So, just finished the level 60 MSQ. You know how I was joking about how the people that join you in dungeons are Echoes of you from alternate dimensions? Yeah, after seeing the Ascian Fusion Dance and Lahabrea's comments about how the power of the Echo is to break down the barriers of reality I'm not entirely certain just how much of a joke it really is.

bonewitch posted:It hasn't been updated since 2014 and nothing at that level should require a guide to beat. Dungeon bosses are generally intuitive or have a singular mechanic that people will explain to you if you're new. Indeed. I've got three rules that basically cover 90% of any boss encounter, regardless of level: * Don't stand in front of the boss. (Or, in the case of the tank, DO.) * Kill all of the adds. * Don't stand in the stupid.

Evil Fluffy posted:"In which game is the character doing specials and not attacking." To be fair, going MNK and punching people was disproportionately great, relative to weapons. Chakra was also great, and you needed to go that way to get Geomancer for Ninja anyways. Evil Fluffy posted:I can buy that the magical light spear is beyond normal wounds but the whole "valiant hero blocks deadly attack with shield until shield breaks and kills them because they didn't shift their weight to deflect the attack in to the ground next to them" is a really loving stupid trope. He's not blocking some WoL-seeking missile. Shifting slighting and tilting his shield would end up with the spear either striking empty ground next to him or maybe stabbing him off to the side in a way that's less likely to be fatal. Also, it kind of exploded him in the crotchular region. Not sure anyone would want to continue living after that.

Captain Oblivious posted:Literally the only time a truly pet centric class has ever been fun in an MMO is Masterminds in City of Heroes, and FF14 is not that style of game. So I'm okay with pets being most forgettable ability turrets that mostly serve to make the job lore distinct. RIP COX, taken too soon before its time. Though if they did put in Beastmaster, I would like them to go that route, with the Beast being the point from which all the BST's ability's damage comes from, and any actual effects coming from the BST being support or cooldown effects.

I'm surprised more people aren't annoyed about Fractal Continuum's last boss. That's a very hard-hitting tankbuster on a very short timer, I have yet to run a group that oneshots it. Frankly, it's just not very fun, and I would much rather run around Neverreap and swing my axe around for ludicrous crits on adds.Rei_ posted:Jaiseillex Dentonnier Adamsoix Jensennier

Vermain posted:The final Fractal boss does about 3.2k on a Paladin sans cooldowns. It's not a concern unless your healer is falling asleep at the wheel. Accounting for the health difference, the numbers do line up, so I guess I just need to get rid of the 58 white belt and ring. Still a bit odd to see ~4.5K on a mitigated hit, though.

I can't speak to what the healers were doing in our BisEX clear last night, but two Overpowers were sufficient for me to grab and hold my snake until the point where I had to switch/not-switch. If you're on Excalibur, get a hold of Cid's Angels.

So, Yoshi-P said a thing at Japan Expo, saying that FFXIV now has almost 5 million players. (His exact words, although we should probably take this to mean "accounts", as opposed to actual people.) Given that Blizzard's own Q1 earnings call indicated that WoW was at 7.1 million subscribers, I'm feeling pretty good about FFXIV's spot relative to #1.

A SCH on follow is better than most healers you'll get at that level who probably aren't going to dps anyway. What I'm saying is that guy's an rear end in a top hat that expects everyone to wait on him hand and foot, and I resent him displacing his duties as healer onto me. If I wanted to heal, I'd have queued a healer.

Fister Roboto posted:Unukalhai is the name of the brightest star in the constellation Serpentarius. What does that have to do with Urianger meeting with Elidibus? Given the name, and the fact that dragons are basically magical bullshit from space and don't play by any of the rules that apply to everything else on Hydaelyn, I figured that it was a subtle hint to the fact that Unukalhai was probably one of Midgardsormr's progeny.

Niton posted:since you're probably not joking: There's another character named Elidibus: an optional superboss living in Ivalice's Midnight's Deep. He was notable for being the only character in the entirety of Final Fantasy Tactics to have the Zodiac symbol of Serpentarius. Is that what they re-translated Deep Dungeon to be? Anyways, I had started working on the name from an astrological perspective, with Serpentarius being "The Great Serpent", a name also attributed with Midgardsormr, and indeed, the name of one of that boss's attacks. (Well, it was translated as "Midgar Swarm", but after FF7, we all know that it's Midgardsormr.) I had completely forget about the FFT character, although the slightly different spelling of the name might have been what threw me. I still know that guy as "Eldibs". I've never played any of the remakes, only the PSX version. SwissArmyDruid fucked around with this message at 08:54 on Jul 9, 2015 |
