You are gonna know the absolute nanosecond what zone five is the moment there’s even a small whiff of a hint for it. And you’ll know because your face will go

I absolutely loved the part where all your friends come into your room with a bunch of food and your WoL and all their friends are talking and eating. I loved the little bit with Graha and Alisae with their burgers

My favourite line in the expansion comes in the cutscene after the final dungeon/before the final trial.

Zenos rocks up, takes one look at the Endsinger, and goes "But why does it still live? Surely it is no match for you."

That one line, to me, says more about that idiot's opinion of you than almost anything else in the entire game.

So I understand why they are releasing the Island Sanctuary. After all the poo poo he's been through, my WOL really wants a place to just gently caress off and not be disturbed for once.

It's funny you say that, because in this case everyone fucks up the unobvious mechanics the first time they see them except Y'shtola. She shouts she can see the aether and adjusts.

I just did the quest that gives you a Chocobo battle buddy pet, wasn't expecting that!

Are these basically mercenaries from Everquest? Is there any point in not using them for farting around in PvE where they're usable?

If I'm a DPS class (Dragoon) is any of the single player content balanced around him needing to be a healer/tank, or can I just make him a damaging dude to speed things up?

Devor posted:

So it's not a class-either-or thing with Chocobos, you can splash some healing, some damage?

While I haven't done any extreme shield healing yet, I think that's the idea yeah. In boss fights you wanna primarily rely on your various gall heals, like Kerachole, with zoe + E.Diagnosis when it's up or when you need to provide room for the regen effects to work. I've seen some people say Haima + E.Diagnosis shields stack, but I'm not sure about that. It may just be they keep the Haima buff so that'll kick in for you when the first E.Diagnosis shield breaks.

I think E.Diagnosis is better for single hit tankbusters while Haima works better if it's going to be a multi-hit. Same with E.Prognosis and panhaima for raid-wides.

Have you done all the shared fate farming? I'm getting a shitload of levels out of these and I haven't even finished one zone to 60 yet.

Are the gem shops complete on their inventory? Or do they add more later? I know ShB had way more to buy than you'd earn capping all the zones

Xerophyte posted:

Yes, the various shields stack. We can stack Haima and Panhaima too, doing so saved my bacon once in T2Ex when we went in to a repeated stack aoe with 4 people alive and I managed to come out the other end alive with LB3 available.

Except Alexander. The guy couldn't take 5 minutes of his infinite time loop to hop over and help?

Zenos arrives. You start to summon your trial-mates. The screen fades in, you're hurtling through space. You're hype as gently caress because you know this is it, this is The End.

Then the music kicks in, and the first thing you hear is loving BEEF SOFT TACOS.

Do any of the role quests actually lean into what role they're supposed to be about? I found that the tank one didn't really feel like it had anything to do with the tank role at all and felt more like a healer role quest until the final solo duty (which, admittedly, was pretty fun I thought).

The Tank role quest series was aggressively boring, but I didn't have high hopes since it was working with Kan-E-Sanna and the Padjal. The most interesting that's ever happened with those dorks is wondering if A-Ruhn-Senna has weird eyes under his stupid bangs.

Seriously does Kan-E-Senna ever do anything but pray to trees, get real tired of praying to trees, then get the soul power to pray to trees even harder?

Yeah the Cryptlurker ones work well with my glam.

I also like the ones from Dohn Mheg, and there's a crafted set with some purple effects that look good. Can't remember the name.

I just like the Gundam wings.

Also, give us a Sage mount that'll let us fly using the Nouliths. Perma-holos.

Got ROG to 30 and unlocked NIN and did Satasha as an ARC so I could use Roulettes with it. I certainly did not expect that I ran into probably the most weirdest tank I've encountered.

Basically, the tank didn't respond in chat, moved in an incredibly janky manner, only use the single target attacks and even then, if it wasn't actually standing around while the rest of the party did the actual fighting. The only explanation was that it was a bot or something which is a rare thing to see considering it had an actual (but silly) name instead of a string of random letters and the fact that it showed up on a Duty at all. Anyway, the rest of the party (including me) voted the tank out and got another one that was an actual player and knew how to Tank. We've pretty much breezed past through Satasha with ease thanks to him.
