In case ppl don't read the post about these, they drop from the Pale Council. They moved the current drops to the prophecy chains and made 4 new uniques for the Pale Council, 2 of which they revealed. This means that the challenge that has you farm Pale Council might not be as shit as previously...

You can play SSF at first to enjoy the game and what not, and once you're about done and just want to clear up the challenges, you can transfer the char to a normal league and just dump your currency to buy the stuff you need. That said it really depends on people, you can just play mostly SSF...

Pretty sure anything Vaal is going to be heavily nerfed, iirc something about charges being nerfed and also spell echo doesn't work on vaal skills anymore so you basically get a lot less value out of them. Also people still played Vaal spark over that as far as I remember. For the FP elem, sure...

It's fairly straight forward yeah, it's a shame you have to rely on a 3rd party to do all this shit though, especially when said 3rd party has random connectivity issues or GGG patches something that breaks the API, then trading is virtually dead until the problems get resolved.

The Feast is surprisingly nice for leveling. I'm getting under 20secs queues late night, games tend to be fairly short with a few dragging on, and it gives like 300k xp(more when winning, less when losing) at 68 which isn't that much, but pretty decent considering it's also kinda fun. Spamming...

Does it? I mean I'm sure the bots can parse the loot efficiently anyway. Hell they could just have an item filter that only shows currency/unique and just loot these. You could even code that using pixel recognition garbage like it's the 90s again, so I'm not sure it makes botting any easier...

They might still have to do something about it eventually, guess we'll see next expansion. Story skip is nice but means you have to make an alt if you later decide to see the story which is a bit dumb. A lot of people when a new expansion releases just want to play that new content first, and...

When I did my CUL HW quests I ended up with too many of everything since you need like 1 food for the quest but you make them 3 at a time, it costs me like 3k of random mats and I sold the leftovers for like 120k. People are pretty lazy. That said money seems fairly pointless and pretty easy to...

The class quests go pretty fast if you don't mind the money, just buy the items directly or buy the mats on your main and craft everything at once, make a big list and then you just turn in shit. Still takes a while with all the running around on some of these quests though, especially since...

The frenzy change seems fine, they can just change the ascendency instead. Point is to more define charges to specific builds rather than have them work with everything, I guess. Could argue that's bad, but eh. They could also make it affect trap cooldown or whatever. The shock complaint is...

Bards add a lot of stuff, which is why they're still sought after even with their DPS being lower(which is by design). They bring a permanent 2% crit buff to everyone in the group, a 3mins cd 15% Direct hit buff to the party other than themselves and a ~1-2mins cd(depends on mana regen) 3%...

The leveling stuff is pretty easy but there's a few relatively decent fights in them, like the primals and some of the MSQ trials and stuff, but mostly starting 50 or so. Same for dungeons past 50 there's some where you actually have to do things. If you're not retarded it's all pretty easy but...

Day9 played more than a couple of times, he's actually 3k+ MMR now or something from what I've seen when shit pops up on reddit, which is like higher than 80% of the dota2 playerbase I think? He's also been talking about dota2 a lot in the various podcasts he's invited in and stuff and seem to...

Do daily roulettes for tomes, do EX primals for gear/mounts, do raid once a week, do savage raid once a week, do 24man once a week(not yet available, 4.1 for that). Other than that, old content, crafting/gathering, doing side stuff like maps, gold saucer, pvp, alts. That's pretty much it. If you...

Oh it's the 4th, for some reason I read it was the 8th. Probably read the date with NA month/day order and got confused. And after that I saw in their official post they mentionned the league does start on the same day. And builds should wait for the next beta big patch, they said that one's...

Since the release is on a tuesday, I assume they release the patch on tuesday and the league on friday as usual, giving them a few days to fix any massive issues due to launch, maybe. But they haven't said so not sure. Seems like good timing for me, I think I'll be done with FFXIV by the time...

Well with tank/healer you'll have instant queues for everything so that's nice. The game uses a quest leveling system with a main story quest and some/a lot of sidequests. The main story unlocks most features in the game so it's necessary to do it, and contains a bunch of mandatory dungeons to...

Omega 4 savage looks pretty crazy. Spoilers for the fight in case of, and spoilers in general, but that's the "2nd phase" of the fight:

Yeah not much in these books that's worth it, I'll grab them for future proofing since I assume they'll just add recipes to them later, maybe, but not a huge deal. I'm glad I didn't spend too much time trying to be all caught up with crafting and shit cause it would have been fairly pointless. I...

Good thing I didn't waste my blue scrips on buying materias and shit in case of, now I can buy a couple of books with the conversion to red. Not that reds are hard to farm, I leveled CUL almost entirely on turn ins for like 2k per items and it was 35red scrips per, just need to macro for a few...

Leveling roulette gives a ton of xp especially if you're lucky and get a SB dungeon. Other roulette bonus is kind of shit but it's a nice break, I usually do 50/60, if it's a 60dungeon it's ok xp, if it's 50 it's bad but generally fast anyway. I don't do trials cause too many annoying ones but...

Yes, fairly standard, same as how Fringes was locked behind 67 or 68 or whatever it was. I cleared that just now too, hadn't bothered with either EX primals until today, figured I'd give it a try since my FC was doing a clear night so I hoped in some automatchmaking DF shit, was terrible as...

The description of the item says what they're for. Like Cranks say: "Can be traded for special arm gear". Shafts say Body and so on. But yeah they do have a ton of currency and shit systems to trade. I guess they don't want stuff like "glove token" to drop so they give them weird names and lore...

Crafting is its own thing, you don't need any of them, and if you want one of them, you'll want all of them(to like various levels for cross class skills but to cap for materials from various crafts used in other crafts). For raiding you'd want food and potions but the time and money invested to...

Finished all my DoL/DoH today, cooking was pretty quick in the end and botanist/mining are super fast if you actually bother doing only that(collectables rotation), 0leves remaining, just right. All in all it looks like I spent 11m doing it, includes all spending so it wasn't just that, I had...

Maybe just no rested? I did do a bunch of frontlines at 60 too cause the MSQ was broken so maybe that was it I don't know. But it was like 4-5 maybe, although it was pernerf so that's almost a full level. Also my usual daily routine for leveling involves doing leveling+50/60+frontline roulette...

From what I remember reading, Fire II is only worth at 5targets or more, lower than that you're better off using Fire IV single target instead. However, on the 3rd umbral, use Flare then Flare again, this is worth using on 3+, although often if there's only 3 targets and the other DPS is...

Oh btw thanks for that, had completely forgotten this was a thing. I'm not using the scrips for accessories since I'll just craft 70 white HQ stuff soonish anyway, plus at least for my crafters, while I was using old ass 2.0 gear, it was pentamelded so it was close enough to scrip gear anyway so...

Ixion requiring 6kills for the reward, assuming all gold, is pretty retarded. Means it'll be overcamped for a while. Meanwhile foxy lady gives you enough materials to buy everything in a single kill.

Paladin feels great for dungeon tanking, shit like Clemency, Cover and Intervention to save retards. It's just kinda bad whenever you get a low lvl dungeon and all you do is rage of halone combo cause the alternative combos only are available at 54 and 60. Not as bad as before though cause you...

Other than weapons, 10ilvl rarely makes a huge difference either. Well some extreme cases of aoe fuckery that does just the right damage to kill you if you don't have enough hp, so the 10ilvl vit on left side is useful, but you can meld some vit in your accs to compensate nowadays, even without...

The endgame kinda builds up over time, but the first patch of expansions is pretty bare. If you're interested in savage though there's a decent amount I guess. The game thrives on parallel progression with stuff like alts being classes on your main character, crafting being its own sphere of...

Probably, it's the same as HW pretty much, make sure to get all the ones with the compass thing as you level up(some zones are MSQ locked to a higher level, similar to Sea of Clouds in HW), and do the sidequests that reward them, so you unlock flight asap. But it's basically the same as what you...

They have explanations, the characters used are used within the lore of the game, they're simply using char design and playing on nostalgia with musical and graphical themes from some old FF. For example the Warring Triad is perfectly acceptable within the lore of XIV. They're powerful entities...

Red mage is simpler than Samurai I think, at least once you unlock the secondary gauge for samurai and have to manage it with positionals and stuff(62 I think is when you get the good stuff). Red mage pretty much plays like 2.0 BLM in some aspects, mostly you just have to pay attention to procs...

Na they use a lot of the previous FF stuff for new content. For example in HW, the primals were inspired by FF6, The Fiend, the Goddess and the Demon, the Warring Triads. The 24man Crystal Tower is inspired by FF3. The current Omega wing raid is all FFV inspired. The next 24man was titled Return...

The healer told him to change his accessory, which prompted the "but str accs are bis" discussion. Obviously it's faceroll, it was still slower than usual and probably a lot more annoying for the healer to see him spike to 20% hp constantly from every "big" hit cause he had 60% less health than...

Well potd is different, cause tanks are pretty much worthless and healers are only good when shit goes wrong, which is like once every 3 full runs in my experience and if you have a witching pom you can just fix it anyway. But realistically potd can be soloed by a decent DPS with 50/50 and...

The best joke is how the mindset bleeds into other spheres even though it's completely out of place. The other day I had a PLD in Shisui(the 63 dungeon) using STR accs, unmelded and unupgraded(i260) cause he was a shit scrub that read on reddit that str accs were bis or watch xeno's videos or...

Geared or not barely makes a difference on the GCD, you're going to shave maybe .1 sec so you go down to 2.4. The only thing that has a real impact are skills, stuff like the WHM spellspeed buff, or class permanent features for Monk/Ninja/Samurai which lowers their GCD to around 2secs. Monk...
