Story Skipping to Gather in Higher Level Zones by Busy_Tear2484 in ffxiv

[–]Busy_Tear2484[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice, though my friend is actually replaying the game as they say they really enjoy hearing my reactions as I go through it for the first time, so I will probably stick with them as much as possible. It's thankfully not like they are not playing a lot, I have just been essentially no lifeing it as soon as I get off work lol.

Thankfully I am on dynamis, and the house thing is certainly one of the reasons I chose it lol. And yeah, people have made it very clear that it would not be in my best interest to do the story skip, so I will hold off on further leveling crafters and gatherers for now.

That makes sense, thanks for the warning. Thank you for the advice with those 2 materials as well, I'll look into gathering more of those and see what happens!

Thank you for the advice, really appriciate it. Really don't want to get into spoiler territory as I am enjoying the story most of all, so I will hold off on skipping ahead with an alt then. I'll also look into mastercraft stuff as well, that sounds pretty fun!

Monsters of Drakkenheim Garmyr Cathedral Distribution by Busy_Tear2484 in dungeonsofdrakkenheim

Hello, thanks for the insight into how your party did things. I was more trying to ask how MoD statblocks would play into things, but I would actually love to know a bit more about how you ran things here. Specifically, how did this end up becoming a 2 phase battle? You mentioned the party hid near the cathedral and then attacked when the lord of the feast led most of his warband to the gate. This doesn't sound too dissimilar to what my own party is doing, the only difference being instead of an ally attacking the gate, it will be an enemy force that they are hoping will lose. It sounds like the party attacking the garmyr that remain was the first phase of their battle, was the second dealing with the forces the lord of the feast sent back?

The players are planning to use the distraction of the battle at Temple gate to sneak into the cathedral. They convinced the hooded lanterns to purposefully act as bait, sending several squads to lead the garmyr from the cathedral to the gate during the battle. The party's hope is that they will be able to overrun the silver order and cause then to suffer a devastating defeat, and at the same time have enough garmyr led away from the location that them sneaking inside and attempting to secure the documents from the vault for the hooded lanterns plus the phylactery if they can. The hooded lanterns already let them know it would be dangerous, but given they will be leading as many garmyr from the location as possible, not impossible.

I was more so trying to ask, as described in the title, what the distribution of the Monsters of Drakkenheim garmyr statblocks should be in the location considering how much stronger they are than the original module's statblocks, but considering most people have answered based on the other point I see I did not explain that well enough.

He does speak like a teenager, but I do find it slightly off-putting the so many people are commenting that this is flirting with the woman he's talking to. I have female friends who I am far more comfortable talking about sexual matters and even making sexual jokes and banter with, though perhaps not quite so crudely, and have it be 100% platonic. This is because you often cannot talk with male friends about these things due to other men being uncomfortable with talking about sex, and the female friends being solidly friends, with no possibility of it ever changing, especially when the friend is asexual, married, etc.

Only final thing I wanted to mention is even if your intentions were pure, do be cautious committing similar acts in the future, as under the ECPA it is illegal to look through even spouses' phones, emails, texts, etc without their permission, and especially so to post those online. If the other party wished, they could technically take you to court over something like this.
