If one of the tanks accidentally moves any of the three out of position, the world ends and the raid is lost.

Wooooo just got to level 70. I've been enjoying Stormblood almost as much as Heavensward, honestly. More in some ways: the music and dungeons are really great.

More importantly, can anyone put me in touch with someone able to craft level 70 Warrior gear for a reasonable fee? I don't know what that number would be, but I have about 2.8million in the piggybank. I'm Belloc Baneblade on Excalibur, or I have PMs here if that's easier.

I'd be happy to toss in some extra gil for Paladin and DRK weapons too since I'm planning on getting the other two tanks to 70 in the near term.

The first time you encounter vocals in fight music will be Titan around level 35 (probably higher since there are massive newbie xp bonuses nowadays). I think you'll enjoy it! The primal songs are one of the reasons I checked this game out in the first place.

In short, ffxiv is full of bangers, please do not mute the music.

Also, try not to be a cutscene skipper. In contrast to WoW, your actual involvement in the story is centered on you, not some jerk with a model scaled up to twice your height swooping in at the last moment to read the benefit of your hard work.

And yes, Soken (the music director for FFXIV) heads a band that plays the rockingest tracks from the game live and has released several albums of exactly that. Often with guest vocals from the English localization lead because Koji Fox leads a charmed life as the king of nerds.

I know of one, to my knowledge. Doing one of the Halloween events gave access to a bat face paint. Aside from that, I can't remember hearing of anything else.
