[lost plinth]

Oh wait remake info?

guess I do need to watch it in detail

[hardy forge]

oh i think i remember that part in the snow

emu should be around lvl 40?

i am right on the money and i didnt even look at the screenshot

[lost plinth]

also @spice thistle

ree

[spice thistle]

Let me guess

Leviathan

[spring heath]

lol

[lost plinth]

nope

stone vigil

[hardy forge]

@spice thistle are we pinging for no reason?

[lost plinth]

nah

makore just told me before i started to @ him whenever i needed instance queues

so i did

[spice thistle]

2 mage ballads

no refreshes

[lost plinth]

actually

no time

so not rn

[spice thistle]

ok

NOOOOO

Makore stop stepping on the venom

...

[spice thistle]

Also jhock

Next week is patch apparently

[spring burrow]

5.25?

[spice thistle]

Ye

Which means that probably...

[spring burrow]

OH SHIT

[spice thistle]

RELICS

[spring burrow]

RELIC WEAPONS

[spice thistle]

I hope you had done Stormblood raids

[spring burrow]

Yes sir

[spice thistle]

Ihaventkek

[spring burrow]

Did them the week it was announced

Bruh

[spice thistle]

Need lighthouse and the rest

[spring burrow]

They nerfed it too to make it easier to do

[spice thistle]

There is a math thing

Me doesn't like maths

[spring burrow]

I just went in blind lol

[spring burrow]

LOL

[lost plinth]

ha ha i expect i will know wtf people are talking about

[spice thistle]

Oh

Relic weapons are legendaries in ffxiv

You stay with them

Grind a shit ton

They will end up having coool effects and being kickass

[lost plinth]

huh

[spring heath]

And they're never made completely irrelevant, just grown upon

[lost plinth]

well i'm uhm

[spice thistle]

Yep

[lost plinth]

level 43 i think

[spice thistle]

Curtana is my favorite

It's a big ugly sword at first

Then becomes fucking Excaliburn

[spring heath]

Excaliburn lmao

[spice thistle]

Not joking

[spring heath]

I know

it's just amusing

[spice thistle]

Curtana in the down image

VS Excalibur

They are the same weapon

Enhanced to the final level

[spring heath]

Ngl I've gotten my bow to the point I like it best and it's staying there

[timber crag]

That looks like Erza Scarlet with dog ears

And brown hair

[spice thistle]

Also take this meme as a meme

[hardy forge]

old meme e.e

[spice thistle]

OK boomer

[hardy forge]

you already failed this joke once mak

i'm younger than you

you already forgot

@spice thistle

[spice thistle]

Damn it

[deft vapor]

I'm about to be

severely sorry for any enemy in BL3

that I face

[spice thistle]

Ogod

Sela pls

[deft vapor]

I got a... minor upgrade

and uh... while running around with that, from skills, I get about.. double damage.

[spice thistle]

I suppose the left one is the new

[deft vapor]

yes, checkmark = equipped

[spice thistle]

Oof

[deft vapor]

there's also this if I wanna play long-ranged instead

[spring burrow]

I forgot that borderlands went the ilvl route for weapons

[deft vapor]

ehhhh the item score is... kinda useless

[fresh osprey]

yeah - its just there to tell you if an item is an "upgrade"

[prisma flower]

why melee damage on a sniper rifle LMAO

[deft vapor]

besides telling "Anointed" gear apart from normal gear

[fresh osprey]

but it really depends on your build

melee dmg because bayonet kethcup

sometimes an enemy gets close and you melee them

[deft vapor]

if I really want to, I CAN equip a shield that'll let me yolo-run in and melee

also Melees are pretty useful since it staggers enemes (once every... idk 5 sec?)

[lost plinth]

@spice thistle you available

[spice thistle]

I'm resting a bit but yes

What did you require mine child

[hardy forge]

imagine resting

[lost plinth]

Wanted to get stone vigil done b4 raid

[spice thistle]

...

[spring heath]

Resting

like a casual

ha

[spice thistle]

Resting is not a boomer thing tyvm

[lost plinth]

ok

also I'm trying real hard to not look at the ShB opening screen cause i'm p sure i'm being spoiled

dunno what of

or when

but

Also am pleasantly surprised to learn it's not just the 3 cities

[latent rover]

wow

[lost plinth]

i didn't really see that there were other zones

[latent rover]

I just found out i've been subscribed to FF14 for maybe 3 months

possibly 5

i didn't even know i was subscribed

[lost plinth]

ok so uh

i outlevel makore

fuckin casual

[spice thistle]

This girl

[latent rover]

@spice thistle EXPLAIN THOT!

[spice thistle]

just

outleveled myself

Time to bring out the other guns

[lost plinth]

mans just

switched to another dps spec in order to flex

forgetting entirely their purpose is just to tank/heal my MSQ

tch

also uh wayward

does repertoire's chance increase with the AMOUNT of dots I have

or is it a flat 20% as long as there is a dot somewhere

tooltip seems to suggest the latter but

[latent rover]

flat 40%

[lost plinth]

seems odd that it wouldn't reward massive multidotting

oh well mine says 20 but i assume that upgrades

[latent rover]

yeah

you always want to keep both DOTS up

[lost plinth]

right so I shouldn't bother mass-multidotting THEN singing, just get something off then sing

yeah

[latent rover]

you should multi-dot

[lost plinth]

yeahyeah

but no need to do so to maximise repertoire proc

[spice thistle]

I have become edge

[latent rover]

what'd you go DK?

[spring heath]

DRK*

[spice thistle]

No

GNB

[latent rover]

that's not edge that

that

wtf

that's tech

[spice thistle]

excuse me

its a gun

and a blade

Seriously tho

Superbolide is a big fail

[latent rover]

what level you guys at?

@spice thistle let me join you guys

[spice thistle]

next one maybe

[hardy forge]

wayward wasted 5 months of playtime e.e

[latent rover]

bruh

[spice thistle]

y u do dis

[latent rover]

i must've used some sort of game time card

not sued

[spice thistle]

I can sue you for that

[latent rover]

no wonder I can find you two

[spice thistle]

are you from another crystal

[latent rover]

you're on a different world server

[spice thistle]

dah

[latent rover]

which world server are you on?

[lost plinth]

Malboro

and mak's on mateus

[latent rover]

dang can't visit you

[lost plinth]

how come?

[latent rover]

it's not on the list

[lost plinth]

Oh are you a different datacenter

[spice thistle]

I HAVE jock too

but the boy doesnt connect

[spring burrow]

I’m on Coeurl

I’ve been taking a little break though

Been playing animal crossing lol

[spice thistle]

inb4 we all carry Emu on Ruby Weapon EX

[latent rover]

I weep for I cannot join you.

[spring burrow]

Oh we can totally do that

Ruby ex is so easy

[lost plinth]

haha that assumes i end up not good

which is probably correct

[spice thistle]

Dw

I suck too

[lost plinth]

like I did my bard rotation in that instance

[spice thistle]

I am changing from

uh

Paladin to Bard for my savage static

[lost plinth]

Army's Paeon procs: zero

[spice thistle]

I feel you

[lost plinth]

Mage's Ballad resets: 7

[spice thistle]

don't worry

[lost plinth]

immediately after

[spring burrow]

Mak

[lost plinth]

on trash

[spring burrow]

Whats your raid hours?

[deft vapor]

right so uh... got another upgrade, from a mission... geez, poor bastards

[spring burrow]

My static died

[lost plinth]

i mean on bosses i don't have anything to spend 7 resets on besides cancelling into heavy shot

[spice thistle]

We still are doing the schedule

because half is eur and half is american

[lost plinth]

haha references funny

[latent rover]

just use bloodletter

[lost plinth]

Yeah I do

[spice thistle]

its a fucking god damn mess

[spring burrow]

What classes y’all nee Mak?

[lost plinth]

But surely the point is you use bloodletter as a half-GCD to go into something else

[spice thistle]

We are fulla ctually

We are going uh

[spring burrow]

Oof

[lost plinth]

like, the thing you use after bloodletter is

[latent rover]

basically.

[lost plinth]

i keep calling it cancelling into but that's just my terminology

[spice thistle]

PLD, GNB, SCH, WHM, SAM, RDM, BRD, BLM

[spring burrow]

Not a bad setup

Great utility

[spice thistle]

Considering

We had

3 fucking samurais in Ruby Weapon Ex

[latent rover]

oh dear lord

[lost plinth]

wait a sec

[spring burrow]

Dude I had 3 sams and a blm for my clear group

[lost plinth]

if there's a Fat Cat bet

and a Fatter Cat mount

[spice thistle]

ACTUALLY

WE DID TOO

[lost plinth]

...where's the fattest cat

[spice thistle]

our ruby weapon clear was

[lost plinth]

is there one

[spice thistle]

I shit you not

PLD,GNB, 2 white mages, 3 sams and one black

[spring burrow]

My god

SO WAS MINE

[spice thistle]

WE DIDN'T GET ANY LIMIT BREAKERS

[spring burrow]

LOL

[lost plinth]

oh yeah that

they glossed over limit breaks so fast

do i need to care

[spice thistle]

Actually

You do

[spring burrow]

A little yeah

[lost plinth]

k

hit me

[spice thistle]

slaps

wait

that's a child

But yeah

Simply

[spring burrow]

Limit Break is a big ass dps attack

[spice thistle]

Depends on role

For tanks is a massive protection aoe

for healers is a big ass heal or mass ress

[lost plinth]

i know conceptually what a limit break IS

but

not this game

[spice thistle]

For a bard

your limit break 3 is a long ass wide rain of arrows i think

[spring burrow]

Yes

[spice thistle]

Though tbh you would give them to the dps that has most ilvl and is physical

[spring burrow]

Bard fires arrows, Machinist summons a giant laser turret, Dancer does a dance and flower petals explode

[lost plinth]

it's not under Role actions is it surely

[spice thistle]

General

[spring burrow]

No its in general

[lost plinth]

Oh the

duty action

Wait no

I see

i need more bars soon

sigh

i already have more buttons than is comfortable

and it's oooonly gonna get worse huh

[spring burrow]

Yeah you’ll need three maybe just for abilities

[spice thistle]

You need three i think

[lost plinth]

fucking glorious

[spice thistle]

dw they are

already mapped

[lost plinth]

i might have to break out the mmo mouse i bought

and didn't feel WoW merited

[spring burrow]

Its worth it

[spice thistle]

Bar 2 is control

bar 3 is shift i think

I have my mouse mapped to lock on target

[lost plinth]

yeah i ended up sending bar 2 to shift

cause control was fucky for me

Actually duh ofc

[spice thistle]

do you play with

control?

[lost plinth]

I might bind numbers

letters rather

[spice thistle]

i just

cant play with binded letter

[spring burrow]

Yeah thats what I did

[lost plinth]

was trying to figure why this was sucking more than WoW

and that's cause I bind letters when I ran out of numbers

god that's childishly simple

sec, lemme improve my damn gameplay with one stroke...

[spring burrow]

I bound F, R, Q, E, and V

[spice thistle]

I still don't get how people bind letters instead of using S+ numbers

[lost plinth]

cause good fuckin luck doing shift inputs while moving

[spice thistle]

though tbh

i use the mouse too

MY PINKY IS VERY LONG TYVM

[lost plinth]

'bound to face target' yeah get that shit out, who cares

[spring burrow]

Also Emu dont forget you can completely exit the HUD

[hardy forge]

i think i used only 2 an a quarter

[spice thistle]

oml she is getting in character

[spring burrow]

Edit*

[hardy forge]

on my summoner/scholar

[spice thistle]

oh yes

edit your hud

[lost plinth]

yeah

[hardy forge]

2 extended bars and a quarter one to the side

[spice thistle]

I have everything on my lower part

[lost plinth]

I only moved song gauge to somewhere less obtrusive

[spice thistle]

its a big mess tho

[hardy forge]

the fuck is that ui mak

fucks sake

[spice thistle]

ok look

its a 720p display

[lost plinth]

although

help me out on this

[spice thistle]

I can't do anything else

[lost plinth]

dungeon targeting

tab targeting feels ROUGH

[hardy forge]

how the F am i supposed to know what bracket does what with that ui

[spice thistle]

wtf bracket means

[hardy forge]

section,

grouping

[spice thistle]

Ok

[spring burrow]

I’ve seen most people click target

[spice thistle]

look

[hardy forge]

aggregation

[spice thistle]

its easy

left side is shit things

[lost plinth]

oh

[spice thistle]

Right side is class changes

[lost plinth]

Yeah I think click target might just be how I go

[spice thistle]

its ez

[hardy forge]

and most of all,why is chat so big

[spice thistle]

Because im blind

[spring burrow]

Click target isnt so bad with the enemy list that appears on the side

[spice thistle]

REST IN PEACE DISCORD MOBILE

[deft vapor]

its a 720p display
you god damn caveman

[spice thistle]

Actually

[lost plinth]

Oh wait you click THAT?

[spice thistle]

It's because I RP

[lost plinth]

that makes sense

[hardy forge]

ye tab targeting can screw you over HARD

from my paladin tank days

[spice thistle]

you can also

[spring burrow]

Tab Target fucking sucks in this game

[spice thistle]

configure your mouse

to lower down targets for enemies and allies

onestly though

[lost plinth]

Also

[spice thistle]

the only tab targeting i loved was pre-legion tab targeting

[lost plinth]

Do moves that 'hit' twice

count as single attack for Barrage

[spring burrow]

Yes

Thats just the animation

[lost plinth]

gucci

yeah

thought so

[spice thistle]

YOU SHOULD DO THAT ONLY WITH STRAIGHT SHOT

[spring burrow]

No no, they meant the animation

[hardy forge]

i remember in wow they fixed tabtargeting to choose closest enemy before NH

xd

[spring burrow]

Since it looks like we shoot multiple barrages

[lost plinth]

barrage only into straight shot?

ok

also like how the fuck i get down here

[spring burrow]

You walk down

[spice thistle]

The map is a bit fucky

[lost plinth]

scratch, found the way

yep

also right

mob detection

idk what the symbol next to their names even ARE they so small, I expect that shows hostility

and... it's actually based on the way they're facing, isn't it?

[spring burrow]

The blue, yellow, orange, and red dots?

Thats the threat gauge

Red means you have aggro, yellow and orange means you’re close to getting aggro, blue means youre safe

[lost plinth]

ri-iight but on unengaged mobs

[hardy forge]

isnt there an extended bars setting,i dont remember my bars looking like emu's

[lost plinth]

like on this idiot

[spring burrow]

Oh that means its passive

[lost plinth]

right yeah

THOSE

they're much too small for me to interpret

[spring burrow]

Blue is passive, red is attack in sight

[lost plinth]

is there a yellow

[spice thistle]

yellow with triangle?

[lost plinth]

wait no

[spring burrow]

Yellow means elite I think?

Usually those will be max level of the xpac zone its in

So 50, 60, 70, or 80

[lost plinth]

also

i'm getting quite close to unlocking the other jobs i wanted to play

[latent rover]

this is what my setup looks like regarding my song gauge

[lost plinth]

which'd be samurai machinist astro

[hardy forge]

4 bars??

[lost plinth]

would i be best just

saving them til later

cause I doubt I can keep all of them fresh leveled

[hardy forge]

ah i see one bar is just instruments

[lost plinth]

that top bar

yeah

lol

[latent rover]

yeah

[lost plinth]

i just had trumpet keybound but once I found I couldn't play in instances it got less funny

[spice thistle]

I wanted to play megalovania in raids

[hardy forge]

i think i had my limit gauge under the party UI,and my hp/xp bar OVER the skills,and the skills where the xp bar is

[lost plinth]

also consider my sadness when I skim-read Repelling Shot and thought I got Disengage

only to find it's just a much more scuffed disengage

also is it worth asking why Limsa has fuckoff aether crystals jammed in it

[spice thistle]

because limsa bad

[lost plinth]

but like rly

cause if you mean to tell me that's from the Calamity

and that the calamity didn't simply glass the whole place

[spring burrow]

The calamity did this to other places too

[lost plinth]

yes but like

[spring burrow]

Limsa got it bad cause the raid takes place there

[lost plinth]

surely the place was just fucking leveled

[spring burrow]

Or La Noscea

[spice thistle]

Ah yes

[spring burrow]

Aether logic

[spice thistle]

I forgot

The binding coils of Bahamut are actually below la Noscea

Basically

It's the fault of bahamut

everything

[spring burrow]

And a certain 1.0 character

[spice thistle]

How many times do we have to teach you this lessson old man

[lost plinth]

like if you mean to tell me

all this did was jam a few pretty spikes in the top

are we on a case of SERIOUS artistic license here

[spice thistle]

Emu

You ahve to understand that

Between that

and 2.0

are like 5 years

[lost plinth]

yes but

if it WAS leveled

why would you keep the spikes rammed in it

like they're barely artistically positioned

[spice thistle]

You would make a big explosion if you manipulate aether spikes

[lost plinth]

Yes but

[spice thistle]

BUT

EMU

[lost plinth]

Surely it was rebuilt from the literal ground

[spice thistle]

KEEP PLAYING THE GAME

[lost plinth]

Reeee

[spring burrow]

Theres a lot of explaining

[lost plinth]

fuckin' better be

[spring burrow]

You’ll see more zones like that and they explain

[spice thistle]

Honestly tho why Viera have so short armor

[lost plinth]

okay now I've spent a week knowing autorun is R

despite my wow autorun being insert

[spice thistle]

Trust me whenever I go back to wow

it feels weird

[lost plinth]

now I've rebound it to WoW-ish bindings

It wouldn't be so bad if my WoW R wasn't fucking essence

think I might move head graze off my usual interrupt button

since it seems less useful than i anticipated

[spice thistle]

Eh

there aren't a lot of interrupt mechanics in endgame

[spring burrow]

Not right now its not

Endgame its much more important

[spice thistle]

but whenever an interrupt mechanic comes up

its either

wipe or do it

[spring burrow]

Especially since not ever class has an interrupt. Just tanks and ranged physical dps

[lost plinth]

right

so don't have it as handy as I do in WoW

but

have it bound

[spice thistle]

You know yesterday i went back to wow for a single normal

and i forgot dbm existed

I turned it off just to try it

and

well

[lost plinth]

never used dbm lmao

[spice thistle]

just deleted it

I see no real reason to have it

[lost plinth]

it's almost dizzying to see how ffxiv players do EXACTLY WHAT I'VE DONE FOR YEARS

which is

not use helper addon

[spice thistle]

My friends make fun of WoW raiders because they use DBM XD

[lost plinth]

i never figured why people swear by it so much

just play the game

[spring burrow]

Yeah now that I’ve been playing other mmos, wow having an addon that just tells you what mechanics do and how to dodge it seems very smoothbrain

[spice thistle]

still it needs an rp addon

[spring burrow]

14? Ehh I think its more of trp spoiled people

[spice thistle]

i mean

it already does a shit ton with the surnames

and the emotes

[spring burrow]

Ye

Like wow seems barebones in terms of rp when it needs an addon to make it more convenient

Especially with the lack of emotes

So many /e and idle animations

[hardy forge]

i mean wow has been making almost all mechanics in raids

visible/understandable

even without dbm

[spice thistle]

Meanwhile FFXIV's stack up indicator

Its a big ass arrow

well

Arrows

lterally say

"STACK BEFORE THE EXPLOSION HAPPENS"

[hardy forge]

idk a big arrow over someone's head could be understood as "a big laserblast is going to hit here gtfo "

[spice thistle]

Or if you are a troll

pst

go near the blackmage

[lost plinth]

alright

back to it

Also asked earlier but got washed out

Since I'm very near to unlocking the alt jobs I want

Would it be best to ignore and focus on one?

Cause I doubt I can keep all of them equally leveled

[spring burrow]

yeah no just focus on one

also machinist and AST are still a ways away for you

AFter you beat the quests up to 50, you have 100 post 50 quests

[hardy forge]

the coils quests? xD

[lost plinth]

oh

welp

[spring burrow]

no

the 100 quests of hell

[hardy forge]

the "bingbong" quest series?

where you go someplace then back to mor'dhona(i think?)

then repeat that 100 times

[spring burrow]

yep

[hardy forge]

yikes already did it on my summoner

[spring burrow]

the worst part of the game

[hardy forge]

think i even went as far as getting the PLD/SMN/SCH/BLM artifact weapons to rank 2

since i was locked to lvl 50 with the twitch prime free month and no expacs

i really dont like how the artifact weapons become basically untextured lighthouse at max lvl

[spring burrow]

I've only done one relic quest

I got the machinist one fully upgraded

[hardy forge]

i heard there's one relic per expansion?

[spring burrow]

yep

[lost plinth]

Harpbow is sick so I will probably get that

however

i usually go in for practicality rather than pomp on weapons

[spring burrow]

the ones in stormblood are locked behind the worst side content in the game though

eureka

[hardy forge]

when i saw "you need random drops from random spawning world events" i was like

NOPE

[spring burrow]

The ARR ones are awful

[hardy forge]

so i stopped at rank 2

[spring burrow]

The HW ones aren't so bad

Shadowbringer's weapons are coming soon so hopefully they aren't too bad

I really like my machinist relic

[hardy forge]

yeah see,i really dont like how it just becomes a lighting texture

when fully upgraded

what does the design/flavor of the weapon all intricate do

[spring burrow]

yeah its a little excessive

[hardy forge]

when it's just LIGHTHOUSE

[lost plinth]

i mean i don't really know what's out there to have

[spring burrow]

the gun itself looks the same, but when you unsheath it the glow effect appears over the barrel

[hardy forge]

i can already see myself getting distracted midbossfight

by the glow

xd

[lost plinth]

all i know is I need anemos hat for glamour

[spring burrow]

anemos hat is probably super cheap on the market board

unless its like a specific one

[lost plinth]

Storyteller's?

think you misunderstand me - is that not the like, final upgrade from this Eureka thing

[spring burrow]

oh

that

[spice thistle]

rip you

but if you want it

go for it

eurekan armor is pretty

[spring burrow]

theres a set called the anemos set thats what confused me lol

[spice thistle]

Its Eureka Anemos

[lost plinth]

hat https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/item/3899c41fbae

this is what i require

[spring burrow]

oh the fully upgraded bard hat ok

yeah thats eureka farm

[lost plinth]

wonderful

at least it's only one thing

..?

[spring burrow]

Honestly idk how eureka works. I have yet to even unlock it

[lost plinth]

ah

[spice thistle]

There has to be a guide

[spring burrow]

I'm sure there is

[lost plinth]

hm

if I want a glamour with a specific dye

do I need to apply dye BEFORE putting it in the dresser

[spice thistle]

Yep

[lost plinth]

ri-iight

[spring burrow]

unless you make a glamour plate

then you just dye the item after applying it to the plate

[spice thistle]

Reee

this leveling

I want to buy a boost but fuck the exchange

[lost plinth]

just cause i outleveled you...

[spice thistle]

not really

[lost plinth]

yeah, yeah...

[spice thistle]

Trust me emu

when you run out of msq

it gets very bad

[timber crag]

What did the ocean say to the other ocean?

[spice thistle]

?

[lost plinth]

nothing it waved

be original

[timber crag]

I sea what you did there

Are you shore I wasn't original though? @lost plinth

[spice thistle]

Lyo please

[timber crag]

What?

[spice thistle]

Just

[spring burrow]

...

[spice thistle]

I already had enough dad jokes in my FC and

fucking

[timber crag]

Oh come on, don't be a beach about it

[lost plinth]

ok i have learned why so many people have rabbit ears

there really is a bunny girl race huh

[spring burrow]

LOL

[timber crag]

You know I never get tide of these jokes

[spice thistle]

Gdi Emu

[spring burrow]

The Viera yes

[spice thistle]

But i do goodbye

also yes

[lost plinth]

i'm so disappointed

[spice thistle]

The Viera

or Viis

[spice thistle]

dissapointed child

[lost plinth]

hat child is such a mood

always

[timber crag]

She kinda looks like D.Va?

[spice thistle]

I wonder whats going to happen when hat child meets hildiboy

[timber crag]

What the hecckkkkque?

The face shape is almost a perfect fit

Match

Uh

Ingrish

[spice thistle]

I think you are the only one that thinks that Lyo...I don't see anything that looks like D.va

[lost plinth]

the facepaint-things help i suspect

[timber crag]

She has the same jawline and cheek shape

[spice thistle]

Big ol shrug

[outer remnant]

She's just Asian I guess and yeah the face paint indeed does it

[spring burrow]

I

[spice thistle]

Don't even

[spring burrow]

What

[spice thistle]

Miqo'te aren't...

...

Hah

@lost plinth someone called you a weeb

[lost plinth]

i don't know what hat child is

i just pressed randomise a bunch

[spring burrow]

they cat people race

[spice thistle]

Miqo'te aren't supposed to be asians

[spring burrow]

they ain't asian

[spice thistle]

There is a race that is supposed to resemble them

the good ol Au ra

[outer remnant]

Yeah you guys right, is that from FFXIV ? If so I've never played that game

[lost plinth]

mm

[spice thistle]

it is

[spring burrow]

yes

[timber crag]

My main is pretty much Tifa 😅

[outer remnant]

I got too accustomed with BDO where everybody is Korean as fuck

[timber crag]

BDO main lel

[spice thistle]

I mean you are not wrong

FFXIV is a bit anime

a bit

Also Emu

I want to challenge you to hats

[outer remnant]

But BDO is more like a technical demo for game graphics rather than a game

To me at least

Also a huge cash grab but that's besides the point

[spice thistle]

hat

[timber crag]

Game graphics. Character customization. Combat

[spice thistle]

Eh

Not really

[timber crag]

The only thing I feel it fails at is questing and max level content

[spice thistle]

BDO fails in character customization because it locks things with gender

[spring burrow]

^

[lost plinth]

that's a shit awful hat mak

[timber crag]

Oof xD

[lost plinth]

what planet are you on

[spring burrow]

that is my biggest complaint with that game

[outer remnant]

Does it really tho

[spice thistle]

oof

[spring burrow]

and of course the lack of content

[spice thistle]

I agree with Space

[lost plinth]

dumbass hat-tryhardin upside-down-baking-tin lookin

[spice thistle]

its just a big ol technical demo for graphics

whoa calm down child

its just a prank bruh

[timber crag]

How does my main look?

[outer remnant]

Yeah it feels like they took the graphics and then tried to add rpg content but

[spice thistle]

Jhock help

the child has a bow

[outer remnant]

It's a mess really, the optimization is ughh

[spring burrow]

Huh?

[outer remnant]

My GPU almost died on BDO

Heats up faster than an elderly person with covid-19

[spice thistle]

One thing I'd love from WoW on FFXIV

Is--

[timber crag]

GCD?

[spice thistle]

Man not that kind of jokes here

What? Nah

The GCD is actually very good when you get used to it

[timber crag]

Kalec?

Rhonin?

[spice thistle]

What the fuck are you on

[timber crag]

Khadgar?

[spice thistle]

Why not stop guessing and let me finish

[timber crag]

Okay

[spice thistle]

It's the ability to exit an instance for a few minutes to repair and then go back

[timber crag]

Magni?

[spice thistle]

Because when you get broken you are fucked

given, i shoudln't have my gear broken at all but

[spring burrow]

Of youre an omnicrafter you can repair mid instance

[timber crag]

Jeeves is the embodiment of joy

[spice thistle]

modefocker

i need to get all my crafters

Aha!

[outer remnant]

That's a runescape-looking hat

If I've ever seen one

[timber crag]

That's a Khadgar looking hat

[spice thistle]

Take that Emu

Khadgar doesn't have a hat

Lyo im going to be real with you

[timber crag]

How do you know?

[spice thistle]

Are you feeling okay?

[outer remnant]

You look like you're gonna kill chickens in lumbridge with that hat on

[spice thistle]

You have been acting weird all the whole day...For a record

[timber crag]

It's 2:18 AM and I can't sleep 😁

[spice thistle]

Ah that explains it

[timber crag]

I'm high on tachycardia and Red Bull

[spice thistle]

Just breathe in and try to calm down

[timber crag]

Just tryina finish this world quest

[outer remnant]

Don't drink red bull at 2AM

[spice thistle]

Don't drink red bull at all*

[outer remnant]

Yeah caffeine addiction sucks

[timber crag]

Telling me that is muda

[spice thistle]

If you need high amounts of caffeine just drink coffe

[outer remnant]

Also personnal opinion but I DESPISE people who can't function without their coffee

[spice thistle]

Honestly

I don't despise but

[timber crag]

Honestly, I barely use coffee at all

[spice thistle]

Don't understand why cant some people function without caffeine

[outer remnant]

Imagine if it was the same for harder drugs, guy coming in to work "dude I haven't had my meth hit this morning" and whipping his pipe out

[timber crag]

But I just got a break from work and I'm taking my time off

[spring burrow]

I drink coffee but its more for the taste

[spice thistle]

I drink it with milk and some cookies

[outer remnant]

I don't drink it same for alcohol it's freaking yuck

[spice thistle]

or bread

Don't smoke or drink alcohol either

I have done wine but only if it's very good

[outer remnant]

I smoke tho, not just tobacco

[timber crag]

I'm drinking it to help me stay awake because I was awake all day and had to finish some things

So, so glad I got a break due to this virus outbreak

[spice thistle]

I was surprised that I didn't have procs on Mage's Ballad

turns out

i didn't have the dots

brb uninstalling computer

[spring burrow]

Mak

bruh

[spice thistle]

Ok listen

[timber crag]

Lyo.exe has stopped working.

[spice thistle]

I ahve been running dungeons all the day

[spring burrow]

Lol

[spice thistle]

I need to get bard to 80 before next week and geared for statics

[spring burrow]

My god man

[timber crag]

Something's shutting down my program

[spice thistle]

Im level 45

[spring burrow]

[timber crag]

Wa-

Ri
Gh
T
Back

[lost plinth]

ffs

[spring burrow]

Alphinaud thats uhhh

[spice thistle]

Lyo stop it, really, if you are going to sleep just do it silently

[spring burrow]

not a good pose

[spice thistle]

You all want to see what you want to see

My boy is just pointing to the front

Bruh

really

[spring burrow]

we have the same squadmates

they aren't all assigned at base are they?

[spring heath]

yeah

first three are always the same ones

my main has an all miqo squad now

[lost plinth]

what i wanna know

is sure alphinaud let's get to business but

you happen to forget the number one rule of storytelling of 'if there's no corpse, they're not dead'

and forget how it applies to, oh, all of the main characters from the Scions

like

priorities bud

[spring burrow]

:)

[spice thistle]

I don't remember what --

Ah yeah

I forgot for a bit

[lost plinth]

like bruh it's plain asf they ain't all dead

i just expected that plotline uh

BEFORE

[outer remnant]

you happen to forget the number one rule of storytelling of 'if there's no corpse, they're not dead'
that's a rule of quantum physics also I'm pretty sure

[spice thistle]

Alphinaud has a lots of mistakes

Like

[lost plinth]

like his fuckin dress sense

dear lord

[spice thistle]

All part 1 is him commiting mistakes

[spring burrow]

he gets a better outfit later

[spice thistle]

Because he is so fed up on being Eorzea's savior

[spring burrow]

honestly story in ARR is ehhh

[spice thistle]

Just wait after Post ARR

That fucking reality check

[spring burrow]

Heavensward is much much better with storytelling

that too

[spice thistle]

But yeah

Before you have to advance to

Uh

Post ARR

I'll carry you to coils of bahamut first

So you can have more story about the twins

And then

Crystal Tower

So you can meet the best character in the game and I'll kill anyone that says otherwise

[lost plinth]

not thancred?

wow

[spice thistle]

Motherfucker

Get back to level

[spring burrow]

I have stuff to say about thancred

but its all shadowbringers spoilers

cause tbh I forgot about him a lot from arr-stb

[spice thistle]

What is this even

[spring burrow]

apart from his stuff with Minfilia

[lost plinth]

Oh no it's all going time loopy isn't it

[spring burrow]

nah time travel isn't really in the main story thank god

[spice thistle]

...

stares to Jhock

[lost plinth]

i just

[spice thistle]

Glares actually

Listen

Alexander is a good boy

[lost plinth]

had the cutscene where hat child gives the goggles to Cid

like

[spring burrow]

He ain't main story though

I'm talking about msq

[spice thistle]

Ah

[lost plinth]

how the fuck tho

[spring burrow]

I didnt forget my boy Alexander

[lost plinth]

did i miss something

[spice thistle]

Oh Emu

[lost plinth]

like

why is hat child not surprised

[spice thistle]

Oh

that's a massive oof from developers

[lost plinth]

Oh wait

don't tell me

that makes sense if you played 1.0

[spice thistle]

Yep

[spring burrow]

yes

[lost plinth]

and is a plothole if you didn't

right

ok

[spice thistle]

Yep

[spring burrow]

Cid was in 1.0

[spice thistle]

You played with Cid in 1.0

So yes

Massive oof

It should be different but

[spring burrow]

At least when its relevant they mention 1.0 stuff

[lost plinth]

hm

need to do instance

but is late

[spring burrow]

And then theres ruby weapon

[lost plinth]

tomorrow probabl

[spice thistle]

Which instance?

Ah

DAH

Of course

Garuda

come Emu

[spring burrow]

Garuda yes

wait wait lemme join

[spice thistle]

I'll give you an unsync party

[lost plinth]

ughhh

ok

relaunching

[spring burrow]

we'll like two shot her

[spice thistle]

you online even khock

...

Jhock*

[spring burrow]

logging on now

[lost plinth]

likewise

in queue

[spice thistle]

wait

Marboro has a queue

[lost plinth]

occasionally

only of a dozen

doesn't take 10sec really

[spring burrow]

In a loading screen

[spice thistle]

i don't even

the bullying starts

[spring burrow]

lol

[prisma flower]

daily reminder to avoid people.

[lost plinth]

i keep expecting after every single cutscene sequence to see Yda and Papalymo come round the corner like 'sup fuckers thanks for waiting'

[spring burrow]

lol they be like that

also Mak and Emu do any of you want the bread emote?

My friend got an extra

[spring heath]

👀

[spring burrow]

Do you want it Wolf?

[spring heath]

If they don't, since they're actively playing right now

They should get priority

[spice thistle]

Give it to the rookie

[spring burrow]

ok

Guess we'll have to wait then if Emu is gonna head to bed

[lost plinth]

sigh i'm not logging back on but yes

sure

can you mail it to me or something

[spring heath]

It's a code you'll put in later

through mogstation

[lost plinth]

ah

i guess DM me then, idk

i've turned in for tonight tho

[spring burrow]

No no the bread emote is from ishgard

We can do it tomorrow. Its not super important

[lost plinth]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[spring heath]

oohhhh

my bad

[lost plinth]

also I checked market board and I had plenty to buy the two hats I wanted for later

[spring burrow]

noice

[lost plinth]

i've set them to plates, even though I can't use them

I do have designs for the final flashy glamours but i have grown quite attached to basic brown hat child

might keep the glamour plate of it

since mak seems to vary between looking like a tank and looking like a street criminal I expect they do similar

[spring heath]

lol

[spring burrow]

lol

[lost plinth]

will probably go back and check the wishlist for anything else that's crafted and look at market board again

since i'm in triple figures now and have literally nothing else to do with the money

besides teleport for some idiot's stupid quest

[spring burrow]

lol yeah

[lost plinth]

i think despite hat child's eye colour being one of the most smooth-brained design choices I've ever made, it's grown on me

[spring burrow]

hat child got two different colors right?

[lost plinth]

mm

[spring burrow]

my boi does too

[lost plinth]

I was trying to decide between orange and purple

Looked at the sidebar and saw the bit saying seekers tend to be heterochromic

whynotboth.gif

[spring burrow]

Stonks

[lost plinth]

Also while I was slightly torn about picking miqo'te and betraying my self-imposed 'don't go full anime' meter

i am reassured at least i would have had the standards to not pick viera

[spring burrow]

yeah viera/au'ra are more anime

[lost plinth]

it's like an exponentially increasing severity curve as you work down

Y'know I don't actually know what would've been a worse truth

-Everybody glamours rabbit ears (what i assumed til today)

-Bunnygirl race exists

[spring burrow]

either or

[lost plinth]

so anyway hat child now possesses all the infinity stones

basically red-carded Garuda for cheating

[spring burrow]

she can now thanos snap

[lost plinth]

and then thanos robot appeared

and dunked on literally everything i've done to this point

Also

[spring burrow]

Pretty much

[lost plinth]

right

what is it with Garuda and unapologetically tits-based camera angles

[spring burrow]

Thats Garuda

She thicc

[lost plinth]

i mean i guess

[spring burrow]

And evene the devs dont question it

[lost plinth]

the devs added viera i'm not surprised in the slightest

[spring burrow]

her other appearance later is just bigger

[lost plinth]

...bigger

[spring burrow]

same with the ff15 garuda from the crossover

[lost plinth]

dunno bout that

also hold up

[spring burrow]

oh wait

15 garuda a toothpick

[lost plinth]

if hat child has all the infinity stones, aren't we short a primal

at least one

Or were they not actually tied to primals

just things of convenient plot

[spring burrow]

leviathin leviathin save us! leviathin leviathin endless

Actually Levi is post 50 stuff iirc

[lost plinth]

like bruh i played midgar with hazards on I recognise some of these

[spring burrow]

yeah a lot of the primals are just reoccurring final fantasy enemies

[lost plinth]

i know FF has recurring moogles, chocobo, and primals
