If you don't have a winged helmet as part of your glam are you even really a dragoon? My valkyrie has trousers though.

So I've hit my first lull in SB where I have no area quests left and am not high enough to do the next story quest (I'm about 1.2M xp from level 70). I guess I'll have to do a daily or something. It's just funny they managed to keep up the momentum of being able to non-stop quest until really close to the end. Renegret posted:If you're a Healer, the Tank is dumb as poo poo and you should've tanked. I have a lot of tolerance, since I do stupid poo poo all the time myself. Like I was doing one of the later Stormblood MSQ dungeons, and one boss had a mechanic where there were pillars and at least one person had to get inside each pillar, and then another mechanic where you had to get inside the pillar of the element the boss doesn't say. I was under the impression the latter mechanic was the only mechanic and somehow did not notice that the first was an issue. Which wouldn't have been a big deal the first time, but the second time I was so busy playing that I completely missed the guy in chat repeatedly saying how someone needs to get inside each pillar and felt like a huge dumbass. edit: I mean, on the upside I'm at least reliable after I've gotten through the initial phase of embarrassing myself.

It's nothing to SE but it's a bad look when fans see that a person was paid to write an article mocking a fandom's enthusiasm and wasting question time.

It sucks. It's also (probably) balanced by the more fair reports of the convention. Like, one jackass posting an article on a grog outlet about a nerd convention isn't going to affect their playerbase overmuch because most grogs have already heard about the game and made a call about it. And it's not like we're being generous about the writer's approach. It'd be a miss on SE's marketing department if the writer had a history of bad pieces made obvious through 10 minutes of browsing. Even so, he did poorly and RPS's readership isn't massive, so he's probably disinvited forever. Also, speaking as someone who's gone to and worked numerous fan conventions, people ask stupid poo poo at every one. It always stings when it happens, but by this point I take it for granted.

So I just fought Zenos-Shinryu. Party wiped like 7 or 8 times, lol. That fight was kinda tough, even after learning the mechanics I slid off the edge when the ground turned to ice and was knocked off the platform another time just because I was a bit too slow to get out of range of some attack. Most of the problems were due to part of the party taking a long time to figure out that they needed to stack for one of the attacks, though, so I don't take blame for that.
