Does anyone remember if tomes of folklore for gathering in hw had items added over time or if they always had more than the one per book they seem to have in sb? I assume the stuff there is to gather will become more valuable when they add the crafting recipes, but one item per book is still pretty unexciting.

Two weeks in and pubbies are still wiping in incredibly embarrassing ways on Halicarnassus. I hope Savage Halicarnassus is wild enough to break FCs apart.

I've actually only ever seen a wipe on the second one and that was the first day when people didn't get tentacles. A lot of DPSes eat poo poo in Haley but usually not to a wipe state.

cheetah7071 posted:All the Black Mages and Bards who position themselves like they're allergic to being near the boss are just making things harder on themselves most of the time These fuckers only get courtesy healing whenever I feel like it. If the tank and both dps aren't in range of aspected benefic at most times, then gently caress everyone. EDIT: Leveling ast right now and got stuck with a bard/blm combowombo in Doma Castle, both decided they not only had to be at extreme range of the bosses at all times, but in opposite directions, probably the most angry healing I've ever done.

I expect there to be bits that require some people to get frogged, with only one role being safe. So like one part will require your tanks/dps to get frogged, but there will be two Healer tiles so neither of them can get hit. That's just the baby version though I'm sure it'll get a lot weirder. Also fun fact for those who didn't know - if you have someone on every tile with the correct role then you get a big boost to your limit break gauge.

I was wondering why there were two DPS tiles The real mean thing to do would be to give people debuffs of some kind, then have tiles with those icons. Like the frog tiles, but adding in things like damage down, defense down, paralyze, etc

Verholy and Verflare should just be AoEs (and be enabled when you cast 3 E. Moulinets).

Isn't Pearl is just Holy with a weird translation? Also I appreciate that verholy has the balls of light spinning down just before the beam of light like classic FF game Holies. Exdeath's Flare and Holy spells used classic animations too and I loved it.

Countblanc posted:again, I don't actually think Verraise needs a nerf, the situations where you need to spam it AND can recover after having done so is basically a single-point list that says "raid fights without enrages" which isn't exactly challenging content in the first place. but i see it brought up constantly when talking about RDM utility vs the other casters and as Reiter has mentioned before SE isn't opposed to listening to the community The problem isn't really the raises, although having an instant cast raise that is always available is incredibly helpful provided they only need to use it once or twice in a fight since it frees up swiftcast usage and MP for the healers. The problem with RDM's utility, as I see it, is that they get a group damage buff on top of beating the other casters in overall damage. To add insult to injury, said group damage buff does not benefit other casters in any way, thus encouraging dumping any and all other caster DPS for RDMs instead and physical damage classes instead. I don't get why they do this sort of thing that limits valid compositions like that. Embolden, brotherhood, that should all affect magic damage too.
