1 Malm = 1.60 km
1.60 x 7 = 11.2
11.2km/s = Mach 33
Mach 33 = Escape Velocity

But this isn't happening on Hydaelyn. It's happening in an interdimensional rift. (so maybe it'd be more accurate to say you're not in the same dimension anymore)


Semi-related: I don't think I posted my clear pics of O1S and O2S yet so here (they're pre-Fantasia).

Speaking of dumb things, why is it that I can use Delirium when I don't have Blood Weapon or Blood Price active for zero effect?

Also since you can't use them at the same time anymore, why can't they be merged into one button like Fell Cleave/Inner Beast?

Mindjack is finicky as gently caress in O3S. Though it's now the only mechanic I still can't do consistently. Progress!

Is there any visual indicator of where to stand that makes you actually be far enough away after mindjack resolves?

e: it occurs to me that this would probably be easier if I tried to run parallel to the edge of the squares, rather than diagonally.

I just stand a little inside the aoe marker and point diagonally. I usually stop just right but occasionally have to make small adjustments.

It's also an mp restore, so just less effect, not zero.

The morning crowd on weekends is so much better than the evening crowd. I managed to clear O3S with a pug where I was MTing for the very first time since the PLD wanted to OT. She had already put the panels down for the enrage and died right before the final Game cast.

I play on Linux on a six year old computer. I personally consider it a miracle it works at all!

And yeah, it's nice to hear about more weekend raiders. I don't really like committing the time on weekdays. I always wished server resets were Thursday.

Just had a really fun Sirensong Sea run. I started off pulling the first pack, and I guess I missed the healer casting protect. That's not really a big deal, but apparently this made them very angry because they stopped healing me for the next pack.




Instead of kicking me like most normal groups, they decided to wait for me to drop and eat a penalty. All this because I moved out of range of protect. Fortunately one of the other dps dropped after waiting for 10 minutes.

Reminder that during the live letter when asked about Healer role actions, Yoshi-P said that Protect doesn't make a difference and that they left it in because people expect it as placebo.

Also correct, when this happens you twist the knife for maximum drama and funsies. If anything, you let them off lightly.

Why didn't you include the part of the conversation where you/they argue about not healing after the second pack? This screencap log starts halfway through the argument.

It increases the amount that your armor protects you by 10%. So if the enemy's true damage is 1000, and your armor reduces that by 20% to 800, protect will increase that reduction by 20, meaning you take 780.

I'm not sure what kind of damage reduction current armor gives though
