    I think that guy was in an episode of CSI. Pretty sure he ended up dead. Edit: like seriously, I remember an old old episode that involved a blue furry.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    It's not likely a fair assessment, but I peek once in a while out of morbid curiosity. It seems like a mix of an audience for Teletubbies and Barney, and a few people who are super serious about completely ridiculous things. 95% of the latter go to extremes to reinvent the wheel, with apparently...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    No, it's not wrong. This thread is the best part of the game. If it ever releases as a functional "game" I'm not sure I'd want to play it. Their #communitymatters bs is populated by their community, and they're the biggest collection of rainbow-snorting fuckwads that spew the most painfully...

    I hope AST gets more than that for QoL. Sleeve draw should cause Play to autodraw at least. Would be nice if they did something with MA, but I don't know what they'd do. I've seen suggestions that it could function as Play, but just plays the drawn card as its minor arcana version. That's...

    Late response but that place reminds me of the underwater bit in Bedknobs and Broomsticks. Something something along, at the bottom of the beautiful briiiiny sea... (Cheesy old movie that I swear everyone else dodged in childhood.) It is really out of place for the rest of the game, but meh...

    Fair enough! You can get Vs for cheaper overmelds, too. (Slightly, they're 200 yellows, but you can avoid more expensive overmelds and still be prepped for 2*.) If you just want the whites for tools, a few cycles through a few nodes should probably do it. Aetherial reduction for sands is...

    Cunning Craftsman's Syrup is the one that's basically free materia, especially when starred. The tinctures are good for white scrip because the mats are cheap enough and no sub combines. Edit: Can't remember if you do gatherers too, but either way, the sands drop in clumps instead of little...

    For avoiding leves, you can spam collectable Iota for ALC all the way to 80, though swap for syrup at 77 if you get that. CUL can spam Grilled Rail or Purple Carrot Juice to 80, too. For GSM, there's a ring for level 71--Ilsewolf something or other--that you can crank out a few levels with...

    Kihra's working on adding rDPS in fflogs, but some of the way the game handles a couple things are screwy so it might take a minute.

    Check a vendor named Doddard (9, 14) in the Crystarium. He should have some. (I can't double check because I afked out like an idiot and am now halfway through my 1947 person queue. Grr.)

    Vaguely hate myself, but healed a dungeon. (Need to level one of my retainers, so gonna continue hating myself periodically.) Complete lack of surprise face, there's no "more healing required" as far as I could tell, and that's with fucking up my buttons because muscle memory expects shit that...

    Everquest AMA Answered!

    I was on Discord with a friend trying to teach his friend to play. I missed the initial setup fiasco, but holy shit. It was just hours of raw panic and frustration. The guy made a half elf paladin and it just went downhill from there. Flash of Light in Blackburrow, murdering his friend with...

    I think it's "/returnerstatus off" to get rid of the flower, and "/newplayerstatus off" for the sprout. Returner flower and nn access will go away automatically after 48 hrs played since you got it. I forget what the sprout is, 198 hours springs to mind, and if that expires but you haven't yet...

    I'd say the 24 mans are somewhere between LFR and normal. You can generally complete them with half your team dying to stupid crap (and will usually actually have half your team dying to stupid crap), but they have a little more in the way of mechanics than LFR. Both occasionally have mechanics...

    If Levi people want to collect in sort of one place, you're welcome to join my fc. Caveat: if you're looking for vibrant fc chat from a pile of existing members, you'll be disappointed. It's just me, my alts, and one guy who isn't likely to log in again anytime soon. I'm living in Eureka until I...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Fair enough. I'm chock full of pessimism for now, largely because they seem to carefully and artfully use language to imply things that aren't quite accurate. It reminds me of something (that I'm a bit vague on the details of now) from some eq2 expansion years ago. They were introducing...

    I'm not sure exactly when Joppa took over, but he's been there since at least 2014. Fuzzy troll era ended no later than late 2015, not 2016. They say one Pantheon zone is equivalent to all of the Karanas. Have they shown anything to make that plausible? They used to say this was intended as...

    I will eat my hat if they actually have enough incoming damage to require constant healing in most (really any) content. The only thing they're accomplishing is making the DPS part more dull. Reining in how infuriated I am about changes, but will level a healer anyway. Maybe it won't suck. Maybe...

    It was. As of this maintenance to add the two EU worlds, it was changed to standard. The only two preferred worlds in NA now are in the Crystal DC. Bunch of Primal/Aether are congested now.

    Also on Levi. Have a solo FC but I can share. Also have alts on a couple servers in Aether, and I'm pretty sure I saw a_skeleton_02 shout for Eureka feedback in Hydatos a week ago or so, lol. You never answered your own question!

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Don't you mean years? I think they've already been "hard at work" on it for over a year. I mean, the spinning orc model took eight months at least. August 2018 to April 2019. There's a hell of a lot more to do for that project than models that seem to have wildly surpassed their 1-4 weeks...

    I'm not all the way caught up, either--still have all the patch stuff to do. I was trying to catch up on a new char in Aether, too, but went back to my old main for similar reasons. I'm carefully ignoring the looming patch date in favor of Eureka, though.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Why the hell did they slow down the leveling if they're going to squish levels later? Also, why the hell are they asking your opinion on the squish if it's something they're going to do anyway? "Really, this time we might care what your opinion is!"

    You'll need some of the blue quest unlocks anyway, because some of the 60 dungeons are needed for level 70 hm ones, etc. They're probably not great xp at 64, but there's a first time bonus for everything.

    I'm glad it wasn't a flat "unresolved ethical dilemma," at least. That part is a good bit of what's killing me. Not that I don't appreciate the effort involved, but it seems like that IS the effort involved. More art showcase than game, now. (Still?) And they "fix" the recent backlash with "We...
