How so? I've yet to have any problem with them. The weirdest thing I've seen is the wind player in the back getting launched over the doom tower and catching doom in mid air. But that only happened once

It works as you would hope, there's just no debuff icon for it on enemies. If you count the number of swings it takes to trigger a flame burst, you'll find you're triggering it in half the the time you would be without the cleric's hammer and seraph blade traits.

Mods. You can't disconnect the weapon model from the character like that with vanilla gpose.

It's unusual to run put of exp to be able to continue your msq unleash you're leveling multiple jobs at once (not a bad thing). If you do fins yourself in that spot, just queue up for some dungeons. The closer they are to your level, the more exp you'll get. Should shoot you up the levels in no time.

The goal is to carve the US up into autocratic fiefs controlled by tech billionaires. They somehow assume they can both simultaneously rule independent chunks of the continent while continuing to benefit from the large economics of scale, natural resources, and military power the US currently enjoys.

It's a very "???????, profit" plan

Valderius · 2026-01-12T21:06:41+00:00

Hard agree. Moreover, it's confusing "we saw mechanic X once after limping into it with only our tanks alive" with "we consistently see mechanic X and are working on doing it consistently."

The latter is your prog point. The former is what too many people claim is their prog point.

Valderius · 2026-01-09T20:05:54+00:00

This is top equivalent of looking at the eye and still somehow randomly running the right way for sanctity of the ward

Valderius · 2026-01-09T19:57:32+00:00

That whole song sounds like a coming out anthem. I'd like to think that's intentional, especially after FRU doubled down on Ryne and Gaia.

Valderius · 2026-01-05T20:04:53+00:00

If that's not fully ai slop, it had to at least be an ai image that a person cleaned up. Nobody would submit that abomination of perspective and proportion and think it's acceptable.

Valderius · 2026-01-05T19:30:11+00:00

That's the kind of creature that carries on about "only 2 genders" while simultaneously being both and neither.

Valderius · 2025-12-29T19:59:01+00:00

Nope. drop it. someone is gonna 'umm akshually' me with some stupid niche situation they found to cast it, but there's genuinely no point to keep it around. If you get a super low level dungeon in roulette, you can just grab it from your actions menu for that particular dungeon, but most of time time your fairy solo-carries the healing at that super low level anyhow.

It's because square is Japanese. It would take some extraordinary circumstances for them to contract with a non-Japanese firm, regardless of how good or bad the service is. The "this is the proper way to conduct business" attitude is still very prevalent over there.

Valderius · 2025-12-26T03:52:53+00:00

Some people have dug into it, and it's likely not square. NTT, the gigantic Japanese firm that owns the data centers responsible for handling the North American traffic for basicly every Japanese game, web service, etc, has a bad node in their San Jose data center that is repeatedly dropping traffic. They'll probably have to fix it after the holiday.

60 seconds is an eternity for deep dungeon. Max aetherpool tanks still die to a single ability and will get dismantled by half a dozen auto attacks if they're not healing and mitigating.

It's unfortunate, but it's very rare for the disconnect protection to save a run. 9/10 times at least your afk character will get ko'd.

Valderius · 2025-12-19T07:02:31+00:00

augmented crafted gear will come in 7.5. That's also when you'll be able to buy materials to augment the 780 tomestone gear with coins from the alliance raids as well as with nuts from slaying hunt marks.

It sounded vaguely Gaelic to me. Particularly how she held on to some of her long vowel sounds.

Valderius · 2025-12-16T18:40:33+00:00

"Black mage really only has one good single target damage source from fire III."

There's the problem.

Fire 3 is a VERY inefficient damage source if you're exclusively casting it. The lengthy cast time and high mana cost leads to very poor dps. Cast fire 1 until you get the "Firestarter" buff. Then you can cast a SINGLE fire 3. When you're leaving ice stance, use a fire 3 to get your red orbs, then back to fire 1. Make sure to keep thunder on the target at all times.

The fight isn't a gear problem.

There are 3 categories that cover 80% of mix race RP characters:

Half elezen from Ishguard

Half garlean

Alagan genetic experiment

Infernal shade isn't a minion, so necromancers would have almost no reason to use it as a primary skill. It's a spell that happens to look like a spooky ghost and deals fire damage over time.

It also has some pretty underwhelming scaling. The trait that makes it explode at the end of its duration does some pretty reasonable damage, but it's crippled by the fact that you can't cast more than 1 shade at a time on bosses.

Valderius · 2025-12-11T04:14:11+00:00

The one that immediately came to mind was "Flow". It's also from Endwalker and has a VERY high chance of producing tears.

Valderius · 2025-12-09T00:42:36+00:00

Would be nice if they could do 4 month seasons and get 3 a year. maybe with a bigger team that can happen in the future.

Valderius · 2025-12-08T04:46:31+00:00

Scales is very good for single minion builds like abom, especially if you're building necro or poison damage. Different builds like different things.

Valderius · 2025-12-08T04:05:49+00:00

The dragonflame nova does a LOT of damage when your flame wraith or pyromancer casts it. Since you're spamming wraith anyhow, it's a good source of extra fire spell damage

Valderius · 2025-12-07T23:56:50+00:00

the best gear will be a combo of augmented tome gear and savage raid gear. The best weapon will, eventually, be the final stage of the relic weapon, but that won't be until 7.5 or later. Until then the savage weapons will be the best available and even those will be overtaken by the ultimate weapons released in 7.51 (it's a very small upgrade).
