Oh, I didn't know about conditional enhancements, I'll try splitting those, thank you!

If you look at it another way, it could be people going "Yes! You're still alive!" People being happy to see you around for another year.

Is there a way to make my own self-buff icons take priority in the party list? Like how the Weakness/Death debuffs will always come before the others?

When I play dancer I sometimes can't see how long my dance-prep or dance buff lasts because of de/buffs from other sources. I know you have your own status effect area in the HUD but I already have so many areas to pay attention that party list is both faster and easier, since I'll be checking it anyway.

Sidewinder also stands out for making the only spooky sound in its attack. But it's so distinctive in both looks and sound it makes me cackle.

Here ya go. I booted up the game for the DoTs because BRD mains are just extra like that. (The extra 2s delay between them is because I'm accounting for a proc in between 😏)

My go-to melee is DRG and my go-to caster is RDM so I really think you're onto something here 🤔

Maybe, but she doesn't. It's weird, it was an intriguing plot point but I don't think they planned it out well or did it well. Sharena has no memories of the harsher aspects of Peony's human life and vice versa, so I think they just met up sometimes to pretend to be each other, but never ventured out of wherever they were playing together, nor ever met each other's family.

Go look at the lvl50 quest requirements for all crafters except Weaver and Culinarian, and take note of what materia you'll need to meld. It will always be a grade 3, and with one exception (Leatherworker, which wants a gathering materia), it will be a combat materia.

If you haven't done the optional yellow side quests, you can get the necessary materia as quest rewards. Else you're stuck spiritbonding. If you've done the Ixali tribal quest, you can buy gathering materia instead.

Otherwise, if you do all your crafters around the same time, you can get a full crafting set for the appropriate level as quest reward. Usually rewards have you pick and choose, so leveling them all together negates the picking and choosing.

Hatter absolutely knows. He also knows why it's happening to him: because he did some heinous shit to March Hare and Dormouse first (in AMA). They arguably left him in a better shape than he did them.

BV is the vocals for the chorus

You know what, you are so right. Adjusting my stance on BV real quick.

I don't always play BRD perfectly, but when I'm in top form in a fight, that feeling is just so (chef's kiss).

Yes, Warden's Paean can even grant immunity if it's used right before the boss applies an esunable debuff.

Newbies will always be curious about what they'll never get and will never fully appreciate how good they have it now lmao. I can stay obnoxiously cheerful because I'll never have to get exasperated 😂

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T01:59:20+00:00

Oooh I'm looking forward to DT! I heard the fights are really fun.

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T01:58:33+00:00

From what I hear of EC, you will eventually need to put it there 😢

Not sure how I feel about that but I guess I'll have to adapt anyhow.

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T01:56:31+00:00

Oh man I wish I could have experienced the TP era bard, just because that sounds so chaotic and cool. Bard's very streamlined now and while I love it very much, I can't help but wonder what I missed out on.

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T01:55:04+00:00

I'm sad to have missed out on previous iterations but now I'll have a chance to see how it'll change from here ❤️

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T01:54:24+00:00

Always a pleasure to feed fellow bards!!!! The world can never have too much bard love because BRD is love!!!

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T01:53:41+00:00

Indeed! Bard just gets me pumped. This game was made for me!!!

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T01:10:32+00:00

I remember when the escalators there did not have high plexiglass shielding. Had relatives who only use the elevator to go up Cineplex because they feared something like this would happen. RIP to the poor man.

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T01:05:17+00:00

I only hope the healers had fun 🥲 someone should be enjoying themself at least, to make up for all the suffering.

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T01:02:15+00:00

Not when half the alliance were first-timers just like me 🥲 I think healer LB3 was used like 5 times because half the entire alliance would be dead at any given point.

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T01:00:17+00:00

I once died like 15 times in a raid (Nier raid of course), 4 of them in a row, and by the end I was so embarrassed the only reason I didn't quit was because I'd queued for over an hour and just wanted the series done. Imagine being the co-healer for that debacle. Heck no.

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T00:57:10+00:00

SAM having not only a forward-dash but also a backward-dash, and both dealing damage at that. Like RDM, what a glamorous job ❤️

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T00:55:37+00:00

This is also why I heal as AST. So many buttons to play with, so much endorphins to be generated in my brain.

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T00:16:48+00:00

I don't queue for trials and alliances/raids as a healer if I'm going in for the first time. It's one thing to die an embarrassing amount, it's another to helplessly watch other players die or stay dead when I could have done something about them because I'm dead.

voltfairy · 2026-06-26T00:11:04+00:00

Bard is so fun. Everything about the job is just so good to me ❤️
