I should've broken those up so people don't think they're related to each other instead of both just being awesome things. No idea when I'm going to actually find the time to run PotD and get down to floor 200 though.

They'll change the pose someday I guess so as long as it's not ridiculous, it's fine.

Spread flat, it resembles nothing so much as a moogleskin rug, which I suppose is sufficient revenge for the Churning Mists.

Leal posted:Realtalk: Is elemental damage even a thing anymore? Doesn't everything now just do darkness damage or something like that so you can't mitigate it outside of cooldown abilities? There's a difference between darkness and non-elemental damage. All damage in this game has both a 'type' (physical, magical, darkness) and an element (including non-elemental). Most elemental damage is magic, but there are exceptions (BRD's Windbite.) In general the element doesn't matter because no job has element-specific mitigation, but I'm pretty sure enemy attacks have the 'right' element. The only major case I can think of is that most of Sophia's attacks do lightning-elemental damage, which is why her tankbuster gives a lightning vuln debuff.

The Sphinx boss from Lost City HM (I think) does wind and earth resistance down to get you with Aero and Quake; Strix also does a lightning down with the imp circle to hit you with Thunder.

It's another thing they can tweak in order to make encounters more interesting. See the final fight in Gubal Hard: while it is logical to think that when you're an imp you're weak to lightning but the lightning resist debuff ensures it. The giant sphinx in lost city hard is another note, considering he casts stone and aero and debuffs resistances to those with his ancient libra.

Chucat posted:What the hell is Darkness type? Do I want to know? It's not physical/magical so it can only be mitigated by the non-specific percentile buffs/debuffs. EG: Rampart, Disable, Vengeance etc. work on darkness type attacks, but virus, dragon kick, bulwark etc. don't work on them. Pretty sure there's also a 'true' (or typeless) style of damage that exists just to make sure people wipe when they mess up mechanics.

consider housing in this game to be a second character to dress up, except you have infinite possibilities of doing that dress up

Back in LOTRO i was just visiting the housing lanes one day and found the owner of one of them just sitting in a sofa smoking pipeweed. He invited me to come in and smoke pipeweed with him too. We chatted for a while. It was the most surreal experience I've had in an MMO. It was probably a one in a million chance of picking a house that someone was actively in at the time just chilling. People usually just build them to look pretty and never once used them for anything other than them being pretty.

Best part of getting a house was that the FC next to us immediately started complaining about how they wanted that house, to the point of parking fat chocobos in front of it to prevent us from getting inside. Second best was buying all sorts of poo poo to shove in the house so we can shoot the poo poo in a nice place while waiting for queues.

To date I'm probably still one of the only people to have done that MMO pretty princess catgirls need pretty princess castles to be pretty in, which is most of what makes them appealing.

It makes things feel lived in Personally I would've preferred a system that let FCs dress up their own neighborhood, rather than just one house amongst dozens. The zone would also be far smaller so it wouldn't be taxing on systems to not render the interior as a separate zone.
