    yup, people want 4-5min speed runs (namely for animus). Considering the hundreds of runs you need and hours it takes, you'll want 4-5min runs over 8-10min ones (unless you want to take that masochism to whole new levels).

    Was really looking forward to the animus change, hope it is sometime not too far away next month. As their excuse of "not many people do animus" answer is somewhat obvious if they look at what they made available already ingame >.> (namely levi clears and t7/8 clears)

    Unless you were a tank. Those pulls can eat up an undergeared tank.

    Fixed. It's that sort of thinking exactly that pushes every other DPS out on their ass. For every group I've had of BLM+BLM finishing in that time I've had BRD+BLM finishing in 9 and MNK+SMN finishing in 7. It's not as easy as composition.

    The awesome looking PvP gear has got to be the biggest waste of artistic resources yet.

    Atleast your gear set on main doesn't look as bad as my main that will have a black dildo on the head... (although that would give a new meaning to the orz emote...)

    Of course you need good players, why even point that out? All I'm saying is that BLM+BRD and BLM+BLM are simply better at killing the trash quickly compared to other DPS. It's the only reason why good players go with those jobs, it saves time and you farm twice as fast. I don't even know why we're talking about bad/shitty players here, those simply copycat whatever the better players do without thinking and simply spread the issue.

    I think I let my natural mistrust and hatred of PF groups bleed into this discussion. Whoops.

    And yet they're still fucking marked Unique. What the fuck. I can't even glamour Hats and Spectacles on an individual DoL/DoH basis now.

    They are marked unique cause you can only have one of the item.

    I don't understand what you mean.

    Any single piece of gear can only have one glamour attached to it. This means that you cannot glamour the glasses to look like your WVR hat when you're on WVR and also have it look like your LTW hat when you're on LTW. The only way to achieve that would be to have multiple glasses, each glamoured to look like different things... which you can't do because it's unique and you can only have one of them. That is the complaint.

    The opposite, however, is possible now, where it was not before. i.e. you can make your DoW/DoM gear look like the glasses. That was in response to an OF thread about it - as always, you can blame the OF.

    I dream for a day when they have a dye system as expansive as Guild Wars 2... But adding some bound armor like Darklight sure helps, at least for some jobs and the overcomplicated vanity system

    I'd love to know what kind of strategy people use to do it in 5. My 2x BLM runs tend to hit around 6 minutes using the best BLM AoE rotations. So it must be something else that shaves the minute off, I don't know.

    On one hand I'm happy I play BLM for the speed run stuff but on the other I regret it when it comes to shit like Coil 2 where it's not fun. But as my FC has gone casual this patch I don't care right now.

    So you'd really want to carry around 11 of those things?

    I get it, maybe not 11, maybe only 2 or 3, and you'd at least like the option. Just...would you really want to earn several of them?
