Closer inspection
Apparently it only appears after you bring Zero back to the source in the new MSQ, so it likely has nothing to do with the Omicron tribe quests. So what is it?
Thats where the next expansion will take place
Is this confirmed? Some said it's there the instant you hit 6.2, others said it appears after you do the dreamscape quests.
>others said it appears after you do the dreamscape quests.
False, this was 100% not there before 6.2.
Chris-chan tier, The shards are reforming into one universe, all shard will get pulled into ours but as separate planets, populating the universe with new threats
Is there somewhere or someone that uploads just concise, to-the-point PF guides for EXs? I usually don't do them this late, I don't need some absurd 25 minute video breaking down every little thing, or an 8 minute day 1 guide that doesn't talk about current strats, but that seems to mostly be what's available. I just want to know what the PF strats are.
>it only appears after you bring Zero back to the source in the new MSQ, so it likely has nothing to do with the Omicron tribe quests
Don't you always need to be caught up on the MSQ to start the current beast tribe quests? Tying it to the MSQ is the easiest trigger condition regardless of what content it ends up being used for.
So, here we are again.
I hate how shit the Final Days were compared to this. Hell, even the First's flood of light was portrayed as more threatening of a presence.
Yeah. I think they should have taken the WOW Legion aproach to make some final days shit around the world before the expansion where everyone could participate.
But that would need to rewrite the qhole story and maybe the last shadowbringers updates
Endwalker should have been split up between 2 expacs. First half being the fall of the Garlean empire, second half being the Final Days.
So much potential that just got rushed through or completely skipped in 6.0.
Yoshida said he was contemplating on doing 2 more expansions but the reception of ShB made him decide to end the arc at 6.0 instead
>that would need to rewrite the whole story
Just time travel it lmao. "Oh no the world ended lets go back and redo it" that was the whole fricking point of elpis
Are you moronic? Going to Elpis specifically didn't change history
>you now have the knowledge to stop the apocalypse.
imagine if it didn't
Yes, you have that knowledge. Because you always went back in time, so that Venat could prepare for the future and give you the knowledge you'd need to go back and meet her
You interacted, spoke and modified the landscape while in the past.
The only way they could pass Elpis as a non-moronic timelime macguffin is if you were a observer ONLY while there. But that was not the case.
You have no argument.
>You interacted, spoke and modified the landscape while in the past.
So? You did all that because you always did all that. You didn't change history because history always had some weird fricker turn up and gather hundreds of special rocks and tungsten
>You did all that because you always did all that
Except there will be a timeline where you didn't, which confirms multiple "timelines" too.
And if there isn't, it confirms fate is set in stone and will never change, NOT even for the current future, which makes all stakes worth exactly nothing.
I had this discussion with you morons before, you can't cope with your shitty timeline story no matter what spin you put into it.
Thats complete bullshit they feed you to cope with the shit writing
>You can't change history!!!
>But go back in time and gather this lumber
>and also go back in time and save pandemonium (which affected the future)
>also Alexander does not give the slightest frick
>also Alexander does not give the slightest frick
Did you actually pay attention in the Alexander cutscenes dude. He specifically did give a frick, that entire thing was also a loop
>see every timeline and realized your existence is a detriment to the planet so you sacrifice yourself
>didn't care
what the frick are you on about.
You'd have to make everyone skip the story completely because some sprouts are so fighting Gaius when they'd notice the sky raining rocks
To fix the planet after it has been fully convered by the final days would need some major asspull. The whole story was about preventing that what happened to the acians.
This. EW """"""final days""""" were shit compared to 1.0 end
>entire story is about preventing the Final Days from happening
>it doesn't fully happen
>waah this is bad
Frick off morons.
Did they fix the music?
Fix what?
fans did
What an awful fricking video. Is this really the limit of normalgays? They think of Persona and Evanescence when they hear metal or rock for the first time, after hearing nothing but mumbling from Black folk?
Yes it really is.
Most people don't know shit about music beyond what they hear on the radio/what their friends show them
Scream is pretty blatantly inspired by Evanescence
You have to realize these are the same people that chant 'SOKEN! SOKEN! SOKEN!' when any ffxiv song comes on.

what ever happened to the billboard
Oh no not the heckin erp account
what billboard?
Why would they get banned over that?
They used Square Enix's trademarks without their permission, acted like it was an officially sponsored thing, and included datamined outfits on the billboard which were obtained by illegally hacking Square's servers.
they didnt get banned
its a club for of porn and the discord too
Because SE doesn't want their game to be advertised as a sex thing
but thats all it is to at least half of the entire active playerbase. Just like MLP, it may be designed for kids but mainly adults use it to fulfill their autistic fantasies.
oh so your just pretending to be moronic
Does this cost money to get into? If not, how do they get their money back for this?
You pay for ERP sessions

Any tips for the sphere scroll? Can i just infuse any random materia or is it possible to screw yourself over?
For the relic weapon? At this point it doesn't quite matter, only if you care about stats for level 50 content and no further. Can't remember if you can reset it, later relics you can change the stats around.
Maybe nothing much. Remember when the moon was extra shiny before EW and nothing came out of that?
I mean we did go to the moon
that was confirmed fake like a day after. The moon effect was always there.
This is a completely new part of the background
Alisaie should use the time magic that Y'shtola is using so she doesn't look like a lanky adult elezen
So now the plot is going into time-traveling and finding greater things within the world. Quiet the turn I do say.
WoL should impregnate both siblings.
Use his powers to make Alphinaud pregnant as well
No, Godbert, think of your harpy of a wife!
I hope the Hildabran relics will make use of crafters again for some of the steps
I should really start progressing through the quests for this. I've been playing so long yet I haven't touched them at all.
Do it. Kugane Ohashi is one of the best trials in the game, even if it'll take you a while to get there.
thanks anon. Completely forgot to finish Hildi quests for the relics later
I'm just not having fun anymore, this is supposed to be fun right? Every raid night is a chore and success doesn't even feel that good.
Stop playing the game then. Literally unsubscribe, that's literally what Yoshi-P would tell you.
Never found hardcore raiding fun, decided its not for me and to focus on the content in the game that I'd rather engage with. When it's a chore, it's time to take a step back and figure out what you'd rather be doing. Might take a month off to figure it out and see if ant desire springs up

I'm so tired bros, but I'm really liking this tier. I hope tree doesn't filter me tomorrow.
Cachexia 1 toolbox has been floating around PF so you should be good there. PF Cachexia 2 is doomed so you may need tank LB to cheese it as a last resort, but the safe spots are easy to teach. Other than that, the fight wasn't too bad to pug. Nothing nearly as bad as trying to tard wrangle during Devour. Good luck.
Got to 0.5% enrage on P6S in about 6 hours. Insanely faster than the the fifth floor.....honestly I would have my clear now if I didn't die to a stupid fricking choro cleave a minute before enrage.

God that expansion was painful to go through

So he was the Alphinaud of Azem's merry band, right?

SPIN OFF WITH EMET SELCH WHEN YOSHI-P
Emet Selch wake up! Lahabread fricked up big time!
Our Lahabrea and Themis is going to help us in the last part of Pandaemonium since its in the lifestream
If Themis' soul got to the source after sending us off to Elpis. Hopefully Venat brought him back.
So who's the big bad for the next tier, ffxiv's version of Jenova?
>ffxiv's version of Jenova?
We had that in 1.X, it was Bahamut
With meteor, sure. Was thinking more of the zombie horror that we're now getting with abyssos, i suppose if they'd do Jenova, it'd probably be it's own raid?
Jenova seems like they'd tuck it away for its own expansion or for an FF7 alliance-raid series. Though I also don't think they'd touch Jenova the character/entity with a ten-foot pole since FFXIV errs EXTREMELY towards the SNES era in tone, visual design, and overall philosophy.
Literally what the frick are you talking about, the fricking 2.0 and 3.0 main story bosses are both from FFVII even
Hades technically originates in VII too, though his role in XIV is more from IX.
The design is sure as frick more VII.
>bahamut is now FFVII
first final fantasy uh?
2.0 main story boss is Ultima Weapon, but even then you're a moron because the whole Meteor Project which resulted in Bahamut is also a VII reference.
illiterate frick
>Bahamut is the 2.0 main story boss

Yes, Coils is the true MSQ boss.
>Tfw they all do the same animations of each individual knight
SOUL lost on secondaries.
Whatever is causing the heat death of the universe
>Pandaemonium pops up in the lifestream in current day
>the place where souls and aether go when you die
Thay b***h Athena figured out some way to preserve her soul there this whole time and were gonna have to fight whatever new body she slips into, probably one Frankensteined together from shit left inside
She possessed Pandaemonium itself. That's what they were foreshadowing when Lahabrea said her soul probably found a new vessel by now. You can see her eyes watching from the background even.
Sounds like the third raid series will be a lot of fun.
So Elidibus (themis) forgot about us cause of the zodiark frickery, right? I haven't played in a bit
He was still a primal even after removing himself from Zodiark, and everything about a primal is subject to its worshiper's beliefs.
After the sundering he was on the verge of death and nobody remembered Zodiark so he had to find a new power source. He saw a sundered Azem's heroics and smelled the salvation-flavored faith being directed his way and decided to use it for himself by creating the myth of the Warrior of Light and then connecting the myth to himself.
Doing so fundamentally changed his primal form, so his original memories implanted by his original summoners were being overwritten.
He forgot about us because he was a senile old man who never consulted his soul crystal to refresh his memories. The Lifestream knocked the cobwebs out and it still took him a while.
While all his friends get reincarnated back to the Source, he'll be stuck in the 1st. At least he got Gaia and that other guy

Why did they stop making these, bros?
those were all made by someone on the team in their free time.
I would legit kill for them to finish up the Tactics demake of the Alexander plotline as its own game and sell it.
And I think that guy is working on FFXVI right now
>the Mana segment about a minute and a half in

Creatively bankrupt. The new raid gear is literal WoW shit.
This shit was my favorite.
8 bit version of Rise is something I need.
I.... got filtered by devour.
Isn't there a way to cheese it now? Haven't really tried this tier at all. Want to keep my sanity in place.
cheese it? you just move in 2 directions and its done
then why is that everyone b***h about that mechanic?
because they are moronic and youtube morons are releasing a ton of ways to do it
people are trying to track all 8 jumps and getting disoriented, when in reality there are only 2 jump patterns and all you have to do is figure out which corner will be safe first (by him jumping there twice)
casual savage raiders are beyond stupid and are constantly searching for cheeses and "braindead" strats despite the fact that it's easy to figure out just by rewatching a few pulls
Just did some prog for an hour and we got to getting to devour consistently before disbanded. Trying to watch the tard strat on repeat till it's burned in atm.
Really wish I could join a static but idk what shift I'll be on at work for the next month reeeee
I can do pre-devour on black mage perfectly. but the mechanic just happens too fast. I guess this is just my moron filter if the rest of the tier is like this. I'm still going to put in another 100 pulls before giving up, but it's hard.
The trick I can tell is just memorization. Don't look at that and try to remember where it's going every turn, just learn to recognize which pattern it is and how you dodge that pattern.
Hector's braindead / Luka strat video has a real good one, the one in trying to memorize. You barely move compared to the day 1 strats
my static cleared PS5 after about 4 ish hours, how much more fricky is PS6?
i think we should be fine dps wise cause everyone is in crafted and knows how to play their jobs
PS5 is twice as hard as ps6
ps6 is more forgiving when you compare it to the meme jump phase where 1 death pretty much means the pull is over

What's the best healer to play bros?
White Mage is best at actual healing and can shut down mob packs in dungeons for ~10s at a clip with Holy or Holyga
Astrologian is kinda stinky but has buffs and is very busy to play
Sage is a shield healer with a combat focus and has a skill to catch up to your moron tank that's run off ahead
Scholar is a shield healer with a nice main-attack animation that you'll be seeing a lot of
Why is she so perfect?
So going by how we're now getting patches every four months. We won't see the next expansion until summer 2023, right?
Yes, more than likely. It will at the very least be next year
Hit me with all your P5S Devour memes to help me cope with my static.
man when does this game fricking get good
just sent some whining wannabes back to their home world with minfilia
the story has been dogshit so far
best part was probably the metal gear fight, i dont get this award winning expansion meme
If you aren't enjoying it yet you should just stop playing now
yes its shit
the game is just a glorified visual novel
bros..... this deep and cutting criticism.... how will we ever recover.....
It's over. We have to go back to WoW.
>downplay any critique
>then hit with a "its just not for you"
a cult, if you will.
Look man not everything is for everyone. Just stop playing, it's no skin off my back
yea, not everyone like to eat shit, but you dont see people recommending it like you guys do.
I have literally never told anyone to play this game. What do you want me to do?
the initial msq isn't great yeah. the 'it gets better' meme is unironically true especially as you try the harder content. the story becomes more and more compelling as the writers find their footing.
they're in the HW patch quests. if they don't like it by now they should quit
the game does not really show its players what all its capable of. the main course is more cutscenes than it is actual gameplay. when you get substantive gameplay (dungeons, trials), they're often unchallenging - more of a spectacle than something engaging mechanically. you only really can get a taste for what the game is capable of at level cap. it's an unfortunate fact of the matter.
if you haven't gotten it at each game's successive level caps, you won't ever
i don't see it. OP hit 60 - what is new for him to do at the end of heavensward versus arr? you might be trying to say that if the story climaxes of each section don't compel him then he'll never get it, but the entirety of 1 - 90 right now for a new player is watching cutscenes, talking to npcs to imitate cutscenes, doing basic dungeons and trials, doing uninteresting solo duties. that's not to say the msq is valueless - its characters are often good, the plot is great, the intended spectacles are very great - but it's easy to see why some people who are more about something fun mechanically might find the msq lacking. you have to see that this is a reasonable reaction for a certain type of gamer.
xiv pre level cap is a casual game. full stop.

you're very raid brained but you ignore the raids right in your face
what's the replay value of old raids you think? collecting tokens for that tiers gear? most players do the normal raids once. there's no compelling reason to do them again outside of glamor. which certainly could be a draw, but OP doesn't seem that type of guy.
what's the replay value of current raids
there's no reason to do current raids for anything but glamor in the long run
ill concede it was the wrong point to make. people do the current savage tier because there's a degree of fun to be had in clearing a challenge and a lot of people are trying to ckear so it's easy to form a party. ive put up pfs for old savages for fun and they take hours to fill often. it's prohibitive to do old savages.
normal raids are good content just like going through a dungeon or a trial the first time is good content. because it's new. it's flashy. it might even surprise you with a mechanic or two. but theres nothing there after the magic trick has been revealed. there's no reason for anyone to ever do thordans normal trial again after the first time. the number of players who have specifically queued for thordans trial after the first clear has to be a tiny number. because it's just not interesting after it's contextual story relevance. it provides no compelling reason to do it again in gameplay
you must agree with this, right?
I agree sure but I don't see why that's a problem either.
why do anything in the game more than once? some kind of reward. could be tangible, ie "loot for my bis/glamor. i want the minion. i want the mount." could be intangible, ie "i enjoy it". most of the basic content in the game does not actually have a more than once appeal. when the playerbase is doing daily roulettes, i bet dollars to donuts most are not ACTUALLY enjoying themselves. doing stone vigil for the 20th time in leveling roulette to level my alt job is just not fun. most players will agree.
the point is thus: it sucks massively that the raw funness appeal of the vast majority of the games content is missing. for people who are about intrinsic reward rather than extrinsic reward, theres not much there. this may be a orblem endemic to the mmo genre - you'd think the most popular and lauded mmo in the current year would be so beloved because it solves this problem somewhat. it doesn't. and that's a shame.
There's no compelling reason to do savages a single time, let alone more than once, so I don't know why you're going down this road
literally nobody except for some discord rejects do old savage raids
relic grinds aren't in any shape or form raids and mhach is not a raid, its a 24 player dungeon.
Grinding Savage is one of the fastest ways to clear your HW relic.
Are you seriously telling me 2 min A1S runs for light are raids? Are you that desperate?
I don't care whether or not you think it counts in your internet fight.
>no further argument
>"lul dont care I win"

>raidtroony is also a debategay
You haven't made an argument, dipshit. "these things aren't raids because I say so" doesn't need a rebuttal
>the devs call it raids
>so they must be
You dont know what raids are, and you wouldn't know the difference because you think staying inside your ERP club /dancing is gameplay.
>mmo devs
>moron on Ganker
which of these individuals is better on this topic i wonder
not ffxiv devs
seems to be under the raid tab in duty finder. maybe your definition of raid isn't the actual definition and you're changing words to suit your purpose?
if they started calling instanced duties "raids", would you count them too?
i'm not the one changing accepted definitions of words. shadows of mhach RAID series is under the RAID tab of the duty finder, and it can come up in alliance RAID roulette.
>Raidtroony tries to come up with excuses on why he's still subbed
Lmao, most people just play the story and unsub.
Your "achievements" are worthless, because nobody respects them.

Next expansion is going to be another planet, Why else would we maintain the spacecraft? In Etheirys we have already seen all possible biomes and cultures, going to Meracydia or the New World will not bring anything new, same happens with the shards, many places of on the First look like different regions of Etheirys and the Thirteen before apocalyse was another medieval fantasy world
We are going to visit the other regions of Etheirys of course, but a full expansion dedicated to one of them? nope
We're going to fix the Dragon Star

SPEAKING OF THIS, is emet and all the ancients actually dead??? Just sounds like all of them are just sleeping in the sea with all other anicents just CHOOSING to just go there.
If they can choose when they reincarnate, I can see Emet and Hythlodaeus just hanging around until WoL dies so they can all reincarnate together. The other ancients are probably just waiting in the reincarnation queue for their chance to get reborn. Yoshi-P was kind of vague about what will happen when the unsundered are reborn.
I'd like to think this is the most likely thing. Pretty wholesome.

Yes. If you don't like a game just don't fricking play it. What is b***hing about it on Ganker going to accomplish exactly? How is that going to address your problems?
cope, seethe, dilatimate etc
I'm sorry who exactly is the one seething?
ive never seen a xommunityvifvplsyers so quick to shout diwn criticism with "just unsub bro". the reason why people care enough to complain is because they enjoy or enjoyed the game at Ike point and want it to be better. with how quick the line of "just unsub bro" is brought out, you'd think there's many people who think the game is without major flaw. all of this "it's not for you." ok, can they talk about why it's not for them? can they share their thoughts on how the game could be more for them without the defense force popping up? guess not.
I'm not saying you shouldn't share your thoughts anon. Feel free to keep complaining. I just think that if you're not enjoying yourself you should quit. I don't see why you take such offence to this advice
im not that anon. that anon thought to make the just unsub joke in their post because it's unironically one of the first things a lot of xiv players will say to criticism. when people ask for more engaging reasons to stay subbed people post the yoship quote. yes, that anon will just unsub in all likelihood. but what is really being said in every criticism post is "i like your game and want to keep playing it but you give me no reason to. if you did x y and z that would sway me." people want to give xiv MORE money and MORE time and yoship is like "well, not interested"
it's just counter to what you would expect.
admittedly i think the 6.0 patch series is showing the dev team trying to cater to every type of player. hildibrand, tataru, two ultimates, savage dungeons, island sanctuary, new deep dungeon, graphical update. they are trying to invent more reasons to keep you engaged. they're making a series effort. that's recognized by all player types. the thought should be "that's good, keep it up and do even more."
But I genuinely don't care if you keep playing or not. Why should I expend effort to convince you not to quit? Fricking moronic
why participate in any discussion about anything positive and negative points ever anon? what is the point? would the focus on whether he should be subbed or not be ignored in this discussion if only the initial joke wasn't made?
if i go make a botw criticism thread will people come and say "just don't play it?" like what even is the point of such a statement? again, we only criticize shit we care or WANT TO care about. it comes from a place of love. what is the point in speaking about subs?
>if i go make a botw criticism thread will people come and say "just don't play it?"
Yeah and those people would be right
"it's not for you" is a cope for shit games.
Don't like something? Something that is clearly of inferior quality? "Its just not for you man"
Its never shit, something can't be bad ever.
And I'm not even speaking solely of FFXIV here, a lot of things are being shilled this way. You don't like Cola? Its just not for you man.
>You don't like Cola? Its just not for you man
Yes? What the frick are you saying anon? You can say cola is shit all you like my guy, I would even agree. But that's not going to stop anyone who likes to from drinking it so what are you trying to achieve?
It enforces the idea that even with the product being shit, you can consume it. Or that you aren't part of that social group that enjoy "certain things".
Again, its the lukewarm, corporate response to try to diminish critique and makes things seems less bad than they actually are.
Thats the point.
>It enforces the idea that even with the product being shit, you can consume it
...because they can. What, should we be throwing people who buy cola into prison?
Yes, they can, we shouldn't throw them into prison, but encourage to do better. Are you trying to move the goalpost on purpose? What you dont understand truly here?
We should be saying this product is bad and shit and you shouldnt use it because of those reasons. And that by doing it you are supporting even worse things to come.
"Its not for you" is corporate response to critique.
>We should be saying this product is bad and shit and you shouldnt use it because of those reasons. And that by doing it you are supporting even worse things to come.
Ok so you've said that to a cola drinker. And then they tell you to frick off and chug another big mouthful of sugary poison. What then?
Then you pull a glock and kill them. Thats the only solution to moronation.
Is that what you want to hear?
I want to hear what you want people to say if you call the thing they like shit, anon. If "it's not for you" isn't enough then what? If they don't agree with you what is the next step?
>its shit
>why do you think its shit?
>because reason
>you're right, it is shit, what should we do to stop being shit?
but I guess being a moron and dismiss the bad with "its not for you" its easier.
>because reason
Ok and they disagree with your reason. What then?
Considering i've explained "what then?" almost 3 times now, I feel you are either trolling or just straight up moronic. Either way, if you didnt got my point or not, I guess debate just "isn't for you"
I'm not trying to debate you anon. I'm just trying to understand your position. Because not everyone is going to listen to your logical and perfectly structured arguments as to why cola is bad and they shouldn't drink it. That's just inevitable.
>change is impossible because x moron is going to do anyway.
Oh, so in this case, there is no position and no debate. You just want to create a enemy that can't be defeated. In the end, you just wanted the hero of your post to win, and since this is not my rhetoric, you can have it.
If you got the point or not, its up to you.
What are you fricking talking about? I just want to know what someone is supposed to say if they like something you don't. Clearly "it's not for you" is bad and wrong, so what?
Maybe he just wants a shoulder to cry on.
You joke but you're right. Letting someone cry out the frustration is actually better than the corporate response dismissal I'm against.
>something is bad and wrong
>so what?
Enjoy your philosophy lessons on morality.
So drinking cola is now a moral issue?
Fallacy. Which kind? Enjoy your lessons on debate.
Or not actually, you said you dont want to debate.
The entire fricking discussion was about cola. You then brought up morality.
I don't give a frick if it's a fallacy or not you autist, you're the one who made that connection
>The entire fricking discussion was about cola
I have no more energy to continue, but if that's what you got from the whole discussion, then I also have no more arguments.
Good. Take your debate autism and unironically have a nice day
>equating video games to philosophy and morality
Look, Yoshi-P doesn't post here. Nobody is obliged to give a shit and be your debate buddy over a piece of entertainment.
Where do you think you are?
Do you?
>I want to hear what you want people
Didn't read but yes gearing is shit. Item lvl gearing with legit only one set (except maybe BLM with sps) because stats don't matter is horrible. What I want? XI gearing or even ESO.
Why do you feel the need to try and convince people that enjoy something that the thing they enjoy is bad? It's entertainment, and wether something is worth someone's time can only be decided by the individual.

Nah, you're the homosexual here

But that's just your opinion
I mean, I don't enjoy fighting games at all but I don't think that means they're bad or that they should change to cater for me. Or should I think that?

I'm glad player aren't letting SE get away with it this time. I hope every single shit change they make from now on will be met by such a degree of vitriol so maybe they get a hint that the clowns in charge of job design need to be replaced. Thank you guys for letting me enjoy DRG for one more expansion.
Question, does the game on Windows share the same data as Steam? Like if I decide to play FFXIV on Steam Deck will I be able to load up my character that created on Windows?
Nope
That's sad, because I was hoping I could play FFXIV on the fly using the Steam Deck without having to create a new character.
you can install ffxiv launcher on Steam Deck too. i'm playing the game this way.
https://goatcorp.github.io/faq/steamdeck.html
Here we go
>Snorts meds straight from his desk
Zero almost an anagram of Rosa.
Paladin statue that appeared to be defending her domain. Petrification in order to protect loved ones happens in FF4.
Sequence where Rosa is passed out in a bed and needs to be offered the Sand Pearl (Sand Ruby in FF2) to return her to the party. An apple ??
Her domain is mentioned as not being in Troia but is still nearby. Closest city to Troia, barring Mist who was destroyed, is Baron.
You saw it here first.
FFXIV is never this deep in it's references, she will become Zeromus though
Too evident. Zeromus per say isn't a character of FF4 either. The villain is actually Zemus, Zeromus being only his hatred given form during the final battle.
way too deep for this game. Zero will become Zeromus and that will be your "twist"
>character has literally no similarities to Zemus
>thinking she'll turn into Zeromus because "lol Zero in the name"
Dumb as rocks
I mean, I assume if she DOES do a Zeromus, it will be because of what the story's setting up right now.
1) She has the power of memoria, like the heroes of the war before the Thirteenth turned into the void.
2) As far as she knows, voidsent transformed into memoria can't change back.
3) She doesn't know if memoria is the same thing as auracite, but doesn't think it's out of the question.
4) The heroes of the Thirteenth who sealed gods into auracite became corrupted by the auracite and used them to become powerful voidsent.
It's not like a foregone conclusion but the groundwork is there for something to happen with all that memoria she's been creating, if that's the way they want to write the story.
Cyella was also a memoria and she never went bad until after she lost that power.
I find it far more likely that Zero is going to go through an arc similar to Cecil. As we get to the point where we figure out how to start healing the 13th she'll go from Dark to Light
Not everyone with memoria had already become a voidsent by the time the Cloud of Darkness flooded the place, it was just happening to more and more of them as time went on. Like I said, though, I'm just saying that they've got an avenue to explore if they want to present Zeromus to us. They might not!
>character has literally no similarities
yes exactly, like 90% of the references in the game are surface level.
That's exactly my point. Zeromus is just the typical retro FF way of making the villain's final form have a cooler name like Neo-Exdeath. Zero also has nothing in common with Zemus.
She's obviously part of some royalty and her husband the Cecil fit-in will be Golbez.
You got it all wrong, Zero is actually going to be Necron, thats your "twist" 9gays, see me after class.
Ya homies are all wrong. Zero is a reference to Zero from Drakengard 3 and the final fight will have you DDR.
Zero is actually a Code Geass reference and she will become the leader of a new void
>rejected prime Hesperos bussy for pussy
Lahabrea got what he deserved.
How did he get to the moon?
if garleans did it with nomagic why shouldn't the biggest dick swinger in the void be able to
hes a moonBlack person
Golbez in FF4 is a half Lunarian. He uses weird crystal tech to travel around.
He jumped.
He used the aetheryte conviniently placed there
he is azem
>tfw almost rank 10 in the isle
how is your coming up??
How? Are you literally just using the bamboo strat??
>How? Are you literally just using the bamboo strat??
nope, 100% doing my daily stuff and buildings. I dont really have time for spamming nodes. You should be at least rank 9 if you started on day 1
What daily stuff? You only get exp for building, feeding and gathering unless you're constantly renovating landmarks?
>What daily stuff? You only get exp for building, feeding and gathering
Yeah just that and the workshop. I never rebuild anything
Huh? Most of your exp comes from the workshop dumbass
you are using the workshop and getting the bonuses, RIGHT????
i know people at rank 10 just from spamming nodes that cpawn clumped together.
This is gonna be cash shop exclusive isn't it
Rank 9 and 1/4. Haven't really played much on the island after the first week of grinding. The workshop will do the rest by next week
Only rank 8 but I really fricked up with my workshop for the first week or so, plus I didn't start there until I'd done MSQ and crafted new gear
rank 9, hoping i can reach 10 over the weekend
what's the bamboo strat?
I've been rank 10 for almost a week.
Show me some good looking ui/hud layouts.
S O V L
It's from the Omicrone tribe quest.
So did they say what Athena's big evil project actually was?
Some shit about wanting true immortality and being able to move from one body to another.
Something about creating a soul
Creating souls, which was the big no no the first final days was originally speculated to be about before EW
Man, Meteion still feels like a disappointment to what could have been.
Immortality of some sort. It ain't been said but I'm pretty sure it's gonna lead into them learning how to body hop. They have said they can't do that yet.
Also means the final raid tier won't be completely in the present, since we need to find out how Lahabrea completes the research into body hopping.
Being the best mother in the universe.
wonder why athena's evil plan was so dangerous that even knowing how to do it was memetic poison that made lahabrea divide himself into two
should i try island cucktuary? just finished p8s and im bored now
There are a few things that are exclusive to it so yeah
have fun clicking on shit
We have Athena to thank for teaching Lahabrea about body hopping and merging
Artist?
>was bored last night so I did a 50/60/70/80 roulette
>got amaurot
>one guy was watching the intro cutscene
>got the first timer message
Felt good to guide a first timer through that kino and what would come beyond it.
Combat in this game is so rigid that changing gearing would be impossible
People already consider 0.1 sec gcd a big difference, its funny. Making gear impact that kind of thing more would make people seethe
Sadly this is the main reason we won't have horizontal progression. So we'll just do what wow does and go up to infinity and just crunch numbers after 2 expansions.
blm and mnk are the two most soulful dps jobs in the game because your level 1 skill is a major part of your rotation all the way to max level without just being the only move you use like healers/bard
I only really play MNK but I like the Chakra RNG that requires you to adjust on the fly and how flexible you can be with different openers. I say a lot of shit about current job design and 2mins loop meme they're pushing hard but I think they did a really good job reworking MNK (even tho 5.4 version was also fun)
At least when you get leaden fist, a new animation would be cool. Also Elixir field.
end monk is definitely the best the class has ever been intentionally designed (rip tornado monk) and the only real thing you can say you miss from earlier is some of the very old hw animations and the GL aura and maybe the positionals but 2 stacks of TN and 3 RoE made them meaningless
Maybe they'll sell "animation packs" in the future for classes. That might make good money.
I'd unironically cough up money like a good little piggy to see some animations changed. Even lazily reverting abilities to previous job abilities like Storm's Path to Butcher's Block, or getting back some old DRK actions.
I have simple tastes, I want the Aero III casting animation back where the WHM kinda claps their hands over their head when the spell went off. It just felt good to cast.
Can I get none of the emotes or gear from season 1 pvp? I’m not a big fan of timed events.
They will apparently be purchasable with trophy crystals later, right now you can't though.
Is that the guy who had a huge melty and "quit" the game then came back a few months later when the asmongler wave happened?
Dynamis!
I dunno, I like that no matter how much chakra anime shit you learn you still just fricking punch someone like you learned practicing on random desert animals
true strike/snap punch definitely needed animation upgrades before arm of the destroyer though
I feel MNK doesnt have enough fist flurry abilities, only Bootshine does that. Wish we could get more...
kek I remember nado monk, that was alright. Kinda miss that feel of ramping up GL but on some fights it did feel pretty shit.
GL was dumb as frick, nothing like spending the entire dungeon building stacks only for the tank to take a piss or for a boss mechanic to go invincible for too long and you lose your stacks and become terrible
>new expert recipes
>centered has returned
>but they removed patient touch in endwalker so it's sort of shit now
>centered replaced pliant so the entire process feels horrible unless you get a high number of good procs
>malleable was kept despite being useless outside of early RS
I'm sure I saw pliant when I was experimenting earlier
pliant is definitely gone for the otter fountain
I did trial synthesis for about 45 minutes and only saw good, primed, centered, malleable and sturdy procs
I actually got a little excited when I first saw centered but then it dawned on me that they removed patient touch
You can see all the affixes available by right clicking on the recipe.
It definitely isn't, I saw pliant. Maybe it's just rare or something
kek that guy is a massive homosexual that unironically thinks New World is great
Why are Rava such bawds?
What the frick were they thinking?
I really can't stand looking at Malera.
I hope the 7.0 updates improve the meshes as well as the textures and shaders.
>femroes and thighlanders finally won't have crap faces
Please let it happen.
It's too much. Because of the game's chosen artstyle the updated models are going to look way more uncanny valley than the WoW WoD update ever did.
Frick having this. I’d rather not improve the graphics and sort their storage system out so we can have infinite storage with a real glam storage
Graphic improvements are easy, the engine is already capable of more than it currently does so all that's needed is making the new texture assets and tuning for consoles.
Unfricking the character data integer would mean reworking 8 years worth of bandaids and patch jobs and hoping everything still works. After the whole Ishgard housing lottery frickup simply because there was a 0 too many there's no way something like that will be greenlighted in risk analysis.
>Because of the game's chosen artstyle the updated models are going to look way more uncanny valley than the WoW WoD update ever did.
This. I don't get graphic gays. XIV will never look like modern korean mmo
You can do most of what they plan to do with gshade, it'll be fine
I'd be happy if they unfricked most of the faces so people don't feel like they only have one or two choices on creation.
devs hate white scale aura
maybe they shouldnt have given them cum scales
How did they make controller work so well in an mmo? I can’t go back and I’m not even sorry.
It just werks
Indeed. Coping with animation mods in the meantime. Bootshine and True Strike are actually fun to press now.
What animation pack/mods do yo uuse for MNK?
I use a little bit of the Ideal Monk Actions pack: https://files.catbox.moe/j215t9.zip . You can youtube 'ideal monk actions' to see what they look like.
ive leveled nin gnb and mnk
what should i try next
Tomorrow I will finally be able to play the game after 2 weeks, what's the current state of pf?
still mostly stuck on p5s
It'll look uncanny because of the higher fidelity.
Imagine derplander with high res face wearing Labyrinth raid gear, or high res Hien with his pixelated robe. Not even mentioning the environments.
They're upping the resolution on old gear too.
and still not giving hrothgar helmets
Good, Hrothgays deserve to suffer
>Literally just the models we already have but with better fidelity.
And even more plastic looks.
fidelity is BAD for XIV.
>Graphic improvements are easy, the engine
The engine is the reason why XIV is full of ass.
>The engine is the reason why XIV is full of ass.
I thought that was the trannies and the erp discords?
PS3 and PS4 are the reason XIV is full of ass. The engine is a branch off the Luminous engine and they're reusing it for XVI.
What's the problem with this screenshot? I love the look of Radz-at-Han

Can PF agree on one fricking strat for cachexia? This going to be a shitshow next week.
Please go back to smaller ARR areas because the big empty ones are ugly.
Newish player here. So how do I properly do coils in 2022? I just go down this raid finder list one by one?
yes. get a friend if you get to something you can't solo
Thanks for the suggestions.
How 'properly'? If you want something close to the original experience then you'll have to make friends or possibly get really lucky and find a minimum iLvl group. If you just want to clear the fights then put up a party finder for story run throughs and people will probably jump in and help.
Get to 90 and unsync. No need for other players. There is nothing there except story.
lol
go into the party finder and make a group to do them, I see groups for synced coils all the time
shut up b***h
You can EASILY solo all coils at 90
For what purpose? This is XIV. You use DF. It doesn't matter. You will get a party because of how DF works.
>wasting another persons time
>for nothing but cutscenes
You meant PF.
I mean, you can, but why would you?
>wasting another persons time
>for nothing but cutscenes
This is entire point of DF. If you're queuing to DF you should do your job. Those "other people" are just a tools. All they want is fast free tomes.
Thats not the point of DF, in fact, you can't unsync DF and you will NEVER get a party on queue.
You either get to 90 and solo kill everything or make a PF for someone to carry you.
>unsync DF
Who fricking cares about unsync DF? You will never experience old raids. Unsync raids are joke because game mechanics, skills are different. And sync raids are just unsync in BIS.
Thats... my point? Thats why you solo or get carried?
What the frick are you crying about moron?
Wait a second moron. They did make Coils part of MSQ or no?
The MSQ acts as if you've cleared coils either way
There's just additional dialogue if with Alisae in stormblood if you actually have since she was absent through all of HW
I thought Coils were added in MSQ and duty roulette in EW so everyone can do them in DF.
No, its just that moronic schizo that thinks you can get a party in DF
It's literally (Me) you, moron. It's fricking logical to believe they added Coils to MSQ in EW after what they did to Crystal tower.
Yes, but they didnt. And wont. Probably something to do with "too much work".
And considering they moved to reworking HW already, its even more unlikely coils will get reworked as a normal raid.
>its logical to believe they added something that isn't mandatory to MSQ to MSQ roulette
No anon it really isn't
Coils are important to the story, characters and lore.
Sure, but it's still not mandatory to MSQ
>And sync raids are just unsync in BIS.
some of the ex trials are a lot easier with max ilvl but most of coils is pretty close to the item sync and level 50 tank/healer kits are a lot less forgiving of shit like bahamut and nael then an unsync would be even if the stats were at the same level
yes, but nobody do ex trials for the story, there is even less reason to do a older ex trial.
except for birds i guess
how about fun you dumbfrick. imagine grinding for mounts you wont even use
if I wanted fun, I would just frick your father
>You use DF. It doesn't matter. You will get a party because of how DF works
The frick are you saying? Coils isn't in any of the roulettes. You will literally never get a full coils through DF
You can solo Alex Prime too.
Won't you still get instakilled in t9 if you arent fast enough
No.
I mean, you will if you stand there like a moron, but pretty much one shot everything even with the basic free 90 gear.
Get 7 others, set it to MINE and maybe remove a couple accessories to compensate for jobs being overtuned.

twink hythlodaeus was a mistake.
prease undastando
Hythlodaeus was revealed to look gayer and twinkier than even the most fujobaity fanarts. It's incredible.
Just from how whorish and loose Hythlodaeus looks, I had the thought of making a joke doujin where Hythlo has sex with the female congregation memebers and including meteion. Emet would just be in the background of it all having a confused look and in disgust of how much a prostitute his friend is being. Too much work for a joke, but honestly I would try just from the laughter
>webm related
>smart enough to be emet selch tier
>realizes his own limitations
>trolls his good friend into becoming emet selch
>now a twink
>harmless and cant even transform
>made to make ugly women with greasy hair clap
>his mystery homie form still has more charisma than his twink
yea him being an old man like yoshi thought was the correct choice. he was too nice to his female staff.
When he was just a mystery homie I imagined him as a jovial older man. I liked him more that way.
>old man hythlo
What kino we missed out on bros....
The women already had Emet, why be so greedy
Just latch on to Lahabrea. He's old enough to soothe your daddy issues.
How would him being old make sense when he's supposed to be best friends with Emet and Azem?
Elidibus's best friends were Lahabrea and Igeyorhm. Why not? They all live for like a million years.
age is nothing to the mystery homies. they can transform into anything. theyre all human to be communists.
and cant even transform
I thought hythlo was actually something to be afraid of from his way of thinking? He can't be weak if he was offered the title of Emet Selch.
He was offered the position because he can naturally see the Lifestream and because he's a really smart guy. He's just shit with magic so he thought Hades would be better for the position.
>Give the wizard nerd that autistic about our ways the position
He knew what he was doing kek
He's also really lazy and sees his place in life as pushing his friends forward while he takes a position in the rear. Even if he wasn't shit-tier magic wise, he probably would have suggested that Hades get the position as Emet.
Speaking of magic, I wonder how strong Nabriales in his prime would have been. The lorebook says that he was the big dick among the Ascians in knowledge of the dark arts, he just didn't have the raw power of Lahabrea and Elidibus (now we know it's because he was sundered and they weren't).
I really want to see proper final boss forms for every Convocation member at some point.
I want to know what duties nabriales is supposed to oversee
he and deudalaphon were the only ones we weren't told what their role in the convocation was
The list of their duties we were given really bothers me.
>Lahabrea is the Abyssal CELEBRANT
>from Elidibus's Echo visions we know he was the Convocation Speaker, fitting with his title of Celebrant
>but actually his official role is to be the master of creation magic
How does that make sense? Why is Mitron the Chastiser the title for the master of sea life?
>He's also really lazy and sees his place in life as pushing his friends forward while he takes a position in the rear
Are there people like this in real life...I see people call him the ultimate best friend, but it doesn't seem to really do anything for him. Idk, i'd rather have my friend walk side by side with me than behind me
Hythlo runs the Bureau of the Architect where every concept is recorded and held on file, so it's not like he's just a NEET wasting his life.
>implying it wasn't another one of Azem's goddamn pranks
The way Hythlo acts I feel like he'd consider taking the position, but the moment Azem mentioned it would be funny if he recommended Hades for it instead he was completely on board
i think all ancients can transform they just included that so they didnt have to make a future hythloadaeus transformation question i guess. or saving it? i dunno.
Legit thought he was a girl until he opened his mouth.
>twink Hythlodaeus was the only correct choice
Fix'd that for you
>Emet wins with more then 1000 than Hythlo
May it stay like this
Is anyone excited for the criterion dungeons?
I don't know enough about them to be

"I was sad :(" doesn't get you a pass on the enormity of his brand of frickups.
>God forbid he just commit suicide
Did you miss the whole point of why he was sad?
Hermes ruining everyone else paradise is like when the one kid in the class room ruins it for everyone else.
He not only ruined it on Eitherys, he ruined it everywhere, granted most places were already fricked before his mistakes doomed them but who knows how many perfectly functional societys got sang to death.
That sounds like a challenge.
perhaps I am wrong
but who is to say that you are right?
He's Ganker, alright.
It's worth a shot.
For the good of the star...
He forgot the existence of sad meteion so I think he was kinda sad the final days happened but secretly happy too that people started to feel sadness and despair like him
I wish they released more short stories about him and lahabrea too since hes pretty interesting now
he quite literally did everything wrong
should've developed the ssri concept instead of meteion

Even grand ending of main XIV storyline in ew doesn't have unique CGI despite the scale of events.
I was really thinking we'd get another CGI cutscene for EW. Disappointing.
Is it even possible to clear p5s in PF with all this wuitters and pleople who can't count to 4.
Is it weird that I imagine Azem as Norm Macdonald?
norm wasnt a fight autist morons try to make azem as. azem was a regular autist.
Only raidgays think Azem was a fight autist because they're projecting
In other news, Hermes found out that the universe wasn't as nice as he thought it was...because he tried to kill it.
>"I once walked in on Lahabrea and Athena merging souls. It was the most embarrassing thirty minutes of my life!"
Starting to realize the writing in all of FF14 is kinda hit or miss, and honestly just having a singular character that I like has been carrying me throught he game. The scions are kinda boring to me. Everyone praises the writing but it's just okay to pretty good at best. Not godtier writing.
alisaie and graha simp tia need to frick off. eveyrone else has good parity and bounce back and forth off each other. i just wanted to do that with the b and c team scions or some waifus like in ff 11.
>alisaie and graha simp tia
This. I dislike graha the most just from him simping too much. I like men, but this is just getting to be a bit much even for me. Why did they write him like this. He seemed respectable at first, but now he just is a little kitten following us around.
I wish I had the version of XIV that you guys seem to have where G'raha is sucking the WoL's dick in each scene that features the two of them.
Its the SE version, you should try playing it sometime
Mine must be broken then because for the amount of complaining people do I have yet to see a single dick-sucking scene. Or am I supposed to become enraged over the at most five scenes that could count as G'raha "simping" over the WoL.
Every time you interact with him, he is simping for your dick.
You should try skipping less cutscenes
I can't possibly imagine what happened in your life that could make you think that two guys interacting in a friendly manner equals simping for dick.
next you're going to say Gaia and Ryne weren't gay for each other
I guess you think Thancred and Urianger are fricking too.
But they are.
Name ONE current game that's on par with XIV's writing
Didn't play it but I did play Xenogears which I enjoyed.
>several
So post them.
Black person, i'm not going to go through a catalog of vns in a dying thread.
SWTOR story alone is way better than this shit, with branching paths too. But you won't hear it because you dont know better, you just want to shill
>SWTOR
Not current in the slightest. I award you ZERO points.
>hurr durr its my definition of current
Black person
>SWTOR story alone is way better than this shit
lol
lmao
> WOHHH GOT A RARE DO DAH RIGHT HERE
Character interactions and small moments are fantastic but the main story suffers from so many characters being as vague as possible about the most mundane shit. I had no clue what half of what the main character was spouting sometimes.
It doesn't help that it goes to complete shit during the penultimate chapter, and the main villain and ending are incredibly weak in comparison the the previous games.
several, because xiv writing isn't good.
especially considering other vns
>current game
I see what you did anon, though you know past games have had better writing than this.
Yes I know exactly what I did. Now gimme some examples.
Aren't a bunch of XI devs working on XIV or have worked on XIV at some point?
>Aren't a bunch of XI devs working on XIV or have worked on XIV at some point?
Pretty sure most of the XI devs got moved onto XIV, yeah. Now there are only like three full time XI people and they just rent people from the XIV team if they need something unusual done.
FFXI is still running so does that count as current?
Elden Ring.
While Elden Ring's written dialogue and worldbuilding is not bad I'm gonna have to disagree when it comes to writing a coherent story. From what I heard even the usual Soulsgay lore nerds have given up trying to piece together ER's schizo plot.
>when it comes to writing a coherent story
and since when FFXIV writing is coherent? Did you not played past SB?
What? XIV's coherency is fine.
The vast majority of people who beat ER have no idea there was even a story happening.
>unless the story is written in a cutscene, its not coherent
Black person
>go chosen undead/ashen/tarnished and kill the big bad and become god
It's the same fricking shit every Souls game and I'm sick of homosexuals pretending like they are masterfully crafted stories that gave you LE CHILLS and moved you all to tears. The fact that you can kind of glean what the ACTUAL story should have been from all the cut content makes it worse.
ffxiv lorelets writing about other games is hilarious
Go be a butthurt Soulsbab somewhere else
I've been a soulsgay for years but I'm not tribalist mindbroken enough to not recognize the games' storytelling is a fluke of arbitrary vague nonsense that depends and relies entirely on community headcanons to make sense.
>relies entirely on community headcanons to make sense.
so exactly xiv since shb.
List up the plotholes then.
I thought of one actual plothole a few months ago but I forgot it.
Wow you're REALLY mad that someone criticized a Souls game.
souls fans are even more culty than xiv
Seethe level: [MAX]
Elden Ring, and by extension most Souls games' story is not coherent. These games have a tendency to get half their plot rewritten in the last few months of development depending on what's finished or not, as evidenced by all the cut content remnants in the game files.
>From what I heard even the usual Soulsgay lore nerds have given up trying to piece together ER's schizo plot.
That's just because they're occultlets and they got filtered by having to have some actual knowledge.
It helps when you have low standards.
Azem was fishing during the final days
Question, but why in the world was the ancient world going to end? What exactly were they facing again to even say 'BROS WE NEED TO SACRAFICE HALF OUR PEOPLE TO KEEP GOING'
Just go back and watch the cutscenes you skipped
>people love to say other games have better writing
>never list them
In terms of MMO, I really can't think of one because this game is my first mmo, but with the writing, it's alright but not the greatest of all time. It's shonen tier which I don't mind, but isn't my taste.
People shitting on XIV's writing never seem to produce comparable or better examples. It's a pattern.
I'm not shitting on the writing, really it's just not for me from the 'muh power of friendship' writing it has. I'm being held by a string with everything from one or two characters and I know they die later on in the story
barely a mmo
Then what is it then?
The best damn Final Fantasy game since IX.
A VN with social media on the side. But it sure as frick isn't a proper mmo
unironically ff4 has better writing than this game because it has story and gameplay that are very woven together
When it comes to MMO's the Imperial Agent storyline in SWTOR is the closest I know of.
Vidya in general FFXIV is still pretty high up but there's still stuff like Legacy of Kain, Planescape: Torment, KOTOR, Grim Fandango, Bioshock, Witcher 3's DLC etc.
I enjoy all of SWTOR's class storylines.
shame about the expansions to those stories however, needing to crush what is essentially 8 characters into one basically fricks it.
Yeah, everything post base game only makes sense for the force-user classes.
>KOTOR
You mean 2, right? KOTOR 1 was basic b***h shit.
XI and GW1
>GW1
Listen man, GW1 was serviceable and solid but let's not go full moron.
More screen time soon
why would I ever play any caster dps besides black mage when it does the most damage, has the best movement, has the most interesting rotation and is the most forgiving to die as?
>new raid tier absolutely buckbroke pf and disbanded a bunch of ecelebs' statics
I fricking kneel
>ffxiv ecelebs even have enough clout to get their own party
no wonder the game is dead
what the frick happened to these guys groups to warrant this
I mean, it's Mr Crappy.
he's almost certainly the weakest link in a given static, he's been booted from them before, and single handedly ruined a fight for an entire patch in the past by publishing an incorrect guide.
>and single handedly ruined a fight for an entire patch
>a fight
He's done it like 3 or 4 times at this point.
I hate that people use his "guides", even when they're right he's a dipshit who can't get to the point and rambles needlessly.
Skip soar or disband
Its possible. I've gotten 9K so far this week and the week isnt even over yet.
>I just wanna let you know... that I am so fricking happy that I never have to fricking raid with your dumb ass ever fricking again. You are the worst fricking player I have ever played with and the audacity to fricking make fun of us on your stream and not to our fricking faces is fricking LOW. You understand what fricking low is? You're low. You're lower than fricking dirt. Your fricking viewers are a bunch of fricking casuals that have to feel bad for you just a fricking dogshit player. You understand me? You're a fricking dumbass little casual. Oh frick it she caused a wipe. I don't give 2 flying fricks. You are the worst fricking greediest fricking player I have ever dealt with. And you say fricking over here "my previous static said I was greedy" Yes you fricking are cus you never hold. You make everyone hold for your dumb ass and you expect us to fricking pay for your shit when you don't even know how to pay- play your fricking class. "I've fricking been playing this game for 8 fricking years" and it doesn't show EnoChan. I am tired of your shit. You don't take criticism. You don't fricking take advice. Every time we give you advice, you pull the stupid "I know, but I did this, I know". You know how many times we fricking wiped to DOTH because your stupid ass? Because you don't know how to fricking get knocked back correctly? And you have the audacity to fricking laugh about us on your stream? I am SO glad that you are not going to be raiding with us in 6.2 and I fricking yknow hope that no one wanted to raid with you in 6.2 either because you're a dogshit player.
>Fricking worse than me and I'm a one-trick. I hope your stupid fricking stream enjoys watching your casual ass fricking gameplay because that's all you fricking deserve. I am so fricking happy I never have to hear your voice ever again cus this was the worst fricking raiding experience since we started in savage and I knew how fricking shitty of a player you were because of that shit. So fricking tired of your bullshit.

Woops and Ferro cleared, Happy has no excuse
how the hell does groove increase?
I thought i spam 4 hour items on the first day to get it up quick. after the first item i had 3 groove so i thought it's 1 groove per craft.
But by the end of the day i only had 15 when i in total they crafted 18 items.
Same on the second day. crafted 12 items, got 9 groove. every craft past the first had efficiency bonus.
And how big is the bonus from it anyway? is it worth it to waste the first day spamming 4 hour items? i've seen it got up to a maximum of 35 now with the last landmark.
Groove goes up each time you get an efficiency bonus. So the first item crafted every day doesn't increase groove
Just FYI for anyone curious, I looked to see what a minor effort week would bring in for blue coweries. Almost 0 effort as long as you set your 3 workshops to mass production of 1 item for the entire week and do your weeklies, you can get 9,000 per week. Meaning you can get the motorcycle in 3 weeks at rank 10 if you start with nothing.
>9000 per week
I call bullshit
Seems to be correct to me. I can make 12-14k a week if I put in the effort to be optimal.
its easy to get 2000+ a day
It's not hard to get blue coweries once you get things rolling. It's set up where you can have everything automated and only check in once a week.
finally, post more
i want lalas
I recognize those nipples. I saw them on a Yuffie nude.
Welp I give up on trying list and just say the writing ain't mah cup of tea. Though seriously, if this is the best, then what does that say for the future of games like these if this is what is at the top.
The future is Japanese as always
japan trooned out
West is cringe 99% of the time anyway
if people want good writing then they should read a book
