GOTTA GO FIST
I'm trying to put out as many feelers as I can cause I rarely get a ton of time to play. Could I get 7 goons to help me crunch one (or both I guess) of the new EX primals? In-game name is Quiorra Son. Shoot me a message on Discord or a Tell or whatever, I'll be here all day.

I don't think I've ever target locked voluntarily in this game. Is it a melee class thing?

It used to be so that melee could keep hitting their auto attacks while moving for positionals, but then they fixed that and now it's only a thing broke brains do cause it cripples your movement for no benefit.

Character gen stuff

This is from a few pages back, but I want to mention it's kind of frustrating that our character generator isn't more robust. Specifically I mean ours, as in what we have access to as players. There are plenty of NPCs with very unique facial shapes and features that aren't available. Yotsuyu is one good example, as she has many unique features.

I mean apart from being overly dramatic that's a pretty reasonable post. Housing has always been first come, first serve. That they're big housing mogul fish in a small server pond is irrelevant.

What I want to see is the OF(?)/Reddit drama that sparked that primmadonna reply.

I'm ashamed to admit that I one-run'd Susano Extreme with full Slaying right-sides on my tank.

It's shameful because the picture of the future this paints is awful. People are going to have issues in DPS checks when the actual raid content rolls in and tanks are going to respond with "lemme put on my i270 accessories" and get mashed into the loving ground by every tank buster. Even with full Fending on my WAR with the maximum possible HP in the game, Susano EX's Stormsplitter does 95% of my HP without cooldowns, which may as well be instant death because of the auto-attack that immediately shaves off the rest (and because most pubbie tanks I've ran with don't have the sense to Provoke during Stormsplitter's cast bar instead of after). Future bosses are going to hit several magnitudes harder.

It's the 310 casting skirt you get for Verity tomestones. It's a good skirt, and gender-agnostic!



The only thing I don't like about it is the unfortunate weird gap in the front, which is strategically covered by the robe if you fully gear up:

That's definitely a new feature, and it looks like it's the time it takes to hook a certain fish. So for example with a pill bug on your line, it would take 14 seconds to hook an ocean cloud and 15 seconds to hook a merlthor goby.

Now that I've got my RDM situated pretty good I'm looking to level up something else. I've got WAR50 from the ARR days, is there a decent guide on this strange new WAR world I'm tempted to try out again, alternatively I'm thinking of trying DRK, anything useful there for a newbie?

How do you hit the ilvl requirement with 270 right side? Is the game actually dumb enough to let you queue in gear that meets the requirement and then switch out once you get into the duty?

Only if it starts being a problem. It's been pretty benign so far but if harassment starts because of people equipping or not equipping i270 jewelry they'll fix it in the next patch

only bad tanks get creamed. good tanks are going to do what they've always done. pop invul, tank swap, pop invul, swap, pop needed cooldowns, swap, pop needed cooldowns, swap, repeat forever. This works on every fight in the entire game. every single one, you never run out of cooldowns between tanks. take susie ex as a learning opportunity for getting used to this, and then do it on other fights even when the tank busters don't force a tank swap.

now I'll agree the str change is bad and the devs should feel bad for changing it, but it just means we're back (for now) to gordias style tanking. If you skipped that era (good on you) then may I welcome you to the world of hp thresholds. take only what you need to survive and nothing more. christ though is it a dub loving thing to change and i hope when they see that everyone's calling and using the 270 slaying stuff as bis for literally the entire expac, they get off their butt and change it.
