I cannot for the life of me kill Arkem Thunder before the main body dies. I also can't even find the dark part.

Bros, the magnitude of my sphere slacking is starting to sink in. Made another Buffer today (I have 3 total now), a Malice yesterday, so I have maybe three Malices left, and I've got plenty of Legwands. Do you guys just work on the spheres + material drops for the final combine (e.g., Seal...

Correct. I mean I don't bother with doing any math, but if I'm at 117 and 3 crystals gets me to 120 and two gets me to 119, I certainly start out with just the two.

I never, ever have issues with burst and sphere frogs. I don't even farm bb fodder anymore, although I use what I have. Never seem to have enough pots, totems, mimics or crystals though, probably because they clog so much unit space that I end up using them on random shit.

Hmm, alright - fair enough. I'll try Zedus lead as well as Chrome.

What about RC3 and 4? I'm rank 6 but most of the drops I need for Buffer are RC4 - do those bosses have crit resistance? Tried to pull up a list of crit resistant raid bosses earlier but google fu failed me. And do you agree that that should be a pretty high-damage squad? Zedus works really...

I beat that guy once, got no drops, and decided since I only have like 6 Malices and 2 Buffers, working on them is time better spent for now. About to get my third Buffer, then after a few more I'll start working on the 40% I also don't understand how some people are putting out the damge...

Started working on spheres in earnest last night and the streamlining of raids makes a world of difference. But fuck joining so many raids with a boss already dead or about to die. I need these drops.

Cool, thanks. Those two take care of a lot, so good to find out they don't conflict.

I need to not slack off on spheres. Just haven't had a lot of time lately. Are Zedus and Haile gonna fuck each other up with competing atk down buffs? Because otherwise the two comprise a nice suite of damage buffs. Not liking Zedus's 12 hitcount sbb, though.

I too am bemoaning my lack of Charla, but mulling over the prospect of a Zedus sub. Seems like he'd work really well with Haile

Might have found religion, bros - got Zeruiah yesterday morning, courtesy of the serendipitous intervention of my demented 95 year old grandfather. He got my sister (an iphone owner) six $10 google play cards and me (a non-hipster) a $50 Starbucks card, so we switched and I summoned about 20...

I actually can't do progression because my account has that retardedly broken RAF benefit thaf gives one character like +300% and the other +100% xp bonus when in same group. Guess it'd work if I just played 1 character, but when I boxed i'd outlevel friends in group within a few hours.

I've returned to EQ a few times and had a blast fpr a few months, but eventually and inevitably burn out because grouping is such an insular activity in that game. Aside from House of Thule T1 there was never a place to find a group when I last played.

Alright, doing another 5 + 1. Making me cry that this bitch is going away permanently

Alright Ishad, I'm weak too. Here comes 5 + 1. edit: Varfed, Libera, Luther, Griff, Zergel, Haile. FML. Haile is Anima too, so now I get to decide whether it's worth imping since mine is Lord.

Fuck, seriously? As in (5 + 1) * 15 * 5 = 450 gems for a decent shot at a temporary unit? Fuck off Gumi. Even with my chronic luck with summons, there's no chance I'm biting. edit: link is just showing an empty team for me.

Holy fuck, just saw the Xmas unit on friends list - I waaaaaaant.

Wish I'd asked for a Charla or hell even a Ciara. Like Leto, I'm getting a Krantz.

If I had more Korzan friends I'd be all over dropping Chrome in favor of Haile because their leads pair so synergistically. She pairs plenty well with Avant, but I have trouble getting all my bases covered with those two slots taken up. Not having Charla still hurts, as does using Chrome as a...

Wow, gratz on Korzan. My issue with Avant is I have severe bb issues when I use him.

Had Haile as a friend unit since I got her but only now getting to use her a bit. Seems a lot better than I thought as a lead but I have no idea how to slot her. Plus I like Chrome. Hell, I prefer Chrome to the Avant that I got but still haven't used. His attack as Breaker is retarded, but I...

Wouldn't say I was having trouble =p. Auto-battling was getting foiled by enemies getting first strike and hitting me with ailments is all. Is annoying.

Reading More Money than God, by Sebastian Mallaby. Sort of a history of hedge funds. A hedge fund is one of those terms that I hear all the time yet never really felt like I knew about, so figured I'd read a book on them. Gripping enough, but so far it's more of a history of a few groups of...

Ugh covert Don Perignon stealing from my parents' cabinet has done me in in so many ways. Drunken ordered Trails of Cold Steel from amazon, ordered it their house accidentally (stored as primary amazon shipping address for some reason) and fessed up when called on drunkenness!

Not really. PS4 is better imo but not by that much, and having one is roughly equivalent of having the other, minus a few exclusives. Issue for me is Bloodborne is probably the best exclusive since Demon's Souls.

Cool, just started Spell Fencer on Tiz as he hit the 3500 to level up barrier on thief. Guess I'll max his Freelancer next since he's the only one that's really made much progress in it. This game, as friendly as it is for painless auto-grinding - doing it right now as I type - kinda makes...

Just picked up the Ranger myself, but haven't tried it yet. Ringabell was wrecking face with Monk, but he got to a level where it required like 3500 JP to level it further and at 10JP per battle I was pretty eager to start another job. Knight seems pretty meh, Black Mages seem pretty badass if...

I'm doing alright on Norende but have made a point of not purchasing many of the weapons and armor for fear of trivializing the game, but I guess I wasn't acting rationally at all. I made a long post about how the battle system, robust as it is, sucks for random encounters, proceed to bitch...

Might start one of those (or Trails) soon because I'm not sure BD is doing it for me. On chapter two. The job system is addictive, to be sure, and the battle system is really cool, but it's really only worth messing with on boss battles where you might die if you just auto it. I realized very...

That's the current plan since I'm at my parents' place for the week with 3DS/laptop only. Kinda insane, I was lamenting a lack of shit to play only a few days ago but checked my backlog and I have BD, Fantasy Life, Etrian IV, Stella Glow, Trails 1 + 2, Metal Gear 5, FFXIII-2, Dragon's Dogma and...

Looking forward to all the Trails games, but I need to finish either FFXIII-2 or Bravely Default. 3 long RPG's at a time and I know I'll abandon at least one.

Sigh, was gonna start the DLC today. Inserted BB disc, PS4 cannot read. Not sure how the disc got damaged, but fml.

Definitely buying a physical copy of Cold Steel (PS3 - I don't have a Vita) in the next few weeks, but I'll play Trails in the Sky 1 and 2 on steam first.

So what we see now is what we get, right?

What, exactly, is the genre? Is it more Skyrim or Baldur's Gate? Thinking about picking it up

Copy/pasted from an erroneous submission to the Bloodborne thread: Still playing XIII-2 and still ambivalent. It's certainly more fun than XIII, imo, but the people touting its non-linearity? Come. On. I dislike open-world games like GTA and Skyrim, but when I hear a jrpg is nonlinear I get...

Yeah, for that reason I haven't done a single summon since my stupid 15 bucks over Thanksgiving got me Haile. The odds of getting a Charla or Dolk or whatever are just too low.

edit: wrong thread

Loving this game's translations. "Summon these abysmal heroes now!" Wat
