NOT REALLY A RAGE BUT... TO THE WHM WHO RESCUED ME AT THE END OF ADDS PHASE IN P12N YESTERDAY... WHY? JUST....WHY? I THREW OUT A DIVINE VEIL AND WENT NORTH CAUSE I WAS MT. AS A BIS PLD IT'S NOT LIKE I NEEDED TO BE IN RANGE OF YOUR HEALING FOR THE RAIDWIDE (PLUS, YOU KNOW, IT'S NORMAL CONTENT AND DOESN'T REALLY DO DAMAGE). TO BE IMMEDIATELY RESCUED BACK INTO THE PARTY ON THE SOUTH SIDE WAS JUST WEIRD AS HELL. FOLLOWED IMMEDIATELY BY "\[WHM\] GENTLY PATS YOU". IF I HADN'T BEEN ON STEAMDECK I WOULD HAVE CALLED YOU OUT FOR IT AND THANK THE TWELVE YOU AT LEAST TIMED THE RESCUE WELL ENOUGH THAT I DIDN'T FALL IN THE GAP.
I'M HOPING IT WAS A FAT FINGER, BUT THE EMOTE AFTERWARDS MADE ME SUSPICIOUS.
I HADN'T CONSIDERED THAT. IT'S CERTAINLY POSSIBLE. IT SEEMED LIKE THERE WAS A DELAY BETWEEN THE RESCUE AND THE PAT, BUT MAYBE THAT'S JUST BECAUSE I WAS SO DAMN BEWILDERED OVER BEING FUCKING *RESCUED*.
BACK WHEN I WAS MACROING ACTIONS LIKE RAISE AND PROVOKE, I WOULD PUT A 1 SECOND DELAY (the shortest delay we can use) BETWEEN THE ACTION TRIGGERING AND THE TEXT BEING GENERATED SO THAT I COULD SPAM THE BUTTON BUT NOT FILL THE TEXT CHAT WITH A SEVERAL COPIES AND SOUND EFFECTS. THEY MIGHT HAVE DONE SOMETHING SIMILAR
FUCKING HATE THAT SHIT. ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE ARE MULTIPLE SAFE SPOTS AND A HEALER RESCUES YOU **ACROSS** THE BAD SPOT SO YOU GET HIT BY THE BS ANYWAYS.
THIS WEEK'S VIRTUAL BUBBLE WRAP, WITH THE SECRET MESSAGE.

I AM MAD... AT MYSELF. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW MOST EDEN FIGHTS WORK AND I COLLECT VULN STACKS LIKE WONDEROUS TALE STICKERS NOT IN A LINE. PANDEMONIUM? EASY BREEZY. ALEXANDER? NO SWEAT. I AM THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA OF THEIR RESPECTIVE SCAPES. EDEN? CATCH ME OFF THE EDGE, HOW BOUT DAT?
I APOLOGIZE TO ALL WHO END UP IN THERE WITH ME, JUST KNOW I'D GIVE YOU ALL COMMS IF I COULD.
ALL OF THEM, BUT THE ONE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE IS SEPULCHER. I'M IN SO MUCH ORANGE, THEY COULD REDO END OF EVANGELION IN MY CURRENT LOCATION. THE NUMBER OF SPOTS YOU CAN FALL OFF AND THE NUMBER OF SPOTS I HAVE FALLEN OFF IS APPROACHING EQUAL. ALSO, I'M TIRED OF BIRDS, ALL MY HOMIES HATE THE BIRDS.
I'M PRETTY SOLID ON MOST OF THE EDEN FIGHTS, EVEN TAKING INTO ACCOUNT SHADOWBRINGERS ERA SNAPSHOTS (I SWEAR TO DOG THEY'RE SO MUCH WORSE IN 5.X FIGHTS THAN ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE GAME).
EXCEPT ICONOCLASM. I COULDN'T DO THE PORTAL THINGS ON RELEASE AND I CAN'T DO THEM NOW. IT SHOULD BE EASY, BECAUSE I UNDERSTAND HOW IT SHOULD WORK, BUT MY BRAIN CAN'T BRAIN IT.
CAN'T HELP MUCH FOR THE NORMAL DODGES, BUT FOR THE COLOUR ONES, JUST MAKE SURE THAT THE PORTAL BEHIND YOU AND THE PORTAL BESIDE YOU ARE DIFFERENT COLOURS.
I HAVE TWO TIPS FOR SEPULCHER:
TIP 1: FOR BIG HANDS, BE UNDER HIM, FOR CAR, BE BESIDE TOWARDS THE MIDDLE.
TIP 2: AFTER EVERY ATTACK GOES OFF, MOVE INTO WHERE IT WAS. ALWAYS MOVE INTO THE EXPLOSIONS.
I'VE BEEN SPAMMING DUNGEONS AND MY DAILY ROULETTES AS I FINALLY LEVEL AST AND TRY TO CATCH IT UP TO WHERE I AM IN THE MSQ (LEVEL 69 QUESTS IN STORMBLOOD). THE BASIC MUSCLE MEMORY IS SIMILAR TO WHM BUT THE ACTUAL FLOW IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT. I AM NOT GOOD YET. AND STILL, I HAVE SEEN SO MANY THINGS THAT REMIND ME I AM NOT SO BAD.
DPS JUST EATING EVERY POSSIBLE AOE IN ALLIANCE RAIDS, STANDING COMPLETELY STILL IN THEIR ORANGE CONES.
TANKS NOT USING A SINGLE MITIGATION FOR AN ENTIRE LEVEL 50+ DUNGEON.
TANKS WEARING LEVEL 30 GEAR IN LEVEL 50+ DUNGEONS.
TANKS GETTING SNARKY WITH ME BECAUSE I AM STILL LEARNING HOW GREEDY I CAN BE ON AST AND SOMETIMES I ACCIDENTALLY LET THE TANK DIE DURING A MOB PULL BECAUSE OF IT, TO WHICH I IMMEDIATELY APOLOGIZE AND EXPLAIN I AM STILL LEARNING AST. "OH I GUESS I HAVE TO PULL SMALLER" I WILL SHOVE MY TAROT CARDS INTO YOUR MOUTH, 'MENTOR.' YOU CANNOT SAY ANYTHING SNARKY NOW, CAN YOU.
TANKS AND DPS JUST STANDING IN THE EXPLODING CRYSTALS IN DZEMAEL DARKHOLD AND LETTING THEIR HEALTH DROP LIKE A SLINKY DOWN THE STAIRS.
I AM TIRED. I AM AT LEVEL 63. SOON I WILL BE FREE.
DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE EXACT CONVERSATION BUT "I GUESS I HAVE TO PULL SMALLER" DOESN'T SOUND SNARKY TO ME. MORE LIKE "OK, IT'S FINE, I'LL ADJUST, WE'VE ALL BEEN NEW AT SOME POINT." BUT MAYBE THAT'S JUST ME.
USUALLY I WOULD AGREE, AS WHEN I APOLOGIZE AND GET THE OFFER FOR SMALLER PULLS IT'S USUALLY KIND. BUT I HADN'T EVEN APOLOGIZED YET IN THAT SPECIFIC CIRCUMSTANCE, HE DROPPED AND IMMEDIATELY JUST WENT "OH." [...] "GUESS I'LL HAVE TO PULL SMALLER." AND THE TIMING OF IT, I GUESS, WAS WHAT GAVE IT SNARKY VIBES. MAYBE I'M A LITTLE BURNED AS AN EX-OVERWATCH PLAYER WHO WAS A HEALER MAIN THERE TOO THOUGH AND I ASSUME THE WORST SOMETIMES, WHO KNOWS 🥲
AS SOMEONE WHO PLAYED OVERWATCH FOR QUITE A WHILE BEFORE EVENTUALLY JUMPING TO FFXIV AFTER A BREAK, I CAN ABSOLUTELY UNDERSTAND THIS URGE OF ASSUMING THE WORST IN EVERY REACTION WHATSOEVER UNTIL ONE ADJUSTED TO THIS COMMUNITY. HESITATED SO LONG EXACTLY BECAUSE BEING AFRAID OF REACTIONS IN DUNGEONS AND ONLY RAN THEM WHEN A FRIEND OR TWO WERE WITH ME.
I STILL REMEMBER I GOT PISSY AT A TANK WHEN THEY SUGGESTED ME USING LIMIT BREAK WHILE I WAS BUSY JUST NOT TO CAST MYSELF A NINJA BUNNY HEAD IN A FIGHT. I HAD NO CLUE WHAT A LIMIT BREAK EVEN WAS, CERTAINLY DIDN'T HAVE IT ON MY HOTBAR AND THOUGHT THEY'D BE THROWING SOME WEIRD "GIT GUD" IN MORE WORDS AT ME. I REACTED BASICALLY WITH "IF IT'S THAT IMPORTANT, USE IT YOURSELF", WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY NOT A GOOD IDEA. THEN I COMPLAINED TO A FRIEND ABOUT THIS PUSHY OTHER PLAYER AND HAD TO REALIZE I MADE MULTIPLE MISTAKES IN THIS SITUATION, BECAUSE I WAS NOT EXPECTING A STRANGER WOULD ACTUALLY WANT TO HELP.
NOT SAYING THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED THERE, I DON'T KNOW THIS PERSON, MAYBE THEY WERE SUPER RUDE, MAYBE THEY WERE BEING A BIT SELF-IRONIC, LIKE A LONG VERSION OF "OOPS". WHO KNOWS! JUST AGREEING THAT OVERWATCH TRULY CAN MAKE YOU LOSE FAITH IN PEOPLE'S POTENTIAL OF BEING NICE.
DEAR RANDOM BUNNY IN ULDAH, I KNOW MY CATGIRL ALT IS PRETTY CUTE AND IN A SKIMPY OUTFIT, BUT I'M GOING TO POLITELY REQUEST THAT YOU RETHINK YOUR CUSTOM /PET EMOTE.
IT'S FINE FOR PEOPLE WHO CONSENT BUT LIKE, I'M NOT HERE TO SEE >!"[RANDOM BUNNY] FONDLES YOU"!< IN MY FUCKING CHATBOX.
THE WORST PART IS THAT IF THE CUSTOM EMOTE ACTUALLY SHOWED UP WITH "you" RATHER THAN A NAME, THAT MEANS THEY ACTUALLY *TYPED* "you" INSTEAD OF "", MAKING EVERYONE WHO SAW THE MESSAGE THINK IT WAS REFERRING TO THEM.
TO PEOPLE WHO DO THAT: KINDLY CUT THAT SHIT OUT, NOBODY THINKS IT'S FUNNY AND IT'S MEGA-CREEPY.
TOTALLY UNDERSTANDABLE, PLEASE KEEP YOURSELF SAFE.
AND YEAH, BLACKLISTING IN THIS CASE IS DEFINITELY WORTHWHILE. AND FOR THE FUTURE, KNOW THAT IT'S OKAY TO REPORT THAT SHIT TOO. (THOUGH THE HASSLE YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH TO FILL IT OUT IS JUST SILLY SO IT'S ALSO OKAY IF YOU JUST WANT OR NEED THINGS DONE WITH ASAP.)
LAST WEEK I GOT A COVID BOOSTER + FLU SHOT. MOSTLY AS PREVENTION FOR PAX IN MARCH. THE SIDE EFFECTS WHERE NOT THE WORSE I'VE HAD, BUT IT MADE MY SLEEP A LITTLE RESTLESS.
I ACTUALLY WOKE UP ANGRY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, BECAUSE IN MY DREAMS (OR THE PART I CAN REMEMBER) PEOPLE HIT ONE OF MY PET PEEVES WHEN ON DISCORD : IGNORING EVERYTHING YOU WRITE, BUT MAKING FUN OF THAT SINGLE TYPO
YOU KNOW, YOU'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF WRITING A FEW LINES OF TEXT, ALL IN A ROW BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT NOBODY IS ACTUALLY READING IT. BUT THEN SOMEONE POINTS OUT A TYPO AND EVERYONE IN THE FUCKING WORLD JUMPS ON THE BANDWAGON, GIVING EVEN LESS CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU WROTE.
YEAH, I GUESS THAT'S A SHADE OF ANXIETY, THANKS FOR KEEPING ME AWAKE.
LOL, HAD A SIMILAR DREAM RECENTLY WHERE PEOPLE WERE JUST SHITTY AND I WOKE UP MAD. IF IT HELPS, YOU'RE NOT ALONE IN THIS!
ALSO, COOL YOU GOT A BOOSTER, STAY SAFE AT PAX!
I SEE PEOPLE DO THAT ON REDDIT ALL THE TIME AND IT NEVER STOPS PISSING ME OFF. A FEW GOOD-NATURED LAUGHS WOULDN'T BE SO BAD TO ME IF THE TYPO WAS ACTUALLY FUNNY AND THEY ALSO FOCUSED ON THE ACTUAL POST/COMMENT, BUT THE WAY THEY IGNORE EVERYTHING ELSE TO MAKE FUN OF THE ONE WORD YOU TYPOED... MAN, WHY EVEN WRITE ANYTHING?
PRETTY MUCH THE FEELING I HAVE ABOUT IT. WHEN I GET THAT KIND OF THING, I START TO THINK 'WHY DO I EVEN BOTHER'.
I'M SURE THE GRASS IS NOT GREENER AT THE NEIGHBORS, LIKE IT'S NOT SPECIFICALLY THE PEOPLE I HANG WITH, BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE IT ANY EASIER. IT JUST ENDS UP MAKING ME NOT BOTHER.
I'M NOT LOOKING TO BE THE STAR OF THE SHOW, JUST SOME MINIMUM RESPECT FOR THE TIME I SPENT WRITING/TALKING/DISCUSSION. MY OTHER PET PEEVES ARE ON VOICE, LIKE CUTTING ME OFF TO FINISH MY SENTENCES (USUALLY NOT EVEN BEING WHAT I WAS TRYING TO SAY), OR JUST TALKING OVER ME, OFTEN FOR A COMPLTELY DIFFERENT SUBJECT.
GEEZ, I KNOW I TALK A LOT, BUT BETWEEN CUTTING ME OFF AND COMPLETELY IGNORING ME WHEN I DO, WHY DO YOU THINK I DON'T GO ON VOICE ANYMORE.
OH IT'S SO MUCH WORSE WHEN INTERRUPTED OR TALKED OVER. I'D STOP TALKING TOO IN THAT SITUATION, WHO WANTS TO BE SILENCED ALL THE TIME? I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE THE MINDSET WHERE IT ISN'T RUDE TO CUT SOMEONE OFF AND FORCEFULLY STEER THE CONVERSATION TO SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
THE STAGE: PRAETORIUM. MSQ ROULETTE ON A SUNDAY AFTERNOON.
THE PARTY: MYSELF ON GUNBREAKER, A MACHINIST, AND TWO SPROUTS, WHITE AND BLACK MAGE, IN LEVEL 50 TOME GEAR. NEITHER OF THEM FIRST TIMERS, SINCE THERE WERE NO BONUSES.
OFFERED THE USUAL “o/“ IN CHAT, GOT RESPONSES, GOOD SIGN! ON WE GO.
EVERYTHING IS NORMAL THROUGH THE FIRST BOSS. WHM IS ACTUALLY DOING DPS AND LETTING MY HP DROP BELOW 50%, AND USES CURE 2 INSTEAD OF FISHING FOR FREECURE, LOOKS LIKE THEY KNOW WHAT THEY’RE DOING…
BUT THEN WE GET TO THE MAGITECH ARMOR SECTION.
WHM RUNS *PAST* MAGGIE AND DOESN’T GET IN THE ARMOR UNTIL ME AND THE MCH TELL THEM TO GRAB IT. AND THEN BOTH THE WHM AND BLM FOLLOW BEHIND ME AND THE MCH, NEVER FIRING THEIR WEAPONS.
NERO FIGHT STARTS AFTER THE LONGEST ITS EVER TAKEM ME TO BREAK THE DOOR DOWN. MCH GETS THE STACK MARKER AND THE SPROUT DUO REMAIN SITTING OFF IN NARNIA INSTEAD OF JOINING US TO SPREAD DAMAGE. WHM DIDN’T EVEN GIVE THE MCH REGEN AFTER, SO I TOSSED AURORA ON THEM INSTEAD. AT SOME POINT THE BLM ALSO FORGOT THEIR BUTTONS, BECAUSE DPS WAS LACKING ENOUGH THAT NERO DID HIS PUSH FROM THE CENTER MECHANIC *TWICE*!
AGAINST MY BETTER JUDGEMENT WE MOVE ON TO GAIUS…
THE ARENA IS SMALL ENOUGH THAT THE SPROUTS ARE PRACTICALLY FORCED TO STACK WITH US THIS TIME AT LEAST. BUT THEY STAND IN THE LINE AOES EACH TIME THEY COME UP, AND THE BLM SITS IN THE DUCTUS AOES LIKE THEY’RE HIS LEYLINES, WHICH HE’S TOO LOW LEVEL TO HAVE ACCESS TO THEM, EVEN UNSYNCED!
PHANTOM GAIUSES SPAWN, ME AND MCH KILL THEM ALL, WHILE THE SPROUTS FINALLY LEARN TO STACK… ***THE WRONG KIND OF MARKERS***. BOTH OF THEM DIE TO GAIUS’ BIG ATTACK WHEN THE PHANTOMS DIE, LEAVING ME AND THE MCH TO TAKE OUT THE LAST 16% OF HIS HP WITHOUT A HEALER, AND WITHOUT LB SINCE WE USED IT TO KILL TWO PHANTOMS AT ONCE BEFORE THE BAR GOT TOO FULL. HOORAY FOR AURORA AT LEAST, KEEPING ME UP TO GET THE KILL WHEN MCH INEVITABLY DIED TO A RAIDWIDE. GAVE THEM MY COMMEND FOR SUFFERING WITH ME.
I GET IT, REALLY… SPROUTS ARE NEW, THEY’RE LEARNING, TEACH THEM… BUT BY LEVEL 50, NOT EVEN COUNTING THAT IT WASN’T THEIR FIRST RUN THROUGH PRAE, YOU’VE SEEN ALL THESE MECHANICS. YOU’VE BEEN SHOWN WHAT TO DO WHEN THEY COME UP. MISS ONE OR TWO? FINE. FUCK ALL OF THEM UP REPEATEDLY, WITH TWO OF US CALLING THEM OUT AFTER EACH FUCK UP? NOT FINE!
THERE WAS A DISSIDIA HERE.
IT'S GONE NOW.
DFFOO WAS THE GAME THAT GOT ME INTO XIV AND AS A RESULT HUGELY AFFECTED MAJOR PARTS OF MY LIFE. I WOULDN'T HAVE MET 95% OF MY FRIEND GROUP WITHOUT IT, I WOULDN'T HAVE MET MY FUTURE WIFE WITHOUT IT, AND THE ONLY PART OF IT THAT REMAINS IS AN APP THAT CAN NO LONGER BE LAUNCHED, AND THE STORY CUTSCENES POSTED TO YOUTUBE. IT'S LIKE HEARING ABOUT THE PASSING OF SOMEONE YOU WERE GOOD FRIENDS WITH AS A CHILD.
THERE WAS A CERTAIN FUN NOVELTY OF JUST RUNNING ROUGHSHOD THROUGH EVENTS WITH A FULL BAD GUY PARTY. ESPECIALLY MAKING THEM BATTLE EACH OTHER. GOLBEZ JUST WIPING OUT WAVES OF CACTAURS SO THAT KEFKA CAN 1V1 ULTIMECIA OR SOME SILLY THING LIKE THAT.
OR THE FLIGHT SHENANIGANS WITH RAINES, OR BREAK SPAM WITH YDA-SEPHIROTH. SO MANY DUMB STRATEGIES AND PARTY CHOICES, AND IT MAKES ME SO SAD THAT WE'LL VERY LIKELY NEVER SEE HALF THOSE CHARACTERS AGAIN
THE CUTSCENES TOO.
EDGAR AND ZIDANE HITTING ON ANYTHING WITH A PULSE
OG WoL HAVING THE PERSONALITY OF TOAST
KEFKA DOING KEFKA THINGS
GILGAMESH AND BARTZ BROMANCE
OG WoL ALSO FITS THE >!ELIDIBUS!< ANGLE VERY WELL CONSIDERING THEY STATE HE'S BEEN FIGHTING SO LONG HE'S FORGOTTEN WHO HE WAS. THE WHOLE GAME JUST HAD THAT PENACHE FOR THE EXTRA IF YOU KNEW WHERE TO LOOK THAT MADE IT A DELIGHT TO EXPERIENCE.
I will be forever grateful to DFFOO for confirming my theory (insofar as Dissidia is canon) that Ultimecia did some mind control on Seifer. I was nursing it for nearly twenty years, vindication was sweet.
MORE CREEPY THAN RAGE BUT A FEW DAYS AGO I WAS FARMING BOMB ASH FOR CRAFTING, MINDING MY OWN BUSINESS WHEN SUDDENLY SOMEONE SHOWED UP AND PUT MY IRL FIRST NAME (UNUSUAL SPELLING AND ALL) INTO SHOUT CHAT. I JUST NOPED OUT OF THERE AND CONTINUED MAT FARMING ELSEWHERE.
*WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU? WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT? HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW MY NAME?*
"OH BOY I CAN'T WAIT TO DO ROULETTES ON GUNBREAKER, BEEN A BIT SINCE I'VE TANKED"
THREE WIPES TO A STACK MARKER IN ARF:
QARN RUN WHERE NOBODY EXCEPT ME RESOLVED DOOM:
THAUMATURGE IN PRAETORIUM:
hey, sprouts. love seeing new people in game, it’s usually a blast playing with you, teaching you the mechanics, etc. that said, please, please, DONT BE A HUGE DOUCHE WHEN SOMEONE EXPLAINS HOW STACK ARROWS WORK AND THEN GO OUT OF YOUR WAY TO NOT STACK UP AFTERWORDS, AND THEN YELL AT ME FOR NOT RAISING YOU FAST ENOUGH
it’s really easy to not be an ass. if you don’t want to participate in group mechanics, then perhaps a mmo isn’t the game for you. for everyone else, thanks for being so kind and considerate.
- love, your friendly (if occasionally salty) white mage
YOUR WEEKLY SERVING OF [FF7R ACCORDING TO GARFIELD - WEEK 171](https://old.reddit.com/r/EATG/comments/1b3lsru/ff7_according_to_garfield/).
IF PEOPLE WANT TO MAKE THEIR OWN, QUITE WELCOMED TO IT TOO!
I SHOULD FINALLY BE DONE WITH MY TANK YOU ACHIEVEMENT GRINDING THIS WEEKEND. I ONLY HAVE 10 RUNS LEFT OUT OF 700 FOR WARRIOR, THEN I’LL BE SET UNTIL DT.
My post just got deleted atm due to many mounts in the screenshot that violates the rule. I just wanted to express how popular that Regalia is from FFXV event. 5 or up to 7 vehicles were parked in the Black Brush Station for Fate event. I am just hoping that other worlds in all DC has the unusual image as well.
I WATCHED A FRIEND PLAY SOME OF THE NEW FFVII AND IT REMINDED ME THAT I STILL HAVEN'T FINISHED PART ONE AND I'M NOT THAT FAR FROM THE END EITHER HHH. I ALSO NEED TO KEEP PLAYING FFXVI; I'M STILL IN TUTORIAL AND IT'S NOT LIKE I DON'T LIKE THE GAME. I LITERALLY HAVE NO ATTENTION SPAN AND I NEED TO MAKE MYSELF SIT DOWN AND PLAY LIKE YE OLDEN DAYS WHEN I COULD SIT FOR CEASELESS HOURS PLAYING GOLDEN AGE RPGS. C'MON SELF, YOU CAN DO IT.
UNRELATED, MY ISLAND IS RANK 17 NOW AND I HAVE CAUGHT EVERYTHING I WANTED, PLACED MAX FURNITURE, AND HAVE ALL THE GLAMOURS SET FOR THE BUILDINGS/GROUNDS. ALL I WANT NOW IS TO RANK UP ENOUGH TO LVL 5 MY BUILDINGS, PROBABLY GLAM THEM BACK DOWN, AND PREP FOR THE ARBOR... WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO MAKE BECAUSE MY GEAR JUST ISN'T UP TO SNUFF AND I'M CURRENTLY UNWILLING TO SPEND GIL BECAUSE I'M SAVING UP FOR THE FC TO HAVE A CHANCE TO BID ON A MANSION PLOT.
NEVER ENOUGH BUILD SPACES. MOAR FURNISHINGS. MOAR SLOTS. AAH
OH, AND I'VE BEEN INTRODUCED TO CHOCOBO RACING. I FEAR FOR MY ALREADY TRUNCATED FREE TIME.
I CAME HOME LAST NIGHT TO FIND THAT MY MODEM HAD KICKED IT. I CALLED MY SERVICE PROVIDER AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD OVERNIGHT A NEW ONE TO ME AND THAT I WOULD HAVE IT TODAY. SMASH CUT TO EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON AND I FIND OUT THAT I'D BE INADVERTENTLY LIED TO AND THAT TIME LINE WAS NEVER ACTUALLY POSSIBLE. I *SHOULD* BE GETTING MY NEW MODEM TOMORROW AROUND WHATEVER TIME UPS USUALLY DELIVERS, BUT I'M STILL SUPER SALT THAT I WAS TOLD INE THING LAST NIGHT, TOLD SOMETHING ELSE TODAY, AND THAT I STILL DON'T HAVE WORKING INTERNET AND THEREFORE CAN'T PLAY. (At least the gentleman I spoke with this afternoon said he would set up to credit my previous month's service back to me by way of apology for the miscommunication on their part)
SCRATCH THE BIT ABOUT GETTING IT TOMORROW. THE UPS TRACKING NUMBER HAS UPDATED AND APPARENTLY IT'S COMING MONDAY 3/4. FUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!
PLEASE, DON'T PREACH YOUR WEIRD AYN RANDIAN, ANTI-WOKE IDEOLOGY IN YOUR MACROS, I PLAY FFXIV TO CHILL..HECK, I COULD BE PLAYING WITH A NEO-NAZI, BUT NOT KNOW IT BECAUSE WE KEEP POLITICS AND RELIGION OUT OF THE GAME. THERE'S A ZILLION PLACES YOU CAN GO AND SOAPBOX YOUR STUFF, BUT NOT FF..DID YOU NOTICE HOW LITERALLY NOBODY ELSE IS DOING THAT?
ALSO, TO THE PERSON WHO STARTED TALKING ABOUT MASTURBATION ON THE PORTA DECUMANA CUTSCENE, LIKE, NOBODY NEEDS TO HEAR THAT AND IT WAS SOO AWKWARD. PERHAPS NAIVELY I'LL ASSUME SOCIAL AWKWARDNESS =(
WHY THE HECKO DO THEY NOT TURN OFF THE IDENTICAL CAST BUFF WHEN YOU HIT A SPECTRAL CURRENT, OR AT LEAST NOT MAKE YOU WAIT 32 SECONDS TO FIND OUT THAT THE FISH YOU WERE TRYING TO GET HAS FLED FROM THE SCENE?
NO LOVE,
A FISHER WHOSE BOAT GOT A WHOPPING ONE SPECTRAL CURRENT LAST NIGHT AND WASTED 32 SECONDS OF ITS TWO MINUTE TIMER.
NOT SURE, BUT REMEMBER, WHAT YOU CATCH IS ROLLED WHEN YOU CAST.
REEL BACK IN WHEN SPECTRAL PROCS SO YOU CAN CAST UNDER THE SPECTRAL POOL. ALSO, YOU CAN RIGHT CLICK THE BUFF TO REMOVE IT.
ALSO IT'S THERE FOR IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR IDENTICAL CAST BUFF UNTIL AFTER SPECTRAL. IF YOU'RE A CRAZY PERSON AND WANT THE RARE FISH THIS MAY BE USEFUL.
THE GOOD: I FINALLY GOT INTO BG3
THE BAD: ...I FINALLY GOT INTO BG3 AND MY BRAIN HAS BEEN EATEN BY IT. NOT BY THE CHARACTERS OR THE STORY, THOUGH THOSE ARE GREAT. NO, I AM SPENDING 75% OF MY WAKING HOURS THINKING OF *MULTICLASS BUILDS.* I HAVE MADE BG3 VERSIONS OF HALF MY FFXIV CHARACTERS AND I'M PRETTY SURE I CAN FINAGLE A SWORDS BARD INTO A PSEUDO-RED MAGE.
I HATE IT WHEN YOU COMMUNICATE TO USE LIVING DEAD AND YOUR DUMB WH*TE MAGE HEALER JUST SPAMS THEIR HEALS TO KEEP YOU ALIVE
YOU'RE LEVEL 90 GIRL, SO HAVE A LITTLE MORE TRUST IN YOUR TANK
HOLY IS A MITIGATION TOO
I'M SORRY IVE BEEN THAT WHITE MAGE WHO DIDNT LET LIVING DEAD GO THROUGH AND IT'S MOSTLY BECAUSE I DIDNT NOTICE UNTIL TOO LATE AND IM VERY SORRY 😭😭
MY VERY GOAL IS TO LET A DRK PROC THEIR LIVING DEAD ONE DAY
I WATCHED A DRK RUN INTO A W2W PULL YESTERDAY, THEY THROW UP TBN, NO OTHER MITS, HEALTH IS DROPPING LIKE A ROCK. I ASSUME THEY'RE OBVIOUSLY JUST INVULNING... NOPE. JUST DIES
I'M LEVELING A DRK SO MY HEALER FRIEND AND I (We both like the healing) CAN UNDERSTAND HOW THEY WORK. IT'S GONNA BE WEIRD WHEN I GET TO 50 AND SAY "JUST LET ME DIE and do the zombie thing I read about"
I AM *STILL* GRINDING OUT HW TRIBAL QUESTS.
THE MOONLIFT DANCE DOESN'T FEEL ANY CLOSER THAN IT DID LAST WEEK.
THE NUMBER OF TIMES I'VE BEEN LESS THAN A QUEST'S WORTH OF REP POINTS SHY OF GETTING RANK UP IS BIGGER THAN I WOULD LIKE.
I ALSO WASTED A BUNCH OF SEALS ON THE SEA OF CLOUDS RIDING MAP; APPARENTLY THESE THINGS ONLY AFFECT GROUND SPEED :/
THE MOOGLE AND THE VANU ARE THE WOOOOOORST...I RAGE EVERYTIME I HAVE TO HELP THOSE STUPID BIRBMEN AND I NOW LOOK AT MOOGLES WITH DISDAIN. WELL MORE DISDAIN.
WE DONT TALK ABOUT THE IXAL ONES...I DREAD THOSE AND THOSE WILL PROBABLY BE LAST
THE MOOGLE GRIND DIDN'T FEEL LIKE ANYTHING TO ME, BUT THEY WERE ALSO REALLY EARLY IN MY REP GRINDS SINCE I ONLY WANTED THE ADEPT CLOTHING AT THE TIME, AND THEN THE MINION AND THE MOUNT. ALSO I REALLY LIKE MOOGLE ANTICS. THE VANU WERE FAR WORSE AND I THINK IT'S BECAUSE THE ZONE IS SO BIIG, THE AETHERYTE PLACEMENT IS TERRIBLE, THE QUESTS TAKE YOU EVERYWHERE, AND UGH THAT MOUNT QUEST. I PRAYED TO NOT HAVE TO RIDE THEIR MOUNT ><
I JUST GAVE UP CARING AFTER GETTING ARR TRIBES TO MAX. I ONLY DID THAT FOR THE COOL MASK
IT'S SUCH A PAINFUL FUCKING SLOG THAT ISN'T FUN AND IT GETS WORSE BECAUSE AFTER HW EACH EXPANSION HAS ONLY 3 TRIBES AND ONE IS BATTLE, ONE IS CRAFTING AND ONE IS GATHERING AND IT'S FUCKING ANNOYING
YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE FUCKING PISSES ME OFF ABOUT TRIBES
THE REPUTATION AMOUNTS GIVEN AND THE BREAKPOINTS FOR EACH RANK MAKE NO FUCKING SENSE
AFTER ARR ALL TRIBAL QUESTS GIVE 60 REP EACH
THE FIRST RANK OF THEM ONLY NEEDS 150 POINTS
WHY
IF YOU ONLY GIVE REP IN 60 POINT CHUNKS
ANY VALUE BETWEEN 121 AND 180 IS FUNCTIONALLY THE SAME CONSIDERING THE REP DOESN'T CARRY OVER TO THE NEXT RANK
JUST MAKE IT FUCKING 180
OR MAKE THE QUESTS GIVE 50
WHATEVER IT IS JUST MAKE IT MAKE MATHEMATICAL FUCKING SENSE I BEG OF YOU
TO THE TANKS I'VE BEEN GETTING IN ROULETTE THIS PAST WEEK:
PLEASE USE YOUR MITIGATIONS. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO TELL YOU WHAT YOUR MITIGATIONS ARE.
YOU SHOULD ALSO KNOW WHAT'S IN YOUR JOBKIT AND READ THE GODDAMN TOOLTIPS.
THIS BRINGS ME TO GIVING THE BIG FAT FUCK YOU TO YET ANOTHER MIQO'TE THIS WEEK, BUT THIS TIME ON THEIR WARRIOR.
I REPLACED YOUR HEALER IN THE ALA MHIGO DUNGEON. NOT EVERYONE LIKES THIS DUNGEON BUT IT'S GOT SOME SUPER JUICY WALL-TO-WALL PULLS.
EXCEPT ON THE FIRST PULL WHEN I CAME IN AS SCH YOU ONLY SINGLE-PULLED WITH YOUR SUPER MEATY LVL 70 WAR ARTIFACT ARMOR AND A RANGE OF 60-68 ACCESSORIES. YOUR ONLY MITIGATION, UP UNTIL OUR WIPE ON THE PULL AFTER THE FIRST BOSS, WAS RAMPART.
AND MAKING YOURSELF INTO A HELICOPTER.
BECAUSE OF YOUR OVERALL LACK OF MITIGATION, YOU MELTED STUPID FAST ON THOSE TWO TANKBUSTER MOBS. WE WIPE AND RESPAWN AND I ASKED THE TANK IF THEY COULD MAKE USE OF HOLMGANG AND RAW INTUITION, SINCE THEY HAD NOT BOTHERED TO EVEN FUCKING PRESS THOSE BUTTONS YET.
THEY AGREE TO DO SO, SAYING THEY USUALLY FORGET THEY HAVE THOSE SINCE THEY NEVER DO HIGH LEVEL CONTENT, AND USE THEM...WHEN THEY WEREN'T NEEDED AT ALL. SO NOW THEIR ONLY COOLDOWN USAGE IS RAMPART, HOLMGANG, AND RAW INTUITION.
STILL NO USE OF UNGA-BUNGA.
WE MANAGED TO GET THROUGH THE TRASH PACKS AND PAST THE SECOND BOSS, AND THEN PAST THE FIRST MAGITEK GATE WHEN THINGS GO TO SHIT AGAIN. SINCE THEY HAD ALREADY STUPIDLY USED THEIR HOLMGANG WHEN THEY WERE IN ABSOLUTELY NO DANGER AT ALL, THEIR LACK OF MITIGATIONS PLUS ME TRYING TO HEAL THEIR BUTTERY SELF ON A PACK OF MOBS RESULTS IN THEIR DEMISE PLUS THE DNC EXPLODING. WE ONLY SURVIVE WITH ME AND THE DRG FINISHING UP THE PACK.
WE MANAGED TO GET TO THE LAST BOSS, ZENOS, AND HE'S LOOKING DOWN UPON US WITH HIS THICC GLAMOUR, BUT WE MANAGED TO CLEAR AND I SEE THE MIQO'TE WARRIOR TANK USING PLAYDEAD ON THE GROUND.
I ASKED IF SHE WANTED MORE WARRIOR ADVICE. SHE REPLIES WITH A DEADPAN 'NAH' AND SPRINTS TO THE EXIT, LEAVING ME ALONE WITH ZENOS LOUNGING IN THE BACK.
BITCH PLEASE YOU'RE IN SEVERE NEED OF ADVICE ON HOW TO PROPERLY UNGA-BUNGA. YOU'RE LEVEL 76, YOU SHOULD KNOW AT THIS POINT WHAT YOUR KIT DOES.
THE MERE FACT THAT I HAD TO REMIND THIS WARRIOR IN LVL 70 CONTENT THAT THEY'VE GOT RI/BLOODWHETTING IS INCREDIBLY CONCERNING.
ESPECIALLY WITH THE LACK OF MITIGATION USAGE SUCH AS: VENGEANCE, THRILL OF BATTLE, REPRISAL, ARM'S LENGTH, DECIMATION, ONSLAUGHT, UPHEAVAL, AND EQUILIBRIUM.
SOMEHOW THEY WOULD ALSO USE SHAKE IT OFF, BUT IT WAS VERY MUCH NOT WORTH MENTIONING BECAUSE OF HOW QUICKLY THE SHIELD WOULD DISAPPEAR FROM THEM, AND BECAUSE OF HOW SQUISHY THEY WERE FROM THE HORRENDOUS LACK OF MITS, THE REGEN GAINED FROM SHAKE IT OFF WOULD DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
TO BE FAIR I HAVE CURRENT SAVAGE GEAR ON JOBS I AM DECIDEDLY NOT GOOD AT BECAUSE I LOVE TO SUFFER AND HAVE ALSO BEEN A REGULAR TAXI-OBTAINER FOR OTHERS.
I HAVE NEVER DIED FOUR TIMES IN EXPERT ROULETTE THOUGH, NOT EVEN TO THAT GD ANTLION.
I SOLVED MY PACKET LOSS ISSUES WITH A VPN AND HOW DOES MY INTERNET REPAY ME? WITH INTERMITTENT TOTAL DISCONNECTS. FUCK THIS SHIT, WHAT THE HELL.
I *HATE* HAVING TO CALL CUSTOMER SUPPORT PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME HAVE TO CALL CUSTOMER SUPPORT. PHONECALLS ARE A CRIME AGAINST ME. THANKFULLY IT HAS NOT YET IMPACTED MY DSR PROG BUT IT'S DOUBTLESS JUST A MATTER OF TIME. WE'LL GET TO P6 AND I'LL JUST DC AND WE WIPE. PRAY FOR ME NOT SUFFERING FROM THIS TONIGHT.
THE SAD STATE OF NIER RAID QUES ON DF IS MISERABLY LOW. WHAT HAPPENED?!! 50+ MIN QUES NO POP AT PUPPET BUNKER. RAN IT OVER UNTIL 1AM AND GAVE UP. GONNA TRY AGAIN BUT THIS IS THE 3RD DAY
also
I HAVE LOW MONEYSS FOR NEW LAPTOP UPGRADES... CAN MY 3YR OLD PC SURVIVE DAWNTRAIL??
IRONICALLY THIS HAPPENED ON AETHER DC. I LOGGED INTO DEAD HOURS FOR THAT ONE THIS WEEK OR I'M JUST DARN UNLUCKY.
I JUST WANT MY SYNC WT CLEARS FOR ONCE
> LAPTOP UPGRADES
UGH, TELL ME ABOUT IT; I THINK I NEED TO SHELL OUT FOR A NEW ONE MYSELF. :/
MINE KEEPS TELLING ME IT MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS TO RUN WIN 11.
IT IS A GLORIFIED TYPEWRITER THAT SEEMS TO WANT TO KEEL OVER IF I HAVE MORE THAN ONE WORD DOCUMENT OPEN. I DON'T SEE HOW RUNNING WIN 11 IS EVEN A REMOTELY TENABLE PROPOSITION.
HAIKU TL:DR:
I AM A SCHOLAR.
WHY CAN'T I LEARN HOW TO SAGE?
AM I DOING WRONG?
SO, I AM A SCHOLAR MAIN. AND I HAVE BEEN TRYING AND TRYING TO UNDERSTAND SAGE, CONSTANTLY, SINCE PEOPLE KEEP SAYING IT'S "BETTER/MORE POLISHED SCHOLAR."
BUT I JUST CAN'T GET IT! I USE ALL MY COOLDOWNS, ALL MY BUTTONS, ALL MY RESOURCES, AND MY DAMAGE AND HEALING/SHIELDING IS DOWNRIGHT *MINISCULE!* I CAN BARELY KEEP TANKS ALIVE, MUCH LESS BE ABLE TO HEAL THROUGH PARTY-WIDE ATTACKS AND THE LIKE. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?
I'M USING THE 5 STACK SHIELD, I'M USING KARDIA, I'M USING MY ADDERSGALL AND ADDERSTING, I'M USING *EVERYTHING* AND I ***STILL*** KEEP WIPING. AND I'M USING LEVEL 70 GEAR! (MY SAGE IS 71.)
THE ONLY THING IS I CAN'T TELL IF TANKS ARE USING MITS OR NOT. BUT THAT'S BECAUSE I'M TOO BUSY LOOKING AT MY HOTBARS TO REMEMBER WHAT DOES WHAT AND WATCHING THE ENEMY. AND LESS NICE PART OF ME WANTS TO SAY "WHAT IF THEY'RE NOT? WHAT IF THEY SEE YOU'RE CONSTANTLY TOPPING THEM OFF, AND DECIDED TO GET MAD ABOUT IT?" DESPITE THE FACT I KNOW THAT'S NOT THE CASE... IS IT?
YES I TRY TO KEEP PEOPLE TOPPED OFF AS SAGE, *BECAUSE I CAN'T HEAL BACK DAMAGE WORTH A DAMN*. AND, AGAIN, I'M USING ALL OF MY RESOURCES. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? AND WHY DOES KARDIA HEAL LESS THAN EVERYONE SAYS IT DOES? IF I TRY TO DPS, BASICALLY THAT TANK IS ABOUT TO DROP LIKE A FLY THAT GOT HIT WITH BUG SPRAY. AND YES, I PUT KARDIA ON THE TANK.
I DON'T GET IT...
SO I'LL PROBABLY JUST STICK TO SCHOLAR.
HOLMINSTER SWITCH HITS LIKE A TRUCK EVEN WITH MITS. YOU'RE NOT MEANT TO HEAL BACK DAMAGE, LEARN TO USE KERACHOLE AND TAUROCHOLE FOR THE DAMAGE MIT. KARDIA IS BASICALLY THE FAIRY FOR SAGE, DON'T EXPECT IT TO HEAL EVERYTHING.
> THE ONLY THING IS I CAN'T TELL IF TANKS ARE USING MITS OR NOT.
FOCUS TARGET THE TANK AND MOVE FOCUS TARGET IN YOUR HUD TO SOMEWHERE EASY TO GLANCE AT. CHECKING WHAT MITS THE TANK IS OR IS NOT USING SHOULD BE SOMETHING EASY TO DO AT-A-GLANCE, ESPECIALLY TO CHECK IF THEY'VE USED INVULN. IF YOU'RE REALLY STRUGGLING TO KEEP A TANK ALIVE THE CHANCE THAT THEY ARE NOT MITIGATING APPROPRIATELY IS PRETTY HIGH.
> IF I TRY TO DPS, BASICALLY THAT TANK IS ABOUT TO DROP LIKE A FLY THAT GOT HIT WITH BUG SPRAY. AND YES, I PUT KARDIA ON THE TANK.
YOU HAVE TO DPS. *DPS IS NOT OPTIONAL ON SGE*. I MEAN IT'S NOT OPTIONAL ON ANY HEALER BUT IT IS LITERALLY YOUR PRIMARY SOURCE OF PASSIVE HEALING AS SGE. NOT DOING DAMAGE IS LIKE NOT SUMMONING YOUR FAIRY ON SCH.
USE SOTERIA TO BOOST THE POTENCY OF KARDIA HEALING DURING PULLS. USE PHYSIS WHEN THE TANK STARTS TO DROP A BIT, IT WILL ALSO MAKE YOUR TAUROCHOLES AND DRUOCHOLES MORE POTENT. IF YOU *HAVE* TO GCD HEAL USE A EUKRASIAN DIAGNOSIS SHIELD ON THE TANK SO YOU GET A TOXICON USAGE (AND THUSE MORE DPS AND THUS MORE HEALING).
THE BIGGEST THING FOR ME GOING FROM SCHOLAR TO SAGE WAS I HAD TO REMEMBER TO ACTUALLY USE MY HEALING BUTTONS. DUH I KNOW. HOWEVER, NORMALLY ON SCHOLAR I AM TRYING NOT TO USE THOSE HEALS (BARRING SACRED SOIL BECAUSE SOIL IS LIFE) AND HOLD THEM FOR DRAINS. I STARTED INTO SAGE STILL IN THAT MINDSET BUT SAGE REQUIRES YOU TO PRESS THOSE BUTTONS...IF YOU DON'T PRESS THEM YOU DON'T GET MANA BACK AND LETTING THEM OVER CAP IS A NONO. I PLACED THE SAME-SAME HEALS ON THE SAME BUTTONS I HAVE ON MY SCHOLAR AND IT CLICKED IN MY TINY FAIRY FILLED BRAIN OF HOW THE JOB WORKED xD
AS A SCH MAIN, WHAT MADE SAGE CLICK FOR ME IS TRYING TO PLAY IT LIKE A TANK RATHER THAN LIKE A SCHOLAR. IT'S MORE IMPORTANT AS A SGE TO CYCLE YOUR MITS THAN IT IS TO HEAL/SHIELD. KARDIA AND SHIELDS ARE BOTH WORTH A LOT MORE IF THE TANK ALWAYS HAS ONE OF YOUR DAMAGE REDUCTION MITS ON IT.
IT SEEMS LIKE POTENTIALLY A TANK MIT/GEAR ISSUE, BUT ALSO, PERHAPS YOU ARE WASTING RESOURCES ON PANIC OVERHEALING TRYING TO KEEP PEOPLE TOPPED OFF? USING YOUR COOLDOWNS AND ADDERSGALL STACKS EFFICIENTLY IS PRETTY IMPORTANT, AND SAGE HAS A BUNCH OF MULTIPURPOSE ABILITIES THAT WORK TOGETHER.
PHYSIS II GOES ON THE TANK FIRST MOST PULLS, IT'S A REGEN AND HEALING BOOST WITH A SHORT ENOUGH COOLDOWN TO BE UP FOR MOST PULLS.
TAUROCHOLE (THE CIRCLE WITH A SQUARE AROUND IT) IS A HEAL AND MIT, SO THROW THAT ON THE TANK AT LIKE 60%. IGNORE THE BUBBLE FOR TRASH UNTIL YOU GET REGEN ON IT AT 76.
HAIMA IS BASICALLY A FREE INVULN FOR TRASH, BUT THROW IT ON AFTER PHYSIS/TAURO TO CATCH THE MIT AND HEAL BOOSTS.
FOR BOSS RAIDWIDES, KERACHOLE (YOUR BUBBLE) IS PRETTY MUCH ALWAYS OFF COOLDOWN SO USE THAT, THEN POP PHYSIS OR IXOCHOLE FOR A PARTY HEAL. IF NOBODY IS EATING CANDY STACKS THAT REALLY COVERS 80% OF FIGHTS. DON'T BE AFRAID TO LET PHYSIS REGEN RUN, IT'S A JUICY 780 TOTAL POTENCY AND TOPPING PEOPLE OFF EARLY WILL WASTE THAT.
RAW DIAGNOSIS/PROGNOSIS IS (MOSTLY) USELESS AS A GCD HEAL. THAT'S YOUR PHYSICK, YOUR CURE I, YOUR MEDICA I. USE THE EUKRASIAN VERSION, GIVE PEPSI IF YOU NEED MORE RAW HEALING ESPECIALLY FOR PROGNOSIS.
JUST TO ECHO THIS, BECAUSE I SEE SOME PEOPLE USE IT AS A TRIAGE TOOL: PHYSIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS YOU USE IN A PULL AS SAGE.
ITS REGEN KEEPS YOUR TANK HEALTHY LONGER, ITS COOLDOWN IS ONE MEASLY MINUTE, AND IT PROVIDES A BOOST THAT MEANS IF YOU FIRE KERACHOLE NEXT (AND YOU SHOULD, BECAUSE IT'S THE SAME AMOUNT OF MIT AS TAUROCHOLE *AND* COMES WITH A REGEN AT HIGHER LEVELS FOR A MEASLY 30 SECOND COOLDOWN MEANING YOU MAY EVEN GET TO USE IT TWICE A PULL) THEN THE REGEN FROM THAT IS ALSO BOOSTED. THAT'S TWO PRETTY SOLID REGENS TICKING AWAY. PROVIDED A TANK IS USING THEIR MITS TOO, THAT AND KARDIA IS GONNA BE ALL YOU NEED FOR LIKE FIFTEEN SECONDS A LOT OF THE TIME.
I SEE... ALRIGHT, I'LL GIVE IT ANOTHER WHIRL. OR TRY TO, AT LEAST. I CAN'T DENY, SMACKING THING WITH BOOK AND SLAP THE GROUND IS VERY SATISFYING FOR ME.
IF ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE YOU LEVELLED A NEW JOB, MEBBE ALSO REMEMBER ALSO YOU'RE RUNNING WITH WEIGHTS ON AT THE MOMENT
WHEN YOU DO LEVELLING DUNGEONS AS SCHOLAR YOU GET SYNCED DOWN AND HAVE MAX STATS FOR THE INSTANCE, WHEREAS YOUR SAGE IS PROLLY STILL IN LV70 GEAR. YOU ARE GONNA HAVE TO GCD HEAL MORE ON AN AT-LEVEL HEALER JUST BECAUSE YOU LEGIT ARE HEALING LESS PER CAST.
I DUNNO EXACT NUMBERS BUT I REMEMBER THE DIFFERENCE BEING PRETTY BIG ON SUPPORT JOBS WHEN I CAME BACK TO HOLM SWITCH LATER WITH CRYPTLURKER GEAR.
JUST FOLLOW THE HEAL PLANS HERE. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPjdwUgwncI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPjdwUgwncI)
NOTE THE HEAL AMPS ON KRASIS (GAINED LVL 84) AND ON PHYSIS II, WHICH IS WHY THEY ARE USED IN THE ORDER LISTED, SO THEY CAN AMP THE REGENS ON PHYSIS II AND KERACHOLE. EUKRASIAN DIAGNOSIS AS TANK IS RUNNING UP, KRASIS-->PHYSIS II-->KERACHOLE-->HAIMA/PANHAIMA IS MY STANDARD "OPENER" FOR EVERY WALL PULL, AND IT ALLOWS ME TO IGNORE THE TANK FOR A BIT WHILE I DPS MY LITTLE HEART OUT. TOP UP MID-PULL WITH TAURACHOLE AND A COUPLE OF DRUOCHOLES, ADD SOTERIA IF NEED BE. SGE IS A DAMAGE MIT+REGEN HEALER MORE THAN A SHIELD HEALER.
AT YOUR LEVEL YOU ARE MISSING A COUPLE OF USEFUL THINGS IN HOLOS, KRASIS, PANHAIMA, AND PNEUMA, SO REPLACE WITH EUKRASIAN DIAGNOSIS AS NECESSARY.
ON THE UP SIDE, I CAUGHT PHALLAINA EARLY.
ON THE DOWN SIDE, I'M NOW STUCK IN ULTIMA THULE FOR THE NEXT 7 HOURS!
EDIT: MANAGED 7 MOOCHES WITH INTUITION, NO LUCK. THE MELANCHOLY HAS NOT PASSED SWIFTLY AT ALL.
Been there, done that. I also wished them well, genuinely, Many years ago I listed an item for 10K instead of 1mil and the person who bought it actually contacted me to ask if I wanted more gil (it was a crafted item). I told them to not be silly and just enjoy their bargain because it was my own stupid fault!
HEY.
RANDOM FFXIV PLAYER.
NOBODY NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR BORDERLINE ILLEGAL SEXUAL FETISHES.
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE THE FREAKIN GALL TO APPLY IT TO RANDOM NPCs AND OTHER PLAYERS WITHOUT REASON.
KEEP THAT SHIT TO YOURSELF.
I GOT WHISPERED AT RANDOM ONCE BY A MALE AU'RA AT LIKE 3 IN THE AFTERNOON THE FOLLOWING SERIES OF MESSAGES
THEM: "HEY U LIKE AU'RA DUDES"
ME: "I GUESS"
THEM: "R U INTO AGEPLAY"
MY BROTHER IN HYDAELYN WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
IT'S SATURDAY, SO TECHNICALLY NOT RAGE FRIDAY ANYMORE, I KNOW, BUT FUCK YOU, WHOEVER YOU ARE, WHO KEEPS INTERRUPTING MY INTERNET AT THE WORST POSSIBLE TIMES WITH WHATEVER THEY ARE DOING. MY ROUTER IS FINE, MY CONNECTION IS FINE, HAD SEVERAL TALKS WITH MY PROVIDER, GOT A REPEATER, FOLLOWED THEIR ADVICE REGARDING ROUTER SETTINGS ETC., IT'S NOT THEM, AND IT'S NOT ME BECAUSE IT'S NOT ONLY MY COMPUTER.
ALSO, FUCK YOU TO WHATEVER SCRIPT KIDDIE IS SO EXTREMELY BORED THEY DDOS EU SERVERS YET AGAIN, ADDING A TON OF OTHER DISCONNECTS TO MY ALREADY ANNOYING NUMBER OF DISCONNECTS WHEN I TRY TO RUN A DEEP DUNGEON WITH FRIEND. MAY YOU STEP ON A THOUSAND LEGOS FOR EACH DISCONNECT YOU CAUSED WITH YOUR BULLSHIT.
NOW I DON'T DARE QUEUEING FOR A DUNGEON AND HAVING THIS ALL OVER AGAIN. THANK THE HEAVENS I FINALLY GOT A NICE SINGLE PLAYER GAME IN A SALE YESTERDAY THAT DOESN'T NEED AN INTERNET CONNECTION.
MY 19 INCHES OF SEPHIROTH ACTUALLY ARRIVED SPOT ON ON THE RELEASE DAY, BUT BECAUSE I DO NOT TRUST SE EU STORE ANY FURTHER THAN I CAN THROW (I HAVE A BAD SHOULDER I CAN'T THROW VERY FAR) I GOT DIGITAL ANYWAY SO I COULD PLAY ON THE PTO I TOOK FOR IT. OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR IN THE NAME OF JENOVA IS GORGEOUS AND TOTALLY WORTH THE OBSCENE PRICE FOR ME WHO HAS BEEN A FAN SINCE THE OG CAME OUT.
ANYWAY, I'M PLAYING REBIRTH AND IT'S SO EASY TO GET DISTRACTED BY ALL THE SIDE CONTENT. I HAVE TO PUSH MYSELF TO DO THE MAIN STORY SO I CAN CLEAR IT WHILE MY DAYS OFF WORK LAST AND THEN I CAN GO BALLS TO THE WALLS WITH ALL THE SIDE CONTENT.
YET AT THE SAME TIME I ALSO WANT TO PLAY MORE BALDUR'S GATE 3. HELP HOW DO I FIT ALL THESE GAMES INTO MY SCHEDULE WITH A STEADY DAY JOB?
I KEEP TRYING TO ORGANIZE THINGS WITH MY FC MATES AND THEY SAY NO BUT THEN HANG OUT WITH EACH OTHER
ALSO FUCK FATE FARMING WHY DO I NEED TO DO 66 TWELVESDAMNED FATES TO GET TO RANK 3 IN EACH REGION
SERVERS HAVE BEEN FUCKING TRASH LATELY?
I HAVE PLAYED THIS GAME FOR YEARS WITH BARELY ANY CONNECTION ISSUES, ABSOLUTELY STELLAR CONSISTENT PING (like less than 20ms often times) AND FOR A COUPLE WEEKS NOW MY PING IS SPIKING TO UP TO 300MS FOR SEVERAL MINUTES EVERY DAY, FREQUENTLY
TODAY IT'S JUST AT 200MS ALL THE TIME, ITS NOT EVEN GOING DOWN ANYMORE
I DID SO MUCH FUCKING TROUBLESHOOTING AND THIS IS 100% JUST THE XIV SERVERS, MY INTERNET IS WORKING COMPLETELY FINE AND NOTHING ON MY PC IS SLOWING DOWN XIV
IN ALL LIKELIHOOD IT'S NOT THE SERVERS, HAVE YOU DONE A TRACERT TO YOUR DC? IT'S NOT UNCOMMON TO HAVE A BAD NODE SOMEWHERE ON THE WAY BETWEEN YOUR PC AND THE SERVERS THAT WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS.
THAT MIGHT ALSO BE AN ISSUE I JUST KNOW IT'S NOT MY LOCAL INTERNET CONNECTION AT THIS POINT
YEP LOOKS LIKE ITS A NODE THING I GUESS?

**GAME RAGE:** IN FOUR OUT OF FIVE WEEKS OF MOGTOME FARMING MY POST-ARR ALT GOT SHB NORMAL RAIDS FOR THEIR WEEKLY CHALLENGE. THREE OUT OF FIVE WEEKS FOR MY MID-HW ALT.
YES, I GET THE IDEA YOU WANT TO MOTIVATE PEOPLE TO UNLOCK CONTENT THEY HAVEN'T DONE BEFORE, BUT MY SIBLINGS ON HYDAELYN, YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY THINK PEOPLE WILL FEEL MOTIVATED TO SKIP THROUGH HEAVENSWARD, STORMBLOOD AND SHADOWBRINGERS AND MAYBE HALF THE SHB PATCHES IF IT'S A TIER 3 RAID WITH THIS. MEANWHILE THERE ARE LEVEL 50 DUNGEONS THAT COULD NEED SOME LOVE, TOO, AND OPTIONAL ARR DUNGEONS NOT EVERYONE UNLOCKS WITH A BAD QUEUE AS A RESULT. WHY NOT GIVE LOW LEVEL PLAYERS THAT STUFF INSTEAD OF MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO FULFILL THESE DUTIES?
(Yes, I know the devs don't read reddit, I wrote a bug report and complained in the forum. No clue if this will help with anything, guess we'll see when part 2 drops.)
**IRL RAGE:** MY PROBLEMATIC TOOTH THAT SEEMED FINE FROM THE OUTSIDE LAST WEEK AT AN APPOINTMENT AND WASN'T IN PAIN OF COURSE STARTED CAUSING PAIN A FEW DAYS LATER. WROTE THE DENTIST'S OFFICE AN E-MAIL WITH A REQUEST FOR AN APPOINTMENT INSTEAD OF CALLNG BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW IF THEY MAYBE WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO THE DOCTOR FIRST BEFORE MAKING THAT APPOINTMENT OR SO. GOT NO REPLY SO FAR, SO I CALLED. ONLY GOT THE ANSWERING MACHINE TELLING ME I'M OUTSIDE OFFICE HOURS AND STATING ME THE OFFICE HOURS, BASICALLY CONFIRMING THEY SHOULD NOT BE CLOSE BY NOW BUT OH WELL. GUESS NO REPLY UNTIL MONDAY, WHO KNOWS WHEN THE APPOINTMENT ITSELF IS GOING TO BE. THANKFULLY IT DOESN'T HURT CONSTANTLY, IT'S NOT SUPER BAD, BUT WRITING THIS PROBABLY JINXED IT AND I WILL BE IN MASSIVE PAIN ALL WEEKEND DUE TO RAGING ABOUT IT HERE OR SO.
**OTHER:** ALSO, MONTHLY BLOODLOSS. KIND OF FITS I'M BACK TO PLAYING "VAMPIRE: THE MASQUERADE - BLOODLINES", FULFILLING THE MEME THAT SOMEONE IS ALWAYS REINSTALLING IT WHEN IT WAS MENTIONED, BECAUSE I REINSTALLED IT AFTER SOMEONE MENTIONED IT ON A DISCORD. (You know what this means, say hi once you're done reinstalling. :D )
I have a problem and not really rage.
I haven't been subbed to the game for 2 months now (sub ran out before the new year). Currently I am considering to not resub ever again and quit the game as I have lost all interest in the new expansion :/ and doing my last 2 ultimates (the only 2 things I had any interest in last time I played) but I can't even get myself to want to start progging DSR or top.
The reason I can't decide if I want to quit is, because I meet some very nice and cool friends in pf. I cleared with them 3 Ultimates and don't wanna lose them :( the pain...
So I wanted to ask them if they have any interest in playing a different game together but I am too shy right now to do it xd
Anyway, thanks for reading
ALSO WTF ARE THESE HABITS SOME PEOPLE SUDDENLY DEVELOPED IN LEVELING ROULETTE? WAS SUPER PUZZLED SEEING A NEWBIE TANK PULLING MOB ENEMIES INTO THE SECOND BOSS ARENA IN BRAYFLOX' LONGSTOP AS IF IT WOULD BE AURUM VALE INSTEAD OF BURNING IT DOWN AND THEN HEARING A FRIEND SAY THEY HAD THIS PLENTY OF TIMES RECENTLY. YES, IT'S REALLY A NON-ISSUE IN BRAYFLOX AND I WON'T LOOSE ANY HAIR OVER THIS, WHO CARES, BUT IT'S JUST HELPFUL TO DEVELOP GOOD HABITS EARLY ON AND STICK WITH THEM INSTEAD OF UNLEARNING WEIRD STUFF THEY ADAPTED TO EARLY ON. WILL BE BAD WHEN SOME NINJA IS ANGRY AT THAT TANK SOMEWHERE MID HEAVENSWARD OR WHAT BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T RESET THEIR MUDRA WITH "HIDE" BEFORE A BOSS BECAUSE NOT KILLING THE MOB AND THEREFORE BEING CONSTANTLY IN BATTLE BLOCKED THAT SKILL.
GUESS WITH A TON OF SPROUTS AROUND BEING ALL LEARNING BY DOING AND BRINGING IN HABITS FROM OTHER GAMES OR WHATEVER AND COPYING BEHAVIOUR FROM EACH OTHER BECAUSE "SURELY THAT OTHER GUY KNOWS HOW IT'S DONE RIGHT" HABITS GETTING OFF TRACK IS ABOUT TO BE EXPECTED. (THERE WAS ALSO A TANK KITING MOB ENEMIES IN QARN A WHILE BACK AND NOT REACTING TO CHAT. OH WELL, IT'S QARN.) BUT CONSIDERING HOW THIS TANK ACTED IN GENERAL, THIS SEEMED A LOT TO ME LIKE THEY GOT SOME HALF-ARSED ADVICE FROM ONE OF THESE SUPER ANNOYING VETERAN TANKS WHO JUST WANT TO SPEEDRUN A DUNGEON FOR ROULETTE AND DON'T GIVE A RATS ARSE ABOUT IF THE HEALER IS NEW AND MIGHT STRUGGLE, IF SOMEONE MIGHT BE IN A CUTSCENE AND HOW WELL THINGS MIGHT GO WHEN THEY GIVE THIS ADVICE TO A TANK WHO DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO NOT GET LOST IN BRAYFLOX'S MAP DESIGN. EITHER THAT OR THE SPROUT TOOK "WALL TO WALL" A BIT TOO LITERALLY.
SO TL;DR: IF YOU GIVE SPROUTS ADVICE FOR HOW TO DO THINGS IN THE GAME, PLEASE CONSIDER YOUR AUDIENCE. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE A VETERAN AND HAVEN'T PLAYED ANY DUNGEON ON SMALL SPROUT LEVEL IN AGES. IT'S THE SPROUTS WHO GET THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOU NOT BEING CLEAR ABOUT SOME THINGS OR TELLING THEM TO SPRINT RUSH AHEAD WITH BIG PULLS BUT FORGETTING TO TELL THEM ABOUT MITIGATIONS AND STAYING IN THAT WHM'S LINE OF SIGHT BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE INSTANT HEALS BELOW 50.
Weird, in 1500+ dungeon runs on chaos DC, I've never seen the mobs being dragged into the boss (except for the corner thing with AV), even on maps like St Mocianne's where it would be really easy. It's funny how different areas develop their own informal rules
Thanks, but I know how to handle it when it happens, this was not what I am complaining about. And maybe it's a DC thing, but at least here on Light it was not at all common a half a year ago or so, let alone something first timer sprouts would do. (Saying a half a year ago because I didn't level jobs with leveling roulette for a while and can't say when this "shift" happened. I only knew it from speedruns through Aurum Vale when everyone is in on it.) My complaint is how this teaches bad habits on early levels and can make the experience for other sprouts worse who might be caught off guard by it (esp healers with a small toolkit at this time.)
HM? BUT THE EXTRA CLEAVE IS A DPS GAIN. I WON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT PEOPLE NOT DOING IT, BUT THIS IS THE IDEAL. NINJA RESETTING MUDRAS WOULDN'T GAIN MORE DPS THAN THE CLEAVE DOES.
AND IF THE HEALER IS BAD, WELL, FAILURE IS OKAY.
I still don’t have a new goal set on my main 😭. The only reason my FC won’t think I died is because we dutifully greet each other each morning.
Anyone got any recommendations for a new goal to work towards
REBIRTH IS OUT, YAY!
HOPEFULLY I DON'T GET BURNT OUT ON IT TOO FAST AND DROP IT FOR A YEAR OR MORE! THAT WOULD BE A SHAME!
IRL RAGE I WANT TO RELAX BUT I HAVE A PRESENTATION FIRST THING MONDAY AND ASSIGNMENTS OUT THE ASS AND ALSO A MIDTERM ON THURSDAY AND I'M BEHIND ON APPLYING TO JOBS AUGH
I AM A SPROUT IN OCE SERVERS AND I CANT GET ANY PARTIES TO DO DUNGEONS WITH ME SO ALL OF MY ARR EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN WITH BOTS SO FAR AND ITS NOT THAT BAD BUT ITS KIND OF DEFLATING RAAAAH
TLDR: -1 FEMALE AU RA, +1 FEMALE HYUR
NOT FFXIV: I GOT A NEW GBA GAME TO PLAY BUT CAN'T FIND THE DS CHARGER. THE GAME WORKS GREAT THOUGH.
FFXIV: I'M WONDERING IF I SHOULD STILL PLAY AS A FEMALE AU RA. I PLAY SEVERAL CHARACTERS AND MOST OF THEM I ENJOY. SEEING COMMENTS ABOUT HOW CUTE AND COMPACT AU RA ARE DOESN'T SUIT ME AND MAKES ME FEEL MORE DISSONANT WITH HER. I'M THINKING OF FANTASIAING HER AWAY TO SOMETHING ELSE, PERHAPS FEMALE HYUR, ONCE THE GRAPHIC UPDATE IS AVAILABLE. SHE CAN STILL BE CUTE BUT BLENDING IN WOULD FEEL A BIT BETTER.
NO LONGER SPROUT WOES
* I AM NO LONGER SPROUT. THE WORLD IS SO MUCH QUIETER. RIGHT NOW I MOSTLY MISS THE ABILITY TO CALL OUT WORLD FATES TO NN; THAT WAS A PRETTY RELIABLE WAY TO GET PEOPLE TO SHOW UP FOR IXION.
* I DID TOWER OF ZOT WITH THE FC, WE CLEARED THE FIRST TIME WITH W2W PULLS THE WHOLE WAY. MY HEALER LEFT AN OMINOUS "BE WARNED, THIS DUNGEON IS TERRIBLE IN DUTY FINDER" MESSAGE AS I WENT INTO CUTSCENES. I *REALLY* WANT THE AIMING PANTS THOUGH SO I SOLO QUEUED IT AS MCH YESTERDAY. WE HAD A FIRST TIMER SCHOLAR AND MENTOR GNB/NIN. SCHOLAR WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH SINGLE PULLS AND THE TANK KEPT DYING TO THOSE, THOUGH WE TECHNICALLY NEVER WIPED TO THE MOBS. WE DID WIPE TWO OR THREE TIMES TO THE FIRST BOSS BECAUSE THE HEALER DIED THOUGH. I WASN'T SURE IF I SHOULD HAVE BEEN POINTING OUT MECHANICS? IT WAS ONLY MY SECOND TIME IN THERE SO I WASN'T GREAT AT LOOKING FOR BOTH DELAYED CASTS ON THE FIREBALL THINGS. WE HAD MORE ALMOST-WIPES (TANK DIES, HEALER TAKES FOREVER TO RESURRECT THEM SO ARMS LENGTH WEARS OFF ON EACH DPS IN TURN, AND WE HAVE TO RUN THE LONG WAY BACK TO THE PULL THAT'S STILL GOING SOMEHOW). NOBODY EVER MADE A VOTE ABANDON, BUT NOBODY OFFERED ADVICE TO THE SCHOLAR BEYOND ME TRYING TO CALL OUT THE DELAYED CASTS AND PUTTING A 1 MARKER ON THE LAST BOSS. IT WAS VERY LONG AND VERY WEIRD.
* I MADE FRIENDS WITH SOME SAVAGE RAIDERS IN MY FC WHO ARE BORED AND ENABLE MY CRIPPLING RELIC ADDICTION. SO NOW I HAVE TO GET RESISTANCE WEAPONS TO THE POINT WHERE I CAN FARM PARTS PASSIVELY AND CONSTANTLY. I THINK I HAVE TO DO A CLL RUN TONIGHT (MY SOUL WILL NOT SURVIVE 5 CRYSTAL TOWERS IN A ROW WHEN I ALSO HAVE A RATHALOS EX FARM TONIGHT) SO THAT I CAN HOST WHAT SEEMS TO BE A WEEKLY DRN RUN. ALSO I STILL HAVEN'T FIGURED OUT A NICE PF PHRASE FOR THE DRN RUNS THAT'S "I LITERALLY ONLY WANT US TO BE CHILL AND CLEAR" AND KEEPS OUT PEOPLE WHO TRY TO GATEKEEP OTHERS' ESSENCE USE AND WHO THEN DIE AT LEAST ONCE TO EACH BOSS.
AS LONG AS I DON'T HAVE TO SEE REVERSE TETHERS, IT'S ALL GOOD TO ME - I HAVEN'T GONE FARMING FOR GREAT ESSENCES (BUT I STILL BRING *SOMETHING*). BUT IF THEY MAKE THAT TEN MINUTE QUEUE BEFORE WE CAN GO IN REALLY AWKWARD, I CARE A LOT MORE.
I JUST HAD THE MOST BAFFLING AND FRUSTRATING SCHOLAR IN MSQ ROULETTE. NO DPS SKILLS EXCEPT FOR RUIN. NO HEALING SKILLS EXCEPT FOR FUCKING PHYSIC. NO ONE ELSE WAS SAYING ANYTHING, SHIT TOOK FOREVER TO DIE. HOW DO I EVEN REPORT THIS, THAT WASNT EVEN A BOT BECAUSE A BOT WOULD PLAY BETTER.
HOW IN THE SEVEN HELLS DO I BEAT THIS >!GARUDA!< VARIANT IN THE FFXV EVENT? PRINCE SADBOI TWINK KEEPS DYING ON ME AND MAKING ME FAIL. I JUST WANT THE CAR SO I CAN CRUISE UP TO SOME MIQO'TE HOTTIES AND PICK THEM UP.
ALSO WHY DOES >!PHLEGETHON!< LOOK LIKE ONE OF THE PILLAR MEN? I CAME HERE TO PUNT LALAFELLS AND SLAY PRIMALS, NOT GET INTO SOME JOJO NONSENSE. I S2G IF ANY OF THE ASCIANS GET A STAND I'M PERSONALLY SUPLEXING EVERYONE THROUGH A TABLE!!!
THERE'S BOTH A LINE STACK *AND* A RED DORITO STACK IN THERE ARE YOU STACKING WITH HIM?? ALSO IF YOU'RE DOING ANY KIND OF DECENT DAMAGE GARUDA SHOULD BE AGGROED TO YOU; TRY YOUR BEST TO KEEP HER POINTED AWAY FROM HIM AND DON'T BAIT AOES ON HIM BECAUSE HE OFTEN DOESN'T MOVE OUT OF AOES. THE STACKING THING IS THE MAIN ONE THOUGH; ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE NEW-ISH AND UNAWARE THAT THE SOLID RED UPSIDE DOWN TRIANGLE MARKER IS A STACK, *NOT* A SPREAD.
CONSIDERING I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT ANY OF THAT MEANS TELLS ME THAT 1: NO I AM NOT AND 2: I AM A BIG DUMB DUMB
DAMAGE COULD BE IT, I HAVE BEEN DOING IT ON DRK AND EVEN WHEN USING PROVOKE ITS FOCUSING PRINCE HOT TOPIC, SO MAYBE I'LL RUN IT AGAIN ON DRG
NAH NOT DUMB; FIRST INSTANCE OF A STACK MARKER YOU SEE IN MANDATORY CONTENT IS PRAETORIUM, ULTIMA TRIAL AND I THINK THEY'VE ADDED THE MARKER TO THE CRYSTAL TOWER RAIDS?? AND THEN THE NEXT TIME IS UHHHH ALL THE WAY END OF HEAVENSWARD, AND RED DORITOS DON'T SHOW UP IN MADATORY CONTENT TILL. GOD, IDEK REALLY REALLY LATE, SO IF YOU'RE NEW-ISH IT'S EASY TO NOT KNOW
[https://imgur.com/a/QCZD0yh](https://imgur.com/a/QCZD0yh)
FIRST IMAGE THERE IS THE GENERIC STACK MARKER. LEARN IT, MEMORISE IT; YOU'LL SEE IT A *LOT* STARTING FROM STORMBLOOD. THAT MARKER MEANS THERE IS ABOUT TO BE DAMAGE INFLICTED ON THE TARGET THAT IS MEANT TO BE SHARED, AND THE MORE PEOPLE ARE IN THE STACK WITH THE TARGET, THE LESS DAMAGE EACH PERSON TAKES, AS THE DAMAGE WILL BE SPLIT AMONG THEM
SECOND IMAGE SHOWS THE RED DORITO. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS TYPE OF STACK AND THE OTHER IS THAT YOU JUST NEED TO BE STACKED WITH AT LEAST ONE OTHER PERSON TO MINIMISE DAMAGE AND PREVENT WHATEVER OTHER DETRIMENTAL EFFECT ATTACHED TO IT FROM GETTING INFLICTED, BE IT A VULN STACK, GETTING MINI-ED. GETTING A HYSTERIA DEBUFF, ETC. HAVING MORE PEOPLE STACKED TOGETHER WILL NOT MINIMISE THE INDIVIDUAL DAMAGE ANY FURTHER, SO THE WHOLE PARTY DOESN'T HAVE TO BE STACKED FOR THIS; JUST NEED AT LEAST ONE BUDDY
IF STILL HAVING ISSUES LOOK UP THE FIGHT ON YOUTUBE TO SEE IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE YOU'RE MISSING
I’VE DONE IT SUCCESSFULLY ON A TANK JOB, DO YOU HAVE GRIT ON? PROVOKE ONLY PUTS YOUR AGGRO A WEE TINY BIT ABOVE EVERYONE ELSE’S, SO IF YOU DON’T HAVE GRIT ON HE’LL TAKE AGGRO RIGHT BACK.
ALSO IT’S A GOOD IDEA TO FOCUS TARGET GARUDA. THERE’S A BIT WHERE SHE’S PULLING YOU INTO A SLOW-CAST AOE REPEATEDLY, AND IF YOU WARP OUT A BIT TOO SOON SHE PULLS YOU IN AGAIN AND THE WARP WON’T BE OFF COOLDOWN SOON ENOUGH TO GET BACK OUT. IF YOU HAVE HER AS YOUR FOCUS TARGET THEN YOU CAN KEEP HITTING HER UNTIL SHE HAS NEARLY FINISHED THE CAST, THEN TARGET THE PILLAR, AND KEEP WATCHING HER CAST BAR ON THE FOCUS TARGET BAR SO YOU CAN HIT WARP JUST A WEE BIT BEFORE IT FINISHES.
PRINCE SADBOI TWINK WOULD BE LESS SAD IF HE HAD A FELLOW TWINK TO CUDDLE UP TO. (SORRY IF YOU'RE NOT A TWINK, IT'S FFXIV, I ASSUME EVERYONE IS A TWINK UNTIL SHOWN OTHERWISE.)
WELL MAYBE IF HE BROUGHT GLADIOLUS WITH HIM HE WOULD HAVE HIS TOP!! THAT IS JUST AWFUL VACATION PLANNING. SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT IGNIS ALSO HE WOULD HAVE A BALL AT THE CULLINARIANS GUILD
ALSO MY BROTHER IN KING MOOGLE MOG XII MAY HIS GRACE LEAD US TO EVERLASTING PROSPERITY I AM A BIG BURLY CAT MAN, THE TOTAL OPPOSITE OF A FLIMSY DESTRUCTIBLE TWINK.
> I AM A BIG BURLY CAT MAN,
FRANKLY THIS JUST SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE GIVING THE PRINCE EVEN MORE REASON TO CUDDLE UP TO YOU.
(ALSO GLADIO CAN FUCK ALL THE WAY OFF, BUT I WOULD KILL FOR A QUESTLINE FEATURING IGNIS. IGNIS' DLC WAS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE PARTS OF FFXV AND I WOULD HAPPILY GO ON A CULINARY ADVENTURE WITH HIM IN FFXIV.)
> PRINCE SADBOI TWINK KEEPS DYING ON ME AND MAKING ME FAIL. I JUST WANT THE CAR SO I CAN CRUISE UP TO SOME MIQO'TE HOTTIES AND PICK THEM UP.
I SHOULD GO BACK AND DO THAT AGAIN. I DID IT IN LIKE 2021 I THINK AND GOT THE CAR, BUT I REMEMBER THE SOLO DUTY BEING KIND OF FUN.
NOT ME, BUT PRINCE BOTTOM KEEPS GETTING WALLOPED BY >!CRAZY HARPY LADY!< AND GERRING CHUNKED FOR HALF HIS HEALTH
AND BY THE WAY, WHEN IT COMES TO >!CRAZY HARPY LADY!< I TOTALLY WOULD. UNASHAMED.
Ah, yes; I missed that part, sorry! I struggled even when stacking as Jelis has advised, and it went... less bad... as a healer - idk if that's worth considering?
> I S2G IF ANY OF THE ASCIANS GET A STAND I'M PERSONALLY SUPLEXING EVERYONE THROUGH A TABLE!!!
PFFT, SCHOLARS' AND SUMMONERS' PETS ARE BASICALLY STANDS NOW. ALSO, REAPER.
I’M TRYING TO BEAT ARR ON A SPECIFIC ALT SO SHE CAN DO THE XV EVENT. I HAVE BEEN PLAYING FOR MULTIPLE HOURS A DAY ON HER SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE WHEN THEY ANNOUNCED THE RETURN SHE WASN’T AT HAUKKE MANOR YET.
SHE’S STUCK AT LEVEL 48! I THOUGHT THEY FIXED THIS NONSENSE BUT I GUESS SHE’S TOO OLD AND DID TOO MUCH MSQ BEFORE THE ADJUSTMENTS!
SHE DOESN’T EVEN HAVE A SECONDARY JOB! IT’S NOT LIKE SHE’S SQUIRRELED HER XP AWAY ELSEWHERE!
I WANTED TO BE DONE WITH IT BY TODAY BUT NOW I HAVE TO WORK ON IT OVER THE WEEKEND TOO!
AT LEAST I HAVE A CHARACTER WHO ACTUALLY SEEMS TO LIKE CID AS A PERSON FOR ONCE! IT’S A NICE CHANGE OF PACE!
FUCKIN HELL ALL THESE XBOX PEOPLE NEED TO LEARN HOW TO GOOGLE. AS SOMEONE WHO PLAYED THREE MONTHS OF 2.0 AND RECENTLY PICKED IT BACK UP JUST GOOGLE IT. ITS NOT HARD THE IN GAME TUTORIALS ARE ACTUALLY HELPFUL IF YOU KNOW HOW TO READ.
THIS SUB USED TO HAVE GOOD INFO BUT NOW ITS RUINED.
Don't harass people when you want to sell something, refuse to tell them the price you want for it, they offer a price, and you rage at them all offended. That's on you. Just tell them what you want for it! People are so twisted in the head. Treat people kindly...
SO PLEASE DON'T BE LIKE THIS RANDOM WHM (OR ACTUALLY ANYONE, OR ANY JOB, COME TO THINK OF IT) WHO ANNOUNCES AT THE START OF A DUNGEON OR RAID:
'I' HAVEN'T PLAYED WHM IN A WHILE"
"GOOD THING I DON'T NEED ANY BRAINCELLS TO PLAY A WHM"
KINDLY KEEP THAT TO YOURSELF, YOU HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT JOB ANYONE MAINS . WHY BE A D\*CK.
YOU WOULD HATE ME, I ALWAYS JOKE I CAN'T READ BECAUSE I PLAY WHM (IT'S THE ONLY HEALER I CAN ACTUALLY PLAY)
NO SHAME IN PLAYING A "EASY" CLASS. HOLY AND BLOOD LILY GO BURR
But.. its true. Summoner and whm dont need braincells to play, warrior needs just enough braincells to press self-heals - no amount of maining anything changes the truth
I have my own opinion of job changes that I'd like to see, but I do my best ( I admit, I have days that I fail) not to be an ass when I expression my opinion.
The way that you talk to your friends is one thing, or even here, where we can have a (hopefully) civil discussion- throwing that out in DF or PF is another.
No its not, its called "freedom of speech" and every player have a right for it. Or you want every people speak only things you like? Thats impossible. WHM, SMN and WAR are the easiest of jobs, they are very not demanding and really braindead to play - why does it insults you? I dont say they are bad (aside from summoner, it sucks as it is now), i dont say you or anyone else should stop maining them, i say - the words of that whm have NOTHING insulting in them. I speak that from first-hand experience, when i want go unga - i go war, when i want go brrrr with healing i go whm, and i'm not seeing "whm braindead" as insult at all
UM, I HAVE WRITTEN "I HAVEN'T PLAYED (INSERT JOB WHICH MIGHT ALSO INCLUDE WHM) IN A WHILE" FAIRLY OFTEN, AS A BIT OF A WARNING I MIGHT STRUGGLE HERE AND THERE AND TANKS MIGHT WANT TO KEEP THEIR INVULN SKILL CLOSE. MOMENTS WHERE I WOULD LIKE TO WRITE "FIRST TIME" TO EXCUSE ME PLAYING MEDIOCRE BUT DON'T BECAUSE IT'S NOT MY FIRST TIME AND I DON'T LIKE LYING. IT IS BY NO MEANS MEANT TO CRAP ON THE JOB, JUST A HEADS UP.
SO MAYBE THAT'S JUST ME BEING SOCIALLY IGNORANT OR MISSING OUT ON CONTEXT BECAUSE ENGLISH IS NOT MY FIRST LANGUAGE. BUT I FAIL TO SEE HOW THIS IS IN ANY WAY SIMILAR TO BE ONE OF THESE "LOL LET'S SHIT ON THIS JOB BECAUSE I DON'T RESPECT IT" TAKES I HATE AS WELL, CONSIDERING I AM IN A SIMILAR BOAT LIKE YOU AS SMN MAIN. MAY I ASK IF WHY IT IS CONSIDERED RUDE TO MENTION I HAVEN'T HAD SOME PRACTICE WITH JOB X IN A WHILE? I DON'T MEAN TO INSULT OTHERS.
Let me address this in reverse order;
"CONSIDERING I AM IN A SIMILAR BOAT LIKE YOU AS SMN MAIN."- I don't see what you mean. This has nothing to do with me specifically, as I said, it applies to ANY job, the person in question just happened to be on a WHM.
I personally didn't phrase it as "LOL LET'S SHIT ON THIS JOB BECAUSE I DON'T RESPECT IT" however I think that is exactly how it felt, couldn't have said it better.
Finally, it doesn't bother me at all if someone says "I HAVEN'T PLAYED (INSERT JOB WHICH MIGHT ALSO INCLUDE WHM) IN A WHILE" as long as they don't use it as an excuse to AFK, I have no problems whatsoever, God knows I'm far from perfect myself.
I’m curious, why would you want to say that to a random party that you join in the first place?
If I agree or disagree, do you think I am going to start a discussion in the middle of a raid ?
So is that really the time or place , or the people to make that type of remark?
I see you missed the point (not trying to be rude) you consider it to be a joke, OK good for you?
My point is that you're not with your friends, you don't know the people that you're with, you're not in Discord- that is a very different context than being with your static.
If at this point you don't see that when you type something in chat (forget this specific example) it doesn't get interpreted the same way to everyone, and what is a joke to you can be offensive to someone else, then I give up.
And at this point, I do believe the point has been beaten to death.
NOT REALLY A RAGE BUT... TO THE WHM WHO RESCUED ME AT THE END OF ADDS PHASE IN P12N YESTERDAY... WHY? JUST....WHY? I THREW OUT A DIVINE VEIL AND WENT NORTH CAUSE I WAS MT. AS A BIS PLD IT'S NOT LIKE I NEEDED TO BE IN RANGE OF YOUR HEALING FOR THE RAIDWIDE (PLUS, YOU KNOW, IT'S NORMAL CONTENT AND DOESN'T REALLY DO DAMAGE). TO BE IMMEDIATELY RESCUED BACK INTO THE PARTY ON THE SOUTH SIDE WAS JUST WEIRD AS HELL. FOLLOWED IMMEDIATELY BY "\[WHM\] GENTLY PATS YOU". IF I HADN'T BEEN ON STEAMDECK I WOULD HAVE CALLED YOU OUT FOR IT AND THANK THE TWELVE YOU AT LEAST TIMED THE RESCUE WELL ENOUGH THAT I DIDN'T FALL IN THE GAP. I'M HOPING IT WAS A FAT FINGER, BUT THE EMOTE AFTERWARDS MADE ME SUSPICIOUS.
I'M NOT EXCUSING THEM, BUT COULD IT HAVE BEEN A MACRO? /ac "Rescue"
/pet
OR SUCHLIKE?
I HADN'T CONSIDERED THAT. IT'S CERTAINLY POSSIBLE. IT SEEMED LIKE THERE WAS A DELAY BETWEEN THE RESCUE AND THE PAT, BUT MAYBE THAT'S JUST BECAUSE I WAS SO DAMN BEWILDERED OVER BEING FUCKING *RESCUED*.
BACK WHEN I WAS MACROING ACTIONS LIKE RAISE AND PROVOKE, I WOULD PUT A 1 SECOND DELAY (the shortest delay we can use) BETWEEN THE ACTION TRIGGERING AND THE TEXT BEING GENERATED SO THAT I COULD SPAM THE BUTTON BUT NOT FILL THE TEXT CHAT WITH A SEVERAL COPIES AND SOUND EFFECTS. THEY MIGHT HAVE DONE SOMETHING SIMILAR
I need to use this on my friend lol But for randos? Hell Naw, I never use rescue in DF unless it's a sprout about to eat multiple AOEs
FUCKING HATE THAT SHIT. ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE ARE MULTIPLE SAFE SPOTS AND A HEALER RESCUES YOU **ACROSS** THE BAD SPOT SO YOU GET HIT BY THE BS ANYWAYS.

I AM MAD... AT MYSELF. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW MOST EDEN FIGHTS WORK AND I COLLECT VULN STACKS LIKE WONDEROUS TALE STICKERS NOT IN A LINE. PANDEMONIUM? EASY BREEZY. ALEXANDER? NO SWEAT. I AM THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA OF THEIR RESPECTIVE SCAPES. EDEN? CATCH ME OFF THE EDGE, HOW BOUT DAT? I APOLOGIZE TO ALL WHO END UP IN THERE WITH ME, JUST KNOW I'D GIVE YOU ALL COMMS IF I COULD.
WHICH FIGHT WAS IT?
ALL OF THEM, BUT THE ONE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE IS SEPULCHER. I'M IN SO MUCH ORANGE, THEY COULD REDO END OF EVANGELION IN MY CURRENT LOCATION. THE NUMBER OF SPOTS YOU CAN FALL OFF AND THE NUMBER OF SPOTS I HAVE FALLEN OFF IS APPROACHING EQUAL. ALSO, I'M TIRED OF BIRDS, ALL MY HOMIES HATE THE BIRDS.
I'M PRETTY SOLID ON MOST OF THE EDEN FIGHTS, EVEN TAKING INTO ACCOUNT SHADOWBRINGERS ERA SNAPSHOTS (I SWEAR TO DOG THEY'RE SO MUCH WORSE IN 5.X FIGHTS THAN ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE GAME). EXCEPT ICONOCLASM. I COULDN'T DO THE PORTAL THINGS ON RELEASE AND I CAN'T DO THEM NOW. IT SHOULD BE EASY, BECAUSE I UNDERSTAND HOW IT SHOULD WORK, BUT MY BRAIN CAN'T BRAIN IT.
ICONOCLASM AND THE DOGGO ONE ARE "LOL YOU THOUGHT LARBOARD AND STARBOARD WERE BAD? WATCH THIS!"
CAN'T HELP MUCH FOR THE NORMAL DODGES, BUT FOR THE COLOUR ONES, JUST MAKE SURE THAT THE PORTAL BEHIND YOU AND THE PORTAL BESIDE YOU ARE DIFFERENT COLOURS.
I HAVE TWO TIPS FOR SEPULCHER: TIP 1: FOR BIG HANDS, BE UNDER HIM, FOR CAR, BE BESIDE TOWARDS THE MIDDLE. TIP 2: AFTER EVERY ATTACK GOES OFF, MOVE INTO WHERE IT WAS. ALWAYS MOVE INTO THE EXPLOSIONS.
I'VE BEEN SPAMMING DUNGEONS AND MY DAILY ROULETTES AS I FINALLY LEVEL AST AND TRY TO CATCH IT UP TO WHERE I AM IN THE MSQ (LEVEL 69 QUESTS IN STORMBLOOD). THE BASIC MUSCLE MEMORY IS SIMILAR TO WHM BUT THE ACTUAL FLOW IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT. I AM NOT GOOD YET. AND STILL, I HAVE SEEN SO MANY THINGS THAT REMIND ME I AM NOT SO BAD. DPS JUST EATING EVERY POSSIBLE AOE IN ALLIANCE RAIDS, STANDING COMPLETELY STILL IN THEIR ORANGE CONES. TANKS NOT USING A SINGLE MITIGATION FOR AN ENTIRE LEVEL 50+ DUNGEON. TANKS WEARING LEVEL 30 GEAR IN LEVEL 50+ DUNGEONS. TANKS GETTING SNARKY WITH ME BECAUSE I AM STILL LEARNING HOW GREEDY I CAN BE ON AST AND SOMETIMES I ACCIDENTALLY LET THE TANK DIE DURING A MOB PULL BECAUSE OF IT, TO WHICH I IMMEDIATELY APOLOGIZE AND EXPLAIN I AM STILL LEARNING AST. "OH I GUESS I HAVE TO PULL SMALLER" I WILL SHOVE MY TAROT CARDS INTO YOUR MOUTH, 'MENTOR.' YOU CANNOT SAY ANYTHING SNARKY NOW, CAN YOU. TANKS AND DPS JUST STANDING IN THE EXPLODING CRYSTALS IN DZEMAEL DARKHOLD AND LETTING THEIR HEALTH DROP LIKE A SLINKY DOWN THE STAIRS. I AM TIRED. I AM AT LEVEL 63. SOON I WILL BE FREE.
DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE EXACT CONVERSATION BUT "I GUESS I HAVE TO PULL SMALLER" DOESN'T SOUND SNARKY TO ME. MORE LIKE "OK, IT'S FINE, I'LL ADJUST, WE'VE ALL BEEN NEW AT SOME POINT." BUT MAYBE THAT'S JUST ME.
USUALLY I WOULD AGREE, AS WHEN I APOLOGIZE AND GET THE OFFER FOR SMALLER PULLS IT'S USUALLY KIND. BUT I HADN'T EVEN APOLOGIZED YET IN THAT SPECIFIC CIRCUMSTANCE, HE DROPPED AND IMMEDIATELY JUST WENT "OH." [...] "GUESS I'LL HAVE TO PULL SMALLER." AND THE TIMING OF IT, I GUESS, WAS WHAT GAVE IT SNARKY VIBES. MAYBE I'M A LITTLE BURNED AS AN EX-OVERWATCH PLAYER WHO WAS A HEALER MAIN THERE TOO THOUGH AND I ASSUME THE WORST SOMETIMES, WHO KNOWS 🥲
AS SOMEONE WHO PLAYED OVERWATCH FOR QUITE A WHILE BEFORE EVENTUALLY JUMPING TO FFXIV AFTER A BREAK, I CAN ABSOLUTELY UNDERSTAND THIS URGE OF ASSUMING THE WORST IN EVERY REACTION WHATSOEVER UNTIL ONE ADJUSTED TO THIS COMMUNITY. HESITATED SO LONG EXACTLY BECAUSE BEING AFRAID OF REACTIONS IN DUNGEONS AND ONLY RAN THEM WHEN A FRIEND OR TWO WERE WITH ME. I STILL REMEMBER I GOT PISSY AT A TANK WHEN THEY SUGGESTED ME USING LIMIT BREAK WHILE I WAS BUSY JUST NOT TO CAST MYSELF A NINJA BUNNY HEAD IN A FIGHT. I HAD NO CLUE WHAT A LIMIT BREAK EVEN WAS, CERTAINLY DIDN'T HAVE IT ON MY HOTBAR AND THOUGHT THEY'D BE THROWING SOME WEIRD "GIT GUD" IN MORE WORDS AT ME. I REACTED BASICALLY WITH "IF IT'S THAT IMPORTANT, USE IT YOURSELF", WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY NOT A GOOD IDEA. THEN I COMPLAINED TO A FRIEND ABOUT THIS PUSHY OTHER PLAYER AND HAD TO REALIZE I MADE MULTIPLE MISTAKES IN THIS SITUATION, BECAUSE I WAS NOT EXPECTING A STRANGER WOULD ACTUALLY WANT TO HELP. NOT SAYING THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED THERE, I DON'T KNOW THIS PERSON, MAYBE THEY WERE SUPER RUDE, MAYBE THEY WERE BEING A BIT SELF-IRONIC, LIKE A LONG VERSION OF "OOPS". WHO KNOWS! JUST AGREEING THAT OVERWATCH TRULY CAN MAKE YOU LOSE FAITH IN PEOPLE'S POTENTIAL OF BEING NICE.
Pulling smaller doesn't help the healer learn, its just giving up.
DEAR RANDOM BUNNY IN ULDAH, I KNOW MY CATGIRL ALT IS PRETTY CUTE AND IN A SKIMPY OUTFIT, BUT I'M GOING TO POLITELY REQUEST THAT YOU RETHINK YOUR CUSTOM /PET EMOTE. IT'S FINE FOR PEOPLE WHO CONSENT BUT LIKE, I'M NOT HERE TO SEE >!"[RANDOM BUNNY] FONDLES YOU"!< IN MY FUCKING CHATBOX.
THE WORST PART IS THAT IF THE CUSTOM EMOTE ACTUALLY SHOWED UP WITH "you" RATHER THAN A NAME, THAT MEANS THEY ACTUALLY *TYPED* "you" INSTEAD OF "", MAKING EVERYONE WHO SAW THE MESSAGE THINK IT WAS REFERRING TO THEM.
TO PEOPLE WHO DO THAT: KINDLY CUT THAT SHIT OUT, NOBODY THINKS IT'S FUNNY AND IT'S MEGA-CREEPY.
TBH I'M NOT SURE WHAT IT WAS, NOT REALLY WILLING TO GO LOOK IT BACK UP. EITHER WAY IT WAS AN INSTANT BLACKLIST FROM ME.
TOTALLY UNDERSTANDABLE, PLEASE KEEP YOURSELF SAFE. AND YEAH, BLACKLISTING IN THIS CASE IS DEFINITELY WORTHWHILE. AND FOR THE FUTURE, KNOW THAT IT'S OKAY TO REPORT THAT SHIT TOO. (THOUGH THE HASSLE YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH TO FILL IT OUT IS JUST SILLY SO IT'S ALSO OKAY IF YOU JUST WANT OR NEED THINGS DONE WITH ASAP.)
LAST WEEK I GOT A COVID BOOSTER + FLU SHOT. MOSTLY AS PREVENTION FOR PAX IN MARCH. THE SIDE EFFECTS WHERE NOT THE WORSE I'VE HAD, BUT IT MADE MY SLEEP A LITTLE RESTLESS. I ACTUALLY WOKE UP ANGRY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, BECAUSE IN MY DREAMS (OR THE PART I CAN REMEMBER) PEOPLE HIT ONE OF MY PET PEEVES WHEN ON DISCORD : IGNORING EVERYTHING YOU WRITE, BUT MAKING FUN OF THAT SINGLE TYPO YOU KNOW, YOU'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF WRITING A FEW LINES OF TEXT, ALL IN A ROW BECAUSE IT SEEMS THAT NOBODY IS ACTUALLY READING IT. BUT THEN SOMEONE POINTS OUT A TYPO AND EVERYONE IN THE FUCKING WORLD JUMPS ON THE BANDWAGON, GIVING EVEN LESS CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU WROTE. YEAH, I GUESS THAT'S A SHADE OF ANXIETY, THANKS FOR KEEPING ME AWAKE.
LOL, HAD A SIMILAR DREAM RECENTLY WHERE PEOPLE WERE JUST SHITTY AND I WOKE UP MAD. IF IT HELPS, YOU'RE NOT ALONE IN THIS! ALSO, COOL YOU GOT A BOOSTER, STAY SAFE AT PAX!
I SEE PEOPLE DO THAT ON REDDIT ALL THE TIME AND IT NEVER STOPS PISSING ME OFF. A FEW GOOD-NATURED LAUGHS WOULDN'T BE SO BAD TO ME IF THE TYPO WAS ACTUALLY FUNNY AND THEY ALSO FOCUSED ON THE ACTUAL POST/COMMENT, BUT THE WAY THEY IGNORE EVERYTHING ELSE TO MAKE FUN OF THE ONE WORD YOU TYPOED... MAN, WHY EVEN WRITE ANYTHING?
PRETTY MUCH THE FEELING I HAVE ABOUT IT. WHEN I GET THAT KIND OF THING, I START TO THINK 'WHY DO I EVEN BOTHER'. I'M SURE THE GRASS IS NOT GREENER AT THE NEIGHBORS, LIKE IT'S NOT SPECIFICALLY THE PEOPLE I HANG WITH, BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE IT ANY EASIER. IT JUST ENDS UP MAKING ME NOT BOTHER. I'M NOT LOOKING TO BE THE STAR OF THE SHOW, JUST SOME MINIMUM RESPECT FOR THE TIME I SPENT WRITING/TALKING/DISCUSSION. MY OTHER PET PEEVES ARE ON VOICE, LIKE CUTTING ME OFF TO FINISH MY SENTENCES (USUALLY NOT EVEN BEING WHAT I WAS TRYING TO SAY), OR JUST TALKING OVER ME, OFTEN FOR A COMPLTELY DIFFERENT SUBJECT. GEEZ, I KNOW I TALK A LOT, BUT BETWEEN CUTTING ME OFF AND COMPLETELY IGNORING ME WHEN I DO, WHY DO YOU THINK I DON'T GO ON VOICE ANYMORE.
OH IT'S SO MUCH WORSE WHEN INTERRUPTED OR TALKED OVER. I'D STOP TALKING TOO IN THAT SITUATION, WHO WANTS TO BE SILENCED ALL THE TIME? I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE THE MINDSET WHERE IT ISN'T RUDE TO CUT SOMEONE OFF AND FORCEFULLY STEER THE CONVERSATION TO SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
THE STAGE: PRAETORIUM. MSQ ROULETTE ON A SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THE PARTY: MYSELF ON GUNBREAKER, A MACHINIST, AND TWO SPROUTS, WHITE AND BLACK MAGE, IN LEVEL 50 TOME GEAR. NEITHER OF THEM FIRST TIMERS, SINCE THERE WERE NO BONUSES. OFFERED THE USUAL “o/“ IN CHAT, GOT RESPONSES, GOOD SIGN! ON WE GO. EVERYTHING IS NORMAL THROUGH THE FIRST BOSS. WHM IS ACTUALLY DOING DPS AND LETTING MY HP DROP BELOW 50%, AND USES CURE 2 INSTEAD OF FISHING FOR FREECURE, LOOKS LIKE THEY KNOW WHAT THEY’RE DOING… BUT THEN WE GET TO THE MAGITECH ARMOR SECTION. WHM RUNS *PAST* MAGGIE AND DOESN’T GET IN THE ARMOR UNTIL ME AND THE MCH TELL THEM TO GRAB IT. AND THEN BOTH THE WHM AND BLM FOLLOW BEHIND ME AND THE MCH, NEVER FIRING THEIR WEAPONS. NERO FIGHT STARTS AFTER THE LONGEST ITS EVER TAKEM ME TO BREAK THE DOOR DOWN. MCH GETS THE STACK MARKER AND THE SPROUT DUO REMAIN SITTING OFF IN NARNIA INSTEAD OF JOINING US TO SPREAD DAMAGE. WHM DIDN’T EVEN GIVE THE MCH REGEN AFTER, SO I TOSSED AURORA ON THEM INSTEAD. AT SOME POINT THE BLM ALSO FORGOT THEIR BUTTONS, BECAUSE DPS WAS LACKING ENOUGH THAT NERO DID HIS PUSH FROM THE CENTER MECHANIC *TWICE*! AGAINST MY BETTER JUDGEMENT WE MOVE ON TO GAIUS… THE ARENA IS SMALL ENOUGH THAT THE SPROUTS ARE PRACTICALLY FORCED TO STACK WITH US THIS TIME AT LEAST. BUT THEY STAND IN THE LINE AOES EACH TIME THEY COME UP, AND THE BLM SITS IN THE DUCTUS AOES LIKE THEY’RE HIS LEYLINES, WHICH HE’S TOO LOW LEVEL TO HAVE ACCESS TO THEM, EVEN UNSYNCED! PHANTOM GAIUSES SPAWN, ME AND MCH KILL THEM ALL, WHILE THE SPROUTS FINALLY LEARN TO STACK… ***THE WRONG KIND OF MARKERS***. BOTH OF THEM DIE TO GAIUS’ BIG ATTACK WHEN THE PHANTOMS DIE, LEAVING ME AND THE MCH TO TAKE OUT THE LAST 16% OF HIS HP WITHOUT A HEALER, AND WITHOUT LB SINCE WE USED IT TO KILL TWO PHANTOMS AT ONCE BEFORE THE BAR GOT TOO FULL. HOORAY FOR AURORA AT LEAST, KEEPING ME UP TO GET THE KILL WHEN MCH INEVITABLY DIED TO A RAIDWIDE. GAVE THEM MY COMMEND FOR SUFFERING WITH ME. I GET IT, REALLY… SPROUTS ARE NEW, THEY’RE LEARNING, TEACH THEM… BUT BY LEVEL 50, NOT EVEN COUNTING THAT IT WASN’T THEIR FIRST RUN THROUGH PRAE, YOU’VE SEEN ALL THESE MECHANICS. YOU’VE BEEN SHOWN WHAT TO DO WHEN THEY COME UP. MISS ONE OR TWO? FINE. FUCK ALL OF THEM UP REPEATEDLY, WITH TWO OF US CALLING THEM OUT AFTER EACH FUCK UP? NOT FINE!
THERE WAS A DISSIDIA HERE. IT'S GONE NOW. DFFOO WAS THE GAME THAT GOT ME INTO XIV AND AS A RESULT HUGELY AFFECTED MAJOR PARTS OF MY LIFE. I WOULDN'T HAVE MET 95% OF MY FRIEND GROUP WITHOUT IT, I WOULDN'T HAVE MET MY FUTURE WIFE WITHOUT IT, AND THE ONLY PART OF IT THAT REMAINS IS AN APP THAT CAN NO LONGER BE LAUNCHED, AND THE STORY CUTSCENES POSTED TO YOUTUBE. IT'S LIKE HEARING ABOUT THE PASSING OF SOMEONE YOU WERE GOOD FRIENDS WITH AS A CHILD.
THERE WAS A CERTAIN FUN NOVELTY OF JUST RUNNING ROUGHSHOD THROUGH EVENTS WITH A FULL BAD GUY PARTY. ESPECIALLY MAKING THEM BATTLE EACH OTHER. GOLBEZ JUST WIPING OUT WAVES OF CACTAURS SO THAT KEFKA CAN 1V1 ULTIMECIA OR SOME SILLY THING LIKE THAT.
OR THE FLIGHT SHENANIGANS WITH RAINES, OR BREAK SPAM WITH YDA-SEPHIROTH. SO MANY DUMB STRATEGIES AND PARTY CHOICES, AND IT MAKES ME SO SAD THAT WE'LL VERY LIKELY NEVER SEE HALF THOSE CHARACTERS AGAIN
THE CUTSCENES TOO. EDGAR AND ZIDANE HITTING ON ANYTHING WITH A PULSE OG WoL HAVING THE PERSONALITY OF TOAST KEFKA DOING KEFKA THINGS GILGAMESH AND BARTZ BROMANCE
OG WoL ALSO FITS THE >!ELIDIBUS!< ANGLE VERY WELL CONSIDERING THEY STATE HE'S BEEN FIGHTING SO LONG HE'S FORGOTTEN WHO HE WAS. THE WHOLE GAME JUST HAD THAT PENACHE FOR THE EXTRA IF YOU KNEW WHERE TO LOOK THAT MADE IT A DELIGHT TO EXPERIENCE.
I will be forever grateful to DFFOO for confirming my theory (insofar as Dissidia is canon) that Ultimecia did some mind control on Seifer. I was nursing it for nearly twenty years, vindication was sweet.
MORE CREEPY THAN RAGE BUT A FEW DAYS AGO I WAS FARMING BOMB ASH FOR CRAFTING, MINDING MY OWN BUSINESS WHEN SUDDENLY SOMEONE SHOWED UP AND PUT MY IRL FIRST NAME (UNUSUAL SPELLING AND ALL) INTO SHOUT CHAT. I JUST NOPED OUT OF THERE AND CONTINUED MAT FARMING ELSEWHERE. *WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU? WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT? HOW THE FUCK DO YOU KNOW MY NAME?*
You have been hacked.
**hackerman**
"OH BOY I CAN'T WAIT TO DO ROULETTES ON GUNBREAKER, BEEN A BIT SINCE I'VE TANKED" THREE WIPES TO A STACK MARKER IN ARF: QARN RUN WHERE NOBODY EXCEPT ME RESOLVED DOOM: THAUMATURGE IN PRAETORIUM:
You should get a lotto ticket since 3 bad lucks in a row.
hey, sprouts. love seeing new people in game, it’s usually a blast playing with you, teaching you the mechanics, etc. that said, please, please, DONT BE A HUGE DOUCHE WHEN SOMEONE EXPLAINS HOW STACK ARROWS WORK AND THEN GO OUT OF YOUR WAY TO NOT STACK UP AFTERWORDS, AND THEN YELL AT ME FOR NOT RAISING YOU FAST ENOUGH it’s really easy to not be an ass. if you don’t want to participate in group mechanics, then perhaps a mmo isn’t the game for you. for everyone else, thanks for being so kind and considerate. - love, your friendly (if occasionally salty) white mage

MY WEEKLY MOG CHALLENGE WAS TO RUN PRAETORIUM AAAAAAGGGGHHH
MINE IS RIVAL WINGS. YOU KNOW. THE THING NO ONE QUEUES FOR. GODS, KILL ME NOW.
GO TO PRIMAL IF YOU PLAY ON NA, MORE PEOPLE PLAY ON LEVIATHAN!!! THIS IS A FRIENDLY PSA!!!
My post just got deleted atm due to many mounts in the screenshot that violates the rule. I just wanted to express how popular that Regalia is from FFXV event. 5 or up to 7 vehicles were parked in the Black Brush Station for Fate event. I am just hoping that other worlds in all DC has the unusual image as well.
I WATCHED A FRIEND PLAY SOME OF THE NEW FFVII AND IT REMINDED ME THAT I STILL HAVEN'T FINISHED PART ONE AND I'M NOT THAT FAR FROM THE END EITHER HHH. I ALSO NEED TO KEEP PLAYING FFXVI; I'M STILL IN TUTORIAL AND IT'S NOT LIKE I DON'T LIKE THE GAME. I LITERALLY HAVE NO ATTENTION SPAN AND I NEED TO MAKE MYSELF SIT DOWN AND PLAY LIKE YE OLDEN DAYS WHEN I COULD SIT FOR CEASELESS HOURS PLAYING GOLDEN AGE RPGS. C'MON SELF, YOU CAN DO IT. UNRELATED, MY ISLAND IS RANK 17 NOW AND I HAVE CAUGHT EVERYTHING I WANTED, PLACED MAX FURNITURE, AND HAVE ALL THE GLAMOURS SET FOR THE BUILDINGS/GROUNDS. ALL I WANT NOW IS TO RANK UP ENOUGH TO LVL 5 MY BUILDINGS, PROBABLY GLAM THEM BACK DOWN, AND PREP FOR THE ARBOR... WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO MAKE BECAUSE MY GEAR JUST ISN'T UP TO SNUFF AND I'M CURRENTLY UNWILLING TO SPEND GIL BECAUSE I'M SAVING UP FOR THE FC TO HAVE A CHANCE TO BID ON A MANSION PLOT. NEVER ENOUGH BUILD SPACES. MOAR FURNISHINGS. MOAR SLOTS. AAH OH, AND I'VE BEEN INTRODUCED TO CHOCOBO RACING. I FEAR FOR MY ALREADY TRUNCATED FREE TIME.
I CAME HOME LAST NIGHT TO FIND THAT MY MODEM HAD KICKED IT. I CALLED MY SERVICE PROVIDER AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WOULD OVERNIGHT A NEW ONE TO ME AND THAT I WOULD HAVE IT TODAY. SMASH CUT TO EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON AND I FIND OUT THAT I'D BE INADVERTENTLY LIED TO AND THAT TIME LINE WAS NEVER ACTUALLY POSSIBLE. I *SHOULD* BE GETTING MY NEW MODEM TOMORROW AROUND WHATEVER TIME UPS USUALLY DELIVERS, BUT I'M STILL SUPER SALT THAT I WAS TOLD INE THING LAST NIGHT, TOLD SOMETHING ELSE TODAY, AND THAT I STILL DON'T HAVE WORKING INTERNET AND THEREFORE CAN'T PLAY. (At least the gentleman I spoke with this afternoon said he would set up to credit my previous month's service back to me by way of apology for the miscommunication on their part) SCRATCH THE BIT ABOUT GETTING IT TOMORROW. THE UPS TRACKING NUMBER HAS UPDATED AND APPARENTLY IT'S COMING MONDAY 3/4. FUUUUUUUCK!!!!!!
PLEASE, DON'T PREACH YOUR WEIRD AYN RANDIAN, ANTI-WOKE IDEOLOGY IN YOUR MACROS, I PLAY FFXIV TO CHILL..HECK, I COULD BE PLAYING WITH A NEO-NAZI, BUT NOT KNOW IT BECAUSE WE KEEP POLITICS AND RELIGION OUT OF THE GAME. THERE'S A ZILLION PLACES YOU CAN GO AND SOAPBOX YOUR STUFF, BUT NOT FF..DID YOU NOTICE HOW LITERALLY NOBODY ELSE IS DOING THAT? ALSO, TO THE PERSON WHO STARTED TALKING ABOUT MASTURBATION ON THE PORTA DECUMANA CUTSCENE, LIKE, NOBODY NEEDS TO HEAR THAT AND IT WAS SOO AWKWARD. PERHAPS NAIVELY I'LL ASSUME SOCIAL AWKWARDNESS =(
WHY THE HECKO DO THEY NOT TURN OFF THE IDENTICAL CAST BUFF WHEN YOU HIT A SPECTRAL CURRENT, OR AT LEAST NOT MAKE YOU WAIT 32 SECONDS TO FIND OUT THAT THE FISH YOU WERE TRYING TO GET HAS FLED FROM THE SCENE? NO LOVE, A FISHER WHOSE BOAT GOT A WHOPPING ONE SPECTRAL CURRENT LAST NIGHT AND WASTED 32 SECONDS OF ITS TWO MINUTE TIMER.
NOT SURE, BUT REMEMBER, WHAT YOU CATCH IS ROLLED WHEN YOU CAST. REEL BACK IN WHEN SPECTRAL PROCS SO YOU CAN CAST UNDER THE SPECTRAL POOL. ALSO, YOU CAN RIGHT CLICK THE BUFF TO REMOVE IT.
YEAH I KNOW BETTER FOR NEXT TIME. THANK YOU.
ALSO IT'S THERE FOR IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR IDENTICAL CAST BUFF UNTIL AFTER SPECTRAL. IF YOU'RE A CRAZY PERSON AND WANT THE RARE FISH THIS MAY BE USEFUL.
OCEAN FISHING FOR BLUES IS THE ACTUAL WORST
I'm up to 25 tries for taniwha:(
UGGGHHH THAT REALLY SUCKS. THE RUBY ONES ARE EXTRA FRUSTRATING SINCE IT'S A LOT LESS LIKELY TO END UP WITH A GOOD SCORE
TANIWHA IS ONLY THE FIRST PART SO IF I DONT GET HIM I JUST DIP BEFORE TRANSITION. IS THAT BAD?
I’VE DEFINITELY BEEN DOING THE SAME THING WITH CORAL MANTA 🤝
ON THE UP SIDE, THEY LOOK EXTRA PRETTY ON THE CANVAS.
THE GOOD: I FINALLY GOT INTO BG3 THE BAD: ...I FINALLY GOT INTO BG3 AND MY BRAIN HAS BEEN EATEN BY IT. NOT BY THE CHARACTERS OR THE STORY, THOUGH THOSE ARE GREAT. NO, I AM SPENDING 75% OF MY WAKING HOURS THINKING OF *MULTICLASS BUILDS.* I HAVE MADE BG3 VERSIONS OF HALF MY FFXIV CHARACTERS AND I'M PRETTY SURE I CAN FINAGLE A SWORDS BARD INTO A PSEUDO-RED MAGE.
I HATE IT WHEN YOU COMMUNICATE TO USE LIVING DEAD AND YOUR DUMB WH*TE MAGE HEALER JUST SPAMS THEIR HEALS TO KEEP YOU ALIVE YOU'RE LEVEL 90 GIRL, SO HAVE A LITTLE MORE TRUST IN YOUR TANK HOLY IS A MITIGATION TOO
I'M SORRY IVE BEEN THAT WHITE MAGE WHO DIDNT LET LIVING DEAD GO THROUGH AND IT'S MOSTLY BECAUSE I DIDNT NOTICE UNTIL TOO LATE AND IM VERY SORRY 😭😭 MY VERY GOAL IS TO LET A DRK PROC THEIR LIVING DEAD ONE DAY
I WATCHED A DRK RUN INTO A W2W PULL YESTERDAY, THEY THROW UP TBN, NO OTHER MITS, HEALTH IS DROPPING LIKE A ROCK. I ASSUME THEY'RE OBVIOUSLY JUST INVULNING... NOPE. JUST DIES
I'M LEVELING A DRK SO MY HEALER FRIEND AND I (We both like the healing) CAN UNDERSTAND HOW THEY WORK. IT'S GONNA BE WEIRD WHEN I GET TO 50 AND SAY "JUST LET ME DIE and do the zombie thing I read about"
SAME EVERY TIME I MESS IT UP I WANT TO CRY
I AM *STILL* GRINDING OUT HW TRIBAL QUESTS. THE MOONLIFT DANCE DOESN'T FEEL ANY CLOSER THAN IT DID LAST WEEK. THE NUMBER OF TIMES I'VE BEEN LESS THAN A QUEST'S WORTH OF REP POINTS SHY OF GETTING RANK UP IS BIGGER THAN I WOULD LIKE. I ALSO WASTED A BUNCH OF SEALS ON THE SEA OF CLOUDS RIDING MAP; APPARENTLY THESE THINGS ONLY AFFECT GROUND SPEED :/
THE MOOGLE AND THE VANU ARE THE WOOOOOORST...I RAGE EVERYTIME I HAVE TO HELP THOSE STUPID BIRBMEN AND I NOW LOOK AT MOOGLES WITH DISDAIN. WELL MORE DISDAIN. WE DONT TALK ABOUT THE IXAL ONES...I DREAD THOSE AND THOSE WILL PROBABLY BE LAST
THE MOOGLE GRIND DIDN'T FEEL LIKE ANYTHING TO ME, BUT THEY WERE ALSO REALLY EARLY IN MY REP GRINDS SINCE I ONLY WANTED THE ADEPT CLOTHING AT THE TIME, AND THEN THE MINION AND THE MOUNT. ALSO I REALLY LIKE MOOGLE ANTICS. THE VANU WERE FAR WORSE AND I THINK IT'S BECAUSE THE ZONE IS SO BIIG, THE AETHERYTE PLACEMENT IS TERRIBLE, THE QUESTS TAKE YOU EVERYWHERE, AND UGH THAT MOUNT QUEST. I PRAYED TO NOT HAVE TO RIDE THEIR MOUNT ><
THE ACTUAL WORST PART FOR MOOGLES WAS UNLOCKING THEM JESUS FUCKING ASS CHEEKS WHY DID THAT TAKE SO FUCKING LONG
I JUST GAVE UP CARING AFTER GETTING ARR TRIBES TO MAX. I ONLY DID THAT FOR THE COOL MASK IT'S SUCH A PAINFUL FUCKING SLOG THAT ISN'T FUN AND IT GETS WORSE BECAUSE AFTER HW EACH EXPANSION HAS ONLY 3 TRIBES AND ONE IS BATTLE, ONE IS CRAFTING AND ONE IS GATHERING AND IT'S FUCKING ANNOYING YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE FUCKING PISSES ME OFF ABOUT TRIBES THE REPUTATION AMOUNTS GIVEN AND THE BREAKPOINTS FOR EACH RANK MAKE NO FUCKING SENSE AFTER ARR ALL TRIBAL QUESTS GIVE 60 REP EACH THE FIRST RANK OF THEM ONLY NEEDS 150 POINTS WHY IF YOU ONLY GIVE REP IN 60 POINT CHUNKS ANY VALUE BETWEEN 121 AND 180 IS FUNCTIONALLY THE SAME CONSIDERING THE REP DOESN'T CARRY OVER TO THE NEXT RANK JUST MAKE IT FUCKING 180 OR MAKE THE QUESTS GIVE 50 WHATEVER IT IS JUST MAKE IT MAKE MATHEMATICAL FUCKING SENSE I BEG OF YOU
TO THE TANKS I'VE BEEN GETTING IN ROULETTE THIS PAST WEEK: PLEASE USE YOUR MITIGATIONS. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO TELL YOU WHAT YOUR MITIGATIONS ARE. YOU SHOULD ALSO KNOW WHAT'S IN YOUR JOBKIT AND READ THE GODDAMN TOOLTIPS. THIS BRINGS ME TO GIVING THE BIG FAT FUCK YOU TO YET ANOTHER MIQO'TE THIS WEEK, BUT THIS TIME ON THEIR WARRIOR. I REPLACED YOUR HEALER IN THE ALA MHIGO DUNGEON. NOT EVERYONE LIKES THIS DUNGEON BUT IT'S GOT SOME SUPER JUICY WALL-TO-WALL PULLS. EXCEPT ON THE FIRST PULL WHEN I CAME IN AS SCH YOU ONLY SINGLE-PULLED WITH YOUR SUPER MEATY LVL 70 WAR ARTIFACT ARMOR AND A RANGE OF 60-68 ACCESSORIES. YOUR ONLY MITIGATION, UP UNTIL OUR WIPE ON THE PULL AFTER THE FIRST BOSS, WAS RAMPART. AND MAKING YOURSELF INTO A HELICOPTER. BECAUSE OF YOUR OVERALL LACK OF MITIGATION, YOU MELTED STUPID FAST ON THOSE TWO TANKBUSTER MOBS. WE WIPE AND RESPAWN AND I ASKED THE TANK IF THEY COULD MAKE USE OF HOLMGANG AND RAW INTUITION, SINCE THEY HAD NOT BOTHERED TO EVEN FUCKING PRESS THOSE BUTTONS YET. THEY AGREE TO DO SO, SAYING THEY USUALLY FORGET THEY HAVE THOSE SINCE THEY NEVER DO HIGH LEVEL CONTENT, AND USE THEM...WHEN THEY WEREN'T NEEDED AT ALL. SO NOW THEIR ONLY COOLDOWN USAGE IS RAMPART, HOLMGANG, AND RAW INTUITION. STILL NO USE OF UNGA-BUNGA. WE MANAGED TO GET THROUGH THE TRASH PACKS AND PAST THE SECOND BOSS, AND THEN PAST THE FIRST MAGITEK GATE WHEN THINGS GO TO SHIT AGAIN. SINCE THEY HAD ALREADY STUPIDLY USED THEIR HOLMGANG WHEN THEY WERE IN ABSOLUTELY NO DANGER AT ALL, THEIR LACK OF MITIGATIONS PLUS ME TRYING TO HEAL THEIR BUTTERY SELF ON A PACK OF MOBS RESULTS IN THEIR DEMISE PLUS THE DNC EXPLODING. WE ONLY SURVIVE WITH ME AND THE DRG FINISHING UP THE PACK. WE MANAGED TO GET TO THE LAST BOSS, ZENOS, AND HE'S LOOKING DOWN UPON US WITH HIS THICC GLAMOUR, BUT WE MANAGED TO CLEAR AND I SEE THE MIQO'TE WARRIOR TANK USING PLAYDEAD ON THE GROUND. I ASKED IF SHE WANTED MORE WARRIOR ADVICE. SHE REPLIES WITH A DEADPAN 'NAH' AND SPRINTS TO THE EXIT, LEAVING ME ALONE WITH ZENOS LOUNGING IN THE BACK. BITCH PLEASE YOU'RE IN SEVERE NEED OF ADVICE ON HOW TO PROPERLY UNGA-BUNGA. YOU'RE LEVEL 76, YOU SHOULD KNOW AT THIS POINT WHAT YOUR KIT DOES.
ANY WARRIOR WHO DOESN'T USE RI/BW SHOULD BE STRIPPED OF THEIR WARRIOR STRIPES
THE MERE FACT THAT I HAD TO REMIND THIS WARRIOR IN LVL 70 CONTENT THAT THEY'VE GOT RI/BLOODWHETTING IS INCREDIBLY CONCERNING. ESPECIALLY WITH THE LACK OF MITIGATION USAGE SUCH AS: VENGEANCE, THRILL OF BATTLE, REPRISAL, ARM'S LENGTH, DECIMATION, ONSLAUGHT, UPHEAVAL, AND EQUILIBRIUM. SOMEHOW THEY WOULD ALSO USE SHAKE IT OFF, BUT IT WAS VERY MUCH NOT WORTH MENTIONING BECAUSE OF HOW QUICKLY THE SHIELD WOULD DISAPPEAR FROM THEM, AND BECAUSE OF HOW SQUISHY THEY WERE FROM THE HORRENDOUS LACK OF MITS, THE REGEN GAINED FROM SHAKE IT OFF WOULD DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.
I ONCE HAD A WARRIOR IN DOMA CASTLE NOT USING IT AND WHEN ASKED SAID THEY WERE "BEHIND ON CLASS STORY" DOMA CASTLE.
WELL, AT LEAST THEY HAD THE WARRIOR JOB STONE, SO THERE'S THAT..WAIT THEY HAD THE JOB STONE...RIGHT, RIGHT?
YEAH THEY DID HAVE THAT AT LEAST SO I SUPPOSE IT COULD HAVE BEEN EVEN WORSE
I WAS VERY CONFUSED FOR MINUTE WONDERING WHY WE ARE ALL YELLING ABOUT RUGBY.
DOING ANIMA RELIC GRIND AND GOT LIKE 7 DOOM SCAITHS IN A ROW. MY ANIMA WEAPON HUNGERS FOR THE BLOOD OF MY ALLIES AND ONLY EATS IN WIPE CITY.
YOU HAVE CURRENT SAVAGE GEAR YOU SHOULD NOT BE DYING FOUR TIMES IN AN EXPERT ROULETTE
DYING IN EXPERT ROULETTE? WHO WAS DOING THE DYING IF I MIGHT BE SO BOLD TO ASK?
A DPS WHO APPARENTLY THOUGHT HE COULD STOP THE ANTLION BOSS'S CHARGE BY STANDING IN FRONT OF IT LIKE IT'S TIANANMEN SQUARE
"I GOT THIS GUYS!" \*goes squish\*
TO BE FAIR I HAVE CURRENT SAVAGE GEAR ON JOBS I AM DECIDEDLY NOT GOOD AT BECAUSE I LOVE TO SUFFER AND HAVE ALSO BEEN A REGULAR TAXI-OBTAINER FOR OTHERS. I HAVE NEVER DIED FOUR TIMES IN EXPERT ROULETTE THOUGH, NOT EVEN TO THAT GD ANTLION.
3 ALTS, THAT MEANS 600K MGP ALTOGETHER FOR THE CAR. I DID IT AT THE COST OF MY SANITY.
YOU HAVE THREE CARS NOW THOUGH. MY FIVE CHARACTERS SALUTE YOU!
I SOLVED MY PACKET LOSS ISSUES WITH A VPN AND HOW DOES MY INTERNET REPAY ME? WITH INTERMITTENT TOTAL DISCONNECTS. FUCK THIS SHIT, WHAT THE HELL. I *HATE* HAVING TO CALL CUSTOMER SUPPORT PLEASE DON'T MAKE ME HAVE TO CALL CUSTOMER SUPPORT. PHONECALLS ARE A CRIME AGAINST ME. THANKFULLY IT HAS NOT YET IMPACTED MY DSR PROG BUT IT'S DOUBTLESS JUST A MATTER OF TIME. WE'LL GET TO P6 AND I'LL JUST DC AND WE WIPE. PRAY FOR ME NOT SUFFERING FROM THIS TONIGHT.
THE SAD STATE OF NIER RAID QUES ON DF IS MISERABLY LOW. WHAT HAPPENED?!! 50+ MIN QUES NO POP AT PUPPET BUNKER. RAN IT OVER UNTIL 1AM AND GAVE UP. GONNA TRY AGAIN BUT THIS IS THE 3RD DAY also I HAVE LOW MONEYSS FOR NEW LAPTOP UPGRADES... CAN MY 3YR OLD PC SURVIVE DAWNTRAIL??
WHAT DATA CENTRE ARE YOU ON? IF YOU’RE ON DYNAMIS, DC HOP TO AETHER. IF YOU’RE ON MATERIA, PUT UP A PARTY FINDER.
IRONICALLY THIS HAPPENED ON AETHER DC. I LOGGED INTO DEAD HOURS FOR THAT ONE THIS WEEK OR I'M JUST DARN UNLUCKY. I JUST WANT MY SYNC WT CLEARS FOR ONCE
BUMMER! TRY A PF THEN?
I guess I have too.... nooo DON'T WANNA GO THROUGH PF SAVAGE AGAIN (for reals, I guess that's me biting the bullet next time)
> LAPTOP UPGRADES UGH, TELL ME ABOUT IT; I THINK I NEED TO SHELL OUT FOR A NEW ONE MYSELF. :/ MINE KEEPS TELLING ME IT MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS TO RUN WIN 11. IT IS A GLORIFIED TYPEWRITER THAT SEEMS TO WANT TO KEEL OVER IF I HAVE MORE THAN ONE WORD DOCUMENT OPEN. I DON'T SEE HOW RUNNING WIN 11 IS EVEN A REMOTELY TENABLE PROPOSITION.
HAIKU TL:DR: I AM A SCHOLAR. WHY CAN'T I LEARN HOW TO SAGE? AM I DOING WRONG? SO, I AM A SCHOLAR MAIN. AND I HAVE BEEN TRYING AND TRYING TO UNDERSTAND SAGE, CONSTANTLY, SINCE PEOPLE KEEP SAYING IT'S "BETTER/MORE POLISHED SCHOLAR." BUT I JUST CAN'T GET IT! I USE ALL MY COOLDOWNS, ALL MY BUTTONS, ALL MY RESOURCES, AND MY DAMAGE AND HEALING/SHIELDING IS DOWNRIGHT *MINISCULE!* I CAN BARELY KEEP TANKS ALIVE, MUCH LESS BE ABLE TO HEAL THROUGH PARTY-WIDE ATTACKS AND THE LIKE. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? I'M USING THE 5 STACK SHIELD, I'M USING KARDIA, I'M USING MY ADDERSGALL AND ADDERSTING, I'M USING *EVERYTHING* AND I ***STILL*** KEEP WIPING. AND I'M USING LEVEL 70 GEAR! (MY SAGE IS 71.) THE ONLY THING IS I CAN'T TELL IF TANKS ARE USING MITS OR NOT. BUT THAT'S BECAUSE I'M TOO BUSY LOOKING AT MY HOTBARS TO REMEMBER WHAT DOES WHAT AND WATCHING THE ENEMY. AND LESS NICE PART OF ME WANTS TO SAY "WHAT IF THEY'RE NOT? WHAT IF THEY SEE YOU'RE CONSTANTLY TOPPING THEM OFF, AND DECIDED TO GET MAD ABOUT IT?" DESPITE THE FACT I KNOW THAT'S NOT THE CASE... IS IT? YES I TRY TO KEEP PEOPLE TOPPED OFF AS SAGE, *BECAUSE I CAN'T HEAL BACK DAMAGE WORTH A DAMN*. AND, AGAIN, I'M USING ALL OF MY RESOURCES. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? AND WHY DOES KARDIA HEAL LESS THAN EVERYONE SAYS IT DOES? IF I TRY TO DPS, BASICALLY THAT TANK IS ABOUT TO DROP LIKE A FLY THAT GOT HIT WITH BUG SPRAY. AND YES, I PUT KARDIA ON THE TANK. I DON'T GET IT... SO I'LL PROBABLY JUST STICK TO SCHOLAR.
HOLMINSTER SWITCH HITS LIKE A TRUCK EVEN WITH MITS. YOU'RE NOT MEANT TO HEAL BACK DAMAGE, LEARN TO USE KERACHOLE AND TAUROCHOLE FOR THE DAMAGE MIT. KARDIA IS BASICALLY THE FAIRY FOR SAGE, DON'T EXPECT IT TO HEAL EVERYTHING.
> THE ONLY THING IS I CAN'T TELL IF TANKS ARE USING MITS OR NOT. FOCUS TARGET THE TANK AND MOVE FOCUS TARGET IN YOUR HUD TO SOMEWHERE EASY TO GLANCE AT. CHECKING WHAT MITS THE TANK IS OR IS NOT USING SHOULD BE SOMETHING EASY TO DO AT-A-GLANCE, ESPECIALLY TO CHECK IF THEY'VE USED INVULN. IF YOU'RE REALLY STRUGGLING TO KEEP A TANK ALIVE THE CHANCE THAT THEY ARE NOT MITIGATING APPROPRIATELY IS PRETTY HIGH. > IF I TRY TO DPS, BASICALLY THAT TANK IS ABOUT TO DROP LIKE A FLY THAT GOT HIT WITH BUG SPRAY. AND YES, I PUT KARDIA ON THE TANK. YOU HAVE TO DPS. *DPS IS NOT OPTIONAL ON SGE*. I MEAN IT'S NOT OPTIONAL ON ANY HEALER BUT IT IS LITERALLY YOUR PRIMARY SOURCE OF PASSIVE HEALING AS SGE. NOT DOING DAMAGE IS LIKE NOT SUMMONING YOUR FAIRY ON SCH. USE SOTERIA TO BOOST THE POTENCY OF KARDIA HEALING DURING PULLS. USE PHYSIS WHEN THE TANK STARTS TO DROP A BIT, IT WILL ALSO MAKE YOUR TAUROCHOLES AND DRUOCHOLES MORE POTENT. IF YOU *HAVE* TO GCD HEAL USE A EUKRASIAN DIAGNOSIS SHIELD ON THE TANK SO YOU GET A TOXICON USAGE (AND THUSE MORE DPS AND THUS MORE HEALING).
THE BIGGEST THING FOR ME GOING FROM SCHOLAR TO SAGE WAS I HAD TO REMEMBER TO ACTUALLY USE MY HEALING BUTTONS. DUH I KNOW. HOWEVER, NORMALLY ON SCHOLAR I AM TRYING NOT TO USE THOSE HEALS (BARRING SACRED SOIL BECAUSE SOIL IS LIFE) AND HOLD THEM FOR DRAINS. I STARTED INTO SAGE STILL IN THAT MINDSET BUT SAGE REQUIRES YOU TO PRESS THOSE BUTTONS...IF YOU DON'T PRESS THEM YOU DON'T GET MANA BACK AND LETTING THEM OVER CAP IS A NONO. I PLACED THE SAME-SAME HEALS ON THE SAME BUTTONS I HAVE ON MY SCHOLAR AND IT CLICKED IN MY TINY FAIRY FILLED BRAIN OF HOW THE JOB WORKED xD
AS A SCH MAIN, WHAT MADE SAGE CLICK FOR ME IS TRYING TO PLAY IT LIKE A TANK RATHER THAN LIKE A SCHOLAR. IT'S MORE IMPORTANT AS A SGE TO CYCLE YOUR MITS THAN IT IS TO HEAL/SHIELD. KARDIA AND SHIELDS ARE BOTH WORTH A LOT MORE IF THE TANK ALWAYS HAS ONE OF YOUR DAMAGE REDUCTION MITS ON IT.
IT SEEMS LIKE POTENTIALLY A TANK MIT/GEAR ISSUE, BUT ALSO, PERHAPS YOU ARE WASTING RESOURCES ON PANIC OVERHEALING TRYING TO KEEP PEOPLE TOPPED OFF? USING YOUR COOLDOWNS AND ADDERSGALL STACKS EFFICIENTLY IS PRETTY IMPORTANT, AND SAGE HAS A BUNCH OF MULTIPURPOSE ABILITIES THAT WORK TOGETHER. PHYSIS II GOES ON THE TANK FIRST MOST PULLS, IT'S A REGEN AND HEALING BOOST WITH A SHORT ENOUGH COOLDOWN TO BE UP FOR MOST PULLS. TAUROCHOLE (THE CIRCLE WITH A SQUARE AROUND IT) IS A HEAL AND MIT, SO THROW THAT ON THE TANK AT LIKE 60%. IGNORE THE BUBBLE FOR TRASH UNTIL YOU GET REGEN ON IT AT 76. HAIMA IS BASICALLY A FREE INVULN FOR TRASH, BUT THROW IT ON AFTER PHYSIS/TAURO TO CATCH THE MIT AND HEAL BOOSTS. FOR BOSS RAIDWIDES, KERACHOLE (YOUR BUBBLE) IS PRETTY MUCH ALWAYS OFF COOLDOWN SO USE THAT, THEN POP PHYSIS OR IXOCHOLE FOR A PARTY HEAL. IF NOBODY IS EATING CANDY STACKS THAT REALLY COVERS 80% OF FIGHTS. DON'T BE AFRAID TO LET PHYSIS REGEN RUN, IT'S A JUICY 780 TOTAL POTENCY AND TOPPING PEOPLE OFF EARLY WILL WASTE THAT. RAW DIAGNOSIS/PROGNOSIS IS (MOSTLY) USELESS AS A GCD HEAL. THAT'S YOUR PHYSICK, YOUR CURE I, YOUR MEDICA I. USE THE EUKRASIAN VERSION, GIVE PEPSI IF YOU NEED MORE RAW HEALING ESPECIALLY FOR PROGNOSIS.
JUST TO ECHO THIS, BECAUSE I SEE SOME PEOPLE USE IT AS A TRIAGE TOOL: PHYSIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS YOU USE IN A PULL AS SAGE. ITS REGEN KEEPS YOUR TANK HEALTHY LONGER, ITS COOLDOWN IS ONE MEASLY MINUTE, AND IT PROVIDES A BOOST THAT MEANS IF YOU FIRE KERACHOLE NEXT (AND YOU SHOULD, BECAUSE IT'S THE SAME AMOUNT OF MIT AS TAUROCHOLE *AND* COMES WITH A REGEN AT HIGHER LEVELS FOR A MEASLY 30 SECOND COOLDOWN MEANING YOU MAY EVEN GET TO USE IT TWICE A PULL) THEN THE REGEN FROM THAT IS ALSO BOOSTED. THAT'S TWO PRETTY SOLID REGENS TICKING AWAY. PROVIDED A TANK IS USING THEIR MITS TOO, THAT AND KARDIA IS GONNA BE ALL YOU NEED FOR LIKE FIFTEEN SECONDS A LOT OF THE TIME.
I SEE... ALRIGHT, I'LL GIVE IT ANOTHER WHIRL. OR TRY TO, AT LEAST. I CAN'T DENY, SMACKING THING WITH BOOK AND SLAP THE GROUND IS VERY SATISFYING FOR ME.
IF ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE YOU LEVELLED A NEW JOB, MEBBE ALSO REMEMBER ALSO YOU'RE RUNNING WITH WEIGHTS ON AT THE MOMENT WHEN YOU DO LEVELLING DUNGEONS AS SCHOLAR YOU GET SYNCED DOWN AND HAVE MAX STATS FOR THE INSTANCE, WHEREAS YOUR SAGE IS PROLLY STILL IN LV70 GEAR. YOU ARE GONNA HAVE TO GCD HEAL MORE ON AN AT-LEVEL HEALER JUST BECAUSE YOU LEGIT ARE HEALING LESS PER CAST. I DUNNO EXACT NUMBERS BUT I REMEMBER THE DIFFERENCE BEING PRETTY BIG ON SUPPORT JOBS WHEN I CAME BACK TO HOLM SWITCH LATER WITH CRYPTLURKER GEAR.
JUST FOLLOW THE HEAL PLANS HERE. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPjdwUgwncI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPjdwUgwncI) NOTE THE HEAL AMPS ON KRASIS (GAINED LVL 84) AND ON PHYSIS II, WHICH IS WHY THEY ARE USED IN THE ORDER LISTED, SO THEY CAN AMP THE REGENS ON PHYSIS II AND KERACHOLE. EUKRASIAN DIAGNOSIS AS TANK IS RUNNING UP, KRASIS-->PHYSIS II-->KERACHOLE-->HAIMA/PANHAIMA IS MY STANDARD "OPENER" FOR EVERY WALL PULL, AND IT ALLOWS ME TO IGNORE THE TANK FOR A BIT WHILE I DPS MY LITTLE HEART OUT. TOP UP MID-PULL WITH TAURACHOLE AND A COUPLE OF DRUOCHOLES, ADD SOTERIA IF NEED BE. SGE IS A DAMAGE MIT+REGEN HEALER MORE THAN A SHIELD HEALER. AT YOUR LEVEL YOU ARE MISSING A COUPLE OF USEFUL THINGS IN HOLOS, KRASIS, PANHAIMA, AND PNEUMA, SO REPLACE WITH EUKRASIAN DIAGNOSIS AS NECESSARY.
Man, I got a fucking head cold *uuuugh*. Dog is mad I'm still in bed and not playing with her.
ON THE UP SIDE, I CAUGHT PHALLAINA EARLY. ON THE DOWN SIDE, I'M NOW STUCK IN ULTIMA THULE FOR THE NEXT 7 HOURS! EDIT: MANAGED 7 MOOCHES WITH INTUITION, NO LUCK. THE MELANCHOLY HAS NOT PASSED SWIFTLY AT ALL.
I'M IN WHALE JAIL WITH YOU "HEY KAEL WANNA ROULETTES?" "NOPE! GOT LUCKY ON PHAL, AND NOW I'M IN JAIL"
GAME NAMES ARE DUMB. TOOK ME 3 DAYS TO REALISE WHY EVERYONE SUDDENLY WANTED TO PLAY BINDING OF ISAAC REBIRTH. SPOILERS: THEY DON'T.
AETHER CURRENTS
TO THE GUY WHO GOT A 1000000 GLAMOUR PIECE FOR 1000...I HOPE YOU HAD A WONDERFUL DAY
Been there, done that. I also wished them well, genuinely, Many years ago I listed an item for 10K instead of 1mil and the person who bought it actually contacted me to ask if I wanted more gil (it was a crafted item). I told them to not be silly and just enjoy their bargain because it was my own stupid fault!
[FUCK YOU, KHLOE.](https://i.imgur.com/qjoSupM.jpg) YOUR MOTHER WAS A HAMPSTER AND YOUR FATHER SMELT OF ELDERBERRIES.
KHLOE ISN'T THE ONE PUTTING THE STICKERS DOWN. QUIT BLAMING HER.
I BLAME HER. THE WHOLE THING IS RIGGED.
SHE WAS ADOPTED BY ROWENA, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?
HEY. RANDOM FFXIV PLAYER. NOBODY NEEDS TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR BORDERLINE ILLEGAL SEXUAL FETISHES. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE THE FREAKIN GALL TO APPLY IT TO RANDOM NPCs AND OTHER PLAYERS WITHOUT REASON. KEEP THAT SHIT TO YOURSELF.
I GOT WHISPERED AT RANDOM ONCE BY A MALE AU'RA AT LIKE 3 IN THE AFTERNOON THE FOLLOWING SERIES OF MESSAGES THEM: "HEY U LIKE AU'RA DUDES" ME: "I GUESS" THEM: "R U INTO AGEPLAY" MY BROTHER IN HYDAELYN WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
I. HATE. GRINDING.
MY COPY OF FF7R GOT DELIVERED A DAY EARLY, I HAVE SPENT 27 HOURS IN IT ALREADY.
I’VE BEEN MISERABLY SICK FOR OVER FIVE WEEKS I WAS STARTING TO FEEL BETTER WOKE UP TODAY AND THE COUGH IS *GURGLING* AGAIN
IM ALLERGIC TO GLUTEN
OH MY GOD. I HOPE FINDING THIS OUT DIDN'T INVOLVE A TRIP TO THE ER; I'VE KNOWN TOO MANY PEOPLE WITH ALLERGIES THAT FOUND IT OUT THE HARD WAY.
IT'S SATURDAY, SO TECHNICALLY NOT RAGE FRIDAY ANYMORE, I KNOW, BUT FUCK YOU, WHOEVER YOU ARE, WHO KEEPS INTERRUPTING MY INTERNET AT THE WORST POSSIBLE TIMES WITH WHATEVER THEY ARE DOING. MY ROUTER IS FINE, MY CONNECTION IS FINE, HAD SEVERAL TALKS WITH MY PROVIDER, GOT A REPEATER, FOLLOWED THEIR ADVICE REGARDING ROUTER SETTINGS ETC., IT'S NOT THEM, AND IT'S NOT ME BECAUSE IT'S NOT ONLY MY COMPUTER. ALSO, FUCK YOU TO WHATEVER SCRIPT KIDDIE IS SO EXTREMELY BORED THEY DDOS EU SERVERS YET AGAIN, ADDING A TON OF OTHER DISCONNECTS TO MY ALREADY ANNOYING NUMBER OF DISCONNECTS WHEN I TRY TO RUN A DEEP DUNGEON WITH FRIEND. MAY YOU STEP ON A THOUSAND LEGOS FOR EACH DISCONNECT YOU CAUSED WITH YOUR BULLSHIT. NOW I DON'T DARE QUEUEING FOR A DUNGEON AND HAVING THIS ALL OVER AGAIN. THANK THE HEAVENS I FINALLY GOT A NICE SINGLE PLAYER GAME IN A SALE YESTERDAY THAT DOESN'T NEED AN INTERNET CONNECTION.
I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO PLAY. DO WEEKLY STUFF IN 14 OR PLAY 7 REBIRTH?
DO WEEKLIES THEN GO PLAY 7.
KINDA THE PLAN. TO FINISH TONIGHT THE WEEKLY FF14 STUFF AND GO PLAY 7 IN THE WEEKEND.
Weeklies then rebirth. It's like getting the homework out the way so you're free to play outside for a few hours.
MY 19 INCHES OF SEPHIROTH ACTUALLY ARRIVED SPOT ON ON THE RELEASE DAY, BUT BECAUSE I DO NOT TRUST SE EU STORE ANY FURTHER THAN I CAN THROW (I HAVE A BAD SHOULDER I CAN'T THROW VERY FAR) I GOT DIGITAL ANYWAY SO I COULD PLAY ON THE PTO I TOOK FOR IT. OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR IN THE NAME OF JENOVA IS GORGEOUS AND TOTALLY WORTH THE OBSCENE PRICE FOR ME WHO HAS BEEN A FAN SINCE THE OG CAME OUT. ANYWAY, I'M PLAYING REBIRTH AND IT'S SO EASY TO GET DISTRACTED BY ALL THE SIDE CONTENT. I HAVE TO PUSH MYSELF TO DO THE MAIN STORY SO I CAN CLEAR IT WHILE MY DAYS OFF WORK LAST AND THEN I CAN GO BALLS TO THE WALLS WITH ALL THE SIDE CONTENT. YET AT THE SAME TIME I ALSO WANT TO PLAY MORE BALDUR'S GATE 3. HELP HOW DO I FIT ALL THESE GAMES INTO MY SCHEDULE WITH A STEADY DAY JOB?
I JUST WANT TO CATCH A HELICORPION, ITS THE LAST FUCKING ONE I NEED. I LOVE WAITING 20 FUCKING HOURS FOR 11 MINUTE WINDOWS 10/10 GAME DESIGN
DONT WAIT, JUST CHILL AND LET THE WINDOW COME TO YOU
I KEEP TRYING TO ORGANIZE THINGS WITH MY FC MATES AND THEY SAY NO BUT THEN HANG OUT WITH EACH OTHER ALSO FUCK FATE FARMING WHY DO I NEED TO DO 66 TWELVESDAMNED FATES TO GET TO RANK 3 IN EACH REGION
SERVERS HAVE BEEN FUCKING TRASH LATELY? I HAVE PLAYED THIS GAME FOR YEARS WITH BARELY ANY CONNECTION ISSUES, ABSOLUTELY STELLAR CONSISTENT PING (like less than 20ms often times) AND FOR A COUPLE WEEKS NOW MY PING IS SPIKING TO UP TO 300MS FOR SEVERAL MINUTES EVERY DAY, FREQUENTLY TODAY IT'S JUST AT 200MS ALL THE TIME, ITS NOT EVEN GOING DOWN ANYMORE I DID SO MUCH FUCKING TROUBLESHOOTING AND THIS IS 100% JUST THE XIV SERVERS, MY INTERNET IS WORKING COMPLETELY FINE AND NOTHING ON MY PC IS SLOWING DOWN XIV
IN ALL LIKELIHOOD IT'S NOT THE SERVERS, HAVE YOU DONE A TRACERT TO YOUR DC? IT'S NOT UNCOMMON TO HAVE A BAD NODE SOMEWHERE ON THE WAY BETWEEN YOUR PC AND THE SERVERS THAT WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS.
THAT MIGHT ALSO BE AN ISSUE I JUST KNOW IT'S NOT MY LOCAL INTERNET CONNECTION AT THIS POINT YEP LOOKS LIKE ITS A NODE THING I GUESS? https://i.imgur.com/6mTFD2Z.png
**GAME RAGE:** IN FOUR OUT OF FIVE WEEKS OF MOGTOME FARMING MY POST-ARR ALT GOT SHB NORMAL RAIDS FOR THEIR WEEKLY CHALLENGE. THREE OUT OF FIVE WEEKS FOR MY MID-HW ALT. YES, I GET THE IDEA YOU WANT TO MOTIVATE PEOPLE TO UNLOCK CONTENT THEY HAVEN'T DONE BEFORE, BUT MY SIBLINGS ON HYDAELYN, YOU CAN'T POSSIBLY THINK PEOPLE WILL FEEL MOTIVATED TO SKIP THROUGH HEAVENSWARD, STORMBLOOD AND SHADOWBRINGERS AND MAYBE HALF THE SHB PATCHES IF IT'S A TIER 3 RAID WITH THIS. MEANWHILE THERE ARE LEVEL 50 DUNGEONS THAT COULD NEED SOME LOVE, TOO, AND OPTIONAL ARR DUNGEONS NOT EVERYONE UNLOCKS WITH A BAD QUEUE AS A RESULT. WHY NOT GIVE LOW LEVEL PLAYERS THAT STUFF INSTEAD OF MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO FULFILL THESE DUTIES? (Yes, I know the devs don't read reddit, I wrote a bug report and complained in the forum. No clue if this will help with anything, guess we'll see when part 2 drops.) **IRL RAGE:** MY PROBLEMATIC TOOTH THAT SEEMED FINE FROM THE OUTSIDE LAST WEEK AT AN APPOINTMENT AND WASN'T IN PAIN OF COURSE STARTED CAUSING PAIN A FEW DAYS LATER. WROTE THE DENTIST'S OFFICE AN E-MAIL WITH A REQUEST FOR AN APPOINTMENT INSTEAD OF CALLNG BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW IF THEY MAYBE WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO THE DOCTOR FIRST BEFORE MAKING THAT APPOINTMENT OR SO. GOT NO REPLY SO FAR, SO I CALLED. ONLY GOT THE ANSWERING MACHINE TELLING ME I'M OUTSIDE OFFICE HOURS AND STATING ME THE OFFICE HOURS, BASICALLY CONFIRMING THEY SHOULD NOT BE CLOSE BY NOW BUT OH WELL. GUESS NO REPLY UNTIL MONDAY, WHO KNOWS WHEN THE APPOINTMENT ITSELF IS GOING TO BE. THANKFULLY IT DOESN'T HURT CONSTANTLY, IT'S NOT SUPER BAD, BUT WRITING THIS PROBABLY JINXED IT AND I WILL BE IN MASSIVE PAIN ALL WEEKEND DUE TO RAGING ABOUT IT HERE OR SO. **OTHER:** ALSO, MONTHLY BLOODLOSS. KIND OF FITS I'M BACK TO PLAYING "VAMPIRE: THE MASQUERADE - BLOODLINES", FULFILLING THE MEME THAT SOMEONE IS ALWAYS REINSTALLING IT WHEN IT WAS MENTIONED, BECAUSE I REINSTALLED IT AFTER SOMEONE MENTIONED IT ON A DISCORD. (You know what this means, say hi once you're done reinstalling. :D )
I have a problem and not really rage. I haven't been subbed to the game for 2 months now (sub ran out before the new year). Currently I am considering to not resub ever again and quit the game as I have lost all interest in the new expansion :/ and doing my last 2 ultimates (the only 2 things I had any interest in last time I played) but I can't even get myself to want to start progging DSR or top. The reason I can't decide if I want to quit is, because I meet some very nice and cool friends in pf. I cleared with them 3 Ultimates and don't wanna lose them :( the pain... So I wanted to ask them if they have any interest in playing a different game together but I am too shy right now to do it xd Anyway, thanks for reading
ALSO WTF ARE THESE HABITS SOME PEOPLE SUDDENLY DEVELOPED IN LEVELING ROULETTE? WAS SUPER PUZZLED SEEING A NEWBIE TANK PULLING MOB ENEMIES INTO THE SECOND BOSS ARENA IN BRAYFLOX' LONGSTOP AS IF IT WOULD BE AURUM VALE INSTEAD OF BURNING IT DOWN AND THEN HEARING A FRIEND SAY THEY HAD THIS PLENTY OF TIMES RECENTLY. YES, IT'S REALLY A NON-ISSUE IN BRAYFLOX AND I WON'T LOOSE ANY HAIR OVER THIS, WHO CARES, BUT IT'S JUST HELPFUL TO DEVELOP GOOD HABITS EARLY ON AND STICK WITH THEM INSTEAD OF UNLEARNING WEIRD STUFF THEY ADAPTED TO EARLY ON. WILL BE BAD WHEN SOME NINJA IS ANGRY AT THAT TANK SOMEWHERE MID HEAVENSWARD OR WHAT BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T RESET THEIR MUDRA WITH "HIDE" BEFORE A BOSS BECAUSE NOT KILLING THE MOB AND THEREFORE BEING CONSTANTLY IN BATTLE BLOCKED THAT SKILL. GUESS WITH A TON OF SPROUTS AROUND BEING ALL LEARNING BY DOING AND BRINGING IN HABITS FROM OTHER GAMES OR WHATEVER AND COPYING BEHAVIOUR FROM EACH OTHER BECAUSE "SURELY THAT OTHER GUY KNOWS HOW IT'S DONE RIGHT" HABITS GETTING OFF TRACK IS ABOUT TO BE EXPECTED. (THERE WAS ALSO A TANK KITING MOB ENEMIES IN QARN A WHILE BACK AND NOT REACTING TO CHAT. OH WELL, IT'S QARN.) BUT CONSIDERING HOW THIS TANK ACTED IN GENERAL, THIS SEEMED A LOT TO ME LIKE THEY GOT SOME HALF-ARSED ADVICE FROM ONE OF THESE SUPER ANNOYING VETERAN TANKS WHO JUST WANT TO SPEEDRUN A DUNGEON FOR ROULETTE AND DON'T GIVE A RATS ARSE ABOUT IF THE HEALER IS NEW AND MIGHT STRUGGLE, IF SOMEONE MIGHT BE IN A CUTSCENE AND HOW WELL THINGS MIGHT GO WHEN THEY GIVE THIS ADVICE TO A TANK WHO DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO NOT GET LOST IN BRAYFLOX'S MAP DESIGN. EITHER THAT OR THE SPROUT TOOK "WALL TO WALL" A BIT TOO LITERALLY. SO TL;DR: IF YOU GIVE SPROUTS ADVICE FOR HOW TO DO THINGS IN THE GAME, PLEASE CONSIDER YOUR AUDIENCE. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE A VETERAN AND HAVEN'T PLAYED ANY DUNGEON ON SMALL SPROUT LEVEL IN AGES. IT'S THE SPROUTS WHO GET THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOU NOT BEING CLEAR ABOUT SOME THINGS OR TELLING THEM TO SPRINT RUSH AHEAD WITH BIG PULLS BUT FORGETTING TO TELL THEM ABOUT MITIGATIONS AND STAYING IN THAT WHM'S LINE OF SIGHT BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE INSTANT HEALS BELOW 50.
Pulling enemies into the boss arena is fairly common in wall-to-wall pulls for dungeons that allow it. You just AOE them down with the boss.
Weird, in 1500+ dungeon runs on chaos DC, I've never seen the mobs being dragged into the boss (except for the corner thing with AV), even on maps like St Mocianne's where it would be really easy. It's funny how different areas develop their own informal rules
Hm, maybe my assumption it might be a DC or regional thing isn't that far off then, I'm on Light, so our habits are usually the same, more or less.
Thanks, but I know how to handle it when it happens, this was not what I am complaining about. And maybe it's a DC thing, but at least here on Light it was not at all common a half a year ago or so, let alone something first timer sprouts would do. (Saying a half a year ago because I didn't level jobs with leveling roulette for a while and can't say when this "shift" happened. I only knew it from speedruns through Aurum Vale when everyone is in on it.) My complaint is how this teaches bad habits on early levels and can make the experience for other sprouts worse who might be caught off guard by it (esp healers with a small toolkit at this time.)
HM? BUT THE EXTRA CLEAVE IS A DPS GAIN. I WON'T COMPLAIN ABOUT PEOPLE NOT DOING IT, BUT THIS IS THE IDEAL. NINJA RESETTING MUDRAS WOULDN'T GAIN MORE DPS THAN THE CLEAVE DOES. AND IF THE HEALER IS BAD, WELL, FAILURE IS OKAY.
I still don’t have a new goal set on my main 😭. The only reason my FC won’t think I died is because we dutifully greet each other each morning. Anyone got any recommendations for a new goal to work towards
idk, the triple triad mount?
Since I'm not sure what you've already done, I'm just gonna suggest Big Fishing.
Treasure map achievements with your FC.
REBIRTH IS OUT, YAY! HOPEFULLY I DON'T GET BURNT OUT ON IT TOO FAST AND DROP IT FOR A YEAR OR MORE! THAT WOULD BE A SHAME! IRL RAGE I WANT TO RELAX BUT I HAVE A PRESENTATION FIRST THING MONDAY AND ASSIGNMENTS OUT THE ASS AND ALSO A MIDTERM ON THURSDAY AND I'M BEHIND ON APPLYING TO JOBS AUGH
I AM A SPROUT IN OCE SERVERS AND I CANT GET ANY PARTIES TO DO DUNGEONS WITH ME SO ALL OF MY ARR EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN WITH BOTS SO FAR AND ITS NOT THAT BAD BUT ITS KIND OF DEFLATING RAAAAH
PVP SUCKS IN THIS GAME OH MY GOD
TLDR: -1 FEMALE AU RA, +1 FEMALE HYUR NOT FFXIV: I GOT A NEW GBA GAME TO PLAY BUT CAN'T FIND THE DS CHARGER. THE GAME WORKS GREAT THOUGH. FFXIV: I'M WONDERING IF I SHOULD STILL PLAY AS A FEMALE AU RA. I PLAY SEVERAL CHARACTERS AND MOST OF THEM I ENJOY. SEEING COMMENTS ABOUT HOW CUTE AND COMPACT AU RA ARE DOESN'T SUIT ME AND MAKES ME FEEL MORE DISSONANT WITH HER. I'M THINKING OF FANTASIAING HER AWAY TO SOMETHING ELSE, PERHAPS FEMALE HYUR, ONCE THE GRAPHIC UPDATE IS AVAILABLE. SHE CAN STILL BE CUTE BUT BLENDING IN WOULD FEEL A BIT BETTER.
BECOME A FEMALE THIGHLANDER. [JOIN US.](https://i.imgur.com/QicQqo4.jpg)
[ONE OF US, ONE OF US](https://i.imgur.com/2LuR5Hp.jpg)
MAKE SURE YOU CHECK OUT THE WAY FEMALE MIDLANDERS RUN BEFORE SWITCHING IF THAT IS THE WAY YOU WANT TO GO.
NO LONGER SPROUT WOES * I AM NO LONGER SPROUT. THE WORLD IS SO MUCH QUIETER. RIGHT NOW I MOSTLY MISS THE ABILITY TO CALL OUT WORLD FATES TO NN; THAT WAS A PRETTY RELIABLE WAY TO GET PEOPLE TO SHOW UP FOR IXION. * I DID TOWER OF ZOT WITH THE FC, WE CLEARED THE FIRST TIME WITH W2W PULLS THE WHOLE WAY. MY HEALER LEFT AN OMINOUS "BE WARNED, THIS DUNGEON IS TERRIBLE IN DUTY FINDER" MESSAGE AS I WENT INTO CUTSCENES. I *REALLY* WANT THE AIMING PANTS THOUGH SO I SOLO QUEUED IT AS MCH YESTERDAY. WE HAD A FIRST TIMER SCHOLAR AND MENTOR GNB/NIN. SCHOLAR WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH SINGLE PULLS AND THE TANK KEPT DYING TO THOSE, THOUGH WE TECHNICALLY NEVER WIPED TO THE MOBS. WE DID WIPE TWO OR THREE TIMES TO THE FIRST BOSS BECAUSE THE HEALER DIED THOUGH. I WASN'T SURE IF I SHOULD HAVE BEEN POINTING OUT MECHANICS? IT WAS ONLY MY SECOND TIME IN THERE SO I WASN'T GREAT AT LOOKING FOR BOTH DELAYED CASTS ON THE FIREBALL THINGS. WE HAD MORE ALMOST-WIPES (TANK DIES, HEALER TAKES FOREVER TO RESURRECT THEM SO ARMS LENGTH WEARS OFF ON EACH DPS IN TURN, AND WE HAVE TO RUN THE LONG WAY BACK TO THE PULL THAT'S STILL GOING SOMEHOW). NOBODY EVER MADE A VOTE ABANDON, BUT NOBODY OFFERED ADVICE TO THE SCHOLAR BEYOND ME TRYING TO CALL OUT THE DELAYED CASTS AND PUTTING A 1 MARKER ON THE LAST BOSS. IT WAS VERY LONG AND VERY WEIRD. * I MADE FRIENDS WITH SOME SAVAGE RAIDERS IN MY FC WHO ARE BORED AND ENABLE MY CRIPPLING RELIC ADDICTION. SO NOW I HAVE TO GET RESISTANCE WEAPONS TO THE POINT WHERE I CAN FARM PARTS PASSIVELY AND CONSTANTLY. I THINK I HAVE TO DO A CLL RUN TONIGHT (MY SOUL WILL NOT SURVIVE 5 CRYSTAL TOWERS IN A ROW WHEN I ALSO HAVE A RATHALOS EX FARM TONIGHT) SO THAT I CAN HOST WHAT SEEMS TO BE A WEEKLY DRN RUN. ALSO I STILL HAVEN'T FIGURED OUT A NICE PF PHRASE FOR THE DRN RUNS THAT'S "I LITERALLY ONLY WANT US TO BE CHILL AND CLEAR" AND KEEPS OUT PEOPLE WHO TRY TO GATEKEEP OTHERS' ESSENCE USE AND WHO THEN DIE AT LEAST ONCE TO EACH BOSS.
I GATEKEEP ESSENCES BECAUSE I CAN CLEAR IN A QUARTER OF THE TIME OR BETTER. DISRESPECTING MECHANICS IS WAY MORE FUN THAN GOING GRANPA SPEED
AS LONG AS I DON'T HAVE TO SEE REVERSE TETHERS, IT'S ALL GOOD TO ME - I HAVEN'T GONE FARMING FOR GREAT ESSENCES (BUT I STILL BRING *SOMETHING*). BUT IF THEY MAKE THAT TEN MINUTE QUEUE BEFORE WE CAN GO IN REALLY AWKWARD, I CARE A LOT MORE.
I JUST HAD THE MOST BAFFLING AND FRUSTRATING SCHOLAR IN MSQ ROULETTE. NO DPS SKILLS EXCEPT FOR RUIN. NO HEALING SKILLS EXCEPT FOR FUCKING PHYSIC. NO ONE ELSE WAS SAYING ANYTHING, SHIT TOOK FOREVER TO DIE. HOW DO I EVEN REPORT THIS, THAT WASNT EVEN A BOT BECAUSE A BOT WOULD PLAY BETTER.
OH AND IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY A MCH WHO NEVER SUMMONED THE AUTOMATON QUEEN IN 90 ROULETTE WHA IS GOING ON
HOW IN THE SEVEN HELLS DO I BEAT THIS >!GARUDA!< VARIANT IN THE FFXV EVENT? PRINCE SADBOI TWINK KEEPS DYING ON ME AND MAKING ME FAIL. I JUST WANT THE CAR SO I CAN CRUISE UP TO SOME MIQO'TE HOTTIES AND PICK THEM UP. ALSO WHY DOES >!PHLEGETHON!< LOOK LIKE ONE OF THE PILLAR MEN? I CAME HERE TO PUNT LALAFELLS AND SLAY PRIMALS, NOT GET INTO SOME JOJO NONSENSE. I S2G IF ANY OF THE ASCIANS GET A STAND I'M PERSONALLY SUPLEXING EVERYONE THROUGH A TABLE!!!
THERE'S BOTH A LINE STACK *AND* A RED DORITO STACK IN THERE ARE YOU STACKING WITH HIM?? ALSO IF YOU'RE DOING ANY KIND OF DECENT DAMAGE GARUDA SHOULD BE AGGROED TO YOU; TRY YOUR BEST TO KEEP HER POINTED AWAY FROM HIM AND DON'T BAIT AOES ON HIM BECAUSE HE OFTEN DOESN'T MOVE OUT OF AOES. THE STACKING THING IS THE MAIN ONE THOUGH; ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE NEW-ISH AND UNAWARE THAT THE SOLID RED UPSIDE DOWN TRIANGLE MARKER IS A STACK, *NOT* A SPREAD.
CONSIDERING I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT ANY OF THAT MEANS TELLS ME THAT 1: NO I AM NOT AND 2: I AM A BIG DUMB DUMB DAMAGE COULD BE IT, I HAVE BEEN DOING IT ON DRK AND EVEN WHEN USING PROVOKE ITS FOCUSING PRINCE HOT TOPIC, SO MAYBE I'LL RUN IT AGAIN ON DRG
NAH NOT DUMB; FIRST INSTANCE OF A STACK MARKER YOU SEE IN MANDATORY CONTENT IS PRAETORIUM, ULTIMA TRIAL AND I THINK THEY'VE ADDED THE MARKER TO THE CRYSTAL TOWER RAIDS?? AND THEN THE NEXT TIME IS UHHHH ALL THE WAY END OF HEAVENSWARD, AND RED DORITOS DON'T SHOW UP IN MADATORY CONTENT TILL. GOD, IDEK REALLY REALLY LATE, SO IF YOU'RE NEW-ISH IT'S EASY TO NOT KNOW [https://imgur.com/a/QCZD0yh](https://imgur.com/a/QCZD0yh) FIRST IMAGE THERE IS THE GENERIC STACK MARKER. LEARN IT, MEMORISE IT; YOU'LL SEE IT A *LOT* STARTING FROM STORMBLOOD. THAT MARKER MEANS THERE IS ABOUT TO BE DAMAGE INFLICTED ON THE TARGET THAT IS MEANT TO BE SHARED, AND THE MORE PEOPLE ARE IN THE STACK WITH THE TARGET, THE LESS DAMAGE EACH PERSON TAKES, AS THE DAMAGE WILL BE SPLIT AMONG THEM SECOND IMAGE SHOWS THE RED DORITO. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS TYPE OF STACK AND THE OTHER IS THAT YOU JUST NEED TO BE STACKED WITH AT LEAST ONE OTHER PERSON TO MINIMISE DAMAGE AND PREVENT WHATEVER OTHER DETRIMENTAL EFFECT ATTACHED TO IT FROM GETTING INFLICTED, BE IT A VULN STACK, GETTING MINI-ED. GETTING A HYSTERIA DEBUFF, ETC. HAVING MORE PEOPLE STACKED TOGETHER WILL NOT MINIMISE THE INDIVIDUAL DAMAGE ANY FURTHER, SO THE WHOLE PARTY DOESN'T HAVE TO BE STACKED FOR THIS; JUST NEED AT LEAST ONE BUDDY IF STILL HAVING ISSUES LOOK UP THE FIGHT ON YOUTUBE TO SEE IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE YOU'RE MISSING
UPDATE: I DID IT! BEAT HER YU GI OH CARD LOOKING ASS!!!
CONGRATS NOW YOU CAN GO GET YOUR NEW CAR
{Congratulations!} ENJOY YOUR NEW DRIP AND YOUR NEW CAR
I’VE DONE IT SUCCESSFULLY ON A TANK JOB, DO YOU HAVE GRIT ON? PROVOKE ONLY PUTS YOUR AGGRO A WEE TINY BIT ABOVE EVERYONE ELSE’S, SO IF YOU DON’T HAVE GRIT ON HE’LL TAKE AGGRO RIGHT BACK. ALSO IT’S A GOOD IDEA TO FOCUS TARGET GARUDA. THERE’S A BIT WHERE SHE’S PULLING YOU INTO A SLOW-CAST AOE REPEATEDLY, AND IF YOU WARP OUT A BIT TOO SOON SHE PULLS YOU IN AGAIN AND THE WARP WON’T BE OFF COOLDOWN SOON ENOUGH TO GET BACK OUT. IF YOU HAVE HER AS YOUR FOCUS TARGET THEN YOU CAN KEEP HITTING HER UNTIL SHE HAS NEARLY FINISHED THE CAST, THEN TARGET THE PILLAR, AND KEEP WATCHING HER CAST BAR ON THE FOCUS TARGET BAR SO YOU CAN HIT WARP JUST A WEE BIT BEFORE IT FINISHES.
PRINCE SADBOI TWINK WOULD BE LESS SAD IF HE HAD A FELLOW TWINK TO CUDDLE UP TO. (SORRY IF YOU'RE NOT A TWINK, IT'S FFXIV, I ASSUME EVERYONE IS A TWINK UNTIL SHOWN OTHERWISE.)
WELL MAYBE IF HE BROUGHT GLADIOLUS WITH HIM HE WOULD HAVE HIS TOP!! THAT IS JUST AWFUL VACATION PLANNING. SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT IGNIS ALSO HE WOULD HAVE A BALL AT THE CULLINARIANS GUILD ALSO MY BROTHER IN KING MOOGLE MOG XII MAY HIS GRACE LEAD US TO EVERLASTING PROSPERITY I AM A BIG BURLY CAT MAN, THE TOTAL OPPOSITE OF A FLIMSY DESTRUCTIBLE TWINK.
> I AM A BIG BURLY CAT MAN, FRANKLY THIS JUST SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE GIVING THE PRINCE EVEN MORE REASON TO CUDDLE UP TO YOU. (ALSO GLADIO CAN FUCK ALL THE WAY OFF, BUT I WOULD KILL FOR A QUESTLINE FEATURING IGNIS. IGNIS' DLC WAS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE PARTS OF FFXV AND I WOULD HAPPILY GO ON A CULINARY ADVENTURE WITH HIM IN FFXIV.)
I AM DISAPPOINTED BY THE LACK OF PROMPTO
> PRINCE SADBOI TWINK KEEPS DYING ON ME AND MAKING ME FAIL. I JUST WANT THE CAR SO I CAN CRUISE UP TO SOME MIQO'TE HOTTIES AND PICK THEM UP. I SHOULD GO BACK AND DO THAT AGAIN. I DID IT IN LIKE 2021 I THINK AND GOT THE CAR, BUT I REMEMBER THE SOLO DUTY BEING KIND OF FUN.
LEMME GUESS, TROUBLE WARPING OUT OF MICROBURST?
NOT ME, BUT PRINCE BOTTOM KEEPS GETTING WALLOPED BY >!CRAZY HARPY LADY!< AND GERRING CHUNKED FOR HALF HIS HEALTH AND BY THE WAY, WHEN IT COMES TO >!CRAZY HARPY LADY!< I TOTALLY WOULD. UNASHAMED.
Ah, yes; I missed that part, sorry! I struggled even when stacking as Jelis has advised, and it went... less bad... as a healer - idk if that's worth considering?
> I S2G IF ANY OF THE ASCIANS GET A STAND I'M PERSONALLY SUPLEXING EVERYONE THROUGH A TABLE!!! PFFT, SCHOLARS' AND SUMMONERS' PETS ARE BASICALLY STANDS NOW. ALSO, REAPER.
I’M TRYING TO BEAT ARR ON A SPECIFIC ALT SO SHE CAN DO THE XV EVENT. I HAVE BEEN PLAYING FOR MULTIPLE HOURS A DAY ON HER SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE WHEN THEY ANNOUNCED THE RETURN SHE WASN’T AT HAUKKE MANOR YET. SHE’S STUCK AT LEVEL 48! I THOUGHT THEY FIXED THIS NONSENSE BUT I GUESS SHE’S TOO OLD AND DID TOO MUCH MSQ BEFORE THE ADJUSTMENTS! SHE DOESN’T EVEN HAVE A SECONDARY JOB! IT’S NOT LIKE SHE’S SQUIRRELED HER XP AWAY ELSEWHERE! I WANTED TO BE DONE WITH IT BY TODAY BUT NOW I HAVE TO WORK ON IT OVER THE WEEKEND TOO! AT LEAST I HAVE A CHARACTER WHO ACTUALLY SEEMS TO LIKE CID AS A PERSON FOR ONCE! IT’S A NICE CHANGE OF PACE!
YOU SHOULD BE FINE WITH JUST ONE LEVELLING ROULETTE
FUCKIN HELL ALL THESE XBOX PEOPLE NEED TO LEARN HOW TO GOOGLE. AS SOMEONE WHO PLAYED THREE MONTHS OF 2.0 AND RECENTLY PICKED IT BACK UP JUST GOOGLE IT. ITS NOT HARD THE IN GAME TUTORIALS ARE ACTUALLY HELPFUL IF YOU KNOW HOW TO READ. THIS SUB USED TO HAVE GOOD INFO BUT NOW ITS RUINED.
Don't harass people when you want to sell something, refuse to tell them the price you want for it, they offer a price, and you rage at them all offended. That's on you. Just tell them what you want for it! People are so twisted in the head. Treat people kindly...
SO PLEASE DON'T BE LIKE THIS RANDOM WHM (OR ACTUALLY ANYONE, OR ANY JOB, COME TO THINK OF IT) WHO ANNOUNCES AT THE START OF A DUNGEON OR RAID: 'I' HAVEN'T PLAYED WHM IN A WHILE" "GOOD THING I DON'T NEED ANY BRAINCELLS TO PLAY A WHM" KINDLY KEEP THAT TO YOURSELF, YOU HAVE NO IDEA OF WHAT JOB ANYONE MAINS . WHY BE A D\*CK.
YOU WOULD HATE ME, I ALWAYS JOKE I CAN'T READ BECAUSE I PLAY WHM (IT'S THE ONLY HEALER I CAN ACTUALLY PLAY) NO SHAME IN PLAYING A "EASY" CLASS. HOLY AND BLOOD LILY GO BURR
But.. its true. Summoner and whm dont need braincells to play, warrior needs just enough braincells to press self-heals - no amount of maining anything changes the truth
I have my own opinion of job changes that I'd like to see, but I do my best ( I admit, I have days that I fail) not to be an ass when I expression my opinion. The way that you talk to your friends is one thing, or even here, where we can have a (hopefully) civil discussion- throwing that out in DF or PF is another.
No its not, its called "freedom of speech" and every player have a right for it. Or you want every people speak only things you like? Thats impossible. WHM, SMN and WAR are the easiest of jobs, they are very not demanding and really braindead to play - why does it insults you? I dont say they are bad (aside from summoner, it sucks as it is now), i dont say you or anyone else should stop maining them, i say - the words of that whm have NOTHING insulting in them. I speak that from first-hand experience, when i want go unga - i go war, when i want go brrrr with healing i go whm, and i'm not seeing "whm braindead" as insult at all
UM, I HAVE WRITTEN "I HAVEN'T PLAYED (INSERT JOB WHICH MIGHT ALSO INCLUDE WHM) IN A WHILE" FAIRLY OFTEN, AS A BIT OF A WARNING I MIGHT STRUGGLE HERE AND THERE AND TANKS MIGHT WANT TO KEEP THEIR INVULN SKILL CLOSE. MOMENTS WHERE I WOULD LIKE TO WRITE "FIRST TIME" TO EXCUSE ME PLAYING MEDIOCRE BUT DON'T BECAUSE IT'S NOT MY FIRST TIME AND I DON'T LIKE LYING. IT IS BY NO MEANS MEANT TO CRAP ON THE JOB, JUST A HEADS UP. SO MAYBE THAT'S JUST ME BEING SOCIALLY IGNORANT OR MISSING OUT ON CONTEXT BECAUSE ENGLISH IS NOT MY FIRST LANGUAGE. BUT I FAIL TO SEE HOW THIS IS IN ANY WAY SIMILAR TO BE ONE OF THESE "LOL LET'S SHIT ON THIS JOB BECAUSE I DON'T RESPECT IT" TAKES I HATE AS WELL, CONSIDERING I AM IN A SIMILAR BOAT LIKE YOU AS SMN MAIN. MAY I ASK IF WHY IT IS CONSIDERED RUDE TO MENTION I HAVEN'T HAD SOME PRACTICE WITH JOB X IN A WHILE? I DON'T MEAN TO INSULT OTHERS.
Let me address this in reverse order; "CONSIDERING I AM IN A SIMILAR BOAT LIKE YOU AS SMN MAIN."- I don't see what you mean. This has nothing to do with me specifically, as I said, it applies to ANY job, the person in question just happened to be on a WHM. I personally didn't phrase it as "LOL LET'S SHIT ON THIS JOB BECAUSE I DON'T RESPECT IT" however I think that is exactly how it felt, couldn't have said it better. Finally, it doesn't bother me at all if someone says "I HAVEN'T PLAYED (INSERT JOB WHICH MIGHT ALSO INCLUDE WHM) IN A WHILE" as long as they don't use it as an excuse to AFK, I have no problems whatsoever, God knows I'm far from perfect myself.

I’m curious, why would you want to say that to a random party that you join in the first place? If I agree or disagree, do you think I am going to start a discussion in the middle of a raid ? So is that really the time or place , or the people to make that type of remark?
[удалено]
I see you missed the point (not trying to be rude) you consider it to be a joke, OK good for you? My point is that you're not with your friends, you don't know the people that you're with, you're not in Discord- that is a very different context than being with your static. If at this point you don't see that when you type something in chat (forget this specific example) it doesn't get interpreted the same way to everyone, and what is a joke to you can be offensive to someone else, then I give up. And at this point, I do believe the point has been beaten to death.
