@pasty@raru.re looks very nice
ha, that choker sure is glowing tho
clearly i need to grind more dungeons to get more clothes combinations going :tlapkaStare:
free summer clothes is cool but... im kinda not feeling it no matter what i combine it with
the smol catgirl in this event makes me wonder what it would be like to play as a smol catgirl
just imagine
lil tlapper gaming
yeah i love that fall guys course man it's a banger
girl in uldah: go to costa de sol to partake in the festival!
me in costa de sol: where is the festival
karen: you gotta go to limsa
? wow girl in uldah made me waste 416 gil for a worthless tp
nvm
aight which one of you
i was nervous about tanking this dungeon but I got 3 comms :blobcatMelt:
oh no i forgor to eat my walnut bread before what about my 3% bonus xp how will i recover
damn just queue into leveling roulette get ifrit do it in 2 minutes get loads of money seals and 2 commendations sure
sure thank u game :sagaNom:
there's this sidequest questline that involved hildibrand's dad and apparently it gives a special ring
well, one unwanted stop to the inn room and at least I look less random
in ffxiv it's even worse because if I think about it too hard I'll remember that everything is worthless because the game is old and MMO inflation and there's 3 more expansions that are newer and ?
I don't even MIND inventory management but if it involves a lot of items I only sometimes feel like doing it so I just like to have a higher time limit before "uh oh inventory full"
half the inventory management in ffxiv is like completely arbitrary and redundant like just fuck off no i will not buy a retainer but i will side glare you if you interrupt my play session with the mandatory inventory cleaning
and yes im still just standing over here. sprouting sproutily like a sprout. idk
every time a ffxiv post of mine gets boosted i discover like a whole new pocket dimension of ffxiv players on fedi
being a tank is being constantly on the verge of dying and being a dps is constantly third wheeling
took me a while to realize what the paladin outfit was missing
i didn't have a bandana at all! had to fix that
im paladin now...
just did a dungeon with a guy in a santa hat
santlapka real real confirmed?
felt like the healer had to heal me more often than the TANK im very smart and clever
the heal of shame
> playing monk is so much fun!
< so you are good at playing monk?
> :tlapkaCry: :blobcatNotLikeThisCry: ? no
pretty sure i only received this commendation for explaining the mechanics and NOT for failing to do the very same mechanic i explained
i met thancred's twin brother
succesfully tanked a dungeon
with two commendations
:tlapkaStare: ?
time for my first dungeon as a tank? ?
no more miqo'te loincloth, hopefully no more winking from strangers
LV1 MARMOTS BEWARE IM THE WARRIOR OF LIGHT SLAYER OF PRIMALS SAVIOR OF THE REAL
cannot believe this guy only started winking at me when i switched to the new class and it changed me into the miqo'te starter gear
wow, gaming
alright lets do this
what if you queued up for your roulette and t'lapka was the TANK?!?!?!?!? uh oh
you guys were right they start bullying alphinaud a lot in this expansion
i hope they never stop
alphinaud was fretting for me like a maid for his sweetheart... wow... thank you for telling me this estinien. would you care to share some more details
wow brilliant plan lets get taken in as prisoners! haha! because that is so much fun! happened to me before btw, funny story,
wow they actually asked me if i WANT to slay the primal this time
not sure about my options though
nice place btw
there's like ten more waiting for me in future expansions, oh god
fine. I'll press. shift plus backtick. i will beat you at your own game, game
I AM RUNNING OUT OF KEYS TO PRESS FFS I HAVE LONG FINGERS BUT NOT THAT LONG
STOP giving me new spells and abilities
my hotbars are full
I quite like the ironworks set for monk because it's like, an armor for someone who fights close up yes but still quite elegant
many of the other monk sets I've had were leaning far more towards looking like a brawler or a traditional martial artist and weren't nearly as refined
feels like the damage is really good when you get things right but when you don't you're just not doing anything and maybe also dying lol sorry to my healer at that last dungeon
man playing monk is FUN but also DIFFICULT
first new dungeon :blobcatMorning:
not these generic looking MSQ shirts about to give me better stats than my ARR endgame gear
this is so sad *redeems the "goddammit rumby" sound alert for 1000 channel points*
THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP
did iceheart just crystal me up by becaming friends with me
surprised she didnt just snatch it and run away lol
LMAO
(also lol I've totally not had people say the same about me :blobcatSweats: )
"it will be easy I'll just punch stuff" - this fool at level 1
bard: press 1 for normal shot. press 2 for fast shot.
monk: so there's three forms and in each form you can do one of three attacks that have a different special effect and some of those get a second special effect when you're at flank or rear and then you have a skill that lets you do any form's attack and a skill that always gives you directional bonus and each crit gives you a stack of chakra and
playing monk is fun when you actually do well at it
but when you press the wrong button or stop payign attention it's :blobcatNotLikeThis:
I GOT MY ALPHINAUD FUMO!
also lol behavior obedient :blobcat3cSmirk:
look at that ridiculous little tie
alphinaud outfit upgrade? yo?
see alphinaud i told u
karen: they dont sound british at all in the japanese dub
when people said the voice actors change will be jarring I prepared for the worst but honestly from what I've heard so far everyone has about the same energy so I don't really find it that jarring
unless I'm yet to meet someone who will be super different or something
im going to metal gear solid raubahn out of prison
YOU HAVENT SEEN THE GUY HE LOOKS EVIL AF YOUR FEARS WERE WELL-FOUNDED
alphinaud please you need to hasten your search for a replacement for the warrior of light job position
also I love how this cutscene forcibly removed my hat lol no wearing hats in the church huh?
i think i'd rather babysit the young son of house fortemps or something, on god, please i want no more of anything
so he's just gonna lay it on me huh
ah yes alone in a room with a ruler this has never gone wrong and especially not in this game
ah yes time to meet the archbishop who has been shown to have the bad guys around him in an earlier cutscene im sure this will go well ?
now haurchefant will give me a chocobo... how nice of him
hell yeah the tough alphinaud arc
OKAY AYMERIC I WILL TRIAL BY COMBAT THE HEAVEN'S WARD THIS TRULY WILL BE THEIR FINAL FANTASY
SER AYMERIC DID YOU JUST SAY THE THING
excuse me aymeric... did you just say he is a knight... of the heaven's ward....
the lv50+ class quests have had really promising starts so far!!! so fun!
me putting an important skill on a single button so that i can easily press it when needed vs me easily pressing that single button on accident wasting the skill and entering a 120 second cooldown
given that his catgirls turned out to be evil i must conclude that i have been too hasty in my assessment
me in heavensward: betrayed by everyone, became an immigrant, only 2 friends that aren't MIA,
widargelt in heavensward: 2 personal catgirl apprentices
also update to the thing were I said I don't know who the healer is with the color backgrounds
Karen explained to me that players' classes always have a set order that you can configure in character configuration
hey at least revenant's toll recognizes that in the story everyone betrayed me
i should queue for a dungeon with it maybe but uhh :worry:
haven't played monk in ages which is pretty cool because I forgot what buttons I was pressing so it let me re-do my hotbars painlessly
we r less left-heavy every day
the only really sad thing about ffxiv's accessibility is that DPS are red and healers are green and I can't really tell in my party where the coloring gets small
otherwise this game has been really stellar when it comes to sound cues, visual signaling and HUD customization (though you do need to get used to how the attack timing works, but thats just like a mechanic thing not an accessibility thing)
anyways now that we got rid of that loser us GIRLS can talk business
i have been with heurchefant's brother for like five seconds and i want heurchefant back. please. not this idiot
paired with the howling wind audio effects I am genuinely afraid of falling here
anyways um, I thought the intro questline was boring as hell but then it took me to a floating island and I love it
floating islands!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

second thread: https://raru.re/@pasty/108681337815882356
technically I still haven't beaten the ARR ultimates and the final coil of bahamut so I'm not completely through ARR but you know, good enough, assembling parties is hard and queues are long
@pasty@raru.re its veeery glowy
@puniko it wasn't glowing in the inn room, took me by surprise!
