You are not one of us.
Ooh, Ranked for Crystalline Conflict is Solo-only, so that should hopefully severely reduce the usability of win-trades.

And there's only Quick Chat in Casual and Ranked, so there's going to be less toxic rear end in a top hat poo poo to deal with.

Still a 30 minute penalty if you dodge, which is significant since matches are only 5 minutes plus overtime.

Something about Portraits they didn't cover in the PLL:
  • If you set a portrait to your Adventurer Plate, the Job and equipped gear will stay static for that Plate until you update the portrait.
  • You can also set portraits as an Instant Portrait, and these will automatically update with your Job and equipped gear.
  • Portraits can be set to a gear set, which will automatically set it as the Instant Portrait when you swap to that gear set.
  • Instant Portraits are used for introducing your character. Currently this is only for Crystalline Conflict, but they do plan to extend the feature. (Mahjong was specifically mentioned in the PLL, for example.)

I'm assuming they've also added the new draw and sheath animations as emotes, which is nice. That unfortunately makes it less likely they'll be the default when we do that outside of using the emotes.

I'm really curious as to whether this will trigger if your target dies mid-cast. Not being able to fire off a single spell because the monsters I was targetting kept dying is one of my biggest issues with dungeon BLM.

So it looks like Troll mount is tied to doing Unreal content. I really want that mount but I also generally don’t do hard content. Will have to see if there’s a goon group that I can join that will be running.

And a big waste of Summoner's big summon attacks, which just don't go off if the target dies.

Unreal is also typically not actually very hard. Leviathan was a huge pain in the rear end due to old encounter design stuff so if that scared you off it won't be a problem this time around most likely.

Ultima was an easy fight iirc. He did have a few wipe mechanics but it's a very early fight so it shouldn't be much mechanically.

The deal with Unreals is that the sync is tuned to be similar to min iLvl back in the day so you actually have to put effort in DPS.

Probably skip the beginning and end cutscenes but not one in the middle.

Just FYI: if you're a girl that wants the Boulevardier's Ruffled Shirt for next patch, now's probably the time to buy. Boutique Batiste only comes from Eureka Pagos, and people are snatching up the raw mats en masse, so the price will probably spike up pretty badly by the time the patch drops.

I had been planning to do a replay of ARR since the rework. I started an alt when 6.0 came out and pretty much played up to the first dungeon before getting distracted by other games, pretty interested in playing more on him now that ARR's been tweaked majorly again

I actually did a copperbell hard for my numbers yesterday. Upon zoning in, the healer had some macro to say in party about not fearing cos "heelz is here" or something dumb. I retorted with "Ah, the worst part of copperbell. Macros." and got two comms for it at the end. :3:

Luckily you do have a few seconds later to attack another target and they’ll still do their big attack before leaving
