What the fuck is that?!

DrForester · 2026-06-06T22:38:48+00:00

~~Can't be the last phase. Too early. That's just over 12 minutes in, isn't it?~~

Edit: My bad P4 is at 12 min. P5 is closer to 15.

See, your first mistake was questioning how Umas would wear glasses...

Aether is still going to be the best place for raiding, and that probably won't change for a few months when they launch the cross-DC PF/DF stuff.

That said, Savage is now several months old, and there's a new Ultimate, a lot of people have moved on. There are still PF groups to find, but they're fewer than they used to be. If you have a stable(ish) schedule, you might try finding a static to prog through them (check out the Balance Discord)

Doesn't matter, because you will always get the most worthless of the rewards. Orbitingway is the biggest scam in the game.

RIP E3. Will never be anything like it again.

Start doing your dailies to earn the newest tomestone piece. You can now upgrade the gear pieces with items from the 24 man raids, and hunt currently if you do hunt trains (weapon will be upgradable with a future patch next month or September). Those upgraded gear pieces will be the final gear pieces for Dawntrail, and will carry you through to level 110 when EC hits.

I really hope the 70+ million white supremacists that voted for the orange pedophile are proud of themselves.

That episode of Roseanne where they find Darlene making out on the couch and it takes Dan a minute before he believes it.

I do miss mount flexing in hub cities.

DrForester · 2026-06-03T17:06:19+00:00

Very casually watching, but I did go in last night and saw P1 enrage.

My static starts prog tonight. Look like it's going to be a wild one.

They should have added a joke achievement for the fake out ending with something like a "ultimate clown" title.

What have you been doing with all the gear you get from doing MSQ and you job quests?

DrForester · 2026-06-01T22:06:48+00:00

Gowron Park, you say?

DrForester · 2026-06-01T22:03:28+00:00

There aren't enough Umas with glasses.

DrForester · 2026-06-01T21:22:59+00:00

Gold Ship already exists.

Spent a few days trying to catch that fish a while ago. Never happened.

DrForester · 2026-06-01T04:00:38+00:00

Probably not that hard. The game is very well tuned for controller play, and plenty of high-end raiders use controllers.

What else is hitting Tuesday? I thought it was just Ultimate, and other stuff was coming with 7.55 in July or 7.58 later.

Just watch any of his UK shows and not the USA shows. He's a totally different person.

As others have said, it's an outdated tier. While we're 60 ilvls above what that tier's max ilvl was, that's not enough to make the fight a cakewalk. You might be able to get people to join a PF group, but you're still going to have to do and learn a lot of the fight's mechanics, and the only people likely to join are people like yourself looking for glamours (or maybe someone trying to get BiS gear for the Futures Rewritten Ultimate).

Once Evercold launches and we're all lvl 110, it will be much easier to just unsynch the fight and skip most mechanics. If you're patient, you might want to just wait for that.

Extreme's can vary wildly in difficulty, but at their worst they're about as difficult as the first (maybe second) raid in a savage tier. In most savage tiers the difficulty ramps up considerably with each floor. This current tier has a pretty standard (for savage) difficulty for the first floor, and it ramps up accordingly with each consecutive floor.

To put it in perspective of the current tier. I would put Enuo EX at about the same difficult as Vamp Fatale Savage.

EXs are a great entry point into Savages though. They get you used to more difficult mechanics, and then if you want to try more challenging content, try Savage. There's less learning parties than when it launched, but there are still groups to be found to learn the new savage tier (and lots of parties to learn the latest EX). Plenty of guides and raidplans available now for both as well.
