very shallow system with freelancer not actually functioning as expected
Should i get all aetherites when i start since i can't lose xp from dying or is that a retarded idea and i should just unlock them as i progress?
Yes, unlock all of them first. Story quests are not marked for you so you need to travel around to find progress.
How long do the subjobs take to level since they supposedly provide passive buffs at cap like Valors in Bozja.
that one asshole who never plays 1 character but all of them
They're pretty grindy but turbosweats are already hitting around 5-6 maxed.
They take a while. I'm about to hit 2 maxxed at about the same time as hitting lv 20 knowledge. They're the thing to grind out long term.
I kinda like not being able to mix-and-match, forces you to consider your choices.
The jobs are too shallow for it to be a choice unfortunately
There will be more in the future patches right?
I'm already thinking about whether I want survivability or some party support just between Knight and Bard
Yes two more waves of new jobs, one that's just new jobs for South Horn and the other accompanying the second OC zone
Apparently it will be all 27 FF5 + GBA port jobs including Blue Mage and Necromancer
this would be a 10/10 image if it had pubes
he made a new thread
a thread was made
on Anon Babble
on the video games board
crafting is all macros
the macros completely automate the craft to the point that you click 1-2 buttons to do 25+ steps of actions
You're telling me I'm a bad man because instead of moving my mouse over from monitor 2 to 1 to click my macro, I have my macro click the macro instead?
I have my macro click the macro instead
secondlife fags show up
all game discussion ceases
every time...
what is the MMO player's sheer raging hate-boner for second life
Square did Krile dirty in DT, she barely got to spend any time with her parents. What is she watching?
Are we getting 3 more OC zones and 3 more CE zones?
Educational shit, but then she saw some animals going at it on the Discovery Channel and got horny and lonely so she's resisting every urge to pick up that linkshell to call either you or Alphinaud
We were literally supposed to spend holiday time on the beach with Yshtola in bikini and apply suntan on her body
Do demiatma from FATEs drop if you are below level 100? Wondering if I can get a little leveling in with it
hotsprings episode semi-squandered
beach episode completely squandered
I've never seen anything do a hotsprings, beach, AND bathhouse episode, but at this rate it's Square's last chance.
Freelancer is supposed to the bonus job for mastering other ones
will need to do 7.1 and 7.2 MSQ, plus mess with the Alliance and Normal Raids up to this point, but those are fine enough to handle in a handful of days
Any reason besides "lol it's ff14" I should hold off on a resub to catch up so far?
That's what it was in FFV and then some.
best case scenario i can imagine freelancer allowing trait mixing from mastered phantom jobs once all the OC PJs are out, but guess we'll have to wait and see
It's possible they add more to it as more jobs get added.
Please PLEASE stay alive, I need a FFXIV thread that isn't full of culture war retards. Shitposts aren't funny when they're every single thread and everybody's posting the same things over and over.
Do you want to play occult crescent? If no, then don't resub.
If you're patient enough and can wait long enough they'll have a free callback or returners period so you can save the sub money
All current content will probably be dead by then though
You might as well get caught up so you can do the new content. All the battle content has been good and 7.2 MSQ is actually good. 7.1 is whatever.
What are the passive effects from maxing them out? Is it just Valors straight lifted from Bozja like % more HP per tank sub job at max level or is it weird sub job specific stuff like uhhh...whatever that could be maybe something dumb like % chance to poison a target.
Also is there any elemental gear or augmented resistance / law order stuff to make you stronger in the zone? I collected all the shit in Bozja and it made leveling stuff up much more fun, Vipper at like 1.7 speed was a grand time.
If you're not going to try and clear other shit you haven't done like idk if you've gotten done all the Deep Dungeons or shit like BA, but if you aren't going to bother with all that and you feel that you'll finish 7.1, 7.2, and all the raids in a few days then you're probably a player that paces themselves such that you'll finish this content in the one month you sub (unless you're into crafting too, CE takes a good while to get anything decent). That being said, 7.3 will probably be out right at the end of that month.
Apparently so, it only cares that you have the quest active for demiatmas to start dropping
I really did only a few of the two Deep Dungeon paths and didn't clear them all. It just got exhausting running the same thing but slightly different over and over. And I've barely scratched Eureka, while hitting a stopping point at the end of the first Bozja zone. Also got Pandemonium to close up eventually, and after that, the EW and DT Role Quests since I got a lot of stuff to lv90 but not everything handled on that front just yet.
Besides an optional dungeon or two, I think the only other shit I have untouched is entirely Crafters/Gatherers and the Beast Tribe stuff.
just wait two months for 7.3 so you can at least confirm the shitty expansion story is over or not before subbing
The problem is 7.3 shouldn't be too far away time wise but by then Occult might be a lot more dead.
Honestly I'd probably crank 1 sub and do everything you want in Occult, do the beast tribe dailies, and then wait for 7.4x or 7.5x to come back.
oh wait deep dungeon, not the other fucking multi-choice shit, i cleared the main story for the palace of the dead but not max floors, haven't even gotten a party together for heaven on high
Passives are just a straight Dmg/Healing increase like Bozja. Not sure on exact %, but it very much just that. There is 745 gear from the vendor, with 2 levels of upgrades to them. Each gives +1/2/3 to Special Atttribute stat, which just boosts Phantom abilities.
Yeah, so you seem like you run through shit pretty fast, I say maybe hold off at least one more month if you don't plan on doing any old content.
Arguably more African.
Super rich in natural resources (Aether)
Sunken Temple of Qarn and Pharos.
Lots of Desert, Savannas and Tropical climate.
Continent shape.
Can anyone say if the new zone is fun?
I don't know if I should play again or not.
Start Dawntrail, see those beautiful waterfalls and some gigantic bridge
yo, this looks sick
400 hours of following wukky
finally she fucked off
fag rabbit goes all "WoL let's go explore"
"BEHOOOOLD, THE GREATEST CONSTRUCTION IN TURALLL, THE BEST BRIDGE OF ALL BRIDGES!"
the gate finally opens
you're about to enter the bridge
FATE TO BLACK
YOU'RE ON THE OTHER SIDE NOW
THE BRIDGE IS A FUCKING LOADING ZONE BACKGROUND
YOU CANNOT SET FOOT ON IT
I am fucking livid. It's so stupid. It could be handled better. Let me at least walk a couple feet on it, let me fucking look around, check the waterfalls etc. This could've been some simple solo duty like "blast some alaniggers on the bridge to restore trade route". Or nigger rabbit could be following you and explaining lore of the next zone (similarly to meteion in the EW dungeon) instead of doing a lore dump before and after crossing the bridge.
fuck man
I'm surprised how much fun I'm having, even though I've mainly just been doing FATEs and CEs like it's Bozja all over again.
Time Mage is pretty fun so far, you can dualcast/swiftcast the comet once a minute. Which is pretty obviously not the most broken shit ever when you look at some of the other jobs, but it synergizes pretty well with casters/red mage. Monk's (the other job I've leveled a bit) damage buff is probably more damage overall if you can keep it up, but kicking shit is daunting when mechanics get in the way.
Join one of the discords to do Forked Tower because it's the only way to do this fucking content
Takes 2hs to set up
Finally get in
Dumb tranny "raid leader" kills the entire raid in the first mechanic by calling it wrong
I fucking hate that I have to deal with these people to do this
sir this is an occult crescent thread
i'm gonna have to ask you to fuck off with the outdated 7.0 complaining
You get to fight on the bridge during the uhhh...allied role quests? I'm not sure if they have a name but when you finish all the role quests you unlock the final set of ones and deal with the cute evil rabbit leader.
It's actually super fucking plain jane and lame though. On the flipside, it is in fact just a bridge so...
You get to fight on it after you do all the Role Quests and we're probably going to have a "Battle on the Bigger Bridge" against Greg.
jeet enix
It helps I played in the JP dub
Does forked tower level you up or grant anything worth doing? It sounds more like a BA or DRS experience than a Castrum Lactus Litore from your description.
Play the game and find out you annoying fuck
ohhhhhhhhh nobody plays the game it's all second life
gameplay question
ohhhhhhhhh how dare you commit this microaggression against me
why the fuck even have a thread about vidya if we're not going to discuss vidya. You're a retarded twat
Yeah, it's BA again with pretty much the same type of rewards. Mount, items to enhance the OC gear and some other items.
I just want to do it because I find the fights fun, but the whole setup phase is just retarded, at least DRS was simple to queue. I don't understand why they went back on that.
forked tower has a tower puzzle before the last boss
Oh God
Eureka wasnt perfect but it's absolutely insane how backward we've progressed in the last seven years for forays. The only good thing I can say about OC is that you aren't gated by level to explore if you want.
get forked
You now remember all the IDIOTS that said gil was useless
You mean jumping?
You're referring to Chemist?
Back to Anon Babble with you.
Please tell me it's less awful than BA entry at least.
oh no the instance closed and people are still outside
oh no the instance is bugged so Ovni isn't spawning
oh no someone stabbed in and took people's spot
oh no you didn't get the ovni buff
Absolute fucking shite on top of running all over the fucking map and other mummery.
It's the exact same, instance fishing and all. No Ovni for entry though, you either buy the item at the shop for guaranteed entry or just camp the portal for a chance to get picked.
These random gold coins that sell for 300k surely they'll be used for something
For fucks sake, 2 steps forward 3 steps back.
can't patch the game without an active subscription
I always forget this retarded caveat.
that's just them trying to fix the economy because money just funnels into the 10 autistic omnicrafters on every server while the people that actually play the game are poor as dirt.
t. nearly gil capped player
Give me some gil then
You can buy the chemist potions with silver coins and they're cheaper
BA entry is kino because of the sniping you can do
Fond memories of farming salt from Discord groups
Tummy...
so whats the coolest subjob
macro instead of plugin
NGMI
Chemist followed by 'Zerker
What a nigger
Blue Mage, once it's added
botched relics again
no duels
wide empty shit again
most phantom jobs are useless in Firked Tower
every item is already under 1mil on MB
Jesus christ
Geomancer, Chemist you're rich and want to blow 300k gil per burst window, Cannoneer for big boom memes
wait u can use actual gil to attack
Yes samurai should be able to throw gil too but I never see anyone actually using samurai
No, you buy potions that you can use as Chemist to fully refresh HP/MP, so any job that uses MP to burst like a BLM or DRK can do that as much as you want.
SAM's last skill needs to consume a chest item you buy to be activated too
It's pretty underwhelming but also it's one of the jobs that need to be bought with gold coins that are a pain to farm, so not many people have it.
It's kinda easy to get gold coins since even level 1 mobs give like 3 but there's still not much people doing gold coin farming
Put your janitor application in
kinda not worth it unless you're buying armor upgrade items to avoid forked tower
It’s a slightly better bozja which was a slightly better Eureka
It’s fine but not worth the two expansion, multi year wait
No one liked duels
Does anyone have a list of the Thief/Sam/Geo skills? Ive heard thief can make your group earn extra gold coins from mobs but at which job level?
Ninja can do it with it's mugging move too
Nice, thanks
How long until there's a plugin to
Move to the magic stone if it's nearby
Switch to monk and apply the monk buff
Switch to bard and apply the bard buff
...
Switch back to my initial job
Also, how many 30 minute buffs are there like that? So far I've just seen monk, bard, and knight.
Just those three.
wat level should i be to start doin FATES/CEs?
I started doing them when I hit level 3
any level
I thought they were cool.
I been playing for like 20+ hours and I gotten a few jobs to max and a few to half way done so it’s going take a minute to get all jobs to max
This grind is insane man holy shit
2 pieces of gear took forever to get, and I only now have Ph. Samurai, Geomancer and Thief...and that's not even getting into how long it takes to level those holy shit
It’s for revives for blood tower
bozja is dogshit.
It's been long enough that I don't feel as though I care anymore. The funny thing is, that should technically mean there's more content to play for a whole month but there really isn't In a single week I could go through it all if I take my time.
If I rush I can probably be done within a day.
That's not worth a sub, but if I wait another year it's not like they'll add much more to it either.
I'm going to wait till 8.0 since this occult crescent shit might get a eureka level rework since it sucks so much ass.
Probably Oracle with the funny do 90% of your hp to do big damage, also it will kill you if you don’t have enough
market tranny
lmao. eat shit.
Keep in mind RMT bots have been running this whole time. There are actual trannies who got their bots to keep working during the 7.x draught.
And not even THAT is enough to prop up the fucking artificial marketplace.
This new minion is pretty cute, it spins and when it spins it throws out gems
Have they used those portraits of the Scions in swimsuits for anything?
can use ninja’s bunshin with cannoner to throw out a ton of cannon because it’s a weapon skill
pld can throw out a 150k nukes with comet
Wonder what other combos can you use
I'm sure they said that at least CEs just ignore levels altogether
They're probably the fastest way to level up
get 3 records of different ruins
you actually need 3 specific ones and the game doesn't tell you which
thanks I guess
Explore nigga
Fuck, my big fear was that jobs would interact with phantom jobs in unique ways like this, which is what I wanted
But now it means I might have to buy DT since OC in general seems fun
It is bullshit, genuinely look for that map that has the ones needed by the quests on it
I got like 4 or 5 cunts killed by trying to venture to the funny tower anon, that's not always a good idea
Just have to use ninja’s invisibility if ya smart
i got a 440k raging blow on my white mage/berserker
you already made this post
Oh cool bro, guess we should bring them back then!
It cost 10k
Genuinely not worth wasting your time looking for a few specific points. Just look them up
I was having fun, until there's a emergency maintenance tonight at 11PM PST.
Initial thoughts
I wish the mobs had the aggro range of the eureka ones, it's too easy getting away from them
seems like people are not partying up, except for chain farming
ranger subjob made want to level a DPS because a flat 15% dh/crit buff sounds absurd with some classes
CE fights have been fun, but I wonder how much time will pass until I get bored of them
Overall, think it was worth the resub, but I'll probably be done when it runs out.
The elixir is 300k.
for 10 minutes in one zone
So wait. Yoshi said only 7.2 and 7.3 for this year? but isn't 7.3 planned for the last week of July or first week of August? more than 5 months for 7.4 is brutal
7.4 should be Nov and Dec at the latest, what's your source?
biggest content patch in hours
thread not posted at a shit time
100 posts
?
because we're playing the game
well i just logged out for the evening, but you get it
do the urn fates give anything cool
not really. course i've only gotten 2 gold chests
So he confirms 7.2 and 7.3 will be in 2025, why did you take that to mean 7.4 wouldn't be?
Because apart he didn't mention of it, yoshida said he didn't want to do big patches on holidays and 7.4 is a big patch because is the last savage tier
It would be in November. If they think it would land on Thanksgiving, they could push it to the first or second week of December. It wouldn't be Xmas time without some EXTREME delays, you are pushing a fiction.
you already made this post
get a job
silver coffers that spawn in specific locations, give high grade glamour set items and jet black/pure white dye
Lion Rampant makes me want to throw up.
Trying to asses the safe spots for all the shit that rotates in both directions is nausieting.
I repeatedly die to everything in this. Maybe it's a sign that I don't have "it" anymore and should just retire
It's one after the other, so don't bother thinking about the safe spots for the cross-bar or the pearls until the first mechanic's finished.
I haven't been able to to do any large group content without dying since Dun Scaith. I die (frequently) to every alliance raid, all the FATEs and CEs in Field Operation content, and any of the "major" world FATEs or S Ranks unless they are zerg rushed by dozens of people. I'm just soooo glad there's so many other dead bodies around me, I wouldn't be able to do the content if it was just me.
meant for too
I also take some solace in the deaths of everyone around me
FreeLancer doesn't have the ability to use two jobs at once
Chemist doesn't have it's "Mix" Command
Time Mage has a Mage Masher ability instead of Haste hell even Stop but no here is Slowga
into the trash this shit patch goes
inb4 WoWtard
I love FF XIV but jesus christ I expected better after DT
WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY THINKING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I'm fucking seething cause I wanted Chemist and Time Mage as actual jobs
This i way better than bozja holy shit. its fun too.
I don't think having jobs as Phantom Jobs precludes them from being jobs in the main game. BRD, SAM, and MNK return as Phantom Jobs after all.
Meh, does your performance even matter in CEs? You get rewarded even if dead, I'm sure they knew it was bullshit
Half of my deaths are to the netcode, I'm moving out of the AoE with 1/4th of the cast bar left only to get deleted by it
Didn't Yoshida say it was a never ever for Time Mage? The rest could still exist, we have already existing classes as phantoms too
I'm disappointed Freelancer doesn't allow you to mix and match 5 active and 5 traits abilities however you please.
It's one type of content where balance concerns should be completely ignored.
Meh, does your performance even matter in CEs?
In Bozja clearing without getting hit got you the points to duel.
Here it doesn't matter. I was face first on the floor 90% of the fight against the Berserker and ended up getting a field note, a demiatma, and a soul stone or whatever they're called all from that one fight.
im sure youre always facefirst on the floor too.
Too many job concepts were wasted on two jobs being mashed together.
No ranger because the archery aspect is half baked into bard.
Astro is a retarded amalgam of Time Mage and Oracle even though they've been progressively pruning time magic from its kit over the years.
astrologian too is a really fucking weird choice in hindsight, all three heavensward jobs were made to power-wank final fantasy tactics (war of the lions-like dark knight, machinist based on mustadio, astrologian based on orran durai) and all three of them had to abandon those designs over time and err more traditionally because they don't fucking work for theme, interest, or design
Freelancer is the job that gets more power the more jobs you have maxed, pretty sure when you have all other jobs at 25 it’s going be fucking crazy. Just the fact it has a skill that heals you for 30% of your hp with just a gcd cool down is fucking crazy
Freelancer back in FFV didn't literally mix jobs directly. Instead you mastered them and took the abilities unlocked by doing so across the game's length to mix and match as you pleased, like Black and Time Magic on one character, or Cover and Counter. If Phantom Jobs are any worthwhile shit in the long term of OC, that's the culmination by the end of all this: Freelancer getting an upgrade to equip whatever abilities together.
Mastery stat buff isn't even exclusive to freelancer.
The job caps at 10 and so far it's only good for grinding treasure chests
yeah freelancer already and just as it is seems built for people who've mastered 5+ jobs and they're just in there for fucking around, loot, or tome grinding for relics
Yeah and not to mention it's literally the first part of the foray content
It's always possible for them to "unlock" freelancer but I expect them to do it in 7.56 while waiting for Westwolves.
You’re thinking too small anon, I’m thinking in the future, like some of the classes also nuke/ death stuff and it’s only going get wilder as it goes on
Honestly I wonder if it can even balance itself in the long term for this sort of stuff. 25 Jobs, meta-mixes, some insane abilities like Tanks basically healing off anything but one-shots, paying money to do nukes, boosting party factors, crazy stuff all around and some super crazy party mix-ups if done right. Which is probably why Forked Tower doesn't fuck around. By the point of this thing's endgame they're either gonna need to go Baldesion Arsenal or beyond just to keep the challenge factor up, but it's still at least people setting up their own stuff instead of just generic party compositions.
By the time you actually master and unlock all ten jobs you’ll have done, seen and gotten everything you wanted
It wasn't just that the story was bad either but it actively shit on and ruined personalities and characters that have been in the game for years, putting them down all to elevate Wuk Lamat.
Alisaie had a lobotomy before Dawntrail I'm certain because that thing that was in Tural, in Dawntrail was not Alisaie.
Does anyone know what the gear's "special attribute" does yet?
alisaie has always been low iq and a shitter and the worst levellieur.
On the contrary, if you're sticking around that long, you're in for the gil at that point and chests seem to have pretty decent loot table.
so I don't get one thing, it seems OC isn't going to get a new zone until 7.5? then when is the next step for the relics?
I assume there will be raids similar to Delubrum Reginae in the interim.
Unless they just forgo having a step every patch
We get a job update before the new zone.
There might be more CE added to the first zone.
Every way, every patch will add a step.
Everything in the chests has dropped to 1 gil
I thought there was going to be a meta, like healers use phantom bard, tanks use knight etc, but you can basically use whatever you want
It increases the damage of the skills that say they "scale with item level".
Apparently tanks can pick up Chemist for the free res spam because they are the least likely to get killed and so they can be responsible for picking up everyone else that died
Is this a single player jrpg in an mmo, that people are paying monthly for, by a company that thinks jrps is racist?
are any of the CEs sexy demon chicks?
Next thread, jackass.
No but we got the cheeked up plant bitches from Grand Cosmos back
And the tentacle bitch that uses the calofisteri model (same as Terminus Idolator)
is pazuzu up?
I've been having fun. The fights are really fun with some being near the level of Extremes.
My two major gripes is the story being an incredibly dull, flimsy excuse to just go to a mystery island, and the phantom exp to level the phantom jobs just being way too grindy. I can live with Atma for the first relic but no way I'm grinding out all these phantom jobs.
Bozja's story was messy and had an unsatisfactory end with too many loose ends, but at least it was interesting. Hope this picks up in the second part/alliance raid if there is one.
bozja was dogshit and so was matsuno slop. kys
What are your hopes for the next Liveletter? Here's what I think could potentially happen:
Yoshida fervently apologises
Kate makes excuses
Sena Bryer is there for some reason and make shit worse
Hiroi gets beheaded by Koji Fox
Kate demands people to like Wuk Lemat
They ignore all the critique
it started smelling like poop and curry in the thread 3 minutes ago
I love killing myself with Oracle's Predict.
Content designed to be grindy
complains its too grindy
Stg you guys are fucking retarded.
Part comes up where WoL has to 'wed' one of his companions in order to proceed due to some cultural ritual or some shit before they let you fight some big bad deity or something
Choices are Y'shtola, Krile, Alisaie or Tataru
Each have varying reactions.
Y'shtola: Well.. I expected this sooner or later.. I suppose it can't be helped.
Krile: M-me? Oh.. oh my.. with me? A-are you sure? I.. yes! Of course! Yes!
Alisaie: L-lets just get this done with!.. don't tell father.. or mother.
Tataru: *grins menacingly*
Honestly I'm fine with the job grind but can't take the atma shit. Not because it takes long, I want relics to take a while but because it's fucking low rng shit and not a big grind I can keep progress of like the bozja or eureka relics and it sucks that after doing it once you are back to getting the others for tomestones like endwalker. Give me a bigass grind that has me gather thousands of items and that's cool, but fuck getting like 20 stones with low as fuck drop chance.
For as low as the drop rates were back in ARR, I still look back on atma farming nostalgically somehow
Seeing people run around all the different zones was comfy
Don't even have DT but maybe it's not as comfy instanced
Krile practicing so she can do it to WoL
you can get them from overworld fates too and some people are doing that, but most are in the instance because you can level up your phantom jobs at the same time
There's a FATE with a Succubus with massive tits
Scion Dating/wedding.
another shitter. lmao.
fuck off back to Anon Babble
the coffee mug in 7.2 is shilled hard.
Can you autocrit a subjob gcd using machinist rearm? Like the berserker deadly blow?
Sounds kinda strong desu
Anon, they cut the problem down entirely because once you've got the Atma the first time, you never need to do them again for any other weapons, it skips to the Tomestone phase. It's literally just your initial grind so the content isn't irrelevant too quickly.
the folder
From what I can tell is none of the phantom job skills can crit or direct hit. However normal dmg buffs work in conjuction with them, so PLD FoF, GNB NM and even BLM enochian.
Jesus christ do none of you fuckers read the posts you are replying to. I have no problem with how long it takes and I don't like the tomsestone shit.
to be fair it's almost 4am so my reading skills are a bit hindered
Fair enough anon sorry for being agressive.
I don't like how niche many of the skills are, they're clearly meant for forked tower or are just complete memes
Bugmen love their gacha/gambling
I honestly like how some of them are complete fucking nonsense, the game needs a few things like that. Oracle's starfall hitting both the enemies and you, and oracle straight up putting a 50k potency DoT on you if you are indecisive is funny as fuck.
Occult is fun as fuck but fucking dammit I can't get any drops except the notes. I've gotten two demiatmas while my friend has more than he needs of some types and two job stones, fucking jealous.
You have to apply Doom and use Steal Weapon in some enemies to progress Forked Tower
SOVL
I don't care for Forked Tower and think that skipping the mandatory instance for more CEs/another zone would have been better. it is just such dead content that only applies to the few people who liked BA.
7 people answered the Occult Crescent poll in the previous thread. Suffice it to say no one is playing XIV anymore.
Is it doable without discord? I'm already 20 and itching to do it
I think a lot of people might be just playing the game instead of shitposting about it.
check out videos for forked
this fucker is the first one to pop up
XIV content creator are such cancer.
I don't think so, you need a lot of coordination and some people with specific phantom jobs.
Fuck ecelebs.
I do find it funny how that guy is forever tied to the game he hates because his viewership would crash and burn if he quit the hardcore raider shtick.
portal sniping is back
WoW solved this in 2005
FFHIV solved this in Bozja
lmao
someone is reposting a vent I did months ago
Man, what a time to be alive.
That's not how it works, though.
you need a lot of coordination
Really unpopular opinion: but content like that needs to be 4 man stuff and not these weirdly huge raids. It would be cool to infiltrate the tower with a small group and being able to go different ways depending on what sub jobs you have and such. But the devs really, really don't get role play content at all.
The fact that they bleed out of their containment zone to actively ruin every other MMO with their faggotry?
That fucking sucks
savage
discord content (but can reasonably be done in pf)
chaotic
discord content
exploratory zone
discord content
I'm tired boss, atleast the rest of the zone is fun without discord shit.
TRVST THE PLAN ANON
BATTLE ON THE BIGGEST BRIDGE TRIAL COMING IN HILDIBRAND
Go to Forked Tower portal
Put in 2 items
you can snipe the portals
Why you want to shag that cat anon?
Honest question.
There were more than seven replies to that poll. I know that because I replied to it after the post about it only getting seven replies.
meant for
Variant was a proof nobody gives a fuck about this kind of content.
AI
its over
Variant was proof that no one cares about anything unless there's a carrot at the end of the stick.
I can't even remember what the rewards were. A minion for one of them, and Criterion was even less worth it?
No matter the carrot, people would read the guides and rush straight through every route without much care.
Plenty of people like to fantasize how they want branching immersive dungeons like old BRD, but nobody actually wants to engage with that content.
How much fun are you having anons? How is the grind? What is your favorite phantom job? Mine is Oracle.
crafting is all macros
Behold the smoothest of brains.
Anons I know most of you faggots don't care but the Hildibrand quests have been excellent so far, genuinely the only good thing to come out of solution 9, they can finally do some noir kino.
i mean to be fair, the Variant routing was some real fucking esoteric shit.
if you go down this path you'll get this route
but if you kill enemies in a specific pattern as hinted vaguely by a prior thing you could've missed examining, and then proceed to light three candles, then run over and do a series of emotes in front of an unmarked object, you'll get this secret boss route
not even listing something specific, its been too damn long, but seriously, how are they NOT expecting people to hit up guides
They keep making Nashu sexy.
variants were great. hancock had a great dungeons. once again raid trannies want "content" but when they cant read a guide they cry and seethe and dilate.
i play for the challenge and mechanics
no you dont shitters.
The secret routes are literally spelled out for you in plain English if you just read the lore entries. It's not hard at all to solve them and looking up a guide just ruins the whole point. You may as well watch youtube instead.
based arthars being 40 years old and playing video games all day and night while his wife looks after their 5 kids and makes him dinner
I did almost all of them blind minus one route in Rokkon.
The biggest problem is that it's so boring to repeat the whole dungeon again to try something else, there needs to be a way to speed things up or be less monotonous.
She has always been one of the sexiest characters in the game
"Here, give this to the detective"
gives you an egg
"From the lady."
peak fucking fiction
It really wasn't that difficult if you actually pay attention.
Case in point.
Variant was just savage fights but for 4 people
I think OC would be insanely popular if they put this subjob system into bespoke 4-man dungeons accessible from the instance instead of forked tower's 48-man discord shitshow
I always wonder what it's like to grow up with a streamer parent, must be miserable
I'd probably want to become one too, but there's 0 chance you can prepare for or bank on something like that
I wonder if the kids even understand playing videos games is a "job" and not something he's doing for fun while ignoring them
That's criterion, doofus.
Variant was a piss easy branching dungeon with 12 different routes.
Oh right, but they're pretty much the same thing; the "variant action" system was practically nothing
They said they were making ONE variant/criterion dungeon this expansion.
What if it's inside Occult Crescent?
