FFXIV Random Praise Thread: Time to melee RDM

[BerenTebogo]

I tank Acheron and BD as MRD with 4700 hp. Bads will always bitch.

[OWS_Tonx]

As a hoplite/Lord warrior (with DL accessories) I constantly tank Bone Dragon because it is wtf-easy. Even his phase 3, while stronger, still doesn't kill me. No one has ever called me out on it yet...I've actually tanked everything except KB and Acheron (is that the last guy? whoever the last guy is) just fine.

Also I don't have Provoke yet lol.

that move in phase3 is is hp% based iirc

and yeah I can't tell you how many times I take off defiance at the end and just go to town

[Taint]

Allagan flanchard and shield from t1. Both first time drops for my group and both of the drops I've wanted from the start.

[OWS_Tonx]

Saw my first pair of allagan tank legs yesterday and lost em to the PLD wearin mytho already while I'm still rockin' CT.
I know mytho is better for WAR, but fuck spendin those 800 somethin points. Although at this rate I may as well with patch being so close

Static group?? If so that PLD is a dick.

[OWS_Tonx]

Yeah, static lol

[Insert picture of WAR wearing Allagan legs + AF2 feet here]

Not pretty. Need vanity now.

[OWS_Tonx]

If it hurts your eyes any less I'm wearing allagan feet so it doesn't look that bad

[Drac]

Have yet to see a body and shield drop. Definitely farming the full set when they unlock coil, I actually like the look of it. Got my belt yesterday finally

Surprised to learn that some "sound" agro mobs will remain non-hostile if you walk instead of run. Saw this behavior sort of in 1.0 with the treants at... Crimson Bark? Wherever the moogle fight was. Helps immensely for some annoying mobs in Sylphlands, and I think it can even be done in some dungeons (Cutter's Cry it worked on slimes I'm pretty sure).

Also still weirds me out that skeletons and XI-crabs are sight agro now.

Yup saw this last week too and I got both, then got a healing ring from T4 which was shitty compared to what the healers already had. Was my week to lootwhore.

During coil last night people noticed that the brightly lit blue parts in T2 actually ripple like water when you step on them. Never noticed it did that before. You could say it blue my mind.

[Raldo]

I like to think of it as all the water that shoots out from Ballast (why does Ballast look like water anyway, that makes no sense)

[Day]

wiki be saying

A compartment within a boat, ship, submarine, or other floating structure that holds water is called a ballast tank. In a vessel that travels on the water, the ballast will remain below the water level, to counteract the effects of weight above the water level.[1] The ballast may be redistributed in the vessel or disposed of altogether to change its effects on the movement of the vessel.

[Pruviant]

If you get hit by Ballast (and Fluid Aura), it makes your clothes wet for a moment. That's nice attention to detail.

[Dathus]

No Coil last week due to screwy schedule made me a sad panda for no drops. Lootwhorin' this week with Caster head and Striking ring. Also, lulz that the Coil head, replacing the CT head, didn't even give me an iLevel boost from 73.

[Kaixin]

After perusing through that tank thread on the OF and seeing his signature I just realized Edalborez is his character Zeroblade backwards. And here I was thinking it's some kind of Spanish name. What a moron.

[Seravi Edalborez]

And here I was thinking it's some kind of Spanish name.

More common than you might think.

[OWS_Tonx]

that's actually cool, I didn't notice until you pointed it out >_>
