    There is actually a very assertive HoA in one of the Goblet wards. Their rule is that every house has to be painted lilac.

    I put Funchess in Flex instead of Drake. Luckily this is an easy week for me so I think I'm alright anyways.

    Fantasy Football Advice

    I need to trade Kenyan Drake for a more consistent RB. Preferably someone who will do well in week 12 when Gurley has a bye. Anyone have advice?

    Beam Staff nerf, Bounty Hunter nerf, Scrounger nerf, no more temp health on ranged kills... I understand that ranged meta was a problem but this seems like overkill.

    RIFT

    Patch 1.11 was the herald of the end for Rift, that's the patch where cross-classing became heavily discouraged and all builds became 51/15/10 point builds. (I lost my Senticar and Inquisicar builds to that patch, which were the most fun healers I've had the pleasure of playing in an MMORPG.)

    The Sad, sad, state of MMORPG in this brave new era...

    I meant in terms of expected population, not in terms of geographic scale. I also hate the current trend of instanced-everything, but I think it's a byproduct of technical limitations preventing games from packing hundreds of people into a single map while still maintaining any graphical...

    The Sad, sad, state of MMORPG in this brave new era...

    MMORPGs need to stop being so "massive." In 1999, there were three games on the market. In 2018, there are three thousand. Producers need to be more realistic about the market share they can potentially obtain and need to work on crafting games that cater to a smaller, more loyal group of...

    RIFT

    Not entirely Scott's fault. The higher-ups at Trion decided that it was a good idea to make Defiance, End of Nations, and acquire publishing rights from Crytek for Warface all on the back of Rift and its success. Defiance had an extremely underwhelming life and could probably be considered an...

    This is very important, the FFXIV community has a bad habit of scapgoatism and they will try to blame anything but their own inability to play if they're not making progress. Try to find people who aren't like that.

    WHM is not even that bad of a class, you should give the context that you're talking about speedrun/world first groups or statics that think they're good because they use a meta comp but will be progging O10S for an entire month. All the current content can be cleared with any mix of classes...

    Like I said, combat pre max-level is absolute garbage, you have to get to 70 before the combat becomes amazing. Don't blame you for canceling but it's so much better at the end.

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    I read a review which said that putting your kingdom on auto results in missing out on some story stuff. Full review: Pathfinder: Kingmaker Review - It's My Destiny to be the King of Pain - Niche Gamer

    Feats should be every odd level. Or do you mean prerequisites? You can try the online reference document but I don't know how accurate it is to the game. d20PFSRD

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Welcome to Pathfinder! Spell damage has never been good. Fireball/Fire Snake are good for quickly mopping up large groups of weak enemies but the role of casters is pretty much to buff the party pre-encounter and then cast CC/summons during combat. I don't know how Kingmaker works but casting...

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker

    Summoner has always been the best class in Pathfinder, it is insanely busted and the only other class that comes close to its power is Druid, but even then Summoner is on another tier. Synthesist is actually the most gimped version of Summoner there is because it merges the Summoner with their...

    Also for grand company, what you want to do is roll greed on all dungeon gear then submit it to your grand company delivery dude for seals. You'll be able to make a lot of money and rank quickly that way, and for some reason people let dungeon gear drop to the floor so you can always get a lot...

    For anyone interested in raiding (Aether data center): I run weekly Savage raids with a group of players, but we're first-come-first-serve not a static so it's great if you have a flexible schedule. This week we are clearing O9S tonight and progging O10S and will hopefully clear O10S on...

    The fastest way to level is to spam the Deep Dungeons which are basically roguelike dungeons. The cool thing is that you get all your skills (you get your level 60 skills from 1-60 and your 70 skills from 60-70) but it's still very grindy.

    I'm super thankful that tanks can grab Ultimatum now. It means we can Provoke-Shirk at the start of every fight without having to worry about an incoming tank swap.

    I absolutely agree with everything you're saying, but I am doubtful that the 18th Floor will implement measures like these. Also, quick ReShade Appreciation Screenshot:

    I'm raiding savage content as DRK right now. I love the class and it is honestly amazing for prog. The Blackest Night is one of the best abilities in the game and I have saved so many runs with it (it's a shield for 20% of your Max HP on yourself or 10% of your Max HP on a party member with a...

    None of the classes are challenging from a base level, the difficulty comes from optimizing your play for every fight. In that sense, MNK and NIN probably have more challenge.

    A lot of people aren't happy with MCH right now because most of its damage revolves around a single CD, but it's still a very viable class.

    This is only true for groups that don't coordinate burst windows. You forgot about Trick Attack.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Everything is perfectly viable at endgame. If you want to get into the top of top groups your best bets will be DRG, NIN, BRD, and SMN. (Raids like taking RDM for progression but have them switch to SMN for clears/farms.) But these groups are already racing so just play whatever DPS you like the...

    The Alphascape bosses are cool, but aside from that there is basically nothing in this patch for non-raiders. Well... do you like single player games? Because at this point, FFXIV is a single player game with a chat lobby. While it has endgame raids that are very good (and a new tier of raids...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I don't think the new raid tier is going to be anything too different from Delta/Sigmascape, devs seem to be pretty comfortable with how they are and I think they're in a good place, anyways. New extreme primal and new dungeons are pretty meaningless as they will be cleared in a day, maybe...
