-enable everything manually.
Textools can't mess up your client anymore and hasn't been able to for a while, it now automatically repairs everything even if an update fricks things up.
That said it's completely outdated as a user tool now since Penumbra does everything it does but with better functionality. The only reason to use textools anymore is for development or if you have a potato PC.
I had managed to screw up my game a week ago to the point that it would give me an error on launch and I had to repair my client via xivlauncher. I guess I'm just that special. I still use textools because it's what I'm used to, but I am gradually moving to Penumbra.
I plan to download and use mods, not create them, so is Penumbra a better alternative? What exactly is XIVlauncher?
So its a separate application entirely? Cool, thought it was a plugin but that sounds useful enough
Yeah Penumbra is the better option.
>What exactly is XIVlauncher
A separate user launcher for the game that comes with a plugin framework that allows you to create or install mods in-game with the Dalamud framework. Penumbra is a plugin for Dalamud that allows you to load cosmetic mods via an in-game UI without having to close the game and loads them via runtime rather than altering the game files. Basically Penumbra keeps a folder full of the mod files and whenever it detects somoene wearing an item you have a mod applied to, it applies that mod to their character and reloads them so that they have the modded appearance.
If you mod via Textools, then anytime you see anyone wearing the item you modified it will have its modded appearance. With penumbra you can set it so that it works that way, or that it only applies to specific characters and not randoms. You can also use some nintendo-like friend code system to share your modlist with other people you've whitelisted so you can see what mods your friends have on their character and they see your mods on your character and such.
That does sound much better, but also a bit more awkward to use, I'll see about setting it up either way, I'm sure I'll figure it out.
Any key mods I should check out? I don't really care about coomer mods, mostly stuff that will make my gameplay experience better.
been eying up that mod that restores the old Gunbreaker SFX
There are no mods that I can immediately think of that are a must have, but when it comes to plugins that come ready to be instaledl with Dalamud, Simple Tweaks is useful, there's a whole lot of stuff you can get, but what I usually get is the part that enables me to see precise enemy health numbers. There's also a plugin that enables you to minimize your game if you play borderless windowed and a plugin that alerts you when a duty pops by flashing your taskbar and playing a sound of your choosing, can even load in your own.
>Any key mods I should check out?
Gunbreaker SFX mod, animation mods (not the ricer ones that add new animations; ones that swap out shit animations for old ones like the storm's path->Butcher's block mod or the mod that replaces DRK's shit combo with its old weaponskills), Titan Firm bodies just so you have skin textures and body models that aren't potatoes with no toes and sausage fingers

Which one is this? XIV Alexander?
There's a plugin built into Dalamud that does a similar thing that lacks the expanded functionality of Alexander. I prefer Alexander.
>>in-game minicacpot calculator

Of all the cheats possible has to be cactpot instead of the crappy weekly fox minigame
>marketboard anywhere
This one is risky to use if the devs ever so decide to actually check the logs for player XYZ proximity to legal market boards one day.
>reduce artificial latency if you have a constant ping of 200
Still baffled they didn't resolve this officially. Fricking bonkers you got your ping to the server, and every action has a 50ms delay on top of that dictated by the server.
Oh yeah, chat bubbles. Mod creator is terrible with updates though
I highly recommend XIVlauncher, like that other anon that is talking to you. His explanation is already rather exhausting, so I've got nothing more to offer. tl;dr
>Get XIV launcher
>Get Penumbra for it as Penumbra is a plugin you can install through Dalamud
>Install whatever mods you like after you figure Penumbra out
Access to all those you can gain by googling it, they are not hidden in any way.
Do not use Mare Synchronos, it scrapes your modlist and you need to submit your lodestone profile to their discord before you can access it, you are literally letting some XIR and his bunch of wild freaks know what mods you are installing and giving them proof to report you to SE if they ever feel like it.
I don't use Mare Synchronous, I've just heard about it. I'm still using textools because I'm too lazy to download all my mods, although I did start using Customize+ recently instead of racial scaling.
Thanks for the warning though. Normally I wouldn't care about something like that but with how fricking psycho the XIV modding community can be (especially Bibo freaks) I don't know if I want to trust them with my Lodestone profile.
Can penumbra do UI mods?
Yes.
Yes. You can install it with either Textools or Penumbra and do not profane the name of holy mods, the mental rejects simply latched onto them later.
yes, but you will likely need to restart the client for the changes to take effect
is penumbra the thing you need to install animation mods? normally i despise modtrannies but that vergil SAM mod is worth chopping my dick off for
Does XIV launcher care if my account is through steam?
It does not.
No but it requires you to have Steam open in online mode to launch, just like the default launcher does. Unfortunately there's no workaround for that anymore
I dunno, call me a boomer but I don't trust any of that shit. I just stick to Textools since installation orders is something I'm used to from modding Bethesda games for years.
Anamnesis is just a tool you can use to pose your character or load in animations, although I never dabbled with that. It's useful if you want to preview gear as well.

My theory on 6.4 panda is that the lahabrea we know from the present is actually his hephaistos which is why he is so comically evil and old man laha was actually trapped in panda and is in the panda in that appeared in the present.
how did the other ascians not notice though....they can't be that moronic can they
That part of lifestream is where Hydaelin was at her strongest and had been accumulating power in the mothercrystal for 12k+ years for reasons they don't know, I don't think the Ascians would dare to frick with an entity that sealed their god.
i meant lahabrea being moronic. nobody went "anybody notice the guy who is usually an emotionless sperg is doing a LOT of evil laughing recently"
Emet-Selch wrote it off as him being deteriorating from body jumping too much and being too obsessed with completing the Rejoining. That and a lot of shit happens during the Final Days, Zodiark Summoning, Sundering, and going through the Rejoining process that there is a buffet of traumatic personality changing event to choose from.
And when all is said and done, don't know how it is with the Convocation member, but the rest of the ancients were more or less like children in the way they perceive the world in the idealized manner and guiding the stars for the best. To turn around and be literal illuminati israelites perpetrating multiple world ending genocide has to fricking scar emotionally, likely to the point where all fricking ascians are probably doing some crazy ass shit to cope with that.
Most of the Convocation seemingly turned into evil clowns so he fit right in even if was unsundered.
They might have noticed but since hephaistos was still a ancient I would bet they would care that he was evil since they couldn't find the real laha and their and his goals would line up since I imagine hephaistos would need to rejoin the world so he could revive athena. They were kinda lacking on allies so don't think they could dismiss hephaistos.
Finally got to Diamond.
Should I push in and try tor Crystal right now or wait till more people are in Diamond/Crystal so the queues aren't dead?
I mean, if you have free time? Why not go for it? Good luck with the rank anon.
It's because the queues right now for Diamond/Crystal are a bit dead, you at D5 is still quick enough but starting in D3 and onward, you can get like 15-20min queues because there is just isn't enough people in Diamond/Crystal at this point.
From what I noticed, the new pool of queues is something like this
>Unranked, Bronze, Gold
>High Gold, Plat, Low Diamond
>Low Diamond, Diamond, Crystal
I'm not sure for Crystal yet.
But thanks for the kind words Anon, honestly this season is a lot more challenging since everyone was put down to Bronze 3 and you can actually derank from Diamond and Crystal if you lose at D5 0 stars or Crystal 0 credits, so climbing will be a lot more harder.
Still, I'll try to get that top 100 this time.
HOLY ZODIARK THE SERVERS ARE UP

It makes no sense at all that Hydaelyn would be so powerful and alone could fricking murder everyone in the world.
she didn't murder them, she just made them walk

I know the cutscenes made it seem instantaneous but i'm sure it was a long drawn out process AND it's not like she was alone, she had backers too to help create shards i'm sure
>alone
She had supporters. The cutscene was just a summed up version of events but they tell you she had other ancients backing her up because they also thought sucking Zodiark dick sucked.
Nah they were hydaelyn simps its implied in the side story blog
The anti-convocation are as much simps for Hydaelin as the scions/ironworks/alliance are simps for WoL
Venat fricking taught Azem how to be murderhobo, pretty sure there are a bunch of ancients that isn't on the receiving end of her murderhoboing that benefits from other people/things/concept being murderhobo'd by her.

Man im totally lost on how a light calamity somehow makes toxic gas in the source stronger
This has totally flown over my head, dont see that connection at all.
Blackrose stopped the flow of aether inside people. The main effect of light is stasis.
Okay that helps clear things up a little bit, just the term toxic gas I have preconceptions of and it was just disjointing to connect those together.
To put it bluntly: reducing the first to a huge chunk of light aspected aether and injecting it into The Source would create a temporary overabundance of light aspected aether on the planet. While not immediately devastating, it amplified the effects of Black Rose tremendously turning it from mustard gas into something akin to Grey Goo.
Basically Black Rose functions by halting aetherial currents, and light aether also naturally does this, so having an abundance of light aether on the Source would have allowed Black Rose to spread much more rapidly than expected. So the imperials release enough Black Rose to gas the Eorzean alliance in Ilsabard, but it ends up being amplified to the point where it gasses half of Eorzea, all of Gyr abania, and half of Ilsabard including Garlemald itself.
>all of Gyr abania
I guess that wasn't such a bad timeline after all
You can say that again.
Black Rose operates off of light aspected Aether since light aspected aether naturally reduces aetherial activity while Darkness induces it. Hence why the dark void world is full of beings that never die and the light void world is almost entirely devoid of life in the light-suffused sections.
Is there a history what catastrophes they triggered on the source for all the other rejoinings before?
Yes, some of it's ingame, some of it is in the lorebook.
For example, the calamity of water was the flood that destroyed Mhach and Amdapor and ended the War of the Magi.
The calamity of earth was the earthquake that destabilized the Crystal Tower and ended the Allagan civilization.
There was an ice calamity that caused an ice age which created the ice bridge that allowed Miqo'te to migrate over to Eorzea but I forgot the specifics of that one.
The wiki has history on all previous calamities and the elements associated with them
https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Umbral_Calamity
Not sure how accurate it is since I don't actually have Encyclopedia Eorzea.
Lorelet here. I don't fully understand how the rejoinings/calamities relate to the elements.
>Aero Calamity, presumably peoceeded by a shard becoming consumed by aero
>Lightning Calamity, preseumably preceeded by a shard becoming consumed by lightning,
>Fire Calamity, etc
>Earth Calamity
>Ice Calamity
>Water Calamity
>Moon crashing into the planet calamity
What shard got fricked up in what way for that to be a rejoining?
>Would be darkness calamity forestalled because the ascians fricked up and made a shard TOO dark, runing the place and nearly the First in the process. The whole place is abandoned for now and the Source is technically in a non-stop darkness mini calamity due to the constant threat of voidsent and voidgates
>Next calamity on the to do list was the light calamity, originally going to be done by baiting Thordan into unbalancin the Source's aether with plan B being to finish the consumption of the First in light - this was prevented
So what other calamities could have happened to rejoin the other shards? Is it possible that some of the still in tact shards have elements that don't exist in the source yet?
Each shard is literally based off a previous mainline FF. The element assigned to it is what is commonly tied to that entry. That's why for example X is associated with water and the 10th shard's calamity was water.
Each one of the reflections of the Source is aspected to a particular element, when that shard is destroyed it becomes absorbed by the Source if a particular disaster happens on the Source aspected to that element to succ the corresponding aether in.
So for example the First was on the verge of being entirely converted into light aspected aether, which would have then been started bleeding over into the Source, allowing Black Rose to be amplified by the natural abundance of light aether, causing a massive explosion of light aether that succs in the aether from the First and rejoins it.
>Is it possible that some of the still in tact shards have elements that don't exist in the source yet?
No, there are 14 shards. One each for light and darkness, and one each for each astral/umbral element (astral fire, umbral fire, astral ice, umbral ice, etc.)
Ah, thanks, that makes sense
The elements exist in astral and umbral states, so they would have to do a second set of the same elemental calamities to form a proper aetheric system to enable the rejoined world to function properly. The loss of the 13th was actually a huge fricking blow to their plan because without a whole shard they couldn't complete the rejoining properly.
>The loss of the 13th was actually a huge fricking blow to their plan because without a whole shard they couldn't complete the rejoining properly.
Emet states that their plan was basically to rejoin all the other shards, then maybe figure out how to fix the Void afterward and rejoin it.
Obviously it doesn't need to be completely restored to be rejoined properly, it just needs to be pulled back from the edge while they prep a dark calamity for the Source.
I imagine if they rejoined 12/13 and unsealed Zodiark, he could probably bruteforce the solution.
Also ita implied golbed destroyed or consumed zodiark 13th shard
>13th shard
Could you elaborate? This is something I never understood, is there "shards/reflections" of the original unsundered world in all of the reflections?
Yes. All the worlds are copies of the source. There is a Mare Lamentorum and Zodiark sealed on each of them too, but as you had seen with the 13th, that need not remain the case as Golbez fricking killed them all and ate/destroyed Zodiark.
Correction: there was Zodiark, after Fandaniel killed the original on the Source, the other reflections also vanished.
>ate/destroyed Zodiark.
is that what was implied in the final cutscene of 6.2?
Yes, he's standing on the moon in front of the keeper with Zodiark's seal behind them.
who knows. zodiark dies and all the souls went back to the lifestream or just the 7/14 went to the life stream and each zodiark piece still has souls in it.
who cares.
Well they were going to counterflood 13th with the 1st.
The wiki mentioned that the calamity for Dalamud was unaspected, but Astral in nature
The calamities that happened thus far was considered Umbral Calamities, presumably the next half of the calamities would be the Astral manifestation of elements. As Urianger explained in the Il Mheg scene in Shadowbringers, there is Astral and Umbral aspect on all the elements
If each element exists in two different forms, then how come there are an odd number of shards? Was the 7th just a bonus shard or something for the sake of the "XIV" reference?
One isn't a shard but the source off which the rest are reflections of.
Then what was the Source's "original aspected element?" The six elements twice over gives you twelve calamities and twelve reflections, but we have 13 reflections
/shrug, they decided to end the story before anyone fully explain the full breakdown of the Ascian plan, maybe someone ought to ask that on the next QA session
There's a bunch of forum posts you can look up online that combine the knowledge acquired from various sources and condense it neatly.
How long do i have to play DPS before i stop dropping my spaghetti everywhere? Tanking all these years has ruined me it seems.
Tried doing some unreal yesterday. I either die because i am too focussed on my buttons or i mess up my rotation because i am trying not to die.
When do i reach the stage where i do my rotation as easily as i breath?
Have you done any content besides unreal as a DPS? If not get used to it in easier stuff beforehand.
Also make sure you know your class, and read up on it.
Just gotta practice your rotation until it's just muscle memory, it's basically the same skill required for you to do fighting game's bnb or rhythm game's beat. If you have to look at the button, then you're not there yet.
Can someone explain why in the ever loving frick Asahi came back for a single scene out of nowhere? I absolutely hated that basic b***h c**t and it's kinda baffling it might have just been some shameless fanservice.

No, but it was kinda funny to see that b***h Hermes get clowned on by some homosexual with a bowl cut
>Can someone explain why in the ever loving frick Asahi came back for a single scene out of nowhere?
So that people wouldn't mistakenly believe that Hermes/Fandaniel got off scot-free. Asahi shows up so that the player is assured that he'll pay for his crimes in some way. Also it was funny.
>So that people wouldn't mistakenly believe that Hermes/Fandaniel got off scot-free. Asahi shows up so that the player is assured that he'll pay for his crimes in some way. Also it was funny.

low key, in logic of the lore, it does. It's literally capable of "creation magicks" when paired with female's eggs. Womb stimulation would also become a hot commodity.

So was Ganker wrong again? I'm going through Bozja (just finished DR) and plot isn't that bad. At least it's not Eureka levels of barebones.
its okay, there's one scene that's just fricking stupid (your WoL just sits there while soldiers are being tempered despite being the fricking WoL) and clearly was made in mind of you not being a literal overpowered godslayer, but what can you do
I like Bozja mostly because lost actions made the game more fun than the rest of the game
i agree and the hate is overrated
HOWEVER
there are some real dumb fricking scenes and one yet to come
I hope you like the femroe shrek because she's the entire focus of the plot and the actual resistance stuff gets sidelined to focus entirely on her.
I also hope you don't like any of the other resistance characters besides the leader guy because they're all going to get vored by the shrek.
didn't Eureka end in a cliffhanger? we still don't know what happened to Galuf crew, iirc they sacrificed themselves to seal Eureka?

shut the frick up you bozjan Black person. matsuno is a hack and bozja is shit. use essences also homosexual.
My issue with Bozja is how it swaps from a Resistance story to being about the traitor femroe and how the end of it was handled. It's pretty clear a lot of content got cut in Zadnor
Also while the duels are cool the limitations on being able to do them sucks.
we didnt need another resistant story. stop making stupid war stories with muh resistance and muh imperials. corvois is going to be trash if they keep doing this. that stupid gay matsuno doesnt even read the lore.
We didn't need another resistance story but we also don't need a story about the hrothgar's old country from hundreds (or thousands) or years ago. Nor did we need the copious amounts of tactics and 12 references in it

We're not going to save the Void ourselves because that fricks up so many plot points if we reversed the damage entirely. Probably just be a case of setting the wheels in motion for habitats of the Void to fix it afterwards........one year.
It'll be like the First where we get the ball rolling and restore a portion of the Void, and the inhabitants of it can restore the rest themselves.

>tfw been learning to play on a controller by doing expert roulette to get a good feel
how the FRICK do people do ultimates on controller holy shit
SAM is also weird as hell to play on controller
By just getting used to all the jank by playing the game for years on controller only. Console players also are naturally more used to using controllers for things like scrolling through menus and such so they don't find it awkward when something effortless with a mouse takes them 15 buttons and 2 seconds to do on controller or having to scroll through party lists to target people/create separate macros for targeting since the alternative is them building up muscle memory with KB/M that they haven't had a lifetimes' worth of experience with like PC players.
>the alternative is them building up muscle memory with KB/M that they haven't had a lifetimes' worth of experience with like PC players.
Tough shit. I've been a consolegay since childhood and have only really used a PC for games in the last 6-7 years. If you know how to type, you can play on a keyboard. Took me almost my entire lifetime to realize that controllers are a waste of time to build muscle memory for so the faster you drop it, the better.
>Tough shit. I've been a consolegay since childhood and have only really used a PC for games in the last 6-7 years.
Yeah, but consider that XIV is a casual game and a lot of players of it probably haven't used a PC for anything in their lives besides browsing Facebook, and the majority of people in XIV's age range have likely always used phones for that anyway. There is a sizable chunk of the playerbase, maybe even the majority, that have maybe a handful of hours of experience with a keyboard and mouse and have never even learned how to type. For them it's not worth it to learn all of that and they just use a controller instead. For the more dedicated players in that situation they probably pidgeonhole themselves into getting too used to using a controller and feel that it's preferable to just set up macros and assist targeting and XHBs instead of relearning how to walk with a different control scheme entirely. Similar to how a lot of KB/M players still don't use """legacy""" controls and just deal with the jank of """standard""" controls because they got too used to it.
FGC has long accepted that controls are best for whatever makes you comfortable. This is why it's entirely possible for a controller player to beat a arcade stick player or a hitbox player to beat a controller player, etc etc.
So if you want to play XIV on a dance pad, go for it as long as it's what you're best at.
Yeah that's what I'm saying, people will just stick with what they're most experienced with (within reason, obviously you're not going to get someone playing XIV with a racing wheel except as a meme). All that matters is that the game is fully playable with any option and that's clearly the case for XIV even if you do have to jump through some hoops for a controller if you want to do like, high end content on healer comfortably or something.
These people are idiots, and that's a good thing. Like the morons who avoid smartphones and their benefits entirely and instead get dumb phones because muh social media too stressful meme. I love how even with heavy controller support in pretty much the only MMO that does this, keyboard is still superior in almost every way.
>Why yes, I would like to clutter my screen even fricking more just so I can manage CD timers.
human idiocy never ceases to surprise.
I agree that any human in 2022 who can't type is a fricking moron but I wouldn't put "playing FFXIV more optimally" very high on the list of reasons why you should learn how to type.
that's just the byproduct. but as you said, zoomies these days can't even type on a keyboard because all they know are smartphones. guaranteed majority of controller users occupy lower income households and blue-collar jobs.
>2factor
>gps anywhere
>blocking spam calls, period.
it's called dumb phone "revolution" and it's one of the most dumbest trends today. perpetuated by a female hollywood celeb so go figure.
>who avoid smartphones and their benefits
What benefits?
It's pretty much required for getting a job these days.
If a job needs me to have a smart phone to make me deal with on-call bullshit they can issue me a business one. Never had a job application require anything more than a basic e-mail and phone number, which I got my flipphone for.
Unless you live in some dystopia that also requires you to send them your social media accounts so they can see if your views don't conflict with their company branding.
Finding out your wife is cheating on you
It's comfy. Also, expand your crossbar.
you generally don't need to do it unless you have a good reason to
i prefer playing in front of a big tv screen and years of using the mouse in various games makes my wrist hate the little Black person so i play this game on controller, but it takes some time to build the new muscle memory and customize the shit out of your hotbars
YOSHIT-PISS, OPEN THE FRICKING SERVERS, I NEED TO FEED MY SHEEPS
why did the bozja storyline have some b***h in it that can see the future and insists it cannot be changed in the expansion where the future is changed
because matsuno is a hack.
it really felt as if matsuno didn't read existing lore
YoshiP idolizes Matsuno and probably gave him carte blanche on Bozja. Then he actually read the story and gave him the pink slips.
Thank frick he is no longer working on the game.
Still find it funny that the final boss in all of his work is just a 3rd diablos fight instead of one of "beloved" references
gabranth would be just like golbez is now. a flop. rubicante will have to carry the patches.
So what is this maint about anyway?
>rubicante will have to carry the patches.
Easily able to do that if he is anything like the ff4 version
>So what is this maint about anyway?
>The following issue has been addressed:
・There are cases where the Cross-world Linkshell, PvP team, or fellowship will be disbanded if the owner (Cross-world Linkshell/fellowship: Master, PvP team: Team leader) has no more subscription days on their account and their character is withdrawn.
Emergency maintenance to bring back Kaiten
SAMchads just keep on winning
>in the expansion where the future is changed
We didn't change any future. We experienced it as the present.
Her power was dumb and I wish they had never introduced it. It seems to be there simply to make the WoL and the Resistance to do dumb things to advance the plot. I do like Mikoto however.
mikoto and cid both got tainted by matsunos buffonery. LOL.
it also went back to the wol cutscenes just standing there like a moron but then they fully animating lyon killing hroths in battle. so they can do it they just dont want to.

its nice not having played any of the other FF games.
have no idea who gobez and lubricante is and i am just looking forward to it all.
I'd recommend playing them after the story finishes up. Like for instance, you could play 3 right now.
Which version of the remakes do you recommend? would be nice if i could have something portable for the early games.
People will give different recommendations because each has their own fanbase, but for 3 in particular I'd recommend the pixel remaster.
I hate it took until Pixel Remaster for us to get something close enough to the NES original. No clue why it was the only entry to be ignored when they did the Wonderswan/PS1/GBA enhanced ports.
It's a little weird that it hasn't been remade. I would say it's because the NES original was dogshit, but as you said they remake II all the time as well. I guess maybe they figured fixing II to be in a playable state was easier than fixing III.
Real talk, 90% of games never getting made are either it never getting approved because they want to focus on certain titles or nobody there wants to do it. The latter more often than the former.
>lubricante
heh
when is maintenance ending?
tomorrow
4 minutes
now
Its up now
>end of ARR before any of the expansions were out
>oh boy I hope we get to frick up Garlemald soon for all the bullshit they're doing
>almost a decade later
>finally get to go to Garlemald but it's a shadow of it's former self and it's for a humanitarian aid mission
i wanted to make the Garleans suffer...
theyre so frickin boring. good riddance. the only good garlean is hydrus, lyon, nero. they even fricked up my waifu lucia. what a monkeypaw and shitty arc.
>muh into the cold
it was shit.
All the hand wringing about Garleans in Endwalker really annoyed me. At each step they tried to frick you over too.
yoshi knew it was bad too but just made some shitty excuse for it lol.
They did suffer and they will continue to do so in the future. The victim complex they have is fricking hilarious
>shut game down for 4 hours because linkshells
Late and gay
it's UP
last post. BOZJA WAS SHIT.
kek
Is this mainly a JP issue? I don't know anyone that really uses those, most people I know just join small discords for it. Maybe hunt linkshells but that's about it.
wow that is a very specific issue
My wife Alisaie is so cute!
UP
>Somehow I'm in the top 100 of my DC for CC
That's surprising.
>tfw got top 10 at Ishgard Restoration during it's heyday by accident
I didn't even fricking do expert crafts, I just macro'd the 80 stuff because I wanted to make easy money by selling dye there
Reminder p5s only had two patterns for devour and the player base cannot do this
And you can literally stand on the opposite side of the first mark, wait two jumps, and then beeline to the opposite fricking corner for the remainder of the hops and be safe.
It's the exact same mechanic as swords in the first DR boss. Devour is actually simpler than it.
Does anyone know a good spot to get Island Hemp?
East beach
I was kinda hoping for a better spot but heh, I'll make do.
I can't wait for a good workshop plugin/tool to be released. israelitebros will be feeling it.
