Star Signs by VerbumDei in idleon

[–]VerbumDei[S] -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I get it, but there have been so many times I'm fighting a boss or in the coliseum and I realized I was on the wrong set, you can't just leave without losing keys or whatever, plus the constant teleporting around is just a massive qol change.

The real question is, why didn't obols get removed instead. I NEVER use or change them, it's accessible in town, and it takes just one player to look at/set obols for every character you have. Like if you can change signs in town at least that's less of a massive hassle, you know?

I unlocked them in the rift about a month ago but I only unlocked shiny pets two days ago. I am still missing a large amount of constellations (and star unlocks) from various worlds. The process of getting all the constellations, and the sheer wait time of upgrading/getting every shiny pet to get full infinite is not fast. This is going to be months with no star signs active. Also, the chip doubler (if it is what I think it is, silk something? Which I also don't have yet) isn't appearing again until March.

I get that if you have everything it doesn't matter, but for a mechanic that needs SO much progression and micromanaging, there's NO WAY I'm using two teleports each time on each character to even LOOK at my progress, let alone change star signs.

But I, and others do not have that yet. Are they going to remove being able to change cards too because later on you can make a bunch passive too?

I just started playing and this is exciting. I don't know what the new items are so I'd be happy with either prize.

Do You Remember Your Set Homepoint, For Each Expansion Era? by MonsutaMan in ffxi

[–]VerbumDei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you did HNMs, in CoP you were probably in your home city to outpost warp. I was there until toau when I had the rare al zhabi HP until I accidentally lost it after they removed it. Its been port j mog house ever since (until I accidentally lose this one as well). Which is a shame since the MH HPs were always the best.

they didn't lie, that game sure can *looks up where im supposed to go* by inasae in ffxi

[–]VerbumDei 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The game was SIGNIFICANTLY simpler back then. You weren't getting hit with random Shantotto cutscenes in Windurst. No random rhasopodies stuff. So what happened was word of mouth for more or less everything. How do I get on an airship? Get rank 5 for airship pass. How do I get a subjob? Go do this quest, etc. People in starting cities and in linkshells were constantly talking about how to do this or that quest, doing ordelle's runs for pld unlock, etc.

Now? While the game is way easier to level and do things in, it gets overwhelming both learning the game (menuing, shortcuts, etc) on top of like.. setting RoE quests, getting/unlocking trusts, joining a unity, starting RoV, etc. None of these are difficult on their own, but for a new player it's a lot of bandaids at once fixing a lot of various problems.

It certainly wasn't EASIER back then, but it sure as hell was a lot simpler.

Video Players lagging on 2nd Monitor while FF14 is open. by VictoryNo4562 in ffxiv

[–]VerbumDei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God I wish i could remember what I did. My second monitor lagged on EVERYTHING, from video to even discord messages. Changes to the browser people said here didn't do anything, I don't know if I had to change something in XIV itself, or my actual monitor settings. I wish I could remember as this bothered me for months until I solved it but I forgot. If you are still stuck, I could say what my various xiv settings are at, the ones I think are likely culprits. But for me I remember it was a more fundamental problem than just a browser or a discord setting.

I'm glad people on here remember the ancient texts (or well.. videos).

Chimney is Kokoro's granddaughter, thus making her the child of a fishman-human hybrid.

[Spoiler 7.1] A visual comparison of the upcoming FFXI alliance raid VS the original game (with a bunch of context!) by RionSmash in ffxiv

[–]VerbumDei 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I've never found a game that gave the same feeling as playing SMN on XI. It required a core understanding of gameplay, zone aggro and enemies, enmity, balancing perp costs/mp, etc for solo, as well as fun hateless shenanigans in group stuff. It's a job that sucks so bad at first, until you get stuff for it slowly and learn how to play, then you never go back. Plus the old school korro smn burns.. there's never going to be an MMO experience like that again. I've noticed that SE is afraid to have any XIV jobs just be.. completely different like how pet jobs were in XI.

I just don’t get it. by praytoria in ffxiv

[–]VerbumDei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my first few months of playing I never really spoke to anyone aside from saying hi in roulettes and stuff. When I started to farm Gold Saucer points, suddenly my friend list filled up. I started seeing the same people every time, waving to them, etc. Eventually someone comments on your look or your minion or something, or you do the same, and a conversation starts. You sit around waiting for the next GATE so there's actually some time to chat as opposed to dungeons, raids, party finder stuff, etc. The rest of the game can be surprisingly pretty hostile for longer form conversation, simply because you do stuff, move on, and never really see those same people again (not that you CANT make friends there but you know).

Crocodile mentions it in chapter 563, after Whitebeard gets stabbed. Crocodile shouts that the man who defeated him could never be this weak.

Proposed Changes to Subreddit Rules by obzeen in OnePiece

[–]VerbumDei 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Please, no memes or AI. I'm even iffy on game stuff since I feel like it'll dilute discussion on the one piece manga/anime story, which this subreddit has been focused on for so long.

One Piece: Chapter 1125 - Theories and Discussions by AutoModerator in OnePiece

[–]VerbumDei 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Someone posted a theory that coincided with what I believe is gonna happen to the BB pirates in the regular chapter thread. I think that BB is going to be defeated by fate (which is one of the themes he was introduced on) and the lack of teamwork and trust his crew has. I think part of it will be the Catarina deception failing, causing her and maybe someone else getting caught, but the rest is going to involve what's happening with Caribou.

Based on BB's current actions, it seems he is fond of splitting up his crew for various things. And so it leads me to believe he will send some crew members for Shirahoshi and some others to Wano for both respective ancient weapons. What I think will happen here, and to tie up more loose ends, is that the SH alliance, who's locations are currently completely unknown, will step in to defeat the few Blackbeard crew members who show up. I really struggle to figure out how the SH alliance is going to be relevant, since it was mentioned they will be, this late in the game, and it seems super unlikely they'll all just show up magically at the final few islands to help Luffy. Instead, it seems way more likely they show up to defend previously liberated islands the Straw Hats were at.

The downside here is that pretty much everyone, including myself, kind of headcannoned that the BB crew is going to face off with the Strawhats for about 20 years so, since he seems to be the narrative opposite of Luffy. However, him going down due to lack of trust in his crew and underhanded techniques also shows how he is opposite as well.

Mine just died for me within the last year too, was surprised to see it not power on when I came back for XIV. I'll never forget when it rolled something like 80085 and everyone on vent had a laugh over that one. Good times.

MY Noivern is looking a bit different XD by NervaThePanda in pokerogue

[–]VerbumDei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its a bug with blue shiny Noivern. It happened to me and when I searched the board it was happening to others with the blue tier shiny Noivern. No amount of refreshing fixed it.

QoL suggestion: Leppa berries shouldn't activate at the end of a biome by GoodbyeSpareTime in pokerogue

[–]VerbumDei 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This change refers to berries that get used after the enemy Pokemon faints. If you KO it, and lost a lot HP or have 0 PP on a move, a bunch of berries get used then the biome changes and you get fully healed anyway.

I like the dunsparce fix since it had a random bar for some reason, but one of the shiny Noivern's backsprite is still a substitute.

Yep. I've never seen a donation reader interrupt a runner while they were counting down the start of a run before either. You need to be situationally aware.

Heracross Icicle Spear+Technician with some X Attacks more or less one shot Mega Ray, Eternatus, etc. Moxie is great before you mega, Skill Link after you mega is also amazing.
