What's the most 'fun' RDPS job currently

The one you enjoy the most.

I can't ever tell if these replies are intentionally unhelpful or not

...

Something as subjective is fun is impossible to guess for another person.
Personally I hate BLM because I hate being stuck in place, someone else will love BLM because they love huge numbers and big spells.
How the hell would anyone be able to determine what you find fun?

No, he just created a perfect, breathing simalacrum of his city from that day that you can interract with. Hades was playing the role of Emet Selch in the council of fourteen and was one of the people responsible for moving the plan of summoning Zodiark into action

>STOP TALKING ABOUT VIDEO GAMES SO WE CAN MAKE WAIFU WORSHIP AND TWITTER SCREENSHOT THREADS RIGHT NOOOOWWWWWW

Stop responding to him, he's in every thread trying to bait the (you)s

Because there's still general opinions about things. Would you tell me playing video games isn't more fun than sitting in a waiting room because fun is subjective?

>Speedrunner confirmed

If you took the time to talk to every one of the ayys you would have heard some of them mention Emet being part of the main council which held the highest authority no way he was a child. Also those ayys weren't just memories. It was implied that they had the ability to manifest consciousness into reality. Each ayy was a free thinking entity. The Ascians are demigods who can shape reality

Any ASTfriends who use nocturnal sect?
I just got it and noticed you can't switch stances in combat so it feels I will always go diurnal since the regens are really convenient and the aspected benefic mana increase of nocturnal really turns me off.

New New York

Nocturnal is in a pretty bad spot atm, its even worst then you get Celestial Intersection, which gives you a oGCD Aspected Shield if you're in Diurnal. The shield from neutral sect also stacks with everything so its to Nocturnal's version, albeit on a cooldown. Basically, Nocturnal needs some work.

Using this as an OP should make immunity from hotpockets.

I use nocturnal during boss fight, or when I'm with a whm.
Mostly because aspected helios is incredibly useless as people would always overheal pass the regen anyway. With a WHM, they can fare better with keeping the tank alive themselves, so I'll focus on protect the team with my shield. If you're in dungeon just use Di.

I have never gotten so hyped from a JRPG since this moment. I can die happy.

Don't forget:

Emet never lied to us when he was with us and was actually disappointed when we couldn't handle the light.

So how long until they release Shadowbringers soundtrack?
I really want the main theme, and tomorrow and tomorrow in high quality

Of course he was. He recognized us as his former best friend and wanted to be best friends again. He would even forgive you for being the one that summoned Hydaelyn and shattering the world.

Shadowbringers' plot is exactly what a top tier JRPG should have.
FFXIV shows that Square still has plenty of talented people, but everything else they put out is just a huge mess.
It's baffling

Yoshi has an eye for talent. Soken was just the sound director before he started having him compose tracks and today we have the next Uematsu pumping out track after delicious track. Ishikaawa is also probably the best writer in the whole goddamn company right now. Either Yoshi is luckiest man on the fucking planet stumbling onto these gems or he has a knack for seeing people's potential.

"FUCK NIGGERS"

Sorry, user. Either watch the video guide or get kicked

they added two furfag races this expac

SOMEONE QUEUE FOR DYING GASP NOW

That and canning all the forever unfinished shit for the burning money pit called ffxv definitely gave them more money to throw around.

I haven't heard one person, literally not a single one saying that wow 8.2 is bringing them back into wow.
They're either leaving for ffxiv or quitting mmos altogether.

I have to wonder how the people at actiblizz is taking it, being dethroned as the king of mmos.

>spent 40 minutes in queue for Dying Gasp

I liked the Titania music when I did the trial but then I looked it up on youtube and wasn't feeling it. Guess it just fits the fight.

It's downright sad to see how empty Soken's list of work was before FFXIV, who knows if his talent would have ever came out if it weren't for Yoshi and this game

How do I deal optimal damage as a RDM?

Gridanian WoLs, dont forget to dig out your monoa mask for future use

is going GL4 better than just staying in fists of fire?

It's WoW with the focus shifted from gameplay depth to presentation.
It also has a huge amount of soul and care compared to current WoW

at 80 you swap to wind the GCD you can get GL4, it is better only at that point
You also don't do it during your opener because the FoF bonus damage is better than GL4 there since you don't get an extra GCD with GL4.

I kinda like Zenos, but I really hope he won't be the main bad guy at any point anymore

Who /machinist/ here
The rework is so good and I'm so happy

I feel like his being a moderately good antagonist in a shit expansion and people liking him as a result of that influenced the writing team's decision to keep him relevant for longer. I can't help but think he's gonna be the main bad guy again - at least for a few patches, given the build-up they're giving him.

Tell me about SMN

it's shit

Where BLM is the POWER caster,
SMN is the SPEED caster.
Play it if you like complex rotations and a lot of buttons

I'm fine with ShB DRK in most respects, but holy fuck synced down below 70 playing it is an absolute trainwreck. TBN is such a huge part of the kit and DRK crumbles like wet toilet paper without it to lean on.

Is it the fastest job alive?

It's okay.
I just wish HB animation lockout was shorter.

I love it, but I feel like something is.. missing? Like there's something we aren't seeing.

That's NIN

I really wanted to like hrothgar but their animations are awful, they stand all hunched over and their walk animations are terrible. The "running while holding two handed weapon" animation is particularly ugly. They're pretty cute during pose animations since they actually stand up straight, but for actually running around and playing they look awful. The fact that there are only four faces and 8 hairstyles (which are also locked to the faces) doesn't help either. It feels half-assed as hell. I used my free fantasia to tour it for a while and see how they looked in my gear and with my jobs' animations, but switched back the next day. I just want a furry race that isn't a big hulking hunchbacked neanderthal.

Do Viera also have hair locked to face and can't use hair styles?

It does feel a little barebones compared to what it was before, but I still love it and I'll take it over SB MCH any day.
I would like if they brought back the regular and heated versions of the main weaponskills, maybe heated shots would activate at 20+ so you want to save up 70 heat before overheating instead of 50. Something like that, I don't know I'm not a designer.

Just anything to make it keep some of the feel of the original but still stay away from all the bad.

SMN has at least one of the most complex optimal rotations in ShB

400 DPS class more like

>72 skill is mediocre at best
>At 74 you get a little bit more of mobility
>76 is the only flashy improvement
>78 is 33% more ninki generation
>At 80 you get a shitty clone that only copies weaponskills for lower damage

Any pictures of the armor sets from the later dungeons? Did the first three and haven't really been feeling them. At least not the Tank ones anyway. Weapons have been pretty good though.

We have Zenos too

Only the Tempest version as far as I know.

I wasn't using the trusts in the first place.
When I level alt classes sure, but I just look at them as something to bypass the queue as dps or if you just want to play alone.

That said, I don't see the need to cut them off.
It's not like you're canonically going into the 71 dungeon fifty times with them.

Not BLM, that's for sure.
They erected the cuck shed, threw scholars in there and set the place on fire for shits.

Why do I give a shit exactly?

Even the fucking pose was there. Then the summoning pillars show up and I just nutted holy shit.

Since Emet-Selch was Hades
I'm predicting that Elidibus is Lich

SAM has been open to a SkS build since SB.
Might not have been quite as optimal as Crit/DH but it was boat loads more fun IMO.

Going from DRK & PLD, I just can't go back to not having circular two-step AoE combo. A cone into a circle just feels lazy as fuck. I just fucking hate cones in general. It's why I don't play MCH either.

eScape is a remix of Azys Lla's theme, so it's basically the Allagan theme. Most of Allag's tech was reverse engineered from Omega.

Knowing what WoL is, do you think they have a chance for a happy ending, or are they fucked?

>regular cat population unaffected; if anything there's an increase in catboys
I'm not surprised, but it's a little weird.

the song is about wanting to return home, since it’s about Omega’s endless testing in an attempt to find a way to travel back to his home. They probably went “yeah this theming sounds about right” and remixed it into the Crystal Tower because it’s now a time travel device.

Wait so our actual Graha is in the tower as well?

Every viera player looks the same its insane, everyone is practically a palette swap.

I leveled AST to 70 before the patch notes came out on one character and then from 57-70 on another after
Aside from obviously the cards being completely different, the only difference I noticed was that you have to pop gcds more because both regens have the same cooldown and treat collective unconsciousness like an actual healer CD rather than only using it on damage spreading mechanics to look big brained.

Yeah, as you might have seen looking at some threads ect everyone is pretty much floored with how good it turned out to be.

Nah. There are some passing similarities in the structure of the song but nowhere near enough to say that it's a remix.

So far it seems like Ikishoten should be used directly after Hakaze and Senei used during trick attack so when you used to use guren.

Thanks mate. I don't remember the first plot point in the story. Is it in the side quests?

I love how the people on the different maps, especially the ones that you encountered, actually matter.

That fucking giant talos was hype as fuck. Feo and Amaro calvary was hype and funny.

>Play GNB as first tank

I understand that healers keep everyone alive and DPS actually kill the monsters but I personally feel useless. Sure I keep the monsters at bay but my damage is really lame and I can't heal for shit. I don't think my brain is wired for MMOs.

when you're on the bench waiting at the DMV, Emet's friend talks to you for a bit, and notices that both you and Ardbert have the same color soul, and that he thought he recognized you

The construction happening so quickly was some major bullshit but it was still cool as hell.
I was hoping they'd call it the Giant of Babil.

why do ff14 bros get so defensive when anyone says anything negative about their game?

Thank you for answering. It's got my interest peaked. I've been replaying City of Heroes ever since the expack came out. I kind of missed having a collective experience with people.

I might have to try this out. I grabbed ESO a few weeks ago during the E3 sale and it just did not grab me.

Sounds like tanking isn't for you brothetr. Some people feel guiding the monsters is more important than healing or killing them, some feeling killing them is more important ect.

Play whatever is fun and enjoy the expansion

Your work as tank is mostly finished a few seconds into the fight with how tanks works now with the enmity ability. Rest is simple fight mechanics.

WILL YOU FUCK OFF

I wish they were really trying to kill wow

God these npcs are fucking slow.

I see. Makes sense. Thanks.

>several cutscenes will play in sequence.

I'm enjoying my time with this game. I've always balked at the mmos taking the roman numerals but this honestly feels more ff than some of its single player counterparts. It'll probably be a few more weeks before I actually reach shadowbringers but I don't feel like I'm in any hurry.

>people actually thinking titanias theme is good
what is wrong with you weebs?

possibly. he might also just be crazy

What this colossal faggot was probably asking is "what is the most broken / overpowered class" just remember this is the type of retard you might be queuing with.

Depends on what the negative thing is. Most of the negative things we hear are about the GCD and ARR fetch quests. We've heard them a thousand times before.

The GCD fixes itself around level 30-50 depending on which job you pick and yeah some of the ARR quests just kind of suck and have to be powered through.

If you are interested you can play for free up to level 35, it shows a decent bit about the questing ect. Combat starts out slow but becomes fulfilling enough imo once you get some levels and skill to use.

shadowbringers is the best ff game they've made in like a decade, it's very good and worth waiting for

It's because he transformed into a primal juiced up on nidhogg's eyes and centuries of prayer and you still fucked him up.

I mean, it is kind of nice that people recognize that the WoL/WoD is still just a man and not an immortal god slayer.

The bit about creating Hydaelyn is speculation based on the 14th member of the council being separate from the other 13 who make up the ascians, WoLs on two different worlds having the same soul and the possibility that the survivor of the lost world is the same. Also everything turns out to revolve around you anyway, so why not this too.

eScape is Azys Lla

Really? I thought it was a bit more omnious of that, it still kinda questioned me two expansions later. He seemed less spooked on getting defeated by you but more that he knows you.

What if The Twelve are the ones who created Hyaedalyn, and you happen to be the one you chose during character creation

The best villain in the game. You can't even blame him. He's a way better Ardyn imo.

Although what was he planning with the WoL if things went differently?

>Expansion 1st trials are easier
Ravana says hi.

Innocence is piss easy, but Titania gives weapons.

Blame Yoshi for that one. Can't tell you how many times I hear a fucking healer whine that they were nerfed and to check reddit for proof they can't heal big pulls any longer.

titania so you get your weapon first

>than any
Probably not. But it is still pretty great.

DRK is actually nowhere near as bad as I thought it'd be. Even with 1 combo you have so much bullshit to keep track of that it still feels very active. Maybe it'll get boring once I get used to it.

Oh I misphrased it, I meant that more in terms of who was it between the two that summoned Hydaelyn, assuming it's not some newly introduced character

It is the best FF story since at least X in my opinion, if you don't count some parts of XI anyway.

You're supposed to like being called a healslut.

Any bets on one of them being [Anima

you can't even pull that big anymore, all the new dungeons have like two pack pulls at most

I did Tit EX first but FC member said Innocence is piss easy, even easier than Tit which is already easy.

there is basically no reason to ever use nocturnal ast because diurnal is more mana and gcd efficient, which means more time DPSing. The only time to use it is if being full health isn't enough to survive an attack, which it almost always is.

For what it's worth, DRK are really pleasant to heal. They seem like they're literally unkillable in dungeons.

I forgot to mention that they started that during SB.

>It'll probably be a few more weeks before I actually reach shadowbringers

I wish I could play it all over again, enjoy it user!

The biggest pull out of every dungeon is the triple pack in the 79 dungeon. Shit's fucking HARD to keep a tank up.

>spoiled tanks now need to deal with DPS queues
Sure it's temporary but man is it nice while lasts

I enjoyed it way more than XV but that's a bit of an unfair comparison.

I've recently got DRK at 80 and I'm still not sure what the optimal opener is. I always end up using my MP or Darkside bar way too soon and end up not having enough to use Fray.

It's mostly because of TBN. But for DRK who don't know about it...

>spend the last half of sb leveling and gearing tanks because i wanted to try them out

I doubt we're going to be introduced to any new Ascians at this point. Most of the top-tier Ascians are now dead and it's essentially been revealed that the most powerful Ascians are/were Lahabrea, Elidibus and Emet-Selch and we've killed two of them.

He was tired of fighting and wanted to take his daughter and let her die in bliss in Vauthry's "paradise". He raised all the previous Minfilias and loved them like daughters. He was the anti-Thancred.

He thought he was right and we were wrong. We proved otherwise.

He's an old man who has fought Sin Eaters his entire life, and has trained various Minfilia's throughout his lifetime, only to watch them die and see how the Sin Eater problem just never ends. He is tired of training a little girl just to watch her die and tired of fighting a losing war.

I don't think Amaurot will stop giving me chills. Just the idea that something major happens and then their fear fucks them completely over to an insane degree is pretty disheartening. The monsters look downright disturbing even for palette swaps

WHM here
Laughing.

Proving my theory all healers are whiny, fickle, fags.

I got MCH to 80 and really like it, what should I level next?

ShB is up there as one of the best FF stories for sure. That said, it's not hard to top mediocrity stemming from XIII and XV. I didn't even like XII so I'll add that there.

An expansion did what mainline FFs couldn't.

Which GCD do NINs actually apply TA now? Still 5th?

eh i'm still playing sch because I don't trust anyone else to heal efficiently

it's boring as fuck but it's still stronger than the others

don't blame ast players for dropping it though

Cooldowns on all your abilities, making sure you have enough MP and Blood to do whatever you need to do as efficiently as possible without overcapping. DRK is essentially the oGCD/resource management tank and its GCD combo is basically filler.

I haven't had any problem with queues as a tank except for Expert roulette, everything else is pretty reasonable. Having a glut of tanks and DPS and shortage of healers is only to be expected when there's a new tank job and dps job and no new healer.

You need to get 80 ninki for the shadow clone before you TA. Your opening Suiton gets eaten for the ninki and then you use the one from tcj to do the trick.

Lahabrea is going to return somehow.

Amaurot was an amazing dungeon. You'e got Emet narrating while shit is going down, the music feels kinda hopeful but with a tinge of sadness. The dreadful shit all around you? It's actually one of their best designed dungeons to date.

It is the truth, Alphy is an artist, and if there really was a "Main character" it would be him.

>swapped from dps to healer and loving every second of it

Tanks use ACT too right? So how do they measure how good they are? Is it how much damage you take?

At least I was kinda right.

I actually did answer that just so I can see Alphinaud react.

Don't forget the most important detail:

No these are comparable, it's not a case of SAM not knowing what to do or floor tanking, all of them lag behind by about 1k consistently

How though, he was an unbroken ascian like Emet-Selch, he doesn't have other reflections that could take his place. It's possible that a new Ascian could take the "title" of Lahabrea but it's not really the same thing and he would have to be less powerful because there are no other unbroken Ascians.

The 6th, which was a flood, likely the shard had an overabundance of water aether. There might be some stuff in the lorebooks about it, but I think a few bits and pieces are from the HW Alliance Raid quest line, since all the Mhach stuff was during the War of the Magi, which ended with the 6th Umbral Calamity.

The only thing you care about in XIV is damage, as any role. The best stat is the one that lets you do the most damage and Tenacity has the weakest scaling, probably because it also boosts defense.

Yep

It was funny and endearing both. Alphy's become quite the wordsmith.

The Sixth Calamity was water, in which the War of the Magi overused their magic to the point of completely tipping the aetherial balance of the world. In lore, magic is connected to the water element.

Be honest anons, are any of you disappointed? I loved the story but I think a lot of people were expecting something very different.

You use TK as a finisher below 1%, but yes it's actually useless now with 6SS and Anat existing. Even FoE has more merit than TK in it's current form. I was surprised how many 6SS opportunities there are in the EX fights though, kinda like it

Alrighty, thanks for the info.

Don't compare you dps to the healers or actual DPS classes, compare it to other tanks.

SSS is actually usable? I'm still iffy about it but I just finished the MSQ a few hours ago and want to destress for at least a day before starting the EX trials.

TK is garbo. Its use cases are so incredibly rare that you may as well just take it off your bars.

The Wind calamity is a mystery, but the Moogles have some vague memory of it shredding the Floating Continent above the Sea of Clouds.
The Lightning calamity was caused by pollution in an industrial world causing horrendous lightning storms that drove people underground. Lightning is associated with industry and creation.
The Fire calamity was caused during an age filled with religious wars and witch hunts, and for some reason the sun came closer to the world and scorched the planet. It's the reason Thanalan is a desert. Fire is associated with justice.
The Earth calamity was caused by overloading the Crystal Tower with a powerload from Dalamud it couldn't handle, which caused worldwide earthquakes. Earth is associated with growth and change.
Ice is a mystery, but caused an ice age.

How far back was XV canned though?
Might have dumped the extra all into the marketing since much of the expansion groundwork would have already been finished by that point

Self-cast TBN is really good and literally pays for itself because when it pops; it procs skills that cost the same MP to use manually. So the best way to pull is to constantly put TBN on ourselves which is basically 3-5 seconds of invincibility every 15 seconds.

Is Yshtola brown?

Healers were drama queens before this expansion and we're just now seeing it en masse. But that's a good point you bring up. They raped both roles and made them less fun. I can't imagine leveling ANY job with how shitty some of them are at low levels. I want them to buff healers back up a bit because cutting their fuckin' wrists is stupid. With a smart healer and tank damage still isn't an issue.

By being a good MMO while WoW continues to burn they are contributing.

Minfilia actually died though.
I swear if they bring her back.

>People thought we would have to turn on Hydaelyn
Regarding what Emet said, Hydaelyn isn't exactly "good" either. We'll probably figure out more in the patches or another expansion.

>People thought there would be hard decisions, moral dilemmas, and major character deaths
Yeah. I guess. However, It was a nice dark fantasy journey though. I wasn't a too big of a fan of the woods but everything else was pretty great.

Get your mind out of the gutter

>MNKcucks mad
MNKs are 3rd so they aren't that mad. They are mad though about the removal of certain oGCDs. And to be honest, I feel them. Contrary to what people expect though they aren't going to the shed though that's for sure.

if you've seen dororo it's probably exactly like this

Thancred should have died. He had the perfect dramatic end to his arc. He has no reason to be in the story now, he's only still around because he's the only tank trust. Not having him die was a wasted opportunity for an impactful narrative moment.

Akademia Anyder's music is so good and captures the pending plight of Amaurot perfectly

Feels good man

Technically Minfilia is actually dead this time, and the expac does set up the possibility of killing Hydaelyn if she were actually summoned again

Can't this faggot do anything right?

I'm new and can't pick a job for the ARR leveling process. I've got Gladiator, Conjurer and Pugilist all at level 25 but I can't decide on one to commit to.

So who won from each role?
>PLD
>BLM
>MCH
>DRG
we can agree, right?

Emet is literally tempered by Zodiark who got his ass kicked by Hydaelyn so his opinion on her really shouldn't be considered

The fact that they made me actually give a shit about Y'shtola for the first time ever speaks volumes.
It helps that her new outfit gives me a raging erection

I don't know. I'm okay with him dying or not dying. I feel forcing a death leaves a bit of a bad aftertaste.

They're probably going to build up Elidibus as a major villain but it's going to feel so dumb when he's already lost to both us and Zenos.

I like Y'shtola less after Shadowbringers. She's a huge cunt.

I backfilled into a fight in the beginning of Sunken Temple of Qarn and instantly died from the three enemies. Then I noticed the healer was a fucking Level 35 Conjurer. Then I saw their gear and lost all hope for humanity. Their max healing was about 102 HP per Cure II. We made it to the second boss before vote abandoning.

It seems like they bleached Yshtola

DRG
NIN
SAM

Her being a huge cunt is far more preferable than her being the most bland, inoffensive waifubait possible.

Don't worry too much. Once you get it to Rank 20 you can have everything.

Why there still isn't ilvl restrictions of MSQ dungeons is beyond me

Nah I think it was fun he's alive. Urianger foresaw that shit would be happening that's why he left. To get more healers just in case.

Thancred's speech was gut-wrenching though. He really kept that guilt building up inside of him for years. That final cry (which I presume he says "I love you" was his final goodbye to Minfilia because he knew she would never come back. I loved it.

Bro. You buy reagan peppers with Allied Seals, they cost almost nothing. Don't use Company Selas.

LNC upgrades to DRG at 30, you get jump then
Every class is pretty shit through the first four MSQ dungeons/Ifrit

>using GC seals to buy pepper instead of 20 mother fucking allied seals
Fucking WHY?

Is it possible to pick up this game again if I haven't played it since a month after (re)release? Is the amount of catching up one has to do monumental?

>"Our strongest sorcerer just died at the hands of WoL, what should I do about this?"
>"I know! I'll try summoning more WoLs! Noone ever tried that before."
Imagine surviving death of over 3/4th of your race, seeing rest sundered and your world destroyed, only to find out that the only two others who survived were Lahabrea and Elidibus. Hades deserved better.

Ranged or Melee DPS?

el ogro de la noscea

Imagine being an Ascian and trying to create something but you keep remembering that stupid eme your friend kept telling you about the ass with a face or something, and it indirectly interferes with the creation process as you give rise to an ass faced monstrosity.

Because in the FFXIV world if we go with the theory that there's only one timeline since there's no reason for Graha to go back in time anymore given that the 1st's rejoining never happened, crystal Graha shouldn't exist anymore, since he's still here, there's multiple timelines, one for every living being, that's why Graha comments on the fact that since he's still here, he probably didn't save the world he came from but only ours.

The jesters are the first's versions of Lyse and Yda

Whats the dps tier list

You can lvl them all so just pick one you enjoy more. There's a shortage of healers right now if you want easy q's.

what do you spend seals on

>She's a huge cunt.

How? Because she talked shit to Thancred? LIke she said, she hold him in a higher standard so while she feels she overreacted, it's not like what she said was out of malice.

She's been in the 1st for like I forgot, 5 years? 3? Anyone would change a little by then. I like her more now than before. I miss the thigh-highs though.

>You can lvl them all so just pick one you enjoy more.
Not if I want to advance the MSQ at a reasonable pace.

My favorite job > Shit > Your favorite job.

Pretty fitting since Lyse is a clown too.

for Company Seals I usually buy ventures, cordials, glamour prisms, or dark matter.

Elidibus will prob just go full crazy after all his failures and attempt to btfo everything if ascians can't have it. Zenos and WoL will broup for a minute to sotp him and then have their final duel. Screencap this.

God damn, I rather take a bot at this point.

That's why he simply begs you to remember them. Because he knows the dream is dead.

She is just bitchy and full of herself.

Yeah there are some inconsistencies with what she can and can't see. She can read books and translate tablets but can't see the sky but can notice it when it goes dark.

Why didn't they just build a giant umbrella?

How does the city still exist after Hades kicked the bucket?

It takes like two weeks to get through Stormblood from level 1 without skipping anything with only going close to full-NEET mode on weekends. ARR is pretty shit besides 35-50 and the bridge between it and HW is as long as a full expac but with literally zero direction until you get to Shiva

crystal is so shit

>implying he doesn't want to make (You) whole by feeding you your other shards and then suck your dick

Like I said, how?

I would agree about her being snarky. But bitchy and full of herself. Now that's just pushing it to "what the hell are you actually smoking" territory.

You can pay for skips but I don't see why people complain about catching up(besides ARR being kind of bland). Just play the game and enjoy it otherwise you will be at the end like the rest of us with nothing to do as we wait for trickiling content.

depends on how much time you are playing
a NEET could probably no-life it in a month

Ink and tablets have aether in them. She can see that. She can't see the night sky because the aether of those stars is too far away.

What if ditching Zenos' body and letting him find about Zodiark Hydaelyn shit was actually intentional?

she may be like alexander. the ascians imbued her with a will to protect life, even emet said that. she may be trying to be hands off as not to cause more trouble.

Are we sure they're the 'original' Lahabrea and Elidibus? It's never indicated they aren't, but I need a reason for Elidibus to be so headachingly retarded. They honestly can't build that fucker up as some real big bad guy.

But it has Balmug, the best server.

Unless it's addressed directly, there was an off-handed comment about how it will fade away in time

What opener are BRD supposed to use now?

Man, I hope the short stories they release outside of the game have something to do with what the scions were up to while they were in The First without you, or some of the side characters.

Yes, Emet tells you that himself, Lahabrea, and Elidibus are the only three people that survived the sundering.

There are usually 8 side stories, so I wouldn't be surprised if 4 of them were Alphinaud, Alisaie, Urianger, and Thancred.

Nigga I was saying just level one and come back to the rest later. It's not like you have to completely make a new character.

>Elidibus is all about muh balance
What if his now plan is for (You) and Zenos to eat Hydaelyn and Zodiark and then kill each other?

As a DPS, how geared should I be before trying EX primals? Who has the best tutorials for them?

what job will be the posterboy for the next expansion?

Because the Amautortite creative magics are the same thing as primal summoning. Theirs just comes from their infinite internal aether so it doesn't need to drain from the planet. The city is essentially a primal.

hope they invite the msq writer back for yoshi's final expansion

I wonder how Eden actually ties up with the main story.

some new class, NIN or MCH

Gunbreaker or Machinist.

>Waging a hopeless struggle for years, just waiting and waiting to see your friend, your ally, your hero, the WoL.
>He finally shows up
>"tis good to see you again, friend"
I was expecting Alisaie to outright burst into tears and tackle us when we show up. They could have at least been a bit more emotional about it. I'm so sick of not being able to interact with the NPCs in cutscenes because of the different races. I'm pretty sure the only time in the entire game where your character visibly touches an NPC in a cutscene is when you hold Haurchefant's hand.

Dancer

I hope a Paladin. Just because I can't ever see a ranged DPS or Healer being the poster jobs.

Can't be NIN. They won't make another Asian themed expansion...right?

Any gear you want. I seen people go in there with no gear. MTQ or Happy if you're gay.

>I was expecting Alisaie to outright burst into tears and tackle us when we show up.
Yeaaaah, Alisaie will never do that. Although from NPC interactions she does keep on mentioning you.

And this basically kinda confirms she has a crush on the WoL right?

I hope not man.

She always comes off as annoyed at everyone (because they're dumb and she's smart) and has an air of smugness.

Gambler.

gnb, probably

You can get 80 Ninki by the 6th GCD, I don't see why you want to wait for the 12th.

I'm guessing it's either gonna be sin eater/flood of light related in some way, or it'll be something like Omega that wanted to come here and restart life somehow. I think I'd prefer the latter but I can't imagine how it'd work.

Eden's design could fit in with the cthonic horrors they were going for with the final msq dungeon. Perhaps a taste of things to come, or perhaps it is the source of the light corruption.

>She's visibly upset whenever Feo Ul is on the screen and starts doting on WoL

Attached: 1555534757412.jpg (500x436, 39K)

Yeah. Tesleen implies it and Alisaie gets super embarrassed. Also when Feo Ul dotes on you after you drive the Eulmorans out of Il Mheg, Alisaie has a jealous look.

The Eden plot is going to be about restoring life to the barren empty lands outside Norvrandt. How Eden itself actually fits into that is anyone's guess.

? No she doesn't. It looks like you're projecting real hard user. That's unhealthy.

i dunno either, take it up with the balance autists

They said in the live letter it would involve WoL using their imagination. So it's something to do with the creation magics.

>I don't see you as complete people, so it's not murder when I kill you

Not verbatim, but my favourite line from Emet. It's not an insult or threat, it's from his POV simply a matter of fact.

It ks effectively the same opener minus the removed skills however the opening song depends on the subjects; single party is WM kcan get 3 charges max), MB for multiple targets (as you will charge Apex a hell of a lot faster as each enemy dot counts as its own stack)

It hits even harder because he almost finally saw WoL as one at the end of the line.

Absorb Hydaelyn maybe?

He was going to accept you as a possible successor. He talked about how he had been living among humanity since the sundering hoping they might succeed his people but that they were too broken to do so and he lost hope.
