They constantly nerfed golems but pretty sure Carrion and Stone golems are still a thing. Ele golems are kinda dead, they nerfed them a bunch and then they removed EE too. I think there's some unique chest you can use to ignore resists entirely which would make them ok but that has several...

WEX is weakness exploit. Axe Hopper is a switch skill for iirc the 3rd skill, replaces the guard counter thing, have to do the quest for it. The counter basically gives you 5 phials which is ok, but Axe Hopper is an axe attack(can use from sword form though) than then jumps into the air, and...

Do you have a proper setup for it? Load Shells 2 is pretty much mandatory and replaces Focus 3 from World(you can still use focus but it's honestly kinda shit it feels like). Load Shells let you get 5 phials as soon as the gauge is yellow, instead of red, so you can usually get it with one...

On the flipside the odds of getting one you can use are probably close enough to 0, and the price for any of the good nodes is going to be astronomical. It offers a lot of options though. Things like poison prolif on ranger, perma fortify on duelist, rage zerker node or end charge juggernaut...

It really isn't that. The point is people thought they'd have time to prepare stuff before they have to "rush" to endgame. Not necessarily a long time, but for example in XIV when the expansion launched, it didn't have the raids at launch. It did have some "endgame" fights but they purposefully...

It's old news. Honestly I personally don't mind that part at all seeing as how it's optional(I think?), but in the same patch they also covered the Succubus more because she was "too sexy" or whatever, so yeah it's a bunch of dumb shit.

There's one to display debuffs in a non shitty way that I'd use if I ever bothered installing the launcher thing. Also one for better cooldowns display(big number on buttons) and a bunch of qol stuff like showing ilvl on inspect and what not, nothing too big but the Dalamud plugins had a lot of...

Seems absolutely pointless, especially since they're giving tab affinity for them. A random old non upgraded tab for gem and one for flask and that's good enough.

But if you need to mow a lawn, you could hire goats, they'd do a somewhat shitty jobs, but they'd do it for free/cheap. That's really all it means, people with passion can be exploited to work more for less.

It's really unclear what they're doing for our version seeing as how it's a unique launch. They will add catch up mechanics later for sure but as for the release stuff it's hard to tell. Seeing as how they want to add raids(the big ones, since they call a bunch of shit raids in this game) asap...

T3 announcement is getting mixed reception, largely because it makes it rough to make alts from the get go. You'll want to grind all the way to T3 asap on your first char to get access to weeklies and shit in there cause they give a lot more rewards than weeklies in previous tiers. That means...

The big map will come in a later patch. At release, it'll only be the standalone new map stuff.

It's also quite possible Zana has a bunch of new functions with the new Atlas(similar to how she gives orbs and shit), so they split it between 2 NPCs, one for the map thing that only does that(Kirac), and one for all the new map modifier stuff(and that's Zana). I guess they could have her die...

Haven't started Apex in normal quests just yet, I finished Valstrax armor and almost finished gathering all the random crap to test weapons, need a few more decos and pieces of armor. The weapons I tested somewhat recently after playing IG/HH/Switch Axe a bunch early on: SnS isn't as bad as I...

Not sure how that's relevant though? Like what do games have to get longer later in the series or something? Should FF16 be 350hours? Games can be all the same length it really doesn't matter, and other souls probably didn't have nearly as much side/optional content as this will have. Granted...

30hours for rushing through the main objectives in an open world game sounds perfectly fine, not sure how it's "really short".

Yeah for Apex mats for the rampage weapons and stuff, just do rampage, the normal fights are like challenge fights and really don't reward enough I think, but in rampage it's super easy and you get a bunch of other mats too. I made the rampage HBG earlier, took me like an hour or so of doing...

Well I'm too lazy to find the exact time, but the OW2 announcement was nov 2019 and pretty sure the last content patch was right after, so yeah been 2 years now, probably will be 2.5 years total. They did patch a few things over time, but they basically stopped adding characters and maps to the...

Cleared the HR50 stuff and grinding to HR 100 now for the last bit of content. I have so many decorations I'd need to grind but so far I've been fucking around with various weapons and trying to get basic builds for them. Got a Charge Blade build, it's alright, I think better than World but...

Which would have been a fine move, had they actually released OW2 in a timely fashion after that to get the big money. Instead it was over 2years ago now, and it seems it's likely ~6months off still. That'll be close to 3years since they announced it.

Village is like easy mode hunts compared to hub. Hub is "normal" MH difficulty, village is like story mode stuff, so it's REALLY easy. You'll notice a big difference when you switch over. I did village first too and it was dumb dumb how fast stuff died, but it also means you can progress...

BLM is barely behind though? Like it needs a buff, but not one that'd make you see 20k xenos. 4-5% at most. The numbers are gonna be smaller, that's the whole point of the stats squish. Xeno wasn't even that big before, there were several other skills that did more damage(Tech Dance or Hyosho...

Rampages are pretty ok in parties I thought, like there's more monsters and more shit going on. It's still super easy since you can cart as many times as you want, but at least it's somewhat fun just blasting tons of shit and ganging up on the last boss with 3 people mounting shit and spamming...

Well the fight isn't that tough on enrage either, we even used heal LB3 to do life's agony cause after all the rez the healers were missing some shit and figured they'd just ignore it instead(no AST to do it for free), and still made the enrage, although barely, the cast was almost done when it...

Was static, first pull of the day, last time we got to enrage like once in a full reset(RPR was new to the fight, cleared P2S first time that day but still we got consistently to tornados or so). Died once to being stupid(wasn't far enough on fountain and got clipped by other people's birds)...

Shit, finally killed P3S but... https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/803588621180600354/933791873452089394/0.jpg

Thing about status is you rarely will get 2 procs on the same hunt with just buddies from what I've seen so far, I think even if it's dog with status attack and umbrella unless the monster is weak to that type of status, and if that's not the case, it makes no difference if it comes a bit...

Yeah I got 2 like that too, no go fight win though(probably will look into recruiting one), 2nd one has just spinning top or whatever, and mine. Both with status and knockout, didn't take too long to find. I'd assume if you're purely going for fast clears, attack or bombardier would be better...

I do agree especially on the part about comparing classes' DPS via FFlogs but looking only at the bars and who's above who, rather than the numbers themselves and comparing by how much exactly are they above. So many people are such fucking giant crybabies when it comes to FFlogs even when the...

Well it matters on every fight you have to tank swap for, some you don't really have to(for example P1S) so it kinda doesn't matter, just annoying with the boss flipping around and what not. That said even if you're PLD you can pull aggro up after a provoke depending on when it happens on your...

Oh the baseline recover move is great, I meant specifically the 2 IG ones, one is literally just a jump for some reason, I guess you can use it mid jump to extend aerial chains(you're limited to 3 bounces in the air but the silkbind lets you get more) but I don't stay in the air that long so...

On pad you can set soft targets, you just use up and down to move the selection to the target, hit an oGCD and it'll go to that without losing your main target. With mouse, you can use janky macros, or you have to switch. With the fairly long GCD though it's not really a problem imo. Also A LOT...

I switched twice already and probably will switch some more later on, really up to you what you play I'd say. I'm on IG atm too, love the small changes, those new Kinsects that suck up 2 buffs at the same time make it so much better(even if they're slow as fucking molasses goddamn are they...

Maybe your co-healer isn't healing enough? There's several places in this tier where it feels until BiS you kinda want to GCD heals here and there for safety, especially Cure III/Medica II/Horoscope+Aspected Helios and SCH/SGE shields pre-emptively. For spread and people running too far that's...

So gave HH a good spin now, did HR4 and HR5 with it, and damn it's strong. It's so much stronger than in World, and already in Iceborne they made HH pretty good. It's also so much easier to get into. Don't have to memorize songs per horns, don't have to do the little buffing dance before the...

You mean Arzuros, the bear? There's 2 different HR quests for it, HR 4stars, Divine Comedy has Arzuros+Kulu and if you scroll to the other page, there's Blue, Round and Cute with a solo Arzuros capture quest.

Yeah guess I didn't look it up much before starting and then I couldn't be bothered, it's not that bad, I thought I couldn't prevent windows updates in Home but apparently I can and that's really the only thing I cared about. The case is also kinda weird, the USB ports on the top are really...

Been doing a bunch of P3S, getting most of the mechanics but still people dying to a lot of common shit, and it doesn't help the strats are all "the same but slightly different". One party has H+R and M+T but other is M+H and T+R(which is better for uptime on spreads), then you have some going...

The issue I had with the current HP Omen thing I have is it fucks up with installing different versions of windows. I tried a few times the first day and just kinda gave up on it. Basically it has the windows install saved up in there somewhere so that if you format for whatever reason, it'll...

Investigations were like you'd loot tracks/break parts from monsters and get limited supplies of purple quests for a monster, like say kill Nergigante quest and can redo it 3 or 5times, and you'd have 3-5boxes on them and the additional boxes would provide a chance at drops(and when tempered...
