Nobody loser who becomes a champion through being a mary sue. What's not to love for the modern "still a child" loser who've accomplished nothing? Just wait for your ~narrative~ to fix all your issues!
I'm guessing food and pots are going to be the most lucrative at the start, or is it better to focus on making the gear?I've been grinding out mats for the savage tier dropping, this is what my week has looked like:
~40M in melds later, mind you. That's the most painful system in the entire game, I don't look forward to doing it again for savage tomorrow. I lost 97 17% chances earlier, I don't even want to do the math to know how improbable that is.
I'm predicting 1600 scrip masterbooks, as we just had 1600 scrip folklore tomes, so for anyone else crafting make sure your capped on purp tonight. Capped Scrips + Custom Delivery + 20ish Collectables should be all 8 books, and you can prep ahead of time. I'm getting on the fishing collectable grind for the blue dust this evening and I should be ready for the markets tomorrow. Billions of gil are about to fly tomorrow, make sure you get yourselves a part of it.
Honestly, some ARR trash pulls like Hullbreaker Isle and Amdapor keep are more interesting than what we have now since you can just pull as much as you want up to the boss, sometimes you can even pull mobs into the boss arena. The bosses suck, but the concept of allowing players to pull as much as they want is not too bad. Shame that most tanks don't pull all the way to the boss in most of them, and even if they did the healer would be too busy spamming their weakest heals to keep them alive. If that same design existed today, the community would probably normalize the max pulls, and the only reason they don't for the old dungeons is because they're a joke and take under 10 minutes anyway.
I don't love her, but I found her alright. I preferred the simpler direction the story was going through in the first half in general - the reason people hate her is the reason I found her "comfy". Her arc was predictable, but it just made sense - opposite of someone like, say, G'raha who gets very jarring tone shifts in Shadowbringers and after, or Erenville. Even Thancred's personality shift confuses me somewhat.
I kinda hate most SHB dungeons and the first EW dungeon. Most bosses there have a solid 20-30% more HP than they should have and most of them don't really do much at all. Once I got to 90 with my mains I started leveling a bunch of classes from their baseline and leveling around 65 to 80 is such a chore. I'd take those bosses doing 20% more damage in general if their hps were 20% less. Earlier dungeons might suck, but they don't feel like they go on forever.
The number 1 money maker is Materia. Food and Pots are steady, but for early prog most people use last tier's stuff so it's not the money maker you'd imagine. Gear is always good to sell, but you need to do it quickly before the underselling bots update.
I don't know if they broke something at some point but I don't think any of the purple barriers even work in ARR dungeons.
Titania and Innocence should definitely be doable. Maybe Diamond. None of them do too much single-target damage. You'll probably need to play around with burst windows to force phase transitions.
Yeah, what the fuck is up with that? I queue for "high level dungeons" and get Dzemael Darkhold or some other old trash. I expect high level to be something around 70-90 when I'm slightly above 90 myself.
Anything level 50 or above is considered a “high level dungeon”. Also I imagine all the free trial people causes a dramatic shift towards any pre-shadowbringers dungeons.
The idea of an official strike is a nothingburger, but the idea - competent players are going to play healers a lot less - is verymuch real. There's a lot of paste-eaters, and so soon as I have them maxed for the sake of maxing them, why would I ever touch them again? They aren't fun, and playing one doesn't make a dungeon go faster in the way that playing a tank does.
A win for healers would be the ability to do something interesting here and there. The damage kit is literally pressing one button over and over and over again, sometimes refreshing a DoT. It's fucking awful. They don't need complicated DPS rotations, but for fuck's sake they need something. All four of them play almost identically, which means that at higher levels of play - you pick the one that's just obviously better, because there's zero advantage to one over the other.
It's either empty contrarianism, or it's people who get their self-worth from the idea that they enjoy a game with a "good story," who can't possibly cope with the fact that Dawntrail was written for seven-year-olds.
That's just the old 5/6/7/8 queue with a new name, since presumably they didn't want it to keep getting longer and longer and longer.
Don't know how it is in Burgerland region, but in the the Eurofag region nobody partyfinds savage and extreme on Chaos so everyone travels to Light. Maybe it's same for Japland so they unlock them at the same time.
That’s how it is in NA too, but with the travel restrictions people have actually been using PF in their own servers. Everyone just flocks to the one raiding data center because it’s the one raiding data center.
