I bought my Batman fanboy roommate a copy of Arkham Knight for his PS4, and preordered Zero Escape 3 for myself while I was at it.

I guess i understand the technical limitations but I really wanted that butler outfit after I got hosed out of the nice tux for the wedding gear.

I thought it was because they would have to remake the outfits to fit the different gender's bodies and that is way too much effort for something barely anyone would actually use

Can the costume items be placed in the armoire, or is it more stuff like the wedding outfit and Moogle suit that will forever take up retainer space? All I really want is the fatbo but I am also a packrat who refuses to throw away anything that is unique.

I have a ridiculous question: What do you have to do to get that fancy table that I see leatherworkers using sometimes? Just get the tool from the level 50 class quest, or is it bound to another item/something else entirely? I googled it and found an OF thread that leads me to believe it's just the level 50 class quest tool, but I've been burned by the OF before.

Thanks thread, for pointing out pre-orders alone allow for getting code! Now a Canadian goon was able to be an elf maid. I pre-ordered the game I cancelled on amazon.com on amazon.ca so I don't really feel bad about it!

Mazed posted:I wouldn't call it "overtuned", necessarily. Three of the four bosses aren't much trickier than anything from the Crystal Tower raids, but Ozma stands out because it has multiple phases that each require a good deal of precision -- although, as I've put it, they aren't individually much more difficult than your typical 4-man midboss. The combination of multiple phases, fairly tight mechanics, potential for miscommunication, and the pressure of having to deal with these things in a large group of total strangers creates an extremely messy situation, and it gets even worse when compounded with the fact that players are more prone to being assholes in 24-man, which is a culture that established itself way back in CT and feels like a carry-over from other MMOs where bad behavior was the norm in random groups, i.e. WoW. I think the main thing is just a lack of familiarity with the mechanics. I didn't really "get" ozma when I tried WC last week and screwed up and saw lots of others do the same. Now that the mechanics are known and you move out on pyramid and in on square and meteors has become more figured out as well its way easier. We cleared all of Weeping City in a DF group w/ only one wipe because people generally knew what to do. The one wipe was due to alliance B dumping their meteors in the wrong spot and it was fairly easy once that was corrected. Its not a faceroll, but its also not crazy hard either. Most importantly, the fights are a lot of fun imo and I'd happily run WC over and over if rewards weren't capped to one per week.

The overhead they have from working models is so, so heavy, that adjusting one single promotional model is not the problem. If they wanted to do it for both genders, they would have done it. The Art Director/manager clearly doesn't shy from telling the artists to adjust the models considering how many armors unnecessarily have different models between their male/female versions.

Is there an actual strategy to Ozma's cube phase other than "group together so it's easier to heal through it"? I know there was talk of the tank moving out of the group but I'm not sure why, and the lasers seem to be pretty random.

Tank stands on one side of the platform, everyone else stands on the other side. Healer(s) grab balls. Don't get knocked off by Holy. Stack on the stack symbol. That's it. Also don't pop cooldowns because it takes reduced damage during that phase.

I thought dragonskin maps would spike in price today because of reset day and people wanting to lore cap without dealing with roulettes, seems I was horribly wrong cause the loving things dropped nearly 80k and keeps getting lower. I guess I'll just loving use the 4 maps I have saved up and make more then 100k a map.

Don't horde the maps. They spiked to 200k about two days into the patch, but they've been in freefall ever since. And they will only continue to do so because the market will be flooded with the items you can get from there. I'm just happy I already made over 5 million from the Aquapolis. And that's with me often keeping the minions or other items for myself. I made over 2 million just off materia from there.

I know there was talk of the tank moving out of the group but I'm not sure why, and the lasers seem to be pretty random. If the laser is targeting people randomly your tank is awful and not doing their job and hate is bouncing all over the place. Or alternatively one of the other groups wiped, but in that case you're hosed anyhow.

I did boss two after the two other parties wiped (and bringing my own group from just me and the tank back with LB3) and ressing the other groups' healers. Ozma and fisto both had at least one party on the floor at one point or another, each successful time too. I wouldn't bank on it, but a full party wipe doesn't necessarily mean game over.

Technical restrictions haven't been a thing for dressup in MMOs for over a decade outside of weird games that don't want to have the item model stretch or compress because ~stupid artsy reasons~ or whatever.

And they will only continue to do so because the market will be flooded with the items you can get from there.

I game back to the game after a long hiatus (last played at patch 2.3ish), purchased heavensward and am almost level 50. I main Paladin, picked up the important cross class skills and hope some goons can help me get the hang of tanking the harder content, I'm doing fine in the dungeon roulette so far. I know that level 50 was the previous max level, should I be concerned with the old 'end game' grind or should I just keep working though the story quests to get to heavensward content? I know in a couple MMO's the random expansion quest rewards at level 51 can be on par with the pre-expansion end game gear at 50.

kzin602 posted:I game back to the game after a long hiatus (last played at patch 2.3ish), purchased heavensward and am almost level 50. Just by doing story quests at 50 you'll be given 110 level gear, and you'll likely be able to buy a set of 120/130 level stuff if you do the optional content at 50 (with tomestones of Poetics). 130 will last to 54/55 I think? Either way your equipment won't be obsolete the second you walk into expansion content. That said, you also don't need to find groups to do all the raids or higher-end 50 content. Skip it and move on unless you really want to see it right now.
