Ritual

I've pre-ordered it, launch day bugs make for some seriously funny moments and I to have been waiting years. Should be tons of fun.

When you can ERP whilst in the middle of a fight with Titan.

Just in case anyone's a bit confused on their type or feel like they fit some other types traits to, this is fairly common, once you start learning about typology or personality typing in general, think of it like a cake, the top layer being are you I vs E, layer below is what's your 4 letter code, INFJ, ESTP etc, then it's learning what those letters mean and then lastly it's learning the cognitive functions. Everybody use all the functions, Ti, Te, Si, Se, Ni, Ne, Fi, Fe, this is why you'll see yourself dipping into other types as well, but it's your top two that say what your type is, this is why people in the same type aren't necessarily anything alike besides a certain way of thinking and acting. Also, try not to get too hung up on P or J, these are kinda added on people are a bit unsure why, Ps are messy Js aren't, it's kinda accepted that something like this is mostly due to upbringing as opposed to an innate trait.

I've been getting ISTP - ESTP on every one of theses tests for the last few years now, even cognitive function test slap me with one or the other, it's easy to see tbh if enough time is spent near me. Bruh'a is INTP, Charlotte ISFP, Ludovoix is ISTP and Kayne is ESTP.

They only marry them, from the description, it says reproductive mates are chosen from a lot, this I think kinda implies they just put their names in a hat and pull out an Au Ra female and males name, now they go make Snu Snu and I assume it's the same for the horses, though ofcourse a bit more of an Auri themed lot than the hat idea. So... do they know how to ride a horse or not? Oh gods, I am going to have such a hard time taking X'aela seriously... Depends on the... type of riding you're refering to... I'd assume the regular horse back riding is something they practice from an early age... the other kind? Well, as with all civilisations I'm sure there are a few... creative people lets say.

Nope, gotta talk about them Goro. "The Goro believe horses to be perfect beings, and each male and female, upon their coming of age, is married to a horse of the opposite sex. Reproductive mates are chosen by lots." I need to make a Goro just to see how people react when they find out I'm married to a horse.

It seems they're trying to probably make WHM a little less useful for speed runs, which is strange, (spoiler in case you don't want WHMs new moves spoiled.) They seem like speed-running moves to me, but they probably want WHM to keep the "pure" healer motif to and not have them too effective.

I'm curious as to why we have new job quests at 50 but we get our first new skills at 52?

They said awhile back that they didn't like the idea of people taking "dirty" screenshots, so I'd assume it's to deal with Miqo'te twerking and other things, maybe even a slight adjustment to hide the upskirt that happens to? I'm not sure on the last one but I think it's mainly the twerking.

I wouldn't say I'm overly excited for it, but I am looking forward for just more stuff, more levels, trials, dungeons, raiding all of it gimme it all!

Awesome info so far really appreciate it! Just wanted to clarify a few things about special forces as a whole and that's they are classed as elite units, not all they do is very secretive either, SAS members say SAS stands for Speed Agression and Surprise, these element were used for a couple of operations such as Operation Nimrod (Iranian Embassey Siege) and Operation Barras. The Police gave the Military control over Nimrod at 19:07 and the SAS attack at 19:23, using breaching charges to suprise the enemy along with gas and flashbangs, they basically manhandled all hostages and took out 5 of the 6 terrorists, the raid lasted only 17 minutes, with OpBarras they flew in to the middle of an enemy compound using Chinooks and fast roped in. DEVGRU (ST6) also somewhat follow the model of speed and aggression, even 1st SFOD-D (Delta), Americas most secretive unit follows these rules on some occasions, Marines and Rangers are also conidered special forces by the US Military. A special force is a group that undertakes special operations, covert and overt ops, Dragoons as clarified by Franz, being a unit specifically trained to kill dragons would be considered as a type of elite or special force by todays standard, by what I know of Bloodsworn with the information by Erik and Kale, the leves asking you to hunt certain people, I can assume they take on missions like this themselves, an operation that is given to an elite unit because maybe the leader at the time feels the regular people can't do it, could be classed as a special operation, making the force by default a special force based on todays definition. Liking the disscusion on the thread, sorry I haven't replyed for a bit, just been taking in all the info. Also it's fine if it goes a little off-topic, it could open up new thread ideas for other people.

Actually I had thought about the Dragoons, but I heard you can be a Dragoon by just killing a dragon, anything beyond that I haven't heard anything about them, though I would think they could be seen as SFs of Ishgard.

Are there any units within the GCs or a part of the city-states that are in someway equivalent to modern day SFs? Like the SAS, SEALs or some of the more common SF operators like the Marines or Rangers? Operators that are highly trained for certain roles in warfare and quite secretive about which unit they're a part of? I would think in a universe like this there may be something similar to our SFs.
