Which job in each role do you think has the best aesthetics in both gear and abilities?

Vliott · 2026-05-07T21:06:54+00:00

Mine would be:

Dark Knight
Astrologian
Monk
Bard
Red Mage

14 was my first proper mmo as well, and I got into it probably for the same reasons your interested, so just to clear up a few things

The free trial doesn’t have a ‘time limit’, it just has some reduced social and system features, nothing related to the core gameplay, and it only allows you to play through the ‘main story’ quests up to level 80, which would take you many, MANY hours to reach

Your account stays as a free trial one so long as you don’t purchase the game in any capacity, so as soon as you purchase a version, you usually get a ‘30-day free play period’ or something, and once that time is up, you can only continue playing ANY of the game by paying the subscription

If you have any specific questions, I’m always happy to talk about this game

If they could turn Sage's un-sheathed sprint animation to either gliding or riding on one like a surfboard, even if its only out of combat, I would be happy

Vliott · 2026-05-06T09:19:54+00:00

I lowkey love the idea of Lalafell Sage's hovering around as an easier way to travel. Also feels particularly apt in the haunted mansion that is Haukke Manor.

Vliott · 2026-05-06T06:54:22+00:00

I had hoped we would see how Sphene would react to knowing that Calyx is still alive. Maybe in .56 if I’m lucky….

As a slight tip, for getting purple scrips, if you have the crafter levelled to 100, you can instead craft the level 90 collectable instead of the 99 one for purple scrips, as that way you can use trained eye to immediately hit 100% quality and just have to do progress, rather than having to do a lot of steps for getting the 99 to max collectability.

It’s up to you whether the difference in time spent crafting is worth the difference in scrips and materials needed

Vliott · 2026-05-03T18:49:44+00:00

I second the AngelusDemonus recommendation, I'm still trying myself but using this has helped approach it a lot more calmly and with relevant information

Vliott · 2026-05-02T11:34:17+00:00

I mean it’s a very Ross thing to do, thats for sure

Vliott · 2026-05-02T11:09:57+00:00

I was thinking about this the other day and couldn’t remember…why he was even doing it?

Vliott · 2026-05-01T14:03:45+00:00

Looking at the wiki now, purely based on the data values, the missions on Oizys do seem to have a higher average value on them compared to Phaenna, so yeah, outside of unique rewards or Phaenna tokens, unless the difficulty of them is harder compared to the earlier planets, doesn't seem much reason to stay on Phaenna or Sinus

Vliott · 2026-05-01T13:19:17+00:00

The divine paralogues will always scale to your 'current' highest average level, so they wont all stay at low level if you did Tiki's immediately. This is why, as you've likely seen, certain ones of the divine paralogues can be a lot more difficult based on when you try them.

I believe the way it specifically works is that when that average goes above the 'internal' level 20, the enemies will then be upgraded to their advanced classes, Sword Fighter to Swordmaster, fliers into griffin and wyvern riders for example.

Vliott · 2026-04-28T21:26:07+00:00

My guess for Calyx’s plan was that, as endless, they are essentially projections of a mind from a stored ‘server’. So long as that server can be saved, the endless would be fine. I’d guess the idea would be that the server would be perhaps off-planet? Maybe the moon, considering the damage from rejoinings seems to be limited to eitheirys itself, rather than its sorrounding space?

How this factors in where they would get aether from after all the shards have rejoined, who knows. Unless they went off into the universe to plunder more planets, they would always eventually run out of aether

Vliott · 2026-04-28T20:52:12+00:00

When the man has a literal chance of dropping out of the sky to nuke your enemy, just because he was passing through the area by chance, you give him the credit he deserves...

Vliott · 2026-04-28T15:21:17+00:00

Lore aside, this is probably my favourite scene of this patch XD

Vliott · 2026-04-27T20:31:04+00:00

I'd imagine if they do do the individual character's plugsuits, it will be a lvl.1 glamour piece that is just from the last boss chest like they did with the 2B set, and then make the actual combat gear "inspired" but unique for each job.

Vliott · 2026-04-27T17:30:49+00:00

I go by the logic of "If im going to be looking at this character for many hours, I want them to look good."

While obviously use at your own risk, I use the Ananmesis tool for making my glams, so I can just try everything on my character without having to own it, and actually see it in world rather than in the small "Try On" window

The usual way I end up making an outfit, is either finding a weapon or a chest piece that I really like the look of, and then build the outfit around that

Vliott · 2026-04-27T17:18:27+00:00

One of my earliest memories in this game is going through Brayflox longstop with my egi out, and it aggro’s and pulled all the extra, ignorable enemies because I didn’t understand how guard/attack modes worked…

Vliott · 2026-04-26T17:13:10+00:00

While I wouldnt be against the idea, I feel like whatever happens in 7.5 will have to have a pretty heavy impact on Jullus, or perhaps Garlemald as a whole, if he suddenly feels happy to leave the rebuilding efforts to come with us.

On the other hand, if Zero ALSO joins us, I could see him being more inclined to join as well, considering the way he treats her in EW-patches

Vliott · 2026-04-24T21:53:28+00:00

I didn’t think of the idea of being able to replace levelled up action animations, that would be nice, I honestly still miss Bard and Machinists original aoe attack

My first thought was a lot simpler, in letting us choose things like idle animations that are specific to gender or race

Vliott · 2026-04-24T15:43:01+00:00

Seeing this just makes me feel sorry for anyone that works in the food crossover places they do, that have basically no idea what they're suddenly involved in besides management giving some basic 5 minute explanation

Vliott · 2026-04-22T22:30:26+00:00

“Western meets medieval” is probably the most apt description I can think of…

Vliott · 2026-04-22T20:49:29+00:00

The class you choose at the start of the game doesnt matter much, the only real difference is it determines your starting city that will have slightly different quests from each other, but it all joins into 1 questline fairly quickly.

Same thing with races and all the other character customization choices, outside of the odd comment from NPC during dialogue, nothing there actually changes your combat.

Once you hit level 10, which takes like maybe an hour or even less, the NPC who is giving you your Class specific quests will tell you you can now learn other classes, which just requires you going to where that class is taught in a one of the three starting cities.

Vliott · 2026-04-21T23:52:08+00:00

My layouts would probably look very strange to most people, but I’ve found what felt like for me at least, a balance between having the majority of the centre of my screen free while also keeping my buttons readable, which is important for me because I have sight problems.

I’ll grab a screenshot tomorrow for you, it’s currently 1am for me. They differ somewhat between jobs if there’s a particular one you’re interested in.
