Really mad about how at level 82 the first move in the Monk's AoE gets replaced with one that doesn't shatter the ground.

Also I seem to have gotten to the last area in the expansion without having field battle music on and someone told me I missed some Easter eggs by doing this? Are there multiple themes this time? Oops

I'm kind of sad DRG loses the cool "woop woop" sound effect when Chaos Thrust becomes Chaos Spring. Chaos Spring has it's own funny sound effect, but it's not the same.

Yeah, Road to 80 is a buff that applies to your character and is active any time you're on a sub-80 job during its timeframe (usually 3 months IIRC).

Haste should be a moderate DPS buff, on par with other partywides, but it should make all affected players' animations go twice as fast. Also, everyone glows red while it's active.

You'd finally be able to see the whole animation for monk's blitzes!

Seriously why did they give tornado kick such a cool animation when you never see more than half of it in a normal rotation. The GCD is only two seconds! And you have chakra attacks to fit in.

I kind of get why they keep some consistency with lightning/aero for both ST and AOE, but I always kinda wanted this.

Same. Time Mage is my big want for next caster DPS. Maybe even if it has to be a dot class. Just give me lots of cool spell effects with clocks and gears.

It’s still in. There’s an npc in the 81 dungeon that still uses it.

It’s easier and safer to leave all the effects in, and just remove the abilities using them.

Something about not looking like ice or water spells, not being described as ice or water spells, and not doing ice or water damage was just too complicated for some.

They're from boss attacks, I recognize the rock and water ones. I think the rock is from Halicarnassus, where it summons it on tiles outside of the diagonal in the center, and the water is from either Mateus or Famfrit.

Also, the mod file is only 99kb, so I don't think they're including a bunch of shaders and animations :v:

Anyone have any idea if the "double exp to 80" is only applicable if you don't have a max level job? I really want to bash out as many jobs to 80 as I can.

My guess is it's the new Road To 70, so if it's active you probably have it for 90 days if it's applicable.

It does make very little sense that it was a bard thing but I won’t complain. It does look “old” in cutscenes though - the thing is so drat big and from a ps3 dungeon so textures are visibly jaggy lol. I feel like they really wanted me to wear the free gear they gave me instead which looks very nice

I’m so glad I got it but it doesn’t go with most of my BRD glams. I used it on dancer all the way to 80 though, perfect for a dnc

Also yes the one benefit to all those alliance roulettes always giving me crystal tower I guess

You can abuse that boat’s geometry and have it stick out into the road which makes it the best boat.

You could put multiple boats in a mansion yard and clip some Stone Vigil cannons onto the deck and have mock naval battles in front of your house. :pirate:

And also on the street from clipping your boats over the fence.
