Final Fantasy XIV Hot Takes

[Jkap_Goat]

I hate Ystola, like I understand she's the poster girl for xiv, but so is shantotto and she wasn't around the WoL in FFXI all the time.

what I love about FFXI in every expansion is that you meet someone new, new people on your journey and when the expansion arc is over, they go their separate ways, you do sometimes see them in other expansion cutscenes but that's it


sorry Im tired of seeing the scions every damn expansion, especially Ystola and her dry character.

I also loved that the story in FFXI wasnt about ME!, it was about other characters, like you are important , the story tells you straight up but its the other characters like lilisette or Lady Iroha

also this is my favorite thread

[Jkap_Goat]

lilisette, i love her character and WOTG was my favorite storyline



arciela, story protagonist in Final Fantasy XI: Seekers of Adoulin



Lady iroha



also the great thing about the storyline in ffxi i wasn't getting praised for every single thing i do like in ffxiv, its very annoying

Getting rid of Machinist's Bishop Turret back in Shadowbringers never made sense. Why the heck would I summon Queen Automata on a pack of enemies when it can only attack them one at a time!? And to add insult to injury, Bishop Turret was given back, but for PvP! Come on devs! You guys could have at least given back Bishop Turret for PvE after you guys gave it Dismantle back!

That still really cheeses me off. It also doesn't help that when people asked they gave us a flamethrower and went "here's your AoE back, bro. :^)"

Which is crap, because Bishop is an all around better constant AoE attack than Flamethrower, because if you move, Flamethrower turns off. Meanwhile, even if we have to reposition Bishop, building the gauge to do so is a cake walk! Meanwhile, Flamethrower is stuck on a long arse cooldown...

Res potential from DPS need to be significantly reduced. Put it on a 120s timer at least.

RDM and SMN should not have to pay the rez tax. Their DPS should be increased until it is near the level of BLM.

Yes. Absolutely YES!
And I say that as someone who mainly played BLM. Let people play what they enjoy instead of feeling like a training wheel you ditch once your ress becomes unnecessary so you can push kills easier.
