Die Sexmonster! posted:Waitasec, who is Fray supposed to be a manifestation of? I’m gonna be honest, I thought they were based off your first class to 50, since they healed. They never say exactly who Fray is. My personal thought is that the Warrior of Light's repressed anger over all the crap that goes down at the end of 2.55, plus a soul crystal, leads to the part of your mind holding that anger possessing a dead guy. That said, it's not clear if the Fray you run around with from 30-50 even physically exists (outside of the 50 quest), or if they're basically a hallucination that can project a real form. In Myste's case, they're definitely that facet of your mind splitting off (possibly with some help from the soul crystal) and producing its own self. The WoL is presumably so powerful at manipulating aether that they can do this subconsciously. Knocked off the level 70 SMN quest tonight. It wasn't as good as DRK, no surprise there, but it was still a fun little romp. Also got the SMN tome from Castrum and the Plague Doctor Coat from Arboretum for my SCH, so book club is looking good, literally.

ArtIsResistance posted:Bought stormblood because I'm an mmo junkie who needs a fix. Is endgame still grinding 2 dungeons for tome cap or did they fix the Heavsward problemz??? You can PvP to cap now too. Well, you always could but it's been way better since they created separate limited and balanced PvP versions of the class' skills for Stormblood.

Second trip to the lower levels of PotD. Die two floors sooner this time (185) because of the same enemy (Chimera) again, this time because of an add aggroing me while I was in the middle of dodging The Dragon's Voice.

I think its the ink or the page I'm allergic too and it sucked bad I think they may have changed the cover of the book for this reason, I have one from the first print run and it has a funny smell and feels vaguely like a soft leather. I thought it was nice but I can see being aggravated by it. Later printings have the cover made of a different material from what I heard on reddit.

vOv posted:I honestly think that this might be a bug, though if it is then it's weird that they haven't addressed it. Generally, only quests that are story-critical or have large multi-part chains have them. I think it's just an issue of logistics: very few people likely read them, and it's a huge amount of extra work to do up and translate if you have a large volume of quests in the game.

The FATE chain came first, the mogmail quests were added later to flesh out  backstories for minor NPCs. Every NPC you deliver a letter to exists elsewhere in 2.x.Though in fairness until the mogmail quests I never even knew Ratata from the Upper La Nos hamlet FATEs existed since she's always either grumping behind a rock or buried under a pile of coeruls.

Trying to get my Warrior to 70 via Roulette's and I got Bardam's in leveling roulette. I had a Bard and Dragoon that both refused to AOE, with the DRG not once the entire dungeon using Blood of the Dragon and did nothing but spam True Thrust combos  Starting to think all the commendations I racked up while leveling as a DRG were not because I was a sprout but because I wasn't egregiously goddamn stupid

A lot of otherwise bad play is acceptable there, as a matter of fact. Speaking of, running SMN in PotD lets you play a fun game where you get to see how many Akh Morns you can fit into a single run. It's A Good Time.

Still, I can't help but wonder if knowing the rotations of all of these classes would help me get more commendations while leveling them. I do want that gold Magitek, but I'm only 2/5 of the way there.

It's related to what your cursor will target (All, Friends, Enemies, Others). The sword means your weapon is drawn, as I recall.

You were forced into the ARR rotation and hopefully you got your opening Fire3 off before the mob died. I haven't touched potd in stormblood because it's killed me on the inside.

That's why I try to always DF dungeons as a dps; there's nothing quite so painful as being the healer or tank in a run where both dps are garbage. Except for maybe a run where the healer is so bad they can't keep people alive but I haven't really ever run into that in this game.

I joined a Bardam's Mettle in progress as a tank at the last boss, and the healer was promising everyone that he was actually trying really hard! I promise! He then proceeded to use only Cure 2 and regen, and usually died before he could go OOM. I no longer join in progress dungeons.
