Minrad posted:they dropped combat leves but actually they should've dropped FATEs I wish everything could be more like the Moogle Beast Tribe. Watching the bar shoot up in huge amounts each quest hand-in is so satisfying. I wish FATES or the HW combat beast tribes could be even 1/3rd as nice. But I guess you get as much crafter XP as you do because you sort of need to level them all, unlike combat classes.

Oh, Menagerie. Haqen and I tried to help a solo-tank PF clear it the other day, and it was there I learned of the curse of the Red Mage: you can enable bad parties to stave off the inevitability of defeat for longer than is normal, make them think they aren't as bad as they clearly are. I feel like I was still second-highest DPS despite spending both of the attempts almost bottomed out on MP from constantly raising the healers.

Uh, is it even solo tankable? Don't both tanks take constant damage and need to stack on each other?

my group solo healed O1 last night and it was cool. not really a particularly exciting accomplishment but we're hoping to do the others before Savage. having a Red Mage really lessens the burden though

the akh morns do gently caress-all damage even when not properly split, even compared to something like zurvan's tyrfring buster in late 3.x. the reason they're obliterating tanks in your trials roulettte runs is that those tanks aren't bothering to hit any cooldown at all.

At least the BLM rotation feels really good and complete, and the only problems can be solved with some numbers adjustments. That's a lot more than what we can say for other classes.

i think they meant to cast on other people, since it was basically RDM's raison d'être in FFXI. I definitely expected them to get "Goad, but for MP"-style Refresh.

Did they ever nerf Chrysalis, or is it the same fight it was on day one? That seems like the cleanest analogy to the current Menagerie fight.

A lot are from XII too and a few are from XIII. I wonder when they're gonna start using FFXV assets. They even had Cardians in Bardam's Mettle. Pretty much the only FFXI mobs that aren't in XIV are Orcs, Yagudo and Quadav.

This is a problem rando tanks have for any content. I've had tanks pull 3-4 packs then just loving melt because they were saving cooldowns for dungeon bosses which are basically tickle festivals compared to trash.

Mr. Nice! posted:They've ripped a shitton of mobs and bosses from almost every final fantasy. It's kindof the point of the game. Well yeah. I mean for a lot of mobs they literally use the same models and textures from PS2 games. But it's not like it matters all that much because you always have the camera zoomed out. And if you have the assets already, you might as well use them. Some of the sprites from the SNES games look really weird in 3D. Like those fat Bhudda heads in Yanxia. Of course, a lot of those always looked weird to begin with.

Can't Square just fire that worthless hack Nomura and put the hundred billion Yen they were going to funnel into that moron's project into anything Yoshi does? Like adding more servers to help with these annoying lag spikes and 9k errors? Give money to a guy who takes a decade with his games or give money to a guy who turned around a failure in under two years. Hmmm, that sure is a tough one.
