Don't get me wrong. She great, but I dunno... I think I'm still cuter.

Since I'm new to this, how are people taking screenshots like that last one that effectively gets the whole character in frame but doesn't make them tiny as gently caress?

Since you don't need to DA Abyssal Drain when you're not taking damage, the little bit of Blood Price and the occasional Quietus after the stuns have wore off are usually more than enough for MP

If you're not using it, definitely try out /gpose. It's got a whole bunch of camera tools you can use by pressing whatever your autorun button is by default, I think? The answer to your second question is that Roes never look tiny as gently caress. :v:

tl;dr of google translate: they are making more content like it, they plan to buff the support fate, the portal keys are getting cheaper, portals from support fate will probably be blue instead of instant red, they're changing ovni to make portals spawn a few minutes after he dies, feedback is very different betwee NA/EU and JP forums (likely related to NA/EU clearing it 'easily' with premades and discord and the JP preference for pugging getting kind of hosed due to how BA is designed), also he mentions that the content was inspired by wizardy and d2 hardcore.

Blehhh, I'm not sure how I feel about any of those as someone still trying to get his first clear. The ludicrous cost of portal keys is one of the few things letting you reliably organize a competent party via discord.

He always jumps the way he is facing. So you always go behind him and then left or right depending on which way the aoe is rotating

Unfortunately he can jump either north or south. We had more trouble with archive all than we did with HW2.

What a dick. Thank you for the responses. I wanted to check because there really isn't much time between him turning and you needing to get away.

To be fair I usually need a call out for Archive All because his fat rear end is sitting on top of the rotation direction and if I try to eyeball it I'll often go left when I should have gone right. (Always pop sprint there just in case).

Baldman Arsenal is TBC-era boss design and trash kept afloat solely by the fact that getting a sufficient amount of brain cells into the instance is a pain in the rear end. In that light, ensuring that five times more randos can sneak in and get pasted by Art and Owain makes perfect sense.

Is there a resource for crafting rotations to use as I'm leveling/gain more CP?

Currently at level 54 for all crafts so I have all the cross-skills but not sure what would be optimal at this point.

Enjoy. (I mean that unironically! Figuring out crafting rotations as you level and clear stat thresholds is probably the most interesting part of crafting.)

I decided to start working on completing my fishing log because I'm an insane person and started in earnest over the weekend using a tracker site that allowed me to filter by patch/expansion. I filtered it to only include ARR fish to help my inventory space and keep stress over missing things low and made some decent progress.

Then I made the mistake of filtering by "uptime" and popping the HW and SB fish back in out of curiosity and oh my god there are so many fish that are only even possible to obtain 1% or less of the time :stare:

Oh dang you found one point of similarity, you nailed it.

The bosses in Baldesion Arsenal are totally standard FF14 24 man fare boss. Every single one of them with the exception of one or two mechanics in Proto Ozma are poo poo we have seen before.

http://xivdb.com/ closed earlier this year, and that's what it's set to import from. So until it gets updated to pull from a different site, it'll stay broken.

Today is the day. The day I reach rank 8 with the Vanu Vanu.

I'm not sure why I'm bothering with this, since I already have the mount and I don't think they give anything neat at rank 8. But it's gotta happen. Next I will focus on the Kobolds, since I will have completed all Heavensward and Stormblood beast tribes and Kobolds have a cool mount.

DontMindMe posted:

I think I mentioned this a while back, but if you're leveling them all together, I would recommend focusing one up to 60+. As is you're basically wasting the Namazu and Custom Delivery experience you could be getting each day/week.

what do you mean that hotkey disappeared
I thought I was on the homestretch for Eureka Pagos a couple of days ago, just having to get 8 more forged crystals for the relic and knowing of "the strat" that involves abusing the Bunny FATE.

My plan got derailed because people have suddenly started doing the Bunny FATE, even though it is the least lucrative of all the available Bunny FATEs, just because its main reward gives people the chance to get a hat from one of the NMs.

I have been stuck in Pagos for two days because some clowns want a hat. :catstare:
