As an EU goon, excalibur is still the best choice for some goon on goon action, right? As in, there are people on at any time of day, and stuff? Well, that is, if I can actually enter in the first place. What other chocies for server do I have if I want to play with a bunch of good & fun people? Also, what's a good job to start with? I went pugilist, because I like hitting racoons in the face. vvv Well that's part of my question then, is there an EU based goon guild around? I'd rather not play with pubbies since at least goons have a decent sense of humour. I guess I could ask on EU goon squad. Hugoon Chavez fucked around with this message at 09:12 on Jul 7, 2015 |

Being an EU on Excalibur coupled with Pugilist/Monk sounds like pain and suffering to me, but if you can get past the inherent lag from that sort of dealio then I guess it's your call.

Magil Zeal posted:Well, going by the official preview... So the shield was put up by the Illuminati I guess? I kinda wish more effort had been made to pointing out the castle in the middle of the lake with the shield and why it was important. I guess, from the way everything is laid out, the shield kinda erupted from the fortress and is probably the reason most of the bridges are hosed up (debris falling everywhere). This makes visual sense, at least. This also means that at least to some extent the castle had been buried in place and may contain some pretty interesting things... though what we DID see if it didn't much look like an Allagan castle. Perhaps it's from the age of Old Ishgard. I'm still wondering at the bizarre lack of any Allagan ruins in Eorzea other than the Tower and Azys Lla. The Allagan clearly built things to be loving indestructible. It's like someone reached out and erased their entire civilization from the planet after the Tower sank.

Love this game. Haven't even got to level 50 yet, though. Best part of the game IMO is how cool your dude looks in it. I'd go so far as to say that this is the MMO with the coolest lookin' dudes. I'd say Female Highlander is the no. 1 sweetest dude you can be in this game and then no. 2 is Catdude and no. 3 is a Lalafell with a mustache.

Oh thank Christ for that, I've either lost cards cause I ran the timer with draw not applying the effect cause of this bug or just plain didn't draw a card and wondered what the deal was.

The sound effects for the following actions have been adjusted: Meditation / Form Shift / Fell Cleave / Broil Good night sweet Broil sound, your annoying clang will not be forgotten.

Was Fell Cleave really that noisy? I never noticed it in dungeons but I definitely noticed Meditation and Broil all the time. e: it might be warriors in my parties not using Deliverance and thus never using FC though

So with 3 turns and 4 Shafts required for a body piece I look forward to all the salt from people rolling on their 1 Shaft for the first week, assuming that all pieces can drop equally in each turn.

There are 4 floors, the final one does not have a map achievement presumably because it is a boss arena. Fist, Cuff, Arm, and Burden of the Father. Burden of the Father is likely a simple boss arena like the final turns of the Binding Coil.

I was just like you, EU times and started with Monk. You won't have any issues finding people to play with and the latency isn't a big deal (although I guess that depends on where you live? Routing and whatever.).

They made the stances give 10% more damage. So they reduced most of the stance only skills by 10%. Sidewinder though yeah that was a big reduction. It should still be a damage/Quality of life gain though.

An issue wherein the dark knight action "Dark Arts" would only apply its additional effect to a single target when used in area-of-effect attacks. And everything's hunky dory again!

bonewitch posted:First boss of Alex is EZ Not for pubs it isn't (Alexander spoilers ahead) We did like six cycles of the Missile-Add-AOE damage up the rear end and the hp values were always like 4%/16% by the time they self destruct. Best we did is killing one and getting the other to 15%. I'm not a dps but the dps seemed really bad

Alex cleared. Extremely, extremely easy. http://i.imgur.com/Wsoc2hJ.jpg There are tons of abilities that can be nightmareish if altered slightly, which I expect them to do for Savage.

So the titles were bugged by the way. Lighter than Air is the new Chocobo flying title, Finder of False Gods is Ravana EX, and Illuminati Quencher has vanished, presumably the Savage Alex t4 title now.
