    Nothing wrong with this at all btw. It is kind of a balance, it really is useful to eventually push through to the end of ARR but there's definitely a lot to do and see out there.

    The biggest thing about home ice is the home team gets to make the final change on face offs (save for the times when their team isn't allowed to make a change like on an icing). In a way, it's actually a measurable "home field advantage" that doesn't exist in other sports...assuming your coach...

    Come Endwalker release, tank queues will be lightning fast with new dps and new healer classes coming. Healers reaped the benefits of this for Shadowbringers when Gunbreaker (Tank) and Dancer (DPS) were the new classes. This late in the expansion it varies between the two for stuff.

    Also becomes invaluable later on b/c of being able to insta cast rezz so often after the casting of another spell. Pretty much all I played in Eureka or the current relic area of Bozja.

    Well, a lot of that stuff that was discussed pretty much got confirmed. Kinda sad there are only 4 episodes left. Curious where this goes. Hiddleston is still fantastic.

    Kriptini might be the first person I've heard call the later high points as weak to mediocre, that's for sure. I don't need to re-echo anyone else, ARR can be a slog, that's a fact. It does have lore/world building in there though that gets paid off later on. And as someone else mentioned, at...

    It didn't start with Bellular, there's been plenty of long time smaller steamers who have swapped in the months before Bellular started talking about/playing FF. He might just be a bigger name that moves the needle for a lot more people causing even more people to swap or at least try out the...

    Feel like Blizzard will try to target 9.1.5 for that. No chance they get out 9.2 that quickly at this rate, at least not in any shape it really needs to be to help wrap up the expansion since it sounds like they might not ever even have a 9.3 at this rate.

    And how much they were table to take advantage of teams with the first expansion draft rules. Be curious to see how Seattle ends up doing, as GM's have had more time to prepare for that upcoming expansion draft.

    Actually forgot how much content there really is out there that I've just done over the years. Also makes you remember how much of ARR there is to get through still even with the pruning. Everyone is going to enjoy things a lot more once they get through that to Heavensward.
  14. Merrith

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    This. It's important to do the Heavensward class quests, as they will give new skills/traits. They changed this in Stormblood where only the level 70 finale class quest unlocks your 70 ability, the rest you all just gain naturally leveling. Shadowbringers doesn't have individual class quests...

    Other mentioned good options as well, but you could even just buy gear to turn into GC seals which you can turn into ventures, even.
  16. Merrith

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    This. Coupled with old hunts to get seals for ventures, they just print money while being able to stockpile almost any crafting need.
  17. Merrith

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    It works for level 50, 60, and 70 sets. Basically once the next expansion starts, the highest old tomestone gear becomes available for poetics. A nice catch up mechanic.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Yeah end of ARR is weird in that those "end game" raids were originally around ilevel 50 or so, and by the time ARR was finishing you had ilevel all the way up to 130, which is what I believe it syncs you down to. So even though you're syncing to 50, the overgearing even synced is massive.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    As long as you're in a good/active hunt linkshell in game, you don't even really need to be a part of any discord channels or whatever. Just need active relinkers of spawns.
  20. Merrith

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    This is decent system until you get up near cap. Once at cap if you dabble in the hunting communities at all, old A and S ranks can provide enough alliance and centuro seals to fund ventures.

    This. Nothing faster the first time through. The Ishgard stuff might be just as easy, was already all 80's on all crafting/gathering by that point.

    Everyone's depth is going to be hurting if some of their top D men get hurt, though. Agree about Hall in that series, though, he looked rough. Happens sometimes, but the question for him will be was his little rebirth with the Bruins another flash in the pan, or who he can be going forward...

    I don't think their window is closed. Marchand and Bergeron have aged very well, and Krecji is still a decent 2C. Their issue is not enough experience on the blueline (plus some injuries there during these playoffs). They can move on from Rask and go young in net, maybe find a way to sign...

    At least you guys didn't have it as bad as it seems like the Chargers have had with kicking over the years. That just feels like an actual level of hell.

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    I mean, they weren't going to win the Super Bowl with Winston or anything, but if they have even decent kicking that team still wins 9 or 10 games in 2019.

    I actually unlocked Blue Mage and completed all of it's story quests/leveled to the max of 70 while getting every spell in the game for it in about 2.5 weeks. Once you sorta get the hang of it, lot of fun. Not sure about other datacenters, but lots of PF groups up for Blue mage content like...

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    A lot of those surprisingly close losses were more on the field goal kicker in my opinion. Danny Dimes first career "W", when Winston hit Evans deep to set up a chip shot winner...missed. Some OT loss later in the season where kicker went 0 for 3 in regulation on FG's. Obviously Brady and...

    2021 NFL Offseason: QB Carousel Imminent -- Retirement Boogaloo

    I think if some of their drafting works out this year and the FA signings they made, that D might be back up to top 5 in the league level. I don't think it was just the offense holding the Bucs back in 2019. Winston had some effect, but 29th in points against and 30th in passing yards against...

    Hilarious how both Watson and Rodgers probably want to go to Denver. Frankly I think that team is pretty stacked outside of a QB.

    I'm in. Although they could go in any number of directions obviously so who the fuck knows, but promising first episode. Owen Wilson is great casting.

    Still stacked might be overstating it. We lost Justin Williams, Karl Alzner, Kevin Shattenkirk, and Winnik all to free agency, were basically forced to trade Marcus Johansson for cap relief, and lost Nate Schmidt to Vegas in the expansion draft. The whole "2 year window" in which we won the...

    With all the server resets and such, they definitely would spawn a little more often at times. I remember someone kept track of kills on our server and our guild supposedly had something like 306 of the first 312 green dragons killed. Many guilds attempted to grief us constantly on them, but...

    I assume you at least farmed Maraudon for blue NR gear. The Green Dragon world spawns weren't THAT inaccessible either, most guilds farmed them for nature resist gear.
