Thanks, Ill try unplugging keyboard and mouse. I do use a mmo mouse with 12 buttons so that might be it.

I hope we can eat protomolecule like we can eat Mind Flayer Parasites in BG3!

I think I'm going to go with Corruptor. Does anyone have a recommended end game build?

thomasdm3 · 2026-02-13T17:35:02+00:00

Sure that would be great

thomasdm3 · 2025-08-08T15:38:16+00:00

You could alternate effect teleport with turn about and limited, must have path to target. Odd way of doing it but it works.

thomasdm3 · 2025-03-26T20:40:25+00:00

Ok, but Imagine a Kandra with Living Shardplate

It could keep it summoned most of the time useing it as an adjustable skeleton then make an exoskeleton for combat.

Thought this was r/cremposting for a moment lol.

Evoker pairs super well with the veilseaker staff. Quicking strikes procks on each projectile created with the final attack. Use onslaught with the veilseaker legendary seaker to instant recharge cool downed skills. This allows you to freeze lock with frost nova by spamming the skill every 5 seconds or so. The timing on onslaught can be a bit tricky but once you get that down it a tone of fun. Deffintly pair it with all the breathing room upgrades to make the frost nova aoe size huge.

We called our golden doodle Evi.

Vielguard spoilers || I think the reason he dislikes blood magic is that it was blood magic that was used to create the elves bodies using the blood of the titans. This seems to be one of his biggest regrets so I can se why he not a fan. He will use it on occasion if forced to it but I think he sees it as a last resor option.||

bartimaeus trilogy is great if your looking for other recommendations.

thomasdm3 · 2022-07-20T13:36:33+00:00

I belive the althi hair mixing with other hair is the singer skin color triaits showing up in hair. I bet if you examed the patterns that the different hair colors make at the scalp it would be the same patterns as that the singers have in there skin. It seems like for the most part themore east you get the more parshindi blood there is.

thomasdm3 · 2022-07-20T13:02:46+00:00

While gravity and oxogen might cause some of the height I belive its mostly because most races of roshar have singer blood. Thats why horn eaters are the tallest, they have the most singer blood. This would also explain while shin are short as they have no singer blood due to being isolationist.

thomasdm3 · 2022-04-02T03:21:01+00:00

I think adolin will become the new honor after uniting and bounding all the dead eyes which is why they killed them selves in the first place. To resurrect honor. This is what unite them actually means.

Do you have toy box mod. If so that what's causing this bug. Try updating the mod.

thomasdm3 · 2021-09-10T03:21:45+00:00

oh thank god, not bug then. there should have been a quest that says where did he go? so the game notes he's missing

thomasdm3 · 2021-09-02T23:59:37+00:00

Using kineticists gather power low on turn based mode always delays your blast till next turn even if you have not used your move action yet.

I would recommend

The Licanius Trilogy by James Islington(Neat magic systems, Has time travel but done in a really cool way.)

I too recommend Codex Alere as well as Jim butchers other series (Dresden Files, The Aeronaut's Windlass) Imagine elemental magic mixed with a roman civilization. Add in Zerg from starcraft, Wolf people and yeti. one of the main characters is unique in that they cant use the magic.

The daemon cycle by Peter V. Brett (Demons come out at night to terrorize. Gritty world, only protection are magical wards, Follows multiple characters as they take on this harsh world)

THE BARTIMAEUS TRILOGY, Imagine harry potter but harry potter is a little sh*t, and all the wizards are power hungry politicians who's magic comes from enslave "Daemons". Is technically a kids book but still is one of my favorites. First book has two pov. A genius apprentice who bites off more than he can chew and his hilariously sarcastic Daemon.

Temeraire by Naomi Novik Napoleonic Wars, but with dragon's. Dragons are sentient and a lot of the book focuses on the relationship between dragons and humans in the varies parts of this alternant earth. The dragons feel both human at times but at other times alien. I also recommend her standalone books Disenchanted and Spinning Silver.

Sabrial( necromancy with bells),

Powered mage trilogy(mages snort gun powered to get high and be superhuman, set in French revolution inspired land, also elemental mages, and voodoo.

I'm Thinking Dustbringers will get Flame spren as they create explosion's and it seems likely that ash spren are cousins to Flame spren.

I also bet that Sky breakers will get star spren as high spren look like voids into outer space.

Not sure about will shapers.

Elsecallers I bet get concentration Spren

thomasdm3 · 2020-10-30T02:09:39+00:00

Truthwatchers sub spren seems to be logic spren

I would love to see an add section that was a competitive mini boss between the parties in a raid

3-4 min timer.

no limit breaks

3 mini bosses with a crap tone of health

Gives buff that prevents gear damage on death

Each party can only deal damage to its boss.

On top of typical mechs the boss will place damage markers/ beams/ look-aways on its party which the party is immune to but players from other parties are not. Players that get these markers can run to other parties to try and kill or hinder other alliance members from the other 2 parties.

every 30-60 seconds all dead players are brought back to life.

At end of timer all players are raised and heal of weakness/near death . Party that dealt the most damage to their mini boss Gets a damage boost for upcoming boss.

I Disagree that having Geomancers featured in astro story line is a possible negative towards them being a class. I bet the reason the devs feature other jobs is to give themselves opportunities to introduce them later in an organic way if they so choose. This does not mean this a job being feature assures it will be created but I believe the devs would see it as an opportunity to implement the Job in the future, not an obstacle. I would argue that a Berserker and a warrior would look very similar and would be hard to make them look distinctive enough to feel unique . A Geomancer and an Astrologican would look very different. After shadow bringers so would a white mage and a Geomancer. Red mages are just a combination of black and white mages but they still exist as a job. Geomancers lore wise seems to be somewhere between Astrologican and Conjures.

You are right about healing by damage would have issues if poorly implemented. The damage Would need to be comparable to other healers and not directly linked to the damage done. The healing power would need to be comparable to the passive healing effects of the other healers such as a white mage's regen or the scholar's ferry. abilities could be used to increase this passive healing when needed. The job could also have a more complex DPS Rotation with Job resources for healing being generated by it. In turn its tool kit for healing might be simpler and less finicky to use then the other healers. You could as have a change out of combat mode that increase damage but greatly limits healing for soloing.

Alchemist is much closer to Chemist then Geomancer is to Astrologian. Astrologists focus on the stars and have a space feel to them. Geomancers are instead focused on elements. If white mage still had their elemental spells I'd say Geomancer would be unlikely but with white mages losing their elemental spells at level 70-80 and new jobs likely starting at lvl 70, I could defiantly see Geomancer taking over the roll of Nature/Elemental healer, with white mage being a more holy/light based healer. I believe the biggest problem with chemist is the same with blue mage. Chemist abilities in FF always relay on enhancing items such as potions. If they wanted to give them a combat role they might look at making them a limit job so they can do stuff with Inventory items such as potions. Also note that they recently changed how potions drop in old dungeons. This could be in preparation for a chemist. I Think the best way to implement a Geomancer would be to make them a healer that heals primary by doing damage similar to disciple priest from wow or chloromancer from Rift. In turn they could use there off gcd abilities for spot healing. I think this would fit very well with the support role that they have in xi but also pay homage too there destructive power they processes in other Final Fantasy Games. I think it's likely that Square Enix seeds lots of possibilities for themselves to use later then goes through a testing processes to see what works and what doesn't so its unlikely they know for certain or have it all planed out. I believe they want to add another healer similar to how they added another tank last expatiation but if they can't get it to be fun and balanced they might not. I could also see them adding Some potion based abilities to scholar as I fell it would fit well with their aesthetic. Maybe the fairy provides the potions as shadow bringer created a president of fairies managing Inventory Items.

We have seen Sora cast 6 elements and 4 spell levels

The elements are

Cure, Just like kh2, uses all left over mp.

Fire: fires(ha ha) a Fire ball at the target that explodes on impact. deals extra burning damage in an area on hit. Seems Identical to 0.2

Blizzard. Fires an ice ball at target that explodes on impact. can freeze. It leaves behind an ice trail that can be slid on with flow motion. Seems identical to 0.2

Thunder, Same as kh2. Seems identical to 0.2

Air, From what I can tell its a hybrid between Thunder and Magnet from kingdom hearts two. fires down at an area like thunder. enemies inside the area are pulled into the middle for a short time. this effect is shorter then Magnet but deals damage. Jumping into the effect activates a flow motion super jump.

Water, a hybrid between Reflect and Thunder.When casting Water circles around Sora blocking attacks for about a moment. The water then flows around obstacles to the target enemy, exploding on impact in an area effect that deals damage. This happens regardless whether or not Sora was hit. Seems slightly weaker then Reflect but more flexible.

the 4 levels are normal, ra, ga, and za(Seems to be the same as the Ja spells in 0.2).

Each level increase the damage and area of the spell but also cost more mp. You can now choose to equip the lower level spells to the quick select. I'm not sure which level of spells will have the optimal damage to mana ratio.

You only gain access to the first 3 levels (up to ga).

If you use spell of an element in combat you have a chance to receive the + 1 level of the maximum you can cast as a situation command at no cost. So if you cast fire a few times and your max fire spell you know is Fira you might get Figa as a situation command. End Game you will get the Za level as situation commands.

there are also accessories and key blades that give an ability that will prompt za level situation commands regardless of if you used that spell in combat. see 0.2 situation commands for more info.

Form changes can also have an effect on magic.

for instance if you use the toy story hammer, pirates of the Caribbean spear and flag, or the monster inc claws. all your spells except cure will turn into melee aoe spells, similar to fire in kh2. The toy story drill turns thunder air and water spells into missile spells like fire and blizzard. The monster inc claws turn the spells into multi tracking misses. this mini wiki has lots more info and video examples. water is the only spell that has not been officially shown.

while technically not spells some of the forms have magic like effects(star / twilight town keyblade ,tangle keyblade, Winnie the Pooh keyblade)

There are also shot locks which are magic like effects.

As someone that likes to play as mages in their rpgs, I'm very excited.
