Downside of migrating to another site is trying to relocate DRK wank material.
Allagan/Ironworks-style needs to make a comeback. 😔

And so does Early Victorian/mid-1800s male fashion.

Sprouts agonizing about being in Malikah's Well with lvl 70 AF gear or Scaeven's gear, & being apologetic the entire dungeon.

Meanwhile, I'm theorizing that Rampart 1st pull and 30% 2nd pull is more consistent than 30% first and Rampart 2nd, and I find them perfect to experiment the hypothesis.

my co-tank: "We'll need a tank."
*me switches to WAR*
co-tank: "I mean a good tank."
*switches to PLD*
co-tank: "Thank you."

Experimentation in dungeons for the sake of melee uptime can lead to great discovery. In the Yuwe Field Station, for example, you can kitchen sink the proximity marker and run the risk of losing 1 GCD to the traveling AoE. Better than losing 3-4 GCDs because your range skill doesn't reach the boss.

Fun dungeon tip: For parties without WHM, tanks/melees can stun the Bygone Roadripper in the Underkeep over halfway through of casting Run Amok. This will prevent the mob from dashing away from middle of the hallway, turnaround and cleave it.

Fun dungeon tip for DRK: In Smileton dungeon, you can cast TBN, pop the mine that spawn in front of the final boss and not get a vuln or a paralyze. Time it well, and it'll break with the boss' auto afterwards. This way your melee will always have uptime. 👍

For the next two months, I shall return to my ARR roots as a Scholar in savage.

But Jian, didn't you start as a gladiator?

Well, I wanted to start as DRK, but that isn't a thing.

Nothing's more unhinged than receiving a melee card during P2 intermission on FRU just so we can consistently target the big crystal 1 GCD earlier.

Me: "I should learn how to blind prog as a healer."

Healer friend: "Just go into mentor roulette. Healing with the players in there will give you a good blind prog experience."

ngl, she's right.

Perfect day to clear FRU. (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧

I feel like Shadowbringers should be the cut-off expansion where tanks should be expected to pull at least two packs of mobs regardless if they're new to the dungeon or not. Because once you see how dungeon mobs are laid out in HW & SB, expect the rest of the expansions to be about the same.

My static are peer pressuring me to play MR with them. Not because they are in need of a playmaker type player. No siree. It's because they want to bring out my old league self, and listen to me spew out some savagery.

Pls no. I rather keep my toxic words contained in Frontlines, mates.

God, I hate it when ultimate progression splits up into two prog points. We might prog P5 faster than progging consistency in CT.

Me: Man, I suck at this game.
Raid leader: But you're a penta legend though.
Me: Oh yeah, but I still suck.

This was posted at one point when Arthur's VA was announced, but a friend asked why would anyone want to date him when he's got a giant skana up his ass, and I'm like well:
