This is the video I made the .gif from:

Think someone had linked it on fb awhile back and I had a good laugh about it so made it my sig.

He may be able to hunt and catch mice that are underneath the snow, but what does the fox say?

Mogbook -> PvP-Book -> Allagan Book is probably the most useful order. Ofc you lose some stats like Piety with the PvP-stuff, but well....Piety is not stronk enuff ^

Thank you Ksandra!
I love the expression on the fox's face at the first part of the vid when the narrator says, "The fox..". Still can't believe how he just comes out with his mouth full because it looks so haphazardly playful with his butt sticking out of the snow.

@3.141592 your link leads to a listing of forum threads, which post were you referring to pls?

Its honestly hard to tell if he was serious or trolling because of the edit to his post. I think he was serious and then decided to pretend he was trolling. Still, it is hard to imagine he would wear crafting gear.

**Korialstrasz** · 2013-12-24 22:03

Oh god he's

Well, banned from the official forums (again). Merry Christmas to me!

No email saying why yet though.

Edit: Ahh there it is: Posting aimed to create a negative impact on the community or its members.

It was originally a 3 hour suspension, which went away and I could post for like 2 hours. Then they suspended me again (I didn't actually post in that time), giving me a 10 day. I just got the perma ban email tonight.

I can't find the thread (maybe they nuked it), but somebody was complaining about housing prices and how "nobody has 100,000,000 to spend on a house" while also bitching that garuda feathers were dropping in price as a result, to which I said:

Luckily even the most expensive small house doesn't even cost half that. Conveniently, all of the items created from the feather can fit inside of said small house.

Yeah yeah I know, house prices are crap (not arguing that), but if you're going to complain about something, at least know what you're complaining about.

Some comic genius has necro-bumped the "Swiftcast is required for WHM thread".

Some pearls of wisdom have emerged from people without swiftcast in the last couple of days:
- Wiping is part of the journey (™)
- Wasting Swiftcast on Raise or Ressurection is a complete waste since revival debuff is already affecting the raised person. Especially on hard fights, it is better to restart.
- If ppl had skills in endgame, they would not need a WHM to cast swiftcast+raise

**Korialstrasz** · 2013-12-30 01:47

46 likes in favor of unlocking swiftcast, 168 against it right in the first 2 posts. These fucking people man, I sometimes wonder if the entirety of the official forums is just a collections of trolls all trying to troll each other.

All my what. People arguing between the usage of DD (damage dealer) and DPS.

Now, however, I'm being told that for the hard mode dungeons and for extreme mode primals and, especially, for Binding Coil, I MUST have Provoke.

My question, then, is why is Provoke so necessary? And, if it's that necessary, why is it only GLA/PLD that receives it through straight levelling? In the past, when there's been a discrepency between the classes (Hallowed Ground being used to avoid mechanics, 20% damage reduction VS 15% heal bonus), Warriors have received a buff to more or less equate the two classes (Holmgang will not drop below 1HP, heal bonus up to 20%). Therefore, if Provoke is absolutely necessary for tanking, why does the WAR not receive a similar move?

Arguments like this and took vs. character hurts my head.

This physically hurts. Highlights

the Sch mogtome is better to use till you get the coil book because the relic book has spell speed and determination where the mogtome has crit and spell speed.

...

Royal Boots from CT are BIS. You lose 2 MND and 2~ crit but get Determination instead of Morale compared to the i90 PVP boots.

(response) Not really, HQ Spruce pattens are better

...

Just NO. 4 MND is like nothing, what gives? 8 HP extra heals per hit, lol? With a crit build, you can hit at least one crit per ten heals.

And this train of thought needs its own quote bubble

I was wondering if : Vortex Ring Of Fending
Vitality 15
Critical Hit Rate 11
Determination 11

will or won't be a better ring than the allagan healer one ...

...

Honestly that isn't a bad ring at all for a SCH.

...

It might be, all stats we needed in end game dungeon

**TheDirtyHobo** · 2014-01-01 12:30

DD vs DPS is one thing. I have a preference for DD but have gotten to the point where I call it DPS when talking about this game just because that's the terminology SE use themselves. However, toon isn't even an argument, it's a fucking sin and I truthfully, unironically, wholeheartedly think that anyone who uses it is a raw embodiment of cancer and the dregs of human society.
