New role quest, interesting.
Also, classic UI mode, but it looks too bright and hurtful :D
Patch 5.4 notes: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...8c2f1094131070
I know MNK's getting changed but I don't really understand it until i go test it for myself.
Downtime boredom productivity so I created and uploaded 2 videos where I paired it with 2 anime tracks. Both of the cutscenes are the same, the first uses Dragon Ball Super's Limit Break x Survivor and the second uses My Hero Academia's You Say Run. I was pleased with how both turned out so just sharing the results here! Pick your poison depending on which franchise you're more familiar with!
People doing early math say Mnk damage overall is less but not greatly so. Maybe a couple percent. Mainly because of loss of damage increase on auto-attacks. It's up in the air if Tornado Kick + Increased forbidden Chakra rate will make up for it. One thing is for certain. Just having a Mnk is a 5% damage increase for your party without melee; Which in itself is pretty nice.
I'm conflicted as a Mnk main. Not having to worry about GL will be nice. However it also makes Mnk oGCD game REALLY busy. Essentially doubling our rate of Chakra gen endgame and potentially increasing it during brotherhood due to spells proccing it. Then add in TK and RoE is now a 3 charge 6 second True north. It will be interesting to say the least.
These Eden tiers suck. Bad. The first three are not fun at all. The first half of the final one is slooooooow and dumb. The second half of the final one is actually fun. But highly disappointed in the finale to Eden.
Yeah, that slow section is so annoying in the last fight...
Plus. I was disappointed that

The emerald weapon trial is BAD ASS and puts this entire Eden tier to shame

Well, the last fight was designed by Nomura, soooo
Seriously, you know Nomura freedom just like you know Amano freedom.
Amano: Purple lips, pale skin, gangly, gaunt appearances, wispy hair, corpse-like.
Nomura: Belts, insanely attractive models, obsessions with convoluted plots, contrivances, black attire and hoods.
So what you're all saying is that, me being a diehard fan of KH, I'm going to love this tier huh?

Well having finished all the new content of 5.4 (except Savage), I rate it thusly.
MSQ started out pretty good, pretty lame ending though.
Matoya’s Relict dungeon very fun, I like it.
Emerald Weapon fight was super fun, really like it.
Eden raids disappointing, did not like.
Void quests were super simple but were nice lore extensions so I dig it.
Like the changes to triple triad, especially the list showing me where to get the cards I am missing.
It was an okay patch, hard to top 5.3 but overall pleased.
Eden felt like there were cutscenes missing after the fights...
I'm still sad there was basically 0 FF8 stuff in the raids besides music and one boss fight. Why even theme it towards FF8 at all?
The Eden storyline kind of involved some orphans? But no time travelling witches ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Full theme of Shadowbringers:
