nothing fills my blackened, shriveled heart with joy quite like seeing a dismissal vote pop and instantly pass against a tank with terminal main character syndrome. it makes an otherwise boring castrum run infinitely more interesting as i get to compete with the other dps for the honor of facetanking busters

pro-tip: when the healer tells you to put your stance back on the correct answer is not to double and triple down on your childish tantrum

what does the debimbofication of drk mean? should I go see oppenheimer instead of barbie?

ShB/EW-era DRK was basically made completely frictionless compared to SB and i think it's less fun. this likely happened because they correctly foresaw a flood of new DRKs with ShB's release and wanted it to be a good onboarding tank with little complexity

It's weird but I honestly have no expectations or wants for the next expansion, really. I just want more cool poo poo.

I think my big wish would be for that Blue Mage battle royale mode they talked about making it into the game. Also more voiced lines for B-team scions, let's get a dungeon with Riol, Alianne, and Hoary as trusts.

Yeah, for the most part I don't really have any expectations, we've kinda cleared off all the pieces on the board that I was invested in seeing conclude--as well as all the pieces that I was REALLY hoping would just go away already. I'd want to see Fantasy Australia, but that's just because I think it'd be fun. There's jobs I'd like to see, but I won't be mad if we don't get them at this point, I at least know why we don't have Chemist and Time Mage now.

I mostly just have things I don't want to see, but most of them are things that would be so abjectly stupid that I know we won't be, and just keep seeing completely unreasonable request/predictions for anyway.

isnt WAR significantly easier than DRK? I've been trying to learn how to play DRK better and all the goddamn oGCDs and blood and MP juggling is a lot to handle. compared to what (albeit little) ive played of WAR, there's hardly any oGCDs to worry about.

Sure, war is the easiest job in the game though. All the tanks are sitting at the bottom of the complexity list these days.

With Fan Fest just a few days away, I have a question about how SA handles it…

Is a special Fan Fest thread created for it? Or will info just be posted in one (or both) of the existing threads (this one and/or the Spoiler thread)?

I was still on my 10 year FF14 hiatus when the last one happened, so I'm curious how it's handled. I'll be at work both days, so I won't be able to watch the streams for it. Wherever the info is posted here will be my best bet when I can sneak some time to check.

Thats already kind of machinist with the drill gizmo.

If I was theorising about how to make a cannon unique itd be having the 1 2 3 combo with the first two steps for loading and the 3 for big damage. Maybe even modular ammo for special effects.

I know this wishlisting is pointless but my gamer DNA has been poisoned by self hyping since childhood. Not even hellgate London fully cured me

My weirdo FanFest job prediction is Evoker, a magical Tank that works kinda like Clive from FFXVI. Summoner, but you do stuff in melee range.

But I dunno Geomancer, probably.

I'm the opposite. Wanted it back then but now I don't. I will want it again if the weapon is a Luopan.

White Mage has mostly lost the elemental flavoring, so sure, give it to Geomancer.

It's also one of the rare speculated jobs that actually has an in-game weapon model already, so that's neat.

It'd have to be called Physician or Chemist since we already have a craft job called Alchemist. But yeah, I'd love something like that, just collect monster parts and Mix them.

I don't see that one ever happening because you'd have to switch jobs in a very limited time window which is already a hassle when you do that manually while you're waiting, making it a required part of queueing would just result in more dropped instances.
