    DR is worth it if you have a second relic on the artifacts step. Otherwise, spam Hell's Lid or do a Dalriada here and there.

    Except that as usual, for a show with a lot of signs, Netflix won't translate half of them and the remaining half will have utter shit typesetting with subtitles blocks all over the place. I'll definitely take the fansubs for this one.

    Yeah i'm just running leveling roulettes because I also need some bitter memories again for a 5th relic and taking a break from Bozja for a bit.

    Roulettes are so painful lately, sometimes i'd rather eat the 30 minutes penalty than go through some of these leveling roulettes... Yesterday I got Don Mehg, single pulling tank, doesn't interject the Fuath buffing the other mob, healer manages to let the tank die on the third pack of mob. I...

    I would wait for boosts. After early access they'll probably release lvl80 boosts.

    They added most of the fragments to the cluster vendors in Zadnor/Bozja, so you can farm clusters to buy them (though hard if you don't have any anymore). People also sell them on the marketboard, it's not that expensive depending on the ones you want. Castrum Lacus Litore also drops quite a...

    I'm pretty sure she is a DNC main. Yeah, you've done the most annoying for the relic. Now it's just a matter of running DR a lot of time. I did 10 speed runs yesterday, finished my 3rd and 4th weapons. My brain was fried afterward.

    She's a legit player, moved from WoW back around WoD/Heavensward. She's been one of the most well known FFXIV streamer for years (help that we didn't use to have a lot of them).

    A bit disappointed that there is no surprises for MNK. It's basically everyting we knew after last LL, nothing new, and Anatman is still useless.

    Also for RDM, you only need 50 B/W mana for the melee combo, and you get 2 charges of the gap closer as well as 2 charges of the jump back/alternative to jump back. And Manafication instantly gives you 50 B/W and restores a charge of each.

    So GamerEscape uploaded tooltips infographics early on a non secure easily accessible public URL, so we got skill tooltips for most jobs out of it (not MNK sadly). We don't have the Traits though. That SMN rework looks dope, and they have a consistant rotation starting at low level.

    Yeah, according to MrHappy on Twitter it's 5 am PDT, so still a few hours. Damn it, I wanted to enjoy it with my morning coffee. As far as CE go in Zadnor, they do not pop by themselves. People need to kill magitek ennemies to make them pop. So depending if your instance is just full of...

    Yeah at this point the most annoying part to me are the 60 memories from HW Fates. That part is bullshit and boring.

    Yeah I'm not touching Animas again for a while lol. Meanwhile, I finished my second Resistance weapon, am on the last stage on the third, and on the early stages of a fourth. The way you can progress multiple steps by doing a single activity (mainly DR for the last 2 steps) kinda encourages...

    EU DCs just got hit by superweird issues. Like half the people online got DCed. The servers didn't take a crap because the other half was still in somehow. Then there was a second wave of people getting disconnected, but somehow there are still people online. And impossible to reconnect even...

    Yeah, PAL definitely got some changes that could get me more interested in the job. DRK kinda got shafted though. I'm not one of those with huge issues about the ShB DRK iteration, but next to all the shiny tools the other tanks got.... Living Dead is still Living Dead while Holmgang and...

    Yeah I get you. One of my favourite MNK weapon are the Fist of the Fiend. I love weapons that actually replace your gloves. Kinda wanted to go back to Eureka for the Pyros/Hydatos knuckles too. Fuck the last step there though, it's ugly.

    Well, after talking about it, decided to abandon the GNB last step to do MNK first. It really is pretty nice.

    Yeah I'd rather level through something like Bozja/Zadnor than level through PoTD/HoH. They already confirmed Deep Dungeon return for EW though I think.

    I think all the MNK steps were pretty cool this time around. Wasn't sure about the Law's Order steps looking at screenshot but they ended up looking great in game.

    I think some of the replicas without the glowing shards actually look better than the glowy versions lol. My goal is doing GNB (only need 2 more emotions), MNK (just done the timeworn part), and then I'll probably do MCH because I like the model being on the sleeker side.. Casters the only one...

    I finished this last week. The first half was quick enough, just farming skirmishes in Zadnor I got those 90 in like 2 or 3 days, getting into CEs when they popped for the others ones. Had to farm O3 and E3 quite a bit to finish the second half though. I remember doing like 15 E3 in a row the...

    Yeah you'll definitely find some on the regular during prime time currently. If you have 2 relics on the last 2 steps, it's the quickest way to farm timeworn artifacts and raw emotions in one go.

    For anyone still doing relics, please do yourself a service, and absolutely do not run Delubrum with randoms. After catching up on relic, I got into Delubrum speedruns PF and man the difference is night and day. The instance takes like a quarter of the time and you skip most fucking annoying...

    Vuln stack have always been a thing. I think what they started using more lately are damage downs for messing up mechanics though. Really motivates your BLM not to stand in shit for once.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Honestly outside of Ultimate or Savage week 1 min-ilvl prog, it barely matters. By the time week 3/4 rolls out, you have enough tomestone gear to offset the damage "loss". Otherwise, it's just parsing optimization. I'm an old man too and tend to find statics on the more casual side. Progging a...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Oh yeah, the buff window optimization will probably be some gigabrain ridiculous stuff. Reminds me that I saw Perfect Balance for new MNK may be useable out of combat, which would lead to 20+ sec pull timers if true. I hope we don't have to deal with that shit.

    Generating Shroud gauge is not that straightforward. When you use Soul Gauge, it gives you Demonic Scythe (or Demon's bells depending on translations) stacks (which are not shown on job gauge). Normal OGCDs give you one stack, the big one gives you two. You use one stack for each step of your 2...

    I'm surprised they actually made RPR a job on the more complicated side with a lot of spinning plates (and as usual, somehow they didn't include some of the plates in the job UI for some reason). I'm not looking forward to all the shit RPR in DF.
