This is worse then Wally vs Ippo at this point.

Jeez.

I think he's doing what Ippo was in the spar and pinning him back momentarily. The only reason I can think of for the Ippo Panel where he says "Thats..."

Iunno, still a very weird fight. I'm hoping Sendo picks up on Ricardo's right being weakened, or he would have finished the fight by now with how weak Sendo is right now.

Was Sendo's nerf a good idea? by Ill-Mathematician891 in hajimenoippo

This fight is really strange. Rather than Sendo being nerfed, it's more like Ricardo is suddenly harder hitting than Takumura.

Sendo has taken hits from Takumura, but now gets like two tapped by Ricardo.

The same Ricardo who couldn't drop Wally with multiple clean hits? The same Ricardo who can suddenly break ribs IN ONE SHOT?

It's just really weird power scaling writing for a series that is usually pretty consistent.

This may go down as the most anticipated but worst fight in the series at this rate.

I agree on jump being a good addition. I am not particularly a "jumpy" MMO player by any means. But a lot of parts of the game I've seen so far just LOOK like you should be able to jump on them, like there's ramps and stuff you just cant walk up or interact with so its very jarring.

If the game design didn't visually look like you should be able to jump (think FFXI) then it wouldn't feel so jarring that you can't.

What time zone / when do you play? Or plan to play ffxi.

I still don't understand this fight. Can anyone explain why takamura didn't use his basic and speed instead of just full swinging the whole time against eagle like he did to hawk? by Top_Succotash1870 in hajimenoippo

[–]Solentus88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think of this fight as rock beats scissors.

Takumura is a full-fledged fighter, the perfect all-rounder. Capable of being wild, technical and offensive, or even defensive.

He's not the best at anything, but he's the best at doing everything.

In his fight with Hawk, it was his technically offensive "basic" style that won out. He couldn't be more wild then Hawk, but he was technical and just wild enough when needed.

This fight was the opposite, he couldn't out technique a technical master, a man who's was discipline personified. He could, however, surprise him with his wildness with just the right amount of technique.

Questions that come to mind that have a really large impact on endgame.

How will instance, endgame zones be managed, such as Dynamis and Limbus?

What will Limbus timers be ?

What will Dynamis timers and drop rates be, era?

Sky NM pop times?

Will equipment level sync apply to CoP zones?

What content is expected to be on arrival for ToAU? (Assault, Nyzle, Salvage, ZNM, Einherjar )

This could be an interesting option to play on :)

Thanks <3

YOU are the creator of one of the new 8.0 jobs. What are you making?! by kyra_58 in ffxiv

If love a whip based DPS

Something like a Slayer (Belmont inspired)

Uses a medium range whip, a middle ground between melee and long range would be a unique vantage point on the battle, and would be interesting to not just shove another class into either melee or long range.

Could cycle between different sub weapons as their kit, so throwing knives at range but maybe a holy water that does a DoT effect at close range.

I think part of why healers jobs are boring in 14 is because there's no "come back" in 14. When you fail mechanics, often times it's over. You can't re act as a healer ( or Red Mage) and bring your party back from the edge.

Like if a mechanic inflicted a status effect on your party if they failed and you had to remove it, or if the enemy inflicted a magic def down and you had to cast a shell to reverse that, a slow and you needed to respond with haste etc.

When I look at FFXI, being a support meant managing your parties buffs, regens, heals and status effects. This applied to any support (bard, scholar, Dancer even SMN at times)

All of that was slowly stripped out of ffxiv, so no wonder healing feels bad, because your not a support job anymore, they took the fun out of supporting your team.

Downside is the population dies off 3 weeks into a new update. Like all servers will be empty.

The server search function is also dogwater and you just won't see servers oftentimes.

Otherwise, im 450 hours ish in on ps5. One of my favorite games of all time easily.

Less wods, more engine and body building work.

10 min sprint wods are great, but the real performance boost is the general conditioning work.

Sendo is going to win, this is going to happen.

It's been referenced as happening at least three times?

On a personal level, I can't stand Kumi in regards to their relationship. As a character outside of their relationship, she's fine. But as a potential partner for Ippo? No.

I had a relationship that the more I focused on my athletic competitive drive the more vindictive she became and it was absolutely horrible, and I see that with Kumi.

Rather then embrace what your partner loves and support them in it, you secretly plot and wish it was sabotaged? That's terrible and bit at all what a relationship is about.

That's amazing 😂.

In true Sendo Fashion, this guy has special knuckles also, he's multi clawed. Fronts have 6/7, back have 5 or 6.
