You probably can't romance Ysayle unless you're some kind of elder god LARPer anyway.

time to write the Ballad of Longhaft

You stand sword drawn facing Qiqirn threat,
Outnumbered ten to one with your household-of-three;
Yet bound by duty, you remain ever erect,
And thrust into melee with blissful glee.

Oh captain, cocksure, bulging with pride,
Sapphire and Ruby they share in your toil;
Over levers unseen, long nights by your side,
In efforts eternal, applying ever yet more oil.

I watched from afar my heart yearning but fierce,
To assist your struggles, of this I did plead.
My heart, your response to me, did pierce,
"Another hand on the lever is the last thing I need".

Oh Longhaft please reconsider this fledgling engineer,
I need 6 months more apprenticeship to start my career.

I almost ran into another wipe on westwind the other night because half the party was first-timers but we pulled it out with half the party dead. At least this time I knew what to yell at them to do better if it did turn into a wipe

Westwind is brutal, man. They honestly ought to retune it or make the current build some kind of Extreme/Hard mode fight. Sure, it's just a little tricky for us end game geared assholes, but imagine sprouts back in the day just suddenly hitting this wall.

Duty Finder means that Rhitzy will be dead in seconds, though. I mean, yeah, those adds hit hard, but they barely ever have time to hit anything.

It's extremely rare, but I assume what's happening is that once in a blue moon you can end up as the odd man in a premade group of people running through the MSQ for the first time or something. That's the only explanation I can think of, unless the game does its best to match the lowest level people together or something, but the odds of that many sub-50 individuals queuing for westwind at the same time actually seem lower than just a group. Anyway I've had the privilege twice (and the first time was my first time too)

And, unless I'm misunderstanding something drastically, definitely don't use the Ariyala bis solver with its default stat weights. It says it still gives 0 weight to Direct Hit points so it should be completely wrong.

My understanding is that FCs can buy houses and anyone with a house can relocate.

If you're on Hyperion you should absolutely go to bed right now.

I think private house relocation is fine but only FCs can acquire new houses. So like if everyone moves their poo poo to Shirogane there'll be an equal number of newly vacated lots in the other developments.

its not been updated since HW, stat weights don't really work like that anymore, and in any case its not that needed since the death of accuracy.

Your best stat is either DH or crit so just go for the highest ilvl piece that has that, you don't need solvers anymore.

(i'm sure theres some edge cases but eh.)
