Man Baldesion is something. It's a really specific thing though, it's not a regular type of content.

Just turn them in, their point is just to unlock the dungeon. And, uh, every healer point is to balance DPS and healing.

Leveling roulette gets you the bonus only once daily. If you're leveling a healer, highest level dungeon you can run works well and gives you practice. Otherwise, it's POTD leveling to make you want to kill yourself. Not that the dumb groups you'll get in DF won't make you want that too.

You can visit servers on the same Datacenter simply by using the Aetheryte in main cities.

Let's say a part of the community is....questionnable.

Every job quests giving skills for HW/pre-HW jobs is a design they changed later on. Past lvl60 for old jobs and new jobs don't get any skills from job quests aside from the lvl70 capstone skill.

Avoiding the French from Moogle is worth the 20 bucks or so. :D I was so glad when they split Light and Chaos and Moogle ended on the other side from me.

Yeah, in the Mogstation, Optional Services, Home World Transfer Service.

If they are Roegadyns and it's not something incredibly 4th wall breaking, the adjective noun names are actually lore accurate. https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Roegadyn/Naming

Good old E1 and its midfight 2 minutes break.

It's kinda been an issue, they've been trying to keep the same numbers of buttons for jobs from expansions to expansions (some jobs being already bloated enough), and it's mainly the below 50 levels that suffered from the pruning. Though boosting won't change shit when you're running dungeons...

XIV always did it like this. Flying in the old ARR zones was only added in 5.3, couldn't fly there until recently. Flying in expansions has always been locked behind Aether currents and quest completion for the zone. But at least, you can fly there as soon as you are done with the zone. It's...

Also for trials there are always two tanks, one of them twiddling his thumbs because barely any of them need an offtank. You can hope the other will MT.

No SJW looks that hot, let's admit it.

My last buy was Lyse's outfit from Stormblood (the red jacket and short shorts). Looks good on Viera.

I love Kryle and her british accent. Also, her outfit is sold on the mogstation.

The guys popping up may be botters that travel under the world too. Game has a lot of botters sadly.

Nero is an antagonist until Crystal Tower. After you defeat the Empire at the Praetorium, he kinda goes on to do his own thing in search of Allagan technology. He was in the same class as Cid in the academy and is kinda jealous/looks up to Cid. He doesn't really follow the Imperial "ideals", he...

Queued Leveling Roulette as DNC, ended up in Cutter's Cry with 3 sprouts... It was....slow... Tanks running away to kill stray mobs when we get to shifting sands to go to the next part of the dungeon, stuff like that... We get to the last boss, the Chimera, and I take the time to warn them "ram...

Uematsu only did main themes (up to SB) and a few tracks once ARR released (1.0 was lot of his music though). The main genius at work here is Soken. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_of_Final_Fantasy_XIV

Would you like some meteors and golems? Edit : damn Youtube still has the video of our clear my FC posted back in the days. That was something.

Turn 9 PTSD is still strong.

You'll have like a 45+ minutes cutscene at the end of 2.55, but they'll warn you beforehand. Oh and yeah, if you just did Keeper of the Lake, you still in fact have 2 trials left before the end.

FFXIV can kinda have a "casual toxicity" to it. Bads are not pushed to improve, in most content they are fully expected to be carried by competent players. So you end up with freestyle samurais or dumb as bricks tanks. The sad part is that some people could actually and would accept advice, but...

I always loved Keeper of the Lake. You have one more patch including a trial ( and a ridiculous fetch quest or two I'll admit) . I'd suggest to not skip from here on.

Didn't see you were not right though! Just going on a crusade about a shit game was...something i guess?

Shit, summer is coming and I'm late on most of the spring shows because I kinda missed a week or two and then became too lazy to catch up.

Reading popsicle kinda feel like reading Utnayan during his halcyon days in the forums. Very high level sperging. I wonder if he also has "notes" to check.

It's crazy when you contrast this to Blizzard's dev cycle. FFXIV team managed to release content like clockwork for ARR and two followup expansions until COVID hit around patch 5.2.

You have to remember that the game is built upon the jank that was 1.0. To this day, the developpers still struggle with some of the shitty code and other weird database decisions that were made before them (which is also why inventory management is such a mess). I still get annoyed that you...

That's the difference between WoW and FFXIV : WoW devs will do EVERYTHING in their power to make you go through the content they created repeatedly. Meanwhile, FFXIV devs are like "Here's a new system/type of content, do it if you'd like". They make different and varied types of content...

What I'd recommend to do if you want to push a tank/healer job is what i'm currently doing leveling WHM : alternate between the highest dungeon you can do and some POTD. I usually end up running each dungeon two times plus a serie or two of 10 floors in POTD before I get to the next dungeon...

Roulette bonus are just once per day, including the xp. I think MSQ roulette is already more than enough once per day for our own sanity.

Yeah it's like whm bind and sleep spells. Old fluff leftovers.

"Mix of melee and range" is a bit overstating it. You have one melee phase consisting of a 3 hit combo everytime you're done building black/white mana and it's not flexible at all. Most of the time you'll be casting. At least the casting rotation is not too rigid since it's proc based.

Then again applying Storm's Eye has diminishing return depending on the number of targets in AOE situation, even more so as long as you don''t have the second part of the AOE combo that refreshes it. But yeah, the number of tanks I see hitting one AOE and then switching to single target...

Leveling roulette doesnt award poetics. It only starts with MSQ/Trial/Alliance/50 dungeons roulette.

I'll leave this here as that may be interesting for some people. Like parsers, it's against the ToS, but as long as you don't go shouting around about it in game you don't risk anything. goatcorp/FFXIVQuickLauncher It's an alternative launcher that allows add-on support in game (add-on list...

Macros are terrible. No queuing and wonky as fuck. Good god please don't macro your combos. Also, that GNB combo is 2 skills, and one AOE finisher. And you should only be using your AOE OGCD (Bow Shock) in your No Mercy window.
