    One day FF logs will have a way to separate external buffs. Until that time anything on that list is always suspect. People always end up using the single target buffs from other classes on what ever the meta tells them is awesome.

    The AST changes are fine. The card you were always fishing for was the dps gain anyways. The little minigame of trying to find the right suits for your aoe dps increase is cool. I've found the actual healing from AST to be lacking. I just got the 76 skill so maybe that changes it but so far...

    If you buy the skip you don't actually gain anything because you will grind at least a little bit. The MSQ from the last expansion usually gives as much or more per hour then grinding. If you wanna throw money out the window go for it but the story skip is never worth it.

    What is the best thing to spend poetics on? I think I flushed out the 70 gear I needed for alt classes, what's selling well on the market board?

    Duncan from the Games Workshop team does great videos. They obviously try to make it model specific but he goes over lots of techniques each video. The YouTube channel is WarhammerTV I think.

    I can't tell if your spoiler is because you think it's funny or if it's because you don't get it.

    I think most of the gating is to keep people playing 1 or 2 hours daily. That's their goal. Get you to log in every day. That's the crack they are selling. Though most of the things you have on the list aren't even remotely required and go away for alts in a month or two. Islands are...

    Hey, when I said having a PvP essence that worked in pve was stupid as fuck, people here told me I was wrong. Seems stupid as fuck to me though. The whole essence system seems dumb to me.

    Hit 80 and opened up the expert dungeon near the Dossal Gate. Ported to the last zone and there is no plus quest. Where do you unlock the second dungeon?

    My guess is anyone who cares about the game was playing over the weekend. Early Access doesn't mean anything in MMOs. It's a marketing tactic.

    Scholar main story quest is easy. I can't imagine summoner is hard though. It takes me like 30 seconds to solo a quest mob with my chocobo out. It's literally spam broil because it's your only button. Honestly though I was level 79 before I got the challenge log for killing 100 mobs with...

    If it has a plus it unlocks something. Could be something you don't need right now like Stormblood beast tribes or it could be abilities for your character. I would look up anything under 70 as they might just be a waste if time to do right now.

    After yesterday I am 100% convinced that the queues are made up. 7pm eastern on a Saturday I got DCd from a crash, log in queue 15 people. Wake up Sunday morning at 6am. Log in queue 9 people. There is no way that the congestion at these times were the same.

    Main story roulette is like half a level. Alliance raid roulette is also huge. I have been doing all my roulettes and picked up the 78 quest just now. Only had to do one extra dungeon at like 76 I think. The quest at the North end of the kelethin zone was amazing. Best mmo quest I have...

    Did you do chocolate bunny? If not you are wrong. Hit 73 last night. Playing Scholar so everything was instant. First dungeon I had to Rez 5 times on the first boss. Tank was getting hit like a truck for most of the dungeon so I healed a lot more then previously. I basically got to dps if...

    Last expansion I had that day off and was still on Excaliber. My queue was like 10 minutes. Honestly my guess is the FF14 queues are all made up to spread people out and make it look like it's more popular then it is.

    An unreleased game having a high score on BGG is akin to a post in the FSR thread getting likes for posting naked girls. It may look hot in the outside but it probably has crabs.

    With 390 stuff moving to poetics a couple of roulettes will get you the ilvl. They also add charity ilvl pieces to old MSQs to catch you up. I don't really get skipping the MSQ. It's the best or second best way to level. PotD and HoH might be slightly faster but are boring as shit.

    Feel free to neg me anyways. It's fine ;) In the break I have been reading the Shayne Silvers book series and he writes consistently 4 books a year and they are decent. Also been reading the Kate Daniels series by Ilona Andrews. It's pretty good Urban fantasy and the series is finished...

    Oh I get you. For me I need to like the minis or I get less motivated to play or paint. I like the judgement stuff so it's where I am leaning. I still do 40k monthly with my buddies who I played with back in the early 90s as our 'old dad game day' but Warmadudes died here. If you know...

    I've been saying for a while that I don't get the people praising 8.2 as the Holy Grail. The game is just the same as it was before the patch. Flying and smoke screening the way AP works isn't going to make the game different. If you enjoyed it before 8.2 you probably will now. If you didn't...

    Last expansion saved gathering leves gave like 2k exp each. So basically nothing.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I didn't realize the exp at the end of HoH didn't give a rested bonus. In that case I will probably level guys to 70 or at least 61 for the rest of the week. Going to just save all my tomes I have now and buy level 70 sets for each class so no reason to do much for the next bit.

    Ravana might be the easiest EX ever. Tied with Garuda maybe? Titan EX has a lot of personal responsibility. Ifrit is just a standard tank swap, dps check and the healers running out with the debuff. I haven't done the current round of EXs. Might bang on them tonight or tomorrow just for...

    Judgement is no more expensive then any other game. A tournament force for judgement is like 350 bucks which is about average for a minis game. The minis are pretty sweet in person. They are about the same size as a heavy warjack. I have heard great things about Aristea but never played it...
