    DOTA 2

    Interesting they confirmed that. I guess they plan on finishing the 2nd tutorial before then. Still weird they're gonna "release" without full heroes though, and with a bug list that's like 600-700 entries big.

    Jobs aren't until 30 anyway, I assume a storyquest will explain it to you once you reach that, but storyquests stopped before 30 in P3 anyway. Basically at 30 in a class, your class trainer will unlock a new quest which also requires 15 in another class to start, and it's like a specific job...

    Arcanist and jobs won't be until open beta/P4. Well jobs should be available to 1.0 players once they activate that(which should be next weekend) so we should get info on them at least. Arcanist nope.

    What's funny about FFXIV graphics is apparently their lightning engine shit isn't turned on cause they had issues with it, and what's even funnier is it looks worse than 1.0 on a lot of things because of the changes they had to do for the PS3. On the other hand, it still looks amazing AND runs a...

    DOTA 2

    Been watching dota since hon beta or so, I wasn't in the genre at all until I got into hon beta(and even then it took me a few months before I checked the game out). Very quickly after watching hon competitive I started watching dota1 competitive games even though I had never played dota so I...

    The way to do it which was most efficient was, unlock the chocobo in Vesper Bay(there is one even though there's no crystal), Attune to the crystal in Drybones and Horizon. Then from the Vesper starter, you use Teleport to the crystal in Drybones, you get the Teleport spell very early in the...

    For the quest chain he's talking about, there's no crystal in Vesper Bay where the HQ for the Resistance or whatever the name is, so you have to TP to the nearest town(Horizon I think it was) then do a 1min long chocobo run. Then you turn in the quest, pick next, and have to TP back to Drywood...

    I believe yes something else, but it might have been that video, hopefully not, I want to see spells and shit. As for the fairy, not a big deal to me, as long as it does a proper job. That's what I don't know, will the Fairy be casting ALL the heals, will it be squishy, that kind of stuff.

    Yeah I guess the downtime is a good point. Rezing retards who died to charging golems in MC after every pull, marking the 12 mobs of the next pull, doing a ready check to make sure not more than half the healers were afk, plenty of time to chat then. During combat though really not. I doubt...

    They said they'll show the Arcanist in a video probably, so maybe we can tell a bit more. But yeah when P4 starts I'll have to make an arcanist just to check all the spells and do a last minute choice for my class. I'm interested to see if Scholar will be like token side healer shit of if there...

    I think he means people who bought 1.0 and quit instantly. Granted it was pretty stupid to buy it if you've played the open beta at the time but eh. One of the few games I didn't buy. Considering the reduced price tag and the state of the game now though I'm definitely buying it, unless I get...

    You had time to type during wow when exactly? The only way that happened is if you were semi afking during the MC days and getting carried, wow initiated the fast paced fights trend with the 1.5s GCD and shit you have to press on cooldown, procs and what not. I think in Vanilla some specs might...

    Yeah they'll have more jobs per classes, even though I'm not too sure how it's going to work yet since currently jobs use the same weapon types as their base class but to add most of the obvious classes, they'll need to change that. Assuming they decide to change though, stuff that could easily...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    DPS isn't that bad actually, it's not as good but once you get Stone 2 and for like a dozen of levels, you kill stuff single target faster than a THM can(until they get Fire 3 which is like 32 or 34). It's not stellar but it's adequate, just the fact you only spam one spell is horribly boring...

    Well as far as I've seen grouping seems faster xp than soloing if you have a decent group. Mobs in dungeons die about as fast as solo mobs, but give about 5times more xp, which easily makes up for quests(which are not very abundant anyway), and if you're aoe spamming they die even faster...

    I don't think anything wins vs OD in mid without ganks, prison is just too good at buffing his damage, removing all mana from the enemy and making them miss last hits. The issue is what you can do with an OD. I mean, if you get to sit mid for 20mins you'll roll people no problem and that happens...

    You can only sync down for duty(instanced quest shit), guildleves/hests and dungeons, and well FATE if you run into one. But really that's basically all group content, you just can't sync down to do normal quests with a friend. And leveling additional classes is fine up to lvl 15 or so, but...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    They said in one of the dev thing that they made some of the dungeons in the original game into group based open areas with larger scale FATE(public quests), so there should be. I didn't see any though but I didn't lvl that much, only got to 22.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    You don't redo the main quests regardless, like you can't. You can only do one main quest, the one you start in. When you go to another starting zone, you can only do the class quests there for your new class, as well as the normal quests, but you only ever do the main quest once, in fact it...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    You don't redo the main story quests though. I guess you can grind dungeons but I don't know if it'll be that easy to find groups. However, it should be noted that the way they are currently balanced, you can complete the content without a CNJ, as long as multiple people have Cure slotted(and...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Well I haven't compared DPS to many other classes but THM outdmg CNJ easily, no question there, so don't know about raping people. The DPS is good though, it's just BORING AS FUCK, I didn't say it was hard or bad, just boring. Pressing one button, regardless of how good the button is, is boring...

    The CNJ weren't interesting either, but they were tuned hard enough that there's a bunch of whining on the forums about how they're "impossible". Same for THM tbh. There's a lot of bitching about one where you apparently just have to sleep 2 mobs and run past them... Anyway overall I liked...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I've found the personnal quests and shit to be fairly tightly tuned. Not like super super hard but hard enough that you need to do it just right. One of my CNJ quest had 2 NPCs fighting high health mobs. If you waste your mp nuking, you run out before the event is done and you get raped. You...

    Jobs add new abilities, in 1.0 it was like 5 new abilities(1 of them is an ultimate super long cooldown ability), so it's not revolutionary, but since they're fairly strong abilities, they make the role stronger too. In some cases they also change the role, like going from Archer(meh ranged DPS)...

    Jobs aren't in for this phase though, well only for 1.0 copied characters. I've been keeping them for now but if I hit a point where I can't do anything else I'll just burn them I think. You get into a Grand Company at some point though, I assume when you've completed more of the storyquest, and...

    After the 3 dungeons, there's another storyline that opens where you join the recurring NPCs that helped you before, there's a bunch of quests after that, it does stop at some point though but I just got the lvl 20 quest so it either stops at 20 or 25. There's also quests in various zones but...

    There's probably a vod somewhere of demon playing mid omni and raping someone back when they were doing the knight strat. And one of him getting raped. Hero isn't very good but he can win some lanes, or at least not lose too hard. Taking TCM as an example for anything though, really? I mean I...

    DOTA 2

    Yeah thought the slow was stronger early on, I guess it's just the scaling that's crazy good so probably wouldn't work so well. Do have a silence too so that's a bit different I guess.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Once you're 6 you get the stance that increases dmg quite a bit. It's not gonna get much faster than that though and cross classing won't help with DPS either. You could just change class though but regardless you'll need to hit 10 first. Otherwise you have to reroll.

    Drow isn't that bad but she's not OP either. She's basically a glass canon. She is THE glass canon of the game, no other heroes come close to the defition. She has no mobility, soft disables(silence with a shitty cast point and a slow that requires constant attacks) as defense, low health. She...

    Sadly if you're a marauder, you're stuck until 16ish when you can travel to other cities, because the ferry is buggy as fuck or is asking for way too much money. Most likely just buggy though, maybe it's asking for preconversion price which would be 50k I believe. For the other classes, you can...

    Just noticed from a reddit post on how Red Projekt the Witcher 3 devs won't even be able to play their own game on Xbone at release that somehow Microsoft decided anything east of Germany isn't Europe. That's pretty fucking sad. It's like they really don't want people to buy their consoles at...

Whatever though I don't feel this is trying to compete with Tera in terms...
