8ch XIV Discord: discord.gg/xrZjJKf

When will they delete classes? If the cross-class changes fuck them in stormblood, there's pretty much no reason to keep them.

Because adding that line in the OP rather than not bringing it up at all sure helps. Also you fucked up the formatting again with no big red text, but whatever.

When do yall think they'll fix the damn Duty Finder? I'm kinda feeling like not playing again until Stormblood comes.

It's broken?

Can you please stop messing up the formatting and remove that stupid bait at the end of the OP? It's really autistic and practically begging people to shit-stir.

Also reminder that this is where you go to find the 8ch FCs if you want to join one


Yeah, they fucked something up when they tried refining the queuing system so now it gets stuck. Their bandaid fix was to just have it kick people when the queue gets stuck so that you can atleast requeue instead of never ever getting in without knowing why. You'll probably have noticed people withdraw super frequently all of a sudden, and that's why.

I was wondering about the withdrawals, jesus christ. Queue time doesn't seem to be suffering, though? I haven't had trouble getting into any current content as a DPS.

Before the bandaid you'd have tanks queue for a dungeon and not have it pop for 6+ hours. They fucked it really hard for anyone not a DPS so they had to hotfix it.

I think I see what you're saying, but you're not being specific about it. It is odd that they even have Classes when, except for Arcanist, they all only go into one job and it's objectively better anyway. Plus the cross class skills are horribly uninteresting, it's just buffs and attacks you wouldn't want to use anyway. Hopefully they do something, but I'm not sure removing classes over adding something is the way to go. We don't want to go the WoW route and strip the gameplay. It would be better if the secondary classes specifically came into play in some way, or it was more like the Tactics games. Though for it to not be shit that would require a complete overhaul of the skills so that they were actually unique and had utility.

I don't think removal is the correct choice, but as it is currently classes can't access raid finder (even pre-formed) or relics. If they remove the cross-class utility (provoke, raise, virus, e4e, goad, etc), the classes will become pointless gameplay-wise.

...

the Class/Job split is a relic from 1.0 when the game was actually designed around mixing and matching entire movesets
As it stands the entire system needs a rework, otherwise they should just merge them i.e. Gladiator "evolves" into Paladin for the sake of not breaking the game's established story/lore. I would much rather them do the former, but this is SE so at best it'll probably be the latter.

In one fell swoop all the thread shitflinging can be solved by just using the discord.

I guess "Sloppy Edition" went right over some people's heads. I'll try to keep the jokes at Dane Cook levels from now on.

I got the joke, it just wasn't funny. If you're going to make the thread, at least format it correctly and use an up-to-date OP.

No, you didn't. And the OP is up-to-date.

smug ==CATGIRLS ARE CUTE==

Get over it, your joke was shit and nobody laughed.
Says the person who didn't even bother reading it, then. There was a new OP with a ton of more relevant info on it that keeps not being posted ever since someone started sniping these threads.

These lovely ladies are your maids tonight.

Say something nice to them, Holla Forums.

I-I like the smell of your farts

oi where is the green one with the pigtails? she was the cutest.

Th-Thank you.


She's already booked for Mr. Lightbringer.

The only thing that was removed from the OP was the FC information. Everything else is still intact and up to date.

why does user get four lolis?

but I am The lightbringer.

Please provide two forms of identification.

k

Thank you, Mr. Lightbringer. She is very happy to hear from you. She'll be arriving soon.

Once again, thank you for your patronage :3

What the fuck

i-i laughed…

One last thing, don't forget about our new bunny ear option.

the lalacaust never happened

But it should have and it will

No more of these shenanigans or I'll have to end all lala maids once and for all

Go back to /vg/, cuck.

Why are potato jews the worst? Like they shill themselves more than cats in threads.

It's time to stop posting

this is now officially a femroe thread :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P xD xD xD xD xD xD xD xD :D :D :D :D :D :D :D OwO

How dare you. 6 trillion innocents had died.

Well maybe they shouldn't have gone to Ireland during a potato famine

REMOVE POTATO, GRIDANIA STRONK

It is quite sad how many times that different peoples tend to bite the hand that feeds them :^(

You breed like fucking vegetables if you lost six trillion assholes in one go. You should be wiped out to make way for more Catgirls, humans and that Rue race because have you seen their women? My god, so tall, it's sexy. It beats little sprites that act like faggots who love money up their bumholes.

Silly girl. Go back to the pillow house. I doubt your master approves of your activity.


It's not our fault that you lack the aptitude to turn a decent profit, my dear boy.

Is it time for ROEPOSTING yet?

Actually my dear useless shortstack I turn profit quite often. Decent profit is for shrews, heavy profit is the real end-game. When you get 200% back from your 20% you know you've done the deed. Your women aren't even good to look at shortie. I've met mares with more heat than your whole race.

GIT OUT

Dont say that friend :(

Only the Lalafell knew that by an able and persistent use of propaganda heaven itself can be presented to the people as if it were hell and, vice versa, the most miserable kind of life can be presented as if it were paradise. The Lalafell knew this and acted accordingly. But the Roegadyn, or rather his Government, did not have the slightest suspicion of it.

I play a Lalafell and I think it's a fun race, but you're just being a complete fucking unbearable faggot about it who, apparently, posts the same shit on cuckchan /vg/ too. No one wants your bullshit here.

Well said, friend!

Show me your women. I'm curious to see what you consider your best.

hello i have a c@

Needs more Roe dicks in them tbh.
Also this thread needs more c@bois and c@bois need more love

Pish posh, no one is interested in your depraved hobbies, user.

I'm level 54 and I have 2000 poetics, what should I spend it on? I already got base ironworks armor.

buy 15 of the relic items phyrite or whatever its called for when you are 60, a bunch of the relic steps are item turn ins and some not tied to a quest, get them now to just skip steps later for BiS
You dont want to be a common pleb with a primal or tomestone weapon for SB do you?

Poetics are pretty much irrelevant at your level. Gearing alts, maybe.

make the title red you dumb fucking nigger

I think we all can agree who are worst race.

Start buying all the unidentified items for the anima grind you'll have to do later on, also get yourself 15 pneumites and a bunch of inks and the other item listed right next to it that costs the same.
Future proof or you'll regret it

These threads are feeling increasing more like /vg/.

The Imageboard cycle

Any mmo goes long enough and you get these modern tribal roaming goys that are the source of the usual "im a cute girl uguuu" tranny avatarfag bullshit.

I'm talking from experience here, back before it and 4chan went to shit i made the first WoW general on /vg/ the day it opened.

I regret it terribly. I really really do.

You deserve rape.

how was i supposed to know what dark summoning ritual i was enacting!?

I DIDN'T KNOW!

You tried talking about WoW. It was never good. You have always been a faggot.

holy shit what the FUCK was yoshi thinking with the anima grind shit?
80 FUCKING UMBRITES

Perhaps you'd be interested in a discount?

Haha, I knew I'd find you there, Mr. Anti-Semite.

Reminder that pic related is the only thing lalas are good for.

...

This is what the dismiss vote button is for used right before the last boss gate

You can't dismiss while loot rolls are pending. If he was sanicing and they didn't have the foresight to let him lock himself inside a boss room a few times to wait out the timer, it's completely possible that they weren't able to kick him.

yeah, the only chance we would have had with that was he first boss when he insta-pulled but all of us ran in.
i usually dont think in terms of vote dismiss than i do "ok for the love of god lets get through this dungeon so i can get the hell away from the crazy"

Could have just sat outside the last boss and let him either suicide inside or run the loot timer out, but I see your point

which quest is that?

2015 halloween

Good god did anyone ever beat this synced? I can't even remember all the fucking mechanics on this shit, and that's while skipping half the shit with overgeared dps

thats such a shitty mechanic, i wish square enix didnt insist on coddling everyone, some kind of rating system that would deny loot based on player performance and allow us to see players who have minimal uptime

only for the pub 24 mans though, dungeons are shitter content for shitters and its easy for a group of 4 players to figure out someone isnt doing shit anyway, 8 mans should stay the way they are

so hows everyone doing on their garo items/pvp mounts? dont bother with the field commander set anymore square made it nearly impossible to get now

i beat it 1st day, nearly got a server first too

thorden ex is the best primal fight in ffxiv and the only reason i didnt quit the game back then

Since you insist on spamming the shit out of your boring ugly character at least do something different instead of the same fucking boring stare even you must surely get bored of it

WHATS THAT? MORE CATPOSTING?

GAS

curse my memory, i wasn't fast enough

As an esteemed member of Hydaelyn's chosen, I agree. Lalafell culinarians are very gifted when it comes to cooking fowl

...

M-more

...

[text]

absolutely disgusting

yeah I did that shit synced, even while it was new and it felt great getting him. I even got my sword and shield from it.

I cant remember most of it though so I am kinda afraid to join a farm group.

I want to cum inside you.

lol doody finder

l-lewd

please kill yourself

not so lewd

Dangit, Khloe

deserved it

What crossclass skills do I need for a DRK?

it only takes 20 minutes

provoke, convalescence, mercy stroke, awareness, and then either foresight or bloodbath

Provoke is absolutely mandatory.
Blood bath and convalescense is neat.

So GLA to 34 and MRD to 26

I think someone is a little grumpy-wumpy…

Give me ideas for the most tryhard edgy glam for DRK imaginable. I got the ultima horns and a kinna sword to glam up but can't decide on the rest

ultima horns arent for edgelords, they are for semen demons

also being an au ra male would be half the outfit

what if I'm a female au ra edgy semen demon

try the lore tank chest with some legs or boots that are thigh highs, maybe normal alex boots or something. mix and match gloves/jewelry to your taste, since the lore tank chest is one of the tank pieces where you can clearly see the necklace you're wearing and your horn glamour will mean you can see earrings too

post pics

the ESO set for DRK works pretty well

Get the Odin helmet.

just a coincidence goyim, fill your squad with lalas for the bonus

FOR ANY DRK MAINS OUT THERE
What do your hotbars look like? I want to figure out the optimal placement for skills.

My squad is all-lalafell

Get rid of critlo. Why does an already enhanced shield need to get doubled? SCH with 1000+ crit can wack out a critlo every 3-4 casts they don't even need a guaranteed proc.
Fights that aren't designed around deployment become trivial while SCH becomes mandatory if fights are.

dis me :3

Hm . . .

I'm gonna fight that fucking bear.

Ah fuck me, doing extreme primals via dungeon finder is almost impossible. Everyone goes in blind and you just wipe for 15 minutes or you have to spend 40 minutes explaining and wiping constantly. I just want the weapons they drooooop

HRRRRRNG

...

At least you tried.

You'll get him next time, user.

Made me laugh.

just slut glam then

if you want to be maximum succubus then elezen is the way to go

forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/62122-Lore-of-Lalafell

Finally, something worth reading on the official forums.

Farming Zurvan with randoms is suffering.

isn't that one of the shithole servers along with balmeme, ultros, cactuar and gilgamesh?

It's practically the EU Balmeme.

I play on Shiva and every time there's a guy from Phoenix, my butt clenches and I get nauseous in anticipation for the rage I'm going to try and contain.

If there's a piece of shit on DF dungeons/trials, it's from Phoenix 85% of the time.

gaze upon my shit tsunami that is a hotbar and weep

also I'm trying to decide which healer to level between WHM and AST, but it's fucking hard because both jobs have things I like; leaning WHM because I like burst DPS

WHM won't fuck you over with meme cards and the burst healing is amazing too, but the one downside is that you can and will burn all your mp hard if your party fucks up, which happens all the time

Yeah, the crazy MP regen on AST was one of the major upsides I was considering it for. The three biggest things turning me off from AST are the RNG draws, lack of ANY FUCKING OFFENSE BEFORE LEVEL 52 YOSHI WHAT THE FUCK, and the lack of burst DPS which WHM has

More like your cooking is foul. Still if you fancy the kitchen so much why don't you get in a fucking oven.

Here's mine. Priorities of hotbars are 1 > 2 > 5 (hidden) > 8 (top left) > 10 Half the icons on 8 are just cooldown trackers for skills I bound to hotbar 5, with hidden skills like Circle of Scorn for which I just use Spirit Within's timer to track.

I really wanted my screen space so I just set up a fuckton of keystroke shortcuts, I actively use Ctrl, Shift, Alt Gr, and Ctrl+Shift.

Holy shit that sounds really autistic when I lay it out like that, but I didn't even really try to set this up, small convenience changes built up over time into a layout I can use for all classes.

reminder that the chosen people are miqo'te, designed to care for the land until the allags can come back, cull the male miqo'te minority who's only purpose was to in-force a patriarchal leadership structure and then use the relatively docile and biologically compatible females to regrow their population

i think that was the plan until the race evolved into 2 different offshoots and then we kill Xande and lock up CT in ARR, i do like how this games lore doesn't pull punches on such controversial subjects, mind you most of this stuff is outside the game so its no wonder a storm hasn't been cooked up yet

the punishment for being a homosexual male miqo'te is literally death but that doesn't stop faggots who most likely dont know

Kitchen cleanup is the duty of the lesser races, user. Don't be silly :^)

I stopped reading right there…

~O hohohoho!

Post dem Lalas

I don't think I've ever seen lala porn at all let alone this thread why is this?

You shouldn't have posted this.

Honestly most SJW dont play videogames so this stuff being outside the games would probably be convenient for them.
Source? also miqo'te confirmed kebab.

Absolute balderdash. Nothing but Anti-Semitic propaganda created by those who are short on coin.

did being nomadic desert people with harems not spell that out already
c@ still a best

Mate. Only master race is Hyur. I'mma sit here till you learn that.

Anyone have a 480p torrent of Garo? I want to watch on a tablet so anything bigger is a waste

aren't the ala mhiggers hyur? roe have the strongest men and most attractive women

user, I think you might be double gay.

user, trannies aren't women and you're gay for liking them.

So what do you think is going to happen in 3.55/Stormblood?
I reckon Yda will definitely leave the Scions. She'll remove her tattoo and move to Ala Mhigo to Make Ala Mhigo Great Again. She'll reveal her ditsy nature was all an elaborate ruse and she's actually royalty and her name is actually Sarah. She'll form her own resistance movement and lead her people to victory, mainly because you help her out because you're the only one who gets shit done. You'll bring in the grand companies to help, for example.
This will also go with the theory that the girl in the trailer is Yda, but she's sadly a monk and not a dancer.

I didn't say female, I said woman. It's all about the chemicals in our brain that only we understand. She isn't mentally ill, and if you question her identity she'll dedicate her life to getting you fired from your job, then kill herself.

The woman in red in the Stormblood trailer was a monk in fancy duds, not a dancer.

Sounds like "she" is.

Potatoes are the lesser race. Cursed with stubby legs and arms they depend upon other more capable races like the leeches they are.

Rest assured you continue to exist because of sympathy and nothing more.

What class additions are you hoping for on SB?
My wishlist is

a Cleric Stance for every healer so shitter asts and schs dont think its optional

they're removing the crossclass system entirely right? that means i'll no longer be kicked for not casting protect at the beginning of satasha as a scholar

miqo'te are based on pre-Christen, pre-Judaism and pre-Islamic tribes (so think goths, vikings, berbers, huns, mongols and seljuqs) who ended up commuting or moving to large cities to work (suncats in limsa) get paid to not fuck with civilization (suncats in forgotten springs) or are just a general tribal nuisance who when they are not slaughtering travelers are whoring themselves out to allied bandit groups (mooncats in the black shroud)


i mean ok im not one to judge, i shitpost cats all day anyway

Oh yeah that's gonna need some alternatives asap or it's gonna shit up the entire meta

They said they were reworking it so you get extra skills from a pool based on your role

i mean i think they should just drop cleric stance entirely and make dps skills scale on mind, replace it with some kind of CD that improves healing and damage dealt

shoo shoo, nigger.

They really should've allowed crossclass skills to pull from the new jobs. My WHM deserves a better additional action than fucking Blizzard 2, specifically Lightspeed.

Also there's nothing wrong with removing crossclass skills, as long as they get replaced. Giving players a choice that isn't really a choice is fucking stupid and that's 99% what crossclass skills are. The same goes for the bonus stats you get from leveling. The only time there's ever a decision to make about where to put them is for healers taking either mind or piety.

...

TRIGGERED
You meant to say cooldown.

So how's the new primal?

That would make healers even easier to play. We need to raise the skill ceiling, not lower the skill floor.

The miasma of jealousy and resentment behind your post is beyond compare!

If anything, I believe that our existence was intended to compensate for your people's lack of financial expertise and arcane talent. The lesser races have proven themselves grossly incompetent in such things.

I was taking way too much damage and barely able to keep aggro; I ended up running out of MP once from trying to flash spam and forgot I had that MP restoring skill. I'm just glad no one died due to my shittiness.

That's usually how a first Sastasha goes, early GLD fucking sucks.
