Heroic Yoshimitsu posted:Is there no Level 70 job quest Dancer armor? I just finished the quest, and I got Technical Step but no armor. I guess the only reason I assumed I'd get new armor is that Monk got equipment at level 50 and 60, so I figured all jobs did. expac jobs don't get their artifact gear until they level cap that xpac. DRK and MCH and AST didn't get theirs at 50, only 60. Sam and RDM didn't get theirs at 60, only 70. Dancer and GUN will get theirs at 80

I started the game with it, and I'm still playing it, but I can see how people don't like it too. So it's not BAD the way MCH was last expansion, it's just...the same as it ever was. i have a friend who's played monk and enjoyed it since launch, loved it with tornado kick rotation in SB, but hates it now that they've taken that away and thinks anatman and SSS are useless. so... YMMV

Man, pugging raid content in this game is an even worse experience than WoW. What's the best static recruitment spot, is there a discord or anything where higher-level players hang out? I'm a CE wow refugee without a ton of FF experience but I know how to do mechanics.

But I've also managed to find groups to get two weapons already, and it's far less toxic in my experience than WoW was. I just go down through the PF list and pick one that looks good until I find a decent one.

I admittedly have pretty low patience when I think a fight is extremely easy (like, say, Titania EX) but the only group on this DC I've found that could reliably get past the adds without half the group dying hit enrage every time*, and I'm too nice to point out maybe the dancer pulling 5k should be replaced. I have a 3-wipe rule for parties that aren't explicitly for learning. Much prefer to be in a group of competent players I know.

funkymonks posted:Is Garlemalde confirmed as 6.0 or is it just speculation. I've seen it posted several times as if it's fact. In addition to the "oh it's the next obvious place to go, especially since we won't be shard-hopping again so quickly" answer, there's another factor that's making people think this as of 5.0: we've been getting progressively more and more Garlean assets set in Ilsabard for a while now, and now in 5.0 we actually get a reasonably developed look at an outdoor map for the city of Garlemald itself, complete with a scene taking place on a street corner. There's been a fair amount of work put into the Garlean capital area over the years, and it's going to be weird now if we don't go there at some point. So 6.0 being Garlemald seems a safe bet just from that alone. The asset work is already being done to make it a reality. Never mind places like Bozja re-entering the conversation courtesy of the Hrothgar.

So how does this cross-realm play thing work now? A friend of mine convinced me to play this game with them again, and in the interest of not being a turbo-nerd who outlevels them and becomes no fun (because our timezones don't line up perfectly) I'm tempted to make a secondary character to hang with goons. I assume I'd have to as my current character is on a different data center than the one listed in the OP. EDIT; we're on crystal - reading up above a bit it looks like some of you all play on crystal too?

TXT BOOTY7 2 47474 posted:Finished leveling AST and turned to WHM and not to drag up that discussion from a few days ago but jesus christ, it's like night and day. AST feels like a constant uphill battle in all content while WHM just strolls around like a god with three tools for every situation, each one with about twice the potency necessary to handle it. It doesn't really matter that AST can clear the content when it feels this lovely doing so. Once I finish dragging AST through the MSQ, I'm considering potting WHM so I can see if the grass is greener on the other side. Or level DRK while waiting and hoping for AST buffs in 5.1.

I've been enjoying the new DRK, though I'm not to 80 yet (using it to go through the MSQ). It's actually pretty strong solo now; it seems almost impossible to die, and you still do decent damage.

I just finished the MSQ. I've got some thoughts but its late and I'm tired as poo poo. I will say right now though that I was not expecting most of the last zone to take place in loving Rapture. That whole last area and everything to do with it was absolutely top-notch.

The music for both the post-MSQ dungeons is sick. The Twinning being a capstone to the "how the gently caress did they manage time travel" storyline is really good. It feels like bonus MSQ far more than most (any?) of the previous x.0 dungeons.

The big reveal for finishing all four Role Quests is pretty cool. The elven woman who kept showing up in the scenes but never got focused on was actually the Shadowkeeper the entire time. She was also a Warrior of Light of the 13th/The Void. The Ascians convinced her to come to the First and both create the Warriors of Light and be their villain as part of a goal to hasten a rejoining without creating another Void. Only she failed to kill them, failed to get killed herself, and then the Warriors killed the Ascians who sent her there and doomed everyone.
