Final Fantasy XIV Shadowbringers

Is he the best Final Fantasy villain?

I can't remember any other FF villain as deep and well done as Emeth-Selch.

You fucked up, OP, or didn't get the memo. FF XIV threads are banned on Yea Forums because the mods/janitors and their cuck army said so. Usually people will report and sage these threads so their mod overlords will delete it and then they get good boy points that can be spent on one ERP session with the mods/janitors, and if they save up enough they can get dick pics from one of the mods/janitors. I heard a tale that if you report like 200 FF XIV threads they'll mail you a choker that says "Mods little slut" with rhinestones on it, also you get a pair of slutty underwear as well. Man, I'm just so jealous of these guys going around being good boys for the mods and janitors. You'd think they could just ERP or get dick pics from anyone off the internet, but no, it's gotta be from the mods and janitors so they can feel superior to everyone else on the site. It makes them feel special, so let them have it. It's about the only thing they probably have to look forward to each day.

Probably one of the best quality FF villains in a VERY long time. Hell, FF itself has been lacking in quality since IX, X, XI, or XII depending on who you ask.
I'd love this expansion as a 10/10 if they didn't fuck Healers over.

Yes but you chuuni them to submission.

It can be really fun, but it can be annoying as fuck if you're trying to play it very efficiently. The good answer is to not fret over small dps losses since you're a low dps, but my autism couldn't handle it.
Also NA apparently have latency problems with it.

He's not. He's slightly memorable because he managed to nuke the world, but he's utterly forgettable as a character.

I spent 3 mil gil so I can two-macro craft new stuff to sell from shit I have gathered.

Of course, they will also make fun of you, but the real chad chuunis do it anyway just to dab on the normies.

I don't think he is liked because of his character, it has more to do with how his story was told in the game, that's what really fascinates the players.

The only sin they have commited against healers is that they haven't made them as braindead faceroll as tanks.

I think you mean they carry the expansion on their back. Those three are the only ones worth a damn in the ENTIRE EXPANSION. Fuck Stormblood.

That was really damn stupid and the other characters at least told her she was being dumb but still didn't stop her so that makes everyone else as dumb as her too in my book.

It wasn't that bad, I really enjoyed the feeling and music of Yanxia and the eastern territories like the steppes and the Ruby Sea. It was a bit weaker than Heavensward but still overall I found it a lot more enjoyable than ARR.

That part is kino. Pay attention to the text.

The Exarch said he accidentally summoned people who were close to the WoL when trying to summon him. Lyse is canonically not close to the WoL.

Do you like Zenos? because he is going to same way

Atmas and rare fates for the books are the bad parts, all the rest should be pretty easy

the rest is even worse! it cost money, OY VEY

He shouldn't have sperged out at the end.

He should have stayed dedicated to a peaceful solution, but we realize a return to the Ancients' civilization will only repeat their calamity, since it was due to their powers going out of control. We fight him because he would unmake the world just to doom it again.

I want to say female cat by the ";3" but I'll go with male au ra.

The duality of elf

You like him because he enjoys being obtusely evil with funny lines and he's a good foil to the protagonists. That's about it though you can like Kefka and I think he is well written for what he is, but there isn't a lot of depth there. Only FF villain to come close to Emet is probably Kuja, everyone else ranges from Kefka level to trash like fucking Zemas from ff4.

>having a lore name but for the wrong race

God I hope they go all in with letting you "remember" him and his people. I want a portrait you can hang on your wall. I want a landscape of Amaurot. I want housing and tabletop items.

Literally not a single VA fits their character. What was Square thinking?

Attached: brick.png (639x639, 22K)

Wrong

Isn't that a male elezen name?

But it wasn't just a literal sound. Horrors got unleashed that weren't designed by their creation magiks. Other continents fell to these things. Lahabrea managed to capture one and house it in his lab. Their paranoia hastened their demise, but it wasn't the cause. Whatever is at the center of the planet has horrors protecting it.

It’s only fitting since garlemald might be a point of interest in the future.

Could have a rouge legatus like reddas teach us.

I'm close to maxing out MCH and my AoE feels weak as fuck.

>But it wasn't just a literal sound
Yes, it literally was. That's what multiple NPCs describe it as. The elements stopped working like in FF1 and FF5, and then a horrific sound came from inside the planet that made them lose control of their own powers.

God I wish Amaurot had a proper ilvl req so retarded skippers couldn't enter until they figure out how to get their AF gear.

Correct.
Bros why is Urianger's VA so great but he's not in anything except some side roles in games no one cares about?

Every good actor gets their break somewhere.

Stop making fun of Lyse. She spent the better part of the last decade pretending to be someone she's not. We're lucky she turned out with a stable personality at all.

Her stable personality is being an unstable retard. I'll make fun of her all I want.

I really spend too much energy trying to top dps list in fights, I get too tense. I'm just thinking of playing RDM and shutting my brain off and let other people carry me.

i mean to be fair she had no idea the guards were tempered and had tossed a shitload of crystals into the meeting room prior to everything
she did take all of their crystals off of them before hand so if they hadn't 4D chessed her it wouldn't have happened
i was more mad that the qirean with the beard didn't have any lines what the fuck

I've been maining MCH since 4.0 and now in SHB it became about as braindead as RDM. Then I tried MNK and fuck that, it's boring and the fast gcd gets bothersome fast. Then I tried SMN, and I kinda started to understand it and then I thought fuck man, all this work for less dps than MCH? I need to relax playing the game, I'm done trying to be this perfect super player.

male elezens are always played by stoners

I had a Scholar in Holminster that didn't use his Fairy until we told him to fucking summon it.
His response was something like.

>Oh it was greyed out so I didn't check my skills.

Which means he somehow played through Kholusia and Amh Araeng without even checking his skills.

xivg is literally unusable

They're all terrible. Alphinaud should have a higher pitched voice, NO lalafell should have a deep voice, Y'shtola should have a qt voice, and nobody in the game should be fucking British.

You only see it if you're on that part of the questline, and it's the only time you'll see Titan say that text.

I did 10.5k dps as MCH in Innocence ex with normal food and in 90% of cases (I cleared the fight over 100 times) the next best dps was 2k dps below me.

Are you playing on a 90s calculator?

the first summoning lasted for literal moments and didn't actually temper any of them (which is why we had that cutscene where we blocked the tempering wave)
if they had did that it wouldn't have caused anywhere near as much of a problem, since even just the WoL and Arenvald were able to hold out for a pretty good amount of time before they needed Fordola

/vg/ is literally unusable and should be deleted. Anyone who wants to maintain a culture inside threads and treat them like a chatroom should just move to discord. It's a breeding ground for the mentally ill and is antithetical to Yea Forums's concept.

He's just a handsome man, fuck you.

But Pippin is great in Japanese. Having both Viral and Kamina come running out into battle during that one dungeon with everyone was a treat.

It wasn't JUST a sound. There was more to it than that. The Debate Quest and the other Expert Dungeon both outline this. What you said is true, but there was more to it than that. The Dooms weren't from Ascian minds. The beast that escaped Lahabrea's lab, none of them were Amarautine creations. They were created differently.

The Planet's collapse took Amaurot LAST. The rest of the world fell to the Sound first. It was the fear of the impending Doom coming to Amaurot that caused their minds to fill with nightmarish thoughts.

there's no escaping the deep voice
even in the japanese dub youtube.com/watch?v=bj6eQ7oitJo

>Alphinaud should have a higher pitched voice
Why? So you can jack off to him more easily? He's 16, not fucking 8.
>Y'shtola should have a qt voice
No, she shouldn't. She's a bitter old witch.
>and nobody in the game should be fucking British
Actually lorewise the Eorzean language, Hyuran Common, is an analogue to English. If you read any of the written text in the game you'll see it's just English with an altered alphabet. Hyuran Common is also the language spoken across most of the world including in Doma and Kugane.

A MCH does not out dps a SAM and I don't find SAM hard to play at all. I guess you're just retarded.

Alphinaud is like 17 and for Elezen that's really fucking young his voice should be as shrill as it is, and Y'shtola is a cranky smart ass witch I don't need her going "uguuuuuuu~" every fucking cutscene

hot desu

Learn to read you moron I said SMN not SAM.
Now that you mention it, SAMs are played mostly by retards and I outdpsed them as mch many times.

>Alphinaud is like 17 and for Elezen that's really fucking young
Elezen only live a decade or two more than Hyurs and aside from getting a later puberty they also age at the same rate.

Does anyone have a /mouseover macro for placing the 1 Sign above an enemy player during PvP?

Why does Holy have to be so big and bright

Yeah I noticed you said SMN and not SAM, but it was too late at that point. Also if you're out dpsing a SAM as a MCH then the SAM is either undergeared or retarded. SAM usually tends to have the top physical DPS in the game, or at least it did.

I personally think MCH is boring as fuck, but a lot of people play it, so to each their own I guess. The robot summon is cool, but everything else in the kit feels boring to me. Build up some heat, do some shots, blah blah blah. You get a shitty flamethrower and poison spewer but the damage on them always looked weak to me. Don't know what the appeal is honestly about MCH, but I do see a lot of people playing it. Everyone tells me it's fun and I just don't see it.

Most SAMs in PF suck balls, they die and lose a ton of dps.
MCH, imo, is boring as fuck and gives you carpal tunnel syndrome just to make it seem like the class has some depth because you're mashing buttons all the time. I really don't give a shit about the animations, I don't notice them at all during fights and I turn them down because I don't want them cluttering my screen and me not seeing what's going on. Casuals are happy with it because they can finally play the class, in SB when they saw the opener they noped the fuck out.

Everyone on my server that I talk to really shits on AST, so not sure why people even play it. I know jack shit about healer jobs, but AST does seem the coolest and most fun, but it sucks that it seems to be the shittest of the healing jobs. I see more people jerking off to SCH than WM on my server as well.

This reminds me of a WHM I got a while ago that didn't want to use holy because they were afraid it would hurt everyone else's eyes and be annoying

Lyse is good friends with WoL but isnt on the same tier as the others as she spent most of her time either pretending to be Yda in WoL's presence or was off fucking around in Ala Mhigo whilst WoL was galavanting around Ishgard and Dravania.

I've mained healers since 1.23, and even got a 99 parse on a Stormblood extreme primal by accident on AST.

Man, people really let how he has been treated in games and media outside the original FF7 fuck up their judgement/view of Sephiroth.

He was a fucking great villan. His ominous presence throughout the plot and his dualiity with JENOVA were kino. He is at least Ardyn tier.

She's got a growth spurt coming too.

But user, that facial hair isn't available for use.

He's interesting but not really a deep character because all of his motivation is taken over by Jenova's will. Most of VII is actually put into motion by Hojo anyway. I should have put Hojo and Jenova on the list honestly.

Villans do not need to be "deep" though. Sephiroth was essentially a being that was mostly or entirely an Eldritch abomination by the time we see him in the main story. His influence on the game and its atmosphere really cant be understated. It was simple yet highly effective and cements him (and JENOVA along with him as they cant be counted separately) as a great villan

Did you literally read any of the post? Or do you just have brain damage? He put the balance on the SAM because he thought it was the old damage buff not because it goes on melee you illiterate retard.

Not stated, probably the 13-16 range.

I'm like 80% sure they said she was 8 when Thancred rescued her from Eulmore, and that was 5 years ago. So she'd be 13 unless I'm remembering wrong.

Old enough

And all of them weak and frail compared to make Au-ra

Are you trying to flex on here? You know people are going to call you retarded.

Yes I read the post you dumbfuck. "Keeps giving balances to the SAM" as if that was suspicious.

Second time in the same thread someone confused SAM and SMN?

No he's kefka and sephiroth tier of edgy shit

Pretty sure one of the dead ones was 15 when she started to get her powers so about that old.

DNC is a ranged DPS though, but you're right, we could get a spellcaster DPS possibly, though RDM could be considered one. I really just think we should get a new melee DPS job next.

I really thought he was one of the weakest parts of FF7. Just some weirdo who was wandering around and did absolutely nothing to my party until he finally landed on my healer, then promptly fucked off again for the rest of the game.

The game needs a new healer. More specifically a healer that plays an offensive role instead of sitting back casting heals. Think of Warhammer priests.
And they need to expand the job system and introduce support roles. Dancer is a step in the right direction but I'm not sure why it's labelled as a melee dps job.

Yeah, I remember. Even as a kid, I wasn't sure why the entire party thought it was a good idea to keep following him around, but then again Cloud wasn't very bright.

A lot of his impression was ruined by how easily broken the game was, to be fair. Seeing the big snake dead didn't really mean much even your party can already slap it around pretty well.

No, DPS are not at that stage yet.

There are too few milf-body mods and the ones that are around are probably incompatible by now. Also NuclearWasabi's lalafell shortstack mod isn't publicly available, probably commissioned and private. Ergo I'm not interested.

>The game being shit doesn't detract from him being a great tragic villain.

He just wanted revenge against the bloodlines of the Oracle and Kings.

then the DLC (and novel) rectonned him into being a "tragic" hero in the most asspull of fashion

Samurai was designed with that, Disembowel being a 10%-damage up is a holdover from Heavy Thrust which got pruned. Before Shadowbringers it was a piercing-resistance down debuff on the enemy.

No it's not. I've seen complaints in people's cpu spiking even though no programs are open even XIV after updating. People are thinking it's a cryptominer

>throwing a fit because no one is giving a meaningless commend
This is why I don't like dps

Tough call. They like to make all the 'cool' jobs into tanks to get people to play them but they also just introduced one. I can't see them adding two tanks in a row.

they have the exact same buffs because it's a shitty tab target mmo with no interactions but their class mechanics are different

Judges are all in the aesthetic and they have no unique powers outside of their stations. You can already basically be one by being a tank in the Elemental armor from Eureka, a "Garlean" job is pointless since the only useful magitek is already covered by Machinist.

Also judges aren't a "main character" job like Paladin, Warrior (Fighter/Berserker), Dark Knight and Gunbreaker are.

True. If that continues to be his reasoning we need yet another ranged physical, a caster and a healer before we hit complete parity across roles with 4 options each. With only two jobs per expansion it could be until the expansion after next when another melee or tank gets in.

Yes

I've tried this before with my experience in it and its primarily because the models if you were to rip them from the game have horrible bones and skeletons, animating them makes it look awkward and weird. You would have to re create the model from scratch to get any sort of fluid movement.

Its also the reason xiv's most lacking feature is character animations. The skeletons and number of bones they use for their models is incredibly low.

Yeah I could see them doing that too. They would have to do something though. Stuff like new races and jobs are big selling points for expansions and they already said they aren't likely to do any more races after this point and if they stop doing jobs too that's a huge blow to expansion hype. I wonder how they would make up for that.

>Compared with everything else, it is jarringly dark.

BLM is not OP, they are the class that should be doing the most damage every single patch. SAM should be second after BLM in terms of DPS. DRG is overturned right now for how much damage it does on top of utility. AST/SCH need obvious buffs

fookin saved

PLD and WAR are boring because they're about the job-instructors rather than you actually personifying your job, WAR was most enjoyable when it was about Gorge failing to meet the standards you're setting and about you meeting Mythril Heart's legends while Paladin has never actually had any knight-errant stories for it.

If you dont like the monk job fantasy then its not worth the pain of learning it. Feels nice to always have something to press but you frankly don't get that cathartic moment other jobs have. Like when Sam drops its level 3 iajutsu

Although popping brotherhood in a trial and literally becoming Kenshiro feels nice.

>All of which were problems in XI too
Yes, but XIV shouldn't be trying to ape XI in the first place.

BLM doesn't bring anything to the table, aside from pure DPS. What's more, they need to stand the most still, and due to ley lines stay still within a much smaller zone than Samurai.

BLM will always, and should, have the highest damage in the game.

Those people are the same types obsessing over dps meters, those shitty images with dps stats, and talking about optimization nonstop when barely anything in this game requires it.

They are the definition of no fun to play with because they're all actual ELITE faggots that think numbers and kill times actually matter beyond just killing the boss.

Now you know they're a r3dditors. What did they say?

difficulty doesn't dictate damage, lack of utility does. The two classes that are selfish damage are BLM/SAM and SAM is the most braindead class. BLM is also difficult for progression

That's about the normal for prog raiding.

They weren't problems in XI because the game was designed much differently. RNG on learning in XIV only serves to extend the length of time you spend on the minigame. If there were no RNG you could even remove the limited job aspect because simply running through dungeons one time would get you most of your spells.

The whole point of BLU being limited is it apes XI. I imagine it'll become more apparent with the Heavensward and later content where, outside of some support skills that will always be useful like Peculiar Light/Off-guard/Mighty Guard/White Wind, the majority of the new entries in your spell list will be for dealing damage and other situational effects, like XI.

Being a contrarian doesn't make you cool user

Good, fuck XIV-fags.

And that's not acceptable.

i was running bardem's mettle. we killed the first boss and everyone jumped down to the next area. the tank seemed upset that nobody grabbed the chest before jumping down, so he let the healer take aggro on the next pack and die so he could grab it. healer freaks out on him and the dungeon doesn't progress until the tank was replaced

are these images global maxes?

To be fair, it has a 150+ page thread that is almost always on the first page of GD. That's far more than most content ever got.
And that is coming from the most bootlicking discussion platform for the game.

BLU and discussion of it in general is contrarian as all fucking get-out. Before its announcement and reveal typical discussions were that it wouldn't ever get in, if it did get in it'd be boring,it'd be restricted to a rotation of abilities learned through job-quests that wouldn't mimic monster abilities in anything but name, and it'd be a fairly generic-feeling caster. Once it was revealed and later released, people began begging for the given nightmare-scenario so that it could be in raids, and Yoshida shot their dog and left a fat shit on their porch-step by not allowing it into raids.

Cool this isn't fucking XI just because you replicate something doesn't mean it will work, especially in a game built around an entirely different combat system you mongo.

So do BLM players just enjoy the animations? Or is it just fun to sit in the back and never move except when required? I feel like the job has pretty much zero mobility, so I can only imagine the appeal must be the explosions and animations, also the DPS.

Should I do all the side quests? Because I got told a while back to skip side quests to have something to level for alts.

RDM is, DRG is not. don't know about dnc

how do I git gud at BLM bros

you can't try them

It works fine, whether you like it or not is a wholly different and unrelated matter.

Might be. I think the Ivalice Raid might be a forecast of the MSQ the way crystal tower was.

>>all the crafter quest are 1 for 3 classes
>>they give massive exp
>>after you do them for 1 class you can try them for the other 2
>Please tell me there's a way to do them for the other 2 classes.
No. But leves are really fucking easy this expansion. Save it for WVR/ALC

>SAM is the most braindead class. BLM is also difficult for progression
This is the biggest fucking meme around that gets spouted by people who don't play either BLM or SAM at a serious level. Fuck off.

DNC is somehow easier than RDM

>Before its announcement and reveal typical discussions were that it wouldn't ever get in, if it did get in it'd be boring,it'd be restricted to a rotation of abilities learned through job-quests that wouldn't mimic monster abilities in anything but name, and it'd be a fairly generic-feeling caster
People said literally all the same shit about RDM and they were shown for the idiots they are. Nothing about BLU is impossible.

>lalafell does anything for loli lovers
Lol no

While that's true, the whole point of an expansion to look foward to would also imagine rebalancing. Imagine if Selene could interrupt skills, tether to an enemy as a heavy DoT, or make them take additional damage or tether to someone to act as a souped up Fey Wind. Imagine the possibilities if they gave a shit.

So some sidequests are trash. Most of them honestly. Hildibrand Manderville is the most noteworthy side quest in the game abd you should do them wherever you can (They have some fights and stuff in the quests ontop of being funny as shit). Blue quests are always useful and their quest chain has something interesting going on atleast. ShB is the only xpac I can think of that normal sidequests are actually interesting and useful (due to them scaling between 70-79)

"You're a shill if you disagree with me" is a classical retard retort.

Is SMN fun?

You do realize BLM has no competition from the other ranged DPS classes, right? So obviously you're at the top when RDM does garbage DPS and is the only actual other spellcasting DPS job in the game. SMN would be your closest competition but everyone knows SMN will never reach BLM levels of DPS.

Why do you reply to gutter trash level of bait?

no, even as a DRG main RDM is too fucking braindead

yep, eureka. also has a lot of XI glamours

As much as I am glad we went to the first, part of me wishes we didn't see Mhach/Amdapoor/Nym. But I dont' see it us going back in time to that. So it seems like they are going to leave the void arc behind.

please

>Everyone that doesn't obsess over number crunching and being a MUH ORANGE is an uber casual.
You're just proving my point, dumbfuck parse tranny.

I doubt we are ever getting another tank. The way I see it the game is only planned out to the 7.X series, anything beyond that is unsure yet. Depending on how the game is doing by that point they may just stop actively developing content and put the game into maintenance like XI, maybe doing occasional minor patches. If the game is still doing extremely well they might still put out expansions but possibly at a smaller scale and less often than the current ones.

They will definitely add a healer in 6.0. But anything more than that is up in the air. I think a new DPS is also likely, but it is possible that they will consider 18 jobs to be their "limit" and not add any more from that point. But they also must realize that new jobs are a HUGE selling feature for the expansions so they might commit to 2 anyway.

If they only do 1 job in 6.0, then 7.0 will be either 1 DPS, or nothing. If they do 2 jobs in 6.0, then 7.0 will likely be either 2 DPS or 1 DPS. I think they might go for just 1 new job at that point to bring the total number to a nice round 20.

I think the devs going for 4 jobs in each role is also fairly likely considering one of the main reasons they made dancer into ranged dps was "there was only two". But one of their main criteria for new jobs is marketability i.e. if the new job will help sell the expansion. Essentially "Is it cool enough for Yoshi to cosplay on stage". That usually means melee jobs since casters and healers are not "cool".

I think it's a meme class, but I haven't played it. MCH, SMN, and SAM are the top meme jobs in the game. If you play one of those jobs you'll get shit for it.

So nobody playing it after two weeks was part of their plan, got it.

She's not fucking a male Au'Ra there though.

nevermind i'm dumb and got those mixed up

And your just a contrarian trying to defend a god awful implementation of BLu
>Yeeee I like it
Doesn't fucking mean it's good or implementated well when it can't fufill any of it's core designs and ignores the fact that BLU has been different in every fucking rendition so there is no standard it had to be held to to make it limited.

Hildibrand quests in HW. You get Zidane's outfit from membership bonuses. The Prima Vista was the main story ship for SB 24-man raids (tho the actually story was about tactics). Ozma shows up not only as a boss in a 24 man raid but also a mount. I'm prob missing stuff but that is off the top of my head

Mhach has a riff from FF9's battle theme along with Ozma, the first BLM artifact is pretty Vivi once you dye it to the usual colors and the third BLM artifact is straight-up a Vivi glamour, there's a Zidane glamour available for subbing for so-and-so months, Gigi is a character in the Hildibrand quests for Heavensward

I don't even raid, but at least I'm not delusional enough to think that every person who wants to play the game more and improve is automatically obsessed with parsing.

You like pressing buttons? You want to double-weave every single GCD? You want to be punished for dying since you have a two-minute rotation? You want a job that punishes you for fucking up single everything is so rigid, any deviation is a pretty big DPS loss? You want to push harder than most other DPS jobs for little reward?

You might just want to be a Summoner.

This is your brain on BLU

That just makes it so now you never use Eos.

People really don't get how balancing in this game works, do they? A choice between "more damage" and "more survivability" is not a choice, because the correct answer is always damage. That is the whole reason they changed tank stances, that is the whole reason they revamped AST cards, that's the whole reason they rebalanced job synergy. Damage is all that matters. People seem to acknowledge this but it doesn't stop them suggesting dumb stuff like "dude what if tank invulns gave a dps buff" all the time.

If you give players a choice then for that choice to actually be compelling it has to be completely DPS neutral.

he is until a certain condition is met, you have to summon a boss that spawns outside of the dungeon, and hope people outside of the dungeon kill it, otherwise you can't proceed because he just uses hallowed ground and spams meteor

That's good to know. I was talking about people that want to raid 3-4 nights a week, the groups I have a good amount of firsthand experience with.
How about you pipe down if you don't know anything about what you're trying to talk about, faggot

So the developers literally stating what their design intent for BLU was is not good enough for you?

Why respond if you don't actually have a point to make? Why set a dipshit goalpost and then crow about how it's dead when a limited amount of content and its lack of resultant longevity fails to meet it? As if you aren't going to see crowds of blue mages again when 5.1 drops and change your tune about how dead it is, or more likely, complain on Yea Forums about how cringe and bluepilled those players are for playing a cuck job no content lmao got 'em.

Learn how to play your class, now do it with a group of people who are also decent at the game. Your party plays a huge part in how much dps you do, purple is really easy to get even if you are playing with retards, orange starts to get harder because things other party members do can actively hurt your dps.

Binding Coils of Bahamut was dead-on-arrival because of its difficulty and is still irrelevant because it's not in the normal raids roulette. Is it in the shed with BLU?

>It's the best at doing shit by itself
A fucking unsynced Paladin can do literally every EX heavensward primal in the game and your telling me BLU is the best solo content job?

Yeah the potential release date for whatever 8.0 would be is sometime in 2025, I could see SE tapping out unless the game continues to be a massive Shadowbringers-tier success. At that point the game will be around as old as WoW is currently. Either they hit some sort of technical limit, a creative wall, Yoshi leaving, or a simple desire to move on to the next game. There's plenty of things that could end the game after that point.

No matter what happens I agree that a new tank seems unlikely in the future. SE has struggled for years to get people to play the role and they seem pretty popular now but they were also hugely homogenized. DPS continues to be the most popular role and I could see them just doing what's popular if they dip to a single job per expansion after doing the 4th healer.

>Ladies and gentleman... we got him.
That's also a rebbit meme

Who the fuck cares if you can unsync it? An equivalent goal-mark would be unsyncing it as a lv. 50 PLD, not a lv. 70 PLD or lv. 80 PLD. BLU would survive because it can deal with everything in ways PLD cannot.

There is literally zero ZERO fucking reason to do old content synced unless you want to cripple yourself.

honestly the entirety of baldesion arsenal was top notch and i'd argue is the only true raid in the game

it's just that you had to slog through the whole eureka saga, as well as deal with the barriers of entry after clearing eureka to even attempt it

That has less to do with the job and more with SE not giving more incentives for running shit synced

I never got to try it because I made too much money selling logos to the people actually doing it.

You don't have a reason to be going there as an unsynced job beyond running it unsynced for its own sake. There's only overlap with one or two of the Hard ARR dungeons for Heavensward relics.

Even SAM can do it, so what are you waiting for?

You can literally unsync any of the heavensward EX primals as a paladin to grab the weapons or the materials without problem and save yourself time/money. And you can go through progging hell with a team of 8 BLU's. There is plenty of reason to do older content unsynced and PLD is the best at it.
