I did my first savage raiding as Black Mage this weekend… it was pretty exhilarating! Pulled off lots of cool Aetherial Manipulation tricks if I do say so myself. And I didn’t die that much either!!

It's been a while since I did the AST questline, but I believe they mention that Dalamud was taken as a significant celestial object and used in astrology for centuries before anyone had a clue what it actually was. It could be related to that, or it could just be a weird coincidence.

FF14's encounter design is so bland compared to WoW's that they could honestly just do what WoW does in normal dungeon trash packs by having the mobs do more than autoattack and sometimes cast an aoe and it would probably enough to offer a fresh experience that they could call a hard mode. Although classes don't really have any utility so they might be limited in what they can do for a group of 4 people. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Trash mobs do lots of aoes of all shapes and sizes, not just on occasion, and even interruptables or buff-allies-until-I-die mobs appear fairly regularly I was a fan of the marker AOEs that the dragoon enemies in a Shadowbringers dungeon pull out It's not partiularly deep but it's there

It was probably Allagans who decided that's what the constellation looked like and that knowledge survived to today.

Nessus posted:So you were able to successfully get a retainer onto Reaper? Has to be a combat class to level 70 for reaper. I don't remember the exact process for it because I did it a couple of months ago but I had to reset from sam down to a base class (I picked rogue) and then relevel that to 70 to make it a reaper. There should be an assign the retainer a job button somewhere, maybe under change class. I should also note that when you change the job, it resets the retainer back to level 1 so I had to level my dumb reaper nerd from 1 to... 88 or 89 I think they are now.

Lottery explainer is up! https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lode...paign=na_topics Here's hoping while the masses are in Ishgard trying to ring out a plot, some backwards ward of the forest will have less competition!

TheWorldsaStage posted:Lottery explainer is up! Kinda wish there was a global "Hey I'll take anything available" lottery, but presumably the week-long period should help with the need to find empty plots. It's just that initial land rush that will be awful. At least you can see how many people are in that lottery, though again an "open lotteries" that you could sort by participants would be great. I just want my little cottage I don't need it to be in the best Ishgardian school district.

Four of them were newbies, I don't blame those folks. The other two (two of us lived)...

Probably just the default pricing based on plot quality. Default pricing: Small 3,000,000 3,187,500 3,375,000 3,562,500 3,750,000 Medium 16,000,000 17,000,000 18,000,000 19,000,000 20,000,000 Large 40,000,000 42,500,000 45,000,000 47,500,000 50,000,000

TheWorldsaStage posted:Lottery explainer is up! I am hoping to get a plot in Ishgard but I won't be too disappointed if I don't. I've got a couple of plots in mind and I guess it's just a matter of finding the ward with the least competition for them. The thing I like about this system is there isn't a 4 a.m. rush to snag a plot but having to wait several days to find out if you've won or lost really slows things down. Beats endlessly clicking on a placard, though. I very much doubt there will be a second cycle after plots open up I assume every single one will be taken after the first set of lotteries resolve, but I suppose there may be some winners who don't build in the four days they have and lose their plot.

Legacy servers initially had houses that expensive, if I recall, but the prices normalized quite a while ago.

You need another like 500k on top of the lot price to build the house as well and you have to do it within a month or you lose the plot btw. I’ve found that rather than waiting for a gold rush, I’ve made more by sending my retainers on Quick Explorations and Greeding everything during roulettes, desynthing everything, and selling it all on the MB. It’s less dramatic numbers, but it’s more consistent and doesn’t use a lot of your own personal time.

Just finished the Little Ladies' Day quest (have been putting FFXIV for a while) and lol at how they're clearly choosing where to put resources, that was barely even a sidequest. It's funny how the repeatable quests have had the bulk of fun writing on seasonal events lately. Also open shirt Godbert is somehow even more overpowering than shirtless Godbert.
