Dun Scaith isn't that bad, its just hoping that at least 12 of the 24 people in the raid aren't complete mouthbreathers to carry the ones who are.

Does TPT do newbie Coil runs on any regular schedule? I still have yet to even set foot in there, I'd love to see it.

Nearly all of them change for the better, Alphinaud was jarring but ends up being real good, and tragically, the one character whose voice gets straight up worse is Merlwyb.  victrix posted:Does TPT do newbie Coil runs on any regular schedule?

There's no schedule but if you ask in FC chat when lots of people are on you're not going to have any problems finding people willing to do unsynced Coils, trust me.

I use Japanese VO because this game is anime. Gosetsu has a very cool voice btw.

I know I'm a little late to the SAM glam thing, but I'm disappointed so many of you are going for anime samurai and so few are going for anime yakuza.

So is the Bahamut raid behind that guy in Mor Dohna that leads to a quest where they want you to do 2 specific fates? I kinda gave up at that part since i figured even if i did the drat fates many people weren't even doing the raid nowadays anyway. Strange that a major character is basically only in a raid though.

The Bahamut Raid pointer is back in the Waking Sands with Urianger, after you've done all three hard mode 2.0 story primals.

Even in this pre-Stormblood lull. Reddit established Sunday as the day where everyone does it. It's a good source of poetics and it's an anima step.

And it's the best raid content in the game by far, provided you're going in with a premade group that wants to inflict fun on everyone.

final coil as a whole was some of the most fun I've ever had raiding in an mmo when it was current. all the fights are really fun and were super satisfying to beat.

Turn 13 is the best fight in the game. Even unsynced, it's the best fight in the game, it's that good. In a way, they kind of blew their load early with Bahamut because there's not much, if anything, that is as iconic in FF but would still make a great final raid boss for an expansion/installment. Alexander was a good try but he just doesn't compare. Josuke Higashikata fucked around with this message at 14:25 on May 28, 2017 |

While I appreciate that the majority probably agrees with you, having FF9 be my darling means they're both awesome to me. So Alexander did keep up... mostly, even as the deck is stacked against it. Mide is forgettable, within the context of FF14 alone Bahamut is a huge deal, and Alex kinda feels like a victim of the ruthless dev cycle Heavensward had*. On the flip side, it was a fun plot in places "Time is flat roundshape!", the goblins were amusing bad guys, some of the fights are genuinely a joy to do and the music is superb in just how loving strange it is. Overall? I'm glad when an antagonist gets their moment and then are done with. Clawing bad guys through the mud in an effort to keep reusing them is lazy at best, damaging at worst. Bahamut and Alex have had their time to shine, roll on Omega and the other guy.  .*Two loving drops per Gordas run out of a pool of three loving items and the horror stories surrounding A3S and A4S?! They say they learned from their mistakes and Midas/Creator shows that, but I really hope they never backslide into that kind of poo poo again!

Urianger's voiced lines were fairly limited in both ARR and HW, so aside from the fact that I knew he wasn't done by Gideon Emery the second time around, it wasn't all that noticeable, in my opinion.

Old Middy voice really bothered me with just how long and drawn out the end of every single sentence was. With the new one I felt like at least I'd be able to hold a conversation with the guy. Cryptic and vaguely assholeish conversations, but still. I wonder if he'll ever interject again or if he doesn't really care any more since 3.3.

Colin Ryan has been goddamn crushing it as Alf and Carina Reeves is Literally The Perfect Tataru. And Robyn Addison (Shtola) and Peter Bramhill (Thancred) have both really grown into their roles. I really hope they decide to stick with the London cast for the long haul, they've all gotten super good. I'll be curious to see how Yugiri v3 shakes out, though - the new actress (whose name I don't actually recall offhand, she's obv. super new) is putting a different spin again on it compared to the LA actress and to Sian Blake, who was trying to make her a little more obviously "foreign" with somewhat mixed results, though I ultimately still liked it.

Eleanor Matsuura is the listed name for English VA Yugiri in the 3.56 credits.

Zhloe sucks because Zhloe refers to Zhloe in the third person forever and it's very tedious. I like the idea of the bonding system or whatever it's called, hopefully it's a bit more fleshed out in SB

It's pretty clearly set up as something they expect to have more NPCs for in SB, since a whole special deliveries timer window just for Zhloe seems like it'd be a waste otherwise.

My only beef with Zhloe is that she lays on the starving-for-the-children shtick so thick I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop, like she's really been pawning things off to feed her insatiable anime coke habit. Otherwise it's just another reputation but gated weekly instead of daily.
