At this point should I just watch videos of Alex and Baha turns story? Because I'm on T9 Bahamut and I doubt I'll manage to complete all the content ever...
People still do unsync Coil runs for Wondrous Tails so you might want to check your PF on Tuesday when it resets. Alexander you can just solo queue for Normal mode and clear everything easily.

Stormblood is looking so good! 4 more weeks!
JP dev blog via Reddit: "Will it cleanse?" the answer is apparently coming as part of 4.0's UI changes (among other things).

That's pretty good. WoW has this.
But I hope they'd increase number of appearances of cleansable debuffs in dungeons too, I can't remember the last time they were a big problem other than... I dunno,
last boss in Hullbreaker HM?

Maybe once I get more story context I will like the song more? For now I will say this isn't Susan's best song so far in my opinion but I don't think she will ever outperform Answers not only because of the song itself but because of the story context attached to the song.
My rankings for the songs she sang before:
1- Answers (Final Fantasy XIV 1.0)
2- Melodies of Life (Final Fantasy IX)
3- Dragonsong (Final Fantasy XIV 3.0)
4- Revolutions (Final Fantasy XIV 4.0)
5- Eyes on Me (Final Fantasy VIII)

Sounds like a general war march sort of thing.
So far I rank it third among the three shown so far.
Maybe it will be better with story context.

Susan Calloway didn't sing the original versions of Eyes on Me and Melodies of Life. I guess she sang them for some concerts though? Also you are missing Distant Worlds from FFXI on this list.
I like Revolutions a lot, it ranks above Dragonsong for me. But, not better than Answers of course.

A cursory glance at the lyrics tells me pretty much what I expected the plot to be about anyway. War stirs passions, but guard against unchecked fury and desire for justice. There are human costs to war; one side's victory is the other's widow-maker. Apathy and contentment dooms liberty to a distant memory. There is no glory in war and all sides are potentially being played against each other by shadowy hands (no shit!).
I'm looking forward to what appears to be a
rivalry, if only also because the latter has the potential to represent
Answers > Revolutions > Dragonsong
I acknowledge they are all very different songs though.
I'm looking forward to what appears to be a
Lyse and Formoda
nuanced third factions in this conflict so it's not just a black-and-white good guys under the Eorzean Alliance banner with determined Ala Mhigans versus all of Garlemald.

1. No. Can even find it at a discounted price at other places, like GMG.
2. Not that I'm aware of. If you bought the Steam version though you can pay using your Steam Wallet and those cards go on sale a few times a year.
3. Not that I'm aware of. Closest thing I can think of are the Lore Train articles over at one of the wikis but they're written as long articles that focus on a few subjects at a time instead of traditional wiki entries. Second closest thing would be the official lore book, but it's physical only.

That's why my rankings are for songs she sang before so I didn't claim she was the original vocalist for Eyes on Me and Melodies of Life.
Yes she sang those two songs for the Distant Worlds concerts before and I hope that Susan Calloway shows up to sing during the 30th Anniversary Distant Worlds concert that takes place in September here in Chicago as I'm thinking of attending the concert.
No FFXI songs on my list since I have never played that game and I never will.
But if it's just for songs she sang why not include Distant Worlds...this list follows no logical rules, it is breaking me >_<

Well I didn't say I would rank every song she sang...just my top 5 picks
Well, your main issue here is that you have Eyes on Me. Its an absolute shitty song no matter who sings it. Uematsu's worst musical composition by far.
Hey guys, I'm looking for a new tank for our raid group effective immediately, PM me if you're interested.
This is sarcasm...probably

Make a cross world party finder and say coil unsynced free bonus points and you'll be done within an hour.
Never really felt much love for Susan Calloway. There are some bits of Answers that I don't like (the Hear, Feel, Think part for instance) because of how she performs it and it usually takes me out of it if it's on the Orchestrion as opposed to hearing it in T13 or the opening movie. The songs she sings on are pretty great as a whole but not specifically because of her performance I feel.
Wrong!

How dare you!!
Assuming your in Ultros I challenge you to a 1 vs 1 match when the game goes back up! No shenanigans either so no only DPS are allowed.
VIII is my second favorite Final Fantasy and in a game with fantastic music I'd have to agree that Eyes on Me is very crap.
I really like Revolutions, but I've really enjoyed every main theme so far. If I had to list them then it's probably number 3 (1. Answers, 2. Dragonsong) but that's because I need to hear it in game, in the moment! Dragonsong peaked for me during The Final Steps of Faith.
I really hope that the sequence that Revolutions plays in is not a singular trial. This sounds like an amazing track to go with the march of the allied armies as they move to liberate Ala Mhigo and Doma. A battle of that scale that you could actually participate in would be a treat.

Lol shit I forgot my SE ID password, lost my emergency token removal password and I also lost access to my SE authenticator because I switched phones since I last played.
Contacted support just now, hopefully they can help.

This is a very weird and specific problem to have but do any of you guys have a clue as to how I might order a German digital copy of Stormblood on PSN in America?
My girlfriend has a German PSN and European FF14 account and I'm desperately trying to find a way to get her a digital copy of Stormblood for her birthday in a few days. PSN doesn't accept foreign credit cards and Amazon won't send me a digital PSN code because I don't have a German address. She doesn't either as she no longer lives in Germany, but because of the 19 different ways FF14 is region locked I can't buy her an American copy.
I could import a physical copy but that will be expensive and I think a receipt will be less special than seeing it owned on her account or whatever. I'm sure you guys get what I mean.

Play-Asia sells digital PSN gift cards for Germany.
There's a markup involved, but I've ordered JP PSN cards with them before and it's worked fine. Not sure if this lets you do what you want to do.

Yes! Absolutely. Thank you! I swear I looked there earlier and didn't see German cards.
Also their 50 EUR card is only $51 which is less than a direct exchange even would be, so that's pretty crazy.

If you have any questions, I can't guarantee they'll be answered, but you have an hour (until 4:30pm ET/1:30pm PT) to post them here and we'll ask the ones we feel semi-certain they'll actually answer.
I'm not at the event this time around, but we have someone from USgamer there.

Hmm... my first instinct was to ask if they would say anything else about crafting/gathering, but from what I've read, they aren't planning many changes and have basically already revealed what little information they're willing to at this time.

Does Bard still have Wanderer's Minuet? If so, have there been any changes to Bard in order to address some of the more poorly received aspects of Minuet?
What is the new raid's difficulty level compared to Creator?
Since the specialist system for crafting will be brought into Stormblood, will there be any adjustments to the actions to make them more viable?
Will 4.0 bring new Grand Company ranks, and if so, will there be any benefits to new ranks beyond an increased currency cap?
In 3.0 there were pretty clear cut examples of fights in which Paladin excelled over Dark Knight and vice-versa. Will 4.0 continue this trend or will there be a balance of physical vs. magical damage?
After the Astrologian buffs in later 3.0 patches many players began to feel as though Astrologian had completely taken over White Mage's role in party composition. Have there been any big changes to White Mage to make it more attractive to parties?
Some of these I believe have been answered broadly. Specifically I think Yoshi P has said Omega will be about as difficult as Creator. Some others I think they will be unlikely to answer just because they're pretty specific, but thank you for the opportunity!

Great main theme but I'd pin it as just another Dragonsong. Answers is still the Queen of FFXIV's OST. I see good things out of these cutscenes... lots of lore building, a strong evil female character (if she doesn't end up being another Ysayle that is) and a great antagonist that is not an Ascian behind the scenes waiting for his turn to come up.
Lyse has a really nice new outfit but I bet it will be mogstation only, lol.
On Alisae
We knew she was a red mage ever since the Warriors of Darkness Arc.
red mage confirmed
Under the Samurai and Red Mage hype... there's probably not much else waiting in this expansion though. I can easily see myself taking a break after the main story of Stormblood and get back into it at a later time. Meh, we'll see. I'm just not excited for endgame at all if it's going to be the same old stuff.

Are they gonna make old stuff easier for people?
I mean 2.0 and 3.0 are gonna be a bloat to get through, any changes coming?
I'd like to experience Coil and Alexander if Solo >_>; or hell Light Party!
I mean come on!

Is the new Warrior skill shown the other day a self buff or an area of effect attack?

Will Eureka be released in 4.0 or do we have to wait till a later patch?
Is BRD still getting some big changes?
Can we expect the hime cut hairstyle for every race?
Butt sliders?

Has relic armour become something possible to implement or is it still just a suggestion? I doubt they will answer this.
I'm going to echo the post above me about tank balance. I'd like to ask a similar question.
"Regarding Tank balance, what are the changes you think career Tanks will most enjoy come Stormblood launch?
Thanks!
I'm actually wondering what people think about this. I'm almost certain it's a buff I just can't think of what it does. The ideas I have based on the image (The Warrior covered in red, eyes glowing, basically exploding with energy/anger) are super overpowered and I'm praying that they don't make the best tank even better.

Can they trade boob sliders for butt/thigh sliders? Or make it so you have to split points between both (team max butt).
Also ask if they can include junk/bulge slider for people who want it.

I personally think it's a self buff. And after seeing that pic I think the bolded is exactly what's going to happen.
