Let's talk about the newest expansion for the videogame FFXIV. They went all out with the advertising this time, has there been an influx of players to make it worth all the money they spent?

Dunno but I loved the expac
I have a good feeling this sold far more than SB too
>road to fucking 70 now instead of just 60
holy shit
which crafter/gatherer should I level up first? like which gives the best cross class skills or has the most usage
parsebros...
Its in such a great state that the devs though they'd get divine punishment if they wished for more.
It's cool bros, I don't think you necessarily need to level up all the crafters anymore. Let's see what cross class skills you get:
CUL lvl 15 for Hasty Touch, which is pretty sweet with Steady Hand II earlier on. Later on when you get good gear you can stop using this.
Other useful crap:
Weaver lvl 15/50 for Careful Synthesis I/II (III isn't even a cross class skill, so maybe you can skip these).
Leatherworker lvl 15/50 for Waste Not I/II (I is easier to use).
Alchemist for the CP skills, which are okay.
Blacksmithing: Ingenuity I/II (lvl 15/50 again) might be needed when crafting very high level recipes.
Anything I'm missing?
>you get warned for this webm now
NIN or MNK for savage prog? is mantra valueable?
Thanks for helping me with Eden, Warrior of Darkness.
Waste not II
Muscle memory
Piece by Piece
Innovation
Ingenuity
Careful Synthesis II
Comfort Zone
Are all regularly used still. You may be able to drop PbP and MM with their new caps: I can get more than 1k from a Careful Synt III + Ingenuity, but I'm not sure if that'll last throughout the expansion. Comfort zone doesn't sound like much, but it is pretty damn good for min-maxing. As for Innovation, not sure how the shared cap with inner quiet will play out, but it will probably still see use.
So really, you still need everything 50 except CRP. That's assuming you're min-maxing, of course. If you just want to make some food or potions for yourself or cash on the side, you can almost definitely get away with the base skills and some HQ mats.
i'm dumb and wanna make minions and primal weapons and I guess food
>there's a cutscene for showing the windup g'raha tia to g'raha tia
Which Eden NM mechanics won't show up in Savage? Which will be entirely different from their NM counterparts?
Half of Voidwalker's attacks felt like they were missing something, so the fight will probably be some perfectly timed party-wide dance tier shit.
Minions/glamour don't need to be HQ, so MM and PbP are your best friends until you have enough craftsmanship to outpace them. Ingenuity is also nice if you're making new (ie. at-level recipe) stuff. Really, though, you shouldn't need them so long as your gear is up-to-date, but they're still nice to have.
As for food you can usually get some HQ mats for cheap, combined with specialist shouldn't be a problem making your own HQ food.
Right. I feel like you could get away with skipping some of the jobs though, or at least skimp through with only 15 levels in everything which is basically nothing. If nothing else, like you said you could also use some HQ mats to make up for it.
Just hitting big Preps under high Inner Quiet instead of finisher is real good. So Rumination is actually pretty desirable and Waste Not more than it's been in a long time.
>out of character
boring
>If you vist him post MSQ you can call him by his name
>He gets flustered as fuck
He is such a precious cat.
Expect to need to get pushed by Titan into certain places.
I just don't like the game anymore I don't think. I was bored with stormblood around when blue mage came out. I capped him and just... I didn't feel it any more. I bought shadowbringers, I capped out my main job and I don't want to play anymore. It's just tiresome, play for a day or two, cap your shit, you're done. Repeat ad infinitum. Even worse, you'll eventually hit a point where there's nothing left to do but unsub. I guess for newer players or more casual ones it's alright but I have 30+ free hours a week, and I played them. I had every single class and job at 70 (besides blu obv) before shadowbringers came out. But now that I have a few at 80, I just don't want to play anymore, it feels like the same shit.
how do you guys manage?
>accidently get hit by leftward landslide
>it pushes you back but not by much
they're going to do some bullshit just you watch
Stop playing. If you don't have fun, stop and come back for patches or expansions.
That one's obvious, they're going to remove the telegraphs and rename leftward landslide to larboard landslide
That's what I just did, but I don't even have fun with the new content anymore. It's all so similar, it's been the exact same for the last 5 years.
"Driver's side landslide."
That's fine then, don't force yourself to play something you don't enjoy anymore. There are plenty of other games out there.
It's time to move on.
Do you think the crystal exarch's dick is like rock candy?
>Even worse, you'll eventually hit a point where there's nothing left to do but unsub
That's literally what Yoshida wants you to do if you feel you've exhausted content, then comeback when you feel theres enough worth subbing for
The crystal tower is the exarch dick.
He traveled to the past, thought of the WoL, got an erection, chopped his dick off and voilá. A new home for every survivor from the calamity.
Eden Prime is definitely going to have a completely different phase after his ultimate.
The ticking clocks will almost certainly not be there for Savage Voidwalker.
Leviathan's Tsunami is going to be far more complex.
Is DFAssist really safe?
jaehyuk-lee.github.io
Apparently, you can see which dungeon you'll get when queuing for a roulette.
>The ticking clocks will almost certainly not be there for Savage Voidwalker.
Pretty sure they will but we'll most likely be faster and you'll need to combine them with the stack, spread and pushback.
It really did feel like they were all just repeating the same mechanics with no actual phase changes besides Titan.
I almost hope Leviathan permanently destroys the middle and each head has to be dealt with by the split parties.
I can see them removing some blocks so when he zooms around you need to be pushed back to a specific block or fall of.
I meant the indicator for it will not be there.
I'm talking of the indicator. The indicator is just your typical acceleration bomb marker reskinned with a clock motif, considering the dice appears on previous savage there's no reason for it to not appear on E2S.
>actually going to Times Square
Fuck tourists and fuck New Yorkers.
Mantra has it's uses, but I think MNK is the better pick for prog this time overall when previously it would've been NIN due to it's easier rotation. If your group is all physical dps then MNK by far
MNK is much easier to play and if you use only 1 magic dps in your setup will probably equal nin in contributed dps
>Searching for pixie floss bolls...
Hey guys, does my miqote look alright?
I fucking hate WVR and the insane amount of materials required for it.
That's data that's sent to your client for a cross check, yeah.
Dunno about this tool in particular, but if you comb through the data ACT picks up if you use Network parsing you could check it manually as well.
>cash shop glamour
no
Yeah, I don't know why she bought it either.
Sup bro nice miqo-- oh shit
All face 1 suncats look like whores to me
SE won't leave AST in the gutter right? It's safe to level it up to 80 and wait for buffs?
More the crafts myself.
Oh this craft needs 3 cloths. That's 3 crafts that need 3 crafts each. Oh and you still need the other materials for the rest of the recipe too.
Even leather is just one craft...
To be fair, all cats are canonically whores
Healerchads get all healers to 80 and can play all of them well
And yes, wait for next Tuesdays 5.05 patch
It feels ok at endgame and I think they should prioritize card duration > healing potency > damage potency for buffs.
Not mooncats and especially not Zhloe Aliapoh
I don't think they'll ever let a HW situation happen again.
Only the suncats are whores, mooncats are just thieves or retards
currently doing the samurai quests
hes a bit of a white knight isnt he
Zhloe is a dirty smelly uneducated pineapple whore. I want to make her do degenerate things just for another serving of pineapple pudding
why are these SHIT textures still allowed in an mmorpg in 2019
Who would you pair him with?
Nero would be my choice
All of them, except CUL who have lost their most important cross class skills
Because this game was released in 2010.
Stormblood
Why the FUCK are we leaving the resistance and splitting up to go to YOOOOOOO land. Shouldn't we stay and help them more then ever, seem they just dropped a storyline for anotherAlso I'm level 70 Bard, are Allagan Tomestone of Poetics still being used to buy shit?
Myself.
To be fair these are texture back when the game still needed to run on PS3.
You'll hate it for sure. But it's the cost of optimization.
Myself.
since ps3 isnt supported anymore why dont they bump up the textures for at least ps4 levels?
Is there voice acting outside of cutscenes in the new expansion? Are the new zones uninstanced? Does everything still look like plastic?
spaghetti code and laziness
Probably 6.0, they've already mentioned the intention to do so.
Because it's coming out on switch.
Former WoW player. Skipped ARR and just got to shadowbringers content. FFXIV is better in every conceivable way. The OST for shadowbringers is so damn good.
Poetics are used for everything that's not current content
>skipped ARR
Should i save side quest for second job ?
the idea is that by starting 2 seperate revolutions it'll force the garleans to divide their forces
but to be honest all that really matters is beating zenos since you find out later he basically single-handedly stopped the doman revolution, meaning even if you did win militarily you'd just shit on everyone so yeah they basically dropped it
im getting royally fucked on the SAM lvl 55 quest jesus christ
Don't fucking tell me you bought skips for Kinoward and mehblood?
>skipkek
Disgusting dont touch me
How long ago were new worlds added to NA? I want a fresh start
>Skipped ARR
Good choice
>consistent purple parses as DNC
Feels great man.
If you want to sure. Quests are usually slow for levelling and are mostly flavour for the world to add more context or expand lore. Levelling a second job is faster exclusively via dungeons and FATEs
Any tips on how to get better at DNC? I'm doing decent right now but I feel like I can do better. Is Standard Step > Devilment > Technical Step > Flourish > spend procs/fans a good opener?
>consistent purple parses as monk
>but detailed page says parse is orange with all data from last two weeks
LET ME IN
>purple parses with the 430 weapon
all the egirls on this job are so fucking bad
So long as you're doing standard step when the fight starts and not pre-pull like 80% of DNC, yes
>tfw consistently orange in ShB now, up from purples
I know it's just ex trials, but did all the good healers fuck off to other jobs?
They all switched to WHM
Post BUNNY CUNNY
I went from never touching extreme primals or raiding at all before ShB to purple so that's nice.
I am a WHM
Using it pre-pull if you have a 30+ second pull timer should be optimal though right?
most switched to whm, some stayed sch, everyone dropped ast
...
>die twice in hades
>still topped dps
>cutscene isn't as impactful anymore because you just jobbed like a bitch
fug....
Guess it just shows how many healers dont DPS in the first place?
I suppose, but I've never seen a timer longer than 20 seconds and even those are rare
How do you think she's getting such amazing deals despite running an orphanage in bumfuck nowhere? That cat's spreading her legs for anything with coin. She probably had a gangbang with half the Maelstrom to get that cabinet deal.
Why do I get the feeling Hildibrand is going to lampoon the fuck out of the entire Amaurot story? He’s going to be revealed to be an ex mystery nigga too.
>Can't make gatherers actually fun to use then people would farm their materials! Better keep it cancer!
What changed?
>Fishing retainer
>Make millions selling the clams she brings me every hour
totally worth it
Hopefully when WHM gets nerfed, all the good WHM go back to SCH or AST and my parse looks even better
canonically my wol bullies her into loving yuri every time i bring her things
HOLY FUCK this samurai fuck onthe ship i cant beat him lads he fucks my shit up ROYALLY
It's not changed which is why it's still cancer.

You might be undergeared, some job quest instances are impossible if you dont have a certain bare minimum, but usually that means you didnt pick up any new gear at for in the past 10 levels
>consistent green parses as dnc
feels good just to clear :D
Prog Ultimate
July 2019. I am forgotten.
but samurai starts at lvl 50? this quest is lvl 54 and hes pushing my shit in deep
no thanks it's not really fun
>don't parse because of self esteem
>whenever I do great no one is ever parsing
>whenever I fuck up tremendously there's someone parsing and uploading it
FUCK
The job starting gear is trash.
I parse because I want to self-improve. Playing DNC I would say parsing is required so you don't pick a shitty partner and not know.
where do iget new one then? vendors have jack shit
Yugiri is cute!!!
Prog it
Driverslide
After the Heavensward double Astrologian reign i honestly wouldnt be surprised if the class just gets to be in the shed this entire expac. They really never put out meaningful changes to classes at all outside xpac releases
Ironworks.
no :D
Bros... I'm starting to regret the bunnypill
I checked my fflogs a few months ago and apparently I have a 99th percentile BLM parse in Rabanastre. I never parse 24 mans so thanks random parse guy, couldn't have done it without you
Trust me if you stay for around 600-800 hours you'll start straight up getting pissed at how much shit they DIDN'T copy from WoW
Game has shit PvP, hilariously bad tickrate, terrible movement animations and slow as fuck attack wind-up animations
>WoW player
>DNC partners to DRG
>meanwhile MCH and MNK are both faster and outdpsing the DRG by a wide margin
Who the fuck is making DNC guides? I swear to god the idiocy wasnt there the first week
Switch to a Raen girl
>in Rabanastre
change back
you and every other bandwagoner
she has like stuff for level 50 ilvl 120 and the starting sam g ear is 115 almost no difference and she has no weapons...
Who's the idiot here? They've checked it and it's better to partner with the best dpser.
>Healer parses
Lmaoooo who the fuck cares wooo you got more crits on your holy spam than the other guy so fuckin skilled bro
Switch to a XAELA girl
>ew ra
>trials are all purple with some blue and the rare green or grey if someone fucked up mechanics leading to death but still didnt result in a wipe
>the ONE dungeon parse is a green even thought it's all aoe combos and buffs up in large pulls
literally who the fuck parses dungeons and how the fuck did I land in green
>Tfw took the hyur pill
Kinda weird how non existent they can be. I get surprised when I see a party full of hyurs.
Football play plans are more complex than this trite
>ew ra
DRG is not a better partner than MNK or MCH in pugs. In your static where your DRG knows what he's doing? Sure, but not in a group of randoms.
>the smellqote is at it again
Take a shower
A well crafted Hyur is godly though, there is a reason they are the master race
>trying to encourage someone to start HRT

Fucking adder faggots, guess I'll finish up in feast then.
Good job adding a bunch of BUTS to your original statement. All guides should be written to assume the worst conditions. Yeah. Obviously.
>ew ra
Started playing this game last week for shadowbringers kino
Two questions I have..
1. I play WHM. How much DPS should I be doing in groups? I have holy now but I'm kinda scared to stand there spamming it in case I get aggro and people yell at me.
2. When do I get to h ug her?
You might be able to get a single match before 5.1 rolls around!
>Keep outdpsing my static's tanks as WHM
I can tell both of them are kind of annoyed on Discord
Imagine not having your titty weapon by now
More like the expected conditions when DRG is supposed to be some godly DPS this expac, but if you check the logs it's always premades with the numbers and all the others might as well be playing SB with their poor performances.
>I have holy now but I'm kinda scared to stand there spamming it in case I get aggro and people yell at me.
Holy stuns enemies which means it keeps them from doing damage. It's both damage and mitigation, so you should use it at the beginning of every pull until enemies become immune.
I didn't say femroe
I’m a new player trying to get into heavensward and honestly this is some of the worst main story shit I have ever seen. They had me:
Help the scions pack and move
Run perfume on a chocobo
Play hide and seek with kids.
It’s terrible, all these fetch quests are cancer, tell me it gets better bros...
I had a 22 win streak in 2 weeks with maelstrom pugs up until this point.
If you get aggro, your tank is literally AFK. It's impossible to rip hate off tanks now.
It gets better. One of the first things that happens in Heavensward is your new dad giving his sons shit for trying to assign bullshit tasks to a hero.
Whatever placebo makes you happier about your pathetic personal Dancer dps I guess.
anyway to see the numbers of HP of enemies instead of just a bar?
Switch to the Hrothgar master race.
Isn't that to be expected though?
And then it gets worse. The game is constantly poking fun at the fact you're a fetch bot. It was endearing at first, now it's just annoying.
Yeah, ACT lets you do that.
ACT has an option for it
yeah the new player numbers for months up to the release for the new expac was absurd. the new expac was absolutely a success
i just wish the game was actually fun. it's a massive shame how completely casualized the gameplay is. everything else about the game is fantastic in terms of quality
You completely butchered the english required for this post but I can sympathize bro
and ACT stands for...
you can show it in game in % ACT Advanced Combat Tracker will give you exact numbers that don't matter
this stuff? looks bad i wanted the numbers in the original health bar
Tanks should be out damaging WHM at all percentiles, but they're not outdpsing me.
5 FUCKING HACKERS STANDING IN EACH OTHER AND THE QUEST GIVER
WHY THE FUCK IS SQUARE ENIX NOT DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THOSE TELEPORTING FUCKS
ffs
you can turn that off, disable the ffxiv overlay top right of the screen
Man something in this game is pushing my 1080ti to 70 degrees
You can edit how it looks, it's not that hard
You can customize that brainlet-kun
so it looks like the original bar but with health points?
Are you retarded? Or just baiting? Or maybe you just don't know fflogs exists and think no one can call your bullshit?
which castrum dungeon is the fastes way to get those stones of poetic or somthing
How about you try doing it instead of asking us
Make the background transparent, pick a font you like, move the numbers wherever you want them in relation to the normal XIV target bar.
Correct brainlet-kun
well this doesnt sound like what i want
He's right though, with the exception of 99th and max percentile funnily enough. Stop being bad at tank and look at ex trial stats
>pajeet angry no one wants to ride in his smelly cab
With a sub and a cash shop it doesn't really matter.
Why don't you check fflogs yourself greylet
They got me to buy the expansion and resub via agressive shilling on Yea Forums and because blizzard is shitting the bed harder than i've ever seen any conpany do it before and both of those are free. So whatever money they spent on advertising was a waste as far as im concerned.
Because you let everyone die faggot
Myself
Imagine being shit at videogames
>resub
The advertisement wasn't aimed at you then, idiot
do you mean the main scenario 8-man from ARR?
castrum meridianum is the fastest
but ideally you don't want to do either of them
You can tell if it sold well, they would be screaming from the rooftops about sales numbers.
They aren't.
You mean this one?
>Max
Seethe
You mean where 100% of 99/100 parses are padded by dance partners, drg tethers, and card feeding? Actual.Fucking.Retard.
>be maelstrom
>only 24 man for days
>Adders and flames destroying us because prime targets
3v3 was a mistake.
All tanks outdps WHM from minimum percentile up to 95th percentile. WHM beats outdps DRK at 99th percentile when everything is padded to fuck user
Someone fixed the spelling error? God bless
>he isn't pushing 99s
shitter
>Wowfag jannies got so butthurt about Shadowbringers being kino and BfA being fucking garbage that they ban people
kek
Well I have 98s, it's close!
Fuck off faggot!
That's him, that's Boardwarden Janny!
What was the original error?
So WHM is better when everyone is on equal ground thanks to padding? Thanks for proving my point idiot
The version I saw last said Aabandon near the end
Not bad user, in all honesty its a mix of luck and good buddies to scrape 100s anyways, sometimes you just get fucked by mechanics on certain fights, so if you can 98 you can 99, you got this
Fuck Yangxia is a fucking great area, the vibe it gives off really reminds me of shit like HL2 or Xenoblade Chronicles.
The walls look fantastic and with how big they are and the valley theme this area is maximum comf.
But they'd be on equal ground at equivalent percentiles
My static's DNC doesn't want to pad me because I give him fuck all esprit. We don't have an AST either to pad me
Wouldn't 99th mean a tank is getting buffed by a DNC?
Sounds like you have a shitty static that you aren't friends with
Nothing cuter than a fluffer class thinking his own dps matters. Laugh at that pathetic dancer.
Is spamming ghimlyt the fastest way to get to 71 besides roulettes?
Cool! Enhanced GP regeneration II!
>Still slow as fuck.
Cool!
The DNC is selfish but nice to get along with.
>got some 99s back in sb
>every once in a while i'd open an fflogs tab and masturbate to them
>then everything got invalidated, buried a few months later
was it really worth it...
Do the 69 dungeon. 70s give shit xp
what are you? monk or blm
sam and nin give the most apparently, good
No, Abania is.
How did notChina remind you of Half-Life 2?
>not chain chugging hi-cordials
Fates are fast if you have the earring. You get some stones to trade in for items as well
This whole post chain has been about whether WHM's outdps tanks (they don't until 99+). I'm obviously playing WHM
So WHM would still be better? They're both getting pads
With chain chugging you mean once every 3 minutes right? That's not chaining that's necessary to not get cancer from gathering.
All those toxic yellow pools and textures likely.
Healer dps is a meme. If you parse orange as a healer you're either in a static and don't need to heal and therefore can get away with dumb shit like spamming ass on cd or you're forcing your co heal to basically solo heal every fuck up in publics aka logs where the WHM parses orange or high purple and the SCH parses green with more than 50% of the healing done.
>tfw 99 tank and not padded
>balance buffs
>eye
>partnered
>TA is up
ok this is epic
Of course I'm in a static, I'd never want to play with shitters.
why is the caestrum almost destroyed? nobody atatcked it
For the anons who still can't clear Innocence and Titania EX, explain yourselves.
it's fun being 5k dps ahead of the rest of the party
Because the garlean structures and walls give me the same uncanny/ominous feeling the combine structures gave me back then.
Can't really explain it but it helps when it's night.
>Titania
I lost interest after waiting too long since now it's all WATCH A GUIDE.
I haven't entered Titania EX yet
How to fix DRK
-AD spammable again with an MP cost or buff its cure potency
-Make Living Dead actually useful by being invuln to damage while in Walking Dead so healers can actually heal you to full easily
how easy is it to tank low level dungeons with max ilvl gear? in dps wise
lol
Sure as hell feels like it. Leveling WHM and I see so many sprouts running around. I'm sure a number are vets, but it's pretty common for me to find a triple sprout dungeon.
>trick attack+eye+litany+piercing debuff+slashing debuff+foe requiem+embolden+royal roaded balance
it's funny how trannies throw bitchfigts every time FFlogs tries to separate real DPS from buff padded DPS because it would turn 90% of oranges into blues
God I hope NG+ fixes Preatorium. I hope they let Gaius be the last boss and put Ultima as a trial with slightly easier EX mechanics. Give Thordan more health whilst they're at it.
DRK is fine
I hope their DNC partners to someone else. Just say you're doing a parse padding run at that point
DRK is playable yes, but that doesn't mean its where it should be.
>want to get friend into XIV
>he's not into the aesthetics
H-how do I get him to endure ARR? Which is easily the most generic FF story it's ever been?
He's willing to give it a chance but I don't know what's the best place to be at lv30-because free trial.
if I was a DNC i'd join and deliberately not partner with the BLM
I never do EX fights during their expansion lifetime; not worth the stress of dealing with shitters.
game is shit. hell 76 is way better than that shit expac lmao
>buff it's cur potency
What? It's already much stronger than it's DA version from before. You can get 3/4 of your health back from a full pack of mobs
Buy him a jump potion and story skip.
No one brings ninja, it sucks.
Not really during the expac I still miss Yugiri and Hien. Also the secondary Scion too.
>story skip.
Absolutely not. Though ARR with an easy way to breeze the story would take a load off.
And slashing and piercing and roayl road dont exist anymore, point is that it doesnt matter what jobs suck, they will still be demanded for parsing.
This is what happens when you're a seasonal waifu and not a based husbando.
I just did some trials with this guy and he died both times so I'm 100% certain he wont upload those logs despite being fed cards and having a DNC partner as well.
That makes no sense. How can it sell more than Stormblood when you NEED Stormblood to have played Shadowbringers?
>BLM gets partnered
>still beat him in dps
it's a good feel
Never pug high end content
>Still pretending to know the meta and thinks parse runs matter, not speed
Hon...
Oh look it's another retard who doesn't know how Living Dead works. DRK is fucking strong right now, it doesn't need right now. If you had to change something just increase darkside to 15%
>joins party
>sneakily hits Ungarmax bind
>Edman Cho gets blacklisted from FFLogs for trying to upload his padded run
lol
I know how LD works, doesn't mean its a good skill compared to other invulns. The fact that you can take damage in WD is retarded and pretty much makes Bene necessary for it to be useful
>it doesn't need right now
Guess I'm retarded too. It doesn't need any buffs
>nin gives the most esprit
as it should be
Speed runs are for the people who would be orange if no buffs existed at all, the actual 1% of the raiding community. The rest just want pretty colors on their logs and dont even know how to read them and use them for dickwaving
THOSE CUTSCENES ARE FUCKING LONGGGGGGGGG
Yangxia reminds me playing the PS2 Romance of the Three kingdoms games.
No you clearly don't know how it works if you think you need Bene. Go play WAR, DRK is too big brain for you
me on the left
>N-NO ALWAYS PARTNER TO MCH AND DRG, THATS WHAT FOX SAID IN HIS DNC GUIDE SO IT MUST BE TRUE
MCH or BRD, which is more fun?
Please explain your answer.
I hope Garlemald isn't just a snowy place. We already got ISgard/Coerthas, we don't need another snowy region.
this shit is unacceptable in 2019
>play a FF game
>complain about cutscenes
Do you also complain about being raped when you go down a dark alley
MCH. Guns are cool and bows are for homosexuals
Just admit its the worst tank invuln and we'll agree to disagree on everything else
Yes? No one in their right mind would partner with a TA bot though.
What type of Reshade are you guys using?
Going for those not Russia aesthetics. Can't stop thinking of basically the same location in Tales of Graces.
???
Not true, I and 2 FC mates made a "Blind Party, No Discord" pf for innocence and cleared it the same day, people are willing, you just need to offer.
Superbolide is pretty goddamn bad.
Yes user zooming in on something completely always gives the clearest image.
its not zooming in, this was taken from a cutscene
Stop playing tanks if you don't even know how your skills work retard, you're just being a hassle to the rest of the group
Garlemald looks a lot more like Narshe to me
You mean yourself?
>no one in their right mind would make their own damage better
seethe, monkcuck
don't force your friend to play something he doesn't want to
he's gonna quit and you'll be sad
Newfag here, just got to 50 and am giving RDM a go. Seems pretty easy and is fun, but is it useful in parties
Extremely easy
It has an instant rez, so yes
I require more responses
t. uses it at full hp
t. desperate DRK unable to admit his invuln is bad
WARbros???? When are we getting buffed?
Look at class videos and pick based on which skills appeal to you more. Fuck off faggot fun is literally subjective, I can't know what is fun to you.
Bouncing between no time and not enough. But I squeezed a Innocence EX so I'll squeeze a Titania EX too.

Nerf incoming
He wanted to play because of how much I do. But I still worry because it took me half a year to complete ARR initially.
I prefer it when XIV does something original over fanservice. I know callbacks and nostalgia are its identity, but it just works so much better when it creates something new and memorable. If I wanted upscaled remixes, I'd just play Dissidia/World of FF.

Finished the ARR MSQ today. Are the expansion stories better? This shit put me to sleep until the Garuda trial more or less
I said Narshe not a fucking iPhone rpgmaker shit stain abortion screenshot.
HW is good. SB is meh. ShB is great.
Stay mad and blue sweety.
I'm sorry I just picked at random
I never played.
yes
Cool. Is the fuckton of patch quests leading up to HW worth paying attention to or is it just mild setup for the expansion?
The amount of fun you derive from bard HEAVILY depends on how smart your party is. If the tank is doing baby pulls, or people aren't spreading damage so your dots have the most uptime, you're kind of gonna wanna kill yourself. That said, when you do get an actual smart party bard becomes BIG fun.
MCH on the other hand felt clunky to me, that said I only played it up to 60 and play with 250 ping at all times.
If you managed to endure the 2.1 - 2.55 MSQ, you can endure the rest of the story for sure.
>here is your launcher bro
OH NO NO NO NO NO
What do we think of Mizzteq?
Shut the fuck up Pifon
soul
Who?
As a BRD main which is just now trying MCH. I'd say MCH is way more fun. That is if you have the ping to play it. Playing it at anything higher than 100 ping is asking for hell. BRD is also a bit dependent on ping but not as much as MCH.
Its a great launcher for 2001
Wer?
I don't get it
>supposed to be making a lot of money
>cant even upgrade their launcher UI from 2001
>The amount of fun you derive from bard HEAVILY depends on how smart your party is
That's true for every job in the game
It's, uh, it's better than PlayOnline at least.
Garlemald was always described as a cold inhospitable region both before and after the Empire's rise.
Mild setup, honestly you can skip most of it. It mostly introduces of develop the crystal braves and your best bro Illbert

story of ARR is pretty shit
>destroy bestias
>Oh destroy ultima weapon
did u rike it?!
makes mistakes like most guide makers but at least keeps things much more concise than someone like Mr Happy, and is better to listen to IMO. I remember getting so fucking confused listening to Happys explanation on the Lakshmi EX fight 2 years ago despite it being the simplest shit ever because he just wouldn't shut the fuck up and saying "chimi chonga" instead of "chanchalla" cause he thought it was funny. I'm pretty sure that confusion affected most people I was pugging with at the time because it took forever to clear. Since then I've just avoided him.
>getting Trustees to max level lets you glamour them, like squadron members
>except Ryne

>can save password

I don't see why it matters so much. Do I need some kind of over designed graphic to log in?
That only really applies to support keks
That's SOUL right there you blizzbab
No it doesn't. It only lets you change them to their old outfits.
It's even more true for bard though. All I wanna do is make the run go faster but when the tank, healer, and even the other fucking dps is working against me I just wanna scream.
thats clearly the oracle of darkness
He's a tia it was to be expected
It looks like Narshe but with more Imperial capital style buildings.
needs to add wider pauses during dialogue.
>Watching video guides
who was lahabrae? why was the ultima waeapon biuilt?
im confused af
Not really, trying to aoe if the tank doesn't know how to properly stack mobs is infuriating and makes dungeons take like 10 minutes longer
how many cutscenes did you skip, user. C'mon, you can tell us.
Fuck.
I just realized I'm not happy with my 65 AST after all and that the card system is unfun as fuck.
Even though WHM is the best, I wanna play my 52 Scholar, how the fuck do I get him to 65 now asap?
Spamming Dungeons? And Daily Roulette?
>who was lahabrae?
An Ascian
>why was the ultima waeapon biuilt?
As an anti-primal weapon.
These are some of the least confusing things in the game user.
>who was lahabrae?
complicated question, he's a part of a race of darkness affiliated guys who want to blow up the planet, more or less
>why was ultima weapon built
as an anti-primal weapon
stop skipping cutscenes
>Spamming Dungeons? And Daily Roulette?
Yes.
Fastest would be dungeon grind, squadrons, PoTD/HoH/Fates
Additionally you can buy a JUMP POTION
>An Ascian
what is that
why do they wanna blow up everything
im not skipping cutscenes im just confuesd
>tfw bard basically sees all the mistakes happen in real time
happy thoughts...
>what is that
You'll find out later. For now you just need to know that they're spooky void mages that don't have shadows.
>stop skipping cutscenes
Or he could have watched them while talking in discord or not truly paying attention. I've seen Praetorium runs where new players will be busy with the party chat and whining.

Never used Materia before, what should I meld on DRK gear?

why can the magitek mini metal gear suddenly act like something with a mind what the
yes
fuckin hell how dumb are you
They installed a mammet core into it. Mammets have a core of materia, which is crystallized aether, and it essentially acts as an artificial soul and grants them sapience.
Ascians are being who made themselves immortal as their souls don't dissipate after their bodies have died. They can take over any body they wish for. Further explaination is giant spoiler territory.
>An Ascian
The main bad guys. How many cutscenes did you skip to not know that?
.....
i did not skip any cutscenes.... im jhust having a hard time understanding the story
Shes ok, step up from mr happy and her vids are pretty concise, but some mechanics are glossed over when they should have better focus like bulwark tether and aoe baiting in her O10S vid
Squadrons as in run dungeons with my squadron?
Also PoTD/HoH I've never really done, is it okay as a healer class?
Because you used a mammet heart, and mammet hearts are a rudimentary bionic brain.
Go back to WoW you stupid ESL fucking retard.
titania or innocence ex first?
fuck off you cunt
unironically pretty good as far as video guides go
So, you're retarded?
>enterprise
remember star trek xDDD
in final fantasy...really?
Titania
titania
Yes. It's almost as fast as dungeon runs and you can just "afk" by just engaging the enemies, getting them aggro and just spam cure 2 over and over again. On DPS you can fully afk just needing to engage the enemies.
They'll fucking LOVE you as a healer in PoTD/HoH,
innocence is harder mechanically and in terms of dps requirements
titania has exactly one "hard" mechanic and it will wipe your group over and over and over if they're dumb as fuck but if you get past that she's pretty easy
(its the add phase knockback, obviously
I did Titania then innocence.
But I'll recommended innocence first, hes way more lenient and you're almost assured to get gear from a single run whereas it took me ten for Titania.
Doesn't matter.
Not my fault you're pretty fucking stupid.
Did you drop out of school?
suck a dick honestly
no? i just dont get the story
First time playing FF4 huh you fucking secondary?
>tfw SE would 100% add an ingame cash shop if they could but their coders are too incompetent to implement it
>arr credits rolling
how long is this and can i go pee during? people are still talking
Oh I wanted to solo the floors.
Innocence is easier to clear from personal experience was well as what I have seen on this board alythough it has more RNG attached and singular mechanics. Titania actually is the easiest of the two however it requires way more party cooperation so you can imagine how shitty things will get fast,
Just roll on it.
>innocence is harder mechanically
How old are you?
You have to be 18+ to post on Yea Forums. Are you some type of savant?
you don't even need to watch the credits user
>no? i just dont get the story
No, really, you're retarded.
You can. but PoTD/HoH has really fast queue times and it goes by really fast in a group.
>incompetent
Thats 1.0 spaghetti code you fool. And this isnt some chink cash shop game.
last you for you
for you too
gonna watch the credits now
You didn't answer any of my questions user.
What datacenter are you on? Crystal?
This is pretty gay even for final fantasy
At this point I honestly wouldn't bother.
The only people left who need to clear are people too stupid to clear; and it only takes 1-2 retards in your party to make a fight categorically impossible to beat.
Assuming there's 50:50 shot of every member being a retard you have a roughly 16.4% chance of being successful.
Now I'm not a bettin' man, but if you need 10 tokens for your weapon and at 8 minutes per fight that's asking a wee bit much of me.
(And this is of course all after you've spent hours wiping to the same people's same mistakes while trying to learn the fight)
the fuck is this?
Get the fuck out of here kid. Go outside and spend time with you parents/friends instead of playing videogames.

>lahabrea still alive
!?!? WHAT how is this even possible
Everyone who played 1.0 during a certain time could register a name to appear in the credits.
SE didn't really bother checking them either, so unless you put downright profanity they would pick up on with a word filter you could get downright anything intot he credits. More than just a handful epic memers slipped dumb shit in there.
Innocence has zero. But so does Titania. This tier is a joke.
You sure about that?
I don't
>using a chocobo that brands me as a retard
no thanks I've also never spent a cent on the mogstation
keep coping for getting scammed
i dOn't kNoW ThE StOrY Is sO BoRiNg sO FaR AnD As a hEaLeR I JuSt pReSs cUrE OvEr aNd oVeR AgAiN. iT'S So bOoOrInG.
Innocence, besides one mechanic with the lights, has next to no raid wiping moves if people just pay attention.
Titania has like 3 seperate mechanics that puts my life in the hands of a potential retard. This alone always will put Titania as more difficult for me, not to mention her phantom switching move that can easily catch tunnel visioning idiot dps.
Because SE knows that everyone will just use bots to level them up.
inno and titty are objectively harder than susan and lakshmeme
lakers was a complete joke of a fight and susan had one mechanic that wasn't 100% pants on head retardedly easy (storm cloud)
innocence is aoe heavy and requires you to frequently have to consider the positioning of your party members as well as having a """tight""""""""""" enrage check, and while titty is easy shes still harder than susan
innocence is a harder lashmiimii, titan is a harder susan
People are doing Titania more atm due to the weapon. Roll with that first and if you can get some pals for innocence then even better since it is just avoiding AoEs. Due note that he has like one or two bait AoEs which can screw people up.
How could I not be sure?
Kid, go away.
Wowfags need not respond
Honestly? No. Jumping will not teach you shit about the game and most prior content people blaze thru anyway so you will his ShB and not understand anything. Take it slow. AAR has some DULL moments so skipping some shit is acceptable. HW is great and just enjoy it for the ride. SB has some major low points but if your a weeb it should keep you interested. ShB has a lot of shit that is dependent on older story context to really get whats going on but fuck is it worth it. I skipped thur most of HW to get to raid time and I regret it. NOw once you get to 80? Jump potion some shit so you dont have to suffer a lvl grind from 1-70
That's just moronic. And I don't mean SE.
I've played my miner up to about 35 back in the ARR days and want to go deep into the whole crafting / gathering thing. Are there any guides or hints about how to go down that route? I am completely lost as how to level those are what class to level first.
Leves
Learn to read.
i wanna milk her
How hard are the extreme trials compared to savage?
Like would Titania or Innocence be about as difficult as the first or second fight of the raid tier?
Do it
savage > extreme, typically
It's not the gatherers i have trouble with its the crafters. Gatherer's are easy just choose a miner go out and mine some rocks. Take a levequest then mine some more.
Learn to fuck off.
>Enterprise isn't a famous name for ships
LMAO GOOD JOB US NAVY I GOT THE REFERENCE.
Go be dumb somewhere else. Reddit enjoys your kind
for the love of god leave this thread
Susano was harder than that joke of a fight o1s, I definitely remember that
wHat JoB should I boost WHM is soooo easy all i do is press cure 1 or cure 2.
yeah but the game is soooo boring. i don't care about the story just end game content.
Next time you say something retarded, just pretend it never happened.
Extremes are around the same difficulty as the first 2 savage fights in a tier most of the time.
other savage bosses > extreme > first boss of the raid on savage
why are you telling all the people calling you out on being a retard to leave? suck it up
thread theme
Whats the one that helps with mechanics ?
Then jump potion, skip content, and get end game gear in about a week. Then cry about no savage content for the next 2-3 weeks and when it does comes out parse gray on each failed attempt. I got you boo. Saved you a month's sub.
Savage raids require more team cooperation. That being said it doesn't mean EX trials don't. Titania right now is a perfect example of that. Overall savages are always harder.
>B-Bro Emet-Selch is so tragic.... I'll remember him always....
He killed billions of people and ranted about creating a master race. If you seriously sympathize with him, you're fucked in the head.
Next time you say something retarded, just pretend it never happened.
>inno and titan
>harder than susano
God no. I wiped more times to Susano thanks to brainlets dropping markers on the party-side of the arena than I've wiped cumulatively to all other SB ex-trials.
Usually the first two fights of a tier (since a9/10s) are only slightly harder than ex-trials. I have a feeling Eden is gonna come in swinging though.
No, people can sympathize with him.
But if people don't sympatize with Hitler, they're the real monster.
Next time you say something retarded, just pretend it never happened.
Hydaelyn killed more by shattering the world and making everyone mortal and frail.

He doesn't think his race is special just that you're retarded.
>He killed billions of people
No he prodded them along they killed themselves he just harvested their souls. The whole vauthrty shit shows that he offers people a choice they're the ones who fuck up.

They ruined AST and SCH too much and WHM's aesthetic doesn't appeal to me.
if hydaelyn was good, why is she keeping secrets.
i see so many new people in the areas, honestly good fun
hydaelyn destoyed his world though. people aren't complete
is this ex ifrit?
Both Hydaelyn and Zodiark are bad and need to go, so does whatever caused the sound inside of the planet that made the Ancients summon their nightmare creatures.
Lahabrea was one of the Patriots, Ultima Weapon was Metal Gear Rex.
How much is a full gathering/crafting set?
well that makes sense honestly la li lu le lo
>the retard is a kraut
Shocker
This is hard mode.
Extreme has the same picture but Ifrit is coloured as well.
good thing zenos will control zodiark and im sure ryne will force hydalyn to help wol. The noise will be next expansion
they're cheaper than mats on balmung atm
i play with german text but english voices and i'm not a retard the fuck?

Brainlet here, should I save up my VIII materia for Eden gear and use VI for my current gear?
>Gabranth is going to blow a hole to the center of the planet
>people still don't realize Zenos is going to pilot Hydaelyn
Around approx how much would be the full set?
I did that quest with the starting sam gear git gud
holy fuck could you shut up you colossal paranoid fuck or to quote your sorry ass:
why are you telling all the people calling you out on being a retard to leave? suck it up
Doesn't matter if you do hunts, I have something like 50 extra materia ontop of my slotted VIIIs
They shilled so hard it's making me not want to play because I feel like if I started now, it would feel like it worked on me.
>He killed billions of people
No he fucking didn't.
I've gotten so much Stellaclusters from hunts and healer in need bonus I just slot everything with VIIIs
can't get good cause the last boss wrecks shit
Is there a point where MSQ transitions from "Go here talk to X" to being more dungeon focused? I'm so fucking bored and it just keeps going.

oh well, i have my tramp stamp time tattoo at least
No, but maybe you should consider transitioning instead.
nvm, google worked better than yandex for once
Very cute server
Yeah I felt like SE stripped BRD out of a lot of decisions they could make. There were so many things you could fuck up with improper Straight Shot usage alone. I always felt there's room for improvement but now I think the whole job boils down to:
-keep songs at 30-30-20
-dont drop dots
-dont clip ogcds
-dump barrage>ra in raging strikes
If you manage to do that you will always purple parse
What would be better for someone that hasn't played in 2 years?
Start fresh with a new character but have to do all those boring fetch quests again.
or
Drop in as a level 52, watch all the cut scenes to remember whats going on and relearn to play.
Cool it achmed
Basically Narshe
>paranoid user shitposting is paranoid as fuck
Color me surprised
The latter.
The second one by far. ARR is a slog to play through, and the majority of the important stuff is in cutscenes.

I've been told Chaos is filled with frogs who don't speak English. What are the remaining two options like? is it better to just wait for couple of weeks until all this blows over so new players don't end up on a dead world and have to pay world transfer later on?
>mfw I got the bird but no tattoo because I was homeless at the time and didn't have consistent access to technology.
You could try Phoenix, any other lower-pop light server except shiva (that one has a lot of germans) or just wait until Odin is no longer congested, but that might take a while.
this is actually butthurt bordering on mental unstability
>Use Truth of Forest
>You must be on your own home world to use this feature
The fuck?
Cheaters never prosper
Anyone else bothered over how insanely hot some of the sin eaters, Ryne and Titania are?
Especially that last Sin Eater boss in the 79 dungeon
Chaos has the French, Light the Germans and much more streamers.
Just pick which annoys you the least, if it matters to you most guilds competing on a world level are on Chaos, while Light is considered the official unofficial PvP datacenter.
When I returned to Phoenix last night after buying up other Market Boards, I got the message that Phoenix is considered a congested world.
Fuck Krauts
Fuck Frogs
and fuck the jannies
What would I even be cheating?
Phoenix is congested now as well. Just hang out on Twintania until you can transfer to Odin or Phoenix
Is Sargatanas the worst server on aether? Some autismoids called Lone Badguy and Cute Boy were textfucking next to the aetheryte in lominsa.
just start where you left off, no need to start from scratch. watch the cutscenes at the inn or youtube to catch up on the story. Look at guides and practice on dummies to re-learn job rotation at lv 50; even then you're not even max level
Im the guy who told you that but im not the guy one youre replying to
feels good seeing you have a mental breakdown over it
Try creating a character during very late night/off peak hours.
You have to go back.
>Is Sargatanas the worst server on aether?
No, that would be Faerie.
It absorbed trannyland(balmung) so yes.
I know. I'm just confused on why you aren't able to use it though. What exploit would this cause?
>Cute Boy
Was it a female lizard? God what a disgusting human being.
I don't think we need to create more autists to sperg everytime they see a xiv thread. We already have the jannies for that.
>textfucking next to the aetheryte in lominsa.
Business as usual.
Can I just do the DPS with the highest hp?
Pretty cute desu
I know it's completely pointless. You couldn't even efficiently gather the same hidden node on multiple servers for the time it's up and for your GP to regen.

Emet you don't understand, he had a katana. I only had 3 katanas. What was I suppose to? What? No he didn't force those secrets out of me, I did that willingly. What do you mean that was a bad idea? You don't understand, he came at me with a katana.

AAAHHHH EMET HE'S HERE
So is it
BLM > DRG > MNK > SAM > Caster with highest HP > Melee with highest HP
Then I get ACT and change to whoever is doing the highest dps and not dying?
N-no he had a plan we just need to learn what it is in order to understand his brilliance.
Light it is then, I don't care much for PvP but Germans at least know English and are culturally closer to me.
Thanks for the tips, I guess it's also all congested because it's an afternoon during a weekend. After looking up world transfers, I can't even do it until after three months after making the character so worlds should certainly clear up by then.
Thanks again.
The fucking guy had a katana, what was he supposed to do?
Am I the only one that doesn't have a problem with Zenos?
Highest emnity generally works too.
No, a lot of people love him. It's just a few insecure faggots because he beat us 2 times.
