I'd bandwagon as well, but I have no idea how much of a hassle it is on the PS4 because I never use the screencap or share poo poo ever Also, the ilvl440 aiming gear looks... actually kind of nice It's a far cry from the SB starting tome poo poo which looked terrible for some classes

Potassium Problems posted:How are you guys getting your crafters/gatherers to 80 so fast? I tried to power through leveling MIN doing collectables but waiting for GP to refill/hi-cordials to come off cooldown was so tedious. Should I focus on leves instead? Got all crafters and gatherers to 80 and will have fsh 80 by tomorrow and yeah, it's leves and gc turn ins and doing the crystalline mean quests. Also always using the squad manuals, revised manuals, and food. Kinda think doing the gc turn ins for crafters that weren't starred was a waste but definitely recommend doing them for gatherers.

Also just gathering stuff for crafting leves provides a ton of XP. I like leveling up all of my crafters in parallel so that they support each other effectively.

I'm curious to see cursed optimisation. it's not particularly complicated. the idea is that now that flamethrower isn't tied to heat anymore, it can be used anywhere. the cursed optimisation comes from if a boss has a part where they leave the battlefield, you position yourself where they come back and pre-cast flamethrower. they should, if you're lucky, ideally take one tick of FT damage by the time you're able to actually target them and shoot them it's 100 free potency!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ayzJD2pmNMIEK19MWCF9Ps3TEw5FBJ82I8bQKoiQIFI/preview

Took me one afternoon starting with i340 gear from SB to get from 70 to 80. I did custom deliveries, and then nothing but collectables and job quests (hq turn ins only). I imagine your second DoL takes a bit slower with no job quest XP, since those turn ins would get me near a full level of XP. And while you are waiting for gp to come back, grind something to sell on the MB, like logs.

Those crystalline mean quests are no joke EXP wise, I just wish they were job specific and not grouped up

DorkBot3000 posted:Hey. gently caress off. Also;(late-late ShB stuff) Did anyone else have a mini heart attack that they were "Haurchefanting" us again with the Exarch? They give us the nicest dude on the planet to pal around with then; "BLAM" He on the ground. I yelled when Emet shot him. I'm glad poo poo turned out but in the moment I was horrified! All I want is an in-cutscene option to hug him. Please yoship, PLEASE just let me hug him once. He flat out cried when you called him by his real name, he moved heaven and earth to save your life, all he wants to do is be happy with you, just let me hug him once.

Hello all, First of all, ty to everyone who has been playing for years and still uses spoiler tags. I've been trying not to read this thread much. I'm having a blast on my newly rerolled preferred server double exp archer. I can't wait to be a bard. This games combat seems pretty easy so far but I like having to run away from the AOE zones. Though at level 13 I can facetank anything just fine so far. I'm a big fan of how easy grouping up for boss fights is, and I like that I can run past someone fighting a mob, shoot some arrows at it, and get some contributory exp without having to form a group. I wish there were chat bubbles, but also maybe I don't. World is real pretty and the tone of the story is refreshing so far. Got into the game because people rave about the story so I can't wait to get into the good parts later on. Ty that's all for my new player blog post. Fun Times! fucked around with this message at 06:31 on Jul 9, 2019 |

My friend noticed something interesting but maybe pointless. The final trial always takes place at 8:00 pm Eorzean time. We can't think of any other trial or encounter that does that.

AST lv80 job quest spoilers: After some astrology related revelations, the quest concludes with a recurring NPC from Kugane (Kyokuho) walking off and letting us know he’s going to be working hard on opening up a school for teaching Geomancy so............. yeah.

The biggest problem with MCH is that the bot looks enough like a person that I keep thinking I need to rescue or try and preheal someone for not doing mechanics.

Explored the dwarf area to my heart's content, burned the Fantasia I'd chugged a month earlier.  Man in a corset alert:  Ka mate! Ka mate!  Ka ora! Ka ora!  Edit: You know what I feel like when I'm running around as a Hrothgar? Like when I was playing an Orc back in WoW. I'm starting to think that SE might actually be onto something with the differentiated body types here. SwissArmyDruid fucked around with this message at 09:02 on Jul 9, 2019 |
