Does the AST card that lowers cooldowns make them tick faster for 15 seconds regardless of if it was already on cooldown, or does the ability have to be used while under the effects of the card?

So I realized I (probably?) never entered my actual Heavensward code and had just been using the preorder one from GMG. Well I typed it in on the mog station and it says the code has already been redeemed and is thus invalid. I currently have no confirmation circle next to Heavensward on my account page, does that mean I'm just completely hosed in a few hours if I don't spend another $40?

Are you sure? The email lists two codes, one of which is listed as a preorder and the other as a "game activation code". Either way knowing I'm fine until the 27th means I'll just have some chill for a while, thanks.

Are there any commonly used strats for the last boss of Library? I've only done it once and it was with a mumble premade so it was easy to bark orders over voice, and if there's something duty finder groups have been doing I'd rather just learn that for the future.

I keep finding myself wishing this game had the option to automatically switch to a cold-weather glamour set whenever I'm in Coerthas or whatever.

I wish titles were tied to armor sets so I could use <Annihilator> on Warrior and <the Mythril Heart> on Black Mage without manually switching each time

so inquiring minds want to know; what IS the 1300 dps black mage rotation? i got a lot of great openers from the ffgoons thread the other day but I didn't see much talk about actual rotations beyond

Tenzarin posted:

Buffs>(2x fire4>fire1) repeat intill oom or 10s on enochain > bliz 3 > bliz 4 > repeat

Enochain about to wear off and its not off cd> use all your mana in fire 2.0 dps mode > bliz 2.0 dps mode > repeat or go back to enochain rotation

e: unless you just mean proper cooldown usage/knowing when to switch to F4 > F1 instead of 2x F4, etc

The best thing about lalafells is how everybody takes them completely seriously and nobody in the game ever treats them as children or adorable or in any way less worthy of serious consideration than, say, a roegadyn.

The worst thing about lalafells is that I can't figure out a way to make the above rule compatible with a flat prohibition on talking about them in any kind of sexual context.

The game literally has old men lalafells talking about loving catgirls at the beach

I like in the 52 AST quest when the lady's dad's death is revealed and the guy trainer is like "truly the dagger can wound us, but perhaps the gravity of such a moment is even stronger. If only we could harness this gravity to hurt our foes..." and then you learn Gravity

You can level together, I did it with someone until 44 (nothing stopped us, he just unsubbed), but it's a pain to reinvite people for all the random solo cutscenes and mini-instances and such. Not a big enough hurdle to stop you from doing it if you want.
