add captchas to pvp, you have to enter one every time you fail to kill a player in a 60 second period. this also trains bad players to pvp correctly.

I, frankly, want this smug Jagen to be my avatar on all forms of social media immediately.
It was a nice and unexpected touch when (Early SB Spoilers) I did the quest where Zenos attacks Rhalgr's Reach on my White Mage, and in the scene afterwards where Krile's trying to heal Y'shtola, she looked up and said "Don't just stand there gawping! You're a healer, aren't you?". It's cool to see the game taking that into account, when it did feel a bit silly when my dumb rear end just sat there and watched Nanamo/Haurchefant die like I don't have Esuna/Benediction right there.

3.x had some pretty cool patch content if you ask me. Make sure to do the Warring Triad.

I can't believe I almost forgot about the reset. Omega queues have been so bad this week I only got a drop from O2. The only one that no longer drops anything I need.

Got a doma castle earlier that started out oddly. Realized the tank was using a 260 shire weapon despite the rest of their gear being the HQ stuff you get through the story.

I want to level a healer and I'm having a really hard time deciding between WHM and AST.

WHM: Probably better actual healing tools, and I like casting more "classic" FF spells like Cure. Holy owns. Aero III. I like canes more than astrolabes.

AST: Shooting things with star magic is cooler than hitting them with rocks. Gravity is cool. Stellar Detonation looks incredible.

level both

malefic 3 is 30 potency less than stone IV
WHM has two DoTs, one of them is AoE

holy has:
player based casting, much easier to spam
wider AoE
a Four second stun

it's weird looking at the meter and seeing the AST do both less damage and less healing than the WHM, but the parser doesnt attribute bonuses the AST gives to them so that's just how it is

WHM gets Assize, the best skill.

there's a weird bug in the game where they forgot to give AST a second DoT, i'm sure it will be addressed in the next odd numbered patch

I once did two-thirds of a kugane castle run using a sharpened sphere of the first heir because i forgot to unequip it after doing a lv 50/60 queue run and i glamoured my usual 310 weapon into the same thing.

Healing got way easier after i fixed that...

Holy poo poo.

Also you want to talk about misery and suffering, I think the current mentality of all new players is that immediately after they have beaten Prae, they must immediately go to the wandering bard and unlock Ultima EX to complete and progress through the story. Neko asked a healer to join DF Ultima EX and this is what I walked into



Darklight, AF+, Cobalt, and AF1 abounded.

The final boss in the Ivalice raid series will be the mysterious void where Vaan's abs should have been.

Well, the chances of Altima being the final boss of the Ivalice raids is fairly high and "yet another high-ranking Void demonlady" would be the explanation.

Yeah level both. This is exactly what I'm doing and It Is The Right Way.

Pre/at 50 AST gets to press buttons to make people better, but WHM gets Holy (and you don't get Gravity). And Holy makes a huge loving difference.

But juggling cards is super satisfying.

I wouldn't be super shocked if Forgall, Scathach and Ferdiad were standing for Lucavi who would've had tribute names to other FF bosses.

May be a good idea to separate FF12 from FFT for this raid.

One of these has bunnygirls, so we know which one the fans wants.

The other is grimdark medieval politics & war and yoship is a big fan of GoT so...

That said I still like FFT's setting and I would mark out for a Lionel Castle gate-style fight.
