unspeakably cruel for them to make alisaie a healer if you go into duties as a dps. this is NOT what she needs she deserves to cast explode your shit and blind everyone for miles 10000000 times per second forever and if you dont let her do that she'll cry

(COUNT)DOWN TO DAWNTRAIL — day five: endwalker
if you need a push, I'll be right there behind you. do not despair! you are not without allies. upon the souls of they who have sacrificed themselves to pave the way for peace, we will never abandon our cause. while it is true that man succumbs all too often to anger and avarice, he may yet overcome his baser instincts through the forming of bonds with others. such victories are rarely won without sacrifice. but the prize is worth the price. and we for our part are glad indeed to be able to welcome friends both old and new… from tragedy and sacrifice, we rise to greet a new dawn. a future shaped by the choices we made, in ways we could never have forseen. strong art thou, mortal. look to the light within, that you may continue to serve as a beacon to others.
#i’ve been fighting with this one for days i’m done i’m finally setting it free#thinking about the end walk and the strength it took for the first steps up the path alone#and how much love (for eitherys. for her friends. for everyone who’s paved the path here and in general life) that gave her that courage#the most meaningful moment of gameplay in the entire expansion to me!!#and TY gigi for helping me with an idea + azia for holding my hand through posing tantrums <3#(count)down to dawntrail#dani plays ffxiv#game: ffxiv#oc: d'alia liveq#lavampira poses#ffxiv gpose#gposers#miqo'te#endwalker spoilers

MiqoMarch Day 08 - Fav. (Side) Job
When she's not running around as Ninja or Summoner , Arsay's next choice is the lance. Being bestowed a source of draconic power by Midgardsormr moments before his slumber, and knowing how to channel the powers of Bahamut with dreadwyrm trance, Arsay's power as a Dragoon rivals that of even the former Azure Dragoon. With that said, she'd much rather use her polearm to hunt monsters.
#miqomarch#miqomarch2024#ffxiv#miqo'te#arsay kain pose pog??#an attempt was made#I didn't want to repeat myself two years in a row lol#do love playing drg though its so fun#praying it doesnt become too different in dawntrail#in my canon Arsay never does the lancer or dragoon lv 30-60 job quests#She gets Estinien to teach her some basic moves while on the road trip to drivania#one cause she thought it looked fun two because its hard to back stab a dragon without going full shadow of the colossus on them#Shes pretty good with the lance too so she does use it on that first nidhogg fight#then she continues hvw as ninja/smn#she doesnt have any of the dragoon part of the dragoon kit until she goes through the great gooble library with y'mhitra#where they learn about dreadwyrm trance and arsay discovers her surprisingly strong connection to bahamut#y'hmitra: wow thats weird didnt you say you werent around during the calamity how did you connect to him so easily#arsay: so there's this massive hole in the ground in eastern la noscea-#When its time to end the dragonsong war for real this time in the patches she picks up the lance again and enters trance mode#She does get a job stone finally after that#its a gift from aymeric#a symbolic 'you were part of the troops' type thing#oh and later during stormblood arsay does go through Those job quests#because of course shes helping a little dragon friend#and during the omega raid series when Middy saves her life just before he goes to sleep again he gifts arsay a scale to carry with her#a bit of dragon aether to tap into when she needs it !#anyways thats arsay dragoon lore thanks for coming to my tedtalk#WOL posting#Arsay Nun

Countdown to Dawntrail: Heavensward
I don't remember much of Heavensward save for "how high can I fly and why is it taking so long to reach the top?!"
Why was I speeding through HW? I don't know. The Vault held little meaning because I never felt the connection to Haurchefant that others did, or with any NPCs for that matter.
Perhaps that might change in Dawntrail. Perhaps.

Countdown to Dawntrail: Scions
At first, none of them seem particularly impressed. She gets the idea that they've all heard their fair share of lectures on the greater good and the grand visions the speaker seeks to achieve.
The moment the Antecedent speaks of the gift they all share, the "gift" that had been haunting her for months now, and provides an explanation for it, her guard begins to fall.
It doesn't take long for the other two to swear their allegiances, heartened by her words. She, however, still feels a discomfort in her breast that prevents her from immediately joining them.
It's an awfully big burden they're being asked to shoulder, after all. Is this really what her chosen path had been leading towards?
Their eyes rest on her curiously, expectantly. Looking upon her with something akin to hope.
She can't remember the last time anyone trusted her with anything like hope.
"I will go whither the wild rose blooms." The words are strangely frightening, but she says them earnestly.
Lilyana squeals happily as she claps her hands in delight, and even the rather-surly gladiator has deigned to smirk in her direction. It's Minfilia's grateful smile that captures her attention though -- makes her think maybe these Scions have something going for them after all.
the prompt is a couple of weeks old i know, and it's a lot of shots, but the idea of capturing this moment (that i've actually novelized lolwut) took hold of me and wouldn't let go. maybe i should look into adding the dialogue or narration in the shots themselves with those dialogue templates. hm.
#ffxiv#final fantasy xiv#ffxiv screenshots#ffxiv gpose#countdown to dawntrail#long post#(other dangerous ideas this brought on: going through ng+ as her canon jobs now that those and her design have been locked down#initially i played all the way through shb as whm#i didn't decide that since mid-HW [post-vault natch] she retroactively had been drk until 5.1 or 5.2)#(i don't think i'm actually gonna do that cause there's just not enough time. but friends are doing that. and friends give me ideas. :') )

wuk lamat being a teenager makes so much sense with how she's written and also it feels kind of ridiculous how unclear it is that she's that young!! like while a lot of the complaints about her character are extremely shit and completely unfounded (transphobia towards her va in particular) i feel like a lot of the good faith criticism of her writing is focused on her more childish moments which like YEAH. SHES 19
#her and the twins are on the opposite sides of some sort of spectrum despite being the same damn age. 30 year old fetus x2 versus giant baby#wuk lamat is such a good character though i love her so much ;-; real wukheads get it#ff14#ffxiv#playing through dawntrail

Playing ffxiv is partly just looking at your character and thinking they're pretty/cute.
of course this padjal can and will hurt you so calling her cute is probably something people shouldn't do
#Ori plays#dawntrail spoilers#7.0 spoilers#ffxiv spoilers#DT spoilers#final fantasy xiv spoilers#Final fantasy XIV#FFXIV#slowly going through DT with her#as I a also level up alt jobs on Serina#very slowly level them up#but I gotta level up the trust somehow#as I listen to bee my honey on repeat#that song took a hold of me and won't let go

legit i'm seeing people call wuk lamat shit like mary sue and shonen protagonist so i've decided i'm her stan. I already loved her but now I'm going to love her even MORE.
come on, insult her more, it will fuel my love for her. it WILL become a raging bonfire of an inferno, and yall will pay the price for it.
#dreamy speaking#lmao also if we're reducing characters to bare bones archetypes#erenville is a basic bitch tsundere and i still love him so whatever#yall are just cowards and weak#yall didn't go through launch 2.0 quests and it shows with how spoilt yall are about msq#also i haven't played dawntrail at all yet <3 so if you spoil anything i'm blocking u LOL

Stealing this image from twitter and bringing it over here, because holy shit, some of the clowns I have been seeing talk about the game lately.
#Novice Network is a toxic waste pit right now#filled to the brim with returners who think they’re hot shit talking about ‘If Square really thought a cutscene was important they would hav#e put voice acting in it’ and other shit like that#‘I just skip all non voiced because the voiced cutscenes recap all that boring shit anyway”’#no they don’t???#Is THIS what a new Expac brings out?#because it’s genuinely dreadful#do you even enjoy the game at that point? Complain about fetch quests complain about the dialogue complain about the writing quality#why not just go play a game you like???#It’s getting to the point where I just have my chat log closed most of the time#not leaving NN because it WAS really nice during the post-Endwalker patch cycle#when mostly only people who actually liked the game (????) were still playing.#but the amount of toxic attitude returners I’ve seen in there lately is disheartening.#I hope it’ll come back down in the following weeks#once they’ve burnt through Dawntrail and decided the game doesn’t have anything for them#and they’ve sufficiently wasted their time#instead of just… taking it slow and taking in the world and the sights and the story……..#I’ve heard that Dawntrail is basically ARR 2. Which. big if true.#Because we could use that.#A return to form#with the new systems and developments in the game#bringing the story back down a little bit and reining it in#I am VERY excited to get there some day.#but I know that these people I’m bitching and moaning about aren’t thrilled#(honestly that just makes me like it more)#Anyway#point is#if you’re playing a game why the hell aren’t you engaging with said game?#What’s the point of skipping to the end as fast as possible only to get annoyed when there’s no more content?#This is exactly the problem that I’ve heard ex-WoW players complain about with regards to their player base
