Whoa! You're gonna be a legend!
Here is my review of the alliance raid:

If you played Final Fantasy XVI this year you know how you can be playing that game and not be at the Good parts and you're getting a little bit checked out but then you get to one of the Good Fights and all of a sudden you are 1000% checked in? Basically that. Yawn, yawn, yawn, WOOOOOOOOAAAAHHH that is my review thank you

Welp. Just had the best map run ever. Party member hit the golden ! on first room of Elpis Roulette. And we made it to the end. So that was 1+2+3+4+5 treasure chests. We got... i think? 10 Athletikos cloths between the 6 of us. Worth 10 mil each.

As for MSQ

"Like a candle before the sun" is such a strange turn of phrase for Golbez, the dude whose world has not had a sun for ten thousand years.

They kind of swerved us on Lunar Subterrane by only having 1/3 of it be the Lunar Subterrane, didn't they?

Gonna miss Zero (and Golbez, for being great at hamming it up). Maybe they'll be back in 7.0 as the hosts of the trial series. It also bugged me that they almost completely ignore Gaia's existence until the very end, almost certainly so it can be spliced out for the sake of people who have never run the Eden raids. I spent all night saying "where is Gaia?" until she finally walked in.


The alliance raid is a great spectacle, on the easy side but still a lot of fun.

You just buy those sets with trophy crystals. No rank required.

Nah, that's a different set. The three modern PVP sets can be bought for 1500 Crystals per with no restrictions.

No respect for history.

(Also it doesn't really fit the aesthetic of the Extreme mounts and isn't especially visually impressive, but mostly it's the history thing)

they have body models separate from all the other races which all share a set (except lalafell, which are also separate)

so i think they fall thru the cracks in qa sometimes

I think Lalafell get their fair share, it just happens pretty rarely in general.

Also, I've just started Margrat's deliveries, and I already like her and the rest of the crew. I'm interested to see the hijinks we get up to.

Anthoclusters can be turned in for materia at Materia Vendors, usually located near the Materia Melder NPCs. They're also part of the reward you can get for the Leveling Roulette daily.

hey, before the patch, if you were alt tabbed and the queue popped, the queue pop noise would play even though the game was alt-tabbed. now that's no longer the case. is this a patch thing or did i have a mod installed that did this and i never realized.

There is a set of options in the game settings for whether or not to play certain sounds when the game isn't in focus though.

There are non-modded settings that may have changed, too. At the top of Sound Settings, double check that System Sounds are enabled under the Play sounds when window is not active. setting, and also make sure the latter is enabled too.

Also/or, if you only want DF sounds to play when tabbed out, make sure the Play system sounds while waiting for Duty Finder. setting a few options below those is enabled as well.

Will divine solvents (the mat you need to augment credendum weapons) be made available at some point for people who don't do savage raiding?

and what's the best way to upgrade weapons in the meantime? The new Extreme trial?

They'll be buyable for raid coins at some point in the future. Not sure if it's before or after the last stage of manderville weapons.

In the meantime the ex trial gives you 655.

Buying weapon augments with hunt and alliance raid currency is almost certainly after the last relic step is available.

In StB, final relic was 4.55 and Scaevan Esters were unlocked two months later in 4.57.
In ShB, final relic was 5.55 and Crypt Esters were unlocked two months later in 5.58.
In EW, final relic will be 6.55 and the Divine Solvent unlock hasn't been announced.

Because you ride in some dorky-rear end chair carried by Bahamut instead of ON the dragon.
