>HAHA LOOK HE DID THE FUNNY FACEis this supposed to be funny?
I agree it should be a blue collar sex joke to appeal to my mature and elevated 22 year old mentality
>>738331580Bro he's in ripped clothes, faceplanted into the ground.Its funnier the 57th time I swear.
>>738331580it's the japanese equivalent of "bro haha sex and booze and drugs 420 haha"
final fantasy as sakaguchi envisioned
>>738331580it was, the first 2 times
>>738331812tank stance status?
>>738331580It's a Japanese humor. It's not for everyone.
Prove you actually play the game: post your total fish caught.
>>738331951A friend of mine got into XIV solely because it has fishing.
>>738331951The only fun fishing is ocean fishing and spearfishing.
>>738331580Generals belong on /vg/
>>738332295Seething belongs in your head.
>>738331580LMAO!!!!!
>>738331951Fishing is the most performative shit you can do in XIV, I respect SEAmonkies AFK grinding their 30k accursed hoards more than fishers.
>>738331580skipped every single cutscene of that sidequest
>>738332496why is this motherfucker so zesty
Can someone tell me what's the current drama between Xenos and Mrhappy?
>>738332671Xenos is acting like a nigger and Happy told him to chill out. That's basically it.
>>738332671it didn't amount to anythingxeno sperged outhappy told him to grow upxeno continued to sperg outhappy went back to doing whatever i guess fishing
>>738332671Some raidag eceleb baloney that only normgroids care about. They performative grifters skip the story and don’t play the game
>>738331580When you're a worthless jaded faggot on the verge of suicide I can imagine not a lot of things are funny. I imagine in your constant asshurt state you just get angry at everything, hence the state of this shithole website.
>>738331580let whimsy into your heart anon. things are allowed to be silly
>>738332737>>738332753Gaslighting at it's finest. Tell he truth now.
>>738331951>"fishing">look inside>50 input macro flowcharts and excel spreadsheets
>>738333476I did. Quite literally what happened.
>>738331580Least Nashu is unbelievably cute.
I like halmarut
>>738333510this is what's keeping me from trying out fishingthat and the fact that I have no inventory space at the best of time
>>738333476That's quite literally what happened.

my only fishing accomplishment is doing the ARR quest chain for the nepto dragon.
>>738333712Errrrrr, errr, I played maplestory today.
>>738333658>no collarbonewhat the fuck is this
>>738333510>"content">look inside>its fate farming in an instance
>>738333526>>738333695Now try again with the truth. If you've nothing to fear then you've nothing to hide.

>>738333658hey wait she wasn't naked here
>>738333834
>>738333812I did.
>>738333712I played IV today.
>>738333964I'll give you one last chance at being honest, I know, a novel concept and it pains you when you do it. But if you've nothing to fear by telling the truth then you should tell the truth.
>>738333812That was the truth, alebitough.
>>738334060Why do I need another chance at doing what I already did?
>>738332671>xenos: NOOOO I DONT WANT WARRIOR TO BE THE OFF-TANK IN THE NEW EVOLVED™ COMBAT MODE FROM THE UPCOMING FINAL FANTASY XIV EXPANSION - EVERCOLD™ THAT WILL BE RELEASED IN JANUARY 2027>mrhappy: heh stop being so bald about it B^) our lord and savior YoshiP knows bestAfter this scripted twatter moment, both of them successfully collected their paychecks and used their cash on e-hookers and e-poker sites.
>>738333852Yeah guess my game bugged or something haha
>>738334084>>738334137Ah so the lie continues because you've got a narrative to push. Yes you lied
>>738334282No, I said exactly what happened.
>>738332737>>738332753>>738332825>>738334185That's it? I read it was related to Kate and Sena.
>>738333712Did the 13th route in Merchant's Tale twice for the TT card. Ran the latest Alliance Raid for the weekly loot. Might play some more in an hour or two. I still need to get the latest relic weapon. I've been slacking off recently, so I'm catching up.
is it really just 1 nigga replying to himself over and over again to derail threads?
>>738331951
feels good to be back home
>>738334356cute fish
>>738331898Apparently Shield Oath is folded into Provoke now, stances for tanks period appear to be dead
>>738334330No, you lied. You didn't cover any of the harassment, why would you? Because it's inconvenient for your narrative.
>>738334356post halmasmut
>>738334431No, I said what happened. Anything to add before I move on from this?
>>738334334Yeah he chimped out about Kate and Senna.
>>738334447
>>738334282>>738334330>>738332671>>738334334Can somebody tell me what you did in Final Fantasy today?
>>738334429Ever since they added Increased Emnity to Tank AOEs, its entirely possible to hold aggro in dungeons without stance on.
>>738334334Xenos said something like "WAR OT is as stupid as Kate" and Mrhappy pulled the "I don't disagree BUT" card.
>>738334424Your home is looking rather blurry, nonny.
>>738334498kek
>>738334356I wish to do unspeakable things to this creature. Like holding hands.
>>738334185>stop being so bald about it
>>738334429What do we think of tank stance being dead, bros?
>>738334651I miss cleric stance.
>>738334469I don't like liars and that's what you are.
>>738334651
>>738334651A long time coming, really, tank stance has been fundamentally pointless since the loss of DPS stance. Unless you're an off-tank, there's no real situation where you'd want to turn it off
>>738334697Do you like Final Fantasy? Did you play it today?
>>738334429Depending where they go with every job getting 1 gimmick button I could see Drk or War getting some form of Deliverance or Darkside back
>>738334697Okay, anon. Have a good day.
I think he knows that warrior has quite literally nothing over dark knight in an off tank position.
>>738334185I love Feo Ul and I aim to make my little branch into my big bride.
>>738331580We used to live in a society where silly faces and silly walks was enough to make people guffaw
>>738334761WAR was the job that did the most with the stance system anyways, I think it'd be neat if they got DPS/defense stances back to reintroduce the different uses of Fell Cleave vs. Inner Beast from Stormblood and prior
>>738334847i want them to have to beg for esunas again
Will we get Dark Arts?
Tank stance was always pointless>turn on>do 123>turn off>dps push diversion>NIN pushes smokescreenThere was never a reason for it to exist. You can cope and moan that old good new bad all you want but it was the most brainless retarded shit in the game.
>>738334803DRK should pump out damage at the cost of its own life but then we run into the problem where it does more damage than a PLD getting all his parries and then people take a DRK as MT and then bring a WAR OT.Which I'm perfectly fine with if people want to play on hard mode with their main tank having pingponging health, but we know the playerbase would scream that it's a "problem" that needs to be "fixed", so I'm wondering what they'll do there.
>>738334985If you want the real result. No one brings MT and double OT continues as normal.We've had this parry shit before, it doesn't end well.
>>738334985nice jaggies on that sword zero
>>738334985Thats part of why they're keeping the old mode around isn't itLet the designer guy stick to his guns for at least one expansion and see where it goes
>>738334334Xeno chudded out on main and he's ascending to Fell For It Again valhalla>>738334916I kinda think "stance dancing" didn't actually exist unless you were a WHM or AST and there still wasn't any scenario where you really needed to flip stances beyond raidwide healing or other emergencies, tanks definitely didn't need to do it and SCH didn't need to do it because they had percentage based heals
>>738335039>No one brings MT and double OTor you bring 1 MT, 1 dragoon, and have dragoon handle any 2 tank mechanics with sky high
>>738334651job design has been in a steady decline since the removal of dps stances on tanksthis is the nail in the coffin
I did leveling roulette as DRK and got Vanguard. The healer was a SCH. The only one that healed anybody the entire dungeon was the fairy. Had to use living dead on two trash pulls and DPS eventually died to raidwides etc. and we eventually ask if there's a problem.>because u aren't pressing ur mitsAll mits were on cool down at all times. Should I report this nigger?
OKAY so where is ff14 content? 7,5 brought nothing to the table - 1 extreme and fuck you. SOMEWHERE SOON players getting new gathering botfarm and ultimate okay, this is something but still shit. and IN FUCKING AUTUMG, which is half of year from now, we will get new eureka, and this is at least playable and okayand then like, half of year more of no contentAND in 8.0 will be 0 content, only like, 2 extremes and then 4 raids (and 4 raids is okay)
>>738335096If you didn't die whats the problem
>>738335083this is too much sovl for ffxiv
>>738335039"No one brings MT" isn't a thing that's going to happen if PLD's Satisfaction best parry remains untouched, that shit did almost as much damage as the last hit of their sword-magic combo, ~50.5k vs. ~65k if memory serves from the footage
>>738335039All they have to do is make PLD getting perfect parries do more damage than an OT.
>>738335096You should have vote kicked him after the second trash pull and finished the dungeon with three since healing wasn't happening anyways.
>>738335096please understand he was parsing
>>738335070I like her sword, it's still exclusive to her
>>738335164The DPS died, which slows down the dungeon to a crawl. So it's a problem.
>>738335152>and IN FUCKING AUTUMG, which is half of year from now, we will get new eurekaanon north horn is one month after the gathering zone and ultimateseptember is MSQ part 2 and beastmaster
>>738334916It was a party synergy mechanic. If the group was competent and used their skills as you said then the tank could drop tank stance and do more damage as a reward. If they sucked, the tank stance had to stay on.
>>738332636Cos he knows it makes people seethe.
>>738331580it's japanese humor, actually kind of cute when you get used to it, like retarded puppy cute
>>738332516>AFK grinding their 30k accursed hoardsHow do you do this?
>>738335279I concede to that.
>>738335096A healer's job is to DPS. It's not his fault you can't TBN your DPS make up for him not healing.
>>738331580This is a Hildibrand board, show your respect
>>738335276"Party synergy" and it's set and forget lmao.
>>738335096scholars are shitty green dps I usually abandon duty when I see one
>>738334498WE LOVE CHIKAWA ON /v/
>>738335259Just do more damage idiot.
>>738335096at least they let you use living dead almost any time i tried they will do anything they can to prevent it from working

>>738335578But third party tools are against TOS! I find it hard to believe people would break the rules so nonchalantly like that...
>>738335174Everything must do the same ammount of damage or people will bitch anon that is law.
>>738334651there was literally no point to stances. I'm genuinely shocked they survived as long as they did. I could see them making some sense if there were multiple stances to choose from (enmity/damage/move speed). >but muh tank swapsif you can't manage enmity without a "turn off enmity" button, you're a shitter

>>738335280No it’s the kind that sincerely good and beloved, only mongoloids think it’s tongue in cheek appreciation. Probably because they are more used to lowbrow humor in games like dispatch or some other dipshit game
>>738335662That's why I'm looking forward to Evolved since it seems like the devs don't give a fuck about balance. Dragoon getting Sky High with a stated 90% damage reduction while in the air was something I didn't think would ever happen, and probably wouldn't have ever happened under their older balance considerationsHell, I don't think the heavy Reaper buffs we just got would have happened under older balance considerations
>Want to grind poetics for relic skin>Bozja and Zadnor are dead
>>738331580Less about the humor and more shocked that this level of animation quality is still passable in 2026, in one of the most profitable MMO:s of the last decade
>>738335757>Dragoon getting Sky High with a stated 90% damage reduction while in the air was something I didn't think would ever happen, and probably wouldn't have ever happened under their older balance considerationsSame lol.The week before FanFest I literally said that I would love for PvE Dragoon to get something like Sky High for job fantasy, and people said nah it'll never happen.

>>738335684Jack was the perfect protagonist, just cuts straight to the pointNo reddit millennial chungus dialogue, just says it how it is
I haven't played dragoon since SHB. is evolved REALLY a full rework or just a condensing of buttons and moving the rotation order around
>>738331580HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>738335940it was either that or SE goes insolvent after years of failures
>>738335790so is the janny shitflinging about these ecelebs? this got deleted pretty fast
>>738331653Anon, blue collar means crude and white collar refined...
>>738336014Evolved really is a full rework yes, depends on the job for the severity but all jobs are getting touched pretty heavilyhttps://www.youtube.com/live/_aCGzxWczCM?si=oKetPXZXI4H_UYR2&t=20506 You now must hit your positionals or you're sandbagging and the only way to ignore positionals is High Jump, renamed "Vengeful Jump," which is only up often enough to ignore about half of your total positional requirements so it's not a permanent True NorthDragoon's lead-up is now to Sky High, the PvP limit break, which takes you into the air and has 90% damage reduction while you're up there
>>738336084Plausible deniability for an Asmon screenshot is basically impossible

I had a Cure I healer in a Shäd dungeon today
>>738336307That was when Rin Karigani begged him to join the group and Happy did not like the group at all so he bounced and Rin cried on stream like a bitch. Happy was in the right for that one.
>>738336014Bit of both.You are getting a PvP limit break for Dragoon in PvE.https://youtu.be/psjf8IGzrLU
>>738336180Very clearly making fun of people who think they are above anime humor but they think lesser media is humorous
>>738336014We don't really know. The claim currently is that Evolved will have unique actions, but we need a comparison of jobs on reborn vs evolved to see how much is shared and how much is new.
VIPbros...
>>738336223>and the only way to ignore positionals is High Jump, renamed "Vengeful Jump,"The icon looks like High Jump but it seems to work more like Spineshatter Dive. It actually displaced your character. High Jump just returned them to the position they were in before pushing it.
>>738336470We did get a comparison for DRG.
FF14 fans keep telling me FF14 both plays like and is designed in the spirit of Final Fantasy. And yet the gameplay looks nothing like Final Fantasy and the world and you progress through it looks nothing like it. And even the characters, characterization, and humour seems to be wholly different. You can like FF14 I suppose. But I just can't even fathom how someone could claim it's anything like Final Fantasy beyond the iconography and a couple of shared themes or whatever.
>>738336508They didn't show the DRG reborn hotbar, THOUGH.
>>738336387Last time I checked /v/ was ZeplaHQ™'s territory.
>>738336387That isn't anything walked back, that's Happy saying he doesn't agree with Kate's actions either but he's not gonna have a melty about itYou forgot the part where Xeno demands a Discord call so MrHappy can 1v1 him faget
>>738336579It's the same as it is now without Battle Litany.
>>738336527It's cope from people who don't play FF because they started in Shadowbringers during covid and want to be considered part of the FF community since they're the sorts that view games as a stepping stone to a community. Same mentality as persona fans who only watch streams or lets plays.
>>738336482>cDPSMan every patch they invent a new DPS gender, what's wrong with just DPS?
>>738336656Not even close, Sinistral/Dextral positional requirements force you to not hug the boss's ass on top of F&C/WT
>>738336612>You forgot the part where Xeno demands a Discord call so MrHappy can 1v1 him fagetI wasn't even aware of this because I don't care about ecelebs and I'm not following this drama.
>>738336656Anon has a point, to be honest.What we saw for Reborn is the 100 buttons. Presumably, they'd get something between 100 and 110 too.
>>738336696Sinistral and Dextral are evolved, not reborn. Reborn mode is just the same as now but they're losing party buffs.
>>738336728I misread
>>738336656Anon it's a WIP mock up. We have no idea what is going to really change because those aren't finalized until media tour which is a month or two after JP fan fest. They didnt even have icon art for new skills

>>738336387This "we are being raided because people don't like a retard chimping out" narrative is peak wet paper ego squealing.
>>738336719But what can they add to reborn except more follow ups? The system has reached its limits.
>>738332295ewww a baby janny! Kill it!
>>738336702I'm not following it but I made sure to save this pic that puts Xenosys as the heckin based and 4chan opinion.
>>738336824Yeah, I agree. Just saying.
>>738336787FF12 is very FF, though. Even in the incomplete state it's a good entry.
>>738336850>I'm not following itCorrect. I'm not following it. I had no idea about this point that you brought up. You are following the drama, not me. Literally every single thing I know about this Xeno Happy thing is because I play this game and check in on these threads periodically, but every single time I have since yesterday, you faggots are melting down about Xeno and Happy.
>>738336824That's the point, they were already saying they debated increasing the level cap to 110, but it's likely that when they finally remove Reborn is when they'll stop the level increases.
>>738336387to be fair, the percentage of non trannies remaining in the game took a nose dive after dawntrail, quite a few of us canceled subs and won't ever go back.
Best part of FFXI was mega starmine
>>738336482Hmm looks like I'm fighting Kefka Ultimate on Reaper or DragoonThere's a real chance Reaper is worth using on that fight if there isn't a lot of downtime
Brown cat women...
>>738336942Kinda silly to posit yourself as a bystanding adult in the room about it when you're saving that kind of material
>>738336527I've been playing FF since FFI on the NES, and XIV is definitely Final Fantasy. Maybe if you've never played Final Fantasy or if you've only played one or two FF games and you just want to shitpost, you might say something like you said in your post. However, if you truly enjoy Final Fantasy, it's obvious that XIV is Final Fantasy.
Right now my worry for DRG is simply about the downtime between getting to do Sinistral and Dextral stuff. 20s CD for every Vengeful Jump (which is not at all bad in a vacuum), 3 Vengeful Jumps (so a minute) for Stardiver/Stardiver Combo/Sky High, which isn't bad at all either. But there's 10s between the Sinistral and Dextral recharges. You of course open (it seems) with 3 charges of Sinistral and Dextral so you can go wild at the beginning, but after you exhaust those? You'll have to do your filler gcd rotation (that is one button) while you wait for Sinistral/Dextral to recharge.
>>738336850Thoughts on Enuo EX? Is Enuo reddit or 4channel?>>738336993You play DRG anyway tho.
>>738336993Who asked raidtranny
>>738336993Kefka Savage already has loads of downtime, ultimate will have way more downtime. Stick to DRG if you know what's good for you. I know I'm sticking to MNK, I have to because I cleared O8S on MNK so it's only fitting.
>>738337067>Kinda silly to posit yourself as a bystanding adult in the room about it when you're saving that kind of materialWhy do you think that? I keep coming into "my" house, and there are a bunch of trannies screeching at each other. So I ask the trannies who are in my house why they are screeching. And they tell me the reason. Or, rather, they screech the reason. I then assemble the facts, and I present them without screeching. It's pretty simple. Stop screeching about Xeno and Happy. No one cares.
>>738336696>>738336728People are making a big deal out of the positionals being split for Dragoon, but it's really not going to be that big of a dealYou're just going to stock them like Reaper gauge and use them during free momentsThen your True North Jumps also aren't stuck being burst window buttons without 2m so you can spread them out for that too
>>738337073>You'll have to do your filler gcd rotation (that is one button) while you wait for Sinistral/Dextral to recharge.That's just one filler combo per Sinistral/Dextral, which is the same as Fang and Claw/Wheeling Thrust now. Except you can bank them if you need to.
>>738337157Autismus maximus
>>738335280Why did thr butterfly keep fucking with that puppy like that?
>>738337086I play a lot of melee tho...>>738337139Yeah, it is an Ultimate after allI cleared on Monk back in the day too, but it's just not the same job anymore and I get frustrated at how they changed it sometimes
>>738337226To test its abilities
>>738337187That's true, but it feels good to be able to follow up Sinistral with Dextral and vice versa.You'll probably lean towards expending them now.
>>738337276A TEST OF YOUR REFLEXES
>>738337086You being a vizex dicksucker is not surprising in the least bitSay the line!
Thinking on miqote breastsWhy don't they have 8
>>738337354Vizex is a cool guy and talks about the game.What did you do in Final Fantasy today?
>>738337372Miqote are more human than catHrothgirls on the other hand...
>>738337270MNK is too ingrained for me, I don't wholly main it anymore but it's the only one I can come back to and not feel lost surprisingly. I still do the old positionals as second nature even if they don't matter anymore.
>>738337354Him and Vizex both cover for eachother's asses, it's funny and pathetic.
>>738337404Avatarfaggots dont have rights tourist
>>738336387The most hilarious part is that the quick sloppy meme making fun of him is several times more liked than his actual original post that sparked it. That's rough.
Remember when Mr. Happy was caught on a hot mic bragging about how he helped clamp down on the BluFever leaks and Yoshida thanked him for it?https://streamable.com/sk23c
>>738337446Outside of leveling on new expansion releases, I haven't played MNK since HW and I also still do the old positionals.>>738337456>>738337482Were you happy to see Zero come back?
I KNEELI SQUEALMY DPS ISN'T REALI COPEI MOPESOMEONE HAND ME A ROPEI DRESS LIKE A TRASH BAGI SMELL LIKE A CUM RAGI AM... A NINJA FAG
>>738333792It's clearly there, just less pronounced because the lighting it coming from above and in front so there won't be much of a cast shadow.
>>738336585She still has my heart pretty funny how there hasnt bee 500 or 1000 ffxiv players sing SMILE to celebrate Dawntrail like they did to celebrate Endwalker
>>738334651Annoying as fuck, I don't want to play threat wars or other tanks playing threat wars with me in alliance raids, you turn that shit on after your opener and 95/100 times you're completely fine for the rest of the fight as second / third threat.Same goes for shit like Eureka and Bozja, I don't want threat if the other guy is running certain essences.
>>738337446I thought about relearning it, but they're flipping every job on its head in 8 months so I'm just gonna wait
>>738337532kek
>>738337489Imagine going mask off for clicks and everybody's so impressed you barely get any while stuff shitting on you gets millions
>>738337489I'm sure this means something totally epic to Twitter trannies, but it doesn't mean anything to me. And since it was also posted here, I did actually watch Xeno's video that everyone was shitposting about, saying that Xeno is whining that WAR is an off tank... except that's not what the video said. Xeno said that he's worried the meta will be OT/OT because he believes OT will be doing more damage and have more party mitigation and that the OT will still be able to survive tank busters, so there will be no point in bringing a MT. The tourists in this thread hate Xeno so much that they don't even care about reality, they just want to shit on Xeno. Why not just do that on Twitter if everyone is shitting on him on Twitter? Why bring that into this thread?
>>738337069>However, if you truly enjoy Final Fantasy, it's obvious that XIV is Final Fantasy.How so? The combat and broader gameplay of FF14, an MMORPG, is extremely different from other FF games. At least ignoring FF11 but even it is different from FF14. But neither of them play like other FF games. Not even FF12. And while plenty of them have silly or lighthearted humour, none of them have cutscenes like the OP other than FF14. The pacing and how the game progresses, is nothing like that of a Final Fantasy game. It plays like an MMORPG. How is it anything like Final Fantasy beyond the iconography and a couple of themes?
>>738337514The funny part is if this was Xenos or anyone else they would've drawn way too much attention defending themselves for it. Happy saw it circulating and just said nothing so the minor controversy died on its own.
>>738337701His own original post has very nearly 5 times the viewcount of the meme shitting on him.And the meme shitting on him has 4.6 times the likes.Embarrassing.
>>738336482>A difference range of 1.4k DPS between melee DPS or a difference range of 800 DPS between Phy range in an era where everyone is on average doing 30K+ somehow necessitates the need to catagorize such differences in TIERS when not a single margin listed will ever be the sole difference between a death to enrage or clear that could not have been prevented with simply better play somewhere in the pull in not a single individual piece of group content in the entire gameThis is the pattern of behavior that kills the fun in video games.
>>738337514What is blufever? So obviously Happy is not acting as himself but rather is speaking as a puppet of Square Enix, but what of the shills who turned 4chan into their drama shithole? Are these paid Square Enix shills or are these just angry trannies?
>>738337786That's the big difference, Happy is smart enough to know he's done something embarrassing and say NOTHING about itXeno's definitely the "4chan opinion" there since he instantly started screaming and shitting his pants and yelling he dindu nuffin
>>738337848>What is blufever?AHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>738337718They want a personal armyIf this place wasn't completely transformed by Internet immigration, they would be told to fuck off like this instead of being taken seriously at all

>>738335263oh okay nicewhat about blood magic tower?
>>738337971>what about blood magic tower?Forked Tower part 2? Should release alongside it.
>>738337848Blufever is an actual leaker that was around in the Stormblood days and confirmed the existence of Blue Mage, viera, hrothgar, and some of Shadowbringers' plot, usually through meme collages, and was back early enough to identify the final boss of the Omegascape raid series as "Adam & Eve"He or his contacts (since Blufever did still get some things wrong, meaning whoever he was talking to had only partial information/design access) were sussed out eventually and removed, and we haven't had reliable leaks since, typically only stuff leaking a few days ahead of time on Media Tour job rotations
>>738337848>What is blufever?Oh, they're going to rake you through the coals for this
>>738337848nahhhh lilbro really said who blufever say sike ongggg
>>738337907He keeps vanishing for periods. He's probably getting banned in the background but his posts aren't removed.
>>738338029>usually through meme collagesThat's pretty funny and based. On the one hand, I like that there are very little leaks, if any. On the other hand, I think it's lame and gay to be a tattle tale to SE about it.

>>738338103Is there anything that has been removed from the game that you miss?
>>738338103The much more rational explanation is that he is spamming nonstop on cooldown, has a 4chan pass, might be janny adjacent, and is actively participating in the conversation, most likely on "both sides", as it were.
>>738338173cute and funny DPS
>>738338087Shut up Mick, don't you have an Irish jig to be practicing? Give me a 4 leaf clover for your thoughts?
>>738338247What's the rational explanation for why Golbez destroyed the Alzadaal voidgate?
>>738338169Happy's been very careful ever since that hot mic to keep his nose clean, I imagine it was a wake-up call since he seems to be an OK dude in his personal life anymoreI'm also a fan of the game having few to no leaks, even datamines usually end up only being for Ultimate raid bosses (who cares), early looks at EX trial or Savage weapons and gear (who cares), and new meme dances since stuff typically doesn't get added to the game whatsoever until it's about to go live. There's still exceptions, like Heavensturn samurai armor showing up in the files long before its corresponding holiday event went live, but rule of thumb

>>738338247Janny adjacent and luck-of-the-draw on whether his protege is online for protection, I think. Whenever he's a-buckin' and a-hollerin' I notice reports go ignored unless it's for NSFW stuff. Posting Ryne porn got him banned for a straight year once and it took over a hundred posts in the thread out with him. he probably does enjoy some kind of mod protection, but it's not enough to keep him safe when his protege is offline, and getting a year's ban for just porn means he's flailing almost constantly

>>738337915>What is your point?That FF14 does not resemble a Final Fantasy game. In neither design or broader gameplay. >There is always a possibility we may end up with a first-person shooter FF.And such a game would not be like Final Fantasy because Final Fantasy is not and has not been like first-person shooters. The idea that you can just put the brand name on anything and that'd be authentically Final Fantasy is just ridiculous. And as much as figures like Kitase could insist his point, it would just result in the furthering of the death of the brand's identity, as opposed to strengthening it. There are reasons why games like Fantasian or Expedition 33 are above and beyond more Final Fantasy than FF14. FF14 might have the brand name Final Fantasy, and Bravely Default does not. And yet Bravely Default is 200% more FF than FF14. The only thing about Bravely Default that doesn't resemble Final Fantasy is its title. The one and only thing. Meanwhile FF14 hardly resembles Final Fantasy at all beyond beyond iconography or a few themes.

>>738338753>The idea that you can just put the brand name on anything and that'd be authentically Final Fantasy is just ridiculous.This is, genuinely, the Square suits' argument to Sakaguchi for why FFXI couldn't be a numbered titleWhich is to say, this train of thought was dead over twenty years ago

>>738338892
>>738338847In fairness Hydaelyn's resurrection required on super-charging a crystal that can "summon things" to go beyond its intended scope and it's slippery on whether the Scions were dead, while unsundered can sort of ignore their own death for a while like Elidibus did in 5.3
>>738338839>Which is to say, this train of thought was dead over twenty years agoAnd it was a mistake. They had the right idea before. The mana games are cool. Action RPGs, conceptually, are rad. But it was a good idea to distinguish them as an FF spin-off as opposed to calling them Final Fantasy. Because the mana games do not resemble Final Fantasy. Not in any distinct ways at least. The idea that Final Fantasy could just be anything under the sun defeats the purpose of anything being Final Fantasy at all.
>>738338753Just say Final Fantasy is turned based combat, because thats obviously what you mean in order to say>games like Fantasian or Expedition 33 are above and beyond more Final Fantasy than FF14

>>738339086Fatansian and E33 even beyond being turnbased, are still aligned with FF. The character/party customization. World exploration.

>>738338173cDPS stands for "Combined DPS" and is measuring how much damage you've done with single target padding removed and adding how much your damage you've given to others with your buffs. The formula for it is:cDPS = DPS - (damage gained from a set of specific single target buffs) + damage others gained because of your buffs.As aDPS, cDPS does not include Devilment / Standard Finish, and Astrologian cards. But it will add any damage your buffs contributed to the raid as your own, much like rDPS.Keep in mind that if you're one of the jobs that have zero AOE buffs that benefit others, this is literally the same as aDPS. This is true for any tank job, Samurai, White Mage, Sage, Black Mage and Machinist.For example, if you are a Ninja receiving buffs from an Astrologian and Dragoon. cDPS would not include those, but would still include the damage gained from Divination and Battle Litany as well as the damage from your Mug ability.cDPS allows you compare how well you and your raid played into burst windows and AOE buffs. It's a good way to look at job balance between eachother, and seeing which jobs have strong buffs while also providing good damage during other job's AOE buff windows.

FF has always, ALWAYS made it a point to reinvent the wheel. Each numbered game was an attempt to push the bar forward (regardless of whether they succeeded or not) and while combat remained menu based up until 12, those games all have wildly different skill development systems and add new gameplay outside of combat. Only the first 3 games were true turn-based but no one bitched about FFIV's turn to ATB or FFVII's switch to 3D or FFX's switch to VA (at least no one worth listening to). FFXI being an MMO was what was considered the next step forward for the JRPG genre similar to these other changes in the franchise (with Phantasy Star succeeding in leading the way while Grandia failed but Dragon Quest receiving a modicum of success). FFXIV is no different. Final Fantasy is the antithesis of Dragon Quest which is a series that prides itself on tradition and is slow to change. FF has always been about rapid change and a change in genre is not idiosyncratic.

But no. The first ten Final Fantasy games, even with all their differences and novel gimmicks or turns, are all infinitely more alike than some kind of MMORPG, Action Game, Shooter, Farmsim, or whatever else. Not only did Final Fantasy stay the same genre, but even within said genre they they stayed broadly similar in terms of their design. And then you act as if the differences between FF1, FF5, and FF10 or whatever are comparable to a fucking genre shift or the complete abandonment of common conventions.

Squaresoft never did anything interesting with the system outside of giving tutorial bosses counterstances you just wait out, which could have been done in a purely turn-based system anyways.
>>738341760To save billions...it's the same thing FourCHANault was doing with the space ship where they could only carry so many people to the moon because they weren't the main protagonist who was gonna solve all issues without sacrificing anything

Please tell me we at least kill him

>>738341909Anon, I...
Anyone use wrath combo? I set it to do simple auto rotations. I want to bot healer in parties and avoid the tank dying cause my setup is wrong.
>>738341909he goes to jail for trying to use another IP without permission.
>>738341925Nah, they're purely for study.Original Anon also forgot that Oizys, the fucked gravity planet has a shitload of weird fish that swim at random angles.
>>738341909I must be going senile, I don't even remember what happened to him. He must be the least interesting villain the game has ever had
>>738338632
>>738341909We don't kill people in Tural. They go into timeout until they're ready to say sorry.
>>738341920Without a doubt
>>738341209All femras smell goodFACT
>>738342247This kid is calling you a cow
>>738341880>>738342170big "strongest party member" energyif this game was a jrpg everyone would be using Sadu forever.but for some reason XIV reeks of a DIY customizable party game like FFVI and FFVII so whatever.
>>738341321Nah. Bottom 5 is solidly 1, 13, 15, 16, and 2 in that order.
>>738341669
>>738342310>one of us>cowthis is only true if they fuck the rroneekthey fuck the rroneek don't they. I mean that's unsurprising since au'ra smell like horse semen
Is there a way to filter hunts based on expansions with sonar?
I hate the fish face aura ascian What a boring character
>>738342508>auraOh shit new race?
>>7383425088.0 will make you ashamed of your words and deeds
They took that nigga to prison...
>>738341209...they're nice
>>738342319Square knows she's extremely popular but for some reason barely put her in the game, at least we got her to visit our private island.I wish square would let us have some MSQ adventures with people other than the scions for once to give popular characters like Sadu a spot in the limelight.
>>738341681Cause she's an Ascian and she's allied with Calyx.That really is it. She isn't actively trying to be a villain either.
I want Calyx to get transferred to increasingly humiliating vessels every time he has to shard hop.
>>738331580It's because you're an insufferable little chud and not a heckin' based chungus liberal millennial like meTake that in your pipe and smoke it *badum pish*
caught up on MSQHonestly what halmarut is saying about the shards makes some kind of sense, kind of puts what the unsundered were doing into a new light. Zodiark and Hydalaen were really load-bearing bosses, weren't they.I do wonder what the overall solution will be, even though that's probably years and years down the line at this point. Maybe making a new Hydalaen?
>>738331580>japanese humor
>>738341909We told him he was bad and forgave him. He only resurrected three evil gods from another universe, whats the issue
>>738341905I think the point is that though their actions might help save a few million it'd be at the cost of basically everyone else, that's like... 14 planet's worth of people. Even if most of the shards have probably a fairly reduced population, the ones we've seen so far do have a fair few still left and making a life for themselves.
>>738340118actually dead
>>738342508> I hate the current thingGet a new personality.
>>738342793This. She literally figuratively objectively spiritually does not about the azemslop shit going on in your head that's gonna save everybody for free. She is operating on logic that the rejoining unfortunately must continue or else everyone everywhere dies. It's either shards die or you die, there is no magic third option available to her because she isn't the main protagonist, it makes perfect sense.And even when you start doing your azemslop safe rejoining she's still not going to be convinced because she's gonna see you doing your usual hero bullshit while holding cards close to your chest so she'll probably try to stop you without realizing you are doing what she wants without others dying and then have a tragic death seeing the light and thanking you for finding the magic 3rd option. It's so painfully obvious dude I hate modern japanese writers so fucking much.
>>738343104just like bakool jaja
>>738334758Best waifu ever. That neck is sexy.
>>738342960>Maybe making a new Hydalaen?The majority of the Ascians had to be sacrificed to summon Zodiak and Hydalaen into existence, and their ability to conquer things like that far surpassed the mortals of today, I doubt you could repeat that act even if you sacrificed everyone in all shards.
>>738343137If they're going to die on their own, because the shards will collapse into the Source whether someone does anything or not, it's better to salvage what they can. They weren't even going to abandon the shards entirely either. Calyx was trying to maintain the people of the Ninth in the only way he could think of, but we shut that down.
>>738342960each shard will get their own mini-hydaelyn with the power of the worlds trees. don't get too attached to whatever cute femra they introduce in 8.0, because that bitch is gonna sacrifice herself to become the heart.
>>738343137The winterers are the red buttonThe scions are the blue button
WHAT I DID IN XIV TODAY ISWHAT I DID IN XIV TODAY IS
>>738343362Oh yeah. I'd forgot about that part.Hm. The bit I'm interested in then is how the Ethos gate says the bit about bringing the shards together... I wonder if that's like, metaphorical, or a literal thing.The fact that the game is an MMO means it won't happen but otherwise I could see it being "we find a way to shove all the different shard pieces into one new mega planet".
>>738343362simplewe steal g'raha's hydaelyn
>>738341209>more troon shitgreat
>>738343362>I doubt you could repeat that act even if you sacrificed everyone in all shards.big sleepy super dragon and hydaelyn's second in command though
>>738343572My thought right now is that they'll link up all the opposites.>First (light) to Thirteenth (dark)>Ninth (lightning) to Fourth (ice)>Eleventh (earth) to Eighth (wind)And they'll like tug on each other or something to prevent the other from rejoining. But then I'd also assume that would make them balance their elemental aspect out and end up back at the same problem anyway.
>>738341209Isn't she basically the gardener of the Convocation? No wonder why she pissed herself in our first encounter.
>>738343646meds
>>738343572It's likely reconnecting all the shards without a rejoining, like hooking them up to a new power supply within the same plane of existence so everyone can freely visit each other. In other words, what wizards of the coast did to magic the gathering with omenpaths
>>738343571Made portraits
>>738343823Rape, I'm afraid.
>>738337718>Xeno said that he's worried the meta will be OT/OT because he believes OT will be doing more damage and have more party mitigation and that the OT will still be able to survive tank busters, so there will be no point in bringing a MT.Xeno's also a moron for saying that, both because Paladin's counter does more than enough damage to justify its status as a MT (nearly equivalent damage to Blade of Honor on a Satisfaction parry) and because he's the guy known for wanting Warrior on top no matter what. It's really easy to construe his concerns as being mad that Warrior isn't "the main character," I think he can smell that Warrior's immortality is at an end and he's feigning concern about balance. His legacy as a FFXIV streamer is being one of the champions for Strength accessories on tanks in HW to push damage-- as if he gives a fuck about whether MT can earn its spot or not, he's parse brained and probably mad that Paladin is going to be pushing more damage than Warrior.

>>738339331lovely mini milkers
>>738343989Not my problem
>>738343713>the gardenerit's not like the conovocation were chads either. the convocation was 12 incel nerds (and lahabrea) plus azem the jock. lahabrea doesn't count because he actually had sex and was an asshole to in pandemonium.
>>738344046>>Chort: Chortbased
>>738342960We'll probably be creating paths between the reflections and Source - bridges, as it were, so they can be connected.And this will also keep them apart.
>>738343989I sure hope so. I wonder if the 4th has dragons, if there's a world tree we'll need a Nidhogg
I love Hildibrand
>>738344182Only the Source has dragons, but other shards can have dragon-like creaturesBafflingly, other shards do have Dragoons as well, there's a couple floating around in the Heroes' Gauntlet dungeon
we won't summon a full Hydaelyn/Zodiark level "will of the star" but Halmarut will die and enter the Fourth's lifestream and from there influence its flow to safely unite the shard with the Source's and avert The Solstice's purging of humanity
>>738344168The Ascians defeated by the one thing they couldn't predict: civil engineering.>you had to summon a gigantic deity killing a bunch of your population to keep your star from exploding? that's weak shit, we just built TRUSSES that's right the power of TRIANGLES

MIDDY MIDDY TURN ON THE ECHO THEY HIT THE SOURCETHEY HIT THE FUCKING SOURCE MIDDY
>>738344297I'm guessing the 4ths Nidhogg would be a giant serpent of sorts, or perhaps some kind of concept unique to the 4th
>>738344780>>738344854>new physical ranged class: DRAGOON>it's just a real life dragoon aka a guy with a small blunderbuss
>>738344917Yes I know what a real world dragoon is, mounted cavalry with a specific gun isn't the same thing as parallel universes in FFXIV having dragon themed knights with no dragons existing>>738344981Probably the latter; I think it's pretty blatant with the squirrel plush Calyx is inhabiting that he's, functionally, Ratatoskr in Norse myth
>>738344950TURN ON YOUR LINKSHELLIT DOESN'T MATTER WHICH ONEFUCK
>>738344576Hmmm no.
>>738341925the third CE planet has ruins of records of intelligent life who used advanced Geomancy-based technology, dubbed "Voyagers", who left the planet using an incredibly high velocity gravity slingshot, and the next segment of Exploration is supposed to be following their flight path. They might have evaded song of despair.
So you excited for the Jormungandr trial?

>trial is bootleg dalamadur>several platforms>you have to jump to another before he eats the platform and you with it
>the "Nidhogg" is Jenova>the world is frozen not just to prime a rejoining but to keep her sealed away
>>738345270as a fight, it's finebut story wise it's so lame
8.0 will introduce npc EBs and Halmarut is one of themHer questline will be extra dorky
Prishe's so pretty
>>738345446I would love it if we could find some survivors having managed to escape the end by some sort of stasis
I am going to guess given the mythology of the next xpac that the way to save the star will be to create Yggdrasil to somehow stabilize and hold the reflections in place. And Halmarut who is the nature ascian will probably sacrifice herself to do it somehow as her service to the star.
>>738345697Thanks.
wasn't there this cool art of valigarmanda wrapped around the tuliyollal palace or some kinda templeremember what we could have had

>>738345803
>>738336387>of all the posts about the drama, this is the one that got moderatedTelling.
>>738345915That's the Everkeep dough
>>738346059Official janny stance: Xenosys is a retard
>>738346021>Yes, the Levequest system used to be the only way to level across all jobsThat isn't true. You could do classic MMO exp parties.
>>738340945Because it's literally just Levesquests in space, you're doing the same shit you did on Etheirys but on random-ass moons that have no other content but "sit in place and craft/gather shit halfway across the map then come back, only interrupted by an occasional Public Levequest)
>>738345584Doubtful, Ultima seems to what they'll use for XIV's "Jenova", unless they literally add a Jenova to XIV in one of the other shards, meracydia or a FFVII colab once the third game is out
>>738345697I like Lilisette but it's crazy how simple of a design Prishe is and how well it works.
I find it odd to assume that the Winterer/Solstice thing will be solved by the end of the next expac. I mean there's every chance they do that but I figure they probably want some overarching plan for the next few expansions.
I just finished up with the quest where you talk to Wuk at the palace after the Valigarmanda fight and unfortunately i have been charmed by the character.I genuinely thought i would hate her but she touches my shounentard heart.
>>738345436She probably rehearsed her presentation many times in front of Calyx, but she was still nervous to give her grand speech to the Scions and Azem.
>>738346304She likes peas, you know She's aight
what a fag
>>738346307In her head, she was like>Yea! Nailed it, Halmarut! I know you could do it!Fucking goober. I wanna bully her.
>>738346196That's the only inaccuracy, and only slightly wrong?
>>738346021Rude
>>738340557they both need love, anon
>>738346304I thought the same thing at that point in the story, but you unfortunately have about another 40 hours where she repeats the same things about papa's peace and happiness over and over again
>>738346307it's cute how she refers to the warrior of light as WoL-sama in that cutscene (Japanese VO)
>>738346719man gaia is so ugly

And then having to "Speak with Wuk Lamat" another 156 times (You get that Quest approximately 297 times btw). Then the final fight with Sphene and the whole, "fuck reality, I'm soloing this boss, you can fuck off WoL" shit.
>>738346021You didn't even have a chocobo until YoshiP took over.A complete disaster of a game.

>>738346442it's gonna be a monk with shields :)
>>738346986It's gonna be a dueling shield
>>738346196Yeah stamina died by 1.15 if I recall correctly, and it wasn't long after that where leveling in a party in the overworld like XI was the way to go. I remember so many hours beating coblyns in copperbell or wolves in natalan. 1.0 was so funny because it was genuinely more volatile than like 4.0 - 8.0 in gameplay adjustments. 1.23 wasn't necessarily good because of all the tech issues, but I took for granted forcing people to group up in town and physically go to a dungeon instead of queue up a duty.
>>738346750it's the lipstick. tone it down and make it a more natural color and you'd be all over her
>>738346986I would unironically play a double-shield tank. Almost no games offer this. But if you know any, tell me

There were field enemies all over the place. There were even level 90 enemies placed to gate you off from areas they didn't want you to go yet because there was no content there.
