The Shield Swipe change is something at least. I wonder if it still has the blocked hit requirement in order for you to use it (like parry for Reprisal).
One step at a time.

No block hit requirement, but apparently it still has the block proc too. So it's like a weak reprisal.
I use Thendiel's advanced opener from here. Obviously if you're not using a potion (since you won't be in most content outside of Savage Alex) you can swap where the potion would go with Leg Sweep+Power Surge and move the jump up to after Chaos Thrust instead of the 4th combo hit. I'd recommend reading all his initial posts in that thread.
This post goes into why it's Heavy Thrust -> Chaos Thrust combo first.
Your Full Thrust isn't buffed by Internal Release or Battle Litany, and your 4th combo hit after Full Thrust isn't buffed by B4B, Battle Litany or Internal Release. Neither is Spineshatter Dive in that scenario. With Heavy Thrust -> Chaos Thrust combo, all the oGCDs line up perfectly and everything in your opener is buffed by your self buffs.

BTW: As long as we're on the issue of subs.
I'm still rather opposed to Free to Play, but I do think the game needs to have a lower bar for participation. Maybe a lower priced sub that locks out most optional content, or, something. I know a quite a few people that were subbed at one point, who are adamant that they just can't justify the 12-15USD a month price tag due to how little time they have to play.
Definitely don't want free to play though. Microtransactions everywhere would be annoying as heck.

Oh yes, that was hilarious! XD Lord of Wyvern's be destroying peeps!
Yeah I actually rather enjoyed that environment. Made them seem like pretty epic monsters.

Well, better than competing with 23 other people for them I guess.
time to head back to the Tower then. Must have Onion Knight

You meant terrible RNG mode PVP right? Because we destroyed the other teams in the other types.
Provides it's only DF content as described, double caster will still be fine for progression. By the time raids hit DF for full parties LB speed is usually not a factor. I don't want to do A3S adds without double caster so here's hoping that's still viable.
So like it'll maybe be a problem for the new primals, but those are lower tuned anyway and never really require a specific LB.

Uh no. Node RNG only has an impact on close games near the end at times, but otherwise it's not the reason you're losing. I swear people come up with the craziest stuff to blame PVP losses on anything but poor strategy or lack of team work. Everything from RNG to win trading.
Yeah, was still thinking of an earlier comment about tank things on that one, rip
for A1-A3, we went MNK over SMN for A4S.
but like Angary mentioned earlier, it shouldn't matter for current Savage until after 3.2
Your party is double caster too same as us, right?
Only good glamour thing ever
Get your BLM to go dragoon, problem solved!
Hm, maybe. I just figured being able to slowly but assuredly get your existing esoteric pieces to 210 would be more appealing than trying to get a party or alliance and potentially winning a potentially well-rolled drop that's potentially i210. On the bright side, hunts will free up some airship lines.
True on the esoteric caps. There are times I've thought about burning my one item restore to get back a quick two weeks of the current tomestone of the day.
lol You've met our BLM
Yeah. You could do better. That one has an attitude problem.
If you count an atheryte and mounts as a cosmetic upgrade then sure

The old groups that PVP'd for Gridania on Primal just don't do this mode, most find it boring or too random. This new group of people don't understand when they should disengage from a battle at all. I don't care what you say, the RNG is a factor, even when Gridania does win. It's an awful mode, like nearly everything else in 3.0. It's still better than that second Mid PVP though.
No, each patch, the zone cosmetically changed. It was neat seeing a small outpost turn into a large castle.
You know that's not what I meant. XD
PS: No RNG in Seize is not nearly as big a factor as skill. Groups that know how to press and take nodes can make a good run at things and dominate even with poor RNG. Groups that don't know how to press nodes, and spook easily, get destroyed even if they get wonderful RNG.
RNG makes a difference in close matches between two or more similarly skilled groups, but most of the time it's pretty irrelevant.

Convince him you need Battle Litany.
I had battle litany once, it was amazing. ;_;
Wanna fight about it?
Like any of you could convince me of anything. I'm too stubborn.
Weren't you convinced to finally get Quelling Strikes?
No you're not.
No, I was bored enough to get quelling. No other games to play at the time and ded gaem 2.5 drove me to leveling random garbage.
There has to be a lack of other games too. I started playing SWTOR again and there's FO4 and blade and soul beta weekends D:
Idk about that.
Hmmm... you're probably right. I did a check just recently on the damage of all the moves and I realised I wasn't respecting Phleb enough since it's quite a powerful strike in its own right.
I don't really do it the way OP laid out to be honest. I was just suggesting to move the Phlebotomize which shouldn't really push everything out since you have to do it anyway. I'm still experimenting at this stage and trying to figure everything out so you can probably take anything I say on the subject with a pinch of salt.
Lie! You did it during 3.0 and it was because I complained
The heavy lifting was done in 2.55. By the time I was leveling it in 3.0, I was already at the part where you go out to a beach and pick up a bunch of bottles

Is hoping this will reduce PvP ques too much to ask?
Might it be safe to come back to Ninja?
Those were some pretty long patch notes. ;_; forgot all about the additional minions, cards, and mounts that come with patches. Hopefully those are tied to content I actually want to do.
Also hope the gear from that airship exploration currency isn't conducive to weeks and weeks of grinding. :/

If that's 3.0 Y'shtola's outfit, then GG. I've wanted that chest and boots for so long.
Naul Mount is from Centurio Seals, lol.
New logs will be 500 seals. All but certain cap will be raised from 500 to 4000 like Allied Seals. 4 logs for Gobcoat, 6 logs for Gobtwine. Need to upgrade 3 left side so 9000 seals....time to hunt like a mad man.
Still waiting on confirmation that the remark during the Live Letter that Pegasus Mount is from trading in Diadem gear for some currency to buy the whistle/horn is fact.

Protip.
Pick up this week's Centurio B rank, but don't actually do it. On Sunday pick up your dailies, but don't actually do those either.
Come Tuesday, do both immediately, than pick up the new ones for that week and do those as well. That should give you a couple hundred extra Centurio Seals immediately, without needing to compete for As and Ss.

Isn't Yda's outfit like just... stock stuff?
Pretty much
who needs gaius glamour, let paladins glamour their sword and shield to these babies
New seal cap is 1000.
