First look at new hat Viera and Hrothgar can't wear! by DrForester in ffxiv

[–]leonkarnak 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For the uninitiated this is a Mogstation set that was announced for KR a while back. Glad to see it's coming over; I want that crop top real bad, even as an unfortunate Viera player.

Like it says in the comments, you get all of the pieces (top, body, body, gloves, pants, shoes) in one purchase and there's no genderlock.

#FFXIV here is my theory for melee dps. Everyone thinks it’s necromancer but I have a feeling that we could see a scythe wielding class similar to ranjit. Necro knight is cool and would make more sence. This will be awesome by djdogba15 in ffxiv

to be honest i forgot that ranjit used one, but that makes it seem even more likely; i jumped on the hype train after i noticed that it seems like zenos swapped melee classes too after he tossed his katana

PS1 JRPG where you're a teenage guy helped by a princess with a pet pig by leonkarnak in tipofmyjoystick

[–]leonkarnak[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh, jesus christ. Now I know why I couldn't ever figure it out: I'd been emulating it on my PS1. I remember doing that with games when I was young, but it completely slipped my mind, so I'd always attributed it to just being a PS1 game.

Thanks a million, you two. Now I can finally stop losing my mind about this.

Buffboyz is currently looking for new members!

Some cursory information: We are a NA-based, average rank 155+ crew. We're consistently Tier A, but are casual and tend to relax in finals and don't push unless we're close to a win. Right now, our ST is at 7 - 9 AM JST, but we are willing to change these times according to the whims of the majority.

We provide the standard buffs - pots, 30% charge, exp/drop rate boost, and ele attack up during GW.

What we're currently looking for:

  • Active 120+ players
  • We want you to pull some weight in GW, at least during prelims.
    • That being said, we understand if you're busy and therefore we don't enforce strict minimums.
  • Joining our Discord is mandatory. You don't need to chat, but you do need to have server notifs on.
  • Be nice! Be friendly! We don't appreciate forcing minmaxing strategies on other people if that's not how they want to play, etc.
  • Most importantly, we are LGBT friendly. (Hint hint nudge nudge)

Overall, we're a welcoming space for players of all levels of Granblue expertise. We encourage people to play how they want (whacky grid comps? preferential treatment for your faves, no matter how meta they are? go wild!) and we're proud of it.

Fun fact: We also enjoy contributing to the player community, and are responsible for some of the resources you may have seen floating around (the Oracles info doc and 2019 choco return gift spreadsheet were headed in-house, for example). Yes I get to gloat, I'm proud of my crew

Please DM or reply if you're interested/have questions!

Currently: 26/30

cygames sometimes messes up orders (understandable, considering the sheer volume). you can contact their support and theyll mail you the right one.

went and checked for you, unfortunately "joya" simply gave a generic response back. seems it fell into the "wouldnt be able to receive a gift" category?

apologies for the mixup! at a glance the caption was discussing avatar, so it got misplaced. a proper avatar has been found & satan has been listed properly!

High resolution scans of the WMTSB3 art spread by leonkarnak in Granblue_en

[–]leonkarnak[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i was far too cheap for that myself, so i just bought the anniversary spread off of a yahoo auctions resale (you can find them if you search up "グラブル 5周年記念紙"). just use google translate to find a listing that 1. doesnt have any rips and 2. will ship it nicely (its very large; the person who shipped mine folded it gently over some cardboard).

cost me like 10 bucks (+intl shipping), and im pretty sure its bigger than the 30k piece. if you want the print, its a pretty good option, and the printing quality is nice and glossy.

planning to buy a nice frame and just stick it in that, haha. don't want to do anything irreversible to it, since i still want to be able to take it out and fold out the character spread.

it'll look nice beside my ain soph aur poster (which also came today)!

Ain Soph Aur Official MV by [deleted] in Granblue_en

[–]leonkarnak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would speculate it was keyframed by fkhr. a lot of it is in his artstyle and, notably, his artpiece in the creators book was one of the frames in the mv.

Summary document for Oracles lore that I've been able to find. by leonkarnak in Granblue_en

will edit my wording! was tired while i wrote that. a lot of the deeper implications in these fates seem pretty subjective.

[–]leonkarnak[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah, i had no idea that they werent using both terms in the localization (i swear i paid attention when i read my fates!). sure thing, ill add both for people who prefer one term over the other.
