The best part about the snowman mount is that if you go walking speed, your character won't pop out of it. So you just have this kind of creepy smiling snowman slowly sliding toward you

Sadly S-E keeps fixing my favorite harmless bugs - used to be if you walked away from a target while spamming the face target button, it would play the "forward walking" animation for everyone else. My absolute favorite was there was a specific bug with the Behemoth mount where the animation of your character's gaze returning to neutral was messed up for some reason, so whenever you stopped targeting anything your character's head would very slowly return to facing forward, which I used to unnerve my static members.

I will die on the hill that the snowman mount is one of the best ones in the game.

The year they came out, I had gotten mine before my girlfriend had done the event, and she didn't spoil herself on what the rewards would be.
So, before she logged in, I hid myself in the yard in one of the igloo decorations while the rest of our static crowded around it, so she could see my nameplate amongst everyone elses, but just figured she couldn't see my avatar.

And then I started coming at her from out of the igloo. Scared the hell out of her, everyone in voice chat was cracking up.

I have macros so I can adjust effects easily, since I change between 24 or 8 person stuff and 4 person.

Spell Effect Macros:
/bfx party simple
/bfx other off
/petsize all small
/micon "At Ease" emote

and:
/bfx party on
/bfx other on
/petsize all large
/micon "Red Ranger Pose B" emote

It really depends on the fight I'm learning as well. I had to turn off even my own effects to learn EX4 since some of the attacks are broadcast by body positioning.

It's annoying because the clothes are very clearly inspired by Sami cultural attire but they're of course sensible and have proper heavy pants under the skirts.

You are not one of us.
They've updated the 6.3 patch website with some info on the dungeon, and a screenshot from it they didn't show in the last PLL.

So the town has something to do with Reapers, and at least one of the bosses, who I like the look of and is a doll?, is probably one of them or their voidsent. I'm curious on how this'll all tie together with the Void.

So the first tier of crafted sets in ShB (Facet)? With the exception of the tank set, for which they used the look of the Mhach set for some weird reason.

Levelled AST to 60 a few days ago, and today I did the job quests, thinking I only had 58 and 60 to do (I like to do the last two job quests in a level range back to back so the dramatic tension doesn't drop significantly). Turns out I hadn't even done 52, and had done the back half of my leveling without Malefic II. It says something about AST's abysmal damage that I didn't really think much of this at the time.

Do your job quests, kids.

Even though it completely wouldn't be in the spirit of the season, when the initial quest was "gather some children and take them to the secluded part of town for 'magic tricks' " I feared the worst.

Instead it's teaching a scientist the true meaning of ethically considering the wellbeing of their test subjects.

Not sure if I ask this here or if the spoiler thread is just for all spoilers, but I just beat Shadowbringers and had a quick question about the big finale:

So I gather that Ardbert doing what he did allowed us to hold ourselves together for one more go, but did we fix ourselves and permanently burn out all that light by exhausting it against Hades? Was Emet essentially just a big punching bag with which we used up all of the First's excess light on? Not sure what else you could have done with all that light, but I also wasn't expecting that axe throw to solve all our problems in one neat little package.

A+ expansion. Was a little worried it was gonna linger too long in the misery of the opening, but I think it struck a drat good balance. That kicked rear end.

Regarding the question for Shadowbringers:

Reunifying with Ardbert presumably gave us enough Soul Space or whatever to hold the light, or at least get out of Turning Into A Sin-Eater levels of intoxication. We blasted his rear end with our Kamehameha wave which burned off a ton of it too. Emet presumably is just jam packed with darkness.
