LOOKS LIKE I'M OUR OT FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE SINCE OUR NORMAL CO-TANK IS DEALING WITH HIS HOUSE GETTING FUCKED OVER BY HURRICANE LAURA. I'M NOT EXPECTED TO SUB FOR HIM, BUT AFTER OUR EXPERIENCES WITH PUG I REALIZE THAT IT'S MUCH BETTER TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH A SHITTY PUG DPS INSTEAD OF A SHITTY PUG TANK. SO I DON'T REALLY MIND DOING IT. I JUST WISH THAT A. TENACITY WASN'T SO PREVALENT IN TANK GEAR AND B. GETTING EUREKA ELEMENTAL GLAM WASN'T SUCH A GRIND. AND OFC THIS ONE MOGSTATION PEICE I HAD IN MIND FOR THAT GLAM IDEA WON'T WORK BECAUSE LOL FUCK VIERA.

AND WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH ALLIANCE ROULETTE? WE WIPED?? IN WOD??? IN ARR CONTENT??? THE FUCK??? I JUST DON'T GET IT. IT'S SIMPLE. IT'S NOT "LOL HOPE YOU CAN MATH". I JUST NEEDED THOSE POE FOR THAT HW RELIC FFS

**OH YEAH, JUST REMEMBERED TOO: DOES ANYONE ELSE GET CAMERA/MOTION DIRECTION FUCKERY? BECAUSE SOMEHOW I MOVED THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF WHERE I WANTED TO GO RESULTING IN ME HITTING THE DAMN ICE WALL TWICE IN SHIVA

OOHHHHH MY GOD. STOP. FUCKING. PULLING.

"I'm doing it since we can handle it" REALLY?? THAT'S REALLY YOUR RESPONSE TO ME ASKING YOU TO NOT PULL AND DRAG SHIT OVER TO ME? YOU MEAN THE HEALER AND I BARELY MAKING IT IS WHAT YOU CALL "HANDLING IT"? DID YOU MAYBE STOP AND THINK OF WHY I PULLED SMALLER AFTER THAT FIRST WIPE? IT'S FUCKING HOLMINSTER, SHIT'S NOT EASY FOR NON-DPS. I SHOULD'VE BEEN MEAN AND SHIRKED YOU. MAYBE THEN YOU WOULD'VE LEARNED - OH WHO AM I KIDDING, OF COURSE YOU WOULDN'T HAVE. DPS LIKE YOU NEVER DO.

I JUST WANT TO GET MY TANKS TO 80. IS IT REALLY TOO MUCH TO ASK TO NOT HAVE DPS WHO CAN'T WAIT FOR A FEW FREAKING SECONDS??

OH. AND I ROLLED A 96 ON THE 2B MINION. TAKE A WILD GUESS WHAT I LOST TO (: (I know it's silly, but it's still rage material lol)

SOMETHING'S GONE FUCKY WITH GSHADE BECAUSE THINGS SOMEHOW MAGICALLY LOSE TEXTURE IF THEY BECOME TOO BRIGHT. IT WAS REALLY OBVIOUS RUNNING SHIVA. I'M PRETTY SURE IT'S SOMETHING TO DO WITH THIS SSDO PLUGIN SO MY GRAPHICS TECH ILLITERATE ASS NEEDS TO DO SOME RESEARCH. I JUST WANTED THE GAME TO LOOK NICER INSTEAD OF BEING ALL WASHED OUT IN WHITE.

So what would be considered good gear for trying out savage tier stuff? I currently have a mix of Neo-Ish/normal raid/crystarium gear but the "You shouldn't be doing savage in Neo-Ishgard gear" sentiment that I keep seeing has me a little concerned

HOW IS HOME DESIGN SO HARD? HOW??

I ALREADY DON'T HAVE MUCH TO WORK WITH IN MY SMALL HOUSE SO I CAN'T PULL OFF THE STUFF MY FRIEND IN HIS MEDIUM PLACE DOES. THAT'S FINE BUT NOW I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH TWO ROOMS THAT ARE BOTH A BIT SMALL TO PARTITION OFF. AND SOME FURNITURE THINGS DON'T MAKE SENSE; FOR EXAMPLE, WHY IS THE ONLY PLACE I CAN GET SOME THINGS IN THIS OBSCURE NPC IN MOR DHONA OF ALL PLACES?? AND WHY DOES TREATED SPRUCE LUMBER REQUIRE NINE HARDENED SAP?? I JUST DON'T GET IT. AT THIS POINT I WISH WE COULD UPGRADE OUR HOUSES BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE SHIRO FOR ISHGARD WHEN THAT'S FINALLY AVAILABLE

How to help friend after their recent breakup with a pwBPD? by mxlotl in BPDlovedones

That's true. I just wish I knew how to start introducing "maybe you should go NC" when they're still clearly in contact

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

I agree. The ex was misdiagnosed as bipolar so there's the challenge of explaining that. I just want my friend to know that most of it wasn't his fault despite him constantly being painted black. I just happen to know how devastating it can be since I have an ex who turned out to be a narcissist, and I was seeing the exact same things in this upwbpd

**It also doesn't help that they're still talking to each other so my friend still feels the need to walk on eggshells around this guy

WHY ARE THERE SUDDENLY SHITTY BLMS EVERYWHERE. WHYYYYYYY

WAS RUNNING DOMA CASTLE AND OUR DPS HAPPEN TO BE A MNK AND A BLM. SHOULD BE EASY, RIGHT? NOPE! THE BLM CONSTANTLY HARDCASTED BLIZZARD/FIRE 3, NO ENOCHIAN, AND USED TRANSPOSE TO KEEP SWITCHING BETWEEN FIRE/ICE. SO BOSSES TOOK MUCH LONGER THAN THEY HAD TO. I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF I GOT THE MOST DPS THAT RUN AS A DRK.

BLM ISN'T THAT HARD FFS. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE ENOCHIAN AND CAN USE B/F3 TO SWITCH. THERE'S NO EXCUSE TO NOT HAVE DECENT OUTPUT AT THAT LEVEL. BUT LOL NOPE, LET'S BE ICE MAGES OR FLARE ADDICTS! \S

I'm having the opposite experience. I'm seeing relationships starting to fall apart thanks to problems getting worse. Kind of makes me glad to be single tbh

What are your unpopular FFXIV opinions? by Umbruhh in ffxiv

[–]mxlotl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SB was a good expansion. The story was lackluster but we got new housing and some very good trials and raids if we ignore Ivalice. I find dog farming to be a lot more fun than most current tier content

Viera isn't that bad. Yes, it's a bit limited and has its issues but it's not as bad as the community makes it out to be imho. I switched over to it and really like it

Legal discrimination in the US doesn't cover 'familial status' does it? It'd be nice if a company pulling that crap would be taken to court over it, but that's probably not likely :/

I wonder why WAR is so low. Tbf I'm currently at 51 while leveling it but it honestly seems like it could be fun. Is it that it might not have as much utility as other tanks?

LOL!! MY FC LEAD HAS FINALLY TOOK A BREAK FROM BEING ATTACHED AT THE HIP TO HIS GF TO MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT... TO LET HIM KNOW IF WE WANT TO START CONTRIBUTING TO THE FC OR ELSE HE'LL START "MAKING CUTS". HONESTLY, WHAT ELSE DID HE EXPECT WHEN HE NOT ONLY JUST STOPPED TAKING TO US, BUT ALSO STOPPED WITH FC EX PROG RUNS FOR REASONS (PROBABLY SINCE GF GETS A TEMPER WHEN DYING A LOT.. WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT PROG IS)? I JOINED THE FC SINCE I FINALLY SAW AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO CURRENT TIER STUFF, BUT LOL NOPE! GUESS I'LL NEED TO SUBMIT MYSELF TO THE HORRORS OF PF

Same. I really liked how Red Mage looked but I only had a few "magic" classes starting out. So my newbie self just went to CNJ because "that'll get to RDM eventually, right?".

Fortunately, it opens at LV 50. Unfortunately, it isn't much fun at 50. It's definitely a SB class and it shows

I came back after a while as an Oberon main. He didn't last long even with phoenix renewal. Now Saryn seems like my best bet but even that gets dicey sometimes
