Also my compliments on the outstanding glamour. White mages in Gridania traditionally wear whites robes woth a little red on them. You kept the motif but switched it around. Instead of a large white robe, you made a large white Miq'ote. Then you reversed the color values on the robe. Instead of a lot of white (now fur color) on the robe, you reversed it and made it red. People look at your character and know something is a bit off but can't quite figure it out. Bravo.

I want to know why Autistic males typically role play as Miq'ote girls?

Time Stamp 16:30 Anyone one else watching the raid footage and thinking to themselves "Where the F*ck is this? I've never seen this before.?"

After a few minutes watching this video and what the animations look like I came to realize White Mage is actually a Water Mage, as all the animations look like or contain water. Even the only dps attack looks like a clump of river rocks.

i have a lot of love in my heart for sigmascape because it was the first savage tier i beat on content (i'd done a few savage fights in hw but didn't consider myself a skilled enough player to actually try raiding for real until i got invited by a group in stormblood), but i think my favorite fight to date is seat of sacrifice ex. i think it's cool, i think it's fun, i think it's challenging, and i love the parallels to player mechanics that he uses. as someone commented on an upload of to the edge: it's him. mr finalfantasy

This is simply amazing. As a veteran player I will now link your guide to all my friends that'll start XIV in DT :) Congrats on your guide!

guilds reducing what they show to prevent secrets getting out, Wow I never knew anyone raided like that anymore. I no longer have what it takes to do progression gameplay in MMOs but did it in Everquest and back then secrecy was everything. I just figured it died off once raiding went instanced in all games. Its interesting to see what progression raiding has become since those years long ago though. This stuff is way harder than anything I remember in EQ, of course the EQ stuff was hard AF for its era but looking back the mechanics were non existent compared to anything modern.

Yay

very well made video thank you for your hard work. i'm surprised to see people doing ultimate with full party effects wow.

I'm okay with Red Mage being mostly unchanged. Its become my 'comfort' job, and what I usually play through MSQ with 😎

Please just Kaiten over and over and over for 2 minutes. I miss it.

Big fan of Dragoon and Black Mage changes. Will have to look into this.

RIP spineshatter dive. I don't get the point of making it a dash and removing the damage. I already used it as a good gap closer so now it's just less cool and less useful. Feels like it was changed just for the sake of changing something.

Dead, no? Just the same besides adding to the end combo? Most likely since that was most of them. Most are the dancer "shallow" Removing damage from closers is sad, but it stops people thinking they need it in combos. I imagine just not working up close could have done the same

I'm replaying from ARR. Started about a year or so after clearing Endwalker. The job design is absolutely terrible and samey. There is very little flavor or anything unique about the jobs besides the particle effects and animations. Utility isn't really something that exists, and while I noticed that in EW, it's MUCH more noticeable when I am doing more antiquated content in ARR that still used their old design philosophy. Side content, particularly that neglected by SE, at least still bears some limited vestiges of interesting design, but as it stands the game just feels like a much, much worse version of any old ARPG you could play. The obsession with 'balance' between jobs is absurd to me. Like, I actually don't get it. This is a game where the whole gimmick is the ability to switch jobs, yet the game is obsessed with homogenizing jobs so that they are all good at the exact same things. That's so crippling and limiting to the design of the rest of the game that it cannot be understated. It feels like GW2 at release where literally everyone is just a flavor of DPS, except healers are TERRIBLE to play because of that. Just godawful. There needs to more utility, more horizontal progression, and more flavor. Seeing stuff like Evasion buffs and or Parry buffs or Stuns or Crowd Control or Directional Attacks or Status Effects playing a role in fights beyond simple trash mobs is just sad as it is vestigial. I am replaying the game for the story, mostly, because it's a Final Fantasy game I like, but if it maintains the current design philosophy of everything being the same, everything being viable, everything being either borderline identical-to-each-other DPS or 'DPS but more boring' then I certainly won't continue playing after completing Endwalker again. Adding onto this, stats do not matter beyond crit and DH. They literally don't. Materia might as well not exist. Gear with stats beyond damage and crit, once again, may as well not exist. Another thing, adding on: People need to be more vocal and upset about it. Toxic positivity breeds complacency. It's very, very sad.

i loved the cross class system and RPG aspect of the game back then. now its not a rpg anymore, it resembles what ff16 butchered in their combat. (becoming an action game, straying away from RPG). the combat is just lack luster now in ff14, everything is streamlined and we still have idiots not knowing how to play the game. disappointing.

I was gonna go fem roe warrior but I think a fem roe full plate paladin would be sooo much cooler

Fantastic. I wish this existed when I started playing :)

I would add OGCD faster so ppl dont get to sleep doing 1-2-3 for 30 levels and they could see that the GCD is not slow when you have OGCD

I feel indifferent about drg.

I can't get past the Square Enix registration final boss to even play the game, I gave up trying. I wanted to play this game too...

RDM and MCH results should be swapped. :V

Well almost my entire job lineup got somewhat shafted

What do we think the new "easiest" class that isnt dead like summoner?

Before I started watching these videos, i thought the joke "Raiders could probably pilot a rocketship" or some variation of that was just a joke. But damn raiding is intense. I thought the game was just a visual novel and dressing up my catgirl.

I just finished all books on all weapons last week. So it us only 2x light grinding ahead as i did the material step at the same time as the books. Man, i am not looking forward to run Ifrit Ex over and over and over and over again 😢

I've also used my free time to help others clear too, I think i've helped sth around 27 ppl on their first ult clears since december ^^

I think one i heard most was deleted, the "great" earth barrier of white mage

I started to play at the end of shb, and i regret not playing more earlier, get the raids synced would be awesome, i hope square make events to make us do it synced again =D or "relaunch" the old expansions for those who started playing later as me

Bahamut glam…lol

Some people can't. A lot of people can't. Raiding requires skills that many people don't think of as skills, but they do impact people's ability to do stuff like this. Telling people not to be afraid and give it a try is one thing, but telling them "this takes no inherent skill, you just need to [inherent skill], [inherent skill], and [inherent skill]" is condescending and frustrating.

While Marx from the Copied Factory will always have a special place in my heart, I genuinely feel like Garuda Normal (yes, the Level 44 trial) was the first time I realised that I would *love* FFXIV. The second the sick as hell guitar riff kicked in, I knew the game was going to be special.

Blood Weapon and Plunge animations were the greatest losers of dark knight. rip my bloodspiller weaving and using the 1-2 to 50 gauge lll

Will male Scholars get a male fairy transformation??? I hope they do. I don’t like gender lock content.

Im “new” to the game coming from wow lookin for new people to play with :D

Its a shame that since shadowbringers Dark Knight keeps losing more and more, and that damn shadow pet is still around v.v Meanwhile GNB seems to get a knockoff Squall's Beat Fang from early Dissidia And Viper seems like a modified Zidane XD

Sch alive? Have u been reading lately? Ppl despise the character appearence change lmao

For the Mechs Snapshot section, there's a third type of common snapshot method, which is audio cue. Typically with audio cues, a specific sound (or boss dialogue) plays, and the snapshot occurs when the sound ends. Classic example is in Garuda Ex or UWU for Feather Rain, where there's a distinct scream letting you know to move quickly. Once the scream is over the mechanic is snapshot. Another example is actually the Pinax Lightning shown 54:30 ; the lightning snapshot is actually sound-based as opposed to "feely craft."

I'm still stuck on the implication that ffxiv is an IMVU dupe with a raid mini game lmao.

RDM has no change because it's perfect.

No because no ones job is dead.

Ehhh. These answers seem entirely too safe and are clearly aimed at a casual audience. Mobility barely comes up, for example.

Golly that last one reminds me of a tank I once had who refused to do his job and stood aside because we didn't bow down to him... we carried on, cleared mobs, nobody died, I, as a healer, didn't even sweat.

all those TPS clips are way funnier in retrospect

After watching this video I am woefully disappointed in EVERYTHING!!! This looks like the dev team was just sleeping for the last 2 years. For lv 100 skills and potentially our last set of skills, this seems lack luster and drab. Unless this is just a stopgap for a complete retooling of all game jobs and dungeons this is just pathetic and totally uninspiring. (Reference your kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jp1pdsiAtpiwoac.html video.)

As a Summoner main since Stormblood, im super disappointed at where summoner is now. Its all flashy and no depth, braindead with all conplexity stripped out at this point.

Removing all skill locks and letting people use all their skills in every dungeon would be another nice addition. It would facilitate better learning of jobs and rotations. You wouldn't constantly be dragged back into a previous edition of your character every time you hopped into a roulette. And yes, I absolutely mean let a Sage use Pneuma in Sastasha. Other MMOs do it just fine, there is no reason this one can't. Honestly, most of the excuses are just a cloak for shameful laziness and penny pinching.

You cleared it in just one attempt?! That's insane!!! Congratz on the great run! I've been attempting necromancer off and on for about a year, still no clear :( Got to the 190's 3 times and died at the 180's like 10 time's LOL

Did he complete the other? I can't find on the channel
