I agree with most everything you just wrote except for two points. First, for someone to want to get better at something they need be intrinsically motivated to do so. Seeing higher numbers on a...

Isn't one of the primary points of the argument that you can use the parser to push others to play better? Consider that in dungeons you cannot send private messages to each other so any...

Hello.

I just discovered this forum and all the juicy speculation within. I did a writeup on Red Mage a loooong time ago back toward the end of 1.0 that I think might be relevant here.

You can...

Something else that strikes me:

Every other part of the coil through turn 4 has an explicit need for two tanks at some point during the fight except for turn three. When you look at the possible...

Something I discovered today that I don't think anyone else has mentioned yet:

It is possible to skip killing the second golem in turn 3 and proceed below the second electric barrier without...

When I think about this the only instances where this really makes things clunky is instant cast emergency abilities, Benediction being a prime example. I have no issue managing my damage instant...

Some things never change...

As a fully leveled gatherer I would prefer it the other way. :3

4 hours = no thanks.

There are also some interesting class quests about Alagan ruins and their leftover technology. I think the leatherworkers quest and the miners quest both talk about them.

I really enjoyed those...

Fixed. Thanks for the heads up.

I remember an interview from about a year ago where yoshi said Dark Knight might come from gladiator. Which, in all honesty, makes tons more sense than MRD. Just something to think about.

I also...

Just thought I would post here to bring your attention to Crystal Knights.

love the coffee.

I guess even darnus has trouble getting up in the morning. The raven is a nocturnal bird after all.

I actually really like this suggestion, especially the fact that it adds a second job for the fencer class. The upsides/downsides of using the brands are interesting and I like that the particular...

I think that was made be a player around the same time that Summoner/Arcanist leaked out.


Thats a shame. Many hours of work were put into this. Essentially I wanted to design a class that...

color me impressed

I am bumping this because it deserves it.

Ok sorry for the delay everyone. This took a lot longer than I originally anticipated. but now i present without any further ado my take on leviathan.

Nope, underwater in a bubble. Players can see leviathan swimming outside, above, and below them.

Hagarra is an interesting parallel. I hadn't thought of that. If anything its more like Thaddeus because of the polarity stuff. but neither of those fights really fit with what I have built (and will...

You remind me of the babe...

Seriously though, Goblin King would be a lot of fun to design. I will have to look at that some more. I am imaging this goblin pulling in bombs half his size,...

I get where your going with that. I have a problem with super out of the box fights though. they are fun the first few times but after doing them over and over the gimmicks get old fast. The best...

Don't worry too much about how they fit in. Just detail the fight. I am mostly curious to see the kind of expectations people have for complex battles in the game. If you have an idea go for it. I...

I have some pretty cool ideas for Leviathan. I might do him next.
