Healed AV this morning with a sprout tank who never onced used a cooldown, and did big pulls. Amazingly he never died, but I also never had MP.

I... totally misread "cooldown" as something else. <_<;

It is time once again for that biyearly event where I purchase the new expansion through steam, then spend an afternoon figuring out how to get my product code from steam into mogstation. And that's just for early access. Then I'll have to do this again in a week to activate the actual expansion pack.

I pray to Tyr that Comcast will not do what Comcast does best at the, shall we say, best of times, and I pray to Freya that I will be able to ride into battle looking fucking fantabulous on the day named for her.

New mounts! \o/ I assume the Level Checker is from the EW Superfate boss, and the Paissa will be a random GC loot box drop.

I was going to guess Paissa was cash shop. Then I remembered how ugly the Paissa is, and decided it'll be earned in-game. <_<

---

Ugly?! Paissa is love, Paissa is life.

---

It's a bipedal lemon meringue pie with soulless eyes that take up half or more of its face.

---

In the unlikely event that I ever die, I request to be reincarnated as a Paissa.

Dawn of the Final Day
-24 hours remain-

Full patch is out on all platforms! About 10GB total. At least on PC, apparently PS4/5 have different patch sizes.

---

I so need a new computer or SSD after this. My laptop is down to 8.7 free gb on its 120gb ssd, all because the dimwits who set this thing up put Windows on the wrong drive.

---

Random dc followed by 4000 queue. Looks like Im done for today. Managed to do the first dungeon, was pretty good! Even with the squish values for exp still seem overtuned?

I dunno about overtuned. Without the half of a level from the WT journal, my War would still be 83 and change a few quests after the level 81 dungeon. Then again, besides the WT journal and MSQ, I did some fates in Lab and Thav just to unlock and use those riding maps, so that accounts for 1.8 million exp.

Meanwhile, I am considering leveling Whm on the side just in case the tank queue, for whatever reason, decides to not be instant. =p

---

You can still 1 shot most lvl50 extremes with final sting blue mage so I think they didn't nerf average damage to health ratios in the stat crunch like everyone was afraid of happening.

---

Completed the first trial. That was great! Also I'm surprised that's what the first trial was.

---

If not for the combination of server congestion and having to go to work today, I'm still needing to run the lv83 dungeon, which I imagine is right behind you at the moment. Thinking to my predictions for EW, I can only say, "I guess it's the dad, not the mom."

---

So I managed to play for about 2 hours this morning. Dog begged me to walk her. So I did. Came back to the title screen. Was literally unable to even queue for about 3 hours, then when the login server was fixed, queues were never below 4k, and 2002 errors happened every 5 minutes. =|

At least tomorrow is a weekday so queues should be better? And it'll be like 20 below freezing tomorrow, so I'm not walking my dog when she comes begging lol

Your dog was possessed by an ascian trying to keep you from saving the world!

Sweet, I can fly in zone #4, and have completed the maps of #s 3 and 4. Now if only I didn't have to work today, because servers will be crowded again by the time I get home. ;-;

sage is 86 now and i'm around the middle of 85 msq now

first trial thoughts: this shit is almost on the level of hades/shinryu ALREADY and we're one fucking primal in??? god tier game

---

Yeah that fight was great! And I haven't even seen the second trial yet. And thankfully the last 2 trials and last few dungeons haven't been spoiled for me yet. x_x just got to the first level 87 quest before I logged out for the day. I spent the day leveling Reaper, got it to 78, then decided to take a break from Bozja and do some MSQ.

---

I was finally making headway in the msq, since I'd called out from work today, and the whole of Gilgamesh dies, epically.

---

I was in queue for 4 hours, played for less than an hour and Gilg crashed. I did like 5 MSQ today. If that.

*comforts*

Meanwhile, I have reached the lv89 trial.

---

am right before 87 dungeon i think

game is good

---

I'm enjoying it, but good lord the server issues are ridiculous.

I also think I'm right before the 87 dungeon. Literally right before the server died Hermes transformed into a big bird monster and flew off with Meteion.

---

yep u there

do it with trusts for sure

I'm RIGHT after 87 dungeon (but im also on sage)

---

I'm in the middle of the last zone. Connection and queues willing, I intend to progress some more tomorrow after I run my errands.

---

am 88 now, not in last zone though

why is this game so good

zenos is still fucking fantastic, fourchenault is at worst a nuisance but in general fucking fantastic, the whole elpis part was fantastic for giving me more emet material, god this game is so good

---

Got to 90 and Im right before the second trial, but I played for like 9 straight hours so Ill do that and whatever comes after tomorrow. DRG is fun at 90, its more or less the same as 80 but with new animations for everything, and one new oGCD thats basically a second gierskogul that doesnt have a timer and becomes usable by doing your full rotation.

---

I've beaten the msq. Then I queued for Trials Roulette . . . and got the 89 trial. So I will be avoiding that roulette for two or three weeks unless they patch in the iLV minimum for leveling trials like they did for dungeons back in StB. It's not a difficult trial, but people will people at the peoplest of times. So now, anyways, I need to unlock any endgame dungeons and raise my tomes so I can raise my iLV.

Also leveling the other jobs starting with Whm, which is currently 81.
