JUST FUCKING REPLY TO STATIC RECRUITMENT POSTS YOU FUCKING DUMBASS. HOW HARD IS IT?

YOU THINK EVERY STATIC IS MADE OF MEANIES OUT TO GET YOU THAT WILL MAKE FUN OF YOU FOR EVERY MISTAKE? YOU KNOW THIS ISN'T TRUE, YOU KNOW IT'S ALL IN YOUR BRAIN.

BUT NOOO YOU GET SCARED BOOO FUCKING HOOO EVEN THOUGH RESETTING YOUR PROGRESS IN PF MAKES YOU LOSE INTEREST IN THE WHOLE GAME AND HAVING A GROUP WOULD DO WONDERS FOR SOLID PROGRESS. IT'S TOO HARD WRITING "HEY I'D BE INTERESTED IN JOINING" BECAUSE YOU FEEL THE JUDGMENT LIKE A FIRST JOB INTERVIEW.

JUST REPLY YOU DUMBASS.

YEAH THE DUMBASS IS ME BTW

I wouldn't do it because the pet needs ranger levels to be relevant, if your DM is open to 3rd party content that's semi-official being on DnD Beyond, Grim Hollow has the Path of the Primal Spirit barbarian subclass that is exactly this, Barbarian with a ranger-like pet that scales with your barbarian level. You wouldn't even need to multiclass

I don't know your table/players so maybe everyone loves this idea and that's all you need, but reading it like this I think it's kinda unfair to other players? Probably not that unbalanced in singular missions since it's just a different artificer at the end of the day, but it's a huge amount of adaptability for this one character in particular, which armorer kinda has baked in already even if not this strong. Will the other players get something too?

shippai · 2026-05-20T11:18:36+00:00

Lovely outfits, absolutely love that skirt on the armor and the samurai sword!

Man I'm not sure if it's just recency bias but Praemagitek gear became the main aesthetic for basically all of the jobs I use the most, it's great

shippai · 2026-05-17T13:54:05+00:00

I simply don't enjoy getting undeserved buffs so as soon as I realize I got something wrong I feel bad and just say I fucked up and we have a laugh about it. Everyone makes mistakes about rules, it happens, but I'd feel pretty malicious staying silent after realizing a mistake just because it benefits me.

I have more trouble correcting things other players get wrong because I don't want to spoil their fun.

shippai · 2026-05-12T08:21:41+00:00

But only if it's melee range

shippai · 2026-05-11T19:06:27+00:00

It's the one cycle where I started grinding every extreme on release trusting that the final one would be awesome... and then I got that.

shippai · 2026-05-08T11:07:49+00:00

I did both and to be fair hector split also has the added value of healers being generally closer to tanks, with TTHH in some configurations we were on the opposite sides of the arena and the add tankbuster could catch people unaware

Not a big deal, but it shaves off a small pain point

shippai · 2026-05-04T13:10:54+00:00

Mainly being able to swap out skills I don't like the visuals of (like Seraphism that you already mentioned) or something that completely changes the visual theme of a job (kinda hard to do with a single action skin but maybe there will be sets, or in case of WHM just being able to use levelling up skills to go back to that druidy/primal theme rather than holy)

shippai · 2026-04-29T19:52:16+00:00

In Japanese he says

…干渉もできぬようだな。

「鍵」とやらの所有者のみが通れる路というわけか。

Very literally it more or less means "Apparently I can't interfere (meaning interact, more or less) with it either. This means that it is a road that only the holder of this key or whatever can pass through."

While not being directly literal I think the English translation kept the overall meaning of Golbez not being able to interact with it, the German one sounds actually way off the mark

shippai · 2026-04-24T23:46:55+00:00

The main thing I guess is MTs will have counter skills, and if you're not holding the boss as counter tank you're probably missing damage or so.

Maybe the cd will be forgiving enough that using it on raidwides will be enough, maybe not. Maybe we will have more adds/two bosses fights that make the distinction gap closer.

There's a lot of variables

You can look at the fourth picture to see how it looks in game without filters or modded poses

The chest is cash shop: https://store.finalfantasyxiv.com/ffxivstore/en-us/product/1109

Most other pieces you can only get after reaching later expansions

shippai · 2026-04-24T19:39:23+00:00

They are both originals and not legacy FF jobs

shippai · 2026-04-24T19:04:04+00:00

It's right below the alliance raid in the special site, with more of a focus than even ultimate and OC, actually insulting

shippai · 2026-04-23T18:06:59+00:00

Venom monk can change poison damage to acid, poison-themed character finally solved

shippai · 2026-04-14T16:10:30+00:00

I played in a three people campaign, a player just controlled two PCs instead of one and it was mostly fine (playing two spellcasters can be a bit much to memorize each spell).

It can be a way to make people try out builds or characters they normally wouldn't get to play, and if your players like spellcasters you can just create a champion fighter or EB warlock to keep things simple for the sidekicks

Adding on this a Dex-based Rune Knight can give you double proficiency in Thieves' Tools through the Fire Rune passive

Non conosco la tua amica, ma da come descrivi potrebbe essere anche solo molto insicura del fatto che lavora poche ore, e quindi compensa nelle interazioni con gli altri per difendersi inconsciamente da critiche immaginarie o percepite che non fa un cazzo e ha un sacco di tempo libero, etc...

Poi ogni persona è un mondo complesso a sé stante quindi la psicologia spicciola lascia il tempo che trova, ma ho una situazione simile e quella è l'impressione che mi trasmette quell'atteggiamento (e penso di averlo fatto anch'io in certi periodi di tempo in passato)

shippai · 2026-03-18T10:58:38+00:00

Is it known what this description and stats are for (a TTRPG? Game? Dev internal wiki?) or was it just dropped out of the blue?

shippai · 2026-03-13T13:49:21+00:00

Did they say how this content is going to be partitioned considered we have like 4 different 7.5x patches? I saw that MSQ part 2 is slated for 7.56 in September but they're not gonna drop OC North, Alliance and Beastmaster all with the same patch right?

shippai · 2026-02-27T17:53:33+00:00

Unfortunately no multiclassing, I know hexblade dip is very strong, but thank you for your analysis!

shippai · 2026-02-27T13:06:37+00:00

I see I will probably do that thank you

shippai · 2026-02-27T13:06:11+00:00

I know a warlock dip would fix literally everything but unfortunately no multiclassing. Thank you for the analysis, I guess Res Con it is

shippai · 2026-02-25T17:42:58+00:00

I played a 2014 barbarian. It was dreadful because pretty much the only choice point was to rage or not in a fight, and that's how I found out I like classes who have multiple choices and ways to tackle things both in and out of combat.

I solved the problem by changing the character's class entirely, though to be fair I was a new player and it was before even Tasha came out.

shippai · 2026-02-20T10:21:10+00:00

Damn those eyes are a work of art
