people forgetting to multiplay in a multiplayer game and gets upset about it

A lot of reviews came out for the failed Lost Soul Aside today, I guess no one got review copies in advance. Anyway, they were pretty harsh, IGN gave it a 5 and I saw a 4 out there as well. It definitely qualifies as an immediate write-off.

Throw at least one crystal in both, before taking whichever to max.

Yeah, I totally agree with this. While still a bit silly from the outset, Jojo still had a somewhat grounded power system (hamon), then it completely disregarded it in favor of going full silly and bizarre (stand power, that could be anything the author wants it to be at any moment). It gets a pass because, in a sense, it's staying true to what it is (or what it was supposed to become), and it provides that silly, unique adventurous entertainment. By S3, it's just a bunch of puzzle horror encounters where anyone can have 300 IQ depending on how Araki wants the encounter to play out.

Now I can't accept that in JJK because it's meaningless there. JJk wants to tell a stroy with an established cast and a world with an established power system, but you quickly realize that the power system is poorly constructed & doesn't really matter, because character abilities are constructed on the fly, and are unnecessarily complicated with rules that you need a primer/manual to grasp them to understand (and enjoy) "the game" that is about to go down, which is made worse when one of the characters dies in the next fight anyways.

It's something Togashi went to extremes with in HxH and I very much dislike it. It's so unchecked in the Dark Contenant arc that 90% of the dialogue is explaining newly establisted, complex game rules, with the remaining 10% being characters playing 5D chess. Go make a game already instead of gamifying your manga to such ridiculous degrees.

Yes. FoV Ru'Aun Gardens. Old heads know.

So was it FoV?

The irony is that the "larger" your server is, the less social people are in general. You have one person who basically plays FFXI by "himself" with his army of alts, never needing to interact with others unless it's a group activity where progress is important (Gaol, Sortie, Master Trials etc, but even that can be multiboxed to an extent). Most of these problems that Asura faced would be instantly solved if people simply joined up together for common goals like HTBF, Deeds/Peculiar Foes, Ambuscade, Einherjar, etc. Instead, you just get hundreds dozens of players doing tasks by themselves, which leads to congestion. You add mercs to the equation and it's no wonder everything is flooded all of the time.

As a QOL adjustment, I wish they would add a real Duty/Raid/Event-Finder system. Something like a dynamic list that players can sign up for various events, and event-leaders can check for any interested persons, and instantly invite them without any delay. I feel like Yelling/Shouting is kind of a bad system to fill groups, especially since Term Filter can unintentionally block out messages you would otherwise want to see.

Is there a maximum number of buffs that you can have total, or just a maximum display amount? (I know about 12 song/roll limit, but I mean over all, all buffs. Is there a hard cap in the code?)

Ahh, thank you that makes so much sense now.


Thank you, I think I understand the Swart now. I think I'm gonna Augment my Tizona to full while at the same time working on Death Penalty from the very beginning. I'm sure by the time I max Aug my Tiz then I'll be ready to Aug DP.

hey we're at least 12 on Shiva

I don't mind giving it up depending on the situation. In any content that matters you're to be floored to 6%. I suppose you could boost that up to 11% with an Ambu back? I think Banhammer put it best, just view it as grip.


I've got six different idle sets for my WHM: Refresh, DT, PDT, Misery, ResistSilence, Reraise (Sphere body). That's overkill and far more than anyone needs, but I appreciate each of them whenever their niche situations arise.

*** server merges
and especially *** everyone who keeps suggesting "merge the smaller servers".

This is why I don't want server merges. I don't want to deal with this crap

Shields dont effect your ilvl iirc. Also your block chance is floored anywhere it matters on any job not pld unless you build for it, and even then it likely wont amount to much unless you're war or bst with adapa shield

Valkyrie makes the problem worse because now everyone and their hamster just afks at the gate with it on and doesn't realize that they actually managed to enter, holding everyone out.

Genbu's shield can in theory be augmented with MEVA if you lucked out on the random augment pool. +4 is the highest I’ve seen on other gear pieces outside of Blood Cuisses. I do a lot of Tatter and Scrap Synergy for my 75 DRK used on Campaign battles.

MEVA is also possible on FOV augments as I have tracked at least 1 earring with it so there is no reason to believe it is not possible on a shield. +5 is probably the theoretical max as I have seen +5 EVA often.

All this to say I am questioning the shield because not having an iLv shield equipped when taking any direct or AoE physical damage seems crazy to me to throw away the increased block chance. Is everyone going to make a new idle toggle when you tanking adds in Gaol NMs?

It's quite hilarious they make QOL updates that almost nobody* is asking for (dynamis for example), but the few things that would make everyone's life significantly easier never gets touched.

Spamming entry gate is the primary reason I don't want to do another mythic. You'd think it would be as easy as every person trying to get in would simply flag up, get invited, and leader pops a bunch of lamps (by the way, THAT'S an archaic model to begin with, why does EVERYONE need a lamp?) and everyone can join in. But because it takes an extra 30 seconds of work, nearly nobody does it. Same reason why the HTBF lines are always clogged shortly after a release or during a campaign. Or ambuscade. Sadly, people would rather solo and take FOREVER than join someone and get significantly more progress in a shorter time. People really do enjoy wasting time.

Carol and Tuesday is pretty good :S

The amount of time I've gotten a lamp, tried to copy it my 2nd character, and then been locked out of the zone due to someone pulling is less than 0. I'll just spam (if I ever do another mythic).
