FFXIV:Stormblood is almost over

d

2.1 still best patch, and that's ignoring the delayed Crystal Tower drop.

I skipped all cut scenes / dialogue and anytime i mention it in the /xivg/ the trannies there have a meltdown.
I'll be skipping all of shadowbringers too
Felt like the job changes added a small amount more complexity to some of them. Not sure how I feel about the loses in ShB

Elezen do look good but you just look like a butler NPC.

Stormblood's MSQ was mostly forgettable, except Zenos and Yotsuyu who were bot absofuckinglutely terrible and actively dragged the game down in every scene they were in.

On the other hand, Return to Ivalice was fucking incredible. That's the most I've enjoyed the story since Final Steps of Faith and hands down the funnest fights in any MMO I've played. TG Cid is especially so much fun.

Would've been better content-wise than HW if it weren't for Eureka. Splitting the MSQ into two wildly different regions was a mistake and the overall writing suffered immensily from it.

Is the mod still deleting threads?

Why bother playing FFXIV then? The story is one it's main draws to players.

Only good thing about the SB is Solus, Xaela lore dump and maybe Tsukiyomi. Most of it was pretty forgettable.

The butler look is just what I was going for so thanks.

Na, they conceded or got shit from the rest of them for making more mess than he solved.

Parts of it were good, but those parts were usually in the Doman area and Ala Mhigo got shafted hard. On the one hand, fuck Mhiggers. On the other hand, I know there were a lot of people before 4.0 that were excited to liberate Ala Mhigo and they got fucked over. RIP them I guess. Some jobs got fucked hard, like Machinist, and some jobs got fucked slightly, like Dark Knight, and then a few jobs were made to be very simple after a patch or two, like Warrior. Favorite primal was Susano. Would have to pick between Yugiri or M'naago for SB girl.

Just an unrelated question. I am level 28 yet I still haven’t fought Ifrit, do you recommend that I just power through the main story quests (and only do the main story quests) and do all side-shit later?

It doesn't matter. Accepting just puts you in the cancerous Novice Network chat which you can leave or mute and you get a tiny exp boost from kills (not quests) only when in a party with a Mentor for as long as you have the Returner status (whether you stay in the NN or not). It's nothing like the 50% exp bonus from Preferred Servers or anything.

Ok, will try to fight my OCD urge.

It must be wierd to play without knowing what is going down or why it is happening.

I personally feel that, apart from SCH, MNK and DRK, most of the shit removed is a good riddance. Has any RDM player ever unironically casted Tether?
Tank stances were terrible design for this game, glad they are basically dead and buried.

Alisaie is best girl of course.

It's nice in Eureka for getting away from shit that will kill you.

Yikes

So, what is your leveling plan, Yea Forums? What class do you intend to play as to get through the 5.0 story? Are you going to immediately jump to another combat class, or are you going to start on your crafters and gatherers?

>Has any RDM player ever unironically casted Tether?
I did once by accident, since I kept it right next to Scatter.

True. It was interesting how Eureka managed to make some abilities worth using.
I remember joking with people about BLU being a Eureka-only job, and in the end, that would probably have been better than what we got.

Then I think it was 4 you were after. Vulcan ears are just pointed human, not sideways antennae. At the very lest, should've cut down the length (and therefore made them less outwards).

Going through the story as SMN, then leveling alt jobs with my wife and grinding crafters and gatherers while she's at work

GunCHAD, of course, then I'll level DNC and WHM

You look like someone who constantly gets his dick sucked but you'd rather be at home playing video games.

Honestly that's probably how they'll keep Eureka alive for the sake of relics. Bump BLU up to 70 and then say that you can use it to solo through NMs.

I like Lyse.

I'm gonna be maining DNC and tsking it through the MSQ.
Which means I'll be in HoH hell on launch weekend. God I'm not looking forward to that.

Yeah, focus whatever the MSQ has you doing and use side quests to fill inevitable gaps. If you're OCD on lost exp then you can always go through them as you're levelling a 2nd/3rd/4th job.

>Was it a good expansion?
It was ok, it had some good stuff but I hated some of the changes.
>Did you enjoy the MSQ?
Far East stuff was cool, like the xaela tribes, and we learned more about the garleans. Some sidequests are pretty neat too.
>Was the job rework good enough?
Fuck all edgybabbies that cried about how DRK was too hard for them, faggots ruined the job.
>Favorite primal/raid?
Phantom Train, Susano and Orbonne are some of my favorites, but I enjoyed most of them.
>who is SB's best girl?
Obviously Alisaie.

Get DNC to 70 ASAP so I can go through ShB with it.
I'll do crafters/gatherers after I finish the MSQ then move to other combat classes.

>not proudly displaying your superior elezen bloodline
You're no fun dude.

Good for you, man.

Story: Generally rushed and superficial, the war and occupation themes completely miss their potential. There are still some really enjoyable parts (like Zenos and Solus)

Areas: Most boring and ugliest in the game

Dungeons: Quality over quantity, the best in the game

Trials and raids: I loved most of them. Savage hit a sweet spot difficulty-wise for me, and most of the fights are really well designed (there are a couple of sucky ones though, for some reason the second fights of every 'Scape are noticeably lower quality). Ivalice is easily the best 24-player raid series so far.

Job design: Compared to HW and speaking in terms of how fun they are to play in my opinion, some jobs became better (BRD, AST), some stayed on the same level (BLM, MNK), some became worse (SCH, WAR). I'd say the overall quality stayed about the same. BLU was added in a blatantly half-bakes state

Eureka: Awful at first, but became pretty decent further on. In the end it's a good addition to the variety of content

Gonna log in (logged out in Gridania inn), unlock GNB, equip the shire gear (and maybe glamour the free level 60 gear), try out my rotation on dummies, and start the leveling grind.
Gonna go through ShB as a tank. I switched from DPS to tanks when there were rumors that either BLU or the gunblade job would be tanks, and I got what I hoped for, so I'm going to play it first to 80 for sure.
Probably gonna level MCH or DNC next just to have a pocket DPS and because both look cool.

Could this be Angela Aki singing?

An actual pseudo-endgame for BLU in the form of Eureka might be nice for sure.

>Eureka: Awful at first, but became pretty decent further on. In the end it's a good addition to the variety of content
Do you realize how much resources that took away from other content and how many people quit playing because of this trashheap? Do you realize that nobody will ever do this content again as soon as Shadowbringers is out while every other relic is still farmed to this day? God I wish I could fucking kill you right now you damn cocksucker.

I'm sticking with Monk til 80, playing through the story with it so that i can get a feel for the changes. If I'm no longer having fun, I'm switching mains to MCH.

I just want to main my favorite job but I don't think it will ever happen.

I enjoyed it far more than the other relic grinds.
I agree that using so much development time on it was probably a mistake, but on the other hand they managed to make new type of content that actually works. I think that's more valuable than one more dungeon per patch

So cap uncapped is for like 24 man raids/randoms on map?

Shouldn't it be illegal to make a commercial about something but then not once show what it actually is?

Would you accept a BLU that learns its moves through level up like everyone else (though they'd still be monster abilities)?

God I wish that were me.

>Do you realize how much resources that took away from other content and how many people quit playing because of this trashheap?
Really? All we truly lost was a couple dungeons, and in exchange we got Ultimate, Eureka and Masked Carnivale.

Yeah, BLU learns skills differently in every game anyway. I'd prefer though if they used the system currently in place with the job quests requiring you to learn a spell on your own before accepting. Then you could have the hunting aspect and the job quests would fill the same role of ensuring you have a skill.

Oh I agree, that'd be optimal. I just think if it ever became a "real" job they'd probably restrict it to level up spells. And I'd be fine with that too.

>but on the other hand they managed to make new type of content that actually works

Attached: 1560776174226.jpg (1445x1440, 590K)

Personally (I'm ), yes.
Although there is an alternative way too: make them start at 30 with a basic skillset unlocked, and then make it so that as you level, you unlock new fights in the Carnivale, and you get all your spells from there.
If they are afraid of trolls going in without the spells, lock you away from duties until you catch up on your Carnivale fights.

Based, I can't believe how anyone can defend Eureka.

Do you really care about a handful of dungeons that much?

Your friends are retarded. Do it at your own pace.

>how they kept trying to make us feel bad for her despite her being absolute scum
They never did that. When she's dying you don't even get a dialogue option that isn't filled with spite. All they did was explain how she got that way. Her getting amnesia was for Gosetsu's plot development, not to build sympathy for her.

Ready how?

Looks like a Butterball Turkey stuffed in a bikini.

You have ten days, probably more than enough to get through SB, especially if your friends help you with queues.

Yes as we all now Eureka is beloved by all in the FFXIV community.

The entire Tsukuyomi fight is framed to make you sympathetic toward her, with things like images of her parents attacking you. And she doesn't deserve that sympathy at all.

More than ten days, honestly. Normal mode raids won't come out until the 16th, and Savage raids until the 30th. Even if you aren't at ShB when the gates open, you can easily get your ass geared before savage hits.

It is indeed not beloved by all, but it is still content that many people liked, especially once Pyros dropped.

BA was trash though, massive disappointment.

-It was an ok expansion. Lower quality than HW.
-Fav primal was extreme Shinryu
-Sadu of course.

And then when the fight is done your character continues to look at her with nothing but scorn. The most sympathetic dialogue option you get is 'Gosetsu will be sad'.

Well, I prog'd it with the group that eventually got Primal first and I had a ton of fun.
If you came late to it and had to go through the discord trannies I guess I can see how you wouldn't like it.

I’m wrapping up the MSQ right now, going to do Ghimlyt Dark tonight. Combining both the ShB trailers and what I’m seeing in-game, here’s my basic understanding
>the First needs our help, whatever the WoDs and Minfilia did wasn’t enough
>only spirits/souls can travel between worlds, which is how the Ascians move
>someone outside our world is pulling the Scions’ souls from their bodies on our end and bringing them over there
>Crystal Tower seems to be connected to the whole thing, so I’m assuming the Allagan cloning facilities are making bodies for the Scions’ souls to occupy on their end
>Thancred, who was yanked first, has been over there for quite some time and that’s why he seems to be the most settled in their world and is already getting stuff done (adopted GNB/found Minfilia/”this town sure has changed”)
>on our end, Matoya’s soul is residing in Y’Shtola’s body while she’s on the First, hence why whoever is possessing Urianger’s body addresses her as such
Am I close? It doesn't explain why the voice talked about time compression or who is in Urianger's body, but it seems to address the basics.

That scene takes place in Rak'tika, on the First. Those are just Y'shtola and Urianger themselves.

It was consistently better than HW's and ARR's. And no, 2.5 sucked dick because almost nothing that happened there mattered in the end. All 3.x had going for it was 3.3 and even that had the huge retard moment of tossing eyes off a bridge.

it was framed to make you pity her, not sympathize. The whole ark was really.

Then why does Urianger call her "Master Matoya"?

No.

You can't know what else they would've done. Could be just 3 more dungeons, could be something else entirely.

it's a title, not a name
because she swapped to black magic and became a wtich to fight against the light

>You were never supposed to feel bad for Yotsuyu
This. Yotsuyu was the irredeemable cunt who enjoyed being a cunt that you have no pity for. Contrasted against Fordola who was the misguided cunt who did what she though was right out of despair. The whole point of the two was to show that just because you have a shit life doesn't mean you have an excuse to be a cunt once you realize how wrong you were.

I liked all the different solo instances they put into the MSQ, especially letting us play as other characters.

>Was it a good expansion? Did you enjoy the MSQ? Was the job rework good enough?

no to all. Was the Azim Steppe portion written by someone else, because it was the only good part of the MSQ

Alchemist.

It was led by a different writer, who's supposedly at the helm for ShB's MSQ.

Azim Steppe was written mainly by the woman who did the majority of the Dark Knight quests.

I just thought it was something like him musing out loud and Yshtola quipping after hearing it.

They've been tight lipped about it, so we don't know.

How are PLD and WHM going to fight on the first since they use Light Magic?

ah, that explains it then

Yes, but speculating on hypotheticals leads nowhere.

>the huge retard moment of tossing eyes off a bridge.
To be fair, that's like tossing something into the Marina Trench. It's pretty reasonable to think something down there is gone forever.

Yes, she also wrote pic related and is doing the Shadowbringers MSQ, which is one of the reasons people are actually excited.

We know as it's been stated in interviews. At least in regards to BA, which came in lieu of a 3rd Ultimate.

The same way BLMs fight Ifrit: The magic of handwaving away inconvenient shit.

As I've repeatedly stated, you personnally hating the content does not make it bad content. Yoshi-p has stated multiple times that he does not design the game with the intent of having everyone love every piece of content, and you aren't the audience for Eureka, which is okay.

Viera is going to only get "some" hairs that other races can use, mainly the paid ones. Hrothgar though are fucked and locked to face type so only time you get new hair you'll get a new face possibly.

It would have been easier to justify it had they lingered on the moment and try to come up with a solution first, then either toss it off the bridge anyway or something else similar. Instead the scene comes across as being rushed in one evening's worth.

>It would have been easier to justify it had they lingered on the moment
How? It was an incredibly emotionally charged moment and Estinien is Aymeric's best friend. You wanted Aymeric to put his hand to his chin and calmly think, "Hmm... well... what should we do...? Umm, hmm... well there are Ascians, right...? Uh, well they can get anywhere anyway so... uhh... hmm...........................
CAST THEM INTO THE ABYSS!!!!"

What's a fun melee dps? just realized I don't have a sinlg one past 30. I like MNK's greased lightning but everything else looks absolutely fucky later on

Actually, casual players are the audience for Eureka. You know, the kind of player that doesn't often post on forums, and whose opinions are often ignored, hence why all the places where people discuss XIV think that Eureka is almost universally hated.

I don't care what others say but from personal experience trannies are the ones who barely play the actual game and rather just chat all fucking day and emote at each other while grinding something in a big train, so exactly what Eureka is basically.

John Crow was the one who changed Haurchefant, and if you watched his dev panel he comes across as incredibly arrogant like he's too good for this video game bullshit.

GNB and DNC start at 60.

I personally know of at least 2 tranny discords who absolutely love Eureka and sit in there all fucking day.

I'm going to be starting this fresh when Shadowbringers comes out. I want to play a Hrothgar, should I start now, and change later, or just wait for 5.0?

Why not? The relic is inferior to raiding weapons until the raids are obsolete, it's the perfect reward for content aimed at casuals.

Guarantee a large portion of the players in Eureka were only there for relic and hated the whole thing anyway.
They can talk about target audiences and participation rates all they like, it's only half the story. People will do shit they don't like if the carrot is good enough to them.

They should have called the expansion Lightbreakers.

You've got a good deal of MSQ to go through if you're not skipping anything.
I would start now, and use the free fantasia you get on switching to Hrothgar when the expansion releases.

Aww shit get hyped for the Panda Express crossover raid
Dont get hit into the Beijing Beef!

What's the best way to level up a secondary job and gear it up?

You get a free Fantasia potion to remake your character during the Lv50 part of the MSQ, just hang onto that. You probably won't get that far before Shadowbringers is out anyways.

Just wait 2 weeks you faggot.

HoH is pretty straight forward, you just need some luck and knowing the general strats. It might take a couple of tries but it's doable.

>the scene comes across as being rushed
So it did it's job then. It's a fast stressful climax. They finally managed to beat the piss outta the baddest Dragon enough to subdue it and rip its soul from it's host. A feat that took the the damn WoL, boosted by the second baddest dragon, and the souls of Ysale and Haurchufant to do. You dont even know if the eyes can be destroyed because the expert was recently mind fucked and cant answer questions atm. But you need the eyes gone and fast before they possible take control again. So off the bridge they go.

>he still has his job after the Haurchefant debacle
How?!
Yoshi had to personally intervene because he went against orders and sneaked in his own retarded changes without consulting anyone. His dialogue didn't even match up with the cutscenes, it was so sloppily done; Haurchefant is making exaggerated body movements, the camera is going everywhere, the WOL has an extremely worried expression, yet the english dialogue is about border security.

I don't know much about modern Japanese society but I assumed he had been executed and replaced, not given leave to continue writing for the game.

What do I queue for to farm these? Just the specific instances they drop from or are any of the roullettes good for it?

You are either gay or a woman.

Yet it's ok to hide critical lore behind raiding like they did with Coil

>I'm sick of Final Fantasy armor in my Final Fantasy game

Here’s a revolutionary idea: why not have both?

Raiding doesn't take weeks/months, that's why Normal/Savage is a thing.

I'd appreciate more Akihiko Yoshida designs. Fantastical, but still grounded.

It would probably be something along the lines of the monster hunter crossover, like hunting Rathalos but this time it's some big wraith or vampire or wilderbeast. Could also be something with the wild hunt attacking somewhere, and we encounter Geralt or Ciri. We know that Ciri jumps between worlds, she even hinted to the cyberpunk77 world in the witcher 3 so that's the in game explanation.

eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/special/mogmog-collection/

They made raids normal/savage so everyone can see the story now retard.

There are quite some more realistic looking outfits in the game, not sure what's your problem.

I just started the game, is there any point to doing all these busywork side quests shit is extremely tedious

Just fought Ravana, and goddamn he's a massive upgrade from the ARR bosses, does that trend continue further into Heavensward?

>contrarian
Overall maybe, but in these threads no. I even replayed the story on my alt and I still can't understand why people like her.

>all melee dps got a bunch of positive changes that make them feel better to play except monk

Thanks Yoshi

The first two geyser walls have two packs between them. They were doing 3 mobs at a time.

Not him but Hrothgar look like complete shit on plate armor
Stick to robes, leather, cloaks and basically any open or revealing armor pieces

Every few packs, not every single pack. They'll grab like 3 of the 15 available before the wall and think they're awesome.

Many monsters would make a good witcher fight. They did pretty good with the leshen in MHW. Speaking of, a TW3 boss could maybe 4 man content like Rathalos.

Wild Hunt

Does Godbert react differently to (You) when you meet with him in the Gold Saucer and haven't done Hildi's quests?

>A majority of people can clear raid content in a few hours.
Fucker, even just the people who do raid a majority take months to clear. And there's even more who cant because they suck. So yea, both lock lore for a demographic. At least Eureka literally anyone can do with time.

Unlock Crystal Tower if you hate low level dungeons and MSQ that much, it's still easy due to everyone having ridiculous ilevel, and most being familiar with mechanics, but it's still more involved than the other two with wipes being possible bar Syrcus, and gives two mog times a pop

How do I play WAR properly?

That's stupid because even an afk scholar's fairy is enough to keep alive tanks who are """"Respecting""" the content, and a tank at 50% health while the healer spams AOE is much better than needless over healing

Whenever I heal for roulettes I throw an excogitation and toggle Sprint then run past the first pack once the tank has aggro, all but the most braindead get the idea and go wall to wall

Yep, that's what it means.

Yeah just put on some shitty crafting gear and dye it and make sure every other slot is filled with something it doesn't matter what.

Yes, you just need stuff equipped in every slot, the woolen dress gloves in your hand slot, and the chest/boots dyed soot black.
The way the scoring works is that you basically get like 4 points per equipment slot just for having anything equipped there, then bonus points from there depending on how well it matches the "theme" and like 2 points for the correct dye.

I honestly felt like Fordala was a worse character then Yotsuyu. Yotsuyu had no intention of doing anything good while Fordola did but still chose to be a cunt until shes been beaten and tossed in jail. I don't understand how anyone could have sympathy for her, she let everyone step on her then decided to be "good" because she lost. At least Yotsuyu was a cunt till the end.

You dont actually get to talk to them or even see them in the overworld, but right around the time you take over the bridge some cutscenes will linger on them skulking about. Then right before you head off to the Peaks for the second time one of your companions says Arenvald has been sent to deal with them and you never hear about it again until the post-game quests. He captured them and imprisoned them off screen. You dont get to visit them.

>Mainly because it spoiled the fuck out of mechanics etc. making savage prog that much faster and having that much less to learn. Kinda half kills wanting to do them blind.
That would be an argument if Alex and Omega didn't have at least double the mechanics per fight compared to the relatively(!) piss easy Coils. Sounds like fearmongering to me.

Why does Minfilia get to have them and not her

Because they don't consider women fully responsible for their own actions. They are viewed and get treated as a kids basically. Of course that is not as prominent nowdays, but it is still a cultural thing.

It's so they can push people through in two large waves to hopefully avoid the game shitting itself. Pre-order people versus off the shelf people.

Do we even know why they gave a shit about Ala Mhigo because I'm pretty sure both of them aren't Ala Mhigan?
