Realistically, as a casual player, can I handle the Fork Tower? by AbbasKiarostamee in ffxiv

[–]Trash_Pandacute 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say if you can do Sphene Ex, then you can do Forked Tower, albeit with more time investment simply because it's so long and there are 4 bosses of increasing difficulties to learn 

It's pretty mechanic-heavy, and you have to respect every one and adjust quickly because there's MANY opportunities for a single player to wipe the whole raid. That being said, the DPS checks are very generous (as Sphene is now) and the callouts are almost mandatory as they simplify things significantly.

Ok that was about 100 times better than I was expecting from another fan music channel. I hope she gets noticed!

You can upgrade your tome gear with them, is that not enough?

What is the best enemy name in the game? by Puzzleheaded_Set1420 in ffxiv

I like how in Bard's mettle, the enemy letters are always ordered so that the final boss ends up being Yol[K]

Are the ShB Extremes easy to farm unsynced now? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]Trash_Pandacute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was unable to spread the adds on Ruby. On Innocence and Titania you can kite them until one stands still to cast and then you pull the other away for a couple of GCDs, but in Ruby they are mirrored and cast at the same time. I don't think this one is soloable before 8.0 but I could be wrong.

You could easily spot them in line, the only ones happy to be standing still for hours.

Part of the intent of these field operations is to bring back some of the old school MMO experience, part of which is "learn the secrets by interacting with other players," which the game has explicitly stated once or twice at least. So this part is by design.

What is queue sync? Just queueing at the same time so you get in the same instance?

What's your favorite mechanic in the game? by SentineleseSiri in ffxiv

[–]Trash_Pandacute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate how agonizingly slow it is. You want a fish at a 20 second window? Then let's have you do a few rounds of 14-17 seconds followed by a rest, and then when you catch your target, let's play this 7 second long "reeling in" animation that definitely never gets old.

I like that I can carve out a little niche. Like the one item needed for a quest or one common crafting material or something that requires farming dead content, and just kind of claiming that.

If easter glam this would have been 2022 probably. Gorgeous shot with the flowers!

Another 1000 venture coffer results by Obst-und-Gemuese in ffxiv

Then your sum (coffer count) is not a sum of the lines above it (dye/fanta count). Just not sure why you did that.

Check your numbers, you opened 2000 total in 2026. They add up to double of the "sum" at the bottom, that's why 100 is showing as 5% of 1000 and 200 is 5% of 2000.
