I DON'T KNOW THE BBCODE FOR BIG RED TITLES SO I CAN'T FIX THIS FUCK

EponymousMrYar posted:

I haven't even gotten a haircut for my dude. Every time I look over the new hair options it's just like "... nah, somethings off."

So I have like, 2 free fantasias and 3 jaundeline tokens sitting in my retainer.

The biggest change to my steadfast appearance has been incorporating Shaded Spectacles into the majority of my glamours.

I pretty much switch out between reading glasses and the shaded spectacles with the occasional minstril spectacles thrown in for good measure.

My heart went out to poor Table Cloth the day /playdead was released, but the male Lalafel emote would make a really lovely tablecloth, so his gimmick is safe.

Get poisoned in an instance, leave instance, die due to poison because leaving instances doesn't remove status effects.

I can't help it I got it right on the first try. The 3rd haircut was to go back to my original hair.

I once fantasia'd into a mooncatte, then immediately regretted it and converted back. Otherwise, this is me.

I'm surprised I've been rocking a haircut other than my original for as long as I have been though.

I have never had a haircut before but as a MNK main and as someone who plans to do whatever it takes to get that cloud mount when it comes out in the UK, I'm going to get my hair as super saiyan as possible and go Full Goku.

I change my hair practically every time I change my glamour, which is like... twice a week. The hair needs to match, dammit!

I'm leaning very strongly towards fantasiaing to a roegdame for Stormblood. Just looking at the selection of hairstyles has me swayed.

I keep being tempted by the roegdame styles but I don't want to give up my catgirl animations.

In general, the localization team does a pretty excellent job of both playing all the gobbledy-gook flower-prose of the game totally straight while being pretty hilarious with their sense of humor when they toss it into quest names and other nooks and crannies.

edit: this is my favorite blog.

Having to gather 99 blue scrip tokens multiple times to be able to gather my own mats for ironworks gear is testicles. That is all.

Yes I know about diadem. Its still testicles. Its deciding I'd rather get kicked in the cock by spiked boots rather then cement shoes.

Alright, looks like I have a date night with Odin this weekend.

The claws are Lalafell meat hooks old tomestone claws that you can get now with hunt seals, I think? I still had mine lying around on a retainer. I went with them largely because they match nicely when dyed and I didn't feel like looking for other gear. The Patas from The Vault also work if you want to be an armored monk dual wielding punchswords.

The helm is from the Immortal Flames, so you'll either need to use the odin helm or something else if you didn't join the best GC.

e: Kinda want that Dreadwyrm(?) Katana.

Just under 11k at 1440p with max settings is acceptable.

Definitely not Dreadwyrm, they've said that RDM/SAM aren't getting Coil weapons. (They are getting primal and Alex weapons, though.)

Shire tank gear is a vast wasteland of Accuracy and Parry.
