    It's balance based on current feedback. While it's possible some things in Savage might change how classes are perceived, for the most part it'll just be the same.

    They'll do both probably. I think WHM's Glare potency is getting nerfed to 290, maybe 280 if they're feeling retarded, while AST is going to get a lot of potency increases across the board, probably 10 on Malefic at least and then all their shitty oGCD heals will get some. That's my expectation...

    The issue is very often the OT is the retard. They only have one job basically but they somehow fuck it up consistently. Almost done farming extreme fights, I did 20kills of Titania and done with that, got PLD/SCH/MNK weapons as drops and bought BLM cause it wasn't dropping, still have 10...

    Tbh at 80 BLM can afford quite a lot of movement, if it's planned. For example on Titania I don't mind doing tethers(and I'm always assigned a number anyway, yesterday one guy whined about it how the BLMs shouldn't do it but I said I didn't care). Depending on where exactly in my rotation I am...

    Because the higher you select, the more skill people have, so some classes change in ranking depending on their skill ceilling/floor. At the bottom percentile, the dumbest classes do as much DPS because people are fucking awful, at the highest, it's purely the class potential that defines the...

    "3pixels". Some of them are way way off position, pic included. Like the boss is literally on a side rune, so neither back or the other side rune can melee without moving off their runes. Shit takes like 3 steps to reposition too, you just drag it back in the center then go back to your rune...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    It was mostly during first mist runes where for some reason the boss wouldn't be in the center because you got hit by purple aoe or moved around or whatever, and then seeing people not being able to melee the damn boss cause it's completely off position even though you have like 12seconds to...

    Looks about standard for a learning/practice party, lots of people who clearly never stepped inside. You do a lot of fuckups too and god would I be raging if you were in my group when I'm on melee and you'd position the boss like you do. I watched a couple of the first runs and then a couple of...

    Did you autoupdate windows/gfx drivers? Reverting that shit might help.

    That's another thing they kinda fucked up, the HW unlocks are pretty bad. They corrected that after but HW stuff is still fucked, you can't get your HW skills withou going to Ishgard even though you will definitely hit 52 before that(can even hit like close to 60 with Road to 70) and you can't...

    They said they're bringing back Diadem shit so that'll probably replace Eureka. They should fix Eureka somehow though so people can do their relics/farm their dyable AF since currently it's pretty dead content and you need to organize stuff to get it done.

    The chocobo run is slower but you can afk. If you're on PC and especially on a SSD though, the Limsa way is like 50secs faster or something, which is quite a bit.

    It's not THAT much of a problem or they would have made it a priority, but yeah they'll eventually have to do something. With the New Game + shit they might actually have some new tech they can use to do stuff that lets people temporarily skip the MSQ or whatever. That said if you were a cynic...

    You can transpose, but you also shouldn't hesitate to swiftcast Fire I. If you're REALLY late with the swiftcast delay you won't make it, but if you're like 1.5-2secs left you can easily make it, and it way less disruptive than transpose, especially if you get lucky and proc a firestarter. Also...

    Na it's like 45mins then another 15-20mins with a break between the 2 iirc. You can also go afk midway as long as you don't have autoscrolling(can turn it off).

    I'd think getting into Canada might be a bit easier for people too than the US. I don't mind too much regardless since I'm not going anywhere, but China TI sounds kinda meh with how the chinese public is.

    On the trust question from earlier, you do get materias from the chests(like the 1st chest after 1st boss), but you don't get them as random drops, or I was super unlucky. So not worth it for materias pretty much although I guess if you bot it you could get like 6 an hour or something.

    I did the 80 dungeon with trusts but honestly can't remember anything about loot. My trusts are 1dungeon away from 80 so I'll tell you in a couple of hours if you don't find an answer. I assume droprates are massively reduced however. Generally the main issue would be, launch it in admin mode...

    I do this shit all the time, how else am I going to learn how to play the class in 8man. Mind you I put a minimum of effort into knowing the class first, but my first Titania MT run was... interesting. I was trying to remember when the tank busters were and got hit by the very first pink aoe...

    I don't know every game that had that also had bots who could break it cause it was implemented poorly enough. Yeah he just retarded. You're supposed to taunt during the cast, unless it's one of the few tankbusters that retarget at the end(there's a couple iirc). For innocence you definitely...

    Probably Spriggan. I believe bots just made all their new accounts on that since it's Preferred and new(so they had no queues), but now they're shitting up the server.

    Yeah anything works. You can spam a random key+mouse to get it done even faster too. Honestly shit's really pointless so it's good they don't abuse it. It's neat visually but otherwise sucks. I kinda wish they had more of the Alexander one where you have to press the button to jump off, but...

    I mentionned it a long while ago but yeah the turn automatically shit will make you turn if you try to use skills while running sometimes, UNLESS you use legacy controls, then it works fine. It got me to switch. I couldn't be bothered mouse snapping backwards to hit a GCD right as I was getting...

    Aapoak, in west caliban in The Tempest. Have to fish eyes mooch for it during certain hours and weather, but it's a shit ton of scrips. Remember collector gloves.

    Oh didn't notice it had weird conditions. Made me check the tracker webpage though and seems it's updated with 5.0 so I'll just check that out to go fish it whenever. I'll try to get it tomorrow still but if I don't it's ok I'll stock a few for later, even not starred it should pay a good amount...

    Oh shit I got the big fish starred collectible, I need to craft some gathering gear and get that shit done. 1990 white scrips per catch, need to catch a few of these fucks before the reset tomorrow. Ironically also got the first alchemy starred turn in at the same fucking time, so I'll try to...

    Oh I see it's a real bot, thought it was like pseudo afk bot. Meh I enjoy the leveling process for the most part, I just don't like this trust lvling shit, once I'm done with these 2 chars leveling these guys I won't touch the others until they nerf xp/add a challenge log to it, shit takes too...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I don't bot them but I kinda afk through the dungeons on half the runs, just move to next pack every now and then. The bosses are annoying though, if you don't play tank, you kinda have to do them, not sure how your friend bots them. Like you get hit by too many stack vulns and just die to...

    It's not that ACT gets you banned, it doesn't. It's that it's technically against the ToS, and while it's tolerated, using it to diss other people isn't(well to their face at least). It isn't really different than the usual harassment rules though, don't be a dick to people because if they...

    Yeah, I did the raids right at release, smooth clears, only wiped to the "ah gotcha that's an instant wipe" mechanics. But then I was checking some streams a few hours later and people were dying over and over in E4N and E2N for example, and it looked awful. The first fight is stupidly easy...

    You can do normals with min ilvl, nothing hits really that hard, unless you're trying to solo tank last boss or whatever. Extremes you need the ilvl to enter but that's about it, shit doesn't hit hard either. Honestly pretty sure you can hit 80, run each 80 dungeons once, buy a ring and then...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I mean there's some story, but not that much interesting stuff, the filler part is more how they'll ask you to go gather some shit to do the thing, while later they just go "ok let's use this thing I had in my pocket to do this" and you just do the stuff instead, if that makes sense. There's a...

    You should have plenty of "new" dungeons to clear at 50 if you want a change of pace, 50 was crazy with dungeon releases, motherfuckers were doing 3 dungeons every patch so there's 17dungeons at cap or whatever. A few are story so can't do without MSQ but most should be playable right away. The...

    Cleared the new raid, very easy on normal but still fun mechanics. Fights are pretty cool. I like the change to gear drops too, way less cancer, 8drops that include every slot in every floor means you can get chest or legs in one week and that it won't take 25runs of each floor for it. Sadly I'm...

    HoH is shit, caps at 69 xp so it scales like garbage past 71-72. Just dungeons, FATEs during queues, and roulettes. Queues are pretty quick even for DPS atm, at least on my datacenter I often get 10mins or less queue, sometimes only 1-2mins for ShB dungeons.

    In the reddit post about it there were apparently quite a few chinese comments about how disgusting it was, with one comparing it to kissing a morbol, so yeah. I mean vegan shit can be good, but mushroom burger definitely doesn't sound like it. I'm biased since I don't really like mushrooms to...
