Tonberry pigs go home.

Too /xivg/. Try again.

Are they gonna make relic weapons better?

You seem upset, anything u wanna talk about?

yfw you're the actual canon master race

Elezen are pretty dope. Would play if Roe's weren't actual master race

>I just sit there because I'll never find DPS this good
>we still fail because the AST kept fucking up third phase

Is this what having a girl in the FC feels like?

Someone's girlfriend in my FC plays AST too and she's horrible. Does AST attract the shitters?

>catering to girls
>in any mmo ever

Gurls love tarot.

I'd wish they put battle versions of certain themes into the orchestrion list already.

...

...

I've found most shitters play WHM.

What are my options for gearing up after beating up the Pope? What will keep me in fighting shape for cool stuff later on?

Diadem is one of the worst pieces of content they've ever done and honestly needs to fuck right off. Eureka needs to be scrapped entirely.

How do you make fun content outside of raids when the combat is so shitty?

HOLY SHIT GUYS COULD IT BE?

Shitposting aside, what the fuck?
It was the ,most dead server in the most dead region
Yes, unlike WHM, AST and SCH are "brainless" healers, so lazy people prefer to play as them

>that one WHM who constantly has to push mobs away
>even in a group full of melees
>even if the mob needs to be positioned somewhere
Just had one on the guildhest with the turtle. That c@ whm named Angel Azure pushed it away three times. Third time when it was almost over the smoke. The turtke still got positioned correctly, thanks to our sprout GLD knowing what he was doing. Still, that's some maximum asshole behaviour.

Also, not that is is needed in that guildhest, but the WHM didn't use protec and barely healed. The first thing they did was cleric.

OH SHIT I'M GONNA [DATA REDACTED] TOMORROW
WHAT'S THE FASTEST WAY TO CAP MY SCRIPTURES BEFORE THAT HAPPENS

I like how the hunting hawk is still a rather stable 2mil+, but everything else Wind-up Leviathan crashed hard.

THAT DOESN'T ANSWER MY QUESTION MY MAN

*on Cerberus

>edition

This is triggering my memories of /xivg/

PLS DELET

Meant to reply to I need sleep, dude.

this will be your 280 weapon user for the night

Prove to me mentors weren't a mistake

Is the combat still slow? Are classes still a boring streamlined mess? If so, no need to play the game again until the basics of mmo is fixed.

>Emergency Mission Pops
>Strats are discussed
>Everyone says dont go in
>ONE MOTHER FUCKER GOES IN
>Makes it impossible to cl ear since everything is fucked up inside now
I hope Yoshi-P dies in his fucking sleep for not making a mandatory ready check for everyone inside the diadem to enter that room first.

This will be your SMN for the night.

>>Everyone says dont go in
>>ONE MOTHER FUCKER GOES IN
But you CAN go in. Just don't pull the stoneface.

Nigga after, the stoneface doesn't count as a fucking boss or an enemy.

pshhhh.. nothin personnel.. kid

Guys I'm bored of WAR

Meme cleave is the only fun thing

>tfw part of the number 1 hunt FC

Should have clarified that, chocobro.

yeah good luck actually getting one

FUCKING
MINDS

>number 1 hunt FC

>first Battle High as Paladin
Tight as heck. Shame I'm capped on Marks now and nothing to spend them on.

It sucks cause its just fates everywhere and going solo is terrible since people just wander about.

I would be more fun if it was more linear or maybe a horde mode where your fighting off waves of enemies and trying to cap points while defending others.

It's not fucking hard, but one person/handful of people can deliberately fuck over everyone else by going inside and making the center get overrun. Then the tanks are scrambling to get the aspected beasts apart while they're doing 50k on an auto attack.
I know there are people doing it on purpose too, fucking kill yourselves.

Top 5 reasons you're going to quit in Stormblood?

You can report those people for abuse

how is this even fucking fair??? fucking yoshi-piss hack

>Yoshi trying THIS hard to push his shitty failed experiment instead of just saying sorry diadem sucks

the stat distribution is randomized. please understand.

Fun fact, it has +3 wd over the relic, as well as 348 substats versus the relic's 284. For comparison, the creator book/relic are +4 wd over the midan book from a8s.

It's literally a raid tier ahead of the relic in terms of strength. You have zero chance of competing as a caster without it.

>competing

If only this were a competitive game lol

>competing
lmao speedautists

Doing Matron is comfy. I just afk until an emergency mission pops while playing other vidya.

Pls queue for Matron Diadem on Aether.

no dancer

>tfw shitter
>no intention to do anything other than whats required for main quest
>FC keeps dragging me to other things
Please no

Who gives a shit about BiS, as long as you hit accuracy cap for the content you're doing it's all that matters.

Although i'm hoping they just remove Accuracy in 4.0

I like elves but I can't ever make one that I want to use, also I really hate their run animation

less then 1% of people will even see these weapons drop much less own them. Unless they increase the occurrence of emergency mission as well as lower its difficulty, you will not have a chance at getting this unless you poopsock diadem

Diadem is trash.

Diadem was always trash. Diadem will always be trash. You can't fix it. Its a bad idea.

They should have spent that time on new Deep Dungeon or something completely new.

no blue mage

You don't like FATE's?

>RDM is just BLM with DRG's jump for "melee" attack and NIN's goad for "MP refresh"

>SAM is literally just MNK's forms but now with added slashing instead of blunt.

Tell me i'm wrong.

Can't you go in solo or something? I heard you can do that. You'll have no one to heal you in the emergency mission of course, but you can just stand outta harms way or something and plink whatever you can reach from the back.

...

>all the classes are just press buttons to win

WOW SHIT GAME 0/10

>Run Diadem 6 times
>90% of all loot I get is brass spoils
>Raid shows up on 6th run
>Lag gets so bad with the amount of players that my GCD's stop working
>2 minute wait for my game to catch up to everyone's achievements and loot showing up
>Garbage gear with bad stats
>Only one person in the entire 50+ alliance got a weapon for a job they don't play that had bad stats anyway

Square has no idea how this content is supposed to work.

I would if I had a gatherer at 179

>mfw I actually am

>Unless they increase the occurrence of emergency mission as well as lower its difficulty

Maybe on NA where people are still shit at cooperation. It's already regularly farmed on JP with no wipes.

>muh JP
Yeah I'm sure they're just rolling in 280 weapons user. Emergency Mission still barely happens

Level 60/70 version of Secure/Slaughter where...

Yoshi please. Please stop adding content then letting it rot.

I'm not sure if you can get a weapon that way.

You can still queue up for it. I queued up on my alt without a gatherer past 10 and just afk'd until an emergency mission popped.

As far as we know since the dev team hates telling us how shit works.

They should clearly tie the emergency mission to doing fates, like how you could tell you were going to get a Star after X amount of Tier V kills.

Return to Ivalice won't be about the Cataclysm, just a bunch of boss models ported from XII in a long ass corridor and donut steels with their stupid drama (probably lizards again).
Eureka will be based on current Diadem.
Battle rework will just open slots for new oGCD skills because PS4 limitations.
SB's updates will be just like HW's (3.1 included).
Ala Mhigo won't be a large scale Hamlet Defense, just a dungeon and a trial.
I will buy it anyway.

I guess I must be pretty lucky eh, I've seen it 3 outta 7 diadems so far.

>You can still queue up for it.
But I want to be useful

So here we have 3 different people saying that each of the healers are awful. As a WAR trying to pick up another class what the fuck do I even do if I wanna heal?

Speaking of return to Ivalice, how will you feel when they replace nu mou and bangaa with au ra?

Even better, more moogle quests.

moogles are replaced by eorzean moogles which will meme on you all day

>Return to Ivalice will have 12 bosses
>Cuchulainn already dead
>Replace it for Ascian Altima for the final boss fight
>Yoshi won't do this because it would be too much fun and actually make sense

You can be useful by doing the emergency missions properly.
The gathering missions are a complete joke and one person not being able to gather doesn't make it much slower.

I dont even have a combat job at 220

This.
It's almost impossible to play the level 50 ones and get their achievements. Not to mention, it's about time we put those 2 leftover PvP points to good use.

Matsuno is the one writing the story, though. It doesn't matter if we beat Cuchulainn because they can just make him come back like Diabolos and Ferdiad. But Belias is a primal and not a voidsent.

whoa there don't associate me with those speedkill memers, you're reading way too much into that verb

But yeah if ilvl doesn't matter, why dont you bank that relic and run around with last tier's weapons for fun. It's not like 4 weapon damage matters anyway.

>just a bunch of boss models ported from XII
Stopped reading there. The GAO desiggner is doing bosses. Nice try, baitman.

Rip. You're probably better off doing fury for 265 gear then.
I'm just trying to shill Matron because of how comfy and ez it is.

All the classes are boring. You're not missing out on anything.

How the hell did pvp go at 50 anyway? The dpsers have like no burst whatsoever and i want to neck myself when i get rouletted into secure or something.

dont worry im working on it. I'll be getting comfy with you soon

It had less shitters, longer queues.

Why the fuck is Odin trial so fucking hard.
I wasted 30 min on this shit

>jap retards
>cooperate
lmao sure

>no mechanics
>just dodge and hit him
>hard

>nu mou and bangaa
I bet this shit will be so lazily done that the whole thing will be based on post-Cataclysm Ivalice only, so no beast races, but will use XII models from Zodiac Age for enemies and bosses to save time/money.

>Why the fuck is Odin trial so fucking hard.
huh?
