What does she even do?
>>336345272
Dies.
>>336345272
Suck dick
>>336345615
In all seriousness; in 1.0 she facilitated interaction between the beast tribes and the city states - allowing trade between the two. 2.0 onwards? Not a fucking thing.
Delegates jobs to her underlings (you).
>>336345272

>>336345792
To be fair, the scions all did something meaningful in 1.x , but in 2.0 they all did nothing because the devs assumed you people actually played 1.0

>>336346451
At least 2.0 babies played a game that wasn't a fucking joke until its first expansion showed that Square Enix is by and large creatively bankrupt.
>>336345272
she's the Scions official cumdump, that why her dress has easy access holes in her butt
>>336346537
It's not even that they do less in 2.0, they just don't make a big deal about it since it's their full time job for the Scions to be the eyes of Minfilia, who is a diplomatic mastermind and keeps the entire fucking island from tearing each other apart like the savages they are.
When can I join the good guys and bring civilization to these fucking animals?
Also, why the fuck have they started using the Garlean theme for things that have jackshit to do with the empire, and stopped using Steel Reason in fights against Garlean officers? I was fucking salty when we finally fought some Garleans in HW and we didn't get to hear the best theme in the game.

>>336346903
I've been playing MMOs since UO and EQ, there was nothing wrong with 1.0 other than the shitty performance, and even then it wasn't the type of run around dodging circles game that required blistering 60fps.
The only people who complained about 1.0 being "clunky" were people weaned on modern themepark MMOs. I'm not shitting on 2.0, but I wish they could have kept 1.0 alive in some form instead of throwing out all the complexity and deliberately paced fights.
No need to go on the offensive about a game you didn't even play.
Hey what level in the storyline is the difference between 1.0 and 2.0? I only started playing about 2 months ago and I don't know anything about the patch history.

>>336346867
If I hear another fucking Nael Van Regula Gaius Darnus Baelsar Deus Hydrus theme again for the next Imperial fight I'm gonna lose my mind.
Steel Reason was fucking awesome. But it fit more with Operation Archon's "This is the final push" vibe I guess.
>>336347080
2.0 is a sequel to 1.0 storyline wise. The best you can do is find a youtube summary of the events of 1.0. They sort of fill you in on the basics in 2.0, but you miss out on a lot that happened, like the White Raven.
>>336347080
It was entirely different, 2.0 is 1.0's "sequel". That cool intro video that you see at the start of ARR? Where Bahamut fucks up everything? That was the final curscene of 1.0
>>336347394
>That horseshit SSJ Louie version
Ruined forever.
>>336347298
So all the main story quests even from level 1 are 2.0 then?
>>336347540
Yes.

>>336347190
>you will never raise a little girl orphan into your loyal murder waifu
Gaius had it made
>>336347069
I wish they had just taken 1.0's world and gameplay mechanics and redone it in a new engine with better netcoding. Just fiddle with the areas and make them interesting looking, and then populate it with things to do. It fucking kills me that the world in 2.0 is completely barren of things to do except for when leveling via fates or running to "hunts". Neither of which are truely group activities, as no one has to or does talk with each other during those activities - except to cry out when someone pulls a spawn too early because there's no community in the game and so such actions have no consequence.
>>336348007
> you will never have a loyal murder waifu
why live
>>336347989
They've actually talked about integrating a way for 2.0 players to experience the events of 1.0.
But this is one of a great many things they've "discussed" adding so expect it in time for 5.0 when none of it is relevant.
On another note, I'm swapping my main to NIN.
Any recommended guides? I have the Job to 60 already but I took a long-ass break from the game because 3.1 was 2 months late and sucked my tiny bellend in terms of content quality and quantity; gonna level an alt character on a different server to get back into the motions of the rotation, and I want to set off on the right foot.

Nah son. The only thing better about 1.0 was the world structure and some classes like Thaumaturge having slightly more interesting skillsets.
>>336348820
Why did they show random shots of Tataru's costumes in the liveletter?
>>336345272
idk i skipped the entire story
>>336348746
i'd hope not, it's all gear you can acquire normally anyways
then again so is the ironworks set, minus the special decals and colors
>>336348917
I guess she's the fan favorite.
Get your ass to the Waking Sands, again. Don't like it? Fuck you.
>>336346957
Its pissing me off so much that they made the garleans the villains. They are literally the coolest characters Ive seen in quite a while in videogames. I sure hope you get to AT LEAST play some kind of a renegade or something who can use magic for some hydealin asspull or something. This would also open the way to make a garlean class available using a gunblade or some shit.
>>336348612
>>336348729
are they doing a vote on which of Tataru's outfits is best?
Because she looks best as an Arcanist.
doesn't really matter since she'sdead

>>336347190
Game would have been much more exciting with factions. The pussy-ass Eorzean city states vs. the might of the Garlean Empire.
Let the pick sides, damn it. But no Jap players would rather have "co-op" and The Sims simulation without any meaningful pvp. What a waste of potential
>>336352190
Everyone would just join the Garleans anyway except for a few pussywhipped faggots.
>>336351684
It's the Final Fantasy universe bro. NO ONE dresses like that and wants to be comfy at the same time.

I usually just take the Chocobo Porter at Horizon over myself. Gives me an excuse to browse for a minute.
>>336352451
All I'm saying is you can't be comfy in some of the shit the people are wearing.
And Minfilias gear doesn't look compfy either.
>>336352320
The only players I can think of that despise the Garleans are posters on the official forums.
>>336352565
that's some advanced MMO shit right here.
>want to pace myself and enjoy new story quests
>don't want to be left behind with shitters by the time I get around to tackling extreme content
>>336352846
Don't worry by the time you reach 60 and get decent gear you'll face roll the old primals anyway and by that time new ones will be added so you can do those properly.
Or you just rush through the story AFAP and then create a new char with whom you can enjoy the story at a chill pace.
Been thinking of resubbing lately, quit in 3.1 cause I couldn't stick with a job, only made it to 54 on one and that was that.
Any significant changes made to the Jobs? What should I play? (I want a job to main and gear up gud).
Also when the fuck are cross class skills going to be dealt with?
what are the most retarded and immersion breaking names you've ever seen? I don't mean Sephirots, Clouds or Noctis'. Just straight up dumb shit.
>>336352659
The Garleans would be a bit more sympathetic if their warmongering hadn't been the thing that unleashed the Primals in the first place.
>>336353191
4.0please look forward to it.
There are several different ways in which the devs could deal with the ability/skills bloat and the useless cross-skill bs. One would be skill trees for instance or just traits. Maybe even materia.
>>336353350
>unleashed the Primals in the first place.
what, all of them? At least they're trying to fix it and not giving in to the illusion of peace like those damn Eorzeans.
>>336353562
All of the 2.x ones, yes. They commit to their genocide campaigns under the pretense that it's all the savage beast tribe's doing while accepting no responsibility.

I wouldn't worry. We're coming into a catchup patch soon, so the next ~4 months are a complete write-off.
Take your time; for you have an abundance of it. Just be there on day 1 of patch 3.4; due to all the temporal restrictions and currency caps in this game if you miss that crucial first week you may as well stop playing until the next expansion hard-resets everyone's progression.

Is there an alternative to one click per resource from a node or is it going to be like this forever?
>>336354845
>gear
That's one issue, but here's another:
If you're not there to practice the latest EX primal in week 1 of a patch it is pure torture trying to clear it later; and if you're not in those EX practice parties on day 1 making friends with other competent players then you're completely fucked when it comes to the hardcore raids.
I was studying for an exam when 3.2 dropped and I had to stop playing. Trying to find a Seph EX learning party was a nightmare (learning, not clear- we're talking hours of waiting and immediate disbands in the rare event they filled), and no one was going to take a person missing 3 weeks of Lore and a SephEX weapon into Midas Savage.
And I'd rather kill myself than pointlessly farm dungeons for the next 3 months so I can join learning parties for a fucking catchup EX primal.

>Needing a job guide
I bounce between NIN and MNK as I like, what's difficult about keeping your buffs and DoTs up and using all your cooldowns?
>>336355123
I know that but this set you get a certain one for being a certain class.
>>336357474
Stuff like this:
Which DoTs have the highest priority for reapplication if they'll fall off within a few seconds of eachother?
When do I save cooldowns and when do I use them as they become available?
Should I be using fuma shuriken under certain circumstances or do I always use raiton?
What's the best way to burn large groups in dungeons?
If the Warrior is a smacktard that can't keep the Slashing debuff up consistently should I take over?
Whom and when do I give Goad?
I have other questions as well but I figured it'd be faster to just ask you guys for a good guide recommendation to spare us both exactly this situation.
>>336358647
I usually do the combo'd DoT first and it's refreshed at about 2 seconds left, then the weaker one.
Use your cooldowns when you or another NIN apply the vulnerability debuff from Trick Attack.
No excuse for Fuma>Raiton unless you absolutely cannot get within range.
AoE DoT and spam your AoE attack if there are more than three enemies.
Yes, fuck him, you need your slashing increase.
Tanks > Other DPS, I usually throw it to them at around 1/3 their TP.
>>336359056
Thanks.
I'm gonna have to learn the sync-up of my cooldowns then if I'm expected to save them for trick attack funtimes.
Ugh fuck grinding out B4B on my alt though.
>>336358083
If you want the waifu set you need to be BLM.
>What if we put the most important cross class skill in the game for melee dps at level 34 of the most boring class in the game to level
>>336361172
Blood for blood isn't the most important, invigorate is.
Of course it's owned by the same boring class.
>>336361172
I recently started a new character and I had fun with almost every class. Then again I'm probably easily amused and also had only ever played SMN and WHM in ARR.
>>336361172
>go from 50 MNK to 15 LNC

>>336361847
If you time it right, you can align all your cooldowns with every other trick attack.
Obviously you're not going to waste 60 seconds waiting for either to return.
Don't be a pedant all your life, anon, it's unseemly.

>Obviously you're not going to waste 60 seconds waiting for either to return.

So guys been away from endgame since 2.0 coils, and this one random guy said he might maybe be making a static or some shit. My question is: How the fuck to gear up? I've been ignoring endgame completely since I came back to the game (maybe 6 weeks ago). All I have is eso gear.
Would you a retainer?
>>336363996
Lore, Eso, Midas Normal, Sephirot weapon, Void Ark runs for Materia V and upgrade items.
Beast tribes for materia IV and tokens for Relic weapon items.
>>336360010

Well that works out then
>>336363996
It's exactly the same except now you have a Crystal Tower-level easy mode of the raid to also acquire gear from.
