I've seriously considered buying a 3rd optional retainer, but of all things, the only thing holding me back is the thought of having to level another retainer through ventures. Having to check back every hour to receive useless crap I'm gonna toss feels like a chore.

Alternatively, just check back every hour since you're already checking on your other retainers every hour to retrieve Mythrite Sand, Deepeye Tears, Chimera Manes, or any of the other items you can resell for mad cash.

Every time I see an update on A3 Savage it's just a lot of screaming and emojis I'm sitting here quietly hoping you walk in there and Living Liquid just sets himself on loving fire or something and it's like surprise motherfucker

I made a huge mistake a year ago when I made my battle retainer a Thaumaturge, something I currently have no interest in taking to 60. I'm thinking I'll just level BLM to 60 via FATEs and forget about it after, but man it hurts that she's been stagnant for the past month. Finally started yesterday by FATE grinding to 51, so she can get some exp while I sort out how to keep going.

I haven't tried fitting Storm's Eye in there, but I'm sure it'd make things even goofier. ya berserk + full swing + fell cleave x 2 is generally a dead person. brutal swing and holmgang make sure theyre not going anywhere. also fun is popping push back and vengeance (along with all your other def cool-downs) and running into a group of melee people who then proceed to punch themselves to death on you also in a game last night i knocked close to 10 people off that one node up on the cliff using mythril tempest and it

It definitely has a decent skill ceiling. Faust is a great litmus. Can your team beat a 6k damage check in 2.5 minutes? If yes, go on ahead. If not, figure out what you're doing and how to get better. I don't think you'll need to wait 3 months to even try it, though. There is enough of a jump in stats on esoterics and full gordian gear that it will become a lot easier to just jump in even without a static.

I had my first go at Ravana EX last night, as a Monk, in a PF learning party. We got surprisingly far, squeaking past Final Liberation a couple of times (both times failing to break the following shell because one or more DPS hosed up said Final Liberation). Got a question, Monks, how do you manage GL stacks, Perfect Balance, Tornado Kick, etc.? What I did yesterday was to save all of my cooldowns at the start of the fight, blow them except PB for Prelude (including a Forbidden Chakra and Tornado Kick), blow PB for Liberation, then just build back up manually just before/during Warlord's Shell. Also do my DoTs deal damage to him while he's off trying to ram into and splatter people, or should I not even bother with Demolition/Touch of Death in Liberation phases?
