FINAL FANTASY XIV Celebrating the Holidays in Eorzea

Cute video.
"How will you spend your Holidays in Eorzea?"
Well since my dailies end today, maybe not at all.
Yeah it's pretty fun with all the different AOE skills you can use. Level 50 summoner was pretty boring single target (Ruin, ruin, ruin) so I'm glad they added some stuff. I still need to play around with Dreadwyrm Trance to see how that should work.
Really loving ninja at the mo' and I'm still cracking up over the Rabbit Medium that appears when you mess up your Mudra.
I think they already explained why they don't want to be too quick to nerf the difficulty. I can see why they would, to be honest, considering how many people I've heard saying they want to beat X "before nerfs".

Really wanted the price to come down before getting heavenward, $20 would have been awesome, but I just had to get it. $30 on Amazon. Now I can finally resume those story quests on my level 50 Dragoon.
I was going to make a post about the Cash Shop sale ($14 Slepnir), but got distracted by the picture they use to sell pastel pink dye:
ZR sells, right?

Thanks, I found that last night and did it overnight. Good thing to because everytime I put the disc in it says it's unreadable. Maybe damaged from spinning in disc drive too long because it's only disc that doesn't work and I hardly ever take it out.

In other news healing on Throdan EX still sucks. I've come to the realization that it feels like I'm not either not healing smart enough during holy bladedance or the tanks I'm dealing with aren't CDing wisely because it seems like most tanks during this use their IMMORTAL skill rather than regular CDs during the first holy baldedance.
A lot of tanks Hallowed/Living Dead/Holmgang the first Sword Oath Bladedance they get because it means they can stay in DPS stance for the duration of Sword Oath and increases your odds of killing the first knight before the buffs swap. Since there's nothing anywhere near there in the fight that needs the immortal skill, it's smart skill usage. Shield Oath gets CD'd, and if you somehow get another Sword Oath Bladedance, you CD that too. But you shouldn't get that.

Ahh, well that makes sense then. As a healer my first instinct is I'm not healing properly whenever I see their HP bar near flatline in the case of WAR/DRK.
Well if that's their plan you should discuss it before hand. That way you aren't trying to get shields/virus up and can prepare to get them back up from 1hp instead.
I know its not a huge deal but it is for me, here I am 3 man fighting ifrit extreme

Second conviction towers in Thordan are such a pain. I don't think I've ever made it through without getting stunned by the ground AoE afterwards. Well, unless I just leave the towers to everyone else (though in PF groups that's pretty much playing Russian roulette). Maybe I'm just not timing it correctly with my latency. Luckily tetra is a thing now but it seems like such a waste.
Do the later phases ever not feel clunky? I guess I just prefer a fight like Ravana where it's all so... static.

There is a particular tower in most configurations that basically HAS to eat a stun.
Just gonna say this randomly.
I really miss Coil. ;-;
It's not neccessery, it just requires good timing and a bit of risk. Granted, it's generally safer to eat a stun if there's any doubt.

Yea, I've never seen the stun overlap the tower completely right away. I usually stand as far from where the stun aoe is coming from while still being in the tower. Then the stun should cover half of the tower and shortly after the second half, so after the first stun goes off I just run forward so I never leave the tower and avoid both stuns.

I do as well. They did an incredible job slowly slowly building up the hype for the final fight with Bahamut. Like that moment when you first get to T5 and realize your fighting on Bahamut's hand? Fucking fantastic.
Don't lie. You popped back in here just to answer that.
Most people miss Coil. Coil was fun, had great music and the lore behind it was really interesting.
YO BROS.
If anyone is interested, my static raid group has a spot for a melee DPS, and a bard / machinist. If you have a good handle on your rotations and are comfortable using voice chat, send Lorde Doome or Red Xiii a whisper in-game, or me a PM on neogaf. Experience with A3S is preferred, although we can get you up to speed if need be.
Our hours are typically 7 - 9 PM eastern on TUE / THUR / SAT. We're reasonably flexible with the schedule though, so we can adjust it later if we have to.

Bonus points if you're cool with an 8PM - 10PM raid time because that would be super cool.

sounds like someone doesnt want those 7-10 grind days
I'd be totally cool with a 3 hour raid day. Sometimes I get stuck at work though so it's like I walk in the door and then it's raid time. Doesn't happen all the time but if we could push it back a tiny bit and everyone in the group would be cool with it that'd be sweet.
It's up to the group though, just throwing that out there.

Implying that knowing about ZR is shameful, don't even pretend
You don't need all that much since you can gather everything. The only annoying things to get would be chimera manes and crawling cocoon since they are enemy drops.
