From what I've seen in most situations, pulling doesn't save you that much time is all I was saying. It does save you time and ultimately in the long run you might want to do it if you're chain farming for efficiency, since it's still going to save you something like 10-20secs on a 2-3mins kill...

Shoot flash or sound things at the ground, monsters will come closer, reduces the amount of time it takes to farm. Honestly if you're not speedrunning it doesn't save that much time, and some places/monsters it's not that useful I think.

Dungeons actually get faster when you level up, vanilla dungeons I think are the slowest overall. They won't get crazy faster, but 15mins or so is more typical of a post vanilla dungeon(even in vanilla, once you start hitting the 50 stuff it starts going faster too). Obviously once in a while...

Yeah those tend to be pretty good for AU/NZ play but also in general when playing mmos because you never know when some fuckers will decide to not repair lines or route everyone in the evening through the same shit and basically make it unplayable. I'd say in modern times, having a VPN available...

I guess in a world where your social justice score is the only relevant value, meritocracy would put this score over all other things, because you "earned" your rank/position by being the best most progressive most accepting most allied greatest person/perdaughter in the world. That'd be one way...

Seems they have the Wyvern Ignition quest running later this week(oct 5th), along with all other quests they've done so far.

The sales would probably have been good enough if they had the right amount of people working on each of these games. Which would be less than 10 per project probably, with some overlap between concurent projects for some position. The games really didn't need 50people to work on them for what...

Na horde, I can't really remember threat ever being an issue when I was tanking, until AQ at least. But I think we always had a shaman in tank group though, the guild leader. We had one in every group iirc, and some groups had 2, lots of shamans in our guild.

Thing about threat is it only mattered when people were threat capped which didn't happen all that much until fury actually became good, which as far as I remember was around AQ40 too or maybe some point during BWL once people started getting geared there but at that point everything was on farm...

I remember we respeced our tanks(myself included) in AQ40, but shit was really not that useful in MC or even BWL as far as I could remember. Prot had a lot of garbage talents in vanilla and a lot of shit that didn't work in raids like the stun shit(good for pvp though ironically), until it...

This wasn't just about the frost attacks though, it was also the poison cleansing totem, since he spammed poison aoes constantly and shamans could remove all poisons on their entire party with one totem, versus having to single dispel everything as alliance. The frost stuff was actually kinda...

Not sure what's the official official place, but I think the program will trigger most antiviruses all the time regardless because it's made to scan and edit memory, so it could very well do stuff Viruses do. Pretty sure cheat-engine/cheat-engine is your best bet since it's the open source...

Have to download the CheatEngine which will load that file after that and should be simple enough to use. I've only used it once a long time ago but it wasn't really complicated, even for figuring out how to modify stuff on your own(have to do it like the old action replays on consoles).

Oh I had forgotten about that shit, I remember some retard in my guild grinding this in Hillsbrad and shit to get rogue weapons. I think I made it to 10 or something but past that it was just pure stupidity.

Well the thing is, it's XIV, everything is gated behind the stories anyway. If you don't like HW, you're not gonna like SB either, but you'll have to do all the SB story to get access to most content. I guess you "only" have to finish the 4.0 story to get access to 8man raids but a bunch of the...

I wouldn't skip HW, it's kind of a waste, and you can use the base story to level up at least. Problem if you skip it and then want to do it later, is you'd have to roll a fresh character and go through vanilla MSQ again, which is a pain in the ass especially since you've already done it. Also...

Started playing this, so far loving it, really high quality stuff, good music, solid graphics and art style, fairly average story start but the setting is interesting at least and combat/controls feel nice.

Yeah if you haven't played first one you might as well buy that since it's basically the same game minus a few improvements, one class and a different story(which isn't relevant if you haven't cleared either), for a lot less money.

Yeah I did similar stuff when I leveled all classes to 70, although sometimes you get "fucked" because of an early queue pop, I remember it happened every now and then on those stupid mount quests in Dravanian Highlands, queue pops halfway, then you come out of the dungeon without the quest...

They're tactical RPGs. Turn based, you get a certain amount of action points, do the action on your turn for the units, stuff has various numbers like distance you can shoot, ammo, aoe of abilities etc. Plays more like FF Tactics or Disgaeia or some western ones like X-Com than a traditional...

Yeah tank queues vary from instant to 30secs depending on the content you do, and generally for old content, shit's super easy since a lot of people have ran the content hundred of times. Because of the roulettes and how efficient they are for xp, people are always running old content so it's...

I haven't done them cause I haven't played since they added them besides a couple of days to catchup the story only. But they're part of your squadron, which you unlock as you advance your rank with your GC. I don't think you can advance nearly fast enough to unlock them for leveling purposes...

I know you only need to buy an expansion, but it's still different as I explained. In WoW, you own every expansion with the basegame, like up to Legion currently, and you only buy the last expansion to have everything. But in XIV, you only own vanilla with the base game, up to 2.5. You have to...

Mostly need the MSQ pot really to skip ARR if you've done it already. Leveling is actually pretty fast, don't know the situation on the server you picked or if there's still any left for the US datacenters but they have Preferred servers you can pick(list is on the Lodestone webpage) that give...

They actually moved the servers to west coast too iirc which cause a bunch of people to get worse pings, but yeah australia/NZ always get shitty pings unless the shit is basically there, even SEA servers tend to be kinda bad for AU/NZ. The thing though is with the longer GCD, this game isn't so...

Yeah it's been in my wishlist for a long time since I heard good things about it on early access, just waiting to pick it up. Might grab it later this week or something since it's rather cheap already so no need to wait for a full sale.

Yeah from what I've read on the subject it's an old shitty contract they signed from the days Squaresoft and Enix were separate entities, Enix being the DQ guys, and it's really fucked. They could drop him and get someone else, but then they'd have to give up all the DQ themes and shit because...

Depends on the dungeon and how good/bad your DPS are and such. PotD is usually more consistent, but for levels during which a dungeon unlock so you get chain xp, you can definitely do these instead and get good results especially as a tank. If you're bored of potd you can also just do dungeons...

They generally don't do them right when they do a big new patch. More like 2months into a patch, and when events aren't on or so. There is a welcome back campaign stuff that still runs all the time I believe, but you need someone who has you on their friend list to invite you to that, so it's...

Which is why they made them all available, because before some would never see use due to being super situational and only useful to pick if they could beat the "big 5" for your class, which most classes had. Like for pretty much every class it was 4 set in stone actions and then one swapping...

I only quickly went through the story, don't want to spend too much time doing side shit I'll look back into it near 5.0, but current patch is apparently good from what I'm reading, the primal fight is fun and hard and the last raid wing is also fun and challenging without too much bullshit...

Sure but it's getting worse the more shit they add, so they really should think about it. New player experience is pretty important for mmos and especially during new expansions, that's why wow always gives people free level boosts every expansion so they can just get a char up and running right...

Oh yeah forgot about that too, it sucks dicks until you get the new ressource spenders, which comes way too fucking late for whatever reason. Same with MCH leveling, it's so fucking meh until you get heat management tools and suddenly it's pretty fun, then it ends because you're 70 right after...

Someone posted a few posts above that they're lagging behind, but it's the usual XIV behind, as in they're slightly less optimal. I also remember the world first for ultimate ultima was with a DRK even though at that point everyone was saying they weren't as good, so yeah. That said they changed...

Yeah some classes will feel bad to level due to lack of skills but other than that there aren't really bad classes. And then you have the usual mmo advice, tanks get instant queues, healers get fast queues, DPS get long queues. Long being 15-20mins generally speaking, but if you're leveling...

Yeah didn't expect much from the 2080. It's a large boost over the 1080, but it's also way the fuck more expensive so that's a bit of a shit comparison, and it's actually not any better than the 1080ti which is, the same price or cheaper. So seems all kinds of worthless. The 2080ti is really the...

This looks a lot more interesting than "everything is T2 liquid mercury mirrors" in Battlefield's demo from earlier on. Mostly expect it to run like shit though, so we'll see.

Ele hit still works I guess.

There's 8 characters total, you can only have 4 in combat, but you can swap in combat at any time(although they'll start with their turn spent, so they can't act until the turn after). They come with predetermined "classes", in the form of a skill tree you put points in to get specific skills...

Finished DQ11, 140ish hours, pretty much all done other than stupid ingame achievements. Quite a lot of content in this one, even if you don't do as much side shit as I did. Post game especially was very meaty, it's like 25% of the entire game and felt more like 3rd part than postgame.
