Snakes?

[Caro178]

You need to check your debuff for poison (green puddle) or gaze (orange cone). You'll also see I or II next to it which tells you if you're on first snake set or second snake set duty. The snakes themselves will gaze from either cardinals or intercardinals when they spawn in two at a time and the second two always spawn directly opposite from the first two. If you're a melee or tank you'll need to pay attention to your assigned flex partner. If your debuff matches that of your flex partner your gaze/kill priority changes from either clockwise starting at N cardinal or counter clockwise starting at NW intercardinal. Make sure you don't greed your gcds too much or you'll probably wipe the group. I assume this question is only about Snakes 1. Hope this helps!

It's not just that they've been doing this since FF1. The source for A LOT of FF1 stuff was Dungeons and Dragons.

Because that's ironically what FF1 was. The devs' electronic version of a DnD game. In all its incredibly glitchy glory.

And like... "Shouldn't the East be more culturally sensitive?", from Japan? You serious?

We're talking about a country who stayed isolated from the rest of the world for centuries (Sakoku).
We're talking about a country whose spin on Buddhism involves looking at a woman and calling them "downgrades" and "Blood Impurities", which on its own goes against what Buddhism is all about.
We're talking about a country whose ethnic background involves what's now modern Korea, yet Koreans were considered barbarians until very, stupidly recently.
