Sounds like they abandoned the Ambuscade Gear +3 concept.

But if the event is a hardcore 18 people alliance, it will alienate people even more.
The good gear distribution from the alliance era was much more skewed towards the elite linkshells. Today you can get five joes and get the job done.
I think reading the interview questions might help
Interviewer: Please tell us the outline of what the new Limbus will be.
Fujito: New Limbus will be implemented as a non-occupying battle content that multiple people can participate in at the same time. It is designed to be something that you can play solo whenever you want, and we are proceeding with the production with no particular time limits for staying. Also, there are already many contents that can be played in a loop like Ambuscade, but New Limbus is designed to be more fun the more people participate, so that we can respond to requests for "I want to play with more people" and "I want to fight together".
This is favorable content for LS's like mine that regularly did 18man omen/aeonics/dyna that could not incorporate ody and sortie in our LS event schedule due to the strict limitations on jobs and party size. I'm all for it.

Which means they listened to feedback about the garbage 6 player limit in their last two events.
Look forward to the next Limbus installments when we gonna bring exciting 6 man contents, with the real deal of rewards.

Not new but Im watching the review of Saya no Uta.
Some games are pretty popular in the edgy community.

On the other hand. A pub that required you to show up with 18 people every time would go out of business.
Nobody anywhere said 18, that'd entirely in your head. FFXI hasn't been alliances only is over a decade.

I'm envisioning it to be laid out like the Promys or Escha zones, and when you pick your difficulty, it sets you or warps you to an area/map with monsters of the same level range, rather than it just being one large zone people can roam around.
They showed a bunch of different mob types, which should mean literally every job can participate here and make progress. Thinking glorified Apex/Locus camps with your choice of what to kill (or maybe it requires killing several different mob types to get mats to upgrade).
Side note: BST about to make a comeback here for sure :3

I'm picturing something like abyssea + encounter flag. You can pop NMs, but nobody outside your group can interact with them. Guess they didn't explicitly state whether they'd be DI-style fights, though.
They did say no NMs in the first update - those to be added at a later date. That is at least how I read the YouTube translation, anyways.
|
|
 |
|
So probably Apollyon = Relic and Temenos = AF?
I believe it was stated in the Freshly Picked that it was the opposite.

Good to know about the tomahawk thing vs v25.. this would explain why ws dmg always felt lower than what it could be, thx god i recently got relic piece to enhance tomahawk
Tomahawk and Savagery 5/5 is amazing and standard. The ultimate burst "get wrecked" combo. 50% Uptime not even counting resets also

Going back to the topic at hand. I'm not sure how I feel about alliance. Keeping up with a static is already hard enough nowadays.
Six man content can die in a fire, we already have too much of that and it's been killing this game. FFXI is a social game and like social food is best enjoyed in groups. The issue with six man content is that you need six and only six people. By making content doable with six but not restricted to six you open up larger social groups to participate. In practice this means most of us can bring more friends and people who can't make consistent playtimes while still clearing the content.
Try to think of FFXI like going to your favorite pub or hangout. Now imagine that place only allowed in groups of exactly six people. If five of you showed up, can't come in, if seven of you show up, someone has to leave. Now that place could be the most amazing place ever, so amazing that you are forced into finding exactly five people who are always able to make it after work. It's doable but is painful and makes you kinda want to find another amazing place to visit that doesn't have a six person requirement.

Little update, started working on moving all the different bars into their own settings sections. First thing I did was work on the party actions, here I've got them integrated and matching with my XIVParty layout (props to Ragnarok.Tylas for that sweet addon).

Sensei Can't Teach Me About Love
I have just finished it.
Its a standard romance story, with the “highlight” of featuring a taboo romance: between an older woman, and the teacher, with her student, a 17y boy.
It follow most of standard troupes in romance, with the “extra” of having the teacher constantly blue balling the boy, because despite she already agreeing with this romance, she also decided to draw restrictive limits they can approach to maybe make her less guilty of doing something questionable to the eyes of society.
But despite using the taboo as a driving force for her to resist the temptations, the consequences of this choice is barely explored throughout the story, and that results my overall veredicto for this story: uninspiring.
Clearly the author used the taboo to make his work standout a little over the competition, but that is about it, he didnt seems to have the courage or even the skills to explore further societal and moral consequences of this romance.
There is no last longing conflict. There is no rethinking if they are doing the right thing. There is no doubt if the relationship will survive in the future. They never thought deeply if maybe their romance werent more than fetich. Maybe they are only together because of the thrill? And once there is nothing wrong, will they still see each other with same eye? Also they have a hierarchy between then. Even despiste of that would their love be a healthy one? Would it still survive when they are in equal footing?
The story is only about them flirting while hidden, barely doing more than a hug, only waiting 3 years that is the time the teacher decided it was “fair game” to consume their love.
It is not a bad read, it just feel like empty. The goal of waiting is so dull that the story only followed the first of those three years, and the other two were time skipped probably because it was decided the story couldnt go further.
A last observation, it annoyed me how the author hadnt courage even to tell the beginnings of the romance. Because the teacher always being uptight and right, for her to accept a relationship with her student surely would have an intense moral dilemma untill she could made her decision.
But no. The story began with both already together, and it was never explicitly told how they ended up together. Lack of courage, lack of skill, the couple simply was together from the get go amd that is it.
5/10

Is this the one where you go the frontier station, or the one where you go to one of the bivouacs? I would just check both just to check.

haven't been on Asura in forever, but they wanted like $15-20 paypal for a seg run at one point lol, think you're underestimating what people will pay considerably.

Well of course they do
They want to make $4/hr
If they go normal speed, that drops to $2.50/hr

That said, I also include X-hit gear. In that one slot (the dagger in question), given all the other gear and buffs, STP just fares better on elementals than Path A.
Huh? STP is Path-A.
Anyways, I think fastest way to get Shard B cleared is probably going to be a combination of Triple Shot in full TA/STP set with SAM roll and Quick Draw to pull. Elementals stop to cast when you aggro them, so you lose time running in and engaging them or waiting for them to run to you. You can easily kill one elemental, QD another, RA > Leaden > RA > Leaden > RA Leaden or whatever. You get TP so fast that your melee swings don't really matter. You can time it so you do both (swings and shooting), but even not engaging, with the right set, you get instant TP from the right Triple Shot set and can be done faster than the timer on Triple Shot.

I assume they bot everything on your char, putting it at risk though. Most of them speed/maint for nyzul, too.
They'll tell you they don't though!

Does Winja have access to offhand TP Bonus club? If so then you can likely get decent-ish numbers, otherwise your better off with Maxentinus and Black Halo.

How are you all interpreting this?
Quote: The concept is that it does not occupy an area
I'm interpreting this as them saying they're going to instance it (previously called Layered Zones), so each party does not occupy an area as they did in OG Dynamis and Limbus. Sounds like you select the monster level when entering and you get warped to an instance similar to Ambuscade, no?
Is that how you all are interpreting it as well? Have they said something else that implies something else?
I believe it means the exact opposite, that players do not occupy the instances and instead are all together in one map. Abyssea, Escha, OG Dynamis. I believe they are remodeling the old Limbus zones to be more compatible with those models. The real question is how the monsters and eventual boss's behave? Is it the usual party/alliance claim mechanic or the DI style everybody and their mother claim mechanic?

isn't there some potentially abusable synergy between diamond aspis and maxentius?
After the 10th chain you should hit magic burst cap of 40% from maxentius alone which should open slots for focusing on other stats, be it matt, int, occult accumen or what ever. What about amb axe? You get more wsd for longer steps of skillchain. Dunmo if it's regular wsd or all-hit wsd though. Still could stack lots of wsd

I do solo elementals in B for shard as COR, have all 3 Rostam, and personally found Rostam B to be significantly faster than Rostam A, especially if you have a lot of Multi attack in your TP set like DA, since Follow-up synergizes with that too on top of synergizing with Store TP.

Thank you :)
Yeah I got legendary status, so Idris is on track. But I checked with a LS friend who has Idris how many "support" tasks he has under completed for Coalition tasks. He has 6.
I only have three, and those last three I cannot complete. Looks like I might not get Ygnas. :/
