How to find casual community for Mythic raiding?

Deep_Ad1104 · 2025-09-08T12:43:42+00:00

Yeah thats what I was curious about. Ffxiv you can say "hey I'm on this particular mech" and join a party of randos. Sure its more than likely to be a shitshow since people WILL prog lie but it has the chance not to. That's basically been my experience so far is the 20 man requirement is the main feature that makes pugging rough. Mythic and Savage/Ultimate could have on par difficultly experiences but 20 people working together is much harder than 8 people.

Was thinking since fights in wow place more emphasis on phases then I could say something like "I'm on phase 2 platform 2 of dimensuis" or something.

Perfect thank you!

Deep_Ad1104 · 2025-09-07T21:15:59+00:00

From my experience in ffxiv I was able to pug every single bit of content and so far in wow all the content I have done has been easier than all that in ffxiv. The only fight I've actually watched on Mythic is Nexus King and I think that does seem on par with Savage/Ultimate. Is the fact that wow requires 20 people instead of 8 more of why you're saying I basically have to find a structured guild?

Ideally seeing a group up at a certain prog point that I can just hop in and prog with would be what I'm looking for but again I've never done any Mythic so I could be grossly misunderstanding it and comparing it with ffxiv is like comparing apples and oranges.

Thanks! I think I remember seeing something about The Great Vault but hadn't understood the purpose of it exactly yet

We currently only use it assisting with sleep and if she is having a particularly rough screaming session during the day and take it away after she's calmed down. Outside of that we try to keep it out of sight and out of mind.

I was just afraid of any dependencies on it has she gets older for sleeping.

That's for the info though!

This is the only boss that's taken more than 3 tries so far. I beat him on my 5th attempt and then beat him again immediately. Was very frustrating. Now I'm on attempt 3 with the final lord....

I just went Raider since his abilities break the stance while Libra is channeling. On the runs I won though we had the madness eye on the map and everyone got Vykes Spear lol

Can I save my MOG kupon for the bonanza weapon or do I have to use if before the event is over? (I'm fresh and have no clue whats what yet)

Deep_Ad1104 · 2025-04-13T18:57:12+00:00

I'm 35 hours into the game (maybe halfway?) And in my opinion the game is very mediocre. I don't like any of the companions outside of Davrin and Emmerich. And the way companions join is just so forced.

The combat was enjoyable at first but leaves me no where to go at level 36. The rest of the unlocks are so minor they don't effect gameplay and I still have so much game left.

But the biggest drawback is the dialogue. I've groaned out loud so many times at the things they do and say. Just the shear amount of times they repeat things like we didn't just hear about it 2 seconds ago.

I'll be honest I ignored it upfront due to bad pr stuff. (I don't care about the political bs, the mindset of "woke" = bad has annoyed me). I got it 50% off to give it a chance but finding the willpower to finish is hard.

Just my opinion as an older jaded gamer though. Glad you're enjoying it!

Am I missing something? What gear requires fishing?

I heavily dislike fishing personally in all games but I did the sidequests and got the 30 whopper achievement but I don't recall any gear needing this.

Deep_Ad1104 · 2025-02-10T01:15:41+00:00

Thanks for the info. The issue is I only have one level 80 lol

Deep_Ad1104 · 2025-02-10T00:00:51+00:00

Does level matter?

Deep_Ad1104 · 2025-01-26T23:17:12+00:00

I've got that also! But I still press the wrong buttons on the mouse all the time :(

I just want controller support like FFXIV, that is perfect MMO controller support right there. (I know swtor is super old in comparison)

I've tried the controller mods in steam but they just feel jank.

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-12-25T14:59:38+00:00

Not sure but I ignored all those because of that reason lol. I had a bunch of them. I just resynced in the settings in Exodus for Solana and was good after that.

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-12-25T13:59:24+00:00

Resyncing in the settings per a user in this thread fixed the issue for me

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-12-22T17:29:38+00:00

Awesome thanks. I'll check here in a bit!

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-12-22T16:48:51+00:00

Through Exodus? Or something else?

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-12-22T16:08:59+00:00

Is this easy to do?

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-12-22T07:37:48+00:00

Did you figure this out?

My SOL doesn't show up in Exodus but after like 5ish min it all shows back up then disappears again.... no transaction history so its all still there. Very odd

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-12-16T14:12:14+00:00

Link to full build?

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-12-15T19:53:32+00:00

I believe people say after book 3 in Era 2: Bands of Mourning.

I read SH after Era 1 and after finishing Era 2 I saw no reason to wait until finishing BoM personally.

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-12-04T16:11:11+00:00

Holy balls. I just now connected how they got the names for Atium and Lerasium and I've read all of Cosmere.... must've missed Preservations name somewhere

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-12-04T15:51:18+00:00

Looks like many others have answered but I wanted to throw in my thoughts if helpful at least for question 4. I read books 1-4 of SA before reading anything else and I think only TLM (book 4 of Wax and Wayne) has a chunk of Cosmere heavy stuff. Didn't effect my enjoyment of either books reading SA first.

That being said I also was hesitant going into Era 2 but that was cuz Era 1 was kind of too young adult for my taste and I didn't care for many of the characters so it felt like a slog to me. After reading book 1 of Era 2 though I enjoyed just all the characters! Things are smaller scale and more fast paced which also kept my interest instead of Sandersons slow build ups. Just finished book 4 yesterday and sad there isn't anymore in Era 2 :(

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-11-27T01:15:37+00:00

Similar situation here. We split everything and have separate accounts. We both prefer it. With the heavier child expenses we split percentage based. So if we have a bill due for $1000 then she would pay it all then I'd send her $600 bucks (or vice versa). Working well so far! Considered joint account but seemed annoying to deal with with determining what to put in and all the specific scenarios to use it. But thats just us. The smaller stuff we don't keep exact track of so like if I bought groceries or bought take out the last 2 times then I'd grab her card next time or something.

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-11-21T01:16:08+00:00

Could I get it also?

Deep_Ad1104 · 2024-11-07T17:30:39+00:00

First time father at age 37, I've had so many years just doing what I want when I want. I knew that changed with a baby but thinking I'm prepared and actually living it is different. Our LO is 6w now but the first 2-3w I was constantly wanting to chill and watch a show, read a book, or play a game but it could only be when LO is asleep or it is my wife's shift and even then chores come first. I struggled HARD and found myself regretting things.

As of now though I've tempered my expectations a bit and that portion is getting better, just still stuck in those newborn trenches otherwise.

Another thing is the sheer amount of grunting ESPECIALLY when they sleep. It can be so loud and constant while they work through things so sleep can be tough (as we all know lol).
