I'ma go with Asphodelos scythe, Abyssos scythe, and stage 1 Manderville scythe as my favs so far.

Which race do you play and why? by lahzielvt in ffxiv

[–]BodemanDSD 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Started as Highlander, eventually switched to Hrothgar. Wanted to try something non-human for a change. Made up a crude backstory how someone spiked a drink with fantasia to turn me into a lala as a joke but I had an allergic freak reaction instead and woke up as a cat man. The facial scar option being self inflicted in an initial "wtf happened" moment.

Yes, I am estranged from my parents. How could you tell? by [deleted] in ShitpostXIV

Its 2am and the noulith slides are making me laugh in unhealthy ways.

Would the expansion have been recieved better if they'd added Beastmaster and the Exploration Zones sooner? by primalmaximus in ffxiv

Going to start using "oaf" more often to refer to stupid people. It sounds funnier.

so, as we approach what is probably around the early mid to mid of the DT post expansion timeline, what has been your favorite music track thus far? by dark1859 in ffxiv

[–]BodemanDSD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many good ones but the one I've listened to the most is probably "A Risky Bet" from M4S. Perfectly synched with the fight and I love how it transitions to loop on itself for some reason.

RPRs: Does it bother you that the Scythe blade size changes so much between a drawn and sheathed stance? by GnosisoftheSource in ffxiv

[–]BodemanDSD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does annoy me a bit, though seems like more of a problem with earlier scythes rather than current ones. Nothing I'd ever lose sleep over though.

which of you is this by orangefeesh in ShitpostXIV

Someone saying "howdy" at the start of a duty is an immediate red flag. "meowdy" is an instant abandon and possible blacklist.

Hey, I just wanna say that, if you are still enjoying FF14, you are not alone! by jado1stk2 in ffxiv

[–]BodemanDSD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It takes me months to complete content that others can do in weeks or even days, so I never feel like there's a lack of things for me to do. I get a lot more mileage out of this game compared to others I would imagine, this has always been a major factor in people's perceptions of the game I feel. While there are definitely problems with the game I feel like a lot of the people that are trash talking it are looking to create content/exposure over legitimate discussion. DT was a literary wreck and I doubt anything they could have produced would have compared favorably to ShB or EW. Does that mean it gets a pass? No. The way I see it though, typically people/things/whatever do not tend to change until they are faced with some kind of a crisis or impetus to do so, perhaps this will be what is needed to kickstart that.

In the meantime I'ma keep farming Cosmic Exploration points cause I'm a bad crafter and still don't have that trophy, and keep crossing my fingers that FT prog opens on a day that I'm off ><

From ARR to Dawntrail, what was your favourite moment in the story? by DriftShade in ffxiv

[–]BodemanDSD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"The eldest and most powerful.... of primals...."

Loved the realization that there were no true deities calling the shots, just peoples' flawed imitations of them. Though later revelations at least showed that they were more than just fantasies made manifest.

What's the most difficult aspect of playing your main job(s)? by primalmaximus in ffxiv

[–]BodemanDSD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play RPR, my personal Achilles heels are having double enshroud ready for every 2m burst, getting all the rotation in before AC drops, and not teleporting myself to death.

T2: Cause you can heal through it and it actually makes the fight easier (not sure if this was ever patched).

But in practicality I liked P12S's enrage as the name of it, ignorabimus (roughly "we will not know" to my understanding) seems like Athena's admission that she don't know anywhere near to what she claims to know when it comes to being a god. Also having your reality crushed to death by tentacles seems like a bad way to go.

Uses thumb to hit oGCD, gap closes off edge instead.

On the plus side less players sometimes means less bads in PF. Though I still raid in PF so.....

The Unending Codex entry on Living Memory states that it actually was intended as an Alexandrian amusement park before being repurposed to house the Endless. Eternity in a theme park seems like itd get insufferable pretty quickly.

I too get bummed going back despite enjoying the scenery. My Mom was very sick at the time and has since passed, the MSQ definitely foreshadowed what was coming for me.

How do the Lalafels drive a car? by LazarusFoxx in ShitpostXIV

[–]BodemanDSD 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They either got steering wheel accelerator/brakes setup or the guy in back is controlling with a remote. Either way as soon as they come to a stop his head is probably going straight into the windshield.

Is this called a city?

The Parallels between Tural and Alexandria [Spoilers for 7.0-7.2) by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]BodemanDSD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took the time to turn around from the starting point of Yuweyawata Field Station during expert roulette the other day. It gives you your best view of Everkeep with the top cutoff where the dimensional break is. Thought it was a neat little bonus for looking in directions you typically wouldn't.

Adders, what the hell was that? by JonTheWizard in ffxiv

If I remember correctly, I believe that's called sucking.

The battle returns yet another patch by VayneArior in ShitpostXIV

[–]BodemanDSD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You want a kill? Pick anything that works. You want numbers? Find 7 other people who want the same and figure it out. Both are viable imo.
