    Bottom one is Aetherflow, use energy drain to get 2, then use other skills to spend(Fester or Bane or whatever the aoe nuke is named). Using them generate ressource for the dragon thing. Once you have enough, Dreadwyrm Trance. Once you've done that enough, Bahamut summon. Once capped, you can...

    Btw reminder in case of, it's monday, weekly reset tomorrow, do your shit even if it takes a bit of time. Fashion report(this week is annoying unless you have swimsuits from various events I think), Doma reconstruction(bit of free gold for 30secs of stuff), Custom deliveries(lots of xp still)...

    Steam and not Steam are entirely different "versions" are do not work with each other. An account that uses non steam cannot ever use Steam products on it(expansions and such), and vice versa. If your original account is not steam, then you need expansions from not steam. It clearly says so on...

    Garland was updated, you can check the gear there and find who sells it, sadly not fully updated yet. Lvl 74 Atrociraptor is sold notably by "Mord Junkmonger" so I guess vendor is in Mord Souq in Ahm Araeng but might be from the higher level area in there. Otherwise Rakatikka Greatwoods probably...

    I did the first 2 dungeons with trusts, and the first one with players to compare. Both trust runs were 30mins on the dot(2nd one slightly more my food buff wore off during last boss fight near the end, first one little bit less I had 40secs left on it). This is how it's meant to be from what...

    It isn't uncommon for story mode to be as challenging and sometimes more challenging than EX, both because of retards and because of weirder gear requirements without full skillsets.

    You'll get them if you do synced content that's lower than Felcleave and shit, at least if it's like other stuff. It's like Stone I/II/III for WHM and so on, or Rage of Halone for PLD now(once 60, Rage of Halone gets upgraded to Royal Authority, instead of being its own thing). You can kinda...

    DNC gets noticeably more interesting at 72 when you get Flourish. It's only on one minute cd and lights up all your procs, so you get a good amount of fan feathers out of it(and a fan dance III proc base), so all of a sudden you can get some pretty good oGCD weaving going on especially if you...

    Nvm talked too soon. It seems Amh Araeng has 70 nodes, could see them fine at 70, but Kholusia nodes seem to be higher levels so they don't appear at 70.

    Launcher had a couple of hiccups for me(crashed right away when servers came up, then was laggy), got in first time then 2002 login server errror shit while ingame, back to launcher, then got in after a couple more launcher crashes and now in queue, started at 1700 but going down pretty fast...

    Cross server linkshells within the same datacenter yes, already existed, they now increased them to 8 like normal ilnkshells. Nothing like @Rezz suggested as far as cross datacenter stuff though, everything is limited to datacenters other than server transfers.

    It's being linked on the spoilers discord of The Balance and Reddit, people kinda linking a lot of random shit though so it's better to just wait for the reddit post that'll just sort all that shit properly.

    Seems datamining is starting. The first batch of primal weapons are looking really nice.

    Bots don't bother gathering unspoiled shit that spawns once every 20mins though I don't think. As noted above this might also be only for Diadem nodes? Anyway bots don't really control the prices on these, people "failling" aetherial reduction while aiming for sands get thousands of clusters...

    At SB launch people would get 2-3hours queue in the evening every day. If you think they were doing that to make the game more popular, you'd have to be pretty stupid.

    Note, Trusts are only for ShB dungeons for now. They will work on adding them back on SOME content, maybe, eventually, but for now it's pure 70+ content, so not very relevant for you atm. There's Squadrons for ARR/HW dungeons, but they don't cover all dungeons, work differently and require...

    Yeah I'm unsure about this change, it seems weird, since you can't aetherial reduce at 50, so in theory someone without the expansions won't be able to get materials for 50 crafts, which is weird. Unless maybe it meant they're moving them from Unspoiled nodes to normal nodes(the line was in the...

    The initial download went up a few hours after maintenance, but then you had to download more shit later in the day. Kinda surprising it's not up already, at least the first part.

    A good tip would be to read the tip popups since they kinda tell you that. I know people hate popups but they're pretty informative and fairly short. Things that you could probably miss would be... The combat chocobo quest in South Shroud(Camp Tranquil) that lets you use your chocobo in the...

    90% means unusable in most cases as far as I'm concerned. Can use it for manual crafting MAYBE, but honestly it's generally not worth risking fucking up 2 synth in a row and getting completely fucked out of your craft because of bad RNG. You'd need to require crazy optimization to need it too...

    Early access, they said so during one of the live letters. Won't be on sale like currently though obviously.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah bunch of new stuff. Rapid Synth III sounds like ultra garbage but might combo with another to not have 50% chance of success, and the other stuff might be useful. I wonder if Reuse is something like a reset.

    Yeah I know the change I'm just curious how much it'll affect crafting in practice without using HQ mats, we'll see I guess.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    You should clear more than that tbh but eh up to you. I cleared out my shit a long time ago, I generally throw away all the past expansion stuff a few weeks after new expansion launch and I can confirm what's still needed and what's useless. Worst case scenario, I have to buy the mats again that...

    They showed off the furnishing preview in the last live letter, it looked nice and exactly what I'd want if I had a house to decorate. With demolishions though I'm never buying a house again so until they release bigger appartments, it doesn't really concern me too much. No real surprises in...

    Finished preparations for the most part. Did my 2 roulettes+2dungeons+4commends for the challenge log, capped genesis in Eureka, just need to get 200gatherer red scrips tomorrow and kill some centurio mobs so there's only 1 mob left for each page. Almost fucked up the melding challenge log cause...

    RAF recruiter? Yeah maybe. I got a mount like last week from someone resubbing and it being 90days apparently, maybe you. Mentors are ingame shit that you can apply for when you do a bunch of garbage requirements and you get a crown next to your name and access to novice network. A lot of...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah people clear ultimates with pads, it's not a big issue. You do need to organize your shit properly obviously but past that it's more than fine, the GCD is slower on purpose for this kind of stuff, and short of targetting, it's not a big deal, and you still have healers playing with pads in...

    Rested isn't used in HoH/PotD, it's only used on kill xp which you don't get any of in these. You'll be at full rested starting 70 if you only do HoH(minus whatever you use to get to 61 unless you do potd, I'm doing a leveling roulette personnally). It's also not used doing primals, but maybe...

    Thing is it gets worse depending on the roles and who's the newbs. Like, if your tanks(or at least one of the tank on some of the fights) and healers are mentors, and they've done the fight before, then you can generally clear pretty easily most of the fights other than the ones with mechanics...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah DF means you get mentor roulettes people, since that's the only roulette that gets these. So it's that and a bunch of newbs, some of which are wholly unprepared for EX content. Older EX aren't so bad though and can generally be carried, especially the early ones(like ifrit/titan) but some...

    People rarely use macros for combat job stuff, because macros are shit in this game, largely because they can't be queued and also are wonky at times. Only macros most people use are on oGCDs that require special targetting(ground targetted stuff or buff you throw on people). Like for DRG you'd...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Oh fuck Diablo 4 is Hellgate 2? Fuck this dumb ass shit if it's true. Also that story pitch looks like the worst shit every written. Whole point of Diablo is you kill a bunch of demons. What you gonna kill if you fight Angels, just well, Angels? Do they have any other monsters? Or do the Angels...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I made macros for DNC so I can press 3 buttons and put all the skills on my bar and save the 20seconds so I can start leveling faster. It was entirely pointless, but I had nothing else to do. Right now the only things left for me to do is to prepare the challenge log tomorrow then run Pyros for...

    Yeah I thought I remembered prelim on tuesday too until I checked it. We'll see maybe they have them ready and will release them in advance.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Job guide was during the maintenance. That said when I looked into it, prelim patch notes were also during maintenance. Soon after maintenance started, they releases prelim patch notes then several hours later(the day after in japan I think), they released final patch notes which had Known...

    Grim Dawn

    If you mean Bone Harvest cold, that's irrelevant. You leave bone harvest at one, 1dread, dump into Soul Harvest. The skill is really only used for the buff in pet builds, there's no need to lvl it further. One other good skill if you have more keybinds to waste is Ravenous Earth with the 2nd...
  39. Pyros

    Grim Dawn

    Yeah you have some damage, but 4% attackspeed versus 50%pet, and 39%crit dmg versus 92%, so they do a lot less damage. If you get Grim Internals you can probably summon both and hit a dummy for a bit and see how much they do versus some other pets. Thing about Soul Harvest is it buff every...

    Grim Dawn

    You'd probably get a shitton of damage from dropping Guardian to 1(since they don't do a lot of damage, they're player scaled pets so don't benefit from most of your stuff and they can't be killed so don't need hp) and dumping that into Soul Harvest, with obviously 1pt Bone Harvest(maybe 1pt...
