Based on stuff they revealed during fanfests it'll be the Arkasodara, Loporrits and probably Omicrons. I assume it'll be gathering, crafting and combat in that order, that's just my opinion though.

Cleared both the EXs today. They were pretty fun. Even managed to nab the weapon coffer. (spoilered because the weapon aesthetics will make it very obvious who the trial is)

Chillgamesh posted:You can make the wait .5s instead. That said, yeah, I don't super see the point of a rez macro since if you're swiftcasting it, it's instant, and if you're hardcasting it with multiple downed players the other healer can now check to see who the target of your hardcast is on the party list. You can't, wait only takes integers. You really shouldn't macro combat abilities outside of a couple of exceptions anyway.

I actually really like Ala Mhigo's landscapes and wouldn't mind more of them, but I also think that two expacs back to back about liberation would be a bit long in the tooth, even if it means kicking in more coloniser face.

Argas posted:Probably the compromise they went with rather than develop another set of Asian aesthetics that are distinct enough to stand out from the Hingashi stuff, while already having established Doma as having ninjas and poo poo as far back as 2.xx. Yeah, I get why they went with it, just rubs me the wrong way a little bit considering real-life history. Only enough to make me grumble that they should have used the Chinese readings for all the Doman characters' names. Fei Yuan sounds a lot cooler than Hien!

EW PLD is amazing now that it's got some very strong self-sustain. Also big swords. The Holy Sheltron sfx might be one of the coolest in the game. You're just a slab of steel that can pretty much live forever.

ImpAtom posted:EW Paladin is probably the best version yet for "you don't really NEED a healer in dungeons that often." I've had more than one situation where a Sage ate poo poo and then I just proceeded to tank-slash-heal the rest of the party through the entire fight, which was often possible but EW makes it feel extremely good since you have sustain beyond Clemency. My one annoyance is that they removed Req boosting Clemency so you can't do like 5 Benes in a row but I'll take it as a sacrifice that needed to be made to get the rest of the toolkit.

A big band version plays during the 87 solo duty against Venat, and it's worked into the final trial phase 2 music. Other than that you get an orchestrion of it by itself at the very end.

Sinteres posted:Has anyone done the capstone for the role quests/was it cool? I'm not going to read any spoilers about it, just curious if there's anything really interesting about it. Role quests won't have a capstone until 6.1 at earliest, although studium quests do have a capstone in already. I've done tank, melee DPS and healer so far and just started ranged phys, so far I'd rank them healer > melee > tank.

Mordiceius posted:Yeah, Kholusia. In my quest to get all the TT cards, that one was one of the most boring. Guess there is no better time to be fate grinding. I did all of the zone 6 fates as a lvl 81 MCH and got to 85. If you're in a group you can easily get gold credit no matter what, even if you miss stuff 50% of the time due to level difference.

I dunno, I think there's a few thematic reasons why Thavnair works so well. Full expac spoilers. We can start with Vrtra, who's basically a walking mirror to Heavensward in his relationship to his people. He's also a symbol of how even alien visitors can thrive in a foreign star and how Middy's hopes were not for naught. The ingenuity of the alchemists are a more active form of knowledge that help you take the fight to Garlemald and the towers in a way that Sharlayan's more passive knowledge and the Ancients's more lofty and high-minded works could not. Maybe Sharlayan could have had a tempering shield technique in their back pocket but it would probably have made them too much of an rear end in a top hat keeping it from others so the writers gave that invention to another set of characters. It also gives us a view of common people who have a pre-existing philosophy based on Buddhism and Hinduism that argues against universal despair in the face of the inevitability of death. Sure, you could have tried to set it in Ala Mhigo instead, but they don't have a strong religious background that would have justified Matsya's sermon at the temple to resonate so well with the people. Also, dragging Ala Mhigo through a mass tragedy again would just kinda suck. So yeah, that's why I think Thavnair's actually pretty critical to EW working. It may seem separated from all the other bits but it's got a strong place as a thematic mirror to the rest of the expac.

Magil Zeal posted:It also gives Estinien some good lines and more of a reason to be along for the ride this time, given his own history with dragonkind. He gets to show, now that the circumstances are different, he can have a different attitude towards dragonkind despite his history. He gets to show he's grown, and he doesn't feel like the Scions' awkward hanger-on which he easily could have if he didn't have any non-comedic moments to contribute early on. Good shout, I didn't even think of that. Thavnair is just Ishgard 2!!!!

Captain Oblivious posted:I have a pretty good idea what’s going to go down in the relic quest this go around. Given that the past two relics have been based off of the Eureka model of content, and how popular both Eureka and Bozja have been, we can reasonably guess that we are getting more of that and that relic will be attached once more. Makes sense. It's also coastal so I think it'll be where Island Sanctuary is too. That was my prediction when I first noticed that they kept mentioning it in EW.

My relic priority is finishing off the EW ones I never got around to finishing anyway (assuming people are running CLL, DR and Dalriada again).
