"What is Thaliak even the god of?" -a scholar main

The "bears" segment in Porta Decumana had me in tears, but "van Bearsar" still managed to catch me completely off-guard. Almost choked on my water when that came up XD

"The end has come" x50 lmao The edits on that Zodiark fight were the best xD

I laughed at the Lahabrea "cutscene" there more than i really should have b e a r s

I would be down to see a "day in the life of having fun in FF14" video every now and then. The achievement of work/life balance is the real hardest grind.

The P in Yoshi-P stands for "Please dont guve me Praetorium in roulettes"

Wait a minute, what do you mean it isn't Monday anymore?

6:52 "Why is my weapon pentamelded with piety?" I might have a certain crafter in mind in could have done such a thing

29:10 I've had a 50 min Ultima run, so I can confirm, dying on phase 2 doesn't restart the encounter, it just goes back to the post cutscene time.

I understand your healing comments. As a WHM main, healing with a different job causes some hesitation on what skills are needed, and the like

The "bears" section killed me. 🤣🤣

"A spell without parallel: Bears" sent me

I am such a child. " the end has come, come, come, come, and it will be beautiful" Didn't think guild hests gave tombstones. But I know daily frontline does.

i love it when he said 'bears' and then beared all over the youtube video the edits in zodiark and ultima got me lmao a shame you had to go through zodi playing whm, but at least it afforded you an interesting exp :P

The Page 63 book minion comes from Great Gubal Library (Normal), but you can also get it from Bronze trimmed Sacks from POTD, or from the Aquapolis

"Unleash bears". That's what Larian said when they released BG3

I'm losing it over "the end has come........ come...... come....... come......" EDIT: Never mind, the Ultima part has slain me. Remember me. Remember how I bears.

The juice jugs you mentioned during the raid are Barrel Hugs (use them for the nephews). And the goddess hug flavor would be Blue Raspberry... just because.

"The world shall tremble! UNLEASH..... bears." I DIED

I did not expect a mini YTP in this but I'm glad it was there.

Hunt trains were how I finished all my Manderville relics since it's relatively easier than doing mechanics in roulettes and triple dips in capped tomes/nuts for 660 gear, uncapped tomes for relics, and hunt achievements (still need 2.4k A ranks to reach 10k)

IDK how you managed to summarize my entire journey as a WHM in this game, but "I got distracted by the healthbars" is pretty much it.

Against you, Cider, Shisui of the Violet Tides was probably my favorite dungeon in Stormblood. ^_^

Hey, another Azeyma patron! I knew I chose wisely there. And I do love how much Lahabrea loves bears.

Well, given that it's Thaliak's fight, I'm guessing that the Magic Space God Hug is wisdom flavoured. But also considering that the next fight is Llymlaen, it could also just be her bath water.

The ultimate weapon cutscene edit had me laughing so much

On the "can't do anything while running from room to room" part, you totally can! Regen the tank, and then go down the aggro list and cast Dia on every mob. It will knock a few percent off each mob's HP while you're running and ultimately make the trash pulls that much faster. Also for Scarmeglione or however you spell it, you can put out literagy of the bell after the add phase and that will keep everyone topped off while those AOEs hit.

"White Mage at 50 sucks." I couldn't agree more. It's so heavily reliant on Lilies these days that going back to a level range before you had them is just painful. It makes me dread even queuing for things like Alliance Roulette as one since we still get CT more than anything else by far. But maybe we're just spoiled... :P

The glorious femroe, Midlander of the Week, the Cutscene Viewing DRK, and the other White Mage who carried on the Zodiark run were happy to be there, even if most of us got owned by the george foreman grill. "Is that Mad Because Small? I think that's Mad Because Small. I'm gonna say hi." "You lali-ho'd him." "Lali-ho means hi." Meanwhile Cider looked up at Zodiark and said, this mfer said "come."

Seeing the other capped tomes hurt me, and I know that was the purpose of it. A+ psychic damage to me, keep doing it!

Those Zodiark edits 🤣🤣🤣 28:36 that cheeky bear. I'm crying XD

Never thought I'd be reminded of the good ol' days of 25 cent hugs and the magical hug is clearly grape, the lowpoly ones straight from labyrinthos.

Yeah, Alliances peaked at Orbonne Monastery. But I think you said the reason why in the same video: people didn't want fun, they wanted the in and out of Crystal Tower. So the devs probably double downed on making it easy on the massive amount of new players AND the people that just wanted easy tomes. So among blaming Yoshi-P, the devs, or new players, I blame us. Or some aspect wanting the easy daily grind. But that's what expert is for.

"Those 2B leggings might be the only thing that got me through this dungeon" Truer words never spoken.

Aww, I love the trash mob boss of Troia. Might be because I really only play tank, but having a boss that was so radically different and where you really have to think about how you use your AoE OGCDs was hella fun

behold: BEARS.

"Who gave him tenties" my money's on it was Lahabrea's idea, given #JustBreadThings

Actually cried laughing at the bears bit. My god.

Perfect timing! Im about to go level miner and needed something to watch!

You had me laughing like fool at work with that Ultimate Weapon edit. And yes I remember Hugs. Always wanted to buy the big 12 pack that was like 2 dollars

"Come" - Gaius van Bears Edit: On Porta Decumana, if you die in the second phase of Ultima it does checkpoint to the second phase. Yeah, wiping is awful. Edit: Do not disrespect Knowledge Daddy. Knowledge Daddy is hot, and he knows things.

Lahabrea: "Behold, the magic of BEARS!" *Bloodmoon Ursaluna appears from thin air* Bloodmoon Ursaluna: "WHO DOTH SUMMON ME FROM THE DEPTHS OF HELL? THEY SHALL KNOW *FEAR*!" *ROAR*

23:42 omfg the "come, come, come" combined with the viera voice had me fucking dying 💀💀💀

“Oh my god, the Paladin is casting Clemency. Why don’t you trust me?” I ask myself the same when they cast it above 70% health 🙃

Dude i love your editing so much :D it makes me crack up so much XD

Can't wait to run into you doing extremes in mentor roulette Cider! It's been a hell of a few weeks in Mentor Roulette land.

I very much appreciate you just making a KZfaq poop out of the Lahabrea cutscene.

That Bear is certainly a spell unparalleled.

Lovely video cider!

Had the dps both eat the citadel buster constantly as scholar because they didn’t care, ultima just resets to second phase

I remember drinking Hugs as a kid and those papercuts hurt like a mf 😅 And I'll say the giant Hug in the sky is grape blue raspberry flavor 😋

The end has come, come, come, come... And it it will be beautiful!

Man that Ultima Weapon reimagined cutscene was unBEARable 🤣🤣🤣. I laughed so hard.

As one of the Tanks for that fight at 21:00 I'm so sorry it was my first time doing it lmao.

When you take Urianger into a trust dungeon, he has an instant death spell, where he says ALL THAT I AM, AND MORE, I BRING TO BEAR!! My friend and I meme on Urianger bringing his bears all the time. I was not physically ready for your "bear" edits oh my FUCK.

I like the idea that the elemental aether somehow works better if the aesthetic matches the element, so since Zodiark is using a lot of dark aether some guy in Amaurot was like "okay i've calculated a 22% increase of efficiency if we give him tentacles and demon horns" and they just added it same reason pandemonium looks like hell

Hunt trains were my saving grace with getting tomestones for the manderville relics

"I was fully prepared to sacrifice all of their lives." My new gaming mantra. And Porta Bears can be failed when idiots stand in Citadel Buster. You restart at phase 2, thank goodness.

>We need a monday video Cider out here getting me worried I missed work for a second

Honestly I've been worried with your work/life balance since you've been so on top of your achievement hunt for a long while. Content creation really is a beast of its own and you have been taming it well. I love your personality and sense of humor regardless of what you play or what your XIV goal may be for the week! I really enjoyed your Mincraft video, so I hope to see more of that too! Take care, gamer. Don't let the burnout catch ya!❤

Those sound edits were amazing.

that hug is 100% blueberry and you cant tell me otherwise

Great video, CIder!

In dungeons as a WHM, the majority of your normal healing is just hots. I try to keep hots on the tank at all times. Also, the stun from holy lasts long enough that I usually weave in a medica II after the first, to get the max stun duration and get some hots out. After HOTs, the instant heals from your lilies and tegrogram are your next go to. Tetrogram is an OGC, so it’s pretty easy to weave in. I never cast cure II unless it’s free. Spamming cure, will cause cure II to proc a free cast.

Just wanted to pop on here to say I really enjoy watching your videos. I feel Iike my feed is flooded with negativity but this channel and gtlive are giving me life rn LOL so thanks ❤

29:04 for the record, you restart at phase 2. We wiped at the Ultima phase once, because the tank DC'd and we lost the Limit Break gauge right at that time. lol

I only just found this yesterday at work, idk how i missed it the first time! The "bears" part had me fuckin dying of laughter. AND THE BEST PART?? Lahabrea's voice actor in ARR is Kyle Hebert ("eh-bear" is how i've heard it pronounced) and the edit is so perfect. +10 Mister Spider, i applaud you

8:00 I liked Abyssos too. I received of it Death, and was honored. And eventually, vice versa. P8s p2 is one of my favorite fights out of Pandemonium, and that voice line has lived rent-free in my head since.

EW A trains are a great source of tomes

If you need EW A ranks this is a good time to do it when you still need the tomes. I had already finished my achievement but did hunts anyway to finish all relics and enjoyed some quality second monitor content while doing it. Love your videos

Shisui of Violet Tides has the bestest gear sets; tube tops and short skirts? Yes and yes! Do try a glam set!

The big God Hug has to be blue raspberry

The editing is really good, appreciate the effort!... Even if the vid does get posted on.. second Monday? 😂

i love watching my room light up with every Holy

Dungeon WHM pro(?) tip: when running between mobs, I just slap aero/dia dots on as many of the enemies as I can before all the mobs are pulled and we stop. And yes, WHM before afflatus misery sucks. Because I don't want to be banned IRL, the hug is probably pomegranate flavor. Truth be told though, I don't actually know what those are.

Standing out of the multi-hit stack is one of those "I'm a genius... oh no!" moments, if the targeted player dies it'll just hop to you and kill you instantly as you'll have no one to share with.

The most terrifying of all spells, Bears! I would hate to be on the receiving end of that one... >.>

Patiently waiting for Blue Mage content.

"On White Mage you have to just stand there and take it." >Laughs in lilybell

I kinda wish you had edited in Athena's TREMBLE on top of Lahabrea's in Porta Decumana. This concludes my algorithm-mandated engagement. Your achievement series prompted me to start working on getting checkmarks on every leve in the game. Heavensward is devouring my soul, four Large-scale leves a week.

I could not watch the video yesterday but thats good so I had something to look forward to today. :D And I like the Roulette Videos :D (And B E A R S)

Cider Spider just casually dropping a funnier YTP edit than most actual YTP videos 6:18 why stop there? just change it all the way into Sage and it'll be even better :P

I lost it at the Bears part x'DDDD Also Cotton candy for the hug i think

Van Bearsar Thanks I snorted my coffee at that one

the edit on laha's speech XD

lahabrea displays his right to bear arms

"We can improve the White Mage kit by making it Scholar,". -CiderSpider, 2024

TIL I haven't run MSQ Roulette since...*checks notes*...6.1, because Porta Decumana was completely new to me. They actually split Praetorium up and made it not suck quite as much? And this happened...*checks notes*...two YEARS ago? Holy cow. O_o Also, the bears had me HOWLING.

The Zodiark trial was real. When I got there during the MSQ I experienced my first full 60 minute lockout ejection. The stars would fall, we would lose 2 - 3 people and 2 - 3 more would have vuln stacks. Then he would to the corner to corner and a couple would go flying. Then he would multi hit stack and the understaffed and half vulnerable survivors would just be beaten to death. Every. Time. So many just couldn't keep up. Thank God we got him on the second try.

Thaliak is my patron. His hug jug is full of purple drank. He did partake of his own hug jug. Tried to conjure sacred geometry to impress us and all that came out was triangle.

I love these roulette videos

"the end has come" "and it will be beautiful... come" i don't remember zodiark saying come that many times on my playthrough

"this is but a GLIMPSE--" really got me lmao

i warn you spider. Mentor roulette has a couple stinkers in it that you don't wanna get. Especially as a DPS mentor. Rumah EX Seaph EX (Scales lady) WoL EX / Hades EX But you can also get GUILD HESTS in mentor roulette and we know how easy those are.

Thanks for making the next 20 Lahamonologues more BEARable... Also, I feel like whatever the color, that Sky Hug is "grape" flavored.

I work where they make those little hugs, that one is Wild berry for sure

You're pretty good at the game, but the most impressive thing is using the condensed inventory setting. Drove me nuts.

Honestly Cider, I just enjoy seeing you game. It's good to have a goal but sometimes you really need to break from that goal and do things that are chill. Don't burn yourself out just for us. Last thing we want you doing is making the game a second job. Just enjoy yourself and if you wanna work at a goal, do it when you feel you can, no pressure.

"Finger of the Apostate" always makes me think of something else...

That is a blue flavor Hug. Blue is a flavor.
