FFXIV Fanfest 2024 - Dawn Trail - Krile indeed Pictomancer

EEee Nutkin is his pet!!!!! PAINTER!!!!!!!!! Ok Pictomancer - A Relm Arrowny fights on I like how fun this looks. Am curious how far the paint medium changes with weapons HRothgal!!!!

-----

Let's see how far I managed mythril foil hat as the broadcasr goes on

Mythril foil hat disclaimer

-------

Shinjuku Elpis Domain Expansion this? Days of Elpis Lostbelt adrift - LB 7 this?

Somehow TIMEY WHIMEY BALL Set right what went wrong because someone(Alexander/Tycoon/Omega/ pick one) was playing with time and an entire Allagan civilization(because someone else was playing with time and streams collide) got stuck in time!!!!

The original citizens can't leave their city but others can visit them

How advance is Allagan or Elpis past? Ghost in the shell - In view of the locked in time thing A bunch of Allagan had tried to replicate creation magic and cross the time streams and time lock happened. Allagan brains in biological shell (a la Doga nd Unei) to wake up later and see how world progress but the original citizens can't leave their city Garlemald had wanted to come here for their tech but Zenos happened

Young lady in white is key to this but is sealed in there. A Riona to seal Ultimecia?

Why is the word "Levin" in used? Jenova is coming Ultimecia is also coming because of all the magical people and timey whimey magic Laguna Laguna All your Cids combined and futuristic timeline happened!!! Dangit Nero!!!! What have you done?! The bespectacled Miqo'te over there is involved in solution nine somehow.

------------

What are the odds of Hylnyan going short Hrothgar(176-180 as with her OC Cat shpeshifter) for future town? Unconfirm if she's half Hrothgar or not on her father's side, mainly because she's already taller than the average Miqo'te.

Free Fantasia yes? maybe? Be taller than Thancred and start combing his hair like mother cat or something. To be the one carrying him instead This --> a Hrothgar NPC with a thing for Thancred and carrying him under her arm or slung over her shoulder because she can run faster than him. And they are fleeing from very big trouble Yeah I ship him with Miqo'te, Au Ra and Hrothgar women because he has a thing for tails.

Garlenmald rebuilding on the moon? Rebuilding civilization that Meteion destroyed? Help them makes sense of what had went down?

Dyes - Further minion replication of clothes - OC's colour scheme to come mayhaps~~~~ Thanks Yoshi-P!

----------

Obligatory mention of Jack Van Burace and Hanpan. I would squee if Nutkin ends up being being a grappling hook to rope across some cliff/broken bridge or something

Hylnyan ends up being Beastmaster if not Viper to avoid stealing Krile pictomancer thunder _during MSQ_

Pictomancer looks wicked cool but Hylnyan's weird aether is slower to effectively manifest for Pictormancer during MSQ. Main BRD-DRK dropping into GNB for solidarity

FFXIV - Tank / Healer / DPS Dynamic

••••••••••••••••••••••••

{Something that has been on my mind for a long while now, since I've been playing between North American and Japanese servers of FFXIV. I often escape to my Japan alt due to the behaviors I witness and experience in North American servers that render me quite uncomfortable, and I want to address it.}

(Please bear in mind that this is NOT ALL of the community, but still quite heartbreaking I feel this way about the North American players as of recent.)

Tanks - Do not assume ever that your healers can take big pulls. This does not make them "weak" or have a "skill issue" as many English deem it. No, this means the healer is either still learning, or has a limit to how much they can take. You must be mindful on how much your healer is able to do, and be lenient on them rather than scolding them and calling them "bad healer". Because, the fault is not the healer for failing to heal, the fault is the tank for being ignorant and inconsiderate of their healer's limitations.

Healers - Do not ever run ahead, or pull for your tanks, that is a one-way trip to finding yourself in trouble. If your tank is "not pulling enough" that is not the tank's issue, it is your issue. A tank pulls however much they feel they can handle, your job is to adjust or request lighter pulls if the pull itself is too much for you. If you are unsatisfied with the pull, don't be a healer and jeopardize yourself and the entire party.

DPS - Same as healer; do not run ahead or pull for your tanks. Do not take over for the tank if they are not doing justice in your satisfaction. You are a damage dealer, you do not have the proper mitigations and are second-rate to a tank if you are melee/physical ranged DPS. Do not make your healers work twice or thrice as hard because of your recklessness and impatience on completing a duty. Magical ranged DPS are just as guilty of these, their damage ratio is greater, but it does not earn them the right to pull for their tanks.

Teamwork, respect, and patience is everything, having an elitist mindset and comparing apples to oranges, is the worst way to go about playing FFXIV. Even if you migrated from another MMO, FFXIV is NOT the same as your other MMO. Stop turning every little thing into an issue.

I'm happy to say that with the newest additions of Paladin, Monk, Ninja, Sage, and Machinist, my FFXIV job stone shaker charms are now complete through all Endwalker jobs! I've been working on these since 2021, so to know that I only have Viper and Pictomancer left feels amazing!

You can find them on my Etsy!

in like a day or two i can get back to leveling ast thank the fucking twelve for that

[dnangelic]

on one hand i talk a lot about dark being able to just stealth his way through dangerous group gatherings but like if it really came down to it he could just cast mass fireball. which is. plenty reason enough not to really fuck wit him i think

[the-evil-pizza]

i just saw a video about a guy reading xiv reddit posts and in general i agreed with most of the things he said because to most of them that people should be chill.

But he also said that people that do not do ultimate probably won't go out of their way to learn their jobs and i'm like, wha.

could not be me, i have anxiety disorder

[hermeswol]

ok i made the caster krile summoning circle

[cidnangarlond]

I like how with regular tomestone exchanges it specifies "magical ranged dps" like yes. as opposed to magical melee dps, a totally real category we have

[seaseren]

Thinking about combining a couple character concepts. A padjal girl born into a prominent Gridanian family, who were very proud to have a padjali daughter and happily gave her up to the Fane, although they often visited her and maaaaybe spoiled her a bit more than they were "supposed" to. When Chiaki and their mom came to Eorzea, the two kids became very good friends, since the Padjal had always been at least curious about the world outside the Twelveswood. After the Calamity, however, she became more and more frustrated with the state of Gridania and how little she could actually do, chafing against the rules and restictions and how she would get in trouble for arguing back against her elders, even when they were wrong. The last straw was when her mother, who had been impregnated just before the Calamity and lost her husband and other children in the disaster, gave birth to another Padjali child. Although it destroyed her mother to give up her baby and last family member, she had no choice but to peacefully give up the child. The padjali girl got into an argument with the other padjal, who probably viewed the situation as "sad, but nessecary", and ran away to become an adventurer, hoping to find a way to actually help people with the Elemental's Blessing. (She considered asking Chiaki to come along, but at the time they were still way too sick to leave the care of the Conjurer's Guild). Unfortunately for her, the adventurer's life is perhaps far less rosey and full of do-gooding than she initially hoped.

Now I just need to come up with names for her and her mom... (I think Chiaki ended up keeping her mom company a lot. She lost her kids, Chiaki lost their own mom, it makes sense).

[wlwaerith]

FFXIV 7.0 job guess - Painter

Mythril foil hat disclaimer

Relm's painter = TMNT Donatello named after a painter + FGO Foreigner Hokusai fights with a brush + Magic class for bringing painting to life

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are name after painters (biggest hint and thought line for me)

Relm is a painter

Donatello fights with a quarterstaff

Foreigner class Hokusai (or his daughter Oi in this case... long story) fights with a brush!!! and her moves are really pretty!!!!!

That Stormblood raid - Sigmascape 2.0

Paint Emote

Finally quarterstaff without going Lancer!!! Alternate weapons, mop, fountain pen, pencils, brushes, broom, regular quarterstaff

Or quarterstaff is the melee job so..... covering base because Donatello

Can't just quarterstaff without stepping on Estinien's territory

My job mentor can't be a teenage ninja painter koujin or a qiqirn (Splinter) Is there a meme lord on the Dev team?

Job quest involves a young painter girl

Some Orthardian guy fixated with koujin soup

Do I have to shell out all my TMNT and FFVI memories just to guess this?

Stormblood got added to free trial because Teenage magic painter koujin's homeground in Tamamizu?

The Artist Alphinaud finds a magic paint brush and muscled in on the new job..... Well magic ranged

short of a location with Renaissance vibes for human painters quartet, Orthard folklore takes over with magic paintbrush found in Tamamizu? And we Donatello

Is very colorful job but I only have Bard for reference but see Enshrined Byakko lutebow for for inkblot reference

Depend on your brush for sumi ink black, oil brush colors, watercolor, watercolor pencils(?) pastel color stick (or makeup brush-ish)

Dry color vs wet color differences? I never Splatoon or Mario paint so I can only Urushi-e guess from Hokusai.

Return of the Four Lords

the ink kraken that we fight is not Ultros covered in ink, nope not at all

a sneaky reference to Ookami pops in because is Orthard after all.

Alternate dual wield brush and palette version

Dual stance - Little brush and palette switch to big brush equipment pending

Uhhh... Leofard's Granddad is one of the job quest people?

Can you paint with all the colors of the wind~~~~~` Is a dynamis job emotions given form

The totally totally off grid guess that it combines Geomancer because of sealing talismen (draw boulders, splash water, cast wind, throw flame)

Van Gogh, fellow servant from FGO also fights with gaint brush too

Hokusai is the Relm we have all along!!!! Quarterstaff -brush WANTS!!! There should be another fighting game character that fights with a brush (not exactly Ookami) but Hokusai is the most recent one in my memory because I'm playing the game currently

Dang it Exarch!!! Summon Hokusai!!!

FGO mobile version for Foreigner Hokusai fighting style

Arcade fighting game version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3p5kROCRjLc

The earlier one that I can't remember Samurai showdown - Morozumi Taizan.

No I didn't forget, she isn't in my stable of servants. But Van Gogh(long story), who is a little less fancy but brighter paintwise than Hokusai

I haven't played Splatoon so I can't comment.

--------------

Post reveal - Leonardo is the dual blade viper combined to become quarterstaff Donatello. the fusion is unexpected since FFIX memories fuzzy. but the Zidane!! - Painting Pictomancer palette version bigger brush - a Relm referenced

[eorzeashan]

minor spoilers for EW magical ranged quest but if I didn't already have an ishgardian knight character I originally wanted to alt again as a Vaindreau who wasn't turned into a blasphemy; like the sheer concept of a man forced to bear the will of the entire Heavens Ward and the KOTR was just so metal that I'm honestly kind of mad all he became was a phantasmal dragon...thing. I really thought he'd go somewhere besides crying vengeance but it speaks like the remnants of their grudge, so I can't be that disappointed.

I also thought we'd get to meet him as a character and there were so many things I wanted to ask him when he woke up in the hospital confused and alone; I really would've liked the idea of him finding redemption and a new life but...EW has the same theme of simply killing those with transgressions and giving them no "after" for the sake of those who live in the present.

That being said, I keep coming back to his concept so we'll see if I cave eventually (though going through msq again incites in me primal fear).

[stirdrawsandreblaws]

done studying for the day, need to work on ko-fi projects but my attention and desire keeps reorienting to wanting to port the horrible ffxiv ttrpg sheets to roll20 (which i can't even do bc you need a pro subscription to make custom sheets, so this is Pointless Ruminating)

seriously though, these sheets are... something.

this is such a clusterfuck lmao... And Yet i really wanna make a vtt sheet for it bc i can't afford my xiv sub rn either, and being able to rp with friends and do Some of the game things in my precious little downtime would be nice

(and yes, we can technically do that without sheets, but. heem heem whimper i wanna use them for conflict resolution and enemy stat blocks, and also referring directly to the in-game abilities is fun for me idk idc)

[blushouyo]

also. I hope the new melee dps job is fun bc I don't really vibe w any of the current ones gameplay wise

[iiroiiros]

"LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOO!"
