@loud swift boo

[vestal hollow]

[whole estuary]

[daring pine]

@wicked delta bro

[daring pine]

https://tenor.com/view/bunny-sleepy-gooba-owa-owaowa-gif-2311503198775714764

[loud swift]

well i was in a doom train

[daring pine]

come pf

[loud swift]

whereeee

[daring pine]

wdym where 💔

[loud swift]

where pf

[vestal hollow]

its always ppl from bryn

[daring pine]

drg can flex to mt

[loud swift]

surely

as 1.0 intended

[daring pine]

surely

[loud swift]

oh wait i need to show you my custom made banner for ucob prog in one of my discord servers

its so peak

[stray forge]

the ecliptic group only made it to split once in 25 minutes

[zealous meteor]

i will never not read prog as progesterone

[stray forge]

👉 🕳️

[daring pine]

oh the drg just

left

lol.

[loud swift]

lol

im not in aether and i don thtink ill be able to join

aether too full

just like you

[river sequoia]

Lord

💀

[stray forge]

[river sequoia]

I was at 10%

[worn bluff]

ok but m10 has almost no difference between MT and OT

i mean it’s fresh prog it’s fine to call dibs ig

[stray forge]

I didn't even think of this lmfao

[worn bluff]

you basically pull the boss for like 10s, take a tankbuster

that’s mostly it

[river sequoia]

whats the average

amount of stacks

Vamp gets

on clears?

[midnight furnace]

Usually 10

[west zephyr]

The minimun, aka 8, if someone was sleeping, 9

[midnight furnace]

She will reach over 8 at the end even if you have no hits

And 8 is where her Orb gets Massive and attacks get bigger

[worn bluff]

wait what’s the enrage stacks? 16 or 20

[midnight furnace]

There is nothing like that

[west zephyr]

16

But is scripted, isn't it

[worn bluff]

yeah i just mean the actual enrage cast

[midnight furnace]

Enrage cast is when she executes crowd kill a 3rd time

[worn bluff]

it would be cool if they made her do an early enrage if you hit that number of stacks

[midnight furnace]

That means her Aether is maxed out and she will cast Finale Fatale and kill everyone no matter what

[worn bluff]

yeah i know, i just mean that they also set her stacks to a scripted amount

[midnight furnace]

Ah

Scripted wise its like this

[west zephyr]

I could see it if it wasn't a first floor

[midnight furnace]

She gains 4 the first crowd kill

And gains 4 more on the second one

[dapper zealot]

SHE'S DRAINING THE AUDIENCE

[worn bluff]

it would be fun if you get to 16 early and she just immediately casts the enrage

i mean you’re probably wiping anyways

[midnight furnace]

Id actually like that too

[loud swift]

...of their aether 😏

[midnight furnace]

The more and more i do this tier it gets sad for me to say this but Vamp is the weakest fight fun wise for me

[west zephyr]

If it wasn't a first floor we'd also have more mechanics that punish you with her giving stacks

It does what, the half cleave?

[worn bluff]

i’m ok with M9 - it’s just more of an extreme fight

[midnight furnace]

Its still pretty cool thematically, music and i really love her, but the fight is pretty static after a while

[west zephyr]

And that's it

[midnight furnace]

Then again i guess a first floor should be that

Only mech i really have trouble is deathmatch and thats cause im a Caster

[worn bluff]

the half moon and tank busters get bigger yeah

it’s kind of cool how it works with coffin maker

you get a tiny safe spot

[vestal hollow]

coffinmaker being easier in savage is so funny

in normal you have spreads and stacks there

[midnight furnace]

That is a funny point indeed lol

But i guess with the markers its easier also

Since they appear long before it comes out

[river sequoia]

Like how you can see the progress

I've made 🤣

Within the past day

[west zephyr]

M11 weapons are also faster in normal

[midnight furnace]

Part of me is probably gonna try to do this tier as melee later on when i gear another job, i want to have my perspective on that too cause it seems Melee is hell this tier

[worn bluff]

i was watching someone do a m11 c41 and the clearee failed greeding arena split tower and gave everyone bleed just to parse a 0

[midnight furnace]

Which is very different from how Pandaemonium was

Are NIN and VPR the most range friendly melees?

[daring pine]

i swear filling this fucking pf is harder than the actual fight so far

[rapid whale]

its just so close to reset i think a lot of ppl that are in are going for clears

well maint*

[worn bluff]

yeah probably more parties tomorrow or weds

[trim frost]

41 missions to max phaenna

[dapper zealot]

2 hours left, chop chop

[river sequoia]

So I know most of the fight for m9s

should I just do a 5m per for clear?

[rapid whale]

i mean if your goal is to do it within the next 2hr maybe

if you dont care abt that just go for it tmrw

ive joined book runs as low as 2m before

[stray forge]

I wish my parties were making it to arena split

[river sequoia]

So clearing it within the next 2 hrs gets me what?

The book or gear?

[stray forge]

I mean

gl finding a group to clear it with chests still

imo its just gonna be book

[river sequoia]

I have yet to clear it

lol

But I've reached enrage

So basically i know all the mechanics

[tulip wraith]

ok but its gonna be harder to find 7 people who also havent cleared if you want chests

[river sequoia]

🤔

[stray forge]

7 people who also haven't cleared, and are able to clear for you lol

[river sequoia]

yeah aint happening

[tulip wraith]

i mean a book is a still a book

if you really want it that badly

[stray forge]

everyone keeps using kindred markers and calling them outer. are they interchangeable or something

or am I the one misremembering what kindred markers are

the ones that include this mark

aren't these

not inner or outer

am i losing my mind

[midnight furnace]

HOLLUP

5 million for clear, do you need chest?

[wicked delta]

choose positivity ❤️

[midnight furnace]

If its for 5 million i can help clear (im honest)

[tulip wraith]

if i wasnt at work id join too tbh

[midnight furnace]

Actually id really like that cause with 5 more id finally have about enough to get the Pilgrim Traverse Hair on the Market Board

[stray forge]

for 5m they deserve an extra chest

[midnight furnace]

I mean if he does want help i can but yeah i cant give chest

[tulip wraith]

35 mil total spent for a no chest m9s clear

fair trade i say

[jolly flume]

man astro blows in this fight

one try alt job from whm/sch but man

I miss my raptures

[molten moon]

Bruh your dancer lol

[dapper zealot]

what's that extra blue bar

[molten moon]

Pet potency

Ole esteem putting their work in

[jolly flume]

the dps check in question

[molten moon]

To be fair, that pull was carried by the supports

You and the drk putting in work lol

[stray forge]

I just want to make it to the prog point once bro

literally just once

[fierce matrix]

They are not

There are outer markers and inner markers

The markers are placed differently so the safe spot is on corners on the outside vs the corners on the inside. If you are not on those spots, you will die on patterns where its Outside Portals + back safe

[stray forge]

what would you call these markers

[fierce matrix]

idk

[stray forge]

thanks

[fierce matrix]

like

[stray forge]

my entire fucking parties are gaslighting my ass

[fierce matrix]

id have to compare the two I have to it

and see the whole arena

you are giving me a small part without the other parts of the arena

and no edges on N/S

so I can't really help you

[stray forge]

i can try to get better pic after this party fills

[stray forge]

best I can do :\

[fierce matrix]

That looks like outer

[faint drift]

Outer

[worn bluff]

i think the way to tell is like the 4 marker is in line with the tiles on the floor

for outer

inner markers look more offset

[stray forge]

i reject both

cheese method go

[worn bluff]

me reading M12 phase 2 raid plan

[rain geode]

Just has an awesome thought that won't be relevant for Years but what if the Arcadian Ultimate instead of a retelling is us defending our title

[tulip wraith]

waittttt

[wicked delta]

That would be fire but how are they gonna incorporate them removing feral souls into the mix

[tulip wraith]

thats for yoshi p to think about

i demand my fun first

[thin fox]

how long til maint

[tulip wraith]

35 minutes

[worn bluff]

alternate timeline: everyone remembers feral souls were actually kind of cool though

[tulip wraith]

8.0 introduces a shard with ethical feral souls

[trim frost]

ethical souls

[rain geode]

I dunno they trained so hard they can just do that now ez

[stray forge]

anything but weapons prog

ANYTHING

[trim frost]

i know like feral soul bad but like you actually can't convince me that fist fights are just as exciting

that last cutscene was so corny

[random needle]

m11 has officially started

[stray forge]

would furries rejoice

[random needle]

Give me a shard of nothing but Hrothgar

[tulip wraith]

im listening

[rain geode]

I think im finally feeling well enough to raid

[random needle]

And naturally, #it happened

[rain geode]

I mean I assume they can still use abilities and shit like theres already tons of people who can do crazy shit without feral souls

[worn bluff]

it’s definitely not as exciting

[trim frost]

feral souls are unfortunately too good of a concept so they had to shut it down early by making it evil and bad

[stray forge]

hear me out

they fight naked

[random needle]

For whatever it's worth, Hector and Yaana are both Pugilists when unenhanced, it might get more interesting when you look at fighters that have their own bespoke weapons, like Honey B.'s lance or Eutrope using electrope

[worn bluff]

weapons but they’re twice as far apart

[random needle]

or Vamp Fatale teasing the 8.0 blitzballer job

[stray forge]

you literally just stack on the scythe and its gg

sacrifice a little uptime

[jolly flume]

not bad for 773 and first try on the job I suppose

the fuck does this mean

[worn bluff]

you’re never going home

[rain geode]

Probably because maint is soon?

also managed so sneak in my heavy holoblade for the week even tho I dont actually need it so thats nice

[random needle]

I should be at 6 now, so tomorrow I'll get my 7th and can get my BLM tome weap

[rain geode]

I very ironically got a universal tomestone drop from my M10S reclear this week then got sick on wensday and havnt been able to raid so it literally didnt matter lol

since the "gaurenteed" one if tommorow

[jolly flume]

I gotta buy a tome weapon or too because I've been playing practically every healer in reclears

and I'd rather not be running around with a doomtrain wep

[normal blade]

Gamers. This is such a bad day

The opps won

[rain geode]

but they make noises

[tulip wraith]

is tome gear better than penta melded crafted, i still dont know how gearing works

all i know is im buying based off bis and praying

but idk how worth replacing is when not augmented

[random needle]

I'm pretty sure tome gear is better than penta'd crafted, yeah

[tulip wraith]

we'll ive been clearing and progging so good enough for me

[random needle]

Considering that a common thing for gear-feeding statics is letting their samurai get the tomestone from floor 2 so they can get a tome weapon ASAP

[limpid edge]

ok i think i need to go over act 2 a lot

next week after reclears

[jolly flume]

by a small margin usually yeah

assuming the stats are good and all

[stray forge]

final run of day

finally make it to ecliptic out of the 10 ecliptic groups I've joined today

[tulip wraith]

im assuming tome weapon tonight is gonna be better than ex weapon for everyone

[jolly flume]

pretty much yes

weapon damage is a ridiculously strong stat

[tulip wraith]

oki doki

[worn bluff]

it depends on the piece - some are sidegrades or actually very slightly worse

[rain geode]

I'm pretty sure having more main stat means they'll (almost) always come out ahead

[worn bluff]

due to stat tiering

[rain geode]

Unless the substats are like absolute ass

[tulip wraith]

fair

[worn bluff]

i swapped to a 780 piece (that will become 790 bis) and even with meld solver my dps was slightly worse

[tulip wraith]

excited to see what fuckery patch notes will show for new relic step

i know we saw a sneak peak of the aetherwell on the prelim notes, did we get any sort of tease on the atma for the first step?

trying to see if we'll see what needs to be done before maint ends

[normal blade]

I heard it was tomes

[finite plank]

795 step right?

or just 775?

[stray forge]

775

[random needle]

I think this one will be 775 yeah, 795 isn't until 7.5x

[boreal pumice]

equal to train wpns but think you get to pick the stats on this step

[jolly flume]

i'm so eepy

early bed angle I think

[stray forge]

You’re always “eepy”

[jolly flume]

it's bad today

terminal even

0 energy

[random needle]

I don't think I've had to deal with weekly reclears before

[stray forge]

I will sub for ur reclears

Just get me out of pf

And maybe like 1m per reclear ez

[rain geode]

Man what do I do with myself now that maitence is happening

My favorite is Raclette

Why don’t you do the mechanic with week 3 pf if ur so confident about urself

[whole estuary]

I like the spicy ones and the ones soaked in wine

smoked is good too

[clear plume]

I did, it took less than 10 pulls to clear

[jolly flume]

week 3 pf doesn't render me unable to do the mechanic

that's their problem

[proper cave]

Oh and, yeah, sounds like the relics are doing the same thing. Big one time step followed by easy repeating step for other weapons.

This bottom part has me concerned though. This sounds even more like light than the last step

[boreal pumice]

Well let’s wait and see but keep pitchfork ready anyway

I’m gonna on a limb and say it’s like hw light kill bosses with it on / oc only applies to ce

For the relic weapon?

I just saw this.. Is this related towards what ur doing in realm reborn???

I'm reading it over and over again yet I'm quite confused 👀

[trim frost]

kaede akamatsu

[proper cave]

Here's the whole section, which should make it easier to read.

There are three quests in this new chain. First seems to be just an unlock. Second sounds like where the bulk of the new grind is. Third sounds like the previous finishing steps in which you buy a new tomestome material and exchange that for the new weapon.

The mentions of a "phantom glass" and certain quest steps being job locked sounds a lot like previous "light/density" steps in which we just grind out content.

[vestal hollow]

if they make it so you can only do this step in oc i will be vaporized

[loud venture]

they wont do that

[tulip wraith]

back to the crescent with you

[dapper zealot]

The new step will be getting 100 bunny chests :)

[vestal hollow]

they could

[loud venture]

they specifically said they designed the relic be done in or out of OC

[tulip wraith]

but then step 2 was only out

[thin fox]

the second step of the relic was so fucking shit lol

oh uhh just do dailies

so basically more endwalker relicslop

[loud venture]

yeah but only out is very different than only in

[robust shoal]

oh no

[rain geode]

If they make it so you can only do this step in OC ill probably just do the step in OC

[robust shoal]

my static needs to learn a new meteor strat

[vestal hollow]

cooked

[thin fox]

why

[vestal hollow]

you know why

hes telling on himself

[thin fox]

no i don't

hence the question

[vestal hollow]

you could previously stretch tethers long enough such that you could take both the baits and the tether and it would do no damage

[robust shoal]

yeah

we were doing that strat

[vestal hollow]

some jank about max tether range and the arena being so large that it would outrange the damage

[echo ibex]

They fixed that under a month but we still cannot eat while sit

[thin fox]

oh arena split

[trim frost]

smn buffs

[thin fox]

mf thats not meteors

meteors is a whole other mechanic

if you call that mechanic majestic meteor you are a psychopath

i dont trust your intentions

[trim frost]

https://klipy.com/gifs/colon-three-kitty

its ok i do the same thing and then wonder why im so hungry all the fucking time

[vestal hollow]

i did it because this fuckass storm has my metabolism all fucked up

[plush herald]

This is why I binge strawberries and kaiser rolls and then drink the rest of my nutrients

It's nutritionist-confirmed not to kill me

and it supports being woefully autismal to the point of forgetting food

[stray forge]

uh...

[plush herald]

I'm serious about the safeness of this, fortunately. Been living it for many years LOL

I have a VERY rapid metabolism and so I eat a LOT too

Like, you cannot get nutritional deficiencies like this

The drinks selectively avoid them and the organic fiber stops you from becoming inactive digestively

[trim frost]

i'm so happy for you i think

[plush herald]

Just some healthful nutriscience that's universally aplicable

XD

Anyone could see roughly the same satiety level from doing it

i dont like strawberries like that

you can build lactose tolerance by just consuming lactose until your body learns to overcome the skill issue

People can get accupuncture to quell the meat reaction symptoms but it still hurts their body on the inside if they then choose to eat it

[trim frost]

i dont actually have a peanut allergy but my friend does and we went to a mochi stall at a night market in taiwan where they didnt mention that they put crushed peanuts in the mochi and he almost died

[jolly flume]

awk

[tulip wraith]

it also takes a few hours to show any effect as well after eating the meat, right?

[trim frost]

v awk

they gave him a free naked mochi as apology

[plush herald]

Yeah or sometimes even longer

[vestal hollow]

i am allergic to white fish (seemingly just certain preparations) and apple skin, for some reason

[tulip wraith]

omg same maybe

im allergic to something in carrots and apples

[vestal hollow]

its some compound in the skin and ppl tell me like

"just skin the apple??" no bitch thats WEIRD

[dull drum]

rinon strat dead in dirt

[trim frost]

yup

[jolly flume]

the only thing I'm allergic to is penicillin which is a weird thing to br allergic to

[tulip wraith]

it just makes my throat and lips slightly irritated

nothing bad enough yet

[shy obsidian]

anyone else with a peanut allergy here?

[tulip wraith]

i will continue to eat

[plush herald]

Temporary invulnerability bugs are like the gyaru girls of final fantasy 14. They will make way for themselves and loudly display, but then vanish in a heartbeat and put down zero roots. So many 1000s of this bug existed before

XD

[proper cave]

Opioids here. I either go no pain killers or jump straight to the hard addictive stuff.

[plush herald]

That right there is why they're taking opioids selectively off the main market

[vestal hollow]

sexy

[plush herald]

and classing up to proper neurologics etc

[dull drum]

[stray forge]

I got called a gyaru by gacha gamers just bc I dyed my hair blonde

Only the finest comparisons in ff14

Probably inaccurate in comparison to the m5 boss color scheme

Idk

[shy obsidian]

i don't think it looked too off

[true beacon]

Can someone directly link the patch notes

Because the fuckass Kupo api doesn’t link it

[clear plume]

[true beacon]

Was wondering what this’d be

Then I read lower

And I assume this is good?

[trim frost]

salted earth

and the whatever followup aoes that spawn after certain raidwides

[true beacon]

Yeahhh

I did notice that

[trim frost]

its whatever

[tired egret]

so

[trim frost]

basically just guarantees that you'll have sturdy for two actions

i don't really see the benefit in knowing about sturdy proactively tbh

[tired egret]

DRK can now properly relate to NIN players

in terms of placing AoE puddles

[trim frost]

well it's the boss's vfx that's getting adjusted not drk

[tired egret]

true

but still funny nontheless

[trim frost]

unfortunately he's taiwanese

[clear plume]

that is unfortunate

[worn bluff]

damn can't eat peanut mochi

[dull drum]

being asian in general and being allergic to peanuts is a death sentence cant lie

[dapper zealot]

Just don't have an allergy, ez

[spice path]

'Timeworn techniques'.. id say we are gathering timeworn artifacts.

[stray forge]

well

please dont say timeworn artifacts

[spice path]

I think we might be. Probably not thru DR tho.

[thin fox]

@dull drum CONGRATULATIONS on the M11S SMN (it did less damage in 7.4) clear! I know you've been working really hard (M11S check was harder on SMN in 7.4) at it, and I'm happy that you've (SMNs did less damage in 7.4) achieved your goal of completion!

[dull drum]

[jolly flume]

no chili peanut noodles

No peanut dipping sauce for hotpot

[dapper zealot]

Peanut, sesame oil, bit of garlic mince, chilli

[jolly flume]

I have a separate bowl for chili

[rapid whale]

no spice in hot pot sauce is atual crime

[dapper zealot]

Acceptable

Also spicy broth too

[jolly flume]

chili, garlic, crushed peanut, green onion, little bit of soy

[dapper zealot]

I really want some malatang now

But it's too hot

“I HAVE TO DEBONE IT MYSELF???”

[stray forge]

[dull drum]

bro had en epiphany afterward though he was like damn this shit fresh as fuck

[jolly flume]

I don't think it's anything special

[stray forge]

i like the ginger stuff of which idk the official name for

[dapper zealot]

It's overrated

[jolly flume]

what's actually special is the ginger mince with the hot oil yeah

that shit slaps

[dull drum]

whatever the sauce is

it carried

rest is ok

[jolly flume]

it's like literally just crushed ginger and spring onions and msg then you pour hot oil over it

but by god

[dull drum]

i prefer pho ga over pho bo which apparently is a crazy take among my gen

idk man

white people when they have to work for their food

[jolly flume]

white people when the fish is not filleted

white people when organ meats

[dull drum]

ngl generational discovery in japan?

[vestal hollow]

i live in the mid atlantic eating steamed crabs is like a deep cultural tradition here and so many put their nose up at picking them LOL

[dapper zealot]

white people

[dull drum]

grilled intestine

that shit is fucking fire

[jolly flume]

big tripe fan

ngl

[vestal hollow]

these sorts of white people are why i live by the rule that i am willing to eat anything "weird" at least once

[vestal hollow]

SAME

[dapper zealot]

Liver is a hit or miss for me

[vestal hollow]

i cant do chicken liver its too rich

[jolly flume]

i'm willing to eat damn near anything edible

I draw the line at like balut though

that's too freaky for me

[dapper zealot]

I find liver in stews are kinda eh, stir fry is peak

[vestal hollow]

i am very much a texture person so if the taste is better than the texture ill eat more of it

[dull drum]

dont get me started i used to work at a cajun seafood boil place

whenever white people came in to eat theyd just be like "i have to crack open the seafood/shrimp myself???"

[dapper zealot]

Blood jelly good

[vestal hollow]

people are WEIRDER about crabs lol

[dull drum]

yeah idk

the moment you make them open up a crab

[vestal hollow]

they act like its some alien ritual

[dull drum]

they get scared shitless

yeah

[vestal hollow]

"what do you mean i dont just hit it with a hammer"

nothing hits better than crabs and beer

anyways i have to go to bed now

[dapper zealot]

I do hate eating prawns with the shell on ngl

[stray forge]

crabs do be looking kinda crazy on the inside

[craggy marsh]

Going to a chinese place tomorrow and my husband's mom warned us that it's "really spicy" and we both asked if she means white people spicy or actual spicy food

now stop covering half my damn screen with titan

[amber fable]

1.62% buff

So its not much better still

[shy obsidian]

do you think summoner would have much lower damage if it was a DoT DPS

[amber fable]

Depends on potencies of skills

[torn kindle]

Well you have to remember what made DoTs worse was forced downtime

So if you rely on your DoTs but they get cut off early by mechanics you lose damage through basically no fault of your own

[craggy marsh]

SE logic "Buff this job by 1% each patch instead of doing anything substantial"

[torn kindle]

Also the buff only exists during your 2m so for the other minute and 45 seconds you’re doing the same damage

[craggy marsh]

So the buff is basically nonexistent

[torn kindle]

Same energy as buffing Full Metal Field or Tenri by 100 potency

Sounds big, but it’s a button you only press once every 2 minutes

And +100 potency every 2 minutes feels very small

[alpine plover]

They should 100% make dots tick even if boss is untargetable

[valid solar]

its not possible, we dont have the technology

[robust shoal]

funnily enough there is exactly one boss in the game where that happens (to my knowledge)

[valid solar]

which one

[robust shoal]

phantom train

the main boss is still vulnerable because it needs to take damage from destroying the chimney

[valid solar]

phantom train is a bit of an odd one though

oh yeah I was gonna ask if it was because of the chimney

[stray forge]

theres another train boss?

wtf

[amber fable]

Its the first train

[dapper zealot]

Omega

Someone didn't do their raids smh

[stray forge]

I did not :^)

[dapper zealot]

Go do all the old raids

[echo ibex]

And also doom train

[stray forge]

I can't

[echo ibex]

Drg stonks +200%

[worn bluff]

unsync m10s bros dying to poison as they're trying to do their ultimate attack

[echo ibex]

Wait

Now that you mention it

[stray forge]

When will vprs picto phase be over

[echo ibex]

Nabriales can die to dots while being untarget

[latent terrace]

i think most modern bosses just become immune when untargetable from phase changes

it's mostly arr+hw and some stb bosses

[sleek moon]

PRIMAL IS CONGESTED

im so mad

ive been making my aether bros static members come to primal for raid

now we all might have to go to dynamis or some shit

[latent terrace]

you should pay transfer to aether and become part of them problem then maybe square will do something

[sleek moon]

primal was also the overflow PF for aether

but now....

[amber fable]

You cant transfer to congested worlds

[sleek moon]

aether isnt fully congested anymore

but i dont want to go there

[latent terrace]

in jp people been complaining about dc monopoly for 3 years already with no avail

[amber fable]

One dc someday

[tacit lagoon]

congested… cries in oce

[sleek moon]

we can send you the RP beach party again to block entire zones

[shy obsidian]

ADAMANTOISE?

[stray forge]

wtf I’m on a congested world

[round burrow]

I CAN FINALLY MAKE ANOTHER ALT ON MALBOROOO

Yee

[brisk scarab]

I want servers up NOW

[distant knoll]

lol all of primal congested now?

that's funny

[trim frost]

for fucking what

being the only previously open non-dynamis dc??

[robust shoal]

they've been strangely heavy-handed with their congestion stuff

feels like they're slamming their fists on the scales in a new way every patch

[craggy marsh]

An rp venue I go to every Monday and Tuesday has been closed for 3 weeks now bc of congestion on aether

[rapid whale]

i wonder what the relic quest will be

[molten moon]

Yay new turtles

[brisk scarab]

I hope the BLM relic looks cool

[violet cairn]

I'm crying rn I forgor to clear a spot

[valid solar]

this is why I never have a full inventory

VAMP FATALE SIMULATOR

[tulip wraith]

ill run an m12n and report back

[rapid whale]

i get the feeling its gonna be like, a single point per thing

[trim frost]

um

is that bad

why in the world is the game randomly spiking from 50% to 100% gpu usage

[deft yarrow]

oh shit you can progress relics with savage? nice

also the crafted stuff needs food+ cp tisane it seems

unless you buy it whole from marketboard

[tulip wraith]

i just used food plus my pentamelded armor with a macro

[shy obsidian]

so... what changed about the Grooving Green minion?

i can only assume they forgot about his black schlera

but I can't see anything different about his hair

[tulip wraith]

one m12n clear=8

[trim frost]

oh that doesn't seem too bad

i wonder how much it is per CE

[tulip wraith]

oh awesome

[tulip wraith]

was about to just check that out

[trim frost]

why.

[tulip wraith]

...

this is gonna be multi step isnt it

[trim frost]

awesome

[trim frost]

ew

[deft yarrow]

its anima relic step but instead of a cute fairy its a blob of shit

[trim frost]

yeah basically

[tulip wraith]

heres all the duties btw

from the many men CE

[obtuse goblet]

15 from expert

[torn kindle]

Do another and see if it needs the daily bonus

[obtuse goblet]

i'll let someone else do that i'm gonna get my tome weapon first to make stuff go a litttle faster

[tulip wraith]

3 from an urqo fate gold medal

[obtuse goblet]

oh yea fate farming is gonna be the best than

[rapid whale]

ce gave 5

[tulip wraith]

3 from a LM fate gold medal

seems 3 per fate universal

thats enough testing from me

well

...

do i need sleep?

[rapid whale]

sure

[tulip wraith]

i say better to reset my sleep schedule by pulling an all nighter

theres useless science to be done

[odd beacon]

hows relics steps outside oc

[craggy marsh]

I'll just do the daily roulettes

[torn kindle]

10 from M9S

[trim frost]

thank you lazy xiv players i love you

[deft yarrow]

m12n gives 8

[valid solar]

are those 3 crafted items a master recipe ?

which crafter makes em

[tulip wraith]

4*

[deft yarrow]

you need at least 3 different crafters

[trim frost]

i think all crafters can make one of the types

basically the same as last time but with the newer mats and harder crafts

[plain pelican]

So assuming it's a guaranteed drop.. it's about 35 fates... guess I'm making shared progress today

[deft yarrow]

metalworking jobs for conductor, cooking jobs for catalysts and... idk what to call the others for agglomerate

[trim frost]

the buckets are usually crp/ltw/wvr, bsm/arm/gsm, and alc/cul

but idk just look up aspected in ur crafting list you'll see it

[valid solar]

yeah I have all crafters levelled I just cant find the craft

[craggy marsh]

I'm gonna wait until my cousin is awake before I craft

[valid solar]

[trim frost]

raphael is right there

[craggy marsh]

Raphael is stinky

[tulip wraith]

theres 3 of them

[trim frost]

omg you people can't do anything

[craggy marsh]

It's called a joke

[trim frost]

yes

[craggy marsh]

Live a little

[trim frost]

my message was also a joke

[craggy marsh]

Damn

[trim frost]

get played

[craggy marsh]

I will now sewer slide

Confused why people are buying the mats when they're so easy to gather

[tulip wraith]

timed nodes

thats why i bought

[craggy marsh]

[rapid whale]

someone on my server bought up every single tome mat and now they are all 10k+ lmfao

[shy obsidian]

I WIN

...i should've saved this for the relic thing

oh well! guranteed bracelet letsgoooo

[fierce matrix]

Damn

Was gonna ask

Whats the savage drop amount

[torn kindle]

10 sands from M9S

[fierce matrix]

10???

YOU GET 8 FROM NORMAL

And 10 FROM SAVAGE???

[shy obsidian]

okay maybe I didn't miss much

how much sand do I need?

[tulip wraith]

100

[shy obsidian]

oh fuck

maybe I should have saved it...

GOD IT FEELS GOOD HAVING A FULL BLUE SIDE AGAIN

[fierce matrix]

1200 in total

The boy has got to grow

[tulip wraith]

i fucking knew it

[shy obsidian]

jesus christ

[craggy marsh]

Oh is it not a 1 time step

[fierce matrix]

It is a 1 time step

[craggy marsh]

Oh then we only need 100 good

[fierce matrix]

Huh

No

You need 1200

Why would it not be 1200 if it wasnt a 1 time step

[craggy marsh]

You need 1200 sand? Damn

[trim frost]

gerolt says "multiple batches"

[fierce matrix]

Yes, its already confirmed to be 1200

So you need 1200 across the whole step

[craggy marsh]

Damn

[fierce matrix]

Once done you can just use tomes the same way as the last 2 steps

[deft yarrow]

oh were actually constructing the little guy a new body step by step huh

[fierce matrix]

Ye

[trim frost]

5 per CE is... kinda sad

[fierce matrix]

Hes gotta get bigger and bigger

[craggy marsh]

Needs feet

[fierce matrix]

10 for m9s

:)

[trim frost]

ye i know

[craggy marsh]

How much per roulette

[trim frost]

pretty substantial from normal raids too

[deft yarrow]

cant wait for a whopping 12 for m12s

[fierce matrix]

15 from expert

[trim frost]

shrug

[fierce matrix]

8 from normal

[tulip wraith]

CEs - 5
FATEs - 3
normal raids - probably 8 universal
savage raids - probably 10 universal
leveling roulette - 20
expert roulette - 15

[craggy marsh]

Well good thing there's no reason to grind hard for these relics so doing a daily roulettes will do fine for me

[fierce matrix]

It'll prob be like 50 per day with that

Ends up being 24 days

[craggy marsh]

Ye that's fine

[tulip wraith]

running leveling again to see if daily bonus is needed

[fierce matrix]

Id assume its daily bonus

[craggy marsh]

Waited months for the next step no reason to rush to the finish

[fierce matrix]

No shot it's that much better

[fierce matrix]

I gotta rush it now so I can get all 21 relics asap

[shy obsidian]

so buy umbral clay and craft the rest?

[fierce matrix]

[tulip wraith]

yeah

or buy off mb

[craggy marsh]

Well you got until June or whenever the next relic step is

So you'll be aight

[fierce matrix]

And id like to be done earlier rather than later

Cause I have savage reclears

And then ulti dropping

If it drops

Plus thats like

[craggy marsh]

You'll def be done in a few weeks anyways

[fierce matrix]

30,000 uncapped tomes

So thatll take a bit

Not including other stuff like fishing I wanna knock out

[craggy marsh]

I'll get them all when they're poetic dump next expansion

[fierce matrix]

And using tomes for pot mats when I run out

[craggy marsh]

For now ill get my mains

[fierce matrix]

Final tier I like to get bis on all my jobs

Been doing it since ShB

[boreal pumice]

man i stayed up till 3:45 for that stupid aero shit only saw a few message procs

[fierce matrix]

[craggy marsh]

I do wish the relics were actually bis on every step and not just the final one

[fierce matrix]

Sometimes it feels like it never fucking procs

Even with surface slap

[boreal pumice]

indeed or you get the other !! fsh

[fierce matrix]

Thats kinda dumb for raiders tho tbh

[boreal pumice]

still its fun seeing the other degens at stupid o clock going fishing

[fierce matrix]

You get 4 weeks of your weapon being bis
