Get around run animations by having your weapon drawn at all times.

That's how I deal with midlander life.

My bud plays a midlander lady and seeing a DRK with the daintiest little princess run is pretty goddamn hilarious, let me tell you.

Debating if I want to wake up early for patch or just embrace the few days before my 2nd summer classes begin soon. I do want to level DRK but tanks always rely on gear and RDM is my most well-geared job atm :sigh:

I wonder if we'll finally get that free 3rd retainer since both mines has been full since HW. Also, more inv slots since I need ALL the glams.

As long as you don't so some jank like wear your 70 gear all the way to 80 you'll probably be on the better side of tank gear.

And between MSQ and automatic dungeon rewards, as long as your DRK is in decent shape now I doubt it will be a problem. Run an extra dungeon or two to make sure if you need to.

I cant picture my WoL as anything but a fluffy potato being extremely rude to tribal people and threatening to murder their gods, but bunnies might make me change my opinion if their voices dont clash violently with animations

I appreciate that most of the viera voices are on the lower end of things, where the other races are about 40-50% varying flavors of high pitched squeals.

A story skip will unlock every dungeon required to progress through the MSQ, up until the point you've skipped to. You can still go back and queue for them later, as well as any optional dungeons that weren't required.
Just thought I'd mention that the story skip actually unlocks EVERY dungeon up to the level of the skip; you don't have to go hunting for blue crosses to queue for Amdapor Keep (Hard) with the ARR skip, or Saint Mocianne's Arboretum with the HW skip.

Yeah but I've found out you really cant trust the character creator because everything seems fine and then you attack with it and your character sounds like its a gerbil being squished

e-clicking through the viera voices, one of them during the second emote went "Whooooo!" in the same tone my catgirl in 1.0 would do a longer whooooohooooooo emote. It triggered so many buried emotions. Its voice 4 between

A few years ago I wasted my FFXIV trial (created a character then didn't get to play for the week or however long it lasted). I'm seeing now that new players can play for free up to a certain level. I just redownloaded the main game and tried logging in, but it says my account is a service account and not eligible for a trial. What's the cheapest option if I just want to try the game out and see if I like it on PS4? Is my only option to find a cheap disc copy of the base game and pay for a month of service?

The free trial nowadays is unlimited playtime, you're just capped at level 35 and can't join a free company, I think are the most important restrictions. I'd say make a new account, then you can take as much time as you need to see whether or not you like it.

If there wasn't definitely gonna be a long login queue, I'd probably use the screenshot tool to change my character and hear the voices without actually committing a Fantasia to it. But instead I'll probably wind up just rolling the dice and hoping it isn't too dissimilar.

I think this line is mostly filler.
Read back through the beginning of the old thread, and so now I'm kind of glad I didn't take the next couple of days off for the game.

Also I'm very much looking forward to changing my Drago man into a ridiculous bara catman. Who even needs hats amirite.

Six-Sided star is such a weird capstone, but there's a counter-cultural part of me trying to figure out every possible use for it.

Balance seems to think it'll fit before Tornado Kick for whenever things go untargetable.
I'm considering it as a possible flex skill to pause your combo whenever you have to step away from the boss for more than one of your ~1.8s globals.
Desperation move: You forget to switch to couerl stance and have less than 4 seconds on GL but the boss just came back.
Mmmmmmmaybe stacking skill speed on monks will make using OGCDs uncomfortable most of the time, in which case SSS can be used to drop in a shoulder tackle or elixir field? Kind of a long shot.

So hey, its got slightly more use than tornado kick.

Alternative use: get to max greased stacks and then only use SSS for peak lazy

If you put in the preorder key you're good for early access tomorrow, the real product key you can't use until tuesday + there's like a week or two grace period between the time the early access key expires and they make you use the real one.
