||somethin somethin mankind is now ready to take care of its fate||
did i REALLY have to murder ||venat|| for it tho :ccccccc
thats my friend
plucky cairn
This hits super hard because what you ||learned of their culture right?||
The fact that|| they wait to return to the star when their goals are accomplished as stewards and they can finally rest||
||She was waiting for this for millennia||
elfin wave
... how fucked would the world be if ||venat decided to go into the life stream after she stepped down from the Head Seat like she was supposed to, lmao||
also
bringi is getting dangerously close to my favourite area

At the ***very least***
best area song and tribe.

hasty kayak
ohoho speakin of which, ||BUNNI|| MVPPPPPPPPP

elfin wave
||"wait why did you make them bunn-"

hasty kayak

Never knew I needed it, but I needed a ||lullaby with Hydaelyn calling me her brave little spark||
hasty kayak
i am totally breakin games plans by sittin here lettin the song play in full aint i

plucky cairn
This bit murders me every time no questions asked
||Deep, dark, far away, I have heard your voice, weighed your every choice Now our hands join round the meaning you sought I'll catch your tears, quench your fears with joy til you near the shore Where in time, all shall as hope be reborn, ah Hush, love, close your eyes, and in sleep abide As sun's distant light, echoes down to dreams below Know you will wake, on winds rise again For this journey's end is but one step forward to tomorrow||
elfin wave
unrelated but did either of you two notice who we partied with in Ampador?
slim cairn
<@456226577798135808> you are so cancelled
Shush, I will always follow Zodiark

aw
hasty kayak
why is this hittin me so haaaaard
plucky cairn
She's a good character.
hasty kayak
well that's an understatement
plucky cairn
I swear ||EW contains so many bad ideas, they just execute them so well that it still works||
slim cairn
Im mad at brings
plucky cairn
They literally ||introduce the main villain of the expansion, 3 levels before you have to fight it, that shouldn't work, and despite that it still works||
hasty kayak
gummy why did you decide this was a good thing to subject me to
plucky cairn
You didn't even remember who ||venat was before going in, they mentioned her so little before EW, and yet in a single zone they made her into a character you love, and literally killed her off 2 levels later.||
This should be bad but it isn't
hasty kayak
unclench ur fuckin jaw bringi dammit this is so fuckin full of impact
plucky cairn
They break all the rules but they are just so good at writing that it doesn't matter
hasty kayak
i am so so so sorry stormblood, i think they actually did it, they trumphed the bias
oh gods i wanna lie down how am i supposed to process this
plucky cairn
I still do think SHB is better, it was a lot more focused and clean than EW, but it's a damn close call
slim cairn
i am so so so sorry stormblood, i think they actually did it, they trumphed the ...
YES YES YES
BRINGY ENDS UP LIKING MY FAVOURITE EXPANSION?!
Bringy actually likes something I like?!
hasty kayak
you do not get it i am literally sittin here like that one meme
this but without the alcohol
slim cairn
Why you sitting like that?
hasty kayak
DID WE NOT PLAY THE SAME STORY????? ARE YOU NOT MOVED AFTER THAT?????
i can feel my braincells getting reconfigured in real time
hasty kayak
"oh, you know, final fantasy xiv has the single most incredible moving story i ever experienced, i really need you to feel this too, can you please spare like, 500 hours of your life?"
you cant just ask people that
hasty kayak
i say 500 hours because i dont know how long msq takes normal people. i personally am almost at 1500.
plucky cairn
Yeah it's so hard to recommend people do this
slim cairn
When you cry over Emet-Selch or Zodiark, then I will call you a true ffxiv player
plucky cairn
Especially since you can't explain why it's good
minor sorrel
hasty kayak
this will be lifetime torment
slim cairn
Im enjoying this
plucky cairn
Like even let's say they are fine with spoilers, if you didn't do the journey it wont mean anything to them
hasty kayak
yeah if you dont let the blorbos invade your brain permanently its all for naught
are the ||loporrits gonna hate me now that i murdered their creator||
minor sorrel
Topical: (shb/ew spoilers - safe for bringi) ||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-OgYU6GgEY||
hasty kayak
also i definitely wanna try this as savage. gen you said you know it, you'll help right
plucky cairn
I'll need to refresh my memory but we can try
hasty kayak
good good
plucky cairn
The fact that I was getting hit by the normal mechanics tells me that I definitely don't remember as much as I thought
hasty kayak
i am never livin this down from gummy, but i cant lie
i am so sorry sb i will still cherish you forever tho, you are such a good second place
slim cairn
i am so sorry sb i will still cherish you forever tho, you are such a good secon...
Stoppp
Shadowbringers is second
Heavensward is third
elfin wave
the worst part?
i don't think EW has peaked yet
plucky cairn
For me it has, but the rest is also really good
elfin wave
it is coming dangerously close though
slim cairn
Nsfb ||how much you guys wanna bet bringy will sob during the walk?||
elfin wave
that final area
chef kiss
no notes needed
plucky cairn
Nsfb ||how much you guys wanna bet bringy will sob during the walk?||
NSFb ||of course, that part is engineered to make you cry||
slim cairn
Hehehe
elfin wave
it probably has for most people, but I vastly love the final area
like it hits me in all the good spots
i think the tribe for that area is what tipped over the edge for me like
a g h
i want to gush about the themes and the really good stuff but spoiiiilers
hasty kayak
IM TRYING BUT IM STILL OVERWHELMED
slim cairn
I will spoil, Lyse shows up in the final area, turns out she is the final boss.
hasty kayak
its been half an hour since ||hydaelyn dissolved|| n ive done nothing but stare at my laptop

slim cairn
Whyyyy
elfin wave
slim cairn
Whyyy didn’t you stare when ||Zodiark or Emet-Selch|| dissolved?
hasty kayak
sorry for formin emotional attachment to your not-faves
hasty kayak
just for the record, in my brain cannon my WOL just straight up curled into a ball for thirty minutes to process™. the scions took turns for pat pats.
wrong
slim cairn
Yeah! No time!
hasty kayak
oh boi actually Y E A H game i am gonna take you up on that break offer, i do not think i could focus any further even if i was forced to

(for legal reasons this is a joke i cherish yall but DAMN)
Does that include me?
Considering you threatened over this game and time me out so many times! 😡
abstract ibex
I thought ARR would be done by the credits but i guess not
plucky cairn
Oh right, I should explain
Every expansion cycle is the .0 patch, that is the content that came out as the game/expac released on day 1
And several .x patches (2.1, 2.2, etc) that is stuff that came out during the expansion you are playing and before the next one
What you completed was the 2.0 content, which was released the day "a Realm Reborn" released
abstract ibex
Oh that makes sense
rough crescent
ARRs .X patches are a lot of reading, but it's worth taking your time with
the story being told is really good
hasty kayak
(ew studium) the premise of ||leatherworker-weaver-carpenter is so funny to me. its this "help this nerd reconnect with his best friend, because they were both into astronomy before the friend became a jock and now considers those past dreams embarrassing and passé" but they throw you some curveballs into the cliche bc for one the jock didnt start bullyin him or whatever, no he just really wants the nerd to try out some other stuff too, get more extroverted bc makin those connections will really come handy and also he's worried that the nerd is so self-isolatory, but more hilariously this is sharlayan so the "jock" in this premise is in POETRY CLUB. absolutely delightful. why is poetry considered more cool than astronomy. yall are still NEEEEERDS.||
bitch i feel that 
plucky cairn
(ew studium) the premise of ||leatherworker-weaver-carpenter is so funny to me. ...
Have you read what they said, of ||course the poetry club is cooler.||
||I get that you are Ace but the whole BBQ nonsense and watching meat sear is code for "they fuck"||
elfin wave
bitch i feel that <:penk:542101386205331476>
If I didin't already get you to change the role name to "Thing Breaking People" this would be a candidate
hasty kayak
hasty kayak
Have you read what they said, of ||course the poetry club is cooler.||
||I get t...
but... isnt bbq better than doin that?
these names are hilarious
elfin wave
can a role name be that long
you know what thing breaking person is still better
plucky cairn
Can be, depends who is cooking and what is cooking
hasty kayak
plucky cairn
That's this expansion artifact gear
It looks pretty great and has a very "classic" feel
It being the closure of the story they probably wanted the gear you get at the end to look like your class
elfin wave
And it'll be the best you're getting until post-EW
elfin wave
i mean you could buy stuff off market board
but ehhh i mean like non-crafted gear
i find it good for quickly shoring up a low ILVL job but since most content I'm not interested in doing is so high level, it's not worth the time or money
plucky cairn
It's dyable as long as you did the role quest
elfin wave
also that
i like the rpr one
hasty kayak
ho boy thats a lotta stuff ill b throwin into, hmmmm. retainer i suppose
plucky cairn
You don't have to get it if you don't plan to wear it
It's always there
And if you delete it you can get it back
elfin wave
it's worth looking at anyway

slim cairn
hasty kayak
i guess it just managed to make me care more
game rlly said "i am about to impart so much life lessons"
all this mushiness only serves to make me more nervous about the final map
oh holy moly buddy what happened to you
||oh i guess it was just some kinda semi-merge with that lil ghostie reapers have, zenos is fine||
elfin wave
game rlly said "i am about to impart *so much* life lessons"
||"Also, don't get possessed by ancient gods. Pretty sure Hydaelyn read my dirty thoughts."||
hasty kayak
"dont you dare fuckin die out there"
welp, ill try!

elfin wave
"Enjoy the vibe? Hc, ||everything's dead here||"
Exactly! :D
elfin wave
pretty depression ™
Hands down the prettiest area in FFXIV.
hasty kayak
eeeeeeeh, i still like ||that one purple cave in ala mhigo more||
elfin wave
I adore this place 
I don't think this area even has battle music, so you're free to just
Listen to the background music and just
Ahhhhh...

elfin wave
||A strange new worrrrrld (A strange new wooooorld)

elfin wave
I'm like 90% sure ||the powerup is a one time useage sorta thing||
||can hardly go back to Hydaelyn and ask to recharge your crystal like it's your phone||
hasty kayak
she said nothin of the sort
plucky cairn
She did say that it ||will not last indefinitely||
hasty kayak
yeah, which is why we should use it while we have it
elfin wave
||maybe the energy drains faster when you use it||
phone analogy
you keep your screen off to save battery
hasty kayak
well my ||friend is dead|| so i feel like that's a good case of usin that appirify light
but whateveeeeer i guesssss
elfin wave
||you revive Papalymo instead of Thancred||
elfin wave
(this doesn't happen, that would just be funny)
hasty kayak

elfin wave
look if i could ||rez Ysayle i'd damn Thancred too||
holy shit i needed to NIN edit that

||"What's a death flag?"||
hasty kayak
||and like always, ill be the last one standin. i hate my existence already||
||stop bonk sacrificin urselves bonk for me bonk||
ew please do somethin about this, surely im gettin ahead of myself n itll be different this time
surely
surely...
elfin wave
||let's be real you're the only competent scion at this point||
hasty kayak
:CCCCCCCCC
elfin wave
IF YOU USED TRUST SYSTEM YOU WOULD KNOW
trust system more like betrayal system
because they never fucking HEAL ME
i headcanon that trust system is canonically how good they are at fighting and that's why you're the majority player in everything 
hasty kayak
forget that, ||alisaie keeps WASTIN LIMIT BREAKS which is the real infuriarin part||
elfin wave
also apparently nobody knows what a rez is
hasty kayak
it fits the character my ass i want those hehe damage go brrrr
elfin wave
because if you die in Trust, vwoop back to the start with you
hasty kayak
i know, i did two trusts before forsakin it
mostly its just so slow. i get why, but its so slow
elfin wave
motherfucka there's like
5 scions who could rez at this point
probably exaggerating
how do you even revive in Trust? Do they just carry your body to the start of the dungeon and wait for you to wake up?
hasty kayak
||alphi, ali, uri, graha, krile||
elfin wave
"ah yea shit WoL fainted, we can't fight anymore."
elfin wave
||alphi, ali, uri, graha, krile||
||well we'll have to see if Krile's Pictomancy can rez but aside from that, accurate||
unless i'm missing something
elfin wave
Pictomancer is a branch class of White Mage
hasty kayak
well, not with you directly, but she makes it thru the beasties
elfin wave
elfin wave
she doesn't appear in any Trusts so y'know
(Tataru technically dabbled in Summoner as well, so she would have a rez if she got a few levels in)
okay, *arcanist but the point stans
hasty kayak
she has enough heal knowledge ||to keep everyone's souls tethered to their bodies, i choose to believe she can rez||
elfin wave
WHY THE FUCK CAN NONE OF THE SCIONS USE A REZ THO
"Shit you got knocked out so we had to retreat."
"... My brother in Hydaelyn you HAVE A REZ."
"yeah but it takes like 8 seconds"
dumbass tangent aside i should slepp
hasty kayak
pat pat

• Voice from the Past ||(Merlwyb): What we have sown in blood, we have reaped in suffering, and it cannot go on.||
• Voice from the Past ||(Aymeric): Upon the souls of they who have sacrificed themselves to pave the way for peace, we will never abandon our cause.||
• Voice from the Past ||(Nanamo): While it is true that man succumbs all too often to anger and avarice, he may yet overcome his baser instincts through the forming of bonds with others.||
• Voice from the Past ||(Raubahn): Such victories are rarely won without sacrifice. But the prize is worth the price.||
• Voice from the Past ||(Kan-E-Senna): And we for our part are glad indeed to be able to welcome friends both old and new...||
• Voice from the Past ||(Hien): Save your tears for the morrow. You may be sure we will have ample cause to shed them, be they for joy or despair.||
• Voice from the Past ||(Papalymo): From tragedy and sacrifice we rise to greet a new dawn.||
• Voice from the Past ||(Edmont): A future shaped by the choices we made, in ways we could never have foreseen.||
• Voice from the Past ||(Beq Lugg): Yet miracles do happen. So let us pray, and will our friends home.||
• Voice from the Past ||(Ryne): I won't stop praying until I know they're safe.||
• Voice from the Past ||(Midgardsormr): Strong art thou, mortal.||
• Voice from the Past ||(Minfilia): Look to the light within, that you may continue to serve as a beacon to others.||

Probably ||Papalymo too, been a long time||
Maybe someone else
hasty kayak

||the part about all their other loved ones bein turned into lalas n cats n such which must be really weird aside, they too in the end agreed with their friend venat (though emetnort took some convincing). that we are worthy of their legacy, and that they can close their chapter of the book safely with knowledge that if nothing, we´re stubborn as fuck and will keep trying||
plucky cairn
Yes and at the same time ||they recognised it's not their world anymore, as he said "the future you seek is not the past I loved"||

||they too are deities, in a sense, and if mankind truly is ready to hold their fate in their hands, they cannot keep interfering||

Did you recognise tho, why ||his speech about the wonders of the world?||
When this quest is finished, ||the path she set you out on in 2.0 will have concluded, you wont be the Warrior of Light and there wont be a lingering darkness to banish.||
Both the ||light and the darkness aren't there anymore, they both vanished.||
It's a big identity crisis the community felt really strong going into this expansion
They really wanted to push ||there will be more to the world we made than this conflict||

well i guess my identity crisis didnt have time to fester for months n months, so no
but that makes sense in a way
okay, im gonna go comatose now. cant believe i pulled that in a single session, that was not my intention
especially bc i didnt start til like 7 bc i was sidetracked by tribes and roulette
plucky cairn
Did you leave secondary quests for later in this zone?
plucky cairn
Wow
hasty kayak
it does help that there were always like, three at the time instead of ten
in the final map
pretty sure ||amaurot|| was the same
plucky cairn
True there weren't that many there either
hasty kayak
the one with terry pratchett reference was fun
hasty kayak
i havent read any of his work actually, though i did consider it n its kinda sittin on my options list
me currently bein enamored with ff14 aside id have to decide whether to read originals or translations, for instance
but who knows maybe ill commit someday
.... why did yall let me go off on that when its not even the correct author lmao
scrap all that then, what i meant was ||"hehe, they did the thing with 42 bein the answer"|| is a fun bit for a side quest
and now i really go sleep
plucky cairn
I mostly didn't remember the reference in question
As far as I know, there could have been a terry pratchett reference in one of the quests
hasty kayak
@elfin wave hopefully your troubles with internet didnt keep persisting, let us know when you´re online? boop
@plucky cairn do ya wanna hang around in bozja while we wait for hc to stop havin a life on a sunday i am also amenable for fates or deep dungeon or such

plucky cairn
Oh right, if you want a preview of the island sactualy, I think you can join me on mne while I finish doing what I'm doing

I think you have to hop onto lich and go to the moraby drydocks, there should be a guy you can talk to visit a friend's island
I'm trying to figure out how to decorate it
Dude's called Baldin I think
hasty kayak
i did not either! whoopsie!
elfin wave
I suppose it doesn't need saying but you get what I said now, huh
plucky cairn
I really like that ||the song in that area starts as noise, then it adds more and more instruments as your friends sacrifice, as they became part of the zone it's like they add to the music||
It's an inspired choice
elfin wave
||https://youtu.be/MhO1uy9Zg98|| as a treat, my favourite version of my favourite FFXIV song

it was so delightful to hear bits of ultima
rough crescent
being healer in phase 2 during my first run was one of the absolute highest points this game had for me
plucky cairn
Also the ||music before that part, is a medley the boss musics from previous expansions, it's so excellent for a final boss of the an arc boss theme||
elfin wave
YES
I DIDN'T EVEN REALISE THAT UNTIL LIKE
||"WAIT IS THAT FUCKIN SHADOWBRINGERS"||
I'm not lying
I am on a fucking dopamine high
Good GOD that was AN EXPERIENCE
plucky cairn
Also ||With hearts aligned|| containes ||The maker's ruin|| which has became the WoL theme over the years
elfin wave
||WoL finally hit enrage||

I've had this line in my head for MONTHS btw
M O N T H S
plucky cairn
Yeah phase 2 ||is literally with our boss theme, and the boss just flails around and does very easy attack to dodge, the intended feeling is that we are the boss in that part. it's our phase 2 not hers||
elfin wave
i can finally be at peace 
well i said i was going to punch god so i'll be Cult of the Lambing after that ascension of my dopamine
plucky cairn
Also listen to the goddamn version of maker's ruin they put in this, full on brass, full pompous, slower, majestic: https://youtu.be/uzqsCbJOGfE?t=163
Soken really outdid himself in this expansion
elfin wave
YE

emotional devastation

Soken really outdid himself in this expansion
it's funny because this is every expansion

Ok so, EW content to do.
Hildibrand
First of all, more Hildi, this time also unlocks the relic weapons so it's not just for fun but it gives you pretty decent toys to play around with.
Each step requires 1500 tomestones of casuality.
These quests start at ||Radz-at-Han|| with the quest called "The Sleeping Gentleman"
Variant Dungeons
There is three of those and they have to be done in order I am pretty sure, basically it's dungeon you can go solo or with any amount of friends up to 3, that have multiple paths to complete. Different paths offer different or variants of bosses, and unlock different logs you can read in a book related to the dungeon you are exploring.
The first one is unlocked by the quest :"A key to the past" in ||Old Sharlayan||
I strongly recommend this content, especially the first dungeon.
Deep Dungeon: Eureka Orthos
You know what this does at this point, only 20 levels to complete the story, but it goes up to 100 for a determined group (or a skilled solo player)
You unlock this one with the quest "Delive into Myth" in Mor Dhona
Optional Dungeons
There are two optional dungeons that you can unlock with the quests ||"Cutting the Cheese" in Mare Lamentorum, and "Where no Loporrit Has Gone Before" in Ultima Thule||
Tataru Grand Endeavour
This is just a series of quests that gives you some nice glam but I'm sure you'll be all over it.
To unlock it you have to go a bit into 6.1, the quest is in ||Old Shalreyan|| and is called "Small Business, Big Dreams"
Most of those quests also require some sort of secondary content to have been completed but you did it all so I don't need to add the details here.
Island Sanctuary
Self explanatory, Quests is called "Seeking Sancturay" in ||Old Shalayan||
Tribal Quests
Tribe 1 (combat) - from the quest "Hippos are Born to Run" in ||Thavnair||
Tribe 2 (gathering) - from the quest "The Cafe at the End of the Universe in ||Ultima Thule|| which requires the optional dungeon unlocked by ||Where no Loporrit Has Gone Before||
Tribe 3 (crafting) - from the quest Must be Dreaming(way) in ||Old Sharlayan||
Pandemonium
As you no doubt saw the teaser at the end of the game, this is the 8 men raid for EW, it starts from the quest "Where Familiars Dare" in ||Old Shalayan||
Myths of the Realm
This is the 24 men raid, and it delves into the mistery of the 12, it's really good and my favourite 24 men raid by far.
You can start it from "A Mission in Mor Dhona" found in Old Shalrlayan but not until you went a way into 6.1.
Now the most important piece of content, there are new custom deliveries and one of them is Ameliance.
This means you can dress ||Alphi's mom in embarassing outfits,|| which makes this the best part of Endwalker.
elfin wave
needless to say, a lot has opened up
and I don't expect any MSQ progress for a month
minimum
hasty kayak
"and all ff14 players" :>
elfin wave
Oh yeah Gen you forgot the Tribal quests
I think you do need to do an optional dungeon for one of them
plucky cairn
I didn't put them in there because I'm pretty sure they are very easy to spot
elfin wave
fair, lol
elfin wave
IIRC ||Stigma Dreamscape is required for Omicrons||
i have no bias whatsoever
(it's my favourite tribe questline)
Yes, even better than dwarves, i know, heresy
plucky cairn
You are correct, I'll add them
elfin wave
look the whole ||gleaming hope from even the darkest shit at the literal end of the universe|| speaks to me (NSFb)
||(also Hitchhiker's Guide references. and the funky lil' otter people c:)||
it genuinely feels like a ||therapy session after all the shit in UT i love it so much||
i'm sorry for gushing
hasty kayak
never be sorry for gushin pat
elfin wave
like i think that particular questline is peak and probably should be done last to not ruin the other two, lmao
plucky cairn
That tribal questline is my favourite as well
elfin wave
buuuuut i am biased
plucky cairn
It's really good
hasty kayak
in this house we support tataru capitalism
elfin wave
like ||being able to save at least some of the many tribes that Metieon bore witness to really speaks to like the "For those we have lost, for those we can yet save." message of EW and Elysion is just PEAK VIBES GOD|| (yesa yet more NSFb, I enjoy this questline far too much)
also i haven't finished the other two so
too busy on the hildi grind
man it's going to be a while before bringi unlocks Expert/90 roulette.
90 is like, 6.3 with both optional dungeons and Expert is straight up 6.5
shame, they're great sources for Tomestones
I suppose you can do other rouletes with a capped class but that's EXP going to waste
also wonderous tails
probably other stuff i'm forgetting like EW raids but with the story it'll be a long time between each one even if we decide to knock out a tier of Pandemonium a day or something
ah well, no rush, i think you only need 625 ILVL total for 6.5
(Not counting Savages/Extremes/Ultimate, just regular duties)
hasty kayak
ah well, no rush, i think you only need 625 ILVL total for 6.5
which i already have
elfin wave
and you can get 620 gear with uncapped Tomestones, so the extra 5 won't be too bad to get
especially if you go Manderville, since that's the best in slot for EW weapons at 665
elfin wave
which i already have
then my rambling is pointless!
hasty kayak
marketboard went brrr
elfin wave
Unless you want to invest in other jobs and don't want to go bankrupt
i need that gil for GLAM not STATS
... and sometimes Materia
Still, something to keep in mind for the next two and a half months
and then DT will drop and ALL THE GRIND STARTS AGAIN
hasty kayak
i only have two n half mooooonths
plucky cairn
So much content, so little time
elfin wave
Don't feel pressured to do all of it, keep in mind this is two years worth of content
plucky cairn
I actually should start doing the tribe quests very day instead that once in a while, I kinda want to close them all before going into DT
elfin wave
same...
plucky cairn
I still need the Ixal and Moogles from previous expansions
And need to close the ||loporrits||
elfin wave
Problem is EW Crafting because I don't have GSM at 90 yet
plucky cairn
You can start doing the quests a 81
elfin wave
... nvm i already have it at 90
plucky cairn
It's actually meant to be a way to level your crafter
elfin wave
I know, but like having 10 levels over the things i craft guarantees 100% quality with a skill, right
hasty kayak
"not everyone is weird like bringi n levels their crafters via custom deliveries almost exclusively"
plucky cairn
It's usually easy enough without it being at cap, but it's for sure easier
Even if you fuck it up, it's not like you pay for materials anyway, they give it to you
bringi finishd 6.0
They are officially in EW endgame content
hasty kayak
well, almost
plucky cairn
"not everyone is weird like bringi n levels their crafters via custom deliveries...
That is actually the most effective method to do it, but there are other options
hasty kayak
i didnt teeeeeechnically press the finish button on endwalker yet
slim cairn
Smh
hasty kayak
the scions are havin veritable interviews with me
hasty kayak
"estinien, have you considered takin up blacksmithing"
slim cairn
Also bringy takes like a million years to get through a cutscene
plucky cairn
The part they are speaking about is not voiced
It's where you are ||at the Rising Stones and you talk with all the scions in turn about what you'll do now that the group will operate differently and essentially "disband"||
hasty kayak
i like that they repeat their general plans in voiced cutscenes just for "cant be bothered to read" players
and here we are, at long last
hasty kayak
too bad we cant make two line names on discord
this shall suffice
well. my custom deliveries dont roll til tuesday, so no sense in that yet. im spent from those fights, so probably no immediate dive into raids or such. i think ill go visit ||the loporrits||. surely they'll have a tribe questline? 5 was but an hour ago so my dailies are reset
plucky cairn
They are tribe 3 in the summary of activities
slim cairn
Bringywalker is done
hasty kayak
i love your lists gen
slim cairn
Actually i think endbringy is funnier name
plucky cairn
That's the last one, next expansion we'll all be confused trying to figure out where the hell to unlock what together
plucky cairn
So they actually did it, they gave a good conclusion to a MMO story, that's so rare.
rough crescent
See that’s the thing right
You can tell people “it’s a ten year long story and it was concluded with Endwalker”
But you cannot tell people about how masterful that conclusion is
hasty kayak
nod a cult
slim cairn
Bringy, when I got you into this game
You were supposed to join the ascian cult with me
You went the opposite
hasty kayak
nod a better cult
slim cairn
Im starting to think brings and I are playing different games
hasty kayak
spoilerrrrssss
slim cairn
Oh shit I forgot
elfin wave
what did you do gummy
hasty kayak
mentioned ||rejoining||. while, fair its not a term thats self explanatory til you get to shb's mess proper, i just prefer to b overzealous. given we have an 2.x-er here now
finally, time to fight ||bunni depression||
with my fists tools of trade!
so just to make certain-certain, gen there isnt any content i would have to do before msq to preserve sense of continuity, yes? in an extremely unlike me fashion i do feel the need to. try prioritize msq, just so i have at least that worry hangin over my head out of the way
elfin wave
@plucky cairn loremaster we need you
hasty kayak
ill probably start it sometime next week, if brain shiny permits
plucky cairn
Okay lorewise I don't think so
At least up to 6.1
But, I would open the Island Sanctuary first if you feel like doing that
Since the whole theme of that is ||you must be so fucking tired, here, have an island to relax in||
hasty kayak
ough im so glad i did all the map related stuff, not havin flight is bane of existence
plucky cairn
So it makes sense to do it after you finish 6.0 and before getting into new adventures
hasty kayak
alright, ill get that after im done hangin with ||bunnies||
plucky cairn
I'm pretty sure you need to be on your server, in case you are still on lich
hasty kayak
i moved, no worries
hasty kayak
alright, ill get that after im done hangin with ||bunnies||
which SIDENOTE ACTUALLY, i noticed it when credits were scrollin
she had ......|| bunni ears ...... the deity of moon|| ...... devs you are so cheeky
plucky cairn
||Bunnies being on the moon is a japanese folklore thing||
plucky cairn
True
hasty kayak
so i didn't read hc's spoilers obviously, but im guessin ||the combination of graha bringin up omicrons, you tellin me the gatherer tribes entry quest is cafe at the end of the universe where they live, and hc bein a known miner means theyre one of the tribes as well. tbh im really curious if their story really trumphs the loporrits for me. because if it wasnt obvious i fell hard for bunni||
plucky cairn
It'll be interesting to see how you feel about it
Still have to finish one of the tribes so I didn't see the alliance quest at the end either that should tie up all 3 stories
rough crescent
I’ve never done any beast tribes. Probably should, huh
hasty kayak
oh their stuff is fun
and theres some hella cool mounts
i love my drake and griffin for example
plucky cairn
They aren't the best narratives in the game, but you get some outstanding moments
hasty kayak
They aren't the best narratives in the game, but you get some outstanding moment...
i mean, ||dwarves||
thats just unfiltered fun
rough crescent
I was always turned off by the grind for what felt like average cutscenes once in a while yeah
plucky cairn
That's probably the most entertaining one, it's fucking funny th whole way through
rough crescent
When I say I’ve never done them I meant I tried them once four years ago and felt it wasn’t worth my time
But I’ll try again!
hasty kayak
its somethin to do while you wait for your roulette queue to pop, which is when i usually do them
rough crescent
I play healer, I don’t have queues
hasty kayak
i wont say i have perfect record of every day, but maaayyybe ill manage to finish them all before dt
hard to tell
plucky cairn
It's also very low commitment, especially the later you go into the expansion
It's 3 quests a day you take literally 10 minuts to complete at most
rough crescent
The tribe quests are only about the rank up cutscenes, right? Or should one read the individual quests too? Everyone seems to skip through those
hasty kayak
the most annoyin ones are hw's bc the maps are so large lmao
plucky cairn
I usually don't read the individual daily quests unless the name sounds funny
hasty kayak
i found ||the pixies|| had some absolutely delightfully unhinged quests
plucky cairn
If you need to try any of them, I definitely suggest the ||dwarves||
Assuming you have a crafter that can do them
rough crescent
I see, thank you guys!
plucky cairn
Agreed
rough crescent
I’ve got the pixies on rank… 7? Can prob watch the cutscenes on that scroll thingy
minor sorrel
I think I started some tribe quests back in the day, saw it was another rep grind and gave up
hasty kayak
||dwarves are dwarves, i loved the entirety of dreamhopper narrative (that one is so fun to do as a drk), and qitari have everyone's beloved scree meme||
rough crescent
I think I started some tribe quests back in the day, saw it was another rep grin...
Haha same I just can’t with the concept of dailies
hasty kayak
i fuckin thrive on dailies n weeklies, to the detriment of msq lmaoooo
rough crescent
Lemme grind the ranks for four hours straight on a Saturday if i want and then not feel pressured to do it every day to keep up
Ffxiv is super light on dailies so it’s generally fine
hasty kayak
ah yes, hello ||tataruway||
"if you need to look professional, slap a chart on it. works every time"
real supercharging our blueprints moment
minor sorrel
Haha same I just can’t with the concept of dailies
You say that but i've maxed out reputations in WoW
rough crescent
haha wow grind is such a shitfest, i could never
minor sorrel
WoW's still my main MMO so I think for me it's more of a "not gonna grind BOTH" mindset
hasty kayak
i really hope to never get sucked into another mmo, i still want some other hobbies aside from my job and my anime mmo job
minor sorrel
Honestly, other than WoW and FF14 others are meh-ish? Only others worth mentioning these days are maybe Guild Wars 2 and Elder Scrolls? Maybe LOTR?
plucky cairn
Once you are at cap there really isn't that much to get sucked into in FFXIV, unlss you want to go into one of the optional grinds for fancy wapons, levelling all classes, stuff like that.
hasty kayak
one is plenty, given my mindset of Must Try Everything mmo's are such time suckers
plucky cairn
There isn't the same type of gear chasing that WoW has
rough crescent
It’s gonna be hard getting into another mmo if you’re used to how kind XIV is towards your time
“Ah let me just log into my sixth character for this job”
minor sorrel
There isn't the same type of gear chasing that WoW has
I dunno? I find gearing in ff14 harder
hasty kayak
in my brain wow is the classic wow. like i know its not really nowadays, but my brother was really good at it and a good part of my childhood has been spent watchin him raid n such
plucky cairn
It depends what for
hasty kayak
he tried so hard to get me into it n then i fell off at like level 20, brother my apologies
rough crescent
You got out 
minor sorrel
Old wow's grind was pretty awful
hasty kayak
he crafted me all the big bags and everything
i know he still plays the game on weekends sometimes, its nice. in another reality i mightve been playin that instead
minor sorrel
Depending on the time period, that could be a bit expensive or super cheap
minor sorrel
Prob in the cheap era. I think that's.... cataclysm?
Either late WOTLK or early cata
rough crescent
Cataclysm was 2010
I remember this clearly because my friend in high school would NOT shut up about it
hasty kayak
i think i tried gettin into the game some bit before panda happened, i remember panda hype
or well i remember fallin off n then hearin about pandas
rough crescent
Ah that was a bit later then, 2011 or 12
You could have been “enjoying” ffxiv 1.0 at that time
hasty kayak
of course, tauren are cool as hell
minor sorrel
(I was like one of five mithra WAR on my server. Most seem to min/max and went galka (roe) or elvaan (whatever the elves are in ff14)
rough crescent
It’s wild to think ffxi is still online and even receiving new content occasionally
minor sorrel
I think they still maintain it but they aren't going to get new content
Which was a decision in the last year or so i think
@hasty kayak why cleanse! These are miquo'te's ancestors!
hasty kayak
i thought our ancestor is the fat cat
extremely important question @plucky cairn , ||does loporrit tribes get me the minion ive been dying to get, a bunni||
plucky cairn
Yes
minor sorrel
Huh, might be confusing it with something else
rough crescent
I’d def try xi if it weren’t a separate sub
hasty kayak
"whatever shall we do ||with our most wayward Way||" is that referring to ||myownway||, perhaps?
||i believe that was the name anyway, the bunni livin in seclusion||
plucky cairn
1 in 8 chances
hasty kayak
nice!
the tails is like one of the few things i haven't really engaged with now that i semi entered the true levellin era tho maybe i could
plucky cairn
It's something I don't do super actively, most weeks I don't even complete it
But for example if you do rulettes, chances are aftr 2 or 3 days you are gonna have 3-4 slots alrady done without trying, and might as well complete it
Now we can also do EW maps, that we have all of the maps unlocked
hasty kayak
i love this questline already
y e s gimme ||dance remix||
I SPOKE TOO SOON THIS IS EVEN BETTER
:D
hehee the lala joined too :>

My sanctuary~
hasty kayak
now then, back after brief interruption because i decided this requires different clothes for proper relaxation
i also decided that i may as well make it a macro in place of aether compass since i wont b needin that for a while
(it changes my clothes and opens teleport menu so i can head to drydocks lmao)
damn, free tho?
either that academic was really naive or tataru really does have a mafia
elfin wave
Look if you find out the name of that island is Rokkenjima, run
funny umineko reference
hasty kayak
oh wait i should emperor's glam my fists, since this is therapy
~ no weapons necessary ~ n such
elfin wave
i still want to make a shitpost video where I put the Umineko OP over the DT trailer and pretend it's a Umineko remake, lmao
elfin wave
that is a cute NPC

good lord couldnt yall have yelled at me to play faster so id have like two years to spend with this content
i wouldntve listened anyway but damn
