I like how Noctis told me to use the voop action to get away from Garuda while she was pulling me in, then she pulled me back in half a second before the cast bar ended so I had no chance to voop away in time. Still survived with a hundred HP or so but geez.

He also ran to the tower I was *clearly* already standing in, the jerk.

Yeah, I had to do that fight twice and it did it both times. I did it the first time on Blue because what the gently caress else can you do with Blue Mage and uh, it definitely cannot survive that :/

One crazy FATE grind was enough, thanks.

I didn't necessarily mean I wanted a FATE grind.

And I didn't want the mount to be hard to get so I could have some sort of internet boner because "I grinded the hardest, now I have this mount and feel cool when other people don't have it."

I don't even care about personally ever having the mount. I just think that they've put in a mount that is objectively the best mount in the game (aka the only four person mount in the game) and made it cheap enough that anyone could get it with an afternoon of casual play.

Basically we're going to be seeing this mount EVERYWHERE FOREVER.

I wanted it to be hard to get just so that I wouldn't get sick of looking at it. Instead, now 90% of players will only use this mount exclusively and it's going to get really loving boring to look at.

I 100% know my reasoning and thoughts on this are dumb as gently caress.

Well, I doubt it's going to be the only 4 person mount for long TBH and even then once Waddling Otter or whatever comes out that'll be the new hotness and people will move on.

Hopefully we get a couple more 4-person mounts in Shadowbringers because it's going to get real boring seeing majority of the population using only one mount.

To elaborate on this, it gives you plenty of time to adjust your timing rather than mash the special duty action as soon as it comes off cooldown to time it right. You're basically supposed to pop it after she pulls you in. Once you sync your timing to that, and just mash it when it comes off cooldown, you've got the timing right for avoiding the actual cast.

Correct. You need 3 golds for all the songs. Clothes are from the main quest line. Hair, mount and TT card are from MGP. (230,000 total.)

It’ll probably be the de facto mount people use for passengers, but that’s such a small amount of time that you spend mounted.

Aside from maps, and maybe flying lazy FC-mates around for aether currents, the world isn't big enough to really necessitate passenger mounts much. Not to mention most people fast travel everywhere and you're automatically ported into instances. The car will be the new hotness for now but how many Namazu mounts do you see these days?

I guess hunts or rare fates like Odin could see some car use?

The car's only real "longtime" use is in Eureka, but unless it's for carting to NMs, even that's gonna be limited thanks to the disparity in levels making Challenge Log parties a pain to do nowadays.

But it will be a godsend for those people.

So I'm kicking rear end on this thing on DRK but my stupid handsome friend keeps dying. How do I keep Noctis from dying? Should I try doing it as SMN or something? I dread to go through an actual DPS rotation in this moment though. Or is Link-Strike doing enough that I could do it as a healer?

I've not had this problem as SAM. Just that awkward moment when you mash Merciful Eyes only to realize you are level synced to 50.

Neither did I.

I can only assume that it was because she just got DPSed down fast enough that Noctis's health didn't become an issue.

Also, I ate the microburst, because I was spamming the thing to try and get out of it.... still didn't die.
