Profit through piracy.

I actually think Merlwyb shakes out to being the least sympathetic of the leaders we've met just because her reply to Y'shtola calling her out on making things with the kobolds worse was basically "suck my dick". Like if anyone was going to genocide their local beast tribe I'm pretty sure it'd be Limsa.

Absolutely. As much as every city-state has difficult relationships with the beast tribes occupying the lands directly surrounding it, Limsa is the one with the most directly adversarial relationship with its beast tribes. Gridania is doing alright with the Sylphs (though they've pretty strongly stressed that the Ixal can gently caress right off) and I have no doubt Ul'dah would happily engage in trade relations with the Amal'jah if the latter were at all interested in that sort of thing, but Limsa very clearly just wants to wipe the beastmen off the face of the planet. Which is kind of ironic, considering the Sahagin are only interested in their own survival and the Kobolds give no shits about anything that isn't mining ore.

To be fair to Merlwyb, her nations populace are literal walking powder kegs looking for any excuse to kill one another, never mind anyone they consider outsiders - and not in secret like with Ul'dah's crimelords. The fact that the Kobolds and Sahagin haven't been wiped out is more a testament to how much she reins her nation of outlaws in. She just makes no excuses for the situation when Y'shtola points the finger.

If Merlwyb has a problem it's that a lot of her badass factor seems to be inferred. Like she shot a Sahaguin. Both Nanamo and Kan-e-Senna, to say nothing of Aymeric, have shown more courage and grit "on stage." I may be forgetting details, of course.

Six straight hours of Byakko extreme PF groups have convinced me that human beings are incapable of learning. This includes me because I did this for six hours. All I wanted was one parse run where I didn't die. Hommando fucked around with this message at 12:41 on Feb 7, 2018 |

The WHM quests in SB do a decent job of showing what can scare people so much about some aspects of living in Gridania. But enough talk, more catgirls!

I have had multiple days of byakko PF parties with "farm" labeled on them and I have came out with 7 totems and not the weapon I want. Doggo has dropped 3 times in those 7 runs and not one axe. After I get that I'm not touching the drat run again.

I've been putting full goon groups together and we've flat out been doing first time clears for ~half of the group and we still usually end up doing a 4 run farm by the end of the night. I'm really convinced we need a LFG (Looking For Goon) linkshell for savages and primals because I've rarely gotten bites on discord when I needed someone on short notice, and three free companies makes cross promotion a pain in the rear end.

Byakko Ex is not hard, but as a melee dps who sometimes needs to hold still for a few seconds to make huge bananas, I would rather he kept his balls in his pants.

Byakko lets you absorb a lot more "Idiot" moments than partydad did. But Byakko midloads all of it's difficulty and partydad slowly ramps up.

Saint Freak posted:Against better judgement I relocated and have to reset all my items. That's the plot I would move to if it was on the side with plots numbered 51 and up. The sun sets over the water and you have a perfect view. My house is actually right next to that plot basically where the camera is in Ward 6. The only reason I didn't is because as it stands my house faces the stairway and a rockface, so it feels like a little private island of sorts overlooking the beach.

Merlwyb owns because her method of figuring out whose armor is superior in the level 50 armorsmith quest is having people wear it and then have the poo poo beaten out of them then shot. If that doesn't make her the best I don't even know what to say.

I cleared the fight 22 times, so I was sure people had it down to a science. Cue me joining a party that wiped ten times in a row, not even managing to get the tiger below 50% HP consistently. The one time we got to enrage, Byakko still had 30% HP.

Man, I've been a bit spooked to try out Byakko EX, but I thought both Susano and Lakshmi were super easy (and fun). If you guys are saying it's even easier than them, I might have to give it a shot tonight.FaintlyQuaint posted:

SKULL.GIF posted:as opposed to which other fights...? Other fights are too, fair enough. But for example, on Susano when you get marked you need to consider for a bit where you're going to stand so that you don't gently caress over the party with the line AOEs. On Byakko, you always stand at your given mark, and you get plenty of time to do so. And like, the puddle mechanic where 2 players get marked. What's the point of that, even? The marked players hardly take any damage, the puddles are tiny, noone really needs to move at the time so just drop them to the side wherever. It's just even easier than Susano and Lakshmi were at release, but people have more trouble with it.
