>relic weapon step is just have tomes again
I've not been since the first tier of savage stuff. Not looking forward to slogging through all the msq shit if 7.0 does look promising.
What's the difference between being forced to do the Alexander raid 20 times or just do any raid you please to gather tomes?
Honestly online guides ruined this type of quests. Back in the day the way this worked was you got some cryptic hint for what you were supposed to be doing, then you experimented until you got results.
>you have to actually do quests >for tomes
Don't kid yourself dumbfrick. You log in, do your 20 minute roulette that you'd do either way, and then you get your free """"relic"""" weapon. Remember when these were supposed to be ultimate weapons that you had to actually earn over a lengthy, demanding quest?
And it was dogshit to farm. Oh yeah let's do another 60 Heavensward FATEs and 15 Crystal towers to get a weapon that is not even BiS and only became BiS at the very last patch. So engaging.

We had two expansions of relics having whole massive pieces of content built for them and if you're one of the Black folk who went and did 60 FATEs instead of doing the actual fricking content then do the world a favor and blow your brains out. And then blow your brains out again for being the type of moronic fricking cattle that thinks quality is determined by convenience.

People don't really miss the "grindyness" of the old relics, they miss the fact that the relics used to actually be a long term goal instead of another "just login and do your daily lmao" type of content.
They (and I) miss the exploration content the most though, Eureka and Bozja is some of the best content this game has ever seen with a surprising amount of replay value and varied fights simply thanks to the slightly deeper RPG mechanics and the better use of FATEs. If the core game had atleast 1 of those things in the open world then that would fix the issue, but the devs seems to be extremely afraid of giving players any amount of gameplay customisation or any type of challenge in anything that is even remotely connected to the MSQ. If anything IS has cemented this into my brain while Criterion and the new DD have shown me that they are also extremely afraid of PvE experimentation since both are literally just "what if we take shit that already exists and just make very minor changes to it?"

Thanks Tataru, you fricking spud.
I only spent an hour there before realizing it was gonna be a treadmill for autists and as the months pass I get the feeling I was 100% right to ignore it
>it was gonna be a treadmill for autists
the same could be said of MMOs in general. Its not a huge time investment once you get it set up, and it has a lot of fun glams/mounts/minions. The worst part is the mammets are mouthy in a weird reddit way, which I do not appreciate.
Today, I leveled my alt's Botany, Mining, and Fishing to from 0 to 40, and their Leatherworking from 0 to 72. While watching/listening to Twitch musicians on my second monitor. I also grilled hamburgers and hot dogs on my porch during a thunderstorm and they were delicious.
Yeah? It's not like I'm out of things to do. There's EXs to do, savages to try to do, jobs to level, crafting and gathering stuff to work on, pvp stuff to try out that isn't FL, etc.
Well at least we are getting two more trials (the fanfest one and 6.5) and two more criterions. Still got TEA to do as my last ultimate and level other jobs to 90.
The way the story is going we wont get the hook for 7.0 til 6.55 part 2 story. >finish up Zeromus >tease 7.0 teaser >Part 2 full hook story line to 7.0
Yeah. I think with Golby the only interesting thing is if Zero makes it out and comes with us. Other than that it seems like the Archon thing Thancred and Urianger spoke of might be the hook for 7.0?

Far as i could tell they want to close loose ends up of Ascian & Ancients story arc.
They could do a lot with a relaunh of the game in 7.0 with better leveling than ARR.
Basically you can choose to play ARR or you can choose to play 7.0 is what i would expect. I doubt we will hear much of that stuff from pre end walker again overall.
The way the story is going we wont get the hook for 7.0 til 6.55 part 2 story. >finish up Zeromus >tease 7.0 teaser >Part 2 full hook story line to 7.0
It's for Hildibrand, speedreaders. They literally already mentioned it at the end of the last available quest. With Lugae's guy saying that they were going to have to draw on divine power. The primal is Asura.
This piece of shit is not canon. Horrible fricking story, horrible content, powercreep bullshit across the board, beginning of the 'end' for the game along with Abyssea. Why did WotG have to suck bros...
Imagine paying money to be subscribed to a second life dating sim with gays and trannies. The only people that are playing are the ones carrying a ball and chain to their house, or are trapped in a mindset of autistic collecting that will never end. It's evident that more and more stuff are going onto the store rather than in the game, while at the same time adding less content to the game and people just continue to eat this shit up. Unsubscribe while you can or just play when there are free campaigns, SE is a dogshit company that doesn't deserve any money.
>Imagine paying money to be subscribed to a second life dating sim with gays and trannies.
You do realize that second life has trannies gays furries and the rest of the degenerates you could find in LL without even having to mod your shit
The rebalances are one thing but the score reduction low key killed the fricking mode, every single change buffed premades and snowballs. But this one is the worse because you know they will not revert it
I will never understand people changing what their character looks like. I haven't even used the free fantasia you get for finishing ARR. It isn't the same character if you do that.
Nothing to do in the game aside from that. Also most people that do that look like absolute disgusting lardbuckets. Wish i had the ff14 collage of all the troons on twitter saying how they look like their character and all of em fat balding weirdos.
there is nothing to do in the game and the trannies keep grooming people. so they start having body dysmorphia and shit so they spend thousands on fantasias
I don't understand how people do this.
I fantasia'd exactly once from midlander to viera because the only thing I wanted since starting ARR was my own Fran to dress up in pretty and/or loose clothes and pretend she's my wife.
>how the frick do you guys decide what race to play?
you get a chance to change for free when you beat ARR, so don't stress it. Just choose whatever feels good.... man.
there are no racials and stat differences are miniscule. just pick whoever you think looks coolest. it's not like ff11 where being a galka mage or a taru tank was actually a pretty big downside
Races may as well be purely visual in this game. Hyur or Miqote if you care about having as much gear as possible look good on you, otherwise whatever you think looks cool, cute, or whatever else. Elezen animations are not for everyone, and both Viera and Hrothgar have limited access to hairstyles and displayed headgear. You get one free fantasia to change your race if you can make it through A Realm Reborn without buying a story skip.
You motherfrickers preorder the Encyclopedia Eorzea III yet? I bought and read the first two, and i'm so happy we're finally getting the third. I think it might be my single favorite piece of video game merchandize of all time, a thick, high quality book, written entirely in-world, with pages that look slightly faded for style, containing mountains of cool information about the world. Wish more games would make stuff like this.
There actually is a lot of hair options for Viera now.
They've almost got everything everybody else does. There's only 11 hairstyles they're still locked out of. One of them is the Cloud Strife hair almost nobody owns anyway, one of them is Noctis, one is the male Eternal Bonding haircut, and four of them are cash shop only haircuts tied to Scion/Aymeric outfits.
Of hairstyles you can actually acquire in game, they only have four left to add.
Afro, Gyr Abanian Plait, Ramza, and OP's.
only four faces per race for any non-hyur
less hairstyles than any non-hrothgar race
as for the patched in hairstyles, barely any look good on viera due to the amount of forehead
less headgear than hrothgar, who already lose out on most headgear
people are going to narrow in on a single design all the way down to glamour very quickly. face 1 is the one that looks acceptable without any adjustments in the character creator so that's what the majority went with.
It's crazy how your face can change in a few months if you feel like shit. >Have cute pristine face >Work in a kitchen 15 fricking hours a day for 4 months >Permanent Zombie face
Never work anons.
Why do you guys keep using this specific shot of this character? First impression it looks like she is trying to be cute but actually watching the boring ass cutscene is something entirely different. Is the joke that it is so odd? For all the praise you people give for the story in this game, its pretty mediocre.
The actual criterion normal mode is fun mechanically but it's a very small piece of content with no real reason to do it more than once. Variant is whatever.
the first one has fun fights, but the rewards aren't that great and you can just buy them off the MB anyway, so there's no reason to do it more than once
Lol no, it’s also a proof current team has no idea wtf they’re doing. >advertise is a mid core content for people that want a slightly harder challenge >it’s actually a savage tier bossrush mode that requires fully pentamelded bis gear
Nice “mid core” content.

Nice “mid core” content.
Criterion normal is EX level difficulty and has literally no rewards. Criterion savage is a little higher than savage difficulty and has again literally no rewards.
if you're not dat bad, its your problem anon
if your tankxiety wont let you talk to people and make a party, its your problem anon
sounds like you should just off yourself
All versions of the dungeon is currently dead though, all for a slightly different reason than just "muh rewards" >Variant is dead thanks to being piss easy to solo and actually being harder to do with randoms thanks to the complete lack of communication skills in the community >Criterion is dead thanks to being just slightly too hard for randoms to complete but being piss easy for anyone who has ever completed any current tier savage raid(s) >ASS is dead because it requires Savage levels of coordination while being much more punishing AND having such shit rewards that no one ever wants too touch it again after clearing it once or twice
It's easier to get it off the marketboard, easier as in the gil you'd spend on it would take less time to obtain than actually spending time farming the dungeon for it to drop.

yes, and its not that expensive, its much much time efficient than wiping 60 times to a boss because you have to herd 3 other pug morons who never set foot on savage
the rez handcap is too much if you are not doing it with an actual group of raiders
New deep dungeon also makes me think they have no clue what they're doing >content that 90% of players only experience for leveling with a very small but dedicated community of people who enjoy soloing and high scoring them >add a new one that is shit for leveling AND is unenjoyable to the smaller niche community because they completely changed the fundamentals of what made the older ones enjoyable
and now its literally dead content you have to sit in a 2 hour queue to even get a group for one set
It's baffling to me that they think the game needs more ways to level and not more meaningful content to actually go do. Why would they release a third deep dungeon that's basically the same thing and not try to expand on it or evolve it?
the new deep dungeon is >too difficult for uncoordinated noobs >too boring and slow and sterile for DD solo community to want to clear it more than once
I could go into exactly why but its not really the point. They are going to cite Eureka being dead content even among the soloers as justification for them scrapping yet another piece of content that isn't raiding or erping
I liked how they added a coils mechanic to the floor 40 boss. You know, that optional content that 90% of the playerbase never played and those that did either blasted trough as level 90 unsynced or the even smaller group of people that did it legit.
Me and my friend never set foot inside again after the boss killed us in 1.5 seconds.

It's not that much harder than normal Nael and doesn't compare to ultimate. Meteors? Try doing cursed Sanctity first.
Heal check? Tank LB1 2nd stardust and sac the stack on the heavensfall + meteors + spread. I'd say it's harder now than in ARR because of how crippled healing and mitigation kits are at 50.
I bought base game + xpac on steam sale to play on steam deck, and the shit won't let me sign in with my existing pc account that has game + xpac also. Why the frick not?
you cannot be RDM from the beginning
need to be level 50. Also since it's an SB job it's not available to free trial players
Yeah, you can change jobs at any time, just change your weapon
>make a game where every piece of content from the previous expansion becomes pointless >make a game where almost every piece of content during the expansion becomes pointless about halfway through >stop releasing content for that expansion halfway through
Someone please explain to me the modern MMO design philosphy? FFXI wasn't like this.
after the HW normal raids filtered 80% of the playerbase Yoshi went full frick it and made the game braindead easy. starting in stormblood raids were easier, job homogenization started, removal of TP and cross class skills, etc
difficulty aside, I think it would still lead to the same result. They added Ultimates, which are harder than most things in any game, but people still get bored out of their minds. I think it is because the grindy / social sort of events expire within one expansion, if not half an expansion. Same with rewards being a one-way power-up.
Nothing beats A1-8S and especially midas in difficulty. EW raids are not even harder than Alexander. In the end raiding is pointless in ff14 though. All of the gear is useless anyway. SB really killed the game in many ways by appealing to complete braindead monkeys and killing most classes because shitter tanks and healer didn't want to deal dmg.
>Nothing beats A1-8S and especially midas in difficulty
They would be cleared just as fast as modern savage if you released them now with no gear gating
TP was a fricking garbage resource and actively punished any kind of stat spread that made use of skillspeed. This also meant that any and all haste buffs were actually punishing to the player, as opposed to beneficial. Giving more classes access to Goad was a bandaid fix.
It was twice as bad during dungeons because melee jobs, including tanks, burned through their TP twice as fast by simply using their AoE skill(s), and the simple act of using Sprint drained your TP entirely, meaning melee jobs got punished for that too while casters got away completely free.
TP was fricking trash and removing it was a wise decision. >t. been subbed since 2.1
lets be honest, the only people who complained about TP removal were casual morons who couldnt manage it.
then they complained and all mana management also got removed
the only job who had any saying in TP was MNK and they could verywell just fix MNK instead of trivialize the skill
Out of all of those changes, the removal of TP was the only one that wasn't stupid. I am, to this day, convinced that there is bare minimum - and often zero - communication between the departments within XIV's dev team.
XI belongs to what at this point can only be defined as a different genre, as would most of the pre 2004 MMOs. What you see today uses the same genre title but isn't the same type of game and isn't trying to be the same type of game.

It has some really awful moments that feel like they just went with the first take. Every time I have to hear 'THE WORLD SHALL TREMBULLLLLL' or 'THIS WUUURLD MUST BE MADE ANEW' in p12s I consider switching to jp voices.
I have been continuously subbed since 3.1 and have no reason to drop it now
I make the money to pay a year's sub in one day so I literally don't even think about it
every time I catch up on XIV's main content and a select few distractions like relics, mounts, Blue Mage style dumb fun bullshit, I unsub and switch to XI, been doing it since like 3.1.
That said with Adoulin almost wrapped up and the fight with Cloud of Darkness ready to go I'm almost finished with that too, the charm of continuously finding new places to explore and new things to do in XI for literal years finally dried up. There's TVR, but everything else in XI nowadays is purely based around gear progression and I'm not into the game enough for that.
Yeah because there is much I haven’t done yet so I’m not worried about content. I also own a house so I don’t want to lose it. Hanging out with my fc is also pretty fun.
I accidentally my steam folder and lost all the 1100+ screenshots I took while doing the MSQ, I'm considering playing it all over just so I can retake them
>10 months of no content
i cant believe they'd be that insane
either they're gonna skew the expansions releases back to mid-years like before the EW pandemic delays or we're getting a 6.6 patch because they've talked about the idea of .5 not being the last one for like three expansions now
Yep. There's content patches, new raids, new dungeons, seasonal events, and all sorts of other shit to do all the time. The expansion release is a drop in the bucket compared to the content added between expansions. Why wouldn't you?
I’m almost done with heavensward. It’s been so good. The slog of ARR was worth it. Best jrpg I’ve played in years. I’ve heard stormblood isn’t as good, but ahadowbringers makes up for it. That means there’s still like 90+ hours of story content to get through. I love it. I love ff xiv
I agree with this guy. Stormblood's MSQ is a little awkward. Not bad, but you can clearly identify the spots in the MSQ you'd dread doing again on hindsight. The side-content is fantastic, though.
For me, it's the post-clear catharsis after finally getting through P6 without someone choking on exasquares. Makes me want to try experiencing DSR kino at some point.
Why is the LC in P12S such a pain? Like the PF I find can't get there half the time and the other time some times the lasers just don't go out when they should. It feels like everything just goes out too fast to adjust.
Every now and then, you will just get an absolutely cursed pattern. For the most part, it's just a matter of paying attention to when the lasers go out and pre-positioning asap. Also doesn't help that it's week 5 and all the competent players are done.
Always keep vision on the mid add to see when lasers go out. That way you're always cognizant of whose turn it is by the time it's your turn to bait lasers. And while you're waiting to bait lasers, make sure to keep micro-adjusting away from the puddles behind you so you don't clip the puddle players or get clipped by the dash. You won't need sprint but feel free to pop if it's comfy for you, since it'll at least help if you get the cursed pattern.

Despite the fact that the first 2/3 of it are >lol this was a waste of time >lol this was a failed endeavor

It's hilariously true. Such an insulting statement, but undeniable. The payoff is enormous by the time you wrap up Shadowbringers. Keep at it. it only gets better.
Shut up. Video game discussion is strictly prohibited on Ganker. Go make a new thread with some big-tittied anime girl asking what went wrong with the latest vtuber drama. That's acceptable Ganker content.
GW2's open world has a great honeymoon period until you realize it's made for the droolingest of mouthbreathers. Especially the world bosses. Then you realize every new zone's events are just copy/pasted from old ones just given new names.

Yeah that's true, they were fun before nerfs. Especially the Wurms.
That's the biggest problem with GW2, the community. Every single time Anet tries to give them something challenging they scream and cry until the inevitable nerfs. Or they just don't do it like Raids.
Anet can make fantastic challenging content but they pay way too much attention to the community.

you're completely valid for feeling that way, the game is designed so you can play the game and consume as easy or difficult content as you like
I intentionally unsubbed after the first wing of Pandaemonium on account of conceding that my learning style being poison to progression and not wanting be be the guy who just gets carried. Beyond basic instructions I need multiple attempts to learn by doing which mean many wipes of me not pulling my weight till I learn
So I decided to become a story player who logs in every half a year to run through the content once and so I have all the patches worth of content ahead of me.
Feels Good Man
Not subbed even now. Done all I wanted to do, will probably buy a month when .5 comes out and get things done and ready for 7.0. Then, if 7.0’s shit, I’ll just abandon the game for at least a few years.

And let's be real, half the reason MP is still a thing is purely because of Raise. If you don't use Raise, you will NEVER run out of MP even without using the cross class skill.
You can't disprove it. The only job that makes meaningful use of MP is BLM.
Other jobs it's something that's just there and only fricks you over if you happen to die.
>just login and do your daily lmao
nta but that's exactly what relics were.
ARR to some degree were, but don't pretend people just logged in, did their rolos, then logged out with substancial relic progress.
so now that you've reached enlightenment and realized that raiding is a side game like triple triad, fishing or island sanctuary spreadsheet autism, what are you doing with your free time not chained to a raid 'team'?

there was a bar called the eclipse bar that cycled on a timer and depending on which side was filling you'd deal more damage with that element so in effect if it's closer to the ice side ice does more damage fire side fire does more damage.
then i guess you could have a 2 minute cooldown to freeze the bar on fire side for longer or something
it has a sun phase and an eclipse phase like theres a bahamut phase and a phoenix phase
>old smn >mentions phoenix
old smn was dot central you shadowbaby
and balance has nothing to do with it, you jsut wait a cooldown to circle between baha and phoenix, where balance you had to use skills to tip the gauge to either moon or sun
I think it was during WoD, not sure, I only played pld, drk and war during legion and got annoyed that drk skills got messed up for no reason whatsoever
BLM is my current favorite job just because of how stupid your dps gets and the more ways you can tweak your rotation per fight to optimize dps. Plus I'll never get tired of greeding an extra F4 before using AM to get out of a mechanic and zip back to my leylines to continue casting
>BLM is my current favorite job just because of how stupid your dps gets and the more ways you can tweak your rotation per fight to optimize dps.
That's why SB MNK was so fun to play. There was always something you could change to get more dps. Kinda sad what mnk and the melees have become now
sam changed the least since its introduction
sam was the easy melee to go having only 2 directionals and kenki management
somehow, the other jobs now are dumber than sam...
I like that you gloss over the fact that BLM is the most optimisation heavy job in that game. Most players who play it will ever only deal slightly more dmg than a RDM on any difficulty, as shown by the absolutely massive DPS variation between players
Any player that is doing actual content (raids) should already have the knowledge to optimize as needed
Your BLM in a leveling roulette does not matter
That doesn't disprove my point gaygit, every job in the game is designed to be as easy to learn as possible on every difficulty level with BLM pretty much being the only exception, also, there is a wild difference between BLM players on Savage to the point where your entire team sometimes have to play around "bad" ones to meet DPS and body checks. RDMs are carry machines on Normal content and almost every prog group will have atleast their first attempts done with a RDM just to limp through a fight for as long as possible before they know how to optimise their roles for the encounter.

I see that you barely touch any type of normal raid content outside of CT. The community is so brainrotted and coddled by the piss easy MSQ that 1/3rd of all non-CT raid runs turns to shit thanks to sandbagging/AFK'ing and/or honest to god morons that can only press 1 button at a time or that play the game as if it's running at 2 FPS and 2000 ping

I honestly still want the devs to remove that exploit simply because I've always hated CT series thanks to how fricking boring it is. I'd rather have the devs give more carry potential to more jobs so that individual players can compensate for morons or that they actually start temp banning/queue locking people that sandbag/afk in roulette

The devs need to actually fix the synced ilvl
make it lower instead of 130 for raids and tweak the numbers so those raids actually become raids.
The moment they become mildly challenging, the cheesers will stop, they do it because they can afk and still get carried to the end
If there is no time different between those, hw or sb raids then there is no point to cheese it

I don't even understand why they AFK to begin with, if they literally press 1 button while following another DPS player around they can cut the time it takes to complete the raid down by atleast 1/4th if enough of them do it

Don't even need to reach HW raids for moronic shit.
I have been swinging my fat MCH wiener in the party finder for the past half a decade. I gear it every patch solely to make people in the party finder play with me.
i haven't been subbed for a year i think. but ffxiv is still easily the best mmo out there. not exactly a high bar, but they set the bar high for me. shadowbringers and endwalker were legitimately 10/10.
what is gained from "denying it" as an mmo
i do not actually understand what the argument is or what it accomplishes if everyone accepts that it isn't an mmo
I've been playing for around two years (started 4-5 months before Endwalker's release but took me quite a while to get into the groove). While I admit I don't have the same enthusiasm I had while doing msq I still do enjoy levelling classes and I feel like I have still quite a lot to do. I play on a casual level but I guess that when I have everything setup I might look for a FC to do harder content.
I think the game is lovely, I like the island sanctuary as a small thing you check for five minutes every day. I love all the classes. Looking for new cute clothes is fun. Occasionally going to a bar and chat with some homosexuals you become friends with and end up running content with is kino. When tired, take a small break.
I see we're at the time of night where everyone is suddenly an ARR epic oldgay and the young whippersnappers that raid now couldn't handle the kinds of raids they did back in the day
it's another episode of
endbaby wowfugee thinks dancing is hard and have no clue why so many people complain about current skill and raid meta, it must be old boomer stuff amirite
updoots to the left tee hee wow thanks for the plebbit gold
Personally, I think later content is harder than in ARR simply because of how severely formulatic it is.
I haven't even cleared Golbez EX because of how much of a shitshow the towers can be.
Really a big part of why savage coil was so unsuccessful was that all you got from it over doing normal coil was a title, weird how priorities shifted over the years and now according to raiders the only content that matters is the one that gives you a title
>take off everything but helmet >queue alliance raid >go afk the entire thing >queue normal raids >go afk the entire thing >queue leveling >press 1 the entire thing
I love cheese
You have to do CT raids for story at some point don't you? They should just rework those into solo duty/msq roulette shit and shove them somewhere in post ARR or something. Add all the gear to a vendor for poetics and the orch rolls/pets as quest rewards for sprouts to get excited about
Yeah, the longer I've played the game, the more I have noticed how the MSQ difficulty curve has been damaging the communities overall skill floor. If they don't want to actually make people PLAY the game while they are running the MSQ then they should decouple it completely from the rest of the game. Thankfully, that is exactly what they have been doing with the trust system, ironically making the MMO less M and O is probably going to end up improving the game for everyone if the devs actually start treating the open world and player agency better
I have housing, so I'm pretty much stuck subbing. But I'm also still playing it a lot, been working on that 2k mentor roulette lately. I like running synched content, and you get some fun ones in that.
I've only just started, so there are plenty of things for me to do.
Do you need an FC?
Sure, but I'm on Light Alpha.
t. yurogay
>same server as me
Rare. I'm not subbed thoughever.
I unsub after doing the story.
yeah for a bit
then i'll just play something else when I get bored
this lala is super effective against my dick
just, god damn
I still have so many blue fish to catch and eureka relics to craft
>relic weapon step is just have tomes again
I've not been since the first tier of savage stuff. Not looking forward to slogging through all the msq shit if 7.0 does look promising.
What's the difference between being forced to do the Alexander raid 20 times or just do any raid you please to gather tomes?
Honestly online guides ruined this type of quests. Back in the day the way this worked was you got some cryptic hint for what you were supposed to be doing, then you experimented until you got results.
it forces you into new content instead of queueing roulettes which you already do every week
>what's the difference between progressing a quest to earn a rare weapon and just passively gaining a reward for logging in?
You don't get tomes passively though, you have to actually do quests and clear group content
Hunt trains is the most efficient way to get tomes and you literally do nothing except spam your tank ranged attack then afk until the next mob.
>you have to actually do quests
>for tomes
Don't kid yourself dumbfrick. You log in, do your 20 minute roulette that you'd do either way, and then you get your free """"relic"""" weapon. Remember when these were supposed to be ultimate weapons that you had to actually earn over a lengthy, demanding quest?
And it was dogshit to farm. Oh yeah let's do another 60 Heavensward FATEs and 15 Crystal towers to get a weapon that is not even BiS and only became BiS at the very last patch. So engaging.
We had two expansions of relics having whole massive pieces of content built for them and if you're one of the Black folk who went and did 60 FATEs instead of doing the actual fricking content then do the world a favor and blow your brains out. And then blow your brains out again for being the type of moronic fricking cattle that thinks quality is determined by convenience.
>Frick time efficiency! I'll farm the RNG drops for 4x the time! Content!
have a nice day first.
>15 Crystal towers
You could do bozja, the actually fun content with varied rewards and fun gameplay. I didn't touch CT once.
>Fun gameplay
>Running the same 10 "critical engagements" aka fates with mobs having bloated HP with the occasional duel who is pure RNG and designed to kill you in one shot if it's your first time running it.
If that's what you homies consider "fun" all you need is a bullet to the head.
people love to degen grind shit like that.
Thats why games like PoE and D4 are as popular as they are.
Maybe do the intended content for the relic instead of the korean grind route
>biggest in the game

I pity anyone who try to clear Asura and will be forced to team with this faerie rejects
People don't really miss the "grindyness" of the old relics, they miss the fact that the relics used to actually be a long term goal instead of another "just login and do your daily lmao" type of content.
They (and I) miss the exploration content the most though, Eureka and Bozja is some of the best content this game has ever seen with a surprising amount of replay value and varied fights simply thanks to the slightly deeper RPG mechanics and the better use of FATEs. If the core game had atleast 1 of those things in the open world then that would fix the issue, but the devs seems to be extremely afraid of giving players any amount of gameplay customisation or any type of challenge in anything that is even remotely connected to the MSQ. If anything IS has cemented this into my brain while Criterion and the new DD have shown me that they are also extremely afraid of PvE experimentation since both are literally just "what if we take shit that already exists and just make very minor changes to it?"
the literal only chill and easygoing people I meet on the game anymore are in eureka pyros/hydatos
>just login and do your daily lmao
nta but that's exactly what relics were.
ah ya all the way back in shadowbringers 5.5 when you first started playing right
ARR was advanced CBT
HW was tome/seal dump
SB was Eureka farm
ShB was run Matoya's till you die irl
The only difference is that making it tome farm gives you control over what content you do to earn them.
I'm already doing random raids and shit every week for capped tomes. Doing that again but with uncapped tomes is boring. I want something different to do.
You don't understand.
It's much more engaging to unsync an ancient dungeon 70+ times than it is to progress however you want!

>it was gonna be a treadmill for autists
the same could be said of MMOs in general. Its not a huge time investment once you get it set up, and it has a lot of fun glams/mounts/minions. The worst part is the mammets are mouthy in a weird reddit way, which I do not appreciate.
Why was your last month's cowrie shipment a little light, anon.
Today, I leveled my alt's Botany, Mining, and Fishing to from 0 to 40, and their Leatherworking from 0 to 72. While watching/listening to Twitch musicians on my second monitor. I also grilled hamburgers and hot dogs on my porch during a thunderstorm and they were delicious.
Suck my lalafell dick, hater.

Literally a facebook “game”.
they wanted to give players a personal space outside the housing autism
Guild Wars 2 is better than this piece of shit and our next expansion is ultra hype
True that, the core weapon changes look fun as frick.
Yeah? It's not like I'm out of things to do. There's EXs to do, savages to try to do, jobs to level, crafting and gathering stuff to work on, pvp stuff to try out that isn't FL, etc.
Well at least we are getting two more trials (the fanfest one and 6.5) and two more criterions. Still got TEA to do as my last ultimate and level other jobs to 90.
Isnt the fanfest one from 7.0 and just an early teaser?
Nope, it's already in the game files. So my guess it'll come in the game shortly after the JP one.
Oh, was any lore shit about it mined?
Nope, just animations from it.
The way the story is going we wont get the hook for 7.0 til 6.55 part 2 story.
>finish up Zeromus
>tease 7.0 teaser
>Part 2 full hook story line to 7.0
Yeah. I think with Golby the only interesting thing is if Zero makes it out and comes with us. Other than that it seems like the Archon thing Thancred and Urianger spoke of might be the hook for 7.0?
The letter krile got too
So the breadcrumbs are there. I doubt well get much more while we have to save both the first and the 13th at the same time.
The real question is whos benched this expansion so krile can get the push they want.
Letter might be related to her job change too. Either way I dont think we are in for a huge calamity that happening gays read into Yoshidas marketing speeches.
Far as i could tell they want to close loose ends up of Ascian & Ancients story arc.
They could do a lot with a relaunh of the game in 7.0 with better leveling than ARR.
Basically you can choose to play ARR or you can choose to play 7.0 is what i would expect. I doubt we will hear much of that stuff from pre end walker again overall.
It's for Hildibrand, speedreaders. They literally already mentioned it at the end of the last available quest. With Lugae's guy saying that they were going to have to draw on divine power. The primal is Asura.
I skip hildibrand quests for the most part
i think it's just the model with some animations
what's with the recent GW2 shilling?
is it ironic?
did I miss something?
New expansion hype mostly.
who is hyped for a new GW2 expansion?
who even plays GW2?
its no even a real expansion, it has less content than a real one, I really hope square enix never do that
>I really hope square enix never do that

This piece of shit is not canon. Horrible fricking story, horrible content, powercreep bullshit across the board, beginning of the 'end' for the game along with Abyssea. Why did WotG have to suck bros...
>Be honest, will you stay subbed?
Yes
Imagine paying money to be subscribed to a second life dating sim with gays and trannies. The only people that are playing are the ones carrying a ball and chain to their house, or are trapped in a mindset of autistic collecting that will never end. It's evident that more and more stuff are going onto the store rather than in the game, while at the same time adding less content to the game and people just continue to eat this shit up. Unsubscribe while you can or just play when there are free campaigns, SE is a dogshit company that doesn't deserve any money.
lmao
>Imagine paying money to be subscribed to a second life dating sim with gays and trannies.
You do realize that second life has trannies gays furries and the rest of the degenerates you could find in LL without even having to mod your shit
As long as the wife is around, I stay subbed and YoshiP stays alive. Pic related is the wife.
Where do I get the JUST hair?
What? There's still 6.45, 6.5 and 6.55 left
that still 5-6 months of dead time... like usual
6.55 will be November, so more like 4 months
Usually expansions took 6 months.
4 months would be fricking great though.

Imagine your mmo being so shit that you don't have shit to do between expansions
My sub ended a few weeks ago and I stopped playing after the 6.4 PVP Frontline changes dropped. That new Shatter and the rebalances suck.
The rebalances are one thing but the score reduction low key killed the fricking mode, every single change buffed premades and snowballs. But this one is the worse because you know they will not revert it
I've been subbed since stormblood and I don't even play it more than once every other week or so
I don't get how this game survives if that is the case every fricking expansion
Whales more than make up for the dropped subs.
All of that just to be the #1 or #2 most common race/face in the game.
I will never understand people changing what their character looks like. I haven't even used the free fantasia you get for finishing ARR. It isn't the same character if you do that.
Nothing to do in the game aside from that. Also most people that do that look like absolute disgusting lardbuckets. Wish i had the ff14 collage of all the troons on twitter saying how they look like their character and all of em fat balding weirdos.
there is nothing to do in the game and the trannies keep grooming people. so they start having body dysmorphia and shit so they spend thousands on fantasias
This is insane. How the hell do you drop 8k on a monthly sub MMO?
I don't understand how people do this.
I fantasia'd exactly once from midlander to viera because the only thing I wanted since starting ARR was my own Fran to dress up in pretty and/or loose clothes and pretend she's my wife.
Literally me.
New players with a massive backlog of content, and the game was on a faster schedule before it got pushed onto the back burner indefinitely.
I'm about to start playing for the first time.
how the frick do you guys decide what race to play? I can't get started because of that...
>how the frick do you guys decide what race to play?
you get a chance to change for free when you beat ARR, so don't stress it. Just choose whatever feels good.... man.
there are no racials and stat differences are miniscule. just pick whoever you think looks coolest. it's not like ff11 where being a galka mage or a taru tank was actually a pretty big downside
Races may as well be purely visual in this game. Hyur or Miqote if you care about having as much gear as possible look good on you, otherwise whatever you think looks cool, cute, or whatever else. Elezen animations are not for everyone, and both Viera and Hrothgar have limited access to hairstyles and displayed headgear. You get one free fantasia to change your race if you can make it through A Realm Reborn without buying a story skip.
You motherfrickers preorder the Encyclopedia Eorzea III yet? I bought and read the first two, and i'm so happy we're finally getting the third. I think it might be my single favorite piece of video game merchandize of all time, a thick, high quality book, written entirely in-world, with pages that look slightly faded for style, containing mountains of cool information about the world. Wish more games would make stuff like this.
I was thinking about it but I'm not sure
Gonna wait for a scan.
When it's available locally I'll preorder it but that wont be for a while
>You motherfrickers preorder the Encyclopedia Eorzea III yet?
of course I did, I have the other two already and have to complete the set
I cancelled my sub shortly before 6.4 came out, along with most of my static. We're burnt out.
Same, it was just for story for me didn't care about the extreme or savage.
I'll come back in .5 for the story based stuff but that's about it.
Sex with buns.
now show in-game
now without mods/reshade
damn that was quick
>no ravabull wiener
why do all buns have this exact same hair and face
It's the best looking one.
You make it sound like there are a lot of options
Bun and tiger men complain about hair bitterly.
There actually is a lot of hair options for Viera now.
They've almost got everything everybody else does. There's only 11 hairstyles they're still locked out of. One of them is the Cloud Strife hair almost nobody owns anyway, one of them is Noctis, one is the male Eternal Bonding haircut, and four of them are cash shop only haircuts tied to Scion/Aymeric outfits.
Of hairstyles you can actually acquire in game, they only have four left to add.
Afro, Gyr Abanian Plait, Ramza, and OP's.
Limited race, there are no other options
Miqote and AuRas also use the same face.
only four faces per race for any non-hyur
less hairstyles than any non-hrothgar race
as for the patched in hairstyles, barely any look good on viera due to the amount of forehead
less headgear than hrothgar, who already lose out on most headgear
people are going to narrow in on a single design all the way down to glamour very quickly. face 1 is the one that looks acceptable without any adjustments in the character creator so that's what the majority went with.
I love the fluffy hair.

I haven't been subbed for a while. Once the MSQ is done for this xpac, I will resub for a month to get caught up.
Why do you guys keep using this specific shot of this character? First impression it looks like she is trying to be cute but actually watching the boring ass cutscene is something entirely different. Is the joke that it is so odd? For all the praise you people give for the story in this game, its pretty mediocre.

Are Criterion Dungeons even fun?
I've never done them but I feel like they were a bad trade for even a new Bozja clone.
I did it once and it was boring.
The actual criterion normal mode is fun mechanically but it's a very small piece of content with no real reason to do it more than once. Variant is whatever.
Dead content for a reason.
the first one has fun fights, but the rewards aren't that great and you can just buy them off the MB anyway, so there's no reason to do it more than once
Lol no, it’s also a proof current team has no idea wtf they’re doing.
>advertise is a mid core content for people that want a slightly harder challenge
>it’s actually a savage tier bossrush mode that requires fully pentamelded bis gear
Nice “mid core” content.
You realize there are 3 versions of criterion dungeons right?
only ASS requires savage skills
and that one gives all of the "cool" rewards
that you can buy from MB
Criterion normal is EX level difficulty and has literally no rewards. Criterion savage is a little higher than savage difficulty and has again literally no rewards.
frick off
Nice “mid core” content.
if you're not dat bad, its your problem anon
if your tankxiety wont let you talk to people and make a party, its your problem anon
sounds like you should just off yourself
All versions of the dungeon is currently dead though, all for a slightly different reason than just "muh rewards"
>Variant is dead thanks to being piss easy to solo and actually being harder to do with randoms thanks to the complete lack of communication skills in the community
>Criterion is dead thanks to being just slightly too hard for randoms to complete but being piss easy for anyone who has ever completed any current tier savage raid(s)
>ASS is dead because it requires Savage levels of coordination while being much more punishing AND having such shit rewards that no one ever wants too touch it again after clearing it once or twice
which one drops the chair?
marketboard
which one drops the chair mount?*
It's easier to get it off the marketboard, easier as in the gil you'd spend on it would take less time to obtain than actually spending time farming the dungeon for it to drop.
can you really just buy it?
yes, and its not that expensive, its much much time efficient than wiping 60 times to a boss because you have to herd 3 other pug morons who never set foot on savage
the rez handcap is too much if you are not doing it with an actual group of raiders
New deep dungeon also makes me think they have no clue what they're doing
>content that 90% of players only experience for leveling with a very small but dedicated community of people who enjoy soloing and high scoring them
>add a new one that is shit for leveling AND is unenjoyable to the smaller niche community because they completely changed the fundamentals of what made the older ones enjoyable
and now its literally dead content you have to sit in a 2 hour queue to even get a group for one set
It's baffling to me that they think the game needs more ways to level and not more meaningful content to actually go do. Why would they release a third deep dungeon that's basically the same thing and not try to expand on it or evolve it?
Because when they tried different stuff
people complained
diadem 1.0 diadem 2.0 diadem 3.0
eureka
bozja
the new deep dungeon is
>too difficult for uncoordinated noobs
>too boring and slow and sterile for DD solo community to want to clear it more than once
I could go into exactly why but its not really the point. They are going to cite Eureka being dead content even among the soloers as justification for them scrapping yet another piece of content that isn't raiding or erping
It also looks like shit. Can’t believe we’ll never get the Nym inspired DD.
I liked how they added a coils mechanic to the floor 40 boss. You know, that optional content that 90% of the playerbase never played and those that did either blasted trough as level 90 unsynced or the even smaller group of people that did it legit.
Me and my friend never set foot inside again after the boss killed us in 1.5 seconds.
>coils too hard, never tried again
giggity figgity gud, go jerk off to your avatars
>dude, do savage tier trials halfway trough your very first ARR playtrough
Yes, it’s very hard?
Literally git gud.
Ok homosexual.
>savage mechanics
>coils
anon you incompetent moron, coils are not that hard, and the savage coils 2 is closer to ultimate lvls of skill, and no sprout moron ever unsyncs them because they're too dumb to even learn how to unlock them.
fnow if you cant handle regular coil shit toned down to endbabies, then you're too dumb to handle an old ass arr mechanic and you really should stick to jerking off to your e gf futa wiener because you're trash
>and the savage coils 2 is closer to ultimate lvls of skill
They really aren't. Savage coils would be modern day savage
I doubt modern raiders could handle savage nael if it were current, hell, they would get raped by melusine
the current raider doesn't know how to coordinate, they just memorize the stupid dance and go with it
It's not that much harder than normal Nael and doesn't compare to ultimate. Meteors? Try doing cursed Sanctity first.
Heal check? Tank LB1 2nd stardust and sac the stack on the heavensfall + meteors + spread. I'd say it's harder now than in ARR because of how crippled healing and mitigation kits are at 50.
I bought base game + xpac on steam sale to play on steam deck, and the shit won't let me sign in with my existing pc account that has game + xpac also. Why the frick not?
They are separate.
You're a moron if you didn't read the fine print on the steam page.
I did but Google suggested otherwise, none of which methods worked.
they sperated them a while ago.
I used to use steam until that point.
man that's a bummer.

you cannot be RDM from the beginning
need to be level 50. Also since it's an SB job it's not available to free trial players
Yeah, you can change jobs at any time, just change your weapon
Gotcha, thanks!
You can change classes as soon as you get a weapon that class uses as well as join the respective guild
Endwalker and ShB post game was dogshit so I doubt I'll be subbing in the future
>make a game where every piece of content from the previous expansion becomes pointless
>make a game where almost every piece of content during the expansion becomes pointless about halfway through
>stop releasing content for that expansion halfway through
Someone please explain to me the modern MMO design philosphy? FFXI wasn't like this.
after the HW normal raids filtered 80% of the playerbase Yoshi went full frick it and made the game braindead easy. starting in stormblood raids were easier, job homogenization started, removal of TP and cross class skills, etc
difficulty aside, I think it would still lead to the same result. They added Ultimates, which are harder than most things in any game, but people still get bored out of their minds. I think it is because the grindy / social sort of events expire within one expansion, if not half an expansion. Same with rewards being a one-way power-up.
The Ultimates in EW are the hardest yet.
Nothing beats A1-8S and especially midas in difficulty. EW raids are not even harder than Alexander. In the end raiding is pointless in ff14 though. All of the gear is useless anyway. SB really killed the game in many ways by appealing to complete braindead monkeys and killing most classes because shitter tanks and healer didn't want to deal dmg.
>Nothing beats A1-8S and especially midas in difficulty
They would be cleared just as fast as modern savage if you released them now with no gear gating
A8S doesn't even compare to DSR. It's barely over E8S.
TP was a fricking garbage resource and actively punished any kind of stat spread that made use of skillspeed. This also meant that any and all haste buffs were actually punishing to the player, as opposed to beneficial. Giving more classes access to Goad was a bandaid fix.
It was twice as bad during dungeons because melee jobs, including tanks, burned through their TP twice as fast by simply using their AoE skill(s), and the simple act of using Sprint drained your TP entirely, meaning melee jobs got punished for that too while casters got away completely free.
TP was fricking trash and removing it was a wise decision.
>t. been subbed since 2.1
TP removal also came with all the cross class changes. No more mana shift or goading, no more bard MP/TP songs, the complete murder of job synergy
lets be honest, the only people who complained about TP removal were casual morons who couldnt manage it.
then they complained and all mana management also got removed
the only job who had any saying in TP was MNK and they could verywell just fix MNK instead of trivialize the skill
Out of all of those changes, the removal of TP was the only one that wasn't stupid. I am, to this day, convinced that there is bare minimum - and often zero - communication between the departments within XIV's dev team.
>removal of TP
This was an objectively good thing, you stupid contrarian b***h.
XI belongs to what at this point can only be defined as a different genre, as would most of the pre 2004 MMOs. What you see today uses the same genre title but isn't the same type of game and isn't trying to be the same type of game.

I have been continuously subbed since 3.1 and have no reason to drop it now
I make the money to pay a year's sub in one day so I literally don't even think about it
every time I catch up on XIV's main content and a select few distractions like relics, mounts, Blue Mage style dumb fun bullshit, I unsub and switch to XI, been doing it since like 3.1.
That said with Adoulin almost wrapped up and the fight with Cloud of Darkness ready to go I'm almost finished with that too, the charm of continuously finding new places to explore and new things to do in XI for literal years finally dried up. There's TVR, but everything else in XI nowadays is purely based around gear progression and I'm not into the game enough for that.

Thancred is coming too, we've known for like a year now that Thancred and Krile are getting the spotlight in next xpac
You had to be there
frick me that was a riot
Yep. There's content patches, new raids, new dungeons, seasonal events, and all sorts of other shit to do all the time. The expansion release is a drop in the bucket compared to the content added between expansions. Why wouldn't you?
I’m almost done with heavensward. It’s been so good. The slog of ARR was worth it. Best jrpg I’ve played in years. I’ve heard stormblood isn’t as good, but ahadowbringers makes up for it. That means there’s still like 90+ hours of story content to get through. I love it. I love ff xiv
stormblood has good sidecontent, make sure to do the 4 lords / tataru's grand endeavor.
I forgot that each expansion is roughly 30-40 hours plus the 20 hours of post patch content. God it makes my peenus Erebus hard just thinking about it
I agree with this guy. Stormblood's MSQ is a little awkward. Not bad, but you can clearly identify the spots in the MSQ you'd dread doing again on hindsight. The side-content is fantastic, though.
glad you're enjoying it, fren
god i miss grinding top, i'll never go back to when I cleared it for the first time. all the hours grinding from phase 1

Every now and then, you will just get an absolutely cursed pattern. For the most part, it's just a matter of paying attention to when the lasers go out and pre-positioning asap. Also doesn't help that it's week 5 and all the competent players are done.
Do you have any tips for the LC then, because I feel like I should save Sprint for it?
Always keep vision on the mid add to see when lasers go out. That way you're always cognizant of whose turn it is by the time it's your turn to bait lasers. And while you're waiting to bait lasers, make sure to keep micro-adjusting away from the puddles behind you so you don't clip the puddle players or get clipped by the dash. You won't need sprint but feel free to pop if it's comfy for you, since it'll at least help if you get the cursed pattern.
SB is hit or miss and the pacing is moron. Lyse is worst character and the 4 lords / tataru's stuff are great.
>heavensward
Despite the fact that the first 2/3 of it are
>lol this was a waste of time

>The slog of ARR was worth it.
>"It gets good after 100 hours!"
It's hilariously true. Such an insulting statement, but undeniable. The payoff is enormous by the time you wrap up Shadowbringers. Keep at it. it only gets better.
Stormblood is extremely bad. Just power through it and get to shadowbringers. SB and endwalker are both really good
I can't believe I have to share this board with you fricking homosexuals.

Shut up. Video game discussion is strictly prohibited on Ganker. Go make a new thread with some big-tittied anime girl asking what went wrong with the latest vtuber drama. That's acceptable Ganker content.
The more GW2 I play, the more I realize how many flaws XIV has
Especially in the open world department
GW2's open world has a great honeymoon period until you realize it's made for the droolingest of mouthbreathers. Especially the world bosses. Then you realize every new zone's events are just copy/pasted from old ones just given new names.

Yeah that's true, they were fun before nerfs. Especially the Wurms.
That's the biggest problem with GW2, the community. Every single time Anet tries to give them something challenging they scream and cry until the inevitable nerfs. Or they just don't do it like Raids.
Anet can make fantastic challenging content but they pay way too much attention to the community.

Now frick off and make a thread to talk about your lore shitting game. GW1 is the only guild wars game.
I couldn't even force myself to finish End of Dragons and regret buying it. My character is locked in the middle of Arborstone and has been since release day.
I was annoyed with what they did to Primordus but seeing what they did to Cantha finally pushed me to quit.
to me Palawa being fed to moronic dragon mcguffin did it.
at that moment it was clear that they would never learn how to improve the story or learn how to tell shit outside forcing their mary sues.
ive seen what they did with Cantha and the whole commiefornia writing
Bro, that shit makes Shadowlands and Dragonflight look like Shakespeare in comparison.

I haven't had active sub since December.
Nope. This was easily the worst expansion they have ever produced and 16 wasn't even worth the wait. I hope they never let yoshi direct outside of XIV ever again. We literally got screwed for content
If it weren't for my house and the wage my FC pays me for managing a bunch of its members' farms that we collectivized, I'd unsub any month that a major patch doesn't come out.
Already dipped out of my static because they couldn't remember their fricking mechanics in P7S and it's on me to raise them constantly
>and the wage my FC pays me for managing a bunch of its members' farms that we collectivized
like real money?
Why is the LC in P12S such a pain? Like the PF I find can't get there half the time and the other time some times the lasers just don't go out when they should. It feels like everything just goes out too fast to adjust.

Your homosexuality is a traumatic response to abuse received in your childhood. You need to use your will to stop being a degenerate. Your soul understands it's immoral.
if you can guess what my "abuse" was I'll agree with you
Paint your nails and post your hands and cute gay gaming setup on FC/Server/Novicenetwork Discord. Meet up with the guys who compliment you to get some friends and expand your social group. Play and hang out with the guys you like and think are hot. Considering it's MMOs and MMO players don't really filter themselves chances are they've already posted pictures of themselves or will if it gets brought up naturally so you can make sure they're good looking.

>Where to now?

Ideally you would stop now, savage is not fun, has not been fun since shb, at least with ulti you get a nice reward as motivation, but current savage tier got ugly ass gear and a shitass mount, besides its teeming with erpers who want that mount and will do nothing but sandbag the run
Yeah I can see that, I did some P9 today in a fresh prog group and got mad that people couldnt figure out how to do limit cut. Its fricking braindead easy.
why cant they just wait till echo
because they need it now, you seriously are not expecting troomers to have some sort of self control right?
if you check the OF you will see how many of those are malding that they are now "forced" to run savage to get the mount that they would gladly buy for 24.99$
they are FORCED to run savage now....
man when I go in cities and see people PFing current savage they are all some of the most moronic looking idiots, I feel bad for anyone doing that that wants an actual enjoyable experience
I've given up on savages and extremes. I just don't have the patience to learn hieroglyphics and doublespeak made by some YouTube™ autist just to play a fricking videogame anymore.
I just got tired of dealing with hyper autists.
you're completely valid for feeling that way, the game is designed so you can play the game and consume as easy or difficult content as you like
do the other ultimates
I intentionally unsubbed after the first wing of Pandaemonium on account of conceding that my learning style being poison to progression and not wanting be be the guy who just gets carried.
Beyond basic instructions I need multiple attempts to learn by doing which mean many wipes of me not pulling my weight till I learn
So I decided to become a story player who logs in every half a year to run through the content once and so I have all the patches worth of content ahead of me.

femlanders are born for hungry femroe tummies
Femlanders rather frick animals than femroes
>frick
No, anon, there will be no fricking. Just an excruciating death as they are kneaded, suffocated, and mulched into gutslop by my belly.
You can always trust femroes to have the worst tastes imaginable
well they do play femroe
And they make sure everyone knows it and how rare they are all the time.
"As one of the few Femroes..." is a popular sentence starter for them.
Yep, everytime I see a femroe they start telling me how rare they are and how much they love reading softcore lgbtq+ erotica to children in libraries.
>worst tastes imaginable
You have no idea. Its so much worse than that.
how come I cannot find any femroe that are willing to vore me and then posts like these pop up regularly...
So what will the story be about? No Venat or Emet? How is the story going to be good?
midlander girls are genetically engineered to feed hungry roegadyn women
Just started playing, haven't subbed yet.
>no Lyse bush kini
sigh, you are all gays
Who make these
I'm not telling
these are great and all but are there animations for fricking
nvm found it
there are almost no good animators of xiv porn and the ones you find on like modarchive are especially cursed and shitty
xiv coom basically starts and ends with gpose screenshots
If the erptroons didn't obssess so much with their avatars maybe they could start paying for good animations instead of having their wol getting rammed by 2 horses
femroes are middle aged men who are into pegging
you are describing au ra players doode
thsi was meant for
Anon, why are you even mentioning femroes?
Because some homosexual is talking about getting vored by femroes
Wait, you get TWO horses?

And let's be real, half the reason MP is still a thing is purely because of Raise. If you don't use Raise, you will NEVER run out of MP even without using the cross class skill.
This has to be the most moronic take I've seen in a while
You can't disprove it. The only job that makes meaningful use of MP is BLM.
Other jobs it's something that's just there and only fricks you over if you happen to die.
ARR to some degree were, but don't pretend people just logged in, did their rolos, then logged out with substancial relic progress.
alexandrite step was like that
no mp bar means no ice phase
Alex step also had ways to progress it outside of that.
People absolutely did grind fates to speed that step up.
No, that is entirely wrong.
raise should just be free and incur a cooldown if you're in combat
so now that you've reached enlightenment and realized that raiding is a side game like triple triad, fishing or island sanctuary spreadsheet autism, what are you doing with your free time not chained to a raid 'team'?
I'm playing modded minecraft
>what are you doing with your free time not chained to a raid 'team'?
I raid on alts and help people clear in PF
Eureka>Bozja
and it's not even close
Only because eureka has minimal story. the moronic story shit hold bozja back a lot.

anon stop, I can only get so erect
Yeah, out of all the shitty pedo lala fetish shit and the vore roegadyn, pure f4 and despair is the only arousing thing in this thread.
Sucks to be a Vertical progression troonypark MMO.
They should remove mana from BLM and replace it with a gauge that rocks back and forth like balance druid in wow
I've never played wow. How does balance druid work
its probably changed since i actually played wow
there was a bar called the eclipse bar that cycled on a timer and depending on which side was filling you'd deal more damage with that element so in effect if it's closer to the ice side ice does more damage fire side fire does more damage.
then i guess you could have a 2 minute cooldown to freeze the bar on fire side for longer or something
it plays like old summoner
it has a sun phase and an eclipse phase like theres a bahamut phase and a phoenix phase
>old smn
>mentions phoenix
old smn was dot central you shadowbaby
and balance has nothing to do with it, you jsut wait a cooldown to circle between baha and phoenix, where balance you had to use skills to tip the gauge to either moon or sun
I miss that version of balance, I think legion is when it died
I think it was during WoD, not sure, I only played pld, drk and war during legion and got annoyed that drk skills got messed up for no reason whatsoever
honestly im just making loose comparisons
i mostly mained scholar and i only really touched resto druid
since we're talking about BLM
isn't it funny how BLM not only deals possibly 70% more damage than RDM but ALSO has more mobility than a RDM?
b-b-but you can't let RDM do damage, it has verraise!
>Reclear or farm party
>RDM joins
>Everyone leaves
So RDM is just pointless, doesn't help that literally every mechanic now is followed by a body check so RDM can't save runs anymore
SMN is more braindead and can ress.
yea...b-but can they double rezz? Didn't think so...haha...
But can they triplerez-- hol up ran outta mana lol lmao
BLM is my current favorite job just because of how stupid your dps gets and the more ways you can tweak your rotation per fight to optimize dps. Plus I'll never get tired of greeding an extra F4 before using AM to get out of a mechanic and zip back to my leylines to continue casting
>BLM is my current favorite job just because of how stupid your dps gets and the more ways you can tweak your rotation per fight to optimize dps.
That's why SB MNK was so fun to play. There was always something you could change to get more dps. Kinda sad what mnk and the melees have become now
sam changed the least since its introduction
sam was the easy melee to go having only 2 directionals and kenki management
somehow, the other jobs now are dumber than sam...
I like that you gloss over the fact that BLM is the most optimisation heavy job in that game. Most players who play it will ever only deal slightly more dmg than a RDM on any difficulty, as shown by the absolutely massive DPS variation between players
Any player that is doing actual content (raids) should already have the knowledge to optimize as needed
Your BLM in a leveling roulette does not matter
That doesn't disprove my point gaygit, every job in the game is designed to be as easy to learn as possible on every difficulty level with BLM pretty much being the only exception, also, there is a wild difference between BLM players on Savage to the point where your entire team sometimes have to play around "bad" ones to meet DPS and body checks. RDMs are carry machines on Normal content and almost every prog group will have atleast their first attempts done with a RDM just to limp through a fight for as long as possible before they know how to optimise their roles for the encounter.
RDM and DNC are the worst jobs right now having both in a party is a blight
Do not care, still playing them because they're fun.
>My favorite things are:
>Water without any ice
>The latest season of the simpsons
>Stale bread
>And dirt
Fricking lmao, none of the jobs are bad to the point where you are greifing the party by playing as them. Only meta-coping morons think that.
DNC is also more of a help to the team than literally any other ranged DPS as long as one of your melees or your BLM isn't pants on head moronic
comically enough if you were a war during week one your dps was so low that most groups could not clear p8s p1 because dps was too low.
hence the devs apology and all that
Damn your right, I completely memory-holed that. I played DRK at the time so I dodged that drama completely.
Not everyone is a raid troon
The top p12s phase 1 speedkill has both you homosexual
NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I CAN'T PEDDLE MY OPINION AS FACT DELETE THIS DELETE THIS DELETE THIS
dnc and sam are a stupid huge dps increase
it more than makes up for the lack of personal dps of dnc.
saying dnc is weak because their personal dps is weak in raids is literally just proving you're a reddit secondary that cant think for yourself at this point
>muhhh meta
fricking moronic talk
>Buff job has low personal damage
No shit Sherlock. You bring a DNC to be the buff b***h for the raid.
>BLM on 2nd place
>With a DNC bawd that is 99% likely to be pumping that BLMs numbers
Frickin lmao, I hope all BLACKED-sissies sees this and seethes
Fricking moronic meta gays
>RDMs are carry machines on Normal content
who the frick needs a carry in normal content?
I see that you barely touch any type of normal raid content outside of CT. The community is so brainrotted and coddled by the piss easy MSQ that 1/3rd of all non-CT raid runs turns to shit thanks to sandbagging/AFK'ing and/or honest to god morons that can only press 1 button at a time or that play the game as if it's running at 2 FPS and 2000 ping
yeah people say they want the whole "get naked to only get syrcus/lab" thing removed, but imagine how fricking shit trying to do any alliance raid with those people would be
I honestly still want the devs to remove that exploit simply because I've always hated CT series thanks to how fricking boring it is. I'd rather have the devs give more carry potential to more jobs so that individual players can compensate for morons or that they actually start temp banning/queue locking people that sandbag/afk in roulette
The devs need to actually fix the synced ilvl
make it lower instead of 130 for raids and tweak the numbers so those raids actually become raids.
The moment they become mildly challenging, the cheesers will stop, they do it because they can afk and still get carried to the end
If there is no time different between those, hw or sb raids then there is no point to cheese it
I don't even understand why they AFK to begin with, if they literally press 1 button while following another DPS player around they can cut the time it takes to complete the raid down by atleast 1/4th if enough of them do it
>hurr the community is bad there its ok that iam bad too ok
you said you did it with your friends shitty kun
are you telling you play the game with trash players? why? so you two can jerk off together?
>you said
lmao, your reading comprehension is so shit that you are misremembering what I wrote 5-10 min ago, why don't you go back and read what I wrote again ESL-kun?
>WoD

Don't even need to reach HW raids for moronic shit.
Don't care, rdm is fun to play.
I accept that I am weird considering my other main job is DNC
I am ice mage. I only press ice spell.
I have been swinging my fat MCH wiener in the party finder for the past half a decade. I gear it every patch solely to make people in the party finder play with me.
MCH is the best ranged to have now, the other DPS can fill in the buffs and your mitigation is very much needed
I am very happy they gave me my wrench back.
just know that I appreciate MCHs and anyone who plays them. Keep doing you my man
No I wont remove shadowflare off my SCH hotbar
it's been years, anon-kun
you have to let go
i haven't been subbed for a year i think. but ffxiv is still easily the best mmo out there. not exactly a high bar, but they set the bar high for me. shadowbringers and endwalker were legitimately 10/10.
The trick is to not be an mmo lol
what is gained from "denying it" as an mmo
i do not actually understand what the argument is or what it accomplishes if everyone accepts that it isn't an mmo
When are we getting a new FF mmo following in footstep of XI instead of this baby shit?
Probably never, MMOs of that style are dead until the gaming industry as a whole drops out of mainstream culture.
I've been playing for around two years (started 4-5 months before Endwalker's release but took me quite a while to get into the groove). While I admit I don't have the same enthusiasm I had while doing msq I still do enjoy levelling classes and I feel like I have still quite a lot to do. I play on a casual level but I guess that when I have everything setup I might look for a FC to do harder content.
I think the game is lovely, I like the island sanctuary as a small thing you check for five minutes every day. I love all the classes. Looking for new cute clothes is fun. Occasionally going to a bar and chat with some homosexuals you become friends with and end up running content with is kino. When tired, take a small break.
Genuinely gonna just unsub for the next 6 months.
I see we're at the time of night where everyone is suddenly an ARR epic oldgay and the young whippersnappers that raid now couldn't handle the kinds of raids they did back in the day
it's another episode of
endbaby wowfugee thinks dancing is hard and have no clue why so many people complain about current skill and raid meta, it must be old boomer stuff amirite
updoots to the left tee hee wow thanks for the plebbit gold
something tells me you're the only guy on the whole board that uses "endbaby"
Personally, I think later content is harder than in ARR simply because of how severely formulatic it is.
I haven't even cleared Golbez EX because of how much of a shitshow the towers can be.
its the body checks
some newer dev assumed that constant body checks = hard
its so fricking annoying
a8s, that was a classy fight, people could die left and right outside a few spots, the difficulty was managing to reach the dps check with weakness
Really a big part of why savage coil was so unsuccessful was that all you got from it over doing normal coil was a title, weird how priorities shifted over the years and now according to raiders the only content that matters is the one that gives you a title
>take off everything but helmet
>queue alliance raid
>go afk the entire thing
>queue normal raids
>go afk the entire thing
>queue leveling
>press 1 the entire thing
I love cheese
I queue normal raids on my alt that doesn't have anything under 70 unlocked 🙂
my alt has alex 1+2 and nothing else but current raids unlocked so if i queue normal raid roulette it's always alex 1 or 2
Thank god I literally can't match with that garbage. A2N is the most dogshit encounter ever made.
You have to do CT raids for story at some point don't you? They should just rework those into solo duty/msq roulette shit and shove them somewhere in post ARR or something. Add all the gear to a vendor for poetics and the orch rolls/pets as quest rewards for sprouts to get excited about
Yeah, the longer I've played the game, the more I have noticed how the MSQ difficulty curve has been damaging the communities overall skill floor. If they don't want to actually make people PLAY the game while they are running the MSQ then they should decouple it completely from the rest of the game. Thankfully, that is exactly what they have been doing with the trust system, ironically making the MMO less M and O is probably going to end up improving the game for everyone if the devs actually start treating the open world and player agency better
I have housing, so I'm pretty much stuck subbing. But I'm also still playing it a lot, been working on that 2k mentor roulette lately. I like running synched content, and you get some fun ones in that.
i won
no
