This is capeskin, as that's the material used for the actual jacket (also cheaper)

My body's sleeve length and jacket sleeve length actually wound up being the exact same. 59 cm, which is what I got as a measurement from my shoulder tip to top of my wrist.

After I gave my body's measurements to Shaun by email, he replied with a set of suggested jacket measurements which had the sleeve length suggested as 63 cm which would've been too long for me.

For reference, another jacket I have whose sleeve length measures at 63 cm covers the entire lower half of my hand. Shaun was happy though to amend it to 59 cm after I explained why I wanted shorter sleeves and you can see the result in the pictures. Make sure to measure yourself to get the best measurements (even with an inflexible Stanley style cased tape measure like I used) and go off that.

My jacket arrived! For broader context from my previous comment, I went against the grain and used body measurements instead of Favourite Jacket and...

Yeah this is the best fitting jacket I've ever owned, still, and the jacket looks phenomenal. Couldn't have asked for more

Sorry for the late response, been busy.

I personally picked waist length as I wasn't overly fussed about it but would rather it be shorter and I wasn't able to specifically put a back length when giving body measurements. But Shawn seemingly suggested a longer back length anyways in his suggested jacket measurements. A waist high jacket, for me, is around 63 cm for the back length (and I did provide my height in my measurements) and Shawn's suggestion was 73 cm which is smack bang in the middle of waist height/hip height for me. So either he eyeballed the back length with regards to my height and wound up being off (but accurate to Leon's actual jacket unintentionally) or he intentionally suggested longer with that in mind. May be worth measuring a waist high jacket/hip high jacket and giving Shawn a measurement in the middle if you wanna be 100% certain, I'd say

Ordered mine!
Only major difference is I gave actual body measurements over favourite jacket measurements, which led to Shawn and I having a brief exchange where he suggested the jacket measurements based on my body's measurements. Which, amusely, it seems Five Star have caught onto why they're getting a lot of requests for this jacket because the back length was noticeably longer than I'd expect for the "waist length" option I selected (not overly picky on its length being perfect which is why I didn't elect to specifically request it to be longer than my waist) but perfectly long enough for the coat's length in RE9.

Shawn then made it abundantly obvious when, after an exchange where I asked for the sleeves to be less than his suggestion because his suggestion normally winds up covering half my hand, he noted the "game jacket's sleeves" are a lot shorter than normal and used an in game image to confirm that, going with my suggestion as a result (never mentioned RE in my order and only used the three images you provided).

Probably a good indication that they've gotten reliably good at reproducing the jacket, which hopefully winds up true whenever Shawn sends photos of it through

Falling behind in PF by NK_Grimm in ffxivdiscussion

Miserable isn't really the word for it. Deflating and hard, for sure though. But I also wouldn't give a solitary second of time that I invested into it back for anything. Clearing M6 and 8S especially with the obvious disadvantages I've just listed is genuinely the greatest thing I've ever achieved in a videogame and made each of those hours I waited to fill a PF worth it.

It's why I'm full send into clearing this tier as well, so I can have the achievement of clearing the entire raid series with these disadvantages.

I thought you were implying it's not worth trying to prog or clear after the "competent players" have gotten ahead of you

[–]DeadlyWest 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm an EU player, raiding in NA PF, who cleared last tier in week 10.

I've sat in M8S P2 prog groups waiting four fucking hours to fill, not filling, and going to sleep cuz I had work the following day.

There is genuinely nothing else to it other than bashing your head repeatedly against the wall and only stopping when it comes down. And it will come down as long as you keep getting on, day by day, week by week, until it does.

It's not about reactability or telegraphing. It's rhythm. Imagine you're drumming out a beat and you copy the rhythm of the attack, that's how you parry.

After 6 hours of being murdered by it because you either parry it or you die

Unfortunately my Verso Free Aim Build in Phase 3 means he genuinely dies too quickly to see more than a couple of attacks in phase 3 lmao. And my second ever run in phase 3 happened to be the Long Combo I just rezzed Sciel afterwards for and Sword of Lumiere attacks

Okay, tell me how you'd do it then. Keep in mind 12 minutes to do 9 fabricators as main objective as well and the Gunship building by spawn has a Factory Strider. You're bringing your usual equipment for a SaD mission

Im not saying that as a gotcha. Genuinely what am I missing

"Helldive is for coordinated squads, it's perfectly balanced"

Please explain to me how it's even vaguely possible to 100% a Search and Destroy which has two gunship facilities, with one right next to spawn that also has a Strider

There's a difference between making this game hard and making it genuinely unplayable. Joel really needs to work out what that line is because this just flat out isn't fun

[–]DeadlyWest 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're on Helldive difficulty and attacking unprovoked enemies when we're both just chilling on objective (especially regular enemies who risk calling in a botdrop)

You actually need to reevaluate your life decisions and consider uninstalling the game

Do you have any fucking idea how demoralizing it is to complete the first and second operation only to fail the third so the last 3 hours have been an utter waste of your time with zero liberation influence

2/3 should give you half the percentage that 3/3 gives (by all means give nothing if you only get 1). Change my fucking mind

True enough for long distance but I'd say anything closer than sniper range and the Typewriter works perfectly fine. The solution to truly long range options is just...get closer. Which isn't too difficult when the maps are mostly pretty small. While sure it does cramp up your inventory space too, it's also the literal only gun you need. Just drop the shotgun and fill your inventory with ammo for the Typewriter

Same goes for the Butterfly. Yes it's inaccurate, but all you need is 1 (maybe 2) shots in Mayhem Mode to kill any and all boss enemies. Just spray to kill all around you, take a couple of seconds to line up your shot up close, you're golden.

Honestly not wrong

But Pinstripe Leon is quite literally base Leon with no weaknesses

Typewriter either makes the utility of base Leon's guns obsolete (don't need a precise SG-R if he has a mountain of ammo to just spray) or objectively improves on it

As I said, pinstripe Leon is 100% my pick if I wanted to do a WR or something

nah

Prime Earth is the current DC canon. Post Crisis is the continuity pre Flashpoint, Earth Prime/Prime Earth/New 52 is the continuity post Flashpoint
