Floor 100 of Palace of the Dead is possibly easier than the 8000 Ocean Fishing score, though it will necessarily take longer on average even assuming fast queues and/or a group that sticks with it.

I would advise using Party Finder for PotD -- in general, but right now I suspect it'll be especially easy to find a group diving to 100.

Wrong, Red Mage is getting the ultimate support spell. Verdismantle.

I wouldn't be surprised if we get Scorch 2 or something for red mages. I'm assuming most of the new skills any class gets are primarily going to be upgraded versions of ones we already have and not much in the way of New buttons.

Electric Phantasm posted:Red Mage should get Verultima poo poo, Black Mages can't even get regular Ultima yet. I wonder if they ever will. I mean, the Garleans were able to make an "Optimized Ultima" that doesn't cause such unintended devastation, so surely the WoL can whip up a usable version.

BLM casts Ultima and put the raid on a 2 minute timer before it obliterates the entire area. Alternatively BLM casts Ultima and it's the 10 second long FF6 version with the hum.

If you've got some aetherpool and a tank job you can solo to 100 easily. It just takes hours to do.

The DDoS has been really annoying: several disconnects while helping some FC mates through P12S yesterday and last friday we cancelled UWU reclears because going 10 minutes into a fight and dying due to DCs is not fun.

Jesus, it's still going on? I've been out of town for the past couple weeks, so I haven't been home to try to play anyways, but I didn't realize it was still ongoing.

On the other hand, it is extremely funny when you hit a lagspike and the game doesn't acknowledge your GCDs anymore, since you can, for example, repeatedly hit Fell Cleave over and over and the animation will keep playing each time, allowing me to have the peak WAR experience.

DDOS on NA has not felt as bad as it did in the first few days. I've still had the occasional hiccup or dc, but i've mostly been able to do my roulettes and idle in town un-interrupted, unlike the first day or so where I was experiencing constant DCs.

Got Storm Captain rank! Proceeded to buy 3 of those boxes. One gave me a loving Bom Boko minion, which I've gotten like 20 times from retainer commissions lol. The other two I at least didn't have, but I'm pretty sure they're cheap on the MB (some owl and a Namazu - I thought I already had the latter, but apparently not).

If you change GC I'm guessing you start the grind from the beginning? One nice thing about the Squadron missions is that they do save a non-trivial amount of money with those tickets that reduce aetherite costs (which get a little steep when I'm going to Sea of Stars places for tribal quests each day).

If you want a breakdown of your odds with the GC lootboxes have I got a spreadsheet for you Gatcha Odds tldr; the Eureka mounts have about a 0.12% chance of dropping from each of the 4.0 boxes. Your odds of getting them from Eureka itself are also terrible.
