PVP FUCKING SUCKS
PVP FUCKING SUCKS
very true but who plays xiv for the pvp?
I just want that field commander coat but holy shit Adders on Aether won't stop fucking feeding
I wish I could go back in time and stop myself from playing those two matches of PvP I did five years ago. Time that could've been better spent doing literally anything else, including idling for fucks sake.
just swap to maelstrom or flames then swap back adders on aether are shit at pvp
PvP sucks this is no surprise but so does the PvE outside of circle/square room bosses. The question now is what is actually good about this game? It has a horrible barrier of entry for new players given they've yet to squish ARR properly, once you do a raid tier you've done them all and the biggest point that players have focused on, glamour, have arbitrary restrictions that the devs themselves have contradicted many times.
>how can you tell you're a WHM
Ever wanted to have a team all have the same weapons and armor? Literally use Edea's scythe for 2 DRK, 2 WHM and 4 BLM with matching all class glamours. So much for class identity.
>always hear about how adders on aether suck
>every time I queue for PVP (maelstrom) adders win
what the heck
My kneejerk reaction is always to say, "No it doesn't" but then I remember that for some reason when some people talk about PVP in this game, they're talking about Feast and not Frontline.
what are you crying about?
There's honestly not any reliable winning team right now. Mael is the closest, but if they win more than one match in a row, both IF and Adders will team up for the next several matches to ensure Mael gets last place. Even when that's not happening, there are nights when either Adder or IF ends up with all the good players and Mael has all the shitters.
You may as well just play with Freelancer on, because it's a total crapshoot these days anyway. Unless you actually get good (and have a halfway decent team that responds to the callouts) and can lead you team to victory.
PVP FEEDING SEEDS
72man frontlines is retarded, at least in 8v8v8 you can somewhat control your group of retards.
Answer the question user
>circle/square room bosses
What are people looking for when they make this complaint?
pvps only purpose is for glam, its a minigame just like the gold saucer
Is this a Simpsons reference
PvP sucks in FFXIV because the netcode is shit and there is no room for counterplay. With how long the GCD is you figure stuns would last like 5-8 seconds and not just serve as interrupts. There is no way to actually shut people down, punish people or react appropriately because both the systems and game do not allow you to.
You know shit is fucked if players aren't even where they appear to be, as player movement is like 0.5-0.75s ahead of where they are on your client. You can be following someone directly in melee range and all your abilities will fail to go off because you aren't actually in melee range at all.
Well given it says 'outside of' I think its safe to assume that theyre saying it shines in Circle/Square rooms user. It is a combat system built around encounters rather than trash.
>during the 4.0 PvP rush for exp actually manage to rally Maelstrom to a stunning victory
>cheers all around
>7 commendations
>no one listens anymore
Immortal Flames are the biggest retards on primal, prove me wrong.
t. Immortal Flames that wishes to get the other two in Seize.
I'm always amazed how people are surprised that most things about XIV suck. I presume the biggest factor is the bleeding heart fanbase that defend their years-invested QoL game life because they are too weak to quit the game (like I did).
Anyone should've been aware that PVP went down the shitter when they dumbed down EVERY class giving them only a set of fisher-price pvp-only abilities while taking away any overworld/PVE mechanics for """"balance"""" so that the babies could have a fair fight.
Despite the fact that XIV is 5 years strong and has ZERO (0.00) overworld pvp servers (much less a single zone or two) should tell you all you need to know. Eureka would've been the perfect place for World PVP, yet they drove it safe (and every-other-patch rehashy) like they do for everything else.
Pic related is when I went back to WoW vanilla/bc private servers (no, not nu-WoW which prides itself on being a XIV clone) and ganked the fuck out of people, something I would've LOVED to do to the degenerate fuckbags who played on my XIV servers.
>There is no way to actually shut people down
Not on your own, but an organized team can completely shut someone down. Draw-in, stun, silence, sleep, bind. Those are far more than enough to shut anyone down long enough to kill them.
What if....what if they implemented some kind of open world pvp system in the new expansion? with some kind of opt out option for people who aren't into that, but huge incentives for those that do?
Maybe you could side with the light side (and whoever the main antagonist is), and you fight for territory against the "shadowbringers" side? hmmm.....
God damn you're just looking to blindly defend this game arent you?
>but so does the PvE outside of circle/square room bosses
Legit implies the game's PvE system only works in those damn rooms, its why Eureka is shit and why Dungeons are a boring slog outside of maybe 1 or 2 of the 3 bosses.
>With how long the GCD is you figure stuns would last like 5-8 seconds and not just serve as interrupts.
This would be far too strong. Good DPS players can burst kill anything other than a tank in less than 2 or 3 GCDs.
PvP in FFXIV isn't about shutting down other players, it's more about taking the opponent by surprise.
Ah fair enough. I should have read the whole thing instead of jumping on one bit.
*heals to full in one OGCD thus forcing you to wait 90s for your burst to come back*
>"The mhiggers, the lalas, the cats...It's our responsibility to civilize them. And if we can't? Then they shall dangle from the Sephirot tree. The Day of the Rope is near, WoL. We'll have every mhigger in this country dead or in chains in 10 years, and may Hydaelyn have me shot in a carjacking this very night if I'm wrong. Halone bless the Garlemald Imperial Legion."
im suprised they are still putting in any amount of time to do things for pvp in this shitheap of a game at all
>opt out option
And your World PvP scene dies given how many players are either idling in city hubs showing off cash shop items or just wanting to get some quick glamour reward tied to Beast Men, some random ass side quest or screenshots.
>Yoshida bragged about making PvP characters in old MMOs to kill people randomly
I honestly feel like the majority of what this man says is exaggerated. Have a strong feeling he was the same as the idlers in hubs where he'd only play if his friends pulled him along.
Why would you burst someone when you know the healers has his oGCD heal up?
>With how long the GCD is you figure stuns would last like 5-8 seconds and not just serve as interrupts.
being CC'd is not actually fun
>is shut down
>heals to full
Pick one. If you let them heal, that's your own fault. Though again, I'm talking about Frontlines, where an organized group of 8 (let alone 24) can melt a healer before they even think to hit their heals. No idea how effective trying to shut someone down in Feast is.
I miss PvP for XP desu.
>the lalas
>It's our responsibility to civilize them
But user, you're the beastmen who wishes they had those potato jew's cash and political power. You honestly think they're not buddy buddy with the Garleans due to the sole motivation of profit?

(cont.)
XIV pvp can be condensed to one word: sterile. They completely sterilized the system between the time there was one single battleground to the point.
Their attempts at engaging are very crude. I'd say the biggest issue is that you have three teams competing against each other, in which one team can avoid the other two and end up in second while the team that goes against the "winners" ends up in third for even trying. "Put in effort, win third place". It's why every other MMO ever has team vs team, as in real life sports (which XIV pvp is, honestly, just a sport, not a real battle or war).
Down the road, once SE realized that their PVP sucked ass and they worked themselves into a slippery adjusting the classes' fisher-price pvp toolkit (I love to make this analogy but I apologize for insulting Fisher-Price Corp.), their only logical option (by their muddled vision) was to lock QoL cosmetic items behind tedious PVP grinds, all of which I did because I was half decent, but hated every minute of it. The best times were when they locked Towel housing items behind PVP, which promtpted all the terrible ERP players to pvp and get wiped out by people like me, since they needed towels for whatever fucked-up cottage they were planning next (most of them weren't savvy enough to afford mediums or mansions). Before this, they tried to encourage frontline through khloe's weekly book.
I might keep writing if I feel the system deserves more punishment and redpills.
>Garleans asking for a god's blessing
How do I get a catgirl gf (female)?
Fuck off pedo
saved for pasta
I assumed commendations would always go to tanks and maybe healers, but so far I've been getting them left and right as Lancer and Archer. Do people just give them to characters they think look nice, or what?
I systematically give a comm to my fellow DPS unless the AST babysits me with cards.
>Ever wanted to have a team all have the same weapons and armor? Literally use Edea's scythe for 2 DRK, 2 WHM and 4 BLM with matching all class glamours. So much for class identity.
>Class identity dictated by one set of vanity weapons
>The question now is what is actually good about this game?
Depth of combat being more than three button long rotations like the competition. Devs that actually listen to their community and try to improve their game instead of >muh player retention.
>It has a horrible barrier of entry for new players given they've yet to squish ARR properly
Yeah I'll give you this one.
>once you do a raid tier you've done them all
Once you've played an FPS you've played them all.
Once you've eaten food you've eaten it all.
Once you've driven a car you've driven them all.
Once you've been to a country you've been to them all.
I'm not really sure what you even mean by this. Every game has a set of boundaries it works within and mechanics are made with those restrictions in mind. Innovation is bad for MMOs that already have an established playerbase, if you start changing the core mechanics of the game you'll only alienate your audience.
A raid group is eight people, divided into roles. DPS roles job is to do damage therefore their mechanics should revolve around that, doing damage.
Healers have mechanics that require them to manage their healing and aggro.
Tanks have mechanics that require them to manage their cooldowns and aggro.
Those are the "rules" that they create fights with, why is that a bad thing? Go to a restaurant and order a pizza, regardless of toppings it's still pizza but it sure as hell doesn't taste the same everytime. Same goes for raids.
Hm, might start doing that to make dps feel more appreciated. When they don't suck or are a Lalafell, that is.
>keep getting healers without rank in feast
Just kill me.
After considering giving this game a try for a long time, I've been having great fun the past week playing this.
I took some time to set up my keybinds in advance, so I won't have a huge mess of things by the time I get to max level, and instead have some logic between jobs and ability priorities. The amount of abilities is one of the things that made me reluctant to try it before, but with a good setup it doesn't look all that daunting anymore.
But more surprisingly is that, while there's extremely little chat in the open, everyone I've met in a party has been friendly af. You guys weren't kidding.
Where are my fellow Lalafell enthusiasts at?
>make a primal alt to hang with a couple friends in excalibur
>reach satasha and lose all motivation to level and continue
Jesus fucking christ ARR is such a slog and it amazes me how many people managed to sit through this shit just to reach the actual game sometimes I dont even know how I managed to make it through with how boring it is.
A mental institution, probably. Kindly fuck off.
>keeping going up against top 10 healer
>My healer is always some shitter that stands still and spam casts.
Help.
>play as Adders
>We feed
>Switch to flames
>Adders SHITTERS join me and feed
Okay who's fucking stalking me?
Keeping on the down-low because I'm sick of getting this every time I talk about anything.
Yeah I'm at level 25 msq quests and I'm thinking about quitting. I looked at the msq list and I just dont know if I can sit through all this garbage to actually have fun in multiplayer
Yeah the playerbase is carebeary as fuck. Unfortunately it has its drawbacks too. Like sometimes being unable give a player tips on how to play better without being met with butthurt or the game being full of duplicitous drama queens.
Maybe don't like those godawful midgets and you wouldn't be seen as a fucking moron. Fuckhead. Fuck.
Right here man.
It's flipped back around. Because everyone assumes that the tanks and healers always get the comm, now everyone comms anyone but the tank or healer.
That said, 90% of the time when I'm doing an Expert as a tank with my two friends (who are good players) I get the comm.
Idk. Once you hit endgame, everyone's kinda a prick
Rude
Yoshida has already stated before most people drop off the Lvl 20 mark so you're not alone. Makes me laugh when people think WoW players will stick to that slog.
Because it wasn't boring the first time. You were on an adventure where every zone felt vast as you explored on it foot until you got your first chocobo. You went from being a literal nothing to becoming the god slayer you are now that's in political turmoil with the Garlemead empire and now having to dimension hop. Like all JRPGs, it's a slog to go through the story again if you ever find yourself wanting to replay a story heavy JRPG.
At least I'm not the whiny shits who want actual children instead of hrothgar.
Reminds me a little too much of the guild I was in for a while in WoW, where they were real friendly but absolutely shut down anytime I (or another member) wanted to help players improve. Guess it's hard to find a good spot between friendly players and complete casuals who don't give a single shit about what they're doing.
Hoping the current trend keeps up though, had three runs were more experienced players helped out a new tank and healer, and it all went smooth and nice.
Shitting up an otherwise enjoyable game with those shitty, obnoxious players is rude.
>at least...
No. No "at least". You're scum and there's no way around that.
I gotten full commendations as a BLM for some reason. Guess I did good DPS or something.
I get what you're saying, but you're not entirely correct. Even the first time, 30-50 (especially the preamble to Titan) felt like a huge slog.
This scene was the straw that broke the camel's back and changed how I perceive how my character deals with Tataru crying. we both cry while hugging.
Sure there is a way around being scum or not. "I'm not Teledji."
You might be getting lucky. I can bend over backwards as a DPS to ensure the run goes fast as possible and smooth and get fuck all, and yet I can be a shitter tank that does literally nothing to make the experience smooth and leave with 3 commendations. People are just fucking stupid.
they'll never try anything as remotely fun as this because the devs don't want to scare away the retards.
That's why everything has been dumbed down, just get over it bro, XIV is aimed at people that don't like video games
>Depth of combat being more than three button long rotations like the competition.
What depth? There is no depth at all. You learn your static rotation that includes lining up your oGCDs for maximum performance and thats it. There is no dynamic relationship between stats and players that would affect your rotations in any meaningful way and the overall progression design is solely based on that +1. Just because you press more buttons than WoW and its other WoW-clone siblings does not make it "deep".
>Devs that actually listen to their community and try to improve their game instead
Oh you have to be jesting at this point. The communication between XIV's team and the playerbase is as sterile as it can be. Literally just asian WoW at this point. Come now if you want a proper example of communication and desire to improve go look at Warframe and their dev communication with players. Sure the game isn't the best but you can be damn sure they try and listen to their fans or even straight out tell them why they think their right without stepping on any toes. XIV's team takes months to respond with a shitty excuse about limitations if they don't straight up ignore it.
>Go to a restaurant and order a pizza, regardless of toppings it's still pizza but it sure as hell doesn't taste the same everytime.
Sure the analogy works if you want to consider toppings the equivalent of in-game textures. The game is stagnant and hasn't improved on any of their designs. They have a solid foundation for raids and dungeons, especially so after mixing them a bit in the Baldesion Arsenal but holy shit do they really ignore building up anything. I think its more fair to say they give us a piece of toast with a thin layer of jelly or spread and never think to top it off with more toast.
Is it possible to blacklist someone from feast?
the group was a premade and you were the odd man out.
The first time I played I ended up switching from Thaum to Arcanist, leveling SMN to 50 then instantly switching back to level BLM instead tell me more about this slog.
Frontlines is like one of the top 3 reasons I keep subbing to Yoshida's WoWclone.
Did you follow what they said?
God this game is fucking boring
>It gets good after 250 hours
No, just no
I dunno what happened, but since the DC expansion, Maelstrom has been awful. It could be the garo thing so a bunch of newbies are jumping in. But the usual names I used to see aren't playing lately. Could be just doing other stuff or unsubbed before ShB. Either way, we're full on failstrom these days.
It's kinda fun with friends who know how to burst. Just shooting the shit while stomping on unorganized pugs. Better than progging a tier and everybody hating each other because one guy randomly fails a mechanic and it's 10 minutes down the drain and another 5 minutes making sure everybody can do the mechanic repeat ad infinitum.
I wonder what the IQ could be of a RDM that thinks his rotation is.
>Verthunder, Verthunder, Verthunder, Verthunder.
Keep getting commendations as an Archer. Maybe people are surprised that ranged doesn't pull everything in sight? Or is that just my old WoW huntard memory being biased.
t. adhd autist
Might just be the short skirt and strapless top, then. Haven't had a run without one commendation yet.
People will give commends to dps that actually knows what the fuck they're doing. Have a basic understanding of Bard and you'll get commended for not sucking.
Bizarrely the game truly "begins" and opens up at 50, and by the time you max level and do all the advancement quests, your class is barely recognizable from when you started.
I'm sorry. Now he's including Break in his rotation.
As a tank I give coms to anyone who uses AOEs.
To the wizcat asking for a pointy hat in the previous thread:
Sharlayan hat looks fine. The band doesn't perfectly match the yafemi coat's color, but no pointy hat really does. You might otherwise try the yafemi hat since it's from the same set, but I'm guessing since you're not already wearing it you're not too happy with the way it looks either.
Saying this here because I saw you ingame. It looks fine.
Where my pointy hat BLMs at?
Clearly he's saving his so he can rez the rest of the shitters in the group.
PVE sucks too
If I'm my Dragoon and the other DPS is Dragoon too, I've come to the conclusion that the mutual commendation is guaranteed. It's basically law.
>playing this game for PvP
the real content is what you did in houses
That's a pretty big improvement
There's a reason it's called Field Commanders's Coat.
Why would they give me all of the commends if they were a premade?
git gud
>Tard Wrangler's Coat
So uh how does the 3 strikes system work?
I got warned a year ago for trying to buy a girlfriend off party finder.
They can't comm anyone else in the premade. So they'll comm you because whatever.
Premades can't commend each other.

So if the slutty side of the world of XIV was real and I was walking down the main street of Ul'Dah, how many female mi'qote would dive to the ground moaning loudly when I threw $100 onto the ground?
I’m most likely going to try to get the sigmascape hat when I hit 70 and I don’t have the other hat yet.
If you hand out commends all willy nilly then you're doing it wrong.
Only give them out if someone has actually done a good job.

Fuck off commies. You can finish your challenge log and still only give them out to worthy players. You've now given away the right to complain about bad players.
Imagine being warrior of light in that scene and having to be all like "damn, Lyse, you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your tight body and obnoxious fucking voice. I would totally fight side by side with you, both my character and the real me." when all he really wants to do is have another Leveilleur twin threesome in his lavender bed mansion. Like seriously imagine having to be the warrior of light and not only sit in that chair while Lyse clenches her scrawny fist in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing your immense rage, and just sit there, lie after lie, hour after hour, while she perfected that speech. Not only having to tolerate her complete bullshit but her haughty attitude as all the scions tell her she's AN ASSET TO THE TEAM and DAMN, LYSE DID ALL *THAT*?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch her exaggerate and outright lie about how much shit she actually did to help free Doma and Ala Mhigo, making up battles you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of prime elezen teenagers and later alleged rape victims for your ENTIRE ADVENTURING CAREER coming straight out of the boonies in Gridania. You've never experienced anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can smell the hot breath that's coming out on her lying mouth as she smiles and turns to you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to sit there and revel in her retelling her “Massive Contributions” to the war effort, the contributions she worked so hard for by calling starving peasants cowards for not fighting heavily armed Garleans and then shaking her fist at said Garleans. And then Raubahn asks for another tale, and you know you could kill every single person in this room and Hydaelyn herself couldn’t put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're the fucking warrior of light. You hide your face and bear it.
None of them because paper money doesn't exist in Eorzea, It's like you don't even think things through before posting them, ugh
JP??! ^^ ONRY?!
touch fluffy tail
its a shame
range and healers are overpowered as fuck in pvp
tanks use to be monsters in pvp as well but ever since they streamlined the pvp they gutted tanks hard
dps have jobs that are good, healers are just fucking broken strong, and tanks are joke
great balance square
But I won't commend you.
We need to organize things like the latest Game of Thrones episode. Healers will be up front and taking the hits, Ranged DPS will be at melee distance, Melee DPS can only attack if their AOE lands and the Tanks hang back in case none of the above works to save the day.

>Lyse
>years of war and battle
yes, welcome to team pvp in any video game ever made.
Examples, WoW has a bossfight where you fight on a dragon's back and have to get tethered to it when he decides to do barrel rolls and shit, it also has a fight where you jump between two airships and fire cannons at people and shit. It also has a fight where you run from the lich king through a crumbling cave
Not trying to suck WoW off but the fights themselves are way fucking better (at least up to Cataclysm) cinematography and music be damned
Hey man, clenching your fist and bitching about everything is hard work.
Don't mind the guy in the middle suffering from a freak tanning saloon accident.
Does it make me gay if I want to fuck Alphinaud's cosplayer more than Alisaie's?
Sure Deathwing's back is one thing but the rest is reused locations: the raid.
How would you feel if they removed the cast time on iaijutsu?
she's been fighting by your side since ARR
even after disappearing at the end of it she was fighting through HW up to meeting her again in 3.4
she fights all the way through SB
but yeah let's ignore that because meme of "she didn't do anything and takes all the credit"
They seem to have okay armpits at least

I'm surprised there's no outrage
No, she's more attractive.

Alisaie went off on a shounen training arc to become a RDM so she could stand by your side. She doesn't try to take credit though.
Louisoix's a nigger...
I played it during Heavensward and never really cared for PvP because the netcode felt so fucking busted, everyone was sliding all over the fucking place and the melee hitboxes were fucking weird, too.
I guess they never fixed this, right?
I'm tired of babysitting children.
That's not possible. Even if you implied every major quest was only like a quarter a day at most, there's some "Ash is still ten in Pokemon Sun and Moon" level time shenanigans going on.
I didn't imply that at all. She's been fighting constantly, and is literally a "fist first questions later" character. Presumably she was doing plenty of fighting before ARR.
You know you've been tricked by a meme right? She literally says everything is all thanks to you. Ala Mhigo knows the Warrior of Light liberated their country with help from their commander, not the other way around.
>He likes standing still
Come on user.
HW had quite a few gimmicky fights too.
Bismarck, Sophia, A2 (it's shit I know), A7, A10 off the top of my head.
That's literally what they said has been happening.
But the gear looks so good, sometimes.
Stop skipping cutscenes. They say multiple times in SB that it's still been 20 years since Ala Mhigo was taken. It's always 5 years since the Calamity. Devs have said multiple times that the story exists in a time bubble and it will always be the same year unless explicitly stated otherwise.
>Seiryu has swimming
Fucking costa del sol has swimming. Truly mindblowing
Why is pvp feast shit still locked when virtually nothing else in the game is? Even 1.0 items lost their exclusivity so what the fuck makes this games god awful pvp so special when it is universally hated?
One of the few things I like about wow over this is some of the comparatively wacky shit they do with their raids. A lot of that is probably because they have a lot more leeway to get away with it with 25 players rather than 8, but at least it's pretty interesting.
>Have an artstyle that looks good even today from a distance
>Every cutscene is full of close-ups where you can see the dogshit textures
What did they mean by this?
That's fucking goofy and I'm surprised the WoL doesn't just drop dead from exhaustion, especially when you add the side quests and advancement quests/implied training into the mix.
Snowflake pvp community would get into an outrage larger than the 1.0 "community" that barely exists in the first place.
The Echo is also known as the Power to Transcend. It's basically an ability that allows you to constantly defy what should be possible and continue to break your limits.
Next you'll say that you shouldn't even sheathe the katana do to IAIJUTSU techniques.
You're no samurai. Begone.
I'm actually disappointed by the lack of swimming mechanics in SB. I was expecting them to take full advantage of it, but the most we got was Seiryu and Rabanastre.
>switch to maelstrom
>they can't stop losing
Obviously it's my fault
Oh right. SB added swimming. Boy that rivals WoW's voice chat as thing added that barely even registers as a thing that exists.
Freelance ruined it.
i used to
i miss the 8 warrior rape trains back in 50 cap
i miss picking off dickheads during 60 cap with DRK who thought the class was shit (it was) and that i'd be an easy kill alone
the changes they made definitely made it more accessible and fun with friends but at the same time completely sucked the soul out of it for me and is the prime reason i canceled my account
haha wouldn't it be funny if they give hrothgar oddly detailed emotes where they swallowed and digested each other? or maybe they could fart and belch or something idk just throwing ideas out there lol
Yes, murder via cannibalism is hilarious, we get it.
i enjoyed popping Living Dead and holding a bunch of retards still trying to kill me while my team destroyed crystals
Swimming still sucks man, I hope they add actual underwater combat in SHB. Right now it's just flying with a water filter and a loading screen. Shit's dumb.
Stop calling anyone that doesn't like something in the game a WoWfag.
oh bby
You just KNOW
Do you think they would care if they brought back the old Feast rewards, but kept them in Feast?
it's in the eyes, THE EYES
will they even have un underwater zone in ShB? Seems like a waste of time.
holy shit yes
i remember running a maxed out push back build and just suicide running into an entire alliance spamming abyssal drain and popping tar pit and shit with living dead on and watching as every physical damage mouthbreather slaughtered themselves attacking me
my highest record doing that was 9 kills and it was the funniest fucking thing to do
What the actual fuck are you talking about?
Underwater combat is guaranteed to be shit (just like it is in WoW). I wouldn't mind if they stealth added it, but you know if they put in the effort to add it, they'd add a bunch of pointless sections to show it off.
>underwater combat
Holy shit that sounds terrible
Swimming in the lake in Lakeland would be cool. Probably some heavy lore stuff down there.
I thought the crystal meme was just that, a meme. But holy shit Balmung and Mateus are just straight up bad at this game
That's what you said about the ruby sea huh?
Is it worth my time to learn savage raids now or should I just find something else to do until Shadowbringers? It feels like I picked an awkward time to start playing.
I didn't, but I do think underwater Ruby Sea is cool even if it's useless. Lakeland is the First's version of Mor Dhona and we know Silvertear is extremely important to everything somehow. It would be cool to swim and see what's down there.
why do u think they separated them from everyone else? its not a meme even yoshi knows it
another Omega
Not really
But casual PvP is fun
thankfully I can get out of this hell hole for free
>He didn't believe Crystal is the containment DC
I'm not expecting it to be anything but regular combat underwater.
>Monsters only exist on land, never in the sea. Even sea based monsters are just dicking around on land for some reason.
Raids are generally a complete dumpster fire to learn this late into a tier, due to people who haven't touched a savage raid before trying it out after they get caught up, and people who should know better than to touch a savage raid doing it because they think their upgraded tome gear will carry them to victory. I'm not saying you shouldn't do it but you should probably bring a buddy or two along.
>Monsters only exist on land, never in the sea. Even sea based monsters are just dicking around on land for some reason.
Come on now user, don't you remember the random Kojin bubbles along the rocks in Ruby Sea so they could put enemies down there?
but all of it was right
Chaos/o9s is pretty good introduction to raiding.
Who is gonna argue it? PvP is shit and if you play this game for PvP then you're a straight up moron when you can be playing other games instead.
Why did they destroy the lore?
If you play with a premade it's already not casual.
Which part?
When?
>having shit standards
You really are desperate for an MMO arent you?
Who?
I agree with everything he said.
Because of wowfugees.
I just can't take the game seriously now with playable beastmen, it's dumb as shit
The STATE of NN
wtf is the lore even?
Stop skipping cutscenes
>NN on any server
you retard
The Hrothgars are less beastman than Miqo'te. The fact that they look like anthropomorphic lions doesn't mean they're less civilized than any other Eorzean race.
I play solo only so I don't get freelance'd to adders or flames
t. syndicate lalafell
There was some sprout in the NN who was sperging out about lalafells being "pedo shit" a couple weeks ago. The entire NN shit on him for being a retard
Eorzean definition of beastmen is literally based on appearance though, unlike the Garleans who base the definition on primal summoning. The Kobolds and Amalj'aa are both very advanced races. Kobolds have alchemy techniques powerful enough to mass produce voidsent, and they taught Lominsans their metallurgy in the first place. The cobalt ore is even named after them because of that.
>The Hrothgars are less beastman than Miqo'te
Goblins are also a race of wandering scholar geniuses who have machines almost on par with Garlemald but they're still beastmen.
>playable beastmen
>he believes Lalajew lies
It's established in the Hrothgars' lore that they're already known by Eorzean to be a civilized and peaceful race. Eorzean wouldn't refuse diplomacy and trade with a people that can craft Gunblades. It's not like they'll suddenly barge in at the start of ShB and demand equal treatment as any other race.
>It's established in the Hrothgars' lore that they're already known by Eorzean to be a civilized and peaceful race.
Yeah, that was also the case with the Goblins and Qiqirns but they were still labelled beastmen and banned from Ul'dah because of their appearance.
>Eorzean wouldn't refuse diplomacy and trade with a people that can craft Gunblades
They did already with the Goblins.
Nah, had way worse issues with servers that are still on Aether. Some bad servers still, and Mateus isn't great by any means, but Balmung has always had completely fine players when I see them.
he's right though
another midgardsomnr
>how might we begin to claim any manner of intellectual superioirity to (a dragon who's lived x100 as us)?
By killing them like fodder as has been done for literally 1000 years?
This game is so stupid with its dragon lore, I swear.
Goblins and Qiqirns aren't half as civilized as Hrothgars. They both can't speak the Eorzean dialect well while the Hrothgars learned it extremely quickly. The Goblins' technology is really primitive compared to them too.
That edit truggered them that much?
>Goblins and Qiqirns aren't half as civilized as Hrothgars
Goblins are incredibly civilized, they just speak strangely because while they understand the language they don't really grasp the grammar which leads to those weird compound words.
>The Goblins' technology is really primitive compared to them too.
It's really not. Goblin technology is incredibly advanced and almost on par with Garlean technology. They have mechs, remote control system, gunblades, jetpacks, etc.
Midgardsomr is from space, he's traversed the shards. He's the only one.
There's gotta be something going on. I'm even malestrom and we don't win 2/3 of our matches.
The legion of trannies got really mad about this, and I still don't know why.
It's not like they care about female hrothgar either.
If you haven't done any savage raiding until now, it's worth poking your head in just to get an idea of what it's like, but it's not worth getting into seriously right now unless you want to get the mounts and such. Or if you're looking to get into a static.
If he landed before the split, there would be multiple after the split. And if he landed after the split, then you need to consider if the entire universe was copied 13 times over as well, or if it's localized in space to Hydaelyn. Because if the entire cosmos was also copied then there would be 13 other Midgardsormrs.
but Hrothgars are *even* more civilized than they are which though. Gunblades are more advanced than goblin machines
Kobolds aren't civilized, beastmen are defined by their social hierarchy being tribal/primative in nature. It's why Miqo'te were seen as being beastmen because of their primitive and savage hunter/gatherer/incest shit.
Hrothgar from what we know are actually civilized and besides lower birthrates have a working culture.
Just have bunch of macros with sound effects to herd the sheep
The man who saved ffxiv.
He's old but isn't as old as the shards
>sjw localizers ruining the lore
great
>Kobolds aren't civilized, beastmen are defined by their social hierarchy being tribal/primative in nature.
Kobold hierarchy isn't tribal or primitive though. It has priest castes at the top and then is defined by the quality of your work. Not very different from Ishgard.
>It's why Miqo'te were seen as being beastmen because of their primitive and savage hunter/gatherer/incest shit
Miqo'te haven't been labelled beastmen since the Allagan era.
The split was only 12,000 years ago. And again, you need to wonder if the split also copied all of space. Because if it did then there are 13 Dragonstar copies.
checkmate libtards
The Goblins who show the most technological prowess are the Illuminati and they're evil little shits. Apart from them there's Mutamix and there's no hint that Ul'dah ever banned him. If anything he's chilling in the middle of their lands.
This whole running joke around lalafell being pedobait has me thinking about how there must be a entire community of people who actually pair people with dwarfism and children together when it comes to the "is it okay to bang"-o-meter.
The so y hit too hard, they had to get it out somewhere.
this makes me wonder if there was an ancient human civilization prior to the split. Elidibus seems to imply that humanity was split as well. Maybe thats why Eulmore and Limsa looks the same? Its a city that existed pre-split and people recolonized it afterwards
>Apart from them there's Mutamix and there's no hint that Ul'dah ever banned him.
They did, actually, and that's why he's out by Black Brush instead of in Ul'dah.
>If anything he's chilling in the middle of their lands.
The structure of a city-state means that Ul'dah is just the city itself. While they technically claim dominion over Thanalan, that isn't really their concern outside of Lolorito financing the Brass Blades to ensure the trade routes are safe.
I think Limsa/Eulmore is a case of some kind of cosmic synchronicity. The lore gives us a date for the foundation of Limsa, so I doubt it's really that ancient.
Fucking subhyurs I swear
>Elidibus was one of the original humans and he's trying to restore the world to what it once was so he can go home
>600 campaigns
Do you even PVP?
You can make anything sound like a good cause if you simplify enough. Like how Ganon just wanted to give his people a hospitable home, or how Magneto wants to just end the strife between mutant and man so his kind can live in peace.
Post armpits Lyse
Well yeah, but both of those characters were later twisted. Can you say it's objectively wrong to want to restore the universe? The nature of the Lifestream means all those lives you end in the process will be reborn again someday.
I have a problem. I keep trolling in this game. People take the bait so fucking easily, I can't help myself. How do I stop?
Go into autopilot while playing the game and put the chat away.
...
u dont keep being an epic TROLOLOLOLER!!
is it so bad if everyone merges into 1 superbeing? Everyone will be equal, no more fighting. no more suffering. all is one
You still kill them, and it doesn't mean they will be reborn as themselves, so yeah its kinda fucked up bro. If you told me you wanted to genocide me today I'd probably tell you no as well even if it's for some cosmic "good"
I choose who NOT to comm based on certain criteria

It is primative they have no towns or housing or any real local government, currency or economy.
They're basically niggers. I mean they're dark enough.
I thought you were joking, but that whole page feels like a condescending UM NO ACTUALLY YOU FASCIST diatribe.
Fuck off SEELE
Well, except for direct calamity-induced changes (like Coerthas becoming a frigid hellhole), the geography of the various shards would be roughly the same, with largely the same local resources, so good city locations being used in multiple worlds is still within the boundaries of verisimilitude imo.
how much does a boost to 1700 cost bros
It's just so easy. People get so triggered in the community over every little thing.
>It is primative they have no towns or housing or any real local government, currency or economy.
They have all of those things though. They have a currency system you use in their tribe quests, they have a structured government hierarchy, and they have housing but you don't see it because O'ghomoro is just a mining operation.
Definitely, but the architecture being almost an exact copy is strange and I hope they explore it a bit.
Thanks, I'll at least give it a try then. It's not like mindlessly doing roulette is going to make me any better at the game.
Did you focus the fucking healer?
>Tranny with mods
Big yikes...
Give me shota bunny boys or give me death!
Go make videos already you lazy fuck.
how come sun miqo'te aren't beastmen then? their settlement is less impressive than compared to Xelphatol
In a few months.
Considering that makes you an actual pedo, that "or" is going to become "and".
>Definitely, but the architecture being almost an exact copy is strange and I hope they explore it a bit.
that's what gets me. It looks exactly like limsa. It would make sense if it looks similar, but different like Nym's architecture vs Limsa
Was it ever shown that he was denied entry from Ul'dah though? I'm pretty sure he's near Black Brush because he needs room for his furnace and other tools.
It seems weird to me that Ul'dah wouldn't trust a beastman enough to let them enter their city but would still let him settle down near a railway for trains transporting precious ore.
that all sounds like stupid shit only faggots like
it's a video game not a fucking movie
QTE "bosses" are cringe and you honestly just made WoW look bad by defending that kind of shit
nice job idiot
Where's my cock kiss gay boy?
Because beastman is a literal buzzword to keep them as less of a person.
The people who made the word said "hey these miqo'te are alright they can come in"
I believe a big part is Ul'dah having rather archaic laws but they stick to them regardless. It apparently names the beast tribe (goblin, amalja, kobold) not allowed as well, as the Mamool Ja are allowed in because they weren't in the books when the laws were made, being a beast tribe from the New World.
Why do you fucks keep giving him (you)s?
>All these bronze babbies thinking Feast is bad
Your what?
ffxiv.gamerescape.com
It doesn't expressly say he was denied entry, but this news article from 1.0 was what introduced the concept of the beastman ban and also says that the Ul'dahn merchants don't want him around.
Delete this....
>joke
lalafell are toddlercon they don't resemble dwarfs like shortstacks
based bronzie poster
>same obsessed nigger still """ironically""" begging for erp
No way fag I've been spamming frontlines and it's fun as hell
They don't resemble toddlers either. Have you ever had a child or younger siblings? Lalafell are a slightly longer snout and tails\ away from being mouse people.
The other thing is a hypothetical mythical turtle with an IQ of 57 can live for millions of years, that doesn't make it smarter than you by any means. Dragons get to live that long because they're fucking apex predators with magic lizard lifespans, not because they're smart and shit.
>Doing a good job of ignoring his post like three threads in a row
>dumbfucks ruin it.
I'll stop responding to his smug ass when I'm done being mad at his hypocritical kind
Why isn't this your crafting glam?
Well, as long as Hrothgars don't represent a risk for Ul'dahn merchant's economic prosperity, they don't really risk getting kicked out of Ul'dah like the goblins.
Because I can't afford to buy it right now...

Frontlines is great
Would anyone on primal like to do PvP or PotD 100+ together?
Dragons are also extremely emotional and have fucked conceptualizations of reality that harm their progress. Nidhogg got mad and it drove him insane for 1000 years, Tiamat felt guilty and she has refused to break out of her prison for the last 5000+ years even though she easily could. And if you look at the OF Dragonspeak thread, it talks about how because the original speakers of the language are still around it has become maddeningly obtuse and context based so that most dragons can't even figure out their own fucking language.
Deathwings back was fucking trash and the fight would've been better literally any other way.
Because I play a male character
Cope harder bud.
...
I don’t have any crafting jobs. And I’m not a female, they have cooties.
That's not where you go to actually play the game with other people, user.
Should I even bother completing the Triple Triad sections in the challenge log? My cards are so shit that it makes every match extremely hit or miss, even with the low-tier NPCs. Trying to get anything beyond a draw is a bigger timesink than expected.
Please do not use Incineroar for your shitposting autism
It is though.
Man, dragons are real fucking stupid when you look at their shit under a magnifying glass even slightly. A species literally carried through existence by just being big badasses and nothing more; like massive scaled talking gorillas.
because this is

Because I'm not a fucking tranny/sissy boy
Do you have the strength?
why are you playing pvp in an mmo?
THE POWER TO TRANSCEND
Because I have standards.
Honestly, they should have just had Hrothgar, but given them rabbit ears and called them Viera
to make matters worse, nidghogg's brood also become insane due to his song. So even if they don't want to fight, they still end up crazy despite leaving eorzea
xhe's so fucking hideous
This better be Alisae with an Alphinaud Oberon primal.
Are you on primal user? You could check and see if I'm genuine.
people will still complain about dimorphism, but its still better than what they did with having 2 races with missing genders with the same lore excuse
Really? I resubbed a few weeks ago, and have been having a blast with pvp, Feast in particular.
I used to run AST in Frontline, before the revamp, and that was fun enough in itself, but MNK in new pvp is awesome.

I have become unga bunga, devourer of Feast
Even though it's Jappo the catslut also works. She's of the A tribe.
In all honesty, probably with you getting banned. Pretty much the only way to get banned in XIV is to type something in chat.
It's too Japanese. It doesn't have the sound/feel of actual Miqo'te names. It's what I see on Balmung from lorelets every day.
the cat is a mooncat because she has fangs
I know man, I tried to 1v1 a warrior in Feast, because I thought "fuck it, its a tank and I am the fist of rhalgr". That experiment ended in tears, so now I just bully bards and whm instead
She's adopted.
WRONG. The Roe has a Hellsguard name despite being a Seawolf as indicated by the absence of black paint on his nose and the blue tint of his skin.
F'lhaminn also has fangs, but she's either a half breed or adopted. And M'naago's mother has Mooncat features but that's apparently just a case of recessive genes coming to surface. Player character creation options are basically the 'stereotypes' of those races.
XIV will never EVER have a raidboss as good as Blackhand or Archimonde
WoW will never EVER have a raidboss as good as Kael again
>lala/roe using non-meme names ever
Bara Daddy isn't a lore appropiate name dumbass
Actual Hellsguard names are actually the same as Sea Wolf names, but because of their mercenary lifestyle they translate their names to Hyuran to make it easier for their employers. It's not unheard of for Sea Wolves to do the same, so it is lore appropriate.
Lore correct names fucks you up if you ever want to use fantasia.
Man I miss the days with the old cross class skills where a Marauder could take raging strikes and blood for blood, then just chop someone in half.
this is my excuse for my lore inappropriate name. the real reason is because someone already has the one i want
I loved Ravana and you can't change my mind
It is. See >using fantasia
>not playing as the same character from the start
Yikes
nah just used the amazon promotion to buy some games i was going to anyway
They never bring back old shit. They Mogstation it up.
Fair enough
Why is this false advertising allowed?
I know man. The guy that got me into it is a die hard Warrior main, but only does ex trials. Do you have a hard time finding regulars to do Feast with?
Or just make hrothgar Dog, Bear people instead of literally another fucking cat race.
I’m going to start up the free weekend today and I wanna switch from WHM to DPS what should I switch to.
This some manga or LN shit?
>going through the 1.0 forums of OF to see how the community was at the time
>lots of people bickering about how mobs that can aggro were given an icon dictating so
Did people really enjoy memorizing all the aggro conditions in the game and whether Crab in this zone aggro'd over the Crab in the neighbouring zone?
stay as white mage and just dps
I used to play in a premade when it came to feast so not really, our linkshell used to have people looking for +1 or +2. I also swapped to healer after the pvp skill changes, but ended up disliking it even more so I stopped. I preferred 3.0's pvp honestly.
BRD
I really don’t wanna play WHM anymore.
Actually yes, that kind of thing adds a lot of depth and uneasiness to the world. Old school MMO players were a different breed who really liked to feel immersed. When you don't have wikis to feed you shit constantly and you have to either memorize things yourself or communicate with others, it really does a lot for the game's atmosphere.
are you bored of having just 2 buttons, or do you just want to kill things faster?
Fair enough. Think I'll look more actively for a pvp team. So far I've just pugged and had casual fun, but I kind of want to try and push my rank
Clearly said characters were just raised by the race of their lore correct name
Both
not really
based and wolf pilled
This is the biggest fucking cop out and I fucking hate it when I come across it during RP
Why are female Roe players so rare? They can be cute tomboys.
Solo is hell, that's all you need know. And solo healer is like an exercise in hatred. So I do reccomend trying to find a linkshell or a discord that specializes in premade feast or pvp in general, try during the start of a new season when most people are grinding their ranks out.
well, most classes have simple buttons at the start.
monk if you want shit tons of buttons, or black mage if you absolutely positively must kill
Samurai ain't bad, and you start at 50
female Roes can not be cute
I tried to fantasia for fun (with plans on going back) for a bit but because I use a lore name I felt out of place and weird with it, so I switched back in like 3 hours
haven't fanta'd since, I do play with the trainer if I want to appear as something else, at least to myself though.
Oh, I forgot to mention that the aggro-visibility was patched in later when YoshiP took over. Before that, all you had was general ranking indicators to give an idea of level-difference between enemies (since their level wasn't visible at the time).
That said, aggro shit seems useless to mask even back then since people 'were' used to being glued to a wiki (even XIfags) because of the lack of basic QoL the game provides.
*proves you wrong*
Is that a man?
disgusting
Only femroes like femroes
Lose the edgy anime hair and she looks pretty cute indeed
I already have all the dps jobs at 50 if that helps
>And solo healer is like an exercise in hatred
I can imagine. Most of my wins are when I just sit on the enemy healer like a tumor, and burst him on 50% and no one on his team makes the slightest effort to peel me. I swear I can see the frustration seething out of his character.
Ye, think I'll try and find a discord or something for a group around my own skill level, which isn't that high I think
Yeah, I remember it all. I'm a FFXI boomer and played 1.0 from launch.
>That said, aggro shit seems useless to mask even back then since people 'were' used to being glued to a wiki (even XIfags)
That's not true. The closest thing to a wiki we had in XI was alakazam and it was horribly fucking inaccurate alongside not even having pages for most things. The majority of reliable info was traded among players.
>because of the lack of basic QoL the game provides
It wasn't a matter of a lack of QoL. The entire point was to make the world mysterious and hostile so you would have to communicate with and work alongside other players.
seething trannies
The tomboy hair is what makes her cute.
stop being a shitter in pvp then
Is solo-queue healer still an exercise in the whole team running off in random directions instead of moving/CCing as a group with you safe in the rear at near-max casting range?
First thing, anyone who has run a dungeon 10+ times can tell if a run is going slowly or not.
I have enough know-how of the jobs to tell if someone's a shitter. ESPECIALLY blm since blm is love and blm is life. If I see shitters ignoring positionals or afk healing or never hitting their tank CDs or SWITCHING BETWEEN UMBRAL ICE AND ASTRAL FIRE WITH TRANSPOSE INSTEAD OF FIRE3 AND BLIZZ3 WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU EVER that's a surefire way to lose a comm.
On the flip, if I give pointers and the faggots in question shore up they're getting my comm.
What? You're the one who created a tranny for some reason. You know if you identify as one you can just make a female character, you dont need to try so hard to copy your own appearance.
although it doesn't mean that roes are necessarily bad, the other choices are just more appealing
also i can see people not wanting to deal with their colour palette
>The closest thing to a wiki we had in XI was alakazam
I used somepage before that became a hacked/malware ridden site, then eventually ffxiclopedia came to the day. Jesus fuck, how did I stand playing the AH in XI prior to FFXIAH.com. It was so fucking slow to load lists from the server. God forbid if you were an Alchemist.
I feel like part of the way to do it for a modern MMO is just give you a personal notebook to 'mark' info about enemies, like their level, aggro states, abilities, etc, but that'd just end up having people macro/borrow scripts that fill it all in for you.
I rock the head bandage since yoship is a cunt that will never give us the actual blm mask even though it has been in the game for fuckin' ever.
>WE'RE ALL BEASTMEN
>4325 potency in a second
Mmm das it mayne.
Nothing like that brief moment of confusion on the enemy team, when one of them gets 60 to 0'd in a second by no lube fisting

Fuck off Wowfugee
I vaguely remember somepage but I can't remember what it even looked like.

I'd be fine with that. No matter what you do there's always going to be some autists minmaxing it and trying to turn a fantasy world into a spreadsheet. That isn't a reason to stop making it feel like a world though.
That roe isn't mine, I just saw her and took a pic because she was cute. I know you're jealous because she's actually cuter than your c@/lizard slut, but try being a little less butthurt.
>There is no way to actually shut people down
see
It's kind of true if you go by the Garlean definition
That's not me being butthurt, that's me having functioning eyes.
cope
Say if someone had a fully working 1.23 server running in secret, similar to that CoH situation, and you got an invite to play on it.
Would you?
30-50 was a fucking slog for real. I didn't mind doing it the first time because I was still getting acquainted with the game. The second time I ran PotD until I got sick of doing that too. I don't think I'm going to level a 3rd character.
Yes, without hesitation.
I'd check it out for the novelty.
Yeah, pretty much just out of curiosity. Don't really see any reason I wouldn't.
>try out BLM in palace
>ice 4 drops an iceberg on fools heads
>fire 4 summons the fury of the sun as an explosion on the enemy
I am really, really having fun playing this job
Maybe for the story.
Having played during 1.23, absolutely.
Everything there is lore-appropriate, you reverse-sperg.
Watching people die in ffxiv always cracks me up.
Everything is so lethal people getting one shot, knocked off cliffs, people not stacking.
I could do trial roulette all day andhave a blast.
Normal Raids is even better for it.
>YOU OBTAIN THE ELDER MAGICITE
This is it lads. I can feel it. Floor 100 solo here I come.
1.23 should have been the direction the game took. There are some decent additions, but shitting on the overworld and making it a theme park was dumb as fuck. What happened to exploration and adventure in mmos? Isn't that why we're here?
When I'm bored and don't want to farm some extreme savage thing I queue for trial and normal raid roulettes over and over for this reason
fucking stop you sadistic cunts. Healers are not for bully
>What happened to exploration and adventure in mmos? Isn't that why we're here?
Nope, ever since WoW, MMOs are a genre about increasing your iLvl
You have no idea lad
>4325 potency in a second
How?
BLM is actually pretty ill-suited for PotD since everything dies so fast the other guys will probably zerg it down before you even get spun up, so you'll probably really, really, really have fun once you try some other content with it. depending on how much you like adjusting to mechanics as the main feature of your job, anyhow
Remember to kick Seymour Farias from your hunt linkshells.
The character are all named after their real life counterparts.
The Roe player is called Tesshin 鉄心, the kanjis mean iron and heart.
yea just to take pics of the old detailed feet
Literally all those skills are OGCD. Granted, Chakra and Tornado requires setup, but you just get 3 greased lightning and 4 chakras, and you got your double barreled shotgun ready to shoot a healer.
Good luck user
I would but I'd like it even more if it also somehow had the old THM and CNJ. For all the good the later patches brought to the game, those two classes got absolutely murdered.
anyone else think they should let you do frontlines as a free company? would be fun
you sure you got the spelling right?
I can't imagine the level of chest RNG you need to solo floor 80-100 due to the HP bloat on mobs in there, plus how hard mobs hit in general. I can't picture anything other than a tank achieving it, somehow.
>>YOU OBTAIN 90006
I too miss old CNJ/THM. They complemented each other so damn well that you'd want to keep them leveled in tandem to cross-class their skills together.
>Everyone at SE makes 50k a year
Isn't this that same bitch that was complaining about male viera not being added in?
Lala players are scum.
Yes, she was also fervently defending limited BLU. I'm ashamed to share a server with that psycho.
>WoW will never EVER have a raidboss as good as Kael again
Kael has been surpassed many times over by later expansions. Raid bosses are the one thing that WoW genuinely got better and better at.
pls no.
thanks man. it's my goal before shadowbringers.
I know. I've died on 80 before it feels so bad. Though I've been to the top before in a party. It feels like 80-90 is the hardest floor set, really. I may try to strech my pomanders over 20 levels. Opening gold chests at those levels is dangerous.
Worship of game companies should be an official mental illness.
>Defending limited BLU
What?
What form of music is this?
>square enix has 4300 employees
>$50,000 salary average
meanwhile in reality the xiv team is 30 guys paid in instant ramen packets and they make millions off a single mogstation mount
user there are people in these very threads who defend limited BLU. Of course the Yoshidrones on the OF will defend it.
FFTA music
>meet fat cats
>pizza music starts playing
Mama mia!
>He doesnt have pvp mounts
OH
OH NO
AHAHAHHA
nope not clicking that, don't want that faggot's face showing up in my suggestions for months
Ranger gets headpats
I do. I got the Flames Warsteed on Primal, before freelancing was a thing. I was at around 500 matches played before I got the 100 wins.
Italian wooden instrument.
>Gets filtered by spear monk.
Any opinion discarded.
What is there to do in FF14 other than collecting gear for shit you don't actually need gear to beat?
How do I get my brother to quit this game? All he does in his free time is run dungeons for 1% mount drops.
please someone give me the secret to using caster LB in PVP without wasting it because everyone just moves out of the AoE circle as soon as it appears..
Use it while they're busy so the extra brain lag makes them unable to run out in time.
its trash on its own, you gotta coordinate it with other casters
if you like collectables, boy do we have a game for you.
>triple triad
>pets with their own minigame (not pokemon)
>mounts with completion quests, ie, collect 6 and get a 7th free
>sightseeing log
>fishing
>blue mage
>player housing
not to mention most content has glamour/xmog stuff tied to it rather than usable loot
1. Aim behind them
2. wait for a stun/sleep (BLM) /heavy (NIN Fire attack)
3. don't use it unless they're very concentrated or in a choke
try to blast hiding Ninjas with it
>Admits to ONLY caring about wow and only playing that
>Is a supposed mmo expert
lol
I forgot to add, caster LB isn't only for killing. It's great for splitting up the enemy or pushing them this way or that. When you lay down that AOE, they will all scatter. You can move them to the left or right. Split them in half or cut off a few from the rest.
>Is a supposed mmo expert
Got you covered, senpai.
I wonder if all the new skills we'll get for Shad will be edgier because of the WoD shit.
>for free
>have to pay to play the game
These people really love using that word
kinda wasted
White Raven earrings disagree with you.
I do wonder what the reaction would be from the "hardcore" PVP community if they added stuff like the Gloria to Mog Station. Would they actually put up a huge bitchfit if the mount cost like, $40?
>still playing this game when classic WoW is coming out in a month
...
classic will be coming out within a week of Shadowbringers, give or take
Can never trust Yoshida but god damn was that a slap to the face of Legacy players.
>Y: Earlier I talked about Black Mage from my own point of view, but I've also seen that Garuda was always used on summoner. Originally we intended for each avatar to play a different role depending on the content and party setup. Since Garuda has the highest DPS, Garuda is used in the most content, so I think that's the main issue. If we made the other avatars stronger, then Summoner would be stronger overall, and if we made Garuda weaker to compensate for powering up the others, then the reverse could be true, so we are carefully considering what to do. It's a cute summon, but in the future you'll be able to summon a certain old man and a sister clothed in ice who's also quite cute. Although actually I wish I could copy the Mammet with the Mirage Prism.
>Q:Are those summons coming next, or will Leviathan?
>Y: Leviathan, hmm... I'm not sure whether Ramuh or Leviathan will come first (laughs). I think it'll happen when the level cap is raised, so I really can't say yet."
>Q: When will we see an update to egi glamour.
>Y: We are working on it so please wait a little bit longer.
Reminder that this was told to us around 2014 during the HW Fanfests
I can't wait to go back to the MMO I played 14 years ago but with sniveling brats who weren't even jizz in their fuck-up dads balls back then and everyone already knowing absolutely everything and 3/5 dpsers being le epic I gank u rogues.
I'll play ShB then Classic during the content lulls then back to ShB when a patch drops.
Shut up and give me your tattoo and reduce sub fees
If you haven't already realized Yoshida is a habitual liar then you aren't paying attention
Im sorry user I will sign a petition right away so you can get my Legacy Tattoo, Legacy Chocobo and 1.0 Goobue mount. Didn't want to come off as elitist after all.
We have absolutely no story details why do people assume this isn't happening
oh we'll do that. but in Role Play instances as Zenos. We're going full Musou
Because literally every new zone is on the First i.e. that's where the entire expansion takes place. If the Garlean Empire actually gets taken down in Shadowbringers it'll be mostly off-screen as a sidestory and won't be done justice at all.
>caring this much about a shitty earing from a dead version of the game
Come on now user. We're going to the First. Every single new zone is in the First.
Solus still seems to play a big part in ShB judging by the key artwork so there'll be some Garlean stuff at least.
