According to datamining, the new gear is a heavensturn-themed armor set with no helmet

Okay, yes, I remember seeing this earlier, so that's good.

I was hoping the Far Norther cash shop set, when I saw it datamined, was going to be this year's Starlight set and I was looking forward to it. I like it, but not enough to pay 18 United States Dollars for it.

I bounced hard off the first run of Hildebrand quests, do they improve significantly to make it worth following for the new weapons or can I safely skip the cutscenes and speed run it all.
The tone and content changes some throughout but you can skip all the cutscenes if you want. Godbert seems to be the only character who consequentially exists outside of them and you can take him on his own merits. :v:

Confounding Inspector Briardien also has involvement in a side questline in HW, which is very worth doing if you like a) having a cool robe, spectacles, and his eyeglass-adjusting emote; b) further observations of what your revelations in Heavensward mean for certain people; or c) high school anime.

I thought that quest line was neat and interesting since I had an interest in the Ishgard clergy as a lapsed Catholic myself. I was disappointed when they closed it off early, but happy that Hildy was so good.

Complete a yellow sidequest from some guy standing in the shopping zone alleyways, "Keeping the Ledger", then "Contradicting Convictions" will start you on the rest of the questline.

There’s a prerec quest in Ishgard’s markets and also you need to finish ARR Hildy. Then the starting quest is also in Ishgard’s markets.

The /spectacles emote is great but it is one of the emotes that looks different depending on your race and gender, fyi. But don't worry because every one of them is good (imo).

You know what's pretty demoralising? Being near the end of a Praetorium run and then disconnecting just at the end of the four clones phase. Not fun in the slightest after all that time.

If it's for tomes you can get in like five or six battle of the big bridges in that time for 12 tomes

The tools of a hero mean nothing without a solid core.

Confession: I prioritized my endgame tomestones gear based on "where does my BiS come from", but when I finished that I forgot to upgrade my 610 gear to 620 afterward. So this week I gained something like 10 average level.

Yeah, I did the Main Scenario Roulette mainly to level my Red Mage to 70 and get tomes. I might follow your advice and do the first Gilgamesh trial multiple times since at least I won't lose alot of progress compared to Praetorium.

I've occasionally used it for a decent approximation of a 'hat tip' emote for women. Depending on the hat the hand goes to about the right place.

EDIT: Also, completely unrelated, but it's occurred to me that I'm really disappointed that at no point in the custom delivery tradein for the Luncheon Coffers is the word 'unforgettable' used. The new localization lead's doing amazing work and I love her, but if there was ONE TIME for Koji Fox's love of Simpsons references, it was exactly there!

I'm kind of underwhelmed by this holiday mount. I really wish it didn't just look like a regular rear end reindeer. I wish it had like a christmas outfit on, or ugly christmas sweater, lights and ornaments on its antlers, etc. stuff like that. leave a trail of gingerbread cookies or something when running or flying. It's really just the special mount button, and occasionally it'll run on the air in a very santa's reindeer fashion. I want the most tacky christmas decoration lookin rear end reindeer ever made. Like drat give it a rudolph nose at least

If they made the reindeer mount abnormally over-festivized, then people would be asking for a regular-rear end reindeer mount.
