[leaden ginkgo]

you don't really need to delete all those characters

[ripe hound]

But yeah, I will probably get more money from maps

[brazen dawn]

I'm not really sure what I want to do with my retainer classes for ventures. Is going double DoW a good idea?

[jade quartz]

If those characters are on the same server then you'll only be able to play as one of them

[leaden ginkgo]

@ripe hound how much gil do you get per map?

[ripe hound]

No idea

[jade quartz]

which will be whichever is at the top of the list.

[faint flare]

You dont need to delete. If they're on seperate servers then you'll be able to use all of them. If same server than what lyon said

[ripe hound]

I know it's basically a loot box time sink

Wait what about the 8 characters in total rule?

[jade quartz]

@brazen dawn double DoW/M is fine, hunting materials are handy. A DoW/M and a MIN or BTN is also good

I'd recommend at least one DoW/M

[faint flare]

Entry allows 8

[jade quartz]

I wouldn't recommend fisher.

[brazen dawn]

ok thanks!

[ripe hound]

Also the mog store retainer boost is about 100% not worth it right?

[cerulean kraken]

Ah ok thanks, I would be paying the sub for my wife and my two kids, so I'm kind of trying to cut the costs a bit. Thanks for the info 😃

[jade quartz]

@ripe hound I'd say it's not

[ripe hound]

Unless you have infinite money in real life or something

[jade quartz]

leveling retainers is easy enough and there's no rush on it

[ripe hound]

What should you do with retainers after they are max level if you just want money?

The 1h random exploration?

[soft sentinel]

Are dungeons common in the msq? I barely got through my first one a few minutes ago. I am a pretty bad tank.

[patent citrus]

yeah quite common

[ripe hound]

Also don't worry you'll get good

[sand stratus]

you'll get a new dungeon every 2 or 3 levels

[patent citrus]

yeh, visit hall of novice

the tank practice there is pretty good for basic

[glad comet]

@soft sentinel if you're struggling with tanking, do hall fo the novice, maybe watch a couple of guides on tanking

[ripe hound]

Early dungeons are just Tank Stance On -> Spam AOE

Late game dungeons are just Tank Stance On -> Spam Mitigation -> Spam AOE

[glad comet]

Hall of the Novice is very basic.

[ripe hound]

https://youtu.be/WY6JU3au4XU
Also this

But don't pull everything in low level dungeons, sometimes healing can be hard if people are under geared

[patent citrus]

not only undergeared lol, you also have fewer skills

[ripe hound]

Yeah

[patent citrus]

i don't think the gear matters at all since it's probably scaled

but the skills o_o

[crimson wind]

How good is LB3 on DRG? do I just sac a Full Thrust for LB3?

[ripe hound]

I mean yeah, I often run into a lv 77 dungeon with a lv 70 weapon

But yeah

[cerulean kraken]

And one more question (sorry for being a bother), were the nier transmog(glamour right?) A limited timed event or is it still achievable?

[faint flare]

Its permanent

[leaden ginkgo]

I bought two of the same Yokai weapon by mistake, is there any use to the second copy?

[ripe hound]

For some reason I reached lv 80 with a lv 70 weapon

No idea how it happened

[faint flare]

Its this expansion 24man

It wont go away

[patent citrus]

yeah understandable

my gnb is lv 80, i'm still post-sb MSQ

just from daily roulette..

[ripe hound]

Yeah, some of us when leveling alts, only use what we got from dungeons

[soft sentinel]

@glad comet It's hilarious to me thatI've clawed my way to level 20 with pure determination and while I'm happy I got through the dungeon I do feel bad that I was kinda crap at my "role". If it wasn't for the mage I'd be dead. I will try to get better as a free trial player

[ripe hound]

Or spend a bit poetic at each of the traditional max levels

So sometimes people can be really undergeard

[faint flare]

@crimson wind LB3 is like 9300 potency...so yes, put up dot then throw it out

[crimson wind]

K

[cerulean kraken]

Thanks a bunch guys! You seem to be alot nicer then my usual wow class discord. Appreciate the help :)

[ripe hound]

Does does LB3 scale with your attack power?

[crimson wind]

Was just wondering how I could use it w/o fucking up my rotation to hard

[ripe hound]

Or does it only scale with the dungeon level or something?

[patent citrus]

lb can't be boosted i think 🤔

[faint flare]

It scales with the average item level of the parties weapobs

It does more damage if everyone has good weapons

[crimson wind]

Also what percentage is tank lb3

[faint flare]

80%

[remote lintel]

85%

oh

[vestal needle]

is there a site where people share their hud layout saves?

[faint flare]

20/40/80

[crimson wind]

Wow

[jade quartz]

we have #protips-and-ui @vestal needle

[vestal needle]

oh thanks

[jade quartz]

for asking for help and inspiration for HUD

[crimson wind]

Can I make gearset macros show job stones?

[remote lintel]

yes

[faint flare]

Yes

[crimson wind]

Nice, how

[random hollow]

conjurer is pre summoner or pre redmage?

[jade quartz]

should be something like /micon item "Soul of the Warrior"

[sand stratus]

/micon "Soul of the Dancer" item

[remote lintel]

@random hollow white mage

[ripe hound]

But in the same dungeon, a NIN's LB3 will always do the same damage as a SAM's LB3 right?

[jade quartz]

oh item afterwards

[remote lintel]

red mage doesnt have a base class

[random hollow]

oh lol

[warped nest]

@ripe hound yes

[ripe hound]

kk thanks!

[random hollow]

smn is in which city?

[warped nest]

Limsa

[remote lintel]

limsa

its arcanist

[random hollow]

k thx

[warped nest]

Arcanist guild

[crimson wind]

SMN will switch to Gridania after 30

At the worst possible spot

Miles from any aetheryte

[ripe hound]

Also in lore, ||Gerolt is an extremely talented weapon smith but is bad at managing money and have a drinking problem|| right?

[random hollow]

mmm i see....I was mostly confused because of the name of conjurer and because it casts some attacking spells

[crimson wind]

#archived-lore-spoilers akira

[remote lintel]

not really the money part

[crimson wind]

But yes

[ripe hound]

kk

[serene bison]

As a Machinist

[sand stratus]

all of the classes do damage

even the healers

[ripe hound]

EVERYONE IS DPS!

[serene bison]

What Materia should I use?

[random hollow]

yay lol

[faint flare]

Crit > dh > det

Like other dps

[ripe hound]

Some DPS can hold aggro, some can heal, but EVERYONE IS DPS!

[serene bison]

So if the gear has 3 slots go that route?

[faint flare]

No

[ripe hound]

DEEEEPS

No

[faint flare]

You meld in priority

If you can meld crit, you meld it

[ripe hound]

First you try to max Crit, if Crit overflow, meld Direct Hit

[serene bison]

confused outta country sounds

[faint flare]

If you cant, meld DH

[remote lintel]

melding below 80 is almost useless anyway

[serene bison]

Oh ok

[faint flare]

If you cant meld crit or DH, meld det

Its a priority list

[serene bison]

Well I'm 70 atm so

[remote lintel]

dont worry about it

[ripe hound]

Also as a GNB it's still meld damage right?

[serene bison]

just setting myself up for the long road

[faint flare]

Yes

[crimson wind]

Don't meld until you get 490 gear at level 80

[faint flare]

Everyone melds damage

[ripe hound]

So meld Crit on Crownsblade?

Since it only have Det and Tenacity

[remote lintel]

depends on the gnb priority

[faint flare]

Pretty much

[remote lintel]

idk if gnb melds sks

[ripe hound]

Also should I meld Tenacity?

[faint flare]

Gnb doesnt mind what sks

No

[remote lintel]

you cant

[ripe hound]

Hun?

[faint flare]

Tenacity is useless until it isn't

[serene bison]

Oh when buying stuff off the Board

how do I like seperate

[faint flare]

Which basically rarely ever happens

[serene bison]

if I don't wanna buy a whole stack

[faint flare]

You dont

[remote lintel]

you have to buy the whole stack

[faint flare]

You buy the stack or dont

[serene bison]

Ah ok

excuse me as I cry

[remote lintel]

just world hop

[faint flare]

Or resell the excess

[ripe hound]

If I don't know what I'm doing and I just want some melds on my Lv 80 weapon, then it's usually just Crit -> DH -> Det right?

[faint flare]

If you dont need more speed

[remote lintel]

you should look up your melds

theres no reason not to

[warped nest]

!faq balance

[zinc orbit]

The Balance

Discord

[ripe hound]

But I didn't even have end game gear yet

It's just alt jobs

With like 430 free gear

[warped nest]

Then don't worry about meld

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I just don't want to be in a Puppet Bunker or something, and other people looking at me be like: "Dafuq is this idiot without any melds doing?"

[serene bison]

thanks guys for help

[jade quartz]

Puppet's Bunker is casual content

no one's even going to look at your gear

you're one in the crowd of 24

[warped nest]

People will look

If you die to mechanics

Left and right

[glad comet]

thats true...

[jade quartz]

well don't do that then

[warped nest]

And have suspiciously low max HP

[ripe hound]

​_(:з」∠)_

[glad comet]

just dont die to mechanics

[ripe hound]

Is 111k HP as GNB suspiciously low?

[glad comet]

yes

[remote lintel]

a little bit

[glad comet]

usually 141k

to 176k

[ripe hound]

Looks at Aetheryte Earring

Nah haters gonna hate

[glad comet]

Full BiS is 176 to 178k

[obsidian patio]

[ripe hound]

I think I was just unlucky so I wasn't able to replace it with dungeon loot

[warped nest]

They are on i430-440 gear btw

I think

[glad comet]

also min ilvl for PB is 465

[remote lintel]

you can definitely replace your gear with eden gate/deepshadow

/eden verse

[ripe hound]

Yeah I should try farm some Eden

I'm gonna start it after completing my Job quest

Also it's somewhat disrespectful entering eden with a Aetheryte Earring or something right?

[obsidian patio]

Yes

[warped nest]

Ummm...

[granite swan]

I find Eden stuff to be a big pita to get compared to nier tho, everyone just needs on the items >.> compared to nier where most ppl just let em rot lol

[obsidian patio]

A NQ earring would be better

[ripe hound]

Yeah

[granite swan]

doesnt Aetheryte stop at 70?

[ripe hound]

Exactly

[warped nest]

Yeah

[obsidian patio]

Stops at i290

[ripe hound]

I'll go get some hunt stuff, hunt gives 440

[limpid lynx]

so, there's no way to restart main scenario quests right?

[remote lintel]

new game+

[ripe hound]

There is New Game +

[limpid lynx]

I'm at the one where I'm trying to get more meat than Hien, and I messed up my first lure

I wanna see what he says if I actually beat him

oh cool new game+ will work for that? awesome

[remote lintel]

dont think it works for you right now

[ripe hound]

Yeah but you need to complete the game first I think

[remote lintel]

you need to beat chapters

[limpid lynx]

ah, dang

I tried to look it up on youtube and the best I could get is someone that tied

[remote lintel]

he just says good job or whatever

[soft sentinel]

Is the Party Finder just a better version of the Duty Finder?

[ripe hound]

No

[serene bison]

how do I remove a matieria?

[plain python]

does lizardmen people only have rank up to Trusted?

[proud willow]

Party Finder allows you to meet other people who want to do something together

so that you can make a group and then enter Duty Finder together

[ripe hound]

Duty Finder is automatic, Party Finder is Skip Soar or Disband

[warped nest]

@serene bison ummm, right click gear?

[soft sentinel]

Ah. Thank you

[jade quartz]

@plain python Amal'jaa? Yep, they cap at Trusted

[warped nest]

Or talk to a melder NPC

[ripe hound]

But yeah, Party Finder is where you make a post and find like minded people

And go do something together

[jade quartz]

and then once you have all the ARR beast tribes at max rank and do the Allied Beast Tribe questline they all jump up to "rank 9: Allied"

[plain python]

no wonder ixali have an extra quest. They cap at Sworn, which is like 3 ranks further

[ripe hound]

Was Raid Finder ever active on NA?

Like I kind of feel that if Raid Finder is active, it would be less toxic than PF

[soft sentinel]

I imagine party finder will be useless to me until I buy the game since I can't join a FC or join a party yet but i figure I should keep it in mind

[granite swan]

Party Finder is usable im pretty sure on free trial

[remote lintel]

raid finder is just duty finder

[ripe hound]

Is Party Finder usable on Free Trail?

[remote lintel]

you can join them iirc

[ripe hound]

kk

Also can you get GNB Thancrad's outfit?

Probably Mog station later?

[remote lintel]

its the lvl 80 gnb gear

[ripe hound]

Hun?

Oh nice

[glad comet]

Not dyeable

@ripe hound

[ripe hound]

Sad

[glad comet]

You can only get the dyeable one

by clearing an Ex

[ripe hound]

Hun?

Which one?

[ripe hound]

Basically memoria misera gives you the dyable versions of AF gear?

[glad comet]

yes

[remote lintel]

yes

[ripe hound]

kk

[vocal shell]

Af4

[ripe hound]

I should try farm it

[vocal shell]

specifically

[ripe hound]

Will I die?

[remote lintel]

yes

[ripe hound]

Nice

Dying is healthy, it improves metabolism, i guess

[plain python]

enemies in dungeon won't drop materials?

[leaden ginkgo]

guys if a server is congested, does that mean if I try again later it may not be?

[faint flare]

No

If its congested with a capital C, its locked until SE removes it manually

Typically on patches

[shut kelp]

so my friend went into POTD as a level 1 lancer and only came out at level 3? we were also doing the 51 to 60

why is this?

[crimson wind]

So if it's Congested instead of congested it'll be locked?

[faint flare]

Because potd xp scales to your outside level

!faq serverlock

[leaden ginkgo]

ah god

[zinc orbit]

Why can't I enter this server?

Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.

[leaden ginkgo]

thats a rip

[shut kelp]

i dont get it

[granite swan]

its not worth doin potd till 12-15

[crimson wind]

I was making a joke Vinyl

[faint flare]

They're lv1 so they dont get much. They get enough to get to lv3

[shut kelp]

should he just get to level 12? then do POTD?

[crimson wind]

What's the newest server actually? I thought all of them have been out since 2.0

[granite swan]

Yeah, just do hunt log till like 12 then potd, thats my suggestion anyway

[faint flare]

Hunting logs are dar quicker levelling up than potd until lv15

As those are very quick for good xp

Vs however long potd takes

[shut kelp]

i see

[ripe hound]

Does every tank have an AOE combo?

[rugged flicker]

Okay, I'm very confused as to what the fuck I'm supposed to do for this quest:
https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Work_It_Harder,_Make_It_Better

[leaden ginkgo]

yes akira

they need to do hold aggro in dungeons

[patent citrus]

should be 🤔

[rugged flicker]

I made one of the oddly specific items, now it's saying to upgrade my tool?

How the fuck do I do that?

[ripe hound]

Yeah I still remember being super grateful when PLD got the single AOE attack in 4.0

And now PLD have a AOE COMBO ATTACK!?

AND ANOTHER AOE SPELL!?

[rugged flicker]

Does anyone know? Because I'm fucking lost here.

Oh, I'm supposed to make 20 of those items? Don't recall seeing that mentioned anywhere x.x

[stable herald]

dont suppose anyone has the NIN opener for level 80? I know someone posted it here before, but i lost the image, unfortunately

Bunshin is NOT like DRK's summon, right?

[warped nest]

No

!action Bunshin

[zinc orbit]

**Bunshin** : lvl 80 NIN (50 Ninki Gauge) (90.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

[stable herald]

As in, this shadow isn't an actual thing?

[granite swan]

i think u can goto kupo bot spam and do like faq ninopener or something?

[stable herald]

Ah. ninopener. gotcha. Thanks

[granite swan]

i forget the exact command

[stable herald]

i know about NINguide

but that's under construction/update

[brittle comet]

dumb question: when you move up from the trial, do you pay the subscription and the upfront cost of whatever edition? or just the subscription?

[ripe hound]

Yes

[warped nest]

Both

[ripe hound]

You pay for everything

[warped nest]

Upfront to get license to start

[brittle comet]

ah, ty

[warped nest]

Then subscription to keep playing

Take note that Starter Edition (compulsory) includes 30 day sub

[shut kelp]

my other friend is level 30, and we did 50 to 60, an he almost got 1 level

[warped nest]

Shadowbringers (expansion) doesn't

[stable herald]

Can I use the kupobot command here to bring up the image?

[ripe hound]

The game is somewhat more expensive than you regular Triple A game, but it's worth it, and there isn't any pay to win stuff in here

[stable herald]

I got some Qs

[warped nest]

@stable herald if you are asking or answering question with that, yes

[stable herald]

Thanks

!faq ninopener

[zinc orbit]

Whats the ninja opener?

[stable herald]

What is that kassatsu for

[warped nest]

!action Kassatsu

[zinc orbit]

**Kassatsu** : lvl 50 NIN (60.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Allows the execution of a single ninjutsu without consumption of mudra charges.
Additional Effect: Increases damage for the next ninjutsu action by 30%
Duration: 15s
Recast timer of mudra is not affected by the execution of this action.

Powered by XIVAPI

[warped nest]

Kassatsu buff your Ninjutsu potency

[stable herald]

JUST after that suiton

[warped nest]

And at high level, Kassatsu will upgrade two of your Ninjutsu

[brittle comet]

is there an edition with shadowbringers that includes the sub

[warped nest]

@brittle comet complete edition

[stable herald]

Yes, but what do they use that kassatsu on?

[warped nest]

Complete edition is Starter Edition + Shadowbringers

[brittle comet]

okay, thanks again

[ripe hound]

I think for the next Ten Chi Jin?

[warped nest]

@stable herald see the ice shuriken?

Line 2

[ripe hound]

Because they don't have time to use Kassatsu later

[stable herald]

if im looking at this right, they do the Suiton then kassatsu

[warped nest]

6th skill from the right in Line 2

[ripe hound]

Yeah look down like 10 more actions

[warped nest]

That's from the Kassatsu from line 1

[stable herald]

Oh, they don't use it immediately?!

Oh

[warped nest]

Kassatsu buff last a while

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I think it's because they want to use buffs later

[warped nest]

15s to be exact

[ripe hound]

The buffs that gives damage buffs

[warped nest]

Spending the Kassatsu buff right away, or right before it expires is the same in potency

Btw, this is also why the ninja suiton waaayyy before they need to Trick Attack

[stable herald]

yeah.. i just thought they'd use it immediately

i've been reading wrong openers lol

[ripe hound]

Also I don't NIN, which one is Trick?

!action trick attack

[zinc orbit]

**Trick Attack** : lvl 18 ROG NIN (60.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 350.
500 when executed from a target's rear.
Additional Effect: Increases target's damage taken by 5%

[ripe hound]

Got it

[warped nest]

Suiton enables the use of Trick Attack

And suiton buff last a long tine

[ripe hound]

kk

[tidal osprey]

how does living shadow work?

[stable herald]

I thought it was TCJ -> Meisui -> Suiton -> TA combo, then basically usual rotation

[warped nest]

Nope

[stable herald]

where on earth did i read that then...

[warped nest]

@tidal osprey think of it as a damage over time

With very very fancy animations

[tidal osprey]

oh so it doesnt copy your move or anything

[stable herald]

nope

it does its own thing

[warped nest]

If you use Living shadows when you pull adds in dungeons, the shadow fella will auto select new target if it's current target is dead

[ripe hound]

But Living shadow is just a fabulous as fuck dot right?

[warped nest]

That's what I said

[ripe hound]

Nice

[warped nest]

That will select new target if their current target dies

Going back to suiton timing

The technique is

Cast Suiton early to get suiton buff and get your Ninjutsu on cooldown

So when you trick Attack much later

You have more Ninjutsu to cast inside the TA window

[stable herald]

i see

why the dots before the assassinate prep

oh wait. Dots is GCD right

[warped nest]

Yes

That's a weaponskill

[stable herald]

and Dream within dream (?) is oGCD

[warped nest]

Yes

[stable herald]

ok. i gotta go smack a dummy for a while

Thanks

hmm.. any recommendations for gearing up>

[warped nest]

Have fun with your practice session

[stable herald]

heh. i'll try

Neoishgard?

or Eden?

im assuming relic for weap

[warped nest]

I personally would grind eden

Not worth spending gils on neo imo

[stable herald]

im not expecting to do savage etc

Just like PB etc

[leaden ginkgo]

hey should I expect gear to be trash until about 60? like aesthetics wise?

[warped nest]

Getting gear from Eden normal, Nier, and tomestone are fine

[ripe hound]

You can glamour anytime you want

[warped nest]

@leaden ginkgo they should improve once you hit Heavensward contents

[leaden ginkgo]

what level is that around?

[stable herald]

Was just debating if crafting is worth the effort

[patent citrus]

I think the ironworks isn't that bad 🤔

[leaden ginkgo]

I just want the cool paladin holy warriorlook lol

[warped nest]

Lvl 50/51

[patent citrus]

but it's just subective and I don't know your taste

[stable herald]

but i don't know if unmelded HQ facet gear can do ishgard HQ

I mean, i struggle with the relic as is..

[warped nest]

@stable herald you definitely need to meld to hit the requirement, even then will be a bit difficult if you are hitting the bare minimum

[stable herald]

is the relic for crafters still THE thing to go for?

Ah. Damn

[warped nest]

Dragonsung is fine

Aetheste is better

[stable herald]

then why even go for the dragonsung gear?

is it relic ala DoW stuff?

[warped nest]

Dragonsung is the equivalent of casual gear, if you will

[stable herald]

Like, each patch comes with new upgrades?

oh

[primal relic]

Questions, does DRK have a secret debuff or something depending on my darkside bar? Cuz I feel like my healers are struggling to heal me. Sometimes it would take half a bar of mp or rarely an entire bar.

[stable herald]

Ark, what level?

are you using CDs?

[warped nest]

Don't forget about your Arms Length

[primal relic]

For lower lvls dungen like 32-41 currently

[stable herald]

And you gotta keep your gear up to date

[warped nest]

For low level, you just don't have a lot of tools

[stable herald]

^

[primal relic]

I would pull two group and pop that wall buff+fire debuff for add

[warped nest]

So the best you can do is, what aoi said

[stable herald]

?? fire debuff?

[warped nest]

Maintain gear to the best of your ability

[primal relic]

My gear ilvl 40

Reprasal+rapamart

[warped nest]

In most of the time

It is better for you to use one defensive cooldown at a time

You rarely need to stack two

[stable herald]

Oh. Reprisal... not THAT useful for packs

[primal relic]

If that runs out or if situation needs be I would use arm length or shadow wall

[normal breach]

when crafting is there a way to stop the macro midway? im noticing my macro crap out when i lag a bit causing an action to fail and ruining the entire craft

[warped nest]

!faq Reprisal

[zinc orbit]

Error!

No tag named reprisal exists, Kupo!

[warped nest]

Crap

!action Reprisal

[zinc orbit]

**Reprisal** : lvl 22 GLA MRD PLD WAR DRK GNB (60.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Reduces damage dealt by nearby enemies by 10%.

Powered by XIVAPI

[warped nest]

Aoi, reprisal now works as an AOE debuff

It is not a single target debuff anymore

[stable herald]

OH

Wow

[warped nest]

Yup

[stable herald]

i've not been paying attention

when did that change

[warped nest]

@normal breach make a simple message macro

/echo Stopping my macro

[primal relic]

But yeah I would combo it, and if I fall a certain threshold I would pop either arms length or shadow wall

[normal breach]

so doing a 2nd macro will stop the 2nd macro?

[stable herald]

Ark, what level are you?

what gear are you using

[warped nest]

Running a new macro will stop the current macro, yes

[normal breach]

also how do i change the way my macro looks

i only see this avaialble

[vocal shell]

./micon

[primal relic]

Lv44 now , current ilvl 40

[normal breach]

is there a way to change the colors? i see on youtube vids ppl have different icons/colors

[warped nest]

Right click the macro icon on the macro edit section

[stable herald]

hmm.. give me a second Ark

[warped nest]

Aside from that, you also can use /micon to pick and choose specific icon

[normal breach]

i only have execute copy cut delete available when right clicking

[warped nest]

Right side

[stable herald]

Ark, are you using general disciple of war gear

[warped nest]

Either right click or left click the macro icon next to your macro title

[stable herald]

or gear specific to tanks

[primal relic]

No the plate one

[normal breach]

oh i see it

ty

[stable herald]

you've upgraded your weap as well?

[primal relic]

Yep

[warped nest]

You can use micon to pick specific icon, for example, /micon "Iron Will"

[primal relic]

But I don’t think that would matter since it scales down to lower lvl right?

[warped nest]

This will make your macro uses the Iron Will skill icon from Paladin

[stable herald]

having better gear is still a benefit

you're 43 yes?

[primal relic]

But wouldn’t my ilvl gear scale down to my content I’m doing?

And stat reduce

[warped nest]

Only if you massively out gear it

[primal relic]

I was doing Bayfolt and Qarm

[normal breach]

i know that theres no exact way to make money because it all varies by worlds and servers - but is there a generic way that normally always works? Like gathering lvl 80 nodes or crafting 3 star recipes, etc?

trying to sink like 5M on gear and trying to figure out the fastest way to make it lol

[granite swan]

Just ... craft it yourself then? Lol

[stable herald]

hmm... Ark, if you're level 43, you should be doing... Stone Vigil, i believe

[primal relic]

And the sync was 37, so I should’ve alright

[proud willow]

there's really no generic way to earn 5M in a hurry, it's going to be dependent on your server

[normal breach]

i dont have crafting levels high enough to self craft, only my culinarian is lvl 80

[stable herald]

But in regards to healers struggling in lower levels, it's kinda expected since everyone, like Lchronos said, does not have their full skill set

to mitigate incoming damage

[dark rain]

is someone willing to help me understand the phase one portal mechanics in E7S?

I don't understand when the portal swaps between red shots and blue shots

after the initial shot I mean

[primal relic]

Hmmm though I do feel like it’s my fault considering some of them feel the need to trash talk me after.

[stable herald]

Did they say anything useful?

If not..

Ignore ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[warped nest]

@dark rain the portals are paired

[ripe hound]

Are there any human sized boss in the game?

[patent citrus]

many o_o

[stable herald]

for raids? No. Dungeons? yes

[ripe hound]

I mean for Savage and EX content, there are really rarely human sized bosses right?

[warped nest]

Yes, for visual clarify sake

[stable herald]

Oh. i don't think so? having 8 people trying to target a single tiny dude is a bit hard

[warped nest]

They don't do hyur size bosses

[normal breach]

is there a way to add another hotbar for macros? like a smaller one somewhere

[ripe hound]

Mostly because when the enemy is human sized, the group needs to be so clustered up it makes stuff troublesome

[dark rain]

The portals being paired doesn't quite help me understand

[primal relic]

Well I was doing big pulls and we wiped, so I thought hey maybe this guy new to healing. So I slowed down and did one group at a time. So near the end healer said “you should pull more so we can die.” So idk

[dark rain]

so I obviously understand that you look at which of the portals facing the boss gets hit first, and that determines which portal on the east side shoots next

[ripe hound]

Yeah that's weird

I don't really know what kind of comment is that

[dark rain]

what I don't understand is how to tell which portal will shoot after the portals reset

[primal relic]

And he had ilvl270 gear, and maybe 3rd group healer I seen to struggle healing so I assume maybe I’m playing DRK wrong. So that’s why I asked here.

[patent citrus]

not sure what's the context ark unless i see a recording for myself o_o

[stable herald]

Hmm...

[ripe hound]

Yeah it's weird. People usually don't complain about low ilv if it's a leveling dungeon

[stable herald]

yea

[crimson wind]

Why did they end up changing GNBs SFX?

[ripe hound]

Especially if you are new and sprout

[patent citrus]

and to be honest if you see someone being obnoxious and calling or trash talking someone in public, you can just report them

[crimson wind]

Ilvl matters a lot as a tank

It's the reason you see them get shredded in Bardam's

[primal relic]

Iono I just left after he started making random comments.

[random hollow]

if i change job mid fate i dont get credit?

[plain python]

I think you get exp on current job? but if it is a boss fate, chance is slimmer cuz it is harder to opt out

[manic tinsel]

should i spend the allagan tomestones for armor(augmented ironworks)? I'm still at post ARR(2.2)

[little swift]

why not? it'll be good until lv55 msq in heavensward

if you don't have the weapon that should be the first thing you grab

and if youalready have a full set you can always grab it for alts/trade in extra for company seals

[manic tinsel]

Thanks, but I cannot see any weapon being sold only armor

[patent citrus]

might be in different npc if you are talking about the one in mor dhona

[little swift]

weapon should be sold by the lady next to the one that sells the armor

[manic tinsel]

ohhhh

saw it thanks!!!

[patent citrus]

try to check out the rowena's representative in the main city if you want the concise version of it

[plain python]

I read about minion Farnir and it is a lv17 FATE? Is it an event?

[low shore]

I was told that I can exchange gear from dungeons with the Grand Companies or something? How do I do that?

[manic tinsel]

whats the difference of the concise version?

[granite swan]

@low shore You need to rank up to 2nd Lt first

@low shore Talk to Personnel guy in your grand company

[low shore]

ah ok. Its the expert delivery thing right?

[granite swan]

no theres a promotion option

but its the guy you give deliveries to, yeah

[low shore]

ok cool

until i get that rank should I just sell the gear or is there a way to break them down into materials?

[manic flare]

how do i get a GATE schedule?

[spare plinth]

you know how each expansion leads up to the next one, and the main plot is hydalyn vs zodiark, does that mean shadowbringers' story will lead to 6.0 expansion?

[remote lintel]

post shb

[granite swan]

@low shore I hoarded it till i got 2nd lt since it doesnt take that long, but if your inventory gets to full, id just vendor it. I think you can desynth if you have a crafter for each type tho

[random hollow]

what are leve-quests? like dailies?

[little swift]

leve-quests are just a bunch of repeatable quests

specific areas have leves within specific level range

not particularly good for combat classes, but great for gathering/crafting @random hollow

[random hollow]

oh so I can do leveuests with a gathering class?

[remote lintel]

there are gathering leves

you only have a finite amount of leve allowances

[random hollow]

how do i know if its a gathering leve

[remote lintel]

its in the menu

[granite swan]

theres different sections

Battlecraft is the combat ones, i forget the other 2

Fieldcraft (Gathering) and Tradecraft (Crafting)

[random hollow]

im not sure what to do here, there is no map

[little swift]

how do i get a GATE schedule?
@manic flare this is the most recent gate schedule i can find from the patch notes

[remote lintel]

scroll down

[twilit arch]

scroll down to the bottom of the quest journal

[remote lintel]

thers a leve

[twilit arch]

there's a section for leves specifically

[random hollow]

oh ok thx

[vestal needle]

Do we needa skill to fish in diadem?

on the island

im lv 80 but, i still cant fish there

i finish class quest up to double hook

[twilit arch]

https://imgur.com/a/Jko8peS I havent personally fished myself, but these should still be the pool locations i believe

its an album

for 3 of the nodes, you need cloudfishing

which you get from the lvl 53 quest

[serene bison]

Is there a focus target camera mode?

I wanna see how that looks when dualing and if it's kinda restricting

[gleaming pebble]

Did anyone get an "Unable to install patch files" error when downloading the complete edition of FFXIV or is it just me

[random hollow]

the game is pretty silly....first time trying a group leve, and the game just pops up some tutorial midscreen DX

[little swift]

@serene bison numpad 5 will lock your character movement to the target if thats waht you're looking fro

[leaden ginkgo]

is it worth it to grind for money early in game?

or should I just wait till more high level content?

[polar hound]

the latter

nothing really worth spending gil on early, plus leveling more unlocks more ways to make more gil

[low shore]

Does it matter if I join the Brotherhood of Ash or can I always change later?

[vague forge]

What's the most ideal way to gather mats for upgrading skyskeel tools? Working on 320 HQ Oddly Specific Latex, but best I can get is 50% HQ rate on each node with Leaf Turn 3. Any other skills I should be worried about or is it just supposed to be a grind?

[little swift]

@vague forge i just whacked at the nodes that gave more yield over the ones that gave more quality for a couple hours on end no idea if that was the best way to approach it

[leaden ginkgo]

Takes about 3 hours maybe to gather them - can't remember exactly how long but it was long 🙂

[little swift]

Does it matter if I join the Brotherhood of Ash or can I always change later?
@low shore you can join and assist all the beast tribes

[vague forge]

Oh okay so I'm doing it well enough, just supposed to be a grind. Thanks for the feedback <3.

[leaden ginkgo]

Yep it's a time waste grind - just wait for the fishing one though 🙂

[random hollow]

can I actually avoid getting hit by running away from monsters mid combat?

[little swift]

kiting has a very limited effectiveness in this game

[leaden ginkgo]

hmmm do I need to worry about dps as a tank as I level up? or does it all become relevant after a certain level?

just worried might end up being a shit leader/tank in a group with shitty dps

[little swift]

you should always be dpsing

no matter your job

[leaden ginkgo]

I'm only level 20 rn

[little swift]

tanks being the leader of group is a silly mentality

a group completes content well if everyone does their part

just make sure your tank stance is on, you're using your aoe on mob trash pulls

and you use defensive cooldowns to mitigate the damage

cycling them rather than using them all at once

[leaden ginkgo]

tank stance like the iron will thing?

[little swift]

yes

turn it on at the start of a dungeon if you happen to get synced down

[leaden ginkgo]

so far the only combo I see is the fast attack + bash thing

[little swift]

you should also be using eclipse

on 3 + mobs

[leaden ginkgo]

does eclipse have a combo?

[little swift]

it will

!action prominence

[zinc orbit]

**Prominence** : lvl 40 PLD (2.5 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Delivers an attack with a potency of 100 to all nearby enemies.
Combo Action: Total Eclipse
Combo Potency: 220
Combo Bonus: Restores MP

Powered by XIVAPI

[little swift]

and fast blade should combo into riot blade

not shield bash

shield bash isn't comboed off anything

[leaden ginkgo]

ye sry forgot what it was called

[sand stratus]

System sounds

[leaden ginkgo]

so is dpsing just about triggering the right combos + having right gear?

[keen goblet]

thanks

[little swift]

more or less

tank rotations don't get terribly complicated

[leaden ginkgo]

I heard there's like 2 or something

[little swift]

paladin in particular

has a 3 part physical combo

goring blade > royal authority > atonement

which is 9 gcds long

and also a magic phase

[leaden ginkgo]

gcds?

[little swift]

global cool down

basically pressing one of those weaponskills sets all other weaponskills on a cooldown

so that you can't use the others right away

weaponskills and spells are on the gcd

abilities are off the gcd, which we call off global cooldown

[leaden ginkgo]

so at max level how many rotations would a tank use?

[little swift]

depends on the tank

[leaden ginkgo]

going for paladin

[little swift]

but generally its 1 rotation with a bunch of moving parts

not too many

[leaden ginkgo]

so what like a 4-5 thing combo?

[little swift]

I don't have the dlcs yet should I buy right away or wait?

been just trying it out

[little swift]

you can choose

you have a lot of content in the trial to go through

if you're enjoying it and there's a sale you can grab the game, but not activate teh code until you have nothing else in the trial

[leaden ginkgo]

I bought the base game I think for 24.99

79? that shouldn't be the case

[little swift]

complete edition for pc from the square enix store is 60 dollars

[manic tinsel]

after ARR the MSQ xp given have become low will it rise eventually?

[little swift]

post ARR quests were never meant to give exp

but after the level cap increase, they added some exp to it so it doesn't feel awful

[leaden ginkgo]

can shadowbringers even be accessed by lower level chars?

[manic tinsel]

I see thanks!

[little swift]

heavensward msq will give you exp again

can shadowbringers even be accessed by lower level chars?
@leaden ginkgo no. you need to be level 70 and far enough into the msq to get to shadowbringers

the storyline is quite linear

you have to go through them in order

ARR > HW > SB > SHB

[leaden ginkgo]

I see, thx, I am watching controller guides for paladins

I play pc but I like a chilled out vibe with a controller

[gleaming pebble]

Wait you guys are able to play the game?

[leaden ginkgo]

you mean with controller?

ye it works smoothely

[gleaming pebble]

Wierd

I'm having client problems rn

Tryna install the complete edition lol

[floral dagger]

if you have multiple jobs, how do you know what armor to not sell or give in for expert delivery?

[obsidian patio]

Filter out gear used in gearsets

Or filter out the armoury entirely and move the gear you want to exchange to your inventory

The filter option is on the expert delivery window

[floral dagger]

oh thank you!

[warped nest]

Random tip: you can change setting to direct all new gears you looted go straight into your inventory

Then you can pick what you want to keep and send them to armoury

Works well if you have a lot of gears in armory you want to keep and don't want new gears sneaking in

[leaden ginkgo]

Not sure if here or #glamour-discussion is better but.. You know the animation you get when it says duty/quest complete? Is that based on race, or what?

Can it be changed? Idk why I hate my one (viera)

[random hollow]

what is addle spell for?

reduce dps of enemy casters?

[twilit arch]

The emote used at the end of most dungeons is /cheer iirc which yes is based on race/gender

addle reduces damage from magic, so its not necessarily specifically for enemy casters

a lot of raid wide damage tends to be magic dmg

so if you use addle before it goes out, it'll reduce how much dmg it does

[little swift]

or in the case of some bosses, almost all of their damage is magic

[twilit arch]

for the most part though, you can kind of ignore it since dungeons/normal trials aren't really that hard. Its mainly used in extremes/savages/ultimates

[rotund sable]

If you have a spare weave slot though, doesn't hurt to chuck it in, worst case you did nothing

[ripe hound]

Should you use potions for DPS as healer?

I mean it's a free (paid in gil) damage buff right?

[little swift]

in late game raids

you should use them during raid buff burst phases

usually you'll use one in your opener

and another about 5 minutes in

[crimson wind]

Just rely on ur raid leader to tell you when to pot

[ripe hound]

Also if I'm poor and only do PF stuff, is it ok to not use it?

[crimson wind]

Make money

Be rich

[little swift]

its fine to not pot

food makes a difference though

since it gives you HP

also not a necessity unless you're doing savage+

[crimson wind]

Pugs don't usually clear, so you don't need to pot in pugs

[ripe hound]

I did notice like food gave my healer 10K more health

[ornate gale]

Quick question, if I glamour armor piece A with a glamour piece that's specific to one class, and I switch classes but I use armor piece A, the glamour just doesn't apply right?

[warped nest]

Yup

[ornate gale]

aight

[low shore]

for the companion skills, do I go full healer or once im 4/10 do I go into another one?

[robust crow]

it doesn't really matter tbh but healer is generally the most useful one

most people just go down a path for the barding you get

[low shore]

whats a barding

[robust crow]

armor/clothing for your company chocobo

[low shore]

ah ok

[robust crow]

iirc it's DRG for the DPS tree, WHM for the healer tree

you get the barding when you hit level 10 in a tree

i don't remember what the tank barding was

[thorn mantle]

i accepted some beast tribe quests with a wrong class, if i abandon them will i get the quests/allowances back?

[obtuse sierra]

do i have any reason to train my squadron after i got the captain rank?

[obsidian wren]

It's decent xp for dps up to lv 50, as alternative to potd

[little swift]

like sophie said, they're like discount trusts

and they provide a tad more exp for the time

[obtuse sierra]

exp by doing command missions you mean?

[sturdy mason]

Does the bottom line mean that the 15s shield ends if I get healed a second time?

[obsidian wren]

Yeah conmand mission dungeons

[sturdy mason]

30s shield I mean

[obsidian wren]

No, just the initial divine veil effect pre-shield

So you can't get multiple shields with it

[sturdy mason]

I don't understand what you mean by pre-shield

[rugged flicker]

Where does that new horse mount come from?

The temp Shiva battle?

[obsidian patio]

It removes the buff that would trigger the shield once you get healed

[obsidian wren]

The barrier

[obsidian patio]

@rugged flicker yes for 600 faux leaves or with a gold certificate from khloe

[rugged flicker]

How do you get those?

[timber cape]

sorry but is there a way to auto zoom into NPCs whenever you talk to them?

[little swift]

I don't understand what you mean by pre-shield
@sturdy mason so when you first cast divine veil it applies a buff to you. when you get healed, the buff is consumed, and a shield is spread to everyone in range.

[obsidian patio]

Complete Shiva Unreal once or twice a week depending if you get a retelling from the first clear’s board.

[little swift]

the buff itself lasts 30 seconds if you are not healed

and then afterwards, the shield itself also has its own duration

[sturdy mason]

Ok that makes sense, ty

[rugged flicker]

But regardless, once 5.4's here that's it, no way of getting the mount?

[sturdy mason]

Do I use this ability like I would Rampart/Sentinel? Just another mitigation?

[obsidian patio]

Unknown but I’m assuming no.

[little swift]

the mount shouldn't be going away, just the fight should be rotating

[obsidian patio]

It’s just that the chosen trial will change

[little swift]

would be my assumption

@sturdy mason its good for raidwide damage, but you can use it in trash pulls all the same as an extra bit of self padding

[obsidian patio]

Also getting the mount without getting lucky on the 100 leaf square takes like 20-30 weeks or something

[sturdy mason]

I don't think I have a self heal right now, lvl 56

[twilit arch]

yeah, clemency is 58

so before then its entirely on the healer to realize you've popped divine

[normal breach]

should i be using materia for classes under lvl 80? like if im doing a lvl 72 dungeon should i add materia to my lvl 72 gear?

[untold sand]

any leveling setups for machinist?

[random hollow]

is there any downside in completing a Mainjob Quest in Very Easy?

[warped nest]

@normal breach nope

[twilit arch]

generally don't need to worry about materia below 80. if you have grade 6s or below you can meld them since its 100% retrieval but otherwise doesn't matter @normal breach

no @random hollow

[random hollow]

what are the pro's of doing it on normal? more XP or gil?

[untold sand]

is sunstone or fluorite better on MCH?

[oak ice]

It's the exact same, you just get a buff making you stronger on easy and V. Easy

[warped nest]

Which one of them have dexterity, Necro

[random hollow]

i see thx

Fluorite

Strength does nothing for machinist.

!faq potency

[zinc orbit]

Error!

No tag named potency exists, Kupo!

[hollow mango]

ahmm

what is potency?

[obsidian patio]

Basically a damage multiplier that lets you compare the power of skills

[hollow mango]

im confused as to what it really is

[plain python]

can you do the same five different command missions if you change GC?

[hollow mango]

hmmm

[plain python]

the same that you have done in previous GC

[obsidian patio]

Though you shouldn’t compare potencies across jobs at 1:1 due to different damage formulas, traits, and scaling.

[hollow mango]

i see

[slate arrow]

300 potency on one job does not mean a similar skill will do the same amount of damage on another job

[obsidian patio]

@plain python pretty sure not.

[hollow mango]

cause i just unlocked Blood of the dragoon

and it increases potency of jump and spineshatter dive by 30%

so basically more damage

?

[obsidian patio]

Yes

[glossy flare]

yup

keep that buff up at all times

at least that's the goal

[obsidian patio]

!action equilibrium

@obsidian patio owwwi have one

if i use jump

and im outside aoe

of enemy

i wont get hit?

[little swift]

nope you doif you jump in

[hollow mango]

what?

[obsidian patio]

Your position moves with you when you use jump

[sturdy mason]

As a PLD, does using dungeons for leveling every scale off? Or is it always the most effective method of leveling with <5m queue times?

[hollow mango]

when though jump takes me back to my position?

[obsidian patio]

So if your position is in the AoE during the animation of the jump you’ll get hit

Yes

[glossy flare]

In theory it is possible to jump into an aoe and be out again before it goes off though

[hollow mango]

so before it goes off?

[glossy flare]

but since every aoe has different timing that's not very reliable

[karmic niche]

scale off?

[warped nest]

@sturdy mason for all jobs, doing dungeons is always good

They mean, is there a cut off point

Where it is not worth doing dungeon anymore

[sturdy mason]

Hard to explain, I just want to make sure as I level up, that it always gives the most EXP, or if it scales as you level higher or something, meaning less EXP

[warped nest]

If you queue for the highest level dungeon (but not 50/60/70)

[hollow mango]

@glossy flare so i could get hit with a Jump even if im outside an aoe?

[sturdy mason]

compared to doing potd or fates or something

[warped nest]

The exp yield is always worthwhile

[hollow mango]

i just need to do it before it goes off?

[warped nest]

Dungeon beats everything else, if we just look at exp / dungeon time

the only thing thats generally a better source of exp than dungeons is the msq

[warped nest]

Even for DPS jobs, if you find a friend with tank or healer job

[twilit arch]

but once you've done that, dungeons become defacto the best source of exp assuming your dungeon queues are quick

[glossy flare]

the moment the aoe template disappears is the moment the damage becomes unavoidable

[warped nest]

go queue dungeons

[glossy flare]

so if you are in the template while jumping

then yes, you take damage

[little swift]

i just need to do it before it goes off?
@hollow mango you need to do it before the game snapshots your position and deals the damage to you as though you were in there

[warped nest]

Simplified version, you take damage if the server see you stand in AOE

And you want to move out early, because the server don't see in real time

[hollow mango]

and a jump doesnt really jump u out?

[warped nest]

Nope

[hollow mango]

aww shucks

thats kindaaa

[warped nest]

Elusive jump does move you

[hollow mango]

i thought

i can cast jump outside aoe and not take damage shucks

[warped nest]

And on of the other jump attack, I forgot the name

This is not that kind of game

The damage detection is basically checking origin points in a 2d surface

Yeah, btw, in the damage detection side, your character is considered as a dot

[hollow mango]

i just thought it would be cool if the lvl 30 jump that takes me back to place can proling my blood of the dragon

prolong

[glossy flare]

it does more damage while under the effect

[hollow mango]

cause i can alrdy see myself losing the meter

[glossy flare]

but it doesn't prolong it

[polar hound]

Other things will

[glossy flare]

you will have some skills that prolong the buff later on

so it's actually kinda hard to lose it if you just keep doing combos

[hollow mango]

i see

[polar hound]

You will have full uptime easy on that yea

[old gyro]

Is there a Rowena's splendors list that I can lookup online?

[little swift]

[old gyro]

I have found the list which i can trade for but not the list which shows collectable values.

[little swift]

[old gyro]

Thank you.

[polar hound]

Check timers maybe

[old gyro]

and it'll bring up a list of the collectables with the ratings ranges

it'll also have the skybuilders stuff so may need to scroll a bit

[hollow mango]

during*

[polar hound]

Damn. I have been gone through that website for several time, never found that page. Thank you so much, @twilit arch

[polar hound]

[zinc orbit]

Quick guide to weaving/clipping

Click the image, then 'Open original'

[hollow mango]

[wintry chasm]

Open the image then

[karmic niche]

lol

[hollow mango]

i did

[polar hound]

Yea, while your gcd is rolling you can weave up to two abilities (sometimes only 1 due to animation lock) inbetween

[karmic niche]

open original

[wintry chasm]

....Zoom in then

[weary ivy]

Heyo, does any one know whats a Linkshell

[karmic niche]

[hollow mango]

Yea, while your gcd is rolling you can weave up to two abilities (sometimes only 1 due to animation lock) inbetween
@polar hound its like buffering?

[karmic niche]

is that bad on the phone?

[hollow mango]

i dont need to spam press it?

[wintry chasm]

Well that's the important bit

[polar hound]

They're usually on a cooldown yes

[hollow mango]

thankss> Well that's the important bit
@wintry chasm

They're usually on a cooldown yes
@polar hound okay thanks

[obsidian patio]

@weary ivy basically like chat channels made by players that they can invite others to

[polar hound]

Pretty sure most if not all of your jumps are ogcd

[wintry chasm]

They all are yes

[polar hound]

One or two only allow for single weaving iirc, cant remember which but longer animation lock

[weary ivy]

Hmm so its just a chat channel

Like Novice Network

[wintry chasm]

Yeah sure

[hollow mango]

how do i remove training dummy aggro?? llmao

[wintry chasm]

right click on target

reset emnity

[obsidian patio]

All of the jumps don’t allow double-weaving

[hollow mango]

owwwwww okay lmao

[obsidian patio]

Too much of an animation lock

[polar hound]

Oh f

[hollow mango]

i see

when using dragon dive should i just wait for a mob of enemies to use it?

after a mini boss?

or just cast every ogcd as much as i can?

[wintry chasm]

On every ogcd pretty much

[polar hound]

As long as youre not holding it for super long..more uses=more dps overall

[wintry chasm]

^

If you know like

[hollow mango]

i see

[wintry chasm]

In a second there are going to be several mobs

[karmic niche]

except you do the buff 123 then do the healing 123

[obsidian patio]

@plain python nope

Closest possible thing are the level 78 dwarf headpieces

[polar hound]

The dwarf helmets kinda but not

[twilit arch]

the best you can do is use one of the face paint options to make a black line across the eyes while wearing blm1 to get the vivi look

[little swift]

tomahawk > infuriate > storm's eye combo > inner chaos > inner release > fell cleave x5 > inner chaos > inner chaos

would be a tldr on the opener

[obsidian patio]

But those have hats and a beard

[karmic niche]

just fell cleave

LOL

[plain python]

there goes my plan to pretend to be Vivi

[little swift]

after that its gauge management until your next IR window

[wintry chasm]

Just be Dwarven Vivi /s

[karmic niche]

well shit
