I FINALLY UNDERSTAND YOUR BLOG TITLE

[doozclops]

Peer-reviewed.

The best part of FFXV was when he said "it's warpin' time" and warped all over those guys.

[cursed-40k-thoughts]

Fucking LOVE that warpstrike claw. Idk how it works in game or lore but it like like an knight-sized hydra gauntlet and I dig it

It's just like... a big fucking claw. It's 50% more claw per claw. It is THE claw. We respect the claw.

Last song: ...I was at a blank and wondered what the last song I heard was aloud and then my BFF started singing Smashmouth's All Star really loudly behind me so I GUESS??

Favorite color: bright, celebratory red (otherwise, seafoam green or dark marshy green, or super bright sunshine yellow!)

Last TV show: uhhhHHHH Sousen no Frieren is the last one I remember watching. OH. I watched the newest episode of Heaven Official's Blessing on Wednesday! ...unless anime doesn't count, then I watched Doctor Who last Saturday. (i don't... i don't watch a lot of stuff... I do, however, have 5 books on my desk, two hardcovers, waiting for me to finish reading them. And I'm reading through Devil Venerable (webnovel) and The World After the Fall (manhwa) online. I need to... finish Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint because I stopped after 300 chapters, but then I opened the document and there's over 6.5k pages and I closed it again. 🫠)

Sweet/spicy/savory: Savoury, closely followed by spicy. 😄 I would have put spicy first, but this year was the first year I regretted a spicy dish for the first time in my life. 😰 Apparently Buldak 3x Spicy makes me feel disoriented and nauseous, I don't know who I am anymore.

Relationship status: I'm married. 8D

Last google: .... ................ ..........emoji copy paste 😭

Current obsession: my current hyperfixation is Mysterious Lotus Casebook, to the surprise of absolutely nobody who has seen me online the past half year.

Taggingggggg-- uhhhh @tunnelofdusk @lovesickfolly @nrodovskyone @hysteriamodes @solowinged @malachirooster @warpstrikes @teekettle @sarenely @rhystheceo and honestly anyone wants to do this I'm so bad at tagging people ^^;;

Prompto simply looked stunned for a couple of seconds. "What? Of course not, husbro. I'm gonna walk right back, Noct, this is just for science." Yeah, that made. Something like sense.

"I mean. You could walk with me and we can get Gladio to stay here and shout, if you want..."

Literally nothing motivated Noctis to do something more than someone saying they could just get Gladio to do it instead.

"...No. I'm staying here. Then, you're getting a warpstrike hug. Uh, what were you asking me to do, again?"

[flowers-of-tenebrae]

@noctswife rec'd:

MNK for Iris - which duh fits in-game Iris to a T

BRD as a dps job for Luna - cute!

GNB + RPR for Ravus - after rewatching the various Ravus boss battles I get where they're coming from.

Pre-Ch13 Ravus uses a long, thin saber and electricity powers; daemonic Ravus uses a broader sword and dark-like attacks. Thematically RPR, which originates from the enemy empire in FFXIV, could fit Ravus who joins the Niflheim's imperial army.

But after reviewing the actions and aesthetics of DRK and RPR, I'm more inclined to assign DRK to Ravus and RPR to Ardyn. Just looking at the purple ground sfx of DRK's abilities reminds me of daemon Ravus' attacks.

(Honestly, after watching Noctis' gameplay again I CAN see why one would link RPR to him too. It's the armiger attacks, the warpstrikes, the blue after-images (clones)...they feel reminiscent of RPR haha. RPR has a similar fluidity and combat aggression to Noct or Ardyn's style if you know what I mean.)

For WOR Iris, I think some fans have hc her using a greatsword like her brother. So it follows DRK would suit her older persona as a famous daemon hunter, in addition to MNK. (And as cool as RPR is, I don't think it'd appeal to Iris personally esp with the v******t deal.)

[ More FFXV x FFXIV thoughts ]

Excerpts from my drafts (Mild FFXIV spoilers ahead):

^I actually did consider DRK for Noctis 😄. Didn't finish writing Ignis' part lol

See my earlier post about SQEX's preferred jobs for the bros - keeping in mind the collab was released in Dec 2018 for FFXV before FFXIV: Shadowbringer's 2019 release. Read this earlier post re: why I feel RDM doesn't fit Noctis plus other users' thoughts on the matter.

Anyway, FFXIV jobs I'd assign the other FFXV characters:

Aranea - DRG

Iris - PCT

Luna - WHM / LNC (still early lvls, no DRG job stone) / BTN

Cor - SAM

Ardyn - WHM then DRK/RPR -> Ardyn & Luna parallels w/ both initially as WHM

Ravus - ?? DRK (idk Ravus fans help me out here)

Other jobs I think could fit:

Gladio - GNB

Hear me out. Gunbreaker (GNB) is all about being a protector or a guardian (FFVIII) and more importantly having someone - or some important cause like one's country or freedom - to protect. I think Gladio could relate to FFXIV's Dalmascans what with the loss of their liege and country due to imperial invasion. Also FFXIV's GNB was an art passed down from generation to generation and originated from royal guards.

BUT I think Gladio would prefer more traditional forms of weaponry and combat, which is why I picked WAR and DRK for him! WAR is self-explanatory (unga bunga) and who doesn't love Fell Cleave? SAM comes after he's completed Episode Gladio.

Noctis - FSH max lvl / SMN

The kind of guy who spends weeks chasing after ruby dragons or cinder surprises or whatever the fuck FSH enthusiasts get up to these days. I think he'd be amused by the name carbuncleplushy (iykyk).

My old rambly notes on VPR and SMN Noctis (viper and summoner):

@noctswife brings up a good point against RPR for Noctis + some thoughts on DRK and RDM Noct:

Ignis - CUL / SGE / VPR / DRG

I'll expand on my choices for Ignis since I didn't explain them earlier. Our FFXV light party desperately needs a healer, so Ignis steps up. Like Alphinaud, he originally was a strategist healer (SCH - scholar) but decided he didn't vibe with Eos/Selene or the angel aesthetic and switched to sage (SGE) /jk

I think healing via DPS fits Ignis and he can swap Kardia between Gladio (MT - the main tank), Noctis, Prompto or even himself. Plus lasers.

About DPS jobs for Ignis - NIN has the traditional Japanese aesthetic while I see Ignis as more of a modern kind of guy. VPR's ability to switch between dual blades <--> one longarm represents Ignis' gameplay really well imo, and it also suits Noctis who has the armiger at his disposal. DRG bc Ignis obv has the hops n jumps, esp in Episode Ignis.

Bonus: I think Ignis would make a fetching RDM! Plus it incorporates his ability to use magic and heal.

Luna - SCH?

@noctswife suggested SCH for Luna, which was great to read:

I think Luna and Noctis both having arcanist (ACN) - the prerequisite class to SCH and SMN in FFXIV - in common works narratively wrt to FFXV's story, i.e. Luna and Noctis are the only ones able to really communicate with the Astrals (excl. Ardyn). Whether it's WHM or SCH, I think we can all agree Noctis and Luna have that tank/healer dynamic going on!

Anyway ty to everyone who shared their thoughts on the other posts about job classes for Noctis. Feel free to agree / disagree here, it's all for fun! Or correct me if I missed sth or incl any inaccuracies.

Make me... a sandwich...And call me daddy.

Gladio arched his brow. “Somebody’s feeling bossy tonight. You really think you can handle me calling you Daddy? Or you just gonna combust and squirm whenever I talk about it?” he challenged, eyes dancing

[takara-kaede-chan]

This game is the most stable piece of work S.E. has ever come out with. <3

[autoacafiles]

Ok, I'm surprised to not see certain characters's hero names. Sunburst and Sablestrike? Devil trio? Artillery? Armorhide? Stiletto? And I know Glyph decided to go her own route but I'm curious as to her possible hero name too. And maybe Beta Maxx.

There's only so much room in a story for such things. Buuuut if you're curious...

Sunburst: Dragonfire

Sablestrike: Shadow Hunter

Starbreak: DevilRed

Lightningshock: DevilBlue

Warpstrike: DevilBlack

Artillery: Didn't participate

Armorhide: Roadbuster

Stilletto: Kunai

Glyph: Didn't participate, but in the possible case of a hero career her name would likely be something like Symbolia or Archaon

Beta Maxx: Timewalker?
