Thread: 2.3 findings/discussion    

More HP but still keeping the same ATT/DEF would be nice. Literally was just on my way to a Naul that FC member claimed and it was zerged down by 4 randoms who couldn't hold their shit before I even got 1 hit off.

Only other alternative I can think of is initially balancing all these mobs around the assumption 8 people will fight them. From there, for every person added to the enmity list, apply a scaling damage reduction so if 50 people show up, it'll still take roughly as long as the initial 8 would've needed. Making the fights themselves last 7-10 minutes should be enough for most in zone at the time to get to wherever and get credit.

So I found Stinging Sophie, East Shroud (30,17).

5 AN, 30 Mythology, 10 Soldiery.

Something along the lines of that would be great. If I recall correctly, Daily Quest-mobs in WoW simply gained HP for each additional person that attacked them. Worked well enough and also took into consideration that some people might show up late into the fight. It was somewhat annoying if you soloed the mob down to 10% and someone else showed up and wound up healing the quest mob by a substantial amount, but it beats finding nothing but corpses.

Overall, I like the system, though, it's a lot of fun. Only wish they limited FATEs needed for the daily hunts to one instead of two.

Macro icon for companion skills finally working, about two updates after they said they were implemented.

Shame /companionaction is still a non-functioning command.

Wind-up Onion Knight from 4th (bonus) chest on last boss. Does not consume weekly roll, everyone in all alliances can lot it. I rolled a 98~

Also worth noting onion knight is unique/untradeable so no resale value.

Now I do not feel so bad for falling behind in my crafting gear.

Lol'd at someone at SE thinking it was a good idea to have a victory fanfare at the end of Tam-Tara HM.

Ramuh feels really shitty compared to the other primals. I think it's a mix of the arena not being dynamic at all and the music not syncing to the fight. Feels more Ifrit tier and not cool like Garuda/Titan/Leviathan.

Hard or Ex? Because Leviathan Hard was also a borefest, unworthy of any thrill, yet EX was really fun the first 20 times. I haven't fought Ramuh EX yet, but I'm betting it will have more mechanics. I spent 80% of the hard fight not moving and just casting.
