TFRazorsaw posted:Anyway, is the trial against Rhitatyn one of the ones I'm supposed to run with friends unsynced or can I go ahead on that one? Run the trial in df. Run the next two dungeons with friends. I wouldn't even unsync them, but run with friends either way.

I'm not big on how unsyncing works, but like, most of my friends are higher level than me and not all of them can get on soon due to the christmas season, so I may not be able to get them all at once.

Unsyncing lets you go into a dungeon without a full party, and without level or gear sync. You'd have geared level 70s one-shotting bosses. I think the fights are fun and add to the experience, but if you need to go unsynced to watch the videos with a couple people, that's the next best alternative.

Only for cool level 70 buddies: I like to make sure the newbie sees at least one of Gaius' X attacks cause that seems to be a signature gunblade attack that crops up again in Stormblood and probably will show up more in the future, make sure Ultima gets to do one each of the Ifrit/Titan/Garuda attacks before you push to the next phase, and make sure the airships drop.

I honestly feel kind of bad for the guy. He seems to really believe in his boss, and we took him down in less than a minute.

That explains why I like his animations so much! It definitely feels like they're putting more budget into animation work now that the game has gone from 'oh god this is a money pit' into a smash hit.

Some Fate poo poo right there. Also that O4S mocap is perfect in every way.

Getting Westwind in Trial roulette is nice because it's fast, but I always prefer to see Shiva because bonus tomes. Ramuh and Moogle Mog can do that, but Ramuh can include a wipe and Mog basically always does.

A GM on the JP side of the game messaged something like 11 users to ask them to stop posting eroticised screenshots from the game on twitter. They say it's not against the TOS but if they keep doing it, it probably will be because this game isn't NSFW/18+. This is the twitter of one of the users. NSFW warning, no nude mods or anything. https://twitter.com/elise_ff14

All the credits sequences are skippable, you won't miss any cutscenes.

So I guess the lesson here is: if you're going to post lewd pictures of yourself online, don't do it with your (character's) real name.

Oh I didn't watch it. It just annoys me that I had to. It's a bit of weirdness from my autistic brain, if that makes any sense. I don't like feeling like I left something incomplete, so it's gonna bother me for a bit.

Don't worry you'll get at least 4 more opportunities to watch them

The credits can also be watched anytime you want at the main screen. Or..skip them to keep playing and have youtube play it in the background/another screen. Problem solved!

Well that duty was long and ended abruptly, much like me. In "A Spectacle for the Ages" is there a trick to beating Raubahn before he becomes Ravana or whatever at the end? I got him to like 4% before he cast Immortal Flame for all my HP.

I haven't played since the end of the 3.0 story content for a couple of reasons, although one of the major ones was the changes to how Bards played. Apparently they've changed them back so you don't have to be a stationary turret any more? In that case, I'm thinking of playing a bit over the holidays for that 4 day free "welcome back" thing they're doing. How are Bard rotations looking now, and can you still macro a bunch of moves to a single gamepad button like before to make life simple? If I wanted to have to think, I wouldn't have picked Bard.

You.. Can. You should absolutely not unless you want to be king shitter and waste everyone's time.

Yeah, never put more than one combat action on a macro at a time. Your GCD is something like 2.3-2.5 seconds, and macros can only wait a whole number of seconds, so you'll sit around doing nothing for .5-.7 seconds.

Of course the comments lead into defending lolicon hentai. reddit needs deleting. Do not macro your monk combos. Even on my i315 bad gear abandoned monk, I'm hitting 1.94GCD in GL3 and, obviously, your GCD changes depending on how many stacks of GL you have/Riddle of Fire so it's not like the macros are one size fix all even then. vOv was right on all levels but Monk is even more bad to lazy macro.
