Concurred posted:Is there any feather gear for casters? I have Suzaku's glowy book but can't find anything that looks phoenixy. I know there's the Replica Dreadwyrm gear which has the dragon wings, but... not the same The Ravel Keeper's casting set has some feathers on it and you can dye it. The headpiece, for example, has a peacock feather in the back, but dying metallic orange makes it look a bit more phoenixy. The Black Griffin ilvl 180 PVP set is also kind of feathery, though it's got big griffins on the side of the robe, naturally, so it may not fit the theme. There's also the Peacock Attire from the cash shop, but it's not super feathery. I wish you could dye the Edencall earrings that look like little feathers.

You could try the birdhead gear that I use with my suzaku weapon. Level 86 buyable for gil helmet for casters.

I usually stay subbed until the odd numbered patch and then unsub after doing the beast tribe

I'm usually always subbed, even if I don't play that much. The tragedy of being a homeowner.

unless the markets have shifted the fragments that drop from BA chests are decent moneymakers and enough of an incentive to run it multiple times alongside the change of getting the rarer minion/weapon glams

I know legacy raiding terms have a way of sticking around long past when they were useful, but if you have a RING weapon that hits a RING around the enemy, calling it Dynamo is just trying to be smug about how oldskool you are while people die from confusion.

surely we could just go back to the argument about whether Eureka is good or bad. I much prefer that to "actually you're a bad person if you use X terminology for Y mechanic."

if you said "arena splitting line coming from the middle of the boss" that could mean several things (is is a random orientation? fixed orientation? does it always point the same way as the boss?) and also takes a ton of time to call out and a ton of limited characters to say in a pf description if you want to describe your pf strat

I do call out 'bait' for the ground puddles in P4S act 2 which don't repeat and don't have any accompanying aoes, but you move pretty differently when it's repeated, enough to deserve a different name in callouts I wouldn't describe what you call chaser as panto at all

I do agree that there's one place where this kind of jargon should never occur: guides to fights. Call mechanics by their proper name, with full descriptions that assume no experience of previous fights in guides, imo. Maybe put in a bit saying "you might see this called flamethrower" if you're feeling spicy.

I call the one in alliance raids a lot where one person gets targeted and has to run from following AOEs 'feint' or 'feint beam' because I'm pretty sure Cloud of Darkness's Feint Particle Beam is the first thing that does it? I guess Eruption kind of, but it's not really the same.

Googling ff14 panto just turns up the pantomime emote. Are you talking something like (Endwalker EX1) Phlegethon but ONLY when it's used right after Exoterikos? That seems like a narrow definition for the sake of callouts if used outside the fight where it's directly called that. I'm a big fan of callouts directly linking to what you're supposed to do as opposed to being tied to a specific fight. Some specific combination of actions (taunt and hug) can be called Grace for P1S because that's the name for it, but it's not a term that's going to stick around for that same combination later.
