It’s been a weird time for me in FFXIV. Normally at this point in the patch cycle, I’d be neck-deep in relic items, working to complete my central three before the next stage (which I’d imagine will be sometime in May or June). I hit something of a snag, though: I disliked the Bozjan Southern […]
Happy Patch Week, everyone! We’re just a day into the patch, and I hope everyone has been enjoying themselves! For myself, I’ve cleared through the Main Scenario, finished the Eden storyline, and done the new Void quests, all of which I’ve really enjoyed! But I’m not really writing to talk about all of that today […]
So far, Patch 5.3 has been a real joy—it’s been wonderful to come back to FFXIV after a semi-hiatus during the extended period of 5.2, reinvigorated and ready to experience new things. Since this patch’s Main Scenario was much longer than usual, I’ve not yet had time to get through all of the main things […]
A little bit ago I began the ongoing process of figuring out the outfits I’m going to be using for the “canon” run of the Main Scenario I want to do through New Game Plus come 5.3. While I probably won’t have the full gamut of glamours done before 5.3, I want to at least […]
In Yoshi-P’s Letter from the Producer at the beginning of this month, we finally learned the release date of the long-awaited Patch 5.3. If history is any indication, we can expect this to be a big one in terms of story, since it should usher in the finale of the main plot of Shadowbringers—and if […]
I’ve been slowly working on getting Gunbreaker to 80 for ages now, almost exclusively through the occasional Leveling or 50/60/70 Roulette. Since Lynahra had the honor of taking the job through the Main Scenario, I hadn’t really wanted to take the job through all of the dungeons again on Alahra, and Roulettes were a pretty […]
It didn’t take long after finishing the write-up for my Honeshirazu glamour that I found the inspiration I needed to also do one for Woeborn. I’d been struggling to find a central body piece to work around that matched the weapon because, given Woeborn’s color scheme, it’s more or less a perfect fit for Lynxliege/Lynxfang […]
I’m still busy trying to get the last two pieces I need to complete the sets from Anamnesis Anyder, which are as elusive as ever, but in the meantime, I got a glamour itch a little while ago. Way back during my initial run through of the 5.0 Main Scenario for Shadowbringers, I fell in […]
After I put together my Neo-Ishgardian Dragoon glamour, I got really enamored with the new Gunmetal Black Dye and started getting glamour envy whenever I got on Dark Knight (which is pretty often, since it’s my main). Tanks naturally had the honor of getting my my first Neo-Ishgardian look, and while I have been pretty […]
Patch 5.2 is finally here! It’s felt like such a long wait, even though the overall patch cadence has been the same for years now. At every turn, Shadowbringers has left me wanting more in a way that I don’t think any of FFXIV‘s previous expansions have managed (and I’m already looking forward to Patch […]
