Looking forward to the expansion after next, which adds seven races, all of which are different types of cat people.

This game is perfect for empty-headed dunces that don't like to think much!! Of course, I'm a genius... I wonder why I'm so good at it?!
More varieties of cat people would be a great way to sell a ton of fantasias

I'm not sure whose idea it was to make the Coerthas Central Highlands quests require like six levels in 10 quests, but I hate them.

As someone who levelled AST and DRG, yeah, but also as someone who has done way too many zodiac weapons I actually would put the second aetherite at Whitebrim Front. :shepface:

i recently leveled DRG to 50 in POTD, then went and did all the DRG 30-50 job quests back to back

the amount of times i just had to run straight north and south of the entire field because there was only one aetherite was loving infuriating

It would be funny if BLU is spec'd towards being lvl 80 and sucks rear end to play at 70 like other non-max-level classes, then they release it early and its just stuck at 70 for months.

RDM was pretty good from unlock to level cap, I thought. I haven't finished leveling SAM so I don't know if it's the same. Hopefully it is and they'll continue improving with future classes!

Groggy nard posted:

Honestly I rather like it :shrug: It's mostly just getting your opener straight and hitting everything on cooldown, with a few small tweaks here and there like hitting Mirage Dive before Gierskogul instead of afterwards every so often, or holding Jump by a GCD. It does seem like a mess at first glance, though. Also too much SkS sucks (which is barely more than the minimum.)

Though tbf downtime in the middle of a fight can screw that up quite a bit. In O9S, for example, you probably want to hold your third Dragon Sight much longer than you normally would, since you can line it up with Battle Lit in the second half without losing a usage of it! I imagine this is a similar issue for many DPS jobs, but I don't really play any others so I don't know.

It also kinda depends on the Gunblade, since it's an ongoing thing now. FF8 ones were the trigger 'splosions but stuff like Lightning's is just 'can both gun and sword.'

The Garlean's also have the 'can both gun and sword and also there's this attacked called innocence that hits a bunch and you can also shoot sword beams and it's pretty cool.'

Everybody over here talking about how much they want a new BLU tank and I just want to like finish my beastman quests without getting kicked off the server for 20 minutes again. I don't remember FFXI DDOSes being this bad, just updates.

Edit: So after my Return spell failed spectacularly I noticed a lot of fellow FC members mysteriously logging off all at the same time for some reason...

This is an unusual impact for FFXIV as well. Typically we get high latency with some disconnects when entering/leaving instances.

Sam has a level range where it specifically becomes shittier (52 to 62) because they add on the Kenki bar but your kenki gains are so low at that level that you end up having to not kaiten a bunch of things that feel bad to use without kaiten. For this reason I basically never Sam in sub-70 content and Sam is my main. It's a great job in the end, but I don't think any other class really trips over themselves about their dumb bar the same way Sam does. Mch comes close.
