Some old friends had an inside joke that whenever we were getting called one by one (to receive a distinction or something) that the best was always saved for last. Then one of them would get called up and you could hear the hushed "Dang it!" coupled with a giggle of victory. Anyway that's basically how i feel every time my main goes without being featured another day. #1 is probably viper to complete the bookends (since #21 was picto) but i'll be pretty happy if my job makes the top 5
I just realized monk ROF/ROW are now getting new ranged GCDs (right?) Basically mudras except fewer of them so it doesn't feel like cheating. That's kinda huge, it feels like it will give just enough leeway for a good melee to keep uptime, and we all know how much the fight designers like to put big mechanics and movement/downtime during burst windows. Monk will probably be my 3rd job to level and gear up after samurai and dark knight
word of advice for anyone thinking of buying soda for the promo event
Dont
Instead, consider waiting a couple years for when all the rewards are gonna get put on the mogstation. And it'll probably be cheaper than however much mountain dew you would be pouring down the sink. Really, think about what you're missing? "Mountain Zu"? Think of your favorite mount, is some random zu any better? Zu is a regular enemy, you can go out and fight one anywhere, its not some Bajamut Blast or anything, the mount is just a fuckin regular green bird. If you don't participate in the promo then you aren't missing anything spectacular.
This has been a cynical XIV PSA
No, they just removed any gain from playing nonstandard BLM by forcing 6f4 standard line in order to get your high potency finisher in astral fire and forcing you to do GCDs to recover MP in ice. Also kneecapping font of magic+flare star use in Bozja. Unless the potency of the fire spells is royally screwed up, BLM is going to be a completely static rotation with no skill expression other than optimizing your movement so you can put 5x xenoglossy in buffs
The guitar for bard is pretty awesome, i love it when classes get an alternate take on their weapon type e.g. warrior hammers. The samurai and summoner top look good on the Au Ra ladies.
Pretty crazy for a program to have that egregious a vulnerability, but also the version of the emulator with the ACE exploit (1.6) is more than 12 years old at this point. As the video states, the modern releases are freeware-nagware anyway so everyone is better off switching to a different (+open source) emulator entirely. I like the "virus" shown off at the end of the video too, that was fun
