From what I've learned, this means that they are now the only person qualified to complain about Fisher in the eyes of FFXIV's subreddit.

Going there was a mistake.

speaking of leveling, I'm kinda unsure if I'm super behind the curve or not, the scaling sidequests do kinda gently caress with that a bit. I just finished the first two intro zone questlines and got the 'alright let's start the Real Plan now that the twins are here' quest, I'm 71, should I do some roulette and all to at least get close to 72?

I'm hitting FATES as they pop while I do zones to get a jump on getting those vendors fully unlocked. Looks like it's going to take a LOT of them, multiple character playthroughs. I don't have any desire to do any sidequest other than the ones that unlock aether points and i'll. get all the interesting ones with a class I'm leveling just for the sake of doing so.. Will end the first two zones at 73.

Oh hell no, FFXIV's subreddit is sycophantic as hell. And they're also conditioned to laugh at Scholar mains complaining, while completely ignoring the actual Scholar complaints.

Who cares that your job is now extremely boring and absent of everything appealing that isn't healing!? You're still good at healing! Also, you aren't allowed to issue any complaints whatsoever about a job until you've hit max level in it, even if you were at what the max level was less than a day before, and have the reading comprehension to tell that the new expansion's abilities do nothing to address your complaints!

Dancer rules, the new headband rules, thanks to everyone in DGKK who was linking it.

Heavensward machinist made me convinced I could never love a class as insanely proc-based as this one, but wow am I having a great time. Definitely a little on the simple side once you get down what procs into what, but so far that's not bothering me. Real excited to get into the story tomorrow.

Don't worry, some of them will change again in the next expansion! I think some even change from there into ShB too.

Well got DNC to 66 before I'm ready to pass out for the night, I think I should be able to get to 70 tomorrow and finally start on story and see all the shiny new sights and have all the shiny new feels. Dancer is incredibly fun to play, it's really simple on the surface but you get into a very fluid, reactive gameplay style with the 50 procs you have. I cant wait to get Flourish to just light up my entire hotbar like christmas lights.

Also some obligatory lion man shots.

Linkshells are just big cross-server chatrooms, right?

Are there any goon linkshells? Not interested in server transferring/losing my house and tiny fc but I wanna chat with goons

Edit: Also, ACT is broken for everyone, right? I assume we need to wait for that to be updated (and/or the FF plugin?)

If there are any other Zalera goons, I've had an FC on there for a few months. We're currently called Um Glamour Lammy. IDK how applications/invitations work but hit me up if you need an FC. It's not a serious FC though so if you want that, either bring your own or go elsewhere.

So for 70 MCH, am I doing things right more or less with "do the 123 while weaving in oGCDs and using hot shot/drill when they're up until 50 heat, at which point hypercharge, wf if it's up and just go bananas mashing the gently caress out of heat blast and ricochet/gauss"?

I don't know how to reach out and ask for an invite on there but will try to figure it out tomorrow. A chill FC with some goons in it is exactly what I want!

you definitely want to hypercharge under wildfire, definitely keep drill and hot shot rolling, and DEFINITELY reassemble your drill if it’s up. the damage on a dh crit drill is absolutely nutty and the two come up off cooldown around the same time if you keep them rolling

but otherwise yeah you got it. 1-2-3, hypercharge at 50 because barrel stabilizer can slam you into cap if you’re not careful. dump your gauss and ricochet before hypercharge, though at 70 you cap out at 2 charged each so a weave during heat blast spam is necessary unless you want to overcap charges

They're better overall but yeah the sudden change is a bit jarring, you get used to them though. By this point the new voices have been around for a lot longer than the original ones.

I got a new (my first!) ssd yesterday an hour before the servers opened up so I set up windows on it and copied over my nice fully patched install over and went to work. Came back and it looks like something borked on both versions of XIV and I ended up spending all night redownloading all 3 expansions :negative:

I did get to fantasia into a bunno though and she's very pretty and tall and looks very done with everything.
