Off Topic Discussion Megathread

Spent quite awhile getting moogle tomes, while I watched YouTube, and did other things on the side (The Praetorium). Took the whole day, but I suppose this is it for ShB for me. I'll need the day's rest after all those runs, but I'm sure others are going to feel like today will take forever. :p

Logged out next to the Labyrinth of Ancients entrance. Want to be in Mor Dhona to start story soon, but will be 3 hours behind the front loaded peeps, cause I'll be at work till 3~4 hours after Early Access starts.

I'm pretty happy with my accomplishments during Shadowbringers. Though I hope to get back into raiding again - at least for EX Trials - in Endwalker.

I don't know how long it'll take me to get through the MSQ's, though I usually take my time to talk to every NPC in order to soak up all the new lore.

I'm running through the MSQ at least twice without skipping either time. First time for myself, and then second time for the continuation of my LP. I more or less just view it as a catalogue of the story, and my ruminations on it. It's been a really handy index though, for on demand cutscenes and things during Lore discussion.

It's not all encompassing though :/ I just didn't have the means or time to get the LP alt into a Baldesion Arsenal group(though I did all of base Eureka on him). Didn't really show off any Savage, just the ARR Extremes and Coil with an unsync'd person beating them up for me (which was vexing in and of itself in a small way. I was grateful to have the help, but just... there were way more wipes than there should have been). I even got the Deep Dungeons in there, into pretty deep floors (180 for PoTD and 92 for HoH). Got all the Role quests and Cylva into it. Got several job stories into it. Nice little slice out of the game, if a bit cumbersome, clocking in at 355 videos ranging from 20 minutes to an 1 hour+ each (think the average is probably around 50min).

gah, I knew I should've levelled up my crafters throughout playing the game instead of waiting till I've got the amaro first :/

Well I think it's time for me to leave the forums until I am done with the story.
Not that I don't trust you guys but there are trolls here too...

So see ya later and I hope you enjoy.

Imagine leveling crafters. I've gone 5 years without leveling crafters, and don't intend to start anytime soon. :cool:

I leveled GSM and CUL in ARR, then just sorta let it slide. Leveled GSM in HW. Then let it slide a long time.

Leveled GSM first in SHB, having skipped it in Stormblood. At some point last year I got bored enough to level everything else to 80 with Leves in 100 leve spurts. EZ PZ. Especially the ones that got to reap Facet quest reward EXP, hooo boy. Leveling crafters is the easiest thing in the game to do other than login.

Ya know what?
Same.
I'll see you around.

Have fun with 6.0 everyone.

I'm inclined to think that there won't be a risk of spoilers until the expansion is available for download. That's the point where I intend to hide away from social media until I'm done with the MSQ's.
