Jacke eats the catgirls sandwich and the is some subplot about some artifacts or something. The best part is afterwards sometimes you see the catgirl eating a sandwich outside the Bismark in limsa

The greatest mistake of SCH quests was not continuing the ACN quests. But at least we got Tonberries being awesome from 54-60.

SMN is great because it's the best Scion's sister asking every 5 levels "How would you like some ancient powerful magic?" There's also some kind of B plot involving some idiot raiding with ifrit and the Ascian JV team but SOMEBODY needs to be there to be deathflared.

DolphinCop posted:if theres anything truly annoying about class/job quests its that they never tie into each other or even acknowledge one another in the slightest outside of the class master telling you where to go to get your job crystal I do like that the non-class quests that send you to a guild have special dialogue for if you're leveled in that class. I got sent to the THM guild for an Idyllshire quest and got greeted with "Ah, our very own avatar of destruction. What can I do for you?"

I appreciate that the warrior questline gives a canonical explanation for being a tank; Your character has done all these amazing feats that basically no other warrior has, and it turns out the reason you can is because protecting others unleashes the TRUE inner beast.

I appreciate how the WAR questline keeps pointing back to how everyone in Wineport was murdered but nothing is really done about it besides saying "Maybe don't get that mad again, ok?".

DRG 50-60 is really bad  But I suppose it's dramatically anime enough to fit the tone of Ishgard.

I skipped through the majority of the 1-50 CUL and BSM story quests, even though I could read them. It was just painful to decipher and wasn't really necessary since I could fill the story in from most of the rest of the NPCs. e: assuming that the THF guys have the same mystery accent that these quest chains did.

If you've ever watched Batman:TAS basically Rogues are Batman and the Yellowjackets are Gordon's fat rear end in a top hat partner who hates Batman. Kuvo posted:WAR quests lv 52-60 are muscular roegadyns getting sweaty and slapping each other. Running that questline as a Roe makes it so much better because it's Roe Bros all the wall. Also the Marauder's Guild getting replaced with a Warrior's Guild is rad.

The Labyrinth of the Ancients armor is all very amano-derivative, and the weapons that go along with that armor is very much in that style. The tank set is straight up the FF1 Warrior of Light with a circlet that drops in the dungeon and a helmet only attainable from the 2.0 Collectors Edition

Is there a way to increase TP regen through food or gear? I'm paranoid about using things like Shield Bash in big fights because I start to run low on TP and then someone will break aggro while I'm regenning and then we die and it's all my fault and OMG gently caress.

I've been running FATES and dungeons on my DRK and since we got TP bars on Tuesday I've noticed that the appropriate classes are actually using the TP abilities as appropriate. Kinda surprised tbh, especially in FATES.

No Also don't use Shield Bash unless the fight specifically requires it (very few fights require stuns that your dps can't take care of)

Fuckers couldn't focus on a target if you paid them, and run around like a drat rabbit if something looks at them because they drew aggro being the only one attacking that mob.

All of the Rogue guys' dialogue is 100% understandable if you just bother to read the sentences and understand context.  I do like how they show up during the Ninja quests now and then. It helps maintain the feeling that you are indeed a standard fantasy heroic-thief archetype who's actually learning an exotic foreign art, and at the same time actively helping maintain good diplomatic relations between a city-state and refugees. There's something poetic about the ale-swilling scallywags being the ones who've actually got the Domans' backs. Avenging_Mikon posted:gently caress BRDs.

They stop with this bullshit once they hit 52 thanks to Wanderer's Minuet. Speaking as one who actually enjoys playing BRD and MCH, this seemingly burdensome ability is a blessing to those who don't for the exact goddamn annoying reason you state.

People are pulling aggro because you're shield bashing all of your TP away instead of flashing or doing your actual threat combos. Don't use it unless you actually need to stun something.

Brannock posted:I played with a grognard tonight in Sohm Al who bragged about how he had never paid a single bit of attention to the story or script since 1.25. There needs to be an MSQ involving a quiz that pools from several thousand questions of lore trivia relating to the main story, that in turn pools from several hundred questions with like eight randomly arranged answers, required to pass for progress. It won't stop story-skippers, as there'll inevitably be a gameFAQ for answers somewhere, but it will irritate them, and anything that annoys people who hate the story in this game (as if there isn't enough that does that already) is good in my book. On another note: Is it just me or are Summoners kinda bonkers-good DPS right now? I'm leveling one, and the performance I'm getting out of it runs circles around my Machinist and Ninja. Not at 60 yet so maybe it's a different story then. Right now, I'm mostly grinding dungeons to fill XP gaps between quests, but it's especially noticeable when on the last boss in Aery, we're sitting and twiddling our thumbs for 5-10 seconds between waves during the add phase playing as SMN, but it's always much closer with others.
