and yes i could have done this for the SMN weapon instead but
ehhh i worked too hard on the dragonwing glam
I have enough materials for 2 more weapons.
I don't think they are already adding a step this next patch right?
I should check
It's in 6,55 so not right away
... oh yeah i can just buy them and wait
but like
inventory
Plus I would have done RPR but since I have the Avatar Scythe it'd be pointless until 6.55 anyway
(650 vs. 640 ILVL)
I should buy the 2nd step of the BLM weapon since it's the only one I'm one step behind with
Whenever I have 1.5k I just buy 3 materials
And overtime I got them all
I never really went out of my way to farm them
I did like, a month of hardcore farming to get all of the SHB relic weapons when it was current, this expansion I'm keeping up to date just by doing other stuff and making sure I'm never capping my tomestones
I know people are disappointed at the lack of "challenge" of earning the weapons because it gives a reason to log in but ehhh
Just do Ultimates instead, lmao
It's a different kind of grind
Getting the weapons wasn't difficult
It was time consuming but you could do it alone
To do Ultimate you have to coordinate with 7 other people
Which isn't analoguous
iahhh, that's fair

That's an interesting look for mnk gear...
(anabaseios gear)
And Purgatory, which gives tanks those big flamin' circles, do NOT have the circle for monks 
Neat but not quite the same, ya know
MORE PROOF OF EVIL
LMAO
I think Maiming gear is the only other one that gets the flaming circle
so... Dragoon and Reaper, lol
(can we get another class for Scouting next expansion pls ty)
THERE'S ANOTHER MONK IN THIS RAID
I usually find myself as the only one
maybe i'm biased because I see more RPRs when I play RPR
RPR have that shiny newness till
and the sweet benefit of starting at 70
(Why I started the class since I needed a Phys Melee DPS for Role Quests)
CATMONK
mine's cooler
I definitely see this better as a SAM with a scimitar looking glam on the katana
Is the arm thing part of the glove or the chest? Because I definitely can see that bit work in a MNk glam
I think chest
uh i'dd have to go back and check, I think arm?
Checked, part of the chest
Too bad it's not dyable unless you obtain the savage version
Still, white looks good
Yeah I can see this chestpiece work for a good MNK glam for sure, the open arms are monk-y enough and the crystals in the back are also kinda reminescent of the thingies sometimes high fantasy monk have floating behind their backs or around them.
IDk what they are called
Can't see what's part of the chest if you also put on pants
Ahh
Like this one, tell me where the chest ends and the leg begins?
You can't, none can

This is only the chest btw, I love how well layered it works in the mix

gen, look, its not that im judging you, but between this and reaper glam im startin to think your taste in melee dps glams is "hot blacksmith", which prompts a question of what your actual blacksmith glam is
on the other end of the spectrum hc apparently decided "monk" means "modern day punk deliquent", which while not my taste is fair enough 
i like night backlogs about glams they're fun to catch up on
Ok here is the problem, there are 19 classes (not counting BLU) and 20 glamur plates, as a result, my gatherers all share a glam, and all my crafters share a glam, because it'd be too much a pain to do otherwise
Also why that looks like blacksmith to you? I get the RPR one, that one I agree
just add another row this is inhumane
i dont know, it does!
That whole outfit screams fire hazard
the layered skirt with nakey top, maybe?
My idea with it, is wild Samurai that abandoned civilization, so he still has his skirt thingy and the fancy hat, but the rest of the outfits is the remaining of the top that hang around or strips of cloth wrapped around the arms and all that.
The real reckoning will be if Dawntrail comes, with 2 new classes and no new plates.
21 classes and 20 plates isn't acceptable.
surely they'll add another row then. 30 plates shouldn't be too hard to implement. hopefully
They are kinda stretching that system already, but they need to add more for sure
or they might do some changes to the whole system?
since double dyes will be a thing
Honestly they should just scrap it and redo it better if at all possbile, the system is just strictly inferior ro the WoW transmog system, but we get what we can.
gods im so excited for double dyes i hope thatll b applicable to old gear too n not just dt-only
They said that they plan to update all the gears with two channels dyes

But probably wont come right away on the whole gear, they'll do it in chunks
This is possible because they are updating the gear with the new models and new material
So since they already have to look at it and mess with the models, it probably doesn't cost as much to also add support for 2 dyes while they are at it
that's fair
i just want to dye the tie on my scholar glam red to complete the phoenix look 
i must say i really like the "glove" part. i know its attached to the chest, but they look cool
Agreed, it's a large part as to why I like that piece so much
It's just a stopgap glam until I can get class gear or something
So what's the easiest/fastest way to get a weapon at 90? I still seem to have some 560 weapons 
Depends if you have Hildibrand quests done.
I only just started the first ones last night 
Then you can buy Diadochos weapons from the marketboard. Preferrably at high quality.
You could also use Tomestones of Causality to buy a Lunar Envoy weapon if I recall
Players who recently reached level 89 - 90 should collect Artifact Weapons and Artifact Armor (both item level 560) for free. The Last Accessories (item level 560) drop from three dungeons: Dungeon (spoilers), but these do not need to be "farmed" to proceed with further upgrades.
Current uncapped Tomestone gear (Allagan Tomestone of Causality Allagan Tomestone of Causality): Lunar Envoy's Weapons, Lunar Envoy's Armor, and Lunar Envoy's Accessories (item level 620)
You can pick up Artifact Gear in Old Sharlyan
but like if you already have that then Tomestones, baybeee (and Diadochos but like those are expensive)
Don't forget that weapons also require a special Tomestone that you can obtain by doing raids.
I swore that was a different one
Like augmentation
Agh fuck they do
The fucking wiki doesn't fucking say that
It does, in the table below.
Only when going on the page, I was looking at the this https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Level_90_Gear_Guide
Yes. Read the table, not just the summary.
diadochos is the way to go then if you have the M O N E Y

or crafting skill but that's a whole different kettle of fish
There are separate tables for weapons, gear, and accessories, because their sources tend to differ from one another.
Yeah i saw that special tomestone thing requires to do a savage raid or something? 
Though doing P6S does drop one without having to exchange the swords from P8
(But since P8 gives you a sword for finishing it automatically regardless of the other loot, you really don't need to bother with P6S)
Again
Either P6S or four runs of P8 
also the Tomestone in P6S is loot you'd need to roll on 
is the p8 not weekly atm?
(I think the intent was that doing P6S means you can just get the Lunar Envoy without having to wait for weeklies)
no, P9-12 are
oh duh
and that'll probably be only the case until 6.5
I didn't grind P5-8 for days for Abyssos armor for nothing
FF Weekly would like to share a red Alphi — we mean Alisaie — appreciation post for Younger Sister Day! 🙏 https://t.co/oFJk1rxiKP
Red Alphi

You exchange 4 tokens you get by doing p8s for one at the vendor
It also drops in savage raids but it's not the only way to get it
Regular P8*
the utter disrespect....
would be funnier if they posted Alphinaud instead

It is possible to solo Thordan EX as a RPR
not recommended
EX Zurvan tho is very much recommended
I completely skipped his ADD phase 
be me
doing raid
tank fails mechanic so i have to quickly go from Off to Main tank
tries to use mouse rather than provoke keybind
No prizes for guessing what happened
It wasn't too bad because the boss was at like 5% health anyway but since you can't cancel the tank LB... 
you cant what 
Ye gods, this is more terrifying than the t-1000
YOU MUST DO THE HILDIBRAND QUESTS

or if what i'm seeing is correct
you're redeeming yourself for any past misdemeanours
i remember i thought the quests a bit too silly at first but nowadays every few days i go "i need some levity in my ff14 life yet there is only trauma i miss my darling buddy pal hildy"
:3
I am doing them, and I just went to youtube to screenshot it rather than finding the book in a room
Also dear god Hildi's faces 
Okay, good
puts gun down
pefect use of that emote
Someone's gotta clean up this mess
I love how the WoL just has a morbid curiosity the whole time

DPS struggles
I'm pretty sure you could solo it
i'm queued up as my 57 sam for the smidgen of xp 
for my 90 it's what, unsynched ?
ah unrestricted
"Duty Complete!"
i think you reached an understanding
the understanding that Gilgamesh will POUND YOU SILLAH
.. the fact that Gilgamesh is only VA'd in ARR is an absolute travesty
I mean that 100%
I feal like i've heard his VA in some anime
oh right you play in JP
if i could be bothered I'd log in and do a run of BotBB so I could show you the English VAing
he's just
like it's peak cheesy VAing and I wish they brought his VA back, even if it was ARR quality acting
IT'S PERFECT FOR A MEME LIKE HIM
BTW as bringi said there's no Hildi in ShB so
You have ARR, HW, SB and then EW Hildibrand quests
and well
the payoff to there being no ShB Hildi quests is worth it imo, lmao
https://youtu.be/EoE7t-wh2vQ?si=NA1GGxvt3-biKLtj&t=273 I'd say the JP voice is even more meme-y

Okay, I'll concede that that his "NOT! Ha, I lied!" is memetastic
i mean
I think Kiryu would run into battle with Nugget by his side if things allowed
(Note that i've yet to play any yakuza game)
Fun Fact, the Hildy quests were originally a way for the animators to test their limits with the game engine
Testing the limits of the faces, more like
It's why they are all so crazy and the expressions tend to be so exaggerated, they were a way to see how far they could push the game
And then knowing what they could do leads to the better animation quality in later expansions

I KNEW IT
average healer
screaming screaming screaming
||ardbert rlly said "you know, i think i havent been angsty enough, lemme fix that"||
The WoL is a special cookie.
"hmm, the player had a bit too much joy and fun"
"are you sure about that, it seemed pretty bad to me already-"
"yep. lets throw some dying of the masses to make sure our players never feel joy ever again"
ShB moods.
i miss hildy
hurray, ||captain bunny lives!|| ... for now

so anyway time for murder-
they really said ||okay how do we speedrun vauthry to reach asahi levels of assholery. oh i know, propaganda in the middle of orchestrated tragedy!||
That bit immediatly creates such a visceral reponse
You just done ||crying at Cpt Bunny voice crack and here comes this asshole||
something something mold sad into something productive, like murderous intent
thank you for teachin me that ff14
ugh, noone invited you
go away ||emet||

||emet throws one look at than and is like "mmmmm i sense some 🎶 dramaaaaa"||

oh?
oooooooOOOooOOOooooh
now that sounds like a downright treasure trove of interestin stuff if i ever get to meet this npc
alright, that's a good stoppin point for now i think. duty roulette takes ages so two quests today it is 
NOOOO
average portrait
Truly, glorious names

Oh, you were asking what my scythe was? Or someone was
bro watch out he's going to get hit by truck kun
he does like kidnappin ppl
even when we were IN THE MIDDLE OF SOMETHING waves frantically at the war with the empire
it's funny because I'm just imagining the final boss of the NieR raids having a particular attack that just launches you out of the arena if you get hit by it
it's very well telegraphed but I tabbed into Discord so

tabs out for a second
why am i flying?
why am i dead?
Man even right after reset queuing as a DPS is suffering
which is why u do tribe quests in the meantime
"I AM GOING TO KILL YOU.
AND THEN.
KILL YOU AGAIN."
Erik: A watered-down explanation, but adequate for one of your mental prowess, I believe. Mine own wife never had the patience for such things either, nor my passion. She cursed me and my work, took our children, and returned to Ala Mhigo...
Your wife left you?
GOOD, THAT'S HILARIOUS
I LAUGH AT YOUR MISFORTUNE
BECAUSE I AM A SIMPLE MONK BRAIN AND THAT IS ALL I KNOW
i did not anticipate you dislikin erik this much
i figured you'd get intelligence insults all the time in war questline...
Surprisingly, no
more about the war raging within and stopping your mentor from Commiting Murder
i suddenly realize monk is akin to how i assume new dragoon players feel in a sense that doin it "later" than the intended timeframe in the story creates some cognitive dissonance
mnk leans heavily into ala mhigo's subjugation at some points, yet if you play this class post stormblood it just, doesnt leave as much impact
80 GNB
and what do i get for hitting the original cap with GNB?
... an upgrade to one of my OGCDs...

Don't get me wrong, a 720 potency attack is great but
man Warrior got like, the same thing ig
More important tho
THE REUNION QUEST
... after chores

🇫
WAIT
Gotta get the level 80 gear
well, i do have BIS tank gear for ShB but i mean
sword + the Job Quest gear
Damn now that's what we call EDGY
Keeping the Appointed glam but the Lion Sword is staying as my new gunblade
Heh, this quest is just meeting up with all your old clients to get info about a second hrothgar with a gunblade
It's just nice to see the old clients again
annnd one of the people we helped died in their sleep a few days after we helped them :c
I wanted to see them one last time but, I suppose he was very ill
This game pulled the fuckin' found family shit on me i can't
Radovan is too pure for this world 
he would rather turn his back on his species that survived than lose Sophie agh ny cold dead heart
am i being called out for doing Duty Roulette daily
Yes
Perfect, we get away from Lyse, and then watch her die from the war since we can’t save her
Sounds like truck-kun is a hero if you ask me
A gentleman remains as such, no matter the form he takes!!!
Me and the BOYS
The gals, but yes
about to go beat up the homeless or something idk i don't play monk
we are the homeless ones actually
human, CAT, dragon, femroe
what server is this on again-
zodiark
meanwhile, Warrior SB quests: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9FVKiNIW2U
honestly? same
#ffxiv #ff14
awww queue popped
and yes, it had to be a fuckin' Xaela Female Au Ra just to make me very angy
like
"mfer i've been training with you since level 30"
and this cheap ho with her ye ye ass haircut steals you
I'm not actually bothered, this was a great change of pace after nearly murdering your mentor and him having to retire for a bit because of him nearly killing innocents
i think i found the place but unfortunately no more monk friends:c
sadge
I just finished my raid, lemme see
Oh no, all gone indeed :<
I feel like these two are about to give me advice...
Stylish
Sir. Russia is that way.
@minor sorrel have u got any roulettes left?
Staring off into the distance.... meanwhile, four arguing catgirls
if ud like to play a lil together, i mean
since i only did msq roulette so far today
i'm mainly trying to do the pandemonium stuff to get me a weapon :X
The lala is still around and they're playing the pulp fiction theme

When we were young the future was so bright (whoa)
The old neighborhood was so alive (whoa)
And every kid on the whole damn street (whoa)
was gonna make it big in every beat.
Now the neighborhood's cracked and torn (whoa)
The kids are grown up but their ...
I do wonder what programs they're using for stuff like that
there is a person named "kingdom hearts" in this raid

this party was soooo close to normal portaits if i didnt decide to b bard for this one
You ruined everything
yey
I think two of them are back at the same spot but not monk-ying about anymore :<

https://vxtwitter.com/AvyCatte/status/1702085924085985727 also is this too meme-y when it's spitting 100000% truth?

god i want to put him through a table
great now i have to find 3 pieces of monk armor
WHEEEEE
:(
OH YOU ARE SO GETTING BEATEN TO DEATH
NOBODY CALLS ME STINKY!
i need to sort my inventory... Again...
all of them?!
How.
Considering they were all dancing, might be on purpose 
I got the last ShB trial earlier and the song is still a banger
also the raid itself is really fun despite how brutal it was
We did wipe once in the second phase and the main tank got pissy about it but ehhh
it's a lot of mechanics to recgonise at once, especially since we did have at least one newbie
Man, I've been hitting the cap on Comedy tomestones recently and now you have this 
LMAO so I was doing Darkhold retch as MNK and we're on the final boss
get him to about 15-20%, LB2 isn't going to hit so I just hit LB whenever (Other DPS was RDM) and I had the most perfect timing of him releasing a fat fuckoff line AoE as I was doing the animation
Died two seconds later.
Got two commendations.
WORTH
monk gameplay is fun
cant wait for ya to enjoy the nadi system
the nani system
level 47 btw
1-50 is pain
man i got the last 5.0 trial just now and
FUCK does that go hard
yayyyy 88 on GNB
I'll probably have it done before weekly reset if I bothered to do all the dailies but
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f92BRmc8kzw monk LB3 is just teleports behind you Nothing personel, kid

not as flashy as say, drg pullin a dragon outta their arse, but tis ours so its the best
a question for red mage players: how do ya.... do the thing? it feels like no matter what i do i always inevitably end at the low end of dps list (at least goin by the enmity ranking). i dont know if thats a magic dps thing but here i am tryin to play to the best of my ability n yet healers outdamage me sometimes, n generally thats a uh oh sign
feels like im draggin down alliance raids when i play rdm in them :c
n yet i think i have the basics down? jolt if i dont have dualcast or verstone/fire for shortest cast time. swap black n white skills around for balanced mana pool. go ham with melee 1-2-3 when poll is above 50 n throw corps a corps / engagement / displacement in there when possible. aoe version is 3 enhanced moulinets with 60 polls. tap contre sixte n fleche on cooldown. use acceleration as needed. i just dont know, am i missin somethin obvious?
I'm probably very wrong but isn't RDM more support-y than raw dps?
hmmmm, well we can revive ppl if shit hits the fan in 64+, but rdm is no bard or dancer
i forgot my internet is atrocious at parent's house. i havent had a lag this bad in. ever 
thank fuck i decided to do a 24 that way my dead weight crippled by. literally bein unable to play wasnt too bad
You are so addicted to the game
i want the event tomestones for stuff....
n duty roulette xp for them levels im like thiiiiis close to havin all my chosen classes b 80
Definitely addicted
she be an ork doe

The rarely seen DPS in need
if anywhere it is gonna b 24
average 8 man party
got the last ShB dungeon, we wiped twice on the first boss 
rest of it was pretty chill, i got 3 commendations
Guy in red looks like he's about to drop his trousers
I was wondering if that was why you screenshotted
I didn't notice at first, i just had the one tank trying to solo the boss, lmao
level 89 gnb
so close
OH RIGHT I FORGOT THE 89 GEAR 
I actually like it so much that I'm keeping it
ahhh ten minutes to clear Prae before reset and we're at Gaius 
I really should have done Main Scenario fiiiiirst
WEW
four minutes before reset 
nice
I can defo hit 90 with GNB today
Might take all the dailies to do so
on a side note thanks to me grinding EW content my GNB is going to be STACKED as soon as I hit 90
Tribal Quests got me over the hump 
I should really do the EW one, if I'm getting 900k EXP from the ShB ones the EW ones are going to be insane

Okay, ILVL 640 GNB already is nuts
The only thing keeping it from matching WAR is the weapon (Since it's the current Manderville step and while it's not BIS I am not trying to go that hard
)
Also decided that Snow White is my dye of choice for GNB
something something guardian or other something something Daddy Thancred
this totally isn't a Gaius knockoff, lmao
Have I mentioned that ShB/EW jobs have fucking sick animations yet?
As for how to compares to Warrior now that I've got the full kit...
I like it
It's fun to just burst the fuck out of everything like I'm a DPS
But I don't think the actual "tank" side of things is enough for me
Which tbf coming from WAR which has godly sustainability is a bit unfair to compare
also like with WAR I never use the "x to not die" button, but I actually USE it on GNB!...
To commit seppuku... Which is more than "once in a blue moon", tbf
doin pixie tribe quest
dialogue option "we wouldn't dream of abandoning you"
"aww, thats nic- HOLD ON"
pixie tribe questline = dream walking nightmare fighting squad adventures
conclusion: a completely unashamed pun

meanwhile me doing pixie quests:
"DO-DO-DO-DO-DOREMY
GOOD GOOD GOOD GOOD SLEEP"
I never even did the quest
It's strange my favourite Touhou doujin band releases a song about the nightmare eating Touhou when I start fixing dreams in FFXIV
hc no clicky
has already clicked it

uh oh
ANYWAY YOU NEVER RATED MY GUNBREAKER GLAM >:(
well its very. ... you watched rwby, right? it sure is "weiss volume 7" levels of belts

i do like the weapon choice
i love that the pixie tribe quest rlly said (hc no. bad. i have a water bottle ready if need be.) ||"hmm, what if we took the angst of existential crisis...... and made it worse?||
It's the upgraded version of one of the EW tomestone weapons
I'll probably get EW Relic eventually, but for now this works bootifully
ill say it again playin as drk fits this dreamfighting soooooo well
I'll probably use GNB for 8-24 man content, seems to be better at off-tanking
and then I can do the emergency tank swap when the other tank inevitably fucks up
Still the level 90 skill being your own version of Gaius' ultimate attack is such a cool throwback too :3
very carefully his reply without touching the spoiler
i didn't do the thing

good job
when the game casually throws at ya "ok, now pull someone outta that ||suicide spiral|| "

you should do msq
i will! u know. after this. and the qitari dailies
boo

its not my fault they made these tribe quests so compelling! im a giant sucker for "literally fight the manifestations of problems usually hidden in one's psyche"!
you should play Persona
if my ramblings in #1032716748887179434 didn't tip you off about that sort of thing
i mean, i watched a 100% playthrough of p5r if that counts
p4g .... i uh. tried. n then they did a thing n i went "nope" and dropped it

yoooooooo that is so cool

hc no cliccy!
||ALL. THE. DRUGS.||

It's a great quest, agreed
certainly a strongest tribe storyline ive played so far. i do adore my stormblood sneks, but this was just, chef kiss
now then, quick meetup with gatherer ratmoles n then its off to pain n suffering central
by which i mean msq, obviously
reeeee
AM I COOL YET
this is so funny
the fact this dialogue line about not bein normal stops on uriangers face of all places

Let me have this

I mean, you need 15 of them compared to 3 tanks and 6 healers

i wanna play duty roulette so much but with how bad my lag was yesterday n how the game lags right now in overworld, bad idea
so. forced to msq

You will take your game trauma and you will like it
sigh im havin a shoe crisis again
on one hand, i like the shoes! those are the monk shoes! i like them! i like the extra armor plating that is nontheless flexible for complex footwork monks do!
on the other hand..... maybe somethin different would work better to tie the vibe? brown instead of white, perhaps? brown with slight touches of yellow? auugh i dont know
to the eorzea collection again, i guess
they have to be just-below knee shoes, since above knees hide the best part of the pants n just up the knee look. i dunno, dumb?
glam is both the endgame and the final boss i swear
@elfin wave Which would you say is the fastest of the bunch? 
definitely not prae
well yeah
Euprhrosine has the benefit that ti gives you current tomestones rather than poetics
And i think it's the fastest but admittedly I never run Dun or the monastery
So I don't actually know
Roulette did just give that to me and yeah i do think it's pretty fast
Mostly going for the irregular tomestones though
orbonne isnt bad, from my perspective at least
I didn't realize there was native american representation in FF14 
...Meanwhile about 10 meters away, some elf is playing the goddamn
theme
I need context for that one 
I want it D:
You get it from getting the 7 normal kamuy whistles
Which you can get with the current moogle event thingie
I assume that those rewards only happen the first time, roullete or normal queueing? If I just do it over and over again I don't get more of the tomestones?
Tomestomes aren't daily
You get them at the end of every run
Just the rulette give their rewards daily
So the already received thing is for what, the roulette part?
I think it's the coin, or token or whatever that is
I don't remember how it's called
Also bringi don't read that text
okay, i need other opinions. this is my boiled down to two picks vs the current (yes i wore the serpentskin shoes before what can i say im predictable). yes i pulled the brakes on msq for twenty minutes of shoe picking it is critical i look good in cutscenes. feel like brown works best but ya know could be in white, or black, or another purple, or possibly yellow. what do ya think
gen im havin a fashion crisis here i dont give a flyin fuck about endwalker rn 
Deleted for bringi safety, forgot 
I think the 2nd one goes great with the shoulder armor
And ah yeah the coin
So I'd go with that one
i did have a similar thought about that, glad to hear that confirmation from another
okay, lets give it a try
it is not as 'armored' as i would like, but the bonus here is that shoes fit snugly from the back too, where the monk shoes dont fit snugly to the pants
I swear this game also made you angrier
I still find it hilarious that KFC Japan is doing FF collab
Kentucky Fried Chocobo
Eph and Tower are probably the fastest, or at least the ones I've had the least issues with
also like contreversial take Prae doesn't take that long
but i suppose the cutscenes over actual gameplay are what break it for ya
naw i mean raw time spent. I can ignore the cutscenes by watching shit on a second screen 
Prae is probably fastest by a few mins then
Like my last run yesterday I started it with like 20 minutes until reset and I still got out right before reset.
... I'd still go Eph and Tower though for gear/rewards unrelated to Tomestones
The ShB raids are nightmareishly rare outside of these events so you might as well take advantage and try to get what you can while people are actively trying to run them
... Speaking of ShB raids, of course I log in to someone playing Song of the Ancients from NieR
@hasty kayak I hit 50 on MNK so now I can see the exciting conclusion of "Erik of the Punchable Face and Groin"
but first
i need to grab new fists
Okay hear me out
SURE
I may have murdered the god of the bird people and fashioned her claws into pretty fists and that's really insensitive
it do look rad tho
... I'm going to regret making fun of this dude so much, aren't I?
Bruh you act like I'm not
- A homeowner
- Very rich
- I have Nugget
WHY ARE YOU RUNNING
DO YOU FEAR THE POWER OF MY BEAR CLAWS
weak.
UNCLE BEN!?!?!?!?!
... Do you have one in Au Ra size?
Ah, in my travels I found unrelated ShB quest
neat i'll do that Later™️
WHY IS IT SO YELLOW
YOU WILL TAKE THE YELLOW AND YOU WILL LIKE IT
And those claws don't fit your glams, you need something more feral
bro i kicked your ass like an hour ago
... again, I kicked your ass an hour ago...
ah, not just catgirl monks
but orphan catgirl monks!
also the problem is i can't find anything more feral to use as glam
maybe these
or these BIG MEATY CLAWS
I think there's some outright claws too
Ah, Limsa
Oh, I found what you need for your purp glam
Bismuth Tonfa (Crafted, I think)
Ah, these. Love them 
YARR
ok all my MNK gear is going to be Honey Yellow
trying to figure out how my level 50 kit works while in Titan's Landsliding distance

(you can make arr gear dyeable btw)
dont forget to wash it first too 
I don't know HOW
w, washin or dyeability 
Dyability you GOOSE
its a little convoluted, but at the same time it's way less annoying than say, sb's eureka deal. basically go chuck money at the market board for materials n then talk to a specific npc
.... oh. right. uuh. are you by any chance an alchemist. i. forgor u need to b an alchemist n not everyone is an omnicrafter


well, trading is a thing, right? i should be able to craft it for you
i cant see anywhere sayin that the augmentation parts are untradable, so it should b possible
just, ya know, consider it n lemme know, it wouldnt be much trouble at all
Too much crafting
its fun!
No it’s not!

i swear MNK rotation makes me feel like a fucking Starcraft player
It is rather hectic, I don't like this version as much as previous ones
EVEN AT JUST 50 I FEEL INADEQUETE
👊
👊
pat pat
everyone may or may not keep tryin to kill ya in monk questline. dont worry about it
no thought punch only

She got people in the community acting unwise, not gonna lie

Ok here is how it works.
You want to avoid doing celestial revolution, so you always want to have either 3 chakra of the same color or 3 different colors
gen no, hold on!
I don't think he even has access to that yet 
thats not a lvl 50 thing yet
Wait how does he have any confusion yet then?
that will just confuse hc. i´m typin out a quick guide, i think i know what to say here
That's the only confusing part of the class
Au'ra brains, you see
Or lack thereof
At this point I am invested in seeing bringi explanation
@elfin wave ok so. i really uh. got into this. oops. ANYWAY a few basic pointers, so you can feel more comfortable with the core loop before nadis and riddles complicate the job.
lets start with the most important thing. keep your "combo trios" grouped together correctly. i dont know how your keybinds are set, but i highly, highly recommend setting your buttons in such a way that you have them all in one place n can easily swap between them mid combo.
here´s my bars for an example. you can see i have the 123 and alt-123 set for the single damage rotations, the yellow and blue rectangle. first slot is for raptor skills, then coeurl, then opo-opo. and because my third bar is set to ctrl and i have a hard time pressin it with my pinkie, i instead have my aoe trio set as 456 (in the red rectangle). and again, its raptor, then coeurl, then opo-opo.
the other highly important button is your meditation button. thats the pink rectangle n u press that bitch for free damage when its charged. a good idea is to always keep that gauge full n ready, so just press it whenever outside combat. and you keep pressing it to charge if boss decides u cant punch at the moment. we dont have ranged attack so we just charge meditation until we can go back to punch.
and the other other important button is in pale blue, perfect balance. it will be crucial for nadis so its a good idea to keep it at place u can easily press semi-often for future. and, you can really use it for your advantage now too!
thats the very veeeeery basics. make sure you group yer buttons correctly so its easy to press them in order when they light up. you doin damage now, hurray!
now before i continue, buffs n debufs. they affect monk rotation. i noticed your ui isnt. ideal to keep track of those. i recommend degrouping target stats as seen in image one and turnin on your debuffs go first in image 2.
just put your buffs n debuffs icons close together so u can easily see whats goin on
n now, how to play a little more optimally? behold, a c h a r t
Or if you are a filthy cheater like me you can add an addon that make your buffs more noticeable at a glance

if u combine this with occasionally throwin in an ogcd and tryin to pay attention to your positioning.... congrats!
now you monk good at lvl 50
(i cant even monk that good i dont always remember to do positionals correctly)
As a sidenote displaying only detrimental effects you inflict can be a problem at high level, since seeing other people debuffs can be important to for example, fitting your burst into the ninja vulnerability window or not doubling up on addle/feint but it's really not a huge deal at this level

Really good explanation
there's always more, like not forgettin to use true north if you cant position (which i endlessly forget about)
but really as long as you at least tap your 1-2-3s correctly u wont b completely terrible. but the chart is helpful if u wanna optimise monk a bit. n if its ingrained in you to keep your buffs in checks, that helps in other jobs too, like say, bard debuffs
True, renewing dots is a difficult skill to master
definitely not angry every time i accidentally drop my bards DoTs... definitely not.....
At least now it's not disastrous as before EW bard changes
i dread to ask but im also curious
Basically, each of your songs have effects that proc randomly right?
Before those effects proc was bad based on each tick of your dots.
So if you didn't have dots on, your songs didn't proc at all
that's terrible
The good side, is that if you had more than one enemy on the field, you were insane
Because you applied dots to all of them and your songs proceed 2/3/4 times as often
pitch perfect go RATATATATTATATATA
But dropping the dot also meant you dropped basically most of your DPS
mustve been wacky
like i do in red mage!

i dont know why that job is so hard for me
Also there aren't many high end encounters with more than one target
augh the 2000 limit on poetic tomes is so annoyin. i dont even know what to spend them on anymore, until i unlock shb gear its useless to me. i keep throwin them at materia so i can sell them on the market board bc thats about the only idea i had
There should be some orchestrion rolls at idylshire and ralghar reach if you didn't pick those up yet
You know what? I still have unused fantasia from the level 50 quest that I did two years ago. Maybe, with my current knowledge, I would have made some other choices when I first created my character, but I've grown too attached to him to change anything.

Basically yeah, as bringi said you have a 123 and each of the 3 buttons have 2 different skills you can use, depending on the situation
And a AOE version
the chart effectively means that in single target rotation, you can usually fit two true strikes and maaaybe two snap punches in between the buff n debuff skills. so you go "do dragon kick - twin snakes (attack up) - demolish (target DoT) - dragon kick (bootshine ready) - true strike - snap punch - bootshine - true strike - snap punch (if enough time on DoT, otherwise demolish) - dragon kick (bootshine ready) - twin snakes (attack up) and so on
but i generally find it easier to eyeball the timers? whichever works for ya

all 80s lets gooooo
You're ready for ShB Role Quests 

pretty nice!
Scholar shouldn't couint since it shares EXP with SMN
tho bard is fun gameplay ya should give it a shot
this is pain
i say, unironically doing this
me waiting for DPS queue even when it says DPS in need
sigh I GUESS I can do birdpeople
man ur button binds are something else
ye are kiinda mixin the aoe's with the single targets, from what i can tell, im not sure if ur doint that on purpose. your aoe skills are currently on 2-F-X in that order, your raptors are on 1 and 3, your coeurls on G and E and opo opos on Z and V.
which is. i mean if it works for ya

I think I am mixing them 
lets see, what would i recommend in this situation... i dont have the left hand set quite like this but i guess thats cause your right is for the mouse, correct?
THESE STANCES ARE HEKK
mouse and numpad
okay i sorted it so like
there's three groups now
Raw deeps
Buffs/Debuff
and AoE
I am less understanding of this.
This feels like psycho behaviour
This person clearly likes touhou
I GOT USED TO IT
yes, gooood
I feel like this setup would be hell once you start introducing nadis into the mix
Like, the old one
yeaaaaaah
honestly, considerin u use numpad, why not just put all the fighty skills onto 1-9, n then drip the other skills around the wasd?

This setup looks sane to me
Congrats
ok if i can b annoyin. lookin at ur options, consider:
this is for full 90 kit but u know if u assign everythin buttons in advance.... itll take less time to get used to it 
lemmie just copy that message link for later
now that im actually not afraid of tanks anymore..... sure i can make it my next class when i get an itch for new stuff
im kinda tryin to refocus on msq now
it kinda got away from me in favor of duty roulette fun
If you can play DRK you can play WAR
i feel like this new layout is going to give me hand pains
welcome to monk
logs on to screenshot his layout
Red is default 1-2-3 buttons on keyboard. 7-8-9 are using my mmo mouse side buttons so they're super easy to click. Green row is all shift so it's just shif 1 etc,
Top row is not bound so I just mouse click em which I know is bad but shush 
woops used green twice
thancred perjaps you picked a wrong tank class
this is soooooo melodramatic of you sid would absolutely adore you
Which part?
I think that Thancred can only be Gunbreaker or Warrior.
He can't cast magic or manipulate aether, meaning that there is no way that he can be Dark Knight or PLD.
And Gunbreaker only because someone else infuses his cartridges for him.
im aware, but at the same time the e d g e
what do you MEAN out of nowhere "twilight over thanalan"
i hate this fuckin game when it gives me chest pains
Are you by any chance, doing the best part of the game, the Trolley part?
i dont think im enough of a thancred fan to consider it best
but yes thats what we're doin
Fuck Thancred, praise be to the trolley
ah, good then!
currently we tryin to find a rock to replace a talos heart
n he's in a sadge monologue
(I'm extremely sarcastic, that part I feel is kinda slow, they should have probably cut a good chunk from it, but the Dadcred scenes are pretty good)
The trolley obsessed dude is funny but not enough to drive hours of this
not that im complainin. i guess its to accompany viera french
i think its meant to b french accent at leasz
o
It's a really good accent
LMAO THE PLOT CONVENIENT ROCK
im sorry i know what the game is gettin at but this is so incredibly funny to me
"wow! we sure are lucky that we happened to find this specific worm that had this specific rock, huh?"
I agree but also the Magnus scene after is pretty good so I can't complain
They got a good VA for him
It was not exactly masterful writing, yeah
I don't remember if the crystaline means gathering quest bring you here
Yeah I did forgive them the contrivances and the lenght and the trolley worship because they did stick the landing
Also Magnus is definitely meant to represent a side of Thancred in this
He can't let go of Minfilia, like he couldn't get closure for his wife.
Which is why it's important that they have that conversation.
And it's also why Thancred is emotionally unavailable and closes within himself, which is not quite as self destructive as the way Magnus did it, but it's a similar form of unhealthy mourining, or inability of rather.
oh my goodness! is this.... urianger havin a good scene i like? speechless
I love Minifilia and her 2 gay dads
yall alsways goin on about dadcred n yet urianger of all ppl wins uncle of the year for conversation with minifillia
||EW screen b like: and faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiitthhhhhhhh 🎶 ||
Yeah I did love how he was the right person to step in, after all he is the one in the most similar position to her.
She blames herself for Minfilia not being able to reunite with Thancred.
And he is literally to blame
For sending Minfilia off
every single scion is so fuckin bad at eavesdropping yall are not slick at all
meanwhile, with truck-kun
oh. and asshole
im startin to think @slim cairn just straight up went n || stole emet-selch´s personality.||
I have a clip to link you about Ishikawa, the new Main Scenario writer, but I can't until you finish the 5.0 story 
did i miss somethin or is the game bein intentionally obscure
Yes.
who´s ||her||. is it ||mainfilia? the crystal tower if u decided to call a tower a she? ||
............ oh

see if they let me have a they/them wol this wouldnt have happened
Sorry if you didn't want that clarified but I don't think they were meaning to make it an obscure fact
no it's chill 
i mean, you are kind of the most important person
Reminder that the Scions are only there because of Truck-kun's bullshit missing you and hitting them instead
It's more that the previous line literally ends with "The scions and their champion" so I think it's meant to be pretty clear who he refers to
the scions and their errand monk
ah, yeah i dont remember if there was any doubt left but this is definitely ||crystal tower catboi who's name i definitely did not forget. again.||
More so, he stole mine
g something
||g'raha tia||
:c :c :c :c
can i PLEASE hug the child
where is my one on one reassure child cutscene
forget thancred angst this has been by far the worst part of expansion so far emotionally
i am not immune to media explorin what "heroism" n "responsibility to the world" does to someone who csnt even do taxes yet
i think we should bring varis over to the first just so he can shoot him again
i would shoot him for free
Whyyy
its his single best scene
i would like to state gummy is not committin a crime. he´s just there for records for his new job
yeah the cardinal sin of annoyin me
$45 for a record check
and so i retire to the shade....

Hmm, this next MNK quest requires me to go to a location called "Dalamund's Talons" 
YOU CAME AT ME WHEN I'M WEARING ARMOR FROM THE GOD THAT CAUSED THE 7TH CALAMITY, WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU EXPECT?
Bet. Sore loser. Take the L. 
What is this, Kingdom Hearts?
well the main antagonists really are just org xiii wannabees so....
man
PoTD is going to be a pain since I cashed in my Aetherpool levels to get the Paladin arms and then proceeded to stop playing Paladin
I did plan to try and get Necromancer at some point but I gave up on that after a half dozen attempts dying at like floor 20 
RANJIT THAT IS SO ROOD. we finally got the totally not train goin n everything
PUT HIM IN A RETIREMENT HOME ALREADY
I have a good guide for it
POTD
This is the first part (Floor 1 to floor 140) of a tutorial vod I streamed. This is meant to be used by someone who would like to attempt to get their necromancer on WAR. Even though these are the lower floors, a lot of good advice is given during the sets (since there is a lot of time to be talking) and so I heavily advice you watch this in add...
This dude is great
