    Crafting is such a crapshow right now. I half-heartedly get some red scrips for my CUL every week but that's about it.

    Who is funnier?

    I don't like this poll, it feels like my parents are divorcing and the judge is making me choose which one to stay with.

    Hartsman doesn't give a shit, your buddy is screwed. It's unfortunate but Trion has been banning accounts for the shittiest reasons in the past six months or so.

    The trick is running the ideal raid comp, becoming NEET, and becoming god mode at the game. Savage is AIDS.

    As long as it ticks before the ability goes off, yes. We did this a lot with Virus on Gigaflare in T13 while we were still getting used to the timing. The server doesn't update constantly, it's every couple of seconds. You can see this most evidently when you play BLM. Sometimes, when you...

    Games I had never heard of before Pax that are actually pretty awesome

    A lot of these are really cool, but No. Absolutely not. Superbrothers Sword & Sworcery is objectively the worst game I have ever played. Thank you for alerting me to stay far away from this one.

    Possibly, but this is still a complete waste of effort because Rampart + Sentinel is all you need to survive Plasma as a Pally.

    Hearthstone

    The way it was explained to me was that you just needed to do any long animation at the end of your turn. For every second of animation, your opponent would lose one second of their turn. Skip to 3:01 in the video. https://youtu.be/cRM2Ov8aKKQ

    I used to think it was, but RRing it for an Extended Balance or Arrow does way more for DPS. Spear is actually only a very tiny DPS increase.

    Hearthstone

    I don't know jack about Hearthstone, but this dude on YouTube was using a card called Nozdormu to skip his opponent's turn. It was pretty funny lol

    Off the top of my head, Balance: Spread it and wait for a good RR, then use it. Bole: Always RR it. Arrow: You can use it right away or spread it and wait for a good RR. Spear: RR it, unless healing is super intensive and you're going to be popping all your cooldowns within the next 20...

    Garuda is actually fairly challenging for a required leveling boss. I remember being stuck on Garuda NM until FC members were able to log on and help me because everyone in the DF was pants-on-head retarded. +GP earrings? Good luck selling them at all. The market for that is very small.

    Butthurt white guys, an Asian virgin and an angry lesbian walk into a bar...

    In California, if a guy is 18 and a girl is 17, and they have sex, that's statutory rape, and it can be reported as late as ten years after it happens, because the 17 year-old "can't consent." It's a very strict law.

    I'm a lyrics guy. They can make the song sound better, but lyrics are pretty important to me, too.

    I've been following them for a year or so now. I don't like most of their covers because I hate the original song and they don't make it much better, but I watch anything they do with Von Smith because his voice is amazing. https://youtu.be/g3iL596QKII

    Dark Souls 2

    I agree with Tuco about DS1 having better environments, but from a gameplay standpoint, I think DS2 was way better. More builds were viable and backstab/parry fishing was made impossible.

    Dark Souls 2

    That would be why. It's equivalent to using Ludwig's Holy Blade in Bloodborne. Not sure what game you're talking about, so I'll list the three that I know how they work for: Dark Souls 1: You can be invaded in any area if you aren't fighting a boss where you haven't killed the boss yet...

    I finished Bloodborne. Hooked my PS4 up to my computer monitor and was enjoying it a lot more. Not as much as DS or DS2, though.

    Haha, I'm like the kid you never wanted but are secretly glad you have! It's weird to think about it, but I was 14 when I joined Flames, and I even sent a PM to LFG asking him if it was okay for me to post there! It's been seven years, now! You're right man, thanks for the advice.

    Dragon Kick for the INT debuff (but if you have a DRK, they do the same thing with Delirium.) MNKs also have the 2nd highest AoE DPS in the game right now (behind SMN, ahead of BLM.) ...uh... Mantra? The only reason I switched to MNK from NIN is because my static PLD refused to go to...

    My ex and I broke up three years ago. I haven't dated anyone since then, and I haven't even been on a date since then. I've changed a lot since I broke up with my ex. I feel less confident and more socially awkward. Three years ago I graduated from high school. I was one of the top dogs. I...

    DRG is higher. MNK technically contributes the least DPS of the three melees. DRG has the highest DPS of the three, and also gives a 10% bonus to BRDs/MCHs. MNK isbarelya higher DPS than NIN, but doesn't provide any offensive utility to its group. NIN isbarelya lower DPS than MNK, but...

    Well, it only matters if you're in a min-maxxing hardcore raid. If you're not, don't worry about it. WHM/SCH comps got all of the world firsts, so WHM is still viable. It's just that AST is better. =P

    LET IT BE WRITTEN THAT PATCH 3.07 WAS THE DAY THAT SQUARE ENIX FINALLY KILLED OFF WHITE MAGE AST/SCH is just so superior to WHM/SCH now, it's silly. AST/SCH was already amazing, but now it's even better.

    According to statistics recently released by Square Enix on the last Letter from the Producer, the rarest classes are NIN, DRK, AST, and MCH... but I don't know how that holds up for only endgame play. WAR and SCH are the most-needed classes for endgame raiding, and will probably continue to be...
