nah, man it just increases ilvl which then just syncs down to i80 in frontlines. It's no different than regular gear

The difference between it and regular gear, is you don't have acc on pvp gear. Which means you don't have nearly as many wasted stats that don't affect your killing speed at all, SS actually has a use in pvp also since you never have to worry about tp.

Wanna hear a good joke? Waste your time helping me! LOL!
Yeah, I kind of like it too. I mean, I joke about it a lot in-game [BUTT WINGS!!!], but I do get complimented quite a bit about them [when I'm in dungeons and such]. So we can't be the only ones that like it.

That Dreadwyrm Petasos of Casting though...
I freaked out the first time I saw a BLM on the dreadwyrm chest in DF. It was pretty damn cool to see in-game and the first time I had seen it at all.

The hat.... not really feeling it.

Haha, yeah. That hat is just...no. No thank you. It's a shame it's best in-slot for us, but that's what Glamour is for!

I might wear it for a day or two just for the fun of it, we'll see. [If it ever drops, that is.]

What rank are you now? This patch made changes to Morale gear, so it's like PvP Det, and they raised the rank cap to 45 and added 45 gear and weapons. Whenever you jump back in you're gonna melt faster than a nude BLM even with ilevel scaling

Rank 32.

Gotta try it at least once! Good luck on the drops, hope your luck is better than mine. Could never get a T9 weapon or a Shiva weapon to drop. All dread casting gear we have is better for SMN so we give it to him.
 
It does suck, but Emnity of my Enemy is one of the worst (saw your reddit post). I'm on my 5th book and only two others have been that long. It doesn't help that one of the other bad ones is Giant Seps, which is on the same book. I still don't mind it as much as original atmas.

I got Giant Seps pretty handy. Only had to wait there for like 20 minutes before it popped.

Enmity was awful for me because of the silver. I got it an hour later thanks to Scy and Korra helping me out, but that first time was torture. 2 hours waiting and a group of BLMs blow that shit up so I only got silver.

I just think anything that has a part of it where you basically have to afk camp a fate spawn is bad. I want to be playing the game, not sitting somewhere looking for a fate.

At least the hard part of this book is over now.
 
1v1 rite now bro ill reck u sware on me mum

idk, dmg output feels crazy now

they adjusted attack/defence and such in the last patch. Like jobs do 10-20% more physical/magic damage and classes have -20% physical or magic defence

this too, but I have missed in wolves den before which means there is some minimum acc requirement. They probably changed that with the later patches

Thanks, best of luck to you too.

We had some pretty great luck in the first week/two of Final Coil, but nothing lately. We have seen the Dreadwyrm Robe drop a couple of times, but it's already going to alts. I'd really like for the Gloves, Head, or Pants to drop [and obviously the weapon]. So many of the Dreadwyrm items are our best in-slot, the only ones that aren't are the Feet and the Earrings.

However, as you well know, it's nice to have all of the items just so you can move things around if you need to increase/decrease certain stats.

Regardless, I feel pretty great about the upcoming week. Tuesday, it will be a bounty of spoils for us all.

Probably more MNK/NIN loot. ;_;

I'm still hoping for the Staff/Pants dream for you on T13.

Alts be praised \o/
 
I just started this recently and Ive been wondering if there a good way to avoid aoe attacks centered on the mob? Currently I'm using a controller and have autolock on but when an aoe starts I hit R3 and run. But I could of sworn I did some kind of back dash move when fighting but havnt been able to replicate that. Playing a lancer btw.

Elusive Jump?

Other than displacement skills like that, it's really just ... run away from them.

As a lnc, your job is to land directly into the puddle of death. Sorry.
 
Hoping to see an increase in soldiery drop soon, doing these books as SCH means I'm gonna knock these books out long before I earn enough soldiery for the next one.

So I decided to jump back into FFXIV and there are so many changes it a little daunting to absorb them all. Does GAF have a Free Company still? If so, I think I'd like to join up again if possible. Hard to play this game without folks to chat with. My character's name is Aswansea Chaine.

You were on Sargatanas weren't you? If you still want to stick around we have space.

Just unlock and run away.

It's apparently now completely okay to just openly spoil T13 in FC chat. I mean, everyone's fucking cleared it by now right, so why the fuck not? There's a statute of limitations on this shit bro, amirite?

Scything just reasonably mentioned that you're complaining about spoilers for T13...by spoiling T13.

And you spoilered the player instead...

I thought I would give the player a chance to not be openly named and shamed this time. I could have left his name un-spoiled if I wanted, but I'm not a dick. Most of the time.

<<<REDACTED IMAGE>>>

It's been out for like 2 months, it's not that big of a deal, I don't think.

Lol, I don't even know what to say. Seriously, who could possibly be the final boss of the Final Coil of Bahamut? Certainly not him.

[FC]<Ilyasviel Einzbern> please continue to spoil T13 in open FC chat

Please continue to spoil it in the OT for those that didn't see that message in the FC chat.

Huh, I wonder who the last boss of the final coil of bahamut is?

People keep saying this, but it's not at all obvious. Just going by the opening cutscene Bahamut is way to big to face as a party. I wouldn't be expecting it.

Judging from what I've seen having beat up to T9 I would guess the boss was (T9 post cutscene spoliers!)
Louisoix all uglied up like Nael was.

This. I haven't gotten to T13 yet but
I assumed Bahamut Prime was some miniature bullshit reincarnated vessel for the real Bahamut. The real Bahamut was trapped in a goddamn moon.

I can't even think about the actual issue (and there obviously is some kind of spoiler expiration date because people openly discuss Nael and have since back when T9 was the top-tier content) because I'm so distracted by the thought process behind what's happening here. My first instinct when somebody does something i consider assholeish to me is not to turn around and do the literal exact same thing to a wider audience.

OT gonna OT I guess.

I'm having an incredibly hard time understanding why you're then posting the spoiler here. Since you got spoiled, you thought you'd spoil it for me and everyone else here who didn't know about it either? Good job man.

It's just fine, people are making fun of me openly in FC chat so I guess what I'm talking about is a total non-issue. So don't worry about it, because nobody cares.

It is an issue though and this isn't the first time this has happened. People need to stop shaming others for how they want to experience the game. Who cares how obvious it may or may not be who the final boss is. If someone doesn't want that ruined (such as yourself), then they have every right not to be spoiled.

People here need to stop justifying this stuff, too, by making fun of people and then being like "Well it's okay they should have known to begin with." or whatever cause guess what? It's not okay. People need to learn to have a little more respect for other people. I mean, I get maybe saying it without thinking about it, but the appropriate response is to say sorry and move on, not make fun of the person and try to make them feel bad.

That being said, you really should delete that spoiler- just because people were jerks about it and ruined it for you doesn't mean you need to do the same for others.

edit- I will say, I don't feel like there was any intention of harm or anything in what was initially said- my main issue is the people coming after who feel like they have to make fun of someone being displeased about what was said. And a lot of my annoyance is a combo of some of the stuff I've seen people say now and a lot of what happened the last time as well.
