Hey FF devs I would like it if you would take a break now on the "the outside of the boss arena auto kills you" now. That's enough of that.

I mean ideally the thing that hides other player effects should hide summoner summons as well but it doesn't.

edit: Also the pet size is set to small. I need an extra small or extra extra small option. Make them minion sized

Two LB3s?? Crikey how long did your attempts last?

I want to say the last pull was at least 12-13 minutes?

But yeah, we dropped to half, a healer LB3d to rez four people (three of whom immediately died because we died to the deathwall and rezzed in the deathwall), and then we managed to recover. Also, someone had time to go 'sorry guys I need to leave please kick me after this pull i need to bring someone to ht ER' and then, a couple of minutes later, go 'actually someone else is brining them to the ER never mind' and get rezzed.

It was kind of hilarious.

I'd give Panda part 1 a passing grade. Perfectly acceptable but at the same time not very compelling. Dorkula is no Titan car.

Onean posted:

Aside from Elidibus's robes, It's from Emet-Selch, when Venat first shows up. I think Elidibus explains his white robes way back in ARR when he and the WoL first talk, though I can't double check right now.

White robes are for those who are proven impartial and trustworthy, or something like that. They didn't directly link to a seat, present of otherwise.

SirSamVimes posted:

That's not a mystery, it's basically stated. He has a white robe, refers to being part of the convocation and in the teaser he even had Elidibus' voice.

He's not part of the convocation. He said he works with an organization that works with the convocation. Teaser voice was still 100% our Elidibus though so he's either lying or will take the seat eventually.

Yeah. I understand why they kind of phased them out because you were stretching some of them a bit thin and it was nice to have plots actually resolve instead of another five expansions of "Okay, but we're REALLY going to cure Tonberries eventually" but it does make things feel a bit more empty.

If they do role quests I'd like to see them feel more geared towards the classes. Like give melee DPS a fighting tournament or something, give ranged DPS some sort of traveling carnival, give healers a plague to battle, etc, etc.

Fandaniel breaks the pattern a bit but sticking himself into Zodiark may very well qualify for Step 1 and Zodiark blowing up is probably Step 2. Plus, the dude wanted to die and might have simply not tried to save himself like another Ascian would.

89 Dungeon spoilers
Fandaniel didn't kill himself when he went out with Zodiark. He shows back up in the 89 dungeon as Amon (He states "Even after all these years this has always been my favorite form" when you pull him) and at the end Asahi shows up and decides to drag him down specifically because despite wanting to bring the end times he was too much of a coward to take himself out. Also the whole bringing about the fall of the empire which Asahi really, really, really liked.

More spoilers for same. Pretty sure he died, it just wasn't the end of his soul. Since everyone else you encountered down there was dead, after all.

It's not good for your health.

:frogc00l:
I decided to blind run all of these via the Duty Finder. Was good. Blind runs with random folks continues to be enjoyable.

The highlight was that I duo'd the last 25% or so of the 2nd Boss with a fellow Warrior tank. We Holmganged /Taunted the Shared Tankbuster to allow each other recovery time from being reduced to 1hp, Shook it off and Nascent Flashed our way to the kill. It was genuinely some of the most fun I've had in this game.

I've settled on the opinion that Normal mode is mediocre overall and I'm not really excited about repeating most of the bosses, story is good though.

The fourth fight was actually not that bad once I internalized what every attack did, though I missed the tell for whether he does a cone AoE or a KB when he jumps to the edge

Also the healers got to find out the hard way that Healer LB3 doesn't work when half the party is dead on the death wall :haw:

So that was two clears where most of the party was dead and the boss got finished off by 2-3 people with no healers up.

I guess I didn't notice that. Savage probably won't offer that tell though!

Speaking of, I'll laugh if the savage P4 bonus phase is just this original-character-do-not-steal Dracula transforming into one of Castlevania Dracula's final forms with the serial numbers filed off.

give P4S an additional mechanic on the teleport sword/cape where he can also shoot three fireballs (or two big...lava orbs?) as line AOEs

what? the whole reason he's in the 89 dungeon is because he's dead, the aetherial sea is where dead people go. that's why moenbryda and haurchefant and papalymo are down there too

I imagine altering the actual options menu involves a deep dive into a bunch of messy-rear end legacy code. The chat command's not especially obvious to people that aren't told about it, but it's also much less likely to make something break.
