Hey Square, how bout you try fixing your blooming RNG? So I was pentamelding a choker for my gathering classes. The chance of success was 8%. Now I get that's pretty low, so I figure the worst case scenario i go through 30 to 40 materia. Nope! After going back and forth to the MB and spending millions of gil, success! after 118 attempts! at 8 percent! Now do the math on that SE, that's well under 1 percent. After the 60th try it just became a joke to me.
I know it was my choice to overmeld but this experience has completely turned me off to this game. I'm canceling my subscription and don't plan on ever coming back. Have a nice life Square!

You really don't want to know, it was that bad, and yet insipid at the same time.

Recording audio w/o consent is also a real legal liability in some jurisdictions and I don't want to be sued because I committed the horrible crime of providing a free service to goons at my expense and have someone take it waaaay too far.

AF is fine! It's just... there are very few pictures of Roe ninjas of any sort on Google Image Search.

Which begs the question: Are they just unpopular, or are they just *very very very talented* relative to all the other races?

Out of all the mumbles I've been on this one is the only one to ever have this type of stipulation. Also pretty sure no one has ever been successfully sued over a mumble recording. Nor would it ever happen.

There are a few links here.

Roes are fairly rare in general outside of tanks and certain melee classes. It was the same way with Galka in XI.

Void Ark is a blast to heal if nothing else. Cucu also has been easier for my groups to figure out than, say, Angra Mainyu was since the big pain points have a more district visual effect than the Doom debuff icon.

Edit: I can try to pull up some Steam shots of my Roegadame as Ninja later this morning but I can say that the animation for her is really great and far more fluid than you might expect for the Big Bulky Race. I can't speak towards the males.

Well, the animations are all identical between races, right? It's mostly a matter of 1: Ohjou Kai looking loving huge on everyone else but maybe looking okay in Roe hands? 2: Assassinate not being accompanied by the sound of Mario stomping a Goomba, as well as not resulting in instant death for anything potato or smaller. 3: huge body, naruto run. So if enough of those things don't make my sperg twitch I'll go Roe and not say, dragonwaif(u).

Apparently my ninja screenshot collection is lacking. I could have sworn I had one with the Batsight Osode on as well, but I'll grab a few pics when I get home.



Weapons are scaled to be pretty drat large on Roe, so it'll probably look like you're dual wielding paladin swords. Assassinate and the ninja run are a bit silly for Roegadames but the rest of the animations are great and fluid.

I've been levelling War and having a lot of fun but I feel like having an option for TP regen would be nice at lower levels, esp when especially early dungeons mostly devolve to 'what's the biggest pull I can do without dying' -> overpower spam.

The only way to make money with wolf marks that I've found is to buy cheap armor pieces and desynth them. You'll convert 20k wolf marks into maybe 100k gil if you get lucky. Maybe you'll do better outside of accessories, but I kinda doubt it.

So basically, there're better ways to make 10bux.

Weirdly enough, if ACT overlays are tanking your FPS you might need to turn Aero on. If Aero is off, the overlays absolutely murder my FPS but with Aero on there's no noticeable hit. Worth a shot, assuming the overall marginal performance hit from Aero isn't a dealbreaker for you in other ways.

I'd play one but all the nose options are terrible and it bugs me. Also being tall is the worst since it looks like you are moving slow and just knowing that you aren't doesn't shake that feeling.
