I can pick out the chorus of Dragonsong/whatever the gently caress the Ishgard city theme is riffing off of in literally every track in Heavensward content that isn't Alexander/Warring Triad and it drives me up the wall, they at least try to play it off a bit more in Stormblood.

lol this Ninja quest. I like how they're bringing back the old Thief class quest folks, since it bugged me how they'd disappeared for some other jobs (like Bard, at least through the Heavensward job quests I've done). I'm pretty sure they maxed out the muscles on this Zakuro lady.

Stormblood mostly bring back the class guys for their Job quests. You have some weird cases like Bard, though, where the best you get is talking to the Archer and Lancer Guildmasters once and then them not really doing anything afterwards. The Lancer guy doesn't even factor into Dragoon quests!

I'm just annoyed that we finally get a raid tier with 4 originalish bosses and we only get one fully new song. eScape is great but having the final boss themes just be Makers Ruin mk 2 and 3 is really underwhelming compared to Rise.

If you look up NPCs on garlandtools.org/db/ you can find their appearance data and what exactly they're wearing, what their sliders are set at, what face options they're using, etc. In this case, she really does have the muscles at 100 lol

PSA if you’re standing right next to a vendor in an alley and someone keeps running up to that vendor and runnin away, then coming back a minute later: Please take your lusty maid chat to somewhere else, or at least to a channel other than /say. No I don’t have screenshots, but “bends over for her spanking” was used during my third to last trip to getting Weaver to 45.

The Burn is great and it makes me sad when the epic music gets swapped out for the SB generic boss theme for Mist Dragon - which, to be fair, is a pretty good theme but I've heard it a billion times before and anytime I'm not literally fighting Xenos it just feels boring.

O11N is the most effective pub slayer I've ran into since Vishap. People just absolutely can't wrap their heads around Starboard/Larboard and the 180 spin, and then you add in Mustard Bomb (which has a habit of smearing tanks even when I warn them ahead of time that it's an actual tankbuster for once) and Blaster which some dunderhead inevitably drops in the middle of the party, and the constant pressure from fist rockets on top of all this. It looks like almost all the decent players have wisely stopped queuing for O11N because every single group I get put into has a newbie and a bunch of people who barely have any idea what they're doing. Other normal fights this tier don't have this issue. I just want my spring!

O11 is the new O7 and since I don't need loot from it anymore (including the music), I'm fine not touching that ever again. Stop dropping Blaster on everyone, you fool.

I think O11 is a bit like Rabanastre in that there's a disconnect between what people actually die to and the funnier, dumber reason the community decides to say they die to. So in Rabanastre, which definitely had massive amounts of death and even wipes for weeks, there were memes galore about people not being able to do simple math, but in my experience where people would really get mown down was during the rotating laser move, when people who tried to strafe or who just weren't close enough would just melt. Still sort of a silly reason to repeatedly die, but a less viable chokepoint for jokes about pubbies being bad or whatever. In O11 I think after the first week or so the majority of players knew intellectually where to move for Starboard and where to move for Larboard (although I had a pretty snotty tank the other day who called them Starbort and Lambert and kept insisting they were flipped). The issue is that the AoE isn't really a straight line bifurcating the arena-- it bulges out and if you run just a bit too far into the safe area it's easy to get clipped by the second cast when it turns. Maybe I've been spoiled by decent groups but I see many, many more people get hit by the second cast, after it flips, then by the first, often as people are running to get to the right side. Of course a lot of this could be solved by just standing closer to Omega but you know, casters. Again-- a silly reason to get hit and if you straight-up die because of it there were probably other mistakes being made, but it's a lot more understandable than "people can't tell left from right."

I mean I freely admit I'm an idiot and bad at video games or whatever, I'm old, sue me. But having run it a few times a week it's obvious that people tend to fail it pretty often, and often responding correctly but a bit too late, and I wonder if adding 250 or 300ms to the cast time might make a world of difference. I mean people will still mess it up but it'd be marginally less party wipey.

Funnily enough the starboard/larboard thing is purely a westerner issue, the kanji used in the Japanese equivalents of those words are literally just "Right/Left + Boat side" (右舷 & 左舷).

The One Weird Trick that made everything click for me was to always align my camera the same way as the boss is facing. So after the first cast I just spin my camera 180 degrees. I know intellectually this shouldn't matter, but it removed any thinking I have to do except for the simple "cast bar says left-dodge right" reversal.

I always think about it on a same-opposite basis. If the second call is the same as the first, it'll be on the opposite side the first one. If it's the opposite call, it'll be the same side both times.

See the tether, run to opposite corner, watch 7/8 of the party hp disappear, laugh as I flawlessly do my Wildfire rotation, then cry when I get agro cos the main tank died to the t-buster.

So I started with this But then I bought a three pack of fantasias on sale...  This lasted about 3 days before irritation at choosing the wrong jaw got to me, which resulted in  I've got one fantasia left and I'm supposed to be sitting on it until fanfest in November, which I'm pretty sure will be when Viera will be announced as foretold in the leaks... but I swear, it calls to me. But do I go back to highlander or try a gimmicky black cat look...?
