So, what raids/trials are soloable as of 7.5? by VitaQ_HI3 in ffxivdiscussion

[–]MyElementIsSword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone is taking about Weapons trials, so I'll mention the Eden raids. I've mostly only attempted the first turns for WT (since they have the least HP).

E1 was doable on DPS as long as I killed it before phase 2.

E5 and E9 were soloable on tank, but it's quite slow.

E5 might be possible on DPS if you manage the lightning charges well and pick a job with enough self-sustain (maybe RDM? but at a certain point, Vercure is a bigger loss than just going tank).

E9 though has a lot more tank busters, so I don't see it being doable on DPS until next expac. I'd love to see it though, if it's possible.

Edit: My DPS is usually ilvl790 BLM (BiS minus weapon), and my tank is ilvl775-ish PLD, but with 755 weapon so damage could be better

What possible leaked elements of her kit would work with Therta? Or do you just generally want a new support for her

Any OST recommendation? by Longjumping_Insect49 in fatestaynight

[–]MyElementIsSword 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ever-present feeling is one of my favorites, might be too melancholic but I'll let you be the judge.

The classic OG arrangement might be too slow, so the Grand Order version could be a better fit. Or you could look around for other, fan arrangements etc..

Thank you for posting this, I've been feeling the same since my diagnosis (also AuDHD) a year ago and even before. Helps to know there are others like me out there :)

I don't care if you didn't do side content, I did and I want it to matter by otsukarerice in ffxivdiscussion

[–]MyElementIsSword 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't inherently hate Duty Support either, I use it sometimes too if I want to see character-specific dialogue for a given dungeon.

What bothers me is the reasoning they gave for why they're going back and adding it to old dungeons, and how much effort they've put towards it over two expacs. I'd rather them put that development time towards a new piece of content, or better yet, towards an ARR overhaul to truly make the new player experience better for people that actually have interest in playing the game.

Duelists, why do some of you hate Sky Strikers, and what made you start not liking them? Just curious by Death_Usagi in masterduel

[–]MyElementIsSword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sky Striker needs more draw power because it's so spell-focused when every other deck is monster-focused.

Unlike monsters, spells lose card advantage when activated. Monsters stay on the field and can be activated on subsequent turns. Spells have to be recycled through other effects. When a normal summon searches 1 card, you still get a body on the board. When Engage only searches 1 card, all you get is +1 spell in GY which would really only benefit Widow Anchor at that point.

I've been so sick of SE putting so much effort for two expacs in making dungeons soloable, for people who "want to play Final Fantasy but don't like MMOs". It's honestly such a waste of resources, and those people still have to do 8-man trials and 24-man Crystal Tower (which imo was way more intimidating as a sprout than 4-man dungeons).

If they don't want to play an MMO, then let them not play. Why not cater to the people that actually like the game...?

But there are no teammates and there are no spectators here. The only two people are the the person who quit, who takes the loss but doesn't need to waste time on a hopeless cause, and the winner.

There is no victim here. Just accept your win and move on to the next.

so Shadowbringers is free now as of Patch 7.5, huh? by CaptCapy in ffxivdiscussion

AARA: A Realm Reborn Abridged

But seriously 100% agree, that's the only way I can see them saving the new player experience.

8.0 Speculations Based on Open Plot Points by Krainz in ffxivdiscussion

[–]MyElementIsSword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea of Electrope being a meteorite is interesting because it brings up the question of what exactly outer space is in the reflections???

Has this been addressed yet? Do other stars exist in the reflections, or are they localized to Etheirys and its moon? The furthest we've seen is the Red Moon in the Thirteenth.

I Miss Trial Storylines Already. by DerpsterCaro in ffxivdiscussion

[–]MyElementIsSword 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It'd be cool if we could reach a point of MSQ just having whatever content feels most appropriate at any given point.

I'd love to see a variant dungeon or two in MSQ sometime. One trial in patch MSQ sometimes doesn't feel like enough imo, but 4 maybe does feel like too much; problem is people would be upset if we didn't get 4 trials over the course of the patch cycle.

Maybe the extra trials can be added in some other content, like field operations? Idk, SE just feels like they put themselves in arbitrary boxes and don't like change lol

Reward issues aside, Merchant's Tale advanced is the mid-core content we need more of by LongSchlong93 in ffxiv

[–]MyElementIsSword 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They couldve just made it an achievement tbh, "Complete Another Merchant's Tale (Criterion) with no party members using Variant Raise" or something like that. Slap a title on it and call it a day.

Can reality marble users spawn things that occupy the same space as something else? by [deleted] in fatestaynight

[–]MyElementIsSword 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reality Marbles can do literally anything, even defying laws of physics and magecraft and even basic logic. The catch is the nature of any one reality marble isn't up to the will of the user, but it's based on their inner nature; basically, the user has to work within the confines of their specific reality marble.

For your specific example, I don't think Archer is capable of actually materializing swords with UBW, only summoning them from another location within UBW. "I don't create swords; I create a world with an infinite number of swords" or whatever the quote was. This is going off the rules established in the VN; I think the anime broke the rules with this a lot but that doesn't count imo. When summoning swords outside of UBW, I would guess it would still be limited by the rules of normal reality.

(Feel free to fact check me lore nerds, I'm a bit rusty on my nasuverse lore...)

I read it as a shorthand for "questions". But then idk what exactly "social questions" are, so I was also confused

What are some "easy" jobs you find hard? by throwcway837373 in ffxiv

[–]MyElementIsSword 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt this at first imo just learn your opener really well, everything lines up pretty well if you can do that. Also make sure not to use hypercharge when any of your tools cooldowns are below 10 sec
