What's the best way to use limbal rings? I'm expecting some people to make them clash horrendously just to be obnoxious or whatever but I'm trying to use them to accentuate eye color. Any thoughts?

Here's a thought: no one cares.

The RoI on FATES seems really bad. They take forever and only give 8-16k xp for a gold as far as I can tell.

Also, Deliverance owns and Wrath doesn't give Parry even though the tooltip on the buff says it should.

EDIT: Actually it looks like Abandon isn't giving a crit bonus either, unless that sort of thing wouldn't show up on the stat screen for some reason.

Considering that's a lot more than what they gave I'm not sure why this seems bad to you?

Are you sure about that? I remember FATEs contributing way more, but I guess that was with Armory Buff.

Either way it's a waste of time. You can skip story cutscenes and get ~50k every 5-10 minutes, or you can do a Templeleve and get ~60k slightly slower.

if you are skipping the majority of the content to make a number go from 50-60 the most efficient method is to uninstall ff14 and just open the windows calculator

If the "majority of the content" is a JRPG storyline then lol no thank you.

Then why in the gently caress do you even play this game?

Because I like killing monsters and raiding with my friends? I don't need a bunch of badly voice acted catpeople telling me about crystals and "warriors of light" to get enjoyment out of this game, sorry if that bothers you.

You don't have friends don't tell stories.

You know you don't get the armory bonus unless you have a character above the one you're leveling right? Why would I be getting the armory bonus?

You were the one who brought up the armory buff you idiot.

Yeah, to explain why I remembered the % per level a FATE gave being higher when I was leveling other classes. Why are you so upset? Did you design the FATES for Western Coerthas?

Dusk Vigil has Phendrana Drifts music and the last boss is neat. It also gave about 250000xp with rested bonus, not including the quest turn in.

In addition to crit, or instead of?

Not sure. The buff for defiance says that Wrath gives crit, but the tooltip for the Wrath buff itself says it only gives parry.

Fell Cleave is sick. I'm still bummed that two of the new Warrior spells got wasted on slightly different versions of Inner Beast and Steel Cyclone, but 3k crits are doing a lot to help me get over it.

If I'm thinking of the right thing, to get to the area southeast of the Moghome aetheryte you need to go down into the area where the moogleking or whatever is then across from where you enter that area there's a ramp going up. There's several quest destinations there.

Nah, it's around the rookery.

I just did all of 2.1-2.55 on PLD, beginning with the first post-2.0 quest when the servers came back up yesterday.

I stopped paying attention to the story around level 20, but read a summary to catch all the way back up.

HOLY poo poo.

Does anyone know off hand what page in the last thread did the the 2.55 ending discussion start? now that I've seen it I want to read what you all wrote.

Yo, can you hit me up with the summary? After I got flamed for not watching cutscenes I started watching them just before doing The Aery and I'm kind of getting invested.

The last boss fight owned, the post credits cutscene owned, Fel Cleave owns, this game owns.

Question about the end of the credits did the Warrior of Darkness wear AF gear that matched your class too? Or is he in Warrior gear for everyone?

Is there any actual money to be made from AFK gathering? I thought all the valuable poo poo required actual effort to get.

If you're a fresh 50 on your first class, just keep doing the MSQ. It'll reward you with gear as you go along.

Was doing the vault yesterday and the tank told me "I'm gonna go without tanking stance to make this go faster" That was a hell of a chore to heal through, barely even got to throw out my own SCH dps with all the damage he was taking.

I wonder what ends up being a higher average DPS for the party, Tank staying in stance with healer DPSing, or Tank in DPS stance with healer only really healing.
