Blattdorf posted:Summoner feels disappointing to me after how much I liked the class in 3.0. It all boils down to Ruin spam in between other spells that lead to more Ruin spam. Radiant shield and contagion essentially do the same thing other than one is physical and the other is magical. Radiant shield is just indirect about it by needing the mob to hit a tank with radiant shield first before they get inflicted with a debuff that reduces their physical resistance, while Garuda can just place that debuff directly that'll reduce their magical resistance. So basically, summoners pick their pets based off of party makeup now, so if it's a mostly magical party, you bring Garuda who essentially has foe's requiem now, and ifrit for physical. Anyways, I found myself with enough surplus mp between DTs that spamming ruin 3 outside of DT still seems viable to me.

macfam posted:I don't know about the other jobs but sumoner's job quests don't seem sustainable. All the other summoners have been dead for thousands of years, there's no one left to teach you. They can't keep pulling recovered allagan texts out of their rear end every expansion. I could be wrong, maybe you become the indisputable master of every job in sb, it still leaves the question of 'what do you do from here?'. We start delving into magiteck books clearly, or whatever tome is relevant for the next location of the next expansion since being able to summon Bahamut is a pretty high peak at the moment. Or we start inventing more new techniques since we literally made up Deathflare on the spot to blow up an Ascian.

dogsicle posted:Given what I've heard about the DRG/MSQ questline fuckery between ARR and HW, I can see there being legitimate worry about constantly bringing him back in. It's a shame there aren't more good side characters to weave into the MSQ though. They already brought in Y'mhitra once. I can see them giving her a bigger role whenever Summoner gets their day in the sun, presumably whenever primals become a big deal again.

Safeword posted:So when does this hugely tedious stretch of story happen? I'm assuming when I best Ultima Weapon, something I would have loved to have gone in without hearing about it first. It has a lot of subtle build-up that's not obvious on first glance, so despite things seeming like padding, there'll be a point things will ramp up and then there will be a large avalanche of dramatic developments. If you can, I recommend doing Hildebrand, Crystal Tower, and if you can find friends, Coil while you're running around doing the MSQ too cause those have lots of cool content and plot beats that eventually come back around Stormblood, and breaks up the slower moments during 2.x

Ytlaya posted:Should I be at all concerned that if I don't finish the MSQ soon enough it'll be hard to find people to do all the Stormblood raid content with, or do I have a while? At my current rate it'll probably be at least a couple weeks until I finish that. Doing the Binding Coils stuff actually makes me kind of curious about these raids, even though I've never really raided in an MMO before; it's kinda fun learning the mechanics and doing them correctly, and the plot stuff was also cool. I'm currently periodically checking Party Finder for the Heavensward raids (they actually seem to be less common on there than Binding Coils for some reason). Nah you’re fine. Coil is the only raid that’s not in roulette, so you’re bound to get the HW and SB raids sooner or later. Most parties doing them in Party Finder are doing it for WTs at this point so they can unsync it quickly

Ifrit got a slight nerf last patch with how Radiant Shield works anyways so it's somewhat more debatable which one is better now, since before ifrit was considered the better summon for most of Stormblood's life(before Stormblood people would say go with Garuda but they changed Garuda's skills with the release of Stormblood). On paper anyways, the idea is Garuda is will buff caster dmg, while Ifrit indirectly buffs melee dmg. They removed Radiant shield's reflect dmg from Ifrit last patch though, so it lost a marginal bit of dps, so I don't think there's any full consensus yet which one is better after the patch.

FFTA is in an imaginary version of Ivalice, but it's an imaginary version based off of real Ivalice though, hence how you have Montblanc showing up in FFTA, FF12, and A2. Basically there's some ambiguity to how much the events of FFTA actually happened

Then again, I just joked about SaGa and FF2 is practically proto-SaGa so maybe the Emperor of Light is fitting. Allarion fucked around with this message at 00:32 on Jun 1, 2019 |

Nessus posted:So will the next one be White? My guess would have been Paladin for 6.0 anyways as the next expansion cover Job, since it'd parallel Cecil going from Dark Knight to Paladin, and also we'd finally get to go to the moon, so White being the color would make sense. Also I just heavily doubt they'd have the WoL go caster in one of the trailers as cool as that would be, and there's not many picks left that'd quite matches with WoL in trailers. To be fair, Archer isn't the obvious choice as the first class the WoL starts out as either, so maybe they'll throw a curveball with 6.0 and we suddenly get magic or dexterity WoL.

ankle posted:If I'm leveling up purely through dungeons, whats the best way of keeping my character at least semi-geared to their current level? I've got an AST at 45 with the starting equipment so I keep getting lovely dungeons. Should I just buy poo poo from the market board? The highest level dungeon will usually drop loot for your level, but otherwise, you can just buy vendor gear.

Veotax posted:Yeah, all the expansions have been kind of just set-up in the x.5 patch. In 3.4 they were still setting up Shadow Bringers with the Warriors of Darkness and then in 3.5 all the poo poo with Ilberd goes down and we move into Storm Blood. If your assumption is right, then Gaius and his Ascian hunting is just a tease, and his big story arc will be the next expansion. Which may or may not lead into Garlemald.

Man, thinking about the First, and pondering the Eden raid and how it may be connected to FF8/Ultimecia, it'd be neat to see if we get expansion on her backstory if Eden does turn out to be ff8 related, especially if it links up with First stuff.

Galaga Galaxian posted:So afte rnearly two years away, I resubbed recently to prep for Shadowbringers coming out, but I find myself completely unmotivated to do anything once I finished the 4.56 MSQ stuff. I haven't touched the side stuff, unlocked all the rest of the 4.X dungeons and trails, the 24 man raids... Hell, I haven't even started the 4.X Hildibrand stuff. Do Coil and Crystal Tower anyways cause they still hold up and are good. Alexander is also cool in a different way, and Omegascape is also really cool and surprisingly has a real good end for what seemed like nostalgia trip of classic FF bosses.

CuddlyZombie posted:Ivalice and Crystal tower are good ways to do throwbacks. I hope eden is more of that and less of Omega I’m speculating that the First is also a possible timeline for where Ultimecia originated from, cause that’d be a super neat way to callback while expanding on stuff that was only hinted back in FFVIII. Y’Shtola’s even a witch here!

FuzzySlippers posted:I've been unable to google up any job story summaries, does any know of any? It'd be nice to find a summary better than reading through the job quest descriptions in the log for any jobs I boosted (dragoon, ninja) or just don't remember (summoner). I don't fully recall ARR summoner other than hanging with Y'shtola's sister and learning the summons, but HW summoner is an Ascian messing with us, and us murdering the the hell outta them with Deathflare, and then SB is a supercomputer Summoner echo/memory trying to turn us into a Primal so it can use us as a Summon, and then we summon Bahamut on them. Summoner story is rad.

queeb posted:smn losing the tank pet sucks, since you gonna get beat on a ton when leveling. probably not as annoying as blm since smn has a ton of instants too but still. The Titan egi still exists. It just won't pull emnity anymore. Instead it'll make a barrier which will help a little. Though really, after a while it's faster to just dps everything down rather than letting titan distract things. Summons being instant means you could take advantage of both now too by just putting shields up and switching to dps pet. Allarion fucked around with this message at 00:32 on Jun 26, 2019 |

Orcs and Ostriches posted:A lot of the raid or trial lines are directly related to the MSQ, but entirely optional. Coil, which like snail said is a 1.0 resolution, but then you also have the Warring Triad and Omega directly branching off of MSQ relevant plots. They're also the things that make 2.x feel nicer to go through, cause if you're queuing for Coil and Crystal Tower (also all those lvl 50 side-dungeons), you're gonna notice the long stretches of 2.x less. Also cause doing Coil before HW just feels good since Alisaie showing up to bail you out feels a lot more like her returning the favor for Coil rather than just feeling outta nowhere.
