#MSQ progress

[blade-that-weeps]

As much as I’m enjoying catching up after such a long absence, the downfall of working your way through older content like the Shadowbringers MSQ is that it’s old news and you have nobody to excitedly gabble about it with. I’m sitting over here having my tiny little mind blown by the revelations everyone learned years ago lmao. Great stuff though, powerful writing in this expansion

home sweet limsa.

i hate every change they made to my fav healer class so i'm going back to my first. already ranted to fc mates but might make a forum post cause astrologian is literally no more fun for me anymore.

epic trans bunny boy.

ran the first dungeon blind with fc mate. paladin clemency came in clutch when healer died with boss at 30% hp.

The Lightwardens

I am slowly making my way through Shadowbringers, finally, and I just completed The Lightwardens quest!

Finally, blessed NIGHT. The constant brightness was wearing on me, Valskandyr is a creature of darkness, and he looked pretty awful in that lighting most of the time lmao. I’m excited to continue! Although I feel like the Exarch would have gotten a slap for pulling the whole thing without informing Val/getting his consent.

How cool was this though? Splitting the SKY OPEN, I love it. Poor Alisae though. I adore how the game has a lot of story telling that isn’t shoved in your face, that you have to pay attention to in order to follow.

[verflares]

mankinds first hero and his final hope or whatever it is he said. whatever.

[alackofghosts]

sigh. i really have to come to terms with the fact that i can't do alts and should just ng+ the whole thing instead... i barely remember anything about hw at this point besides ysayle and my immense love for every single dragon. i miss my dad. and vidofnir.

[crystal-verse]

Today I give you more of them. Tomorrow? Who knows

Zuri finally reached level 90 tonight - here's her Dancer AF gear! She also got the Tiny Troll minion drop from the first run of a certain boss in a certain dungeon. ;)

[bunsandstuff]

I finally got her to my happy place, now I can do those gposes ♡

But allow me to gush first. This is of course spoilers for Shadowbringers if you've never played it

Like omg Iove how confident he sound here. Like "Yeah please, you know I'm gorgeous." Like sir please! He's changed so much in those two years and I love seeing that right out the gate. He's right at you in appearance but also personality. The writers were like yeah we could tell you his time with mischievous pixies for two years has changed him, but let us SHOW you. I know what's to come later, but this moment is one of my favorites. That's why I love him, he's so well written.

Retainers feel like they're adventurers from a different MMO. Mine keep coming back with shit I can sell for hundreds of thousands of gil and all I'm paying them are 2 measly ventures at a time.

And they come back with shit that drops from raids and rewards from reputation grinds, and I'm just like. Did you beat up Titania all by yourself? Do you also have to grind FATEs to bring me this wine bottle? Do you have access to some sort of mogstation that's letting you find me these dyes?? Why aren't I paying you more??

Because like. Ventures are so easy to get. I went insane and got like 10k of them one time and I'm only DOWN to 9,000 like 8 months later. At this rate of attrition I won't need to buy more again until 2030. What are you doing with these ventures that they're so easy to get and yet you do Herculian tasks for me just to get 2 at a time?

And then I realized, oh wait, I do great labors all the time just to get like 10 of the endgame Tomestones at a time and I need several hundred to several thousand to get anything worthwhile.

I wonder what they spend their ventures on. I hope nice things, and not just like. A miserable endgame grind.

I'm still alive and well. I'm just very intense about learning my new main job/class apparently. I spent so much time yesterday just resetting content whenever I committed a mistake to force myself to practice

[katewalker]

btw i reached lvl50 as a weaver and i'm almost there as a botanist/miner/angler and like no one told me there was a whole new world of content once you're there!!!! i was so happy to have completed my resource note book for botanist/miner, but now i have to pay attention to the local time??????
