lunoc

I constantly undercut people by like 1 gil on the markets. It makes me glad your actual name isn't on any sales because I'm pretty sure I'd be receiving a lot of angry tells otherwise.

As a Monk, I always just alternate between both combos from their proper positions. I know the buffs and debuffs are good, but I don't even think about them. The attacks do good enough damage on their own, and my timing of reapplying them might be somewhat inefficient, but I don't even need to think about what they do. I'm doing damage and applying buffs constantly. My biggest failing is probably forgetting Touch of Death, but I think one of the last things I did before I stopped playing last was put Touch of Death on face buttons instead of a dpad so I'd incorporate it into my rotation better. Honestly, FFXIV has spoiled me, it has the best controller support of pretty much every MMO I've ever played. I can't go back to KB+M now. Having buttons in specific places rather than a big cloud of letters and numbers is so much more intuitive for my poor brain to handle.

I care about raiding in that I want to do every instance at least once but. Even at this point I still haven't touched labyrinth of the ancients or binding coil. It feels like I'm missing out on something, but I can't imagine it being easy to scrounge up the people to do it nowadays considering it's not really like mechanically worth it or all that impressive to clear the early raids. or at least that's my impression anyway. At the very least it'd be a very long queue during which I can't really do anything ingame. More time to watch shows on the side, I guess???

is it ok to vent in the vent tent about Your Own Damn Self? I feel like I'm kind of a newbie despite the fact that I've got a Monk at level 60 and fully caught up on MSQ. Because it's like. The Only Class I even have past 50. My next highest is Paladin at 42. I have no real experience except with That One Weird Outlier DPS Class. I almost never tank or heal unless I'm with friends that I know and it's been a long time since we've been able to get together in-game. I find it so intimidating because the whole run basically depends on the tank and the healer having their shit together, like, Mentally? And I just feel like I don't have that most of the time. How do yall get over that and just. Tank/Heal anyway? I know the rules for tanking, more or less, but even the most basic healing meta still kind of escapes me and I can never figure out how to even begin to arrange my hotbars for it. It also probably doesn't help that I've been a diehard controller user since day one despite being a PC player. edit: im trying to make my posts less like horrible walls of text, im so sorry.

I might be a bit late to the party here!! But my skype is luminoc (all lower-case) if the group is still going. I also don't mind chatting 1 on 1 with whoever but I'm not actually available in-game until about the 17th. Make sure you let me know in the invite or through a PM or something that you're from the forum so I know you're not a bot! I'd love to get some RP connections and ideas going before I actually land in Balmung. I might be a bit shy and awkward right now though so sorry in advance if you catch me on a weird day.

It's such a drag doing Absolute Beginning Of The Game duties with inexperienced tanks who haven't even learned how The Video Game works yet. I'm talking like level synced GLA in that one combined helmet/chest armor popping Sprint at every possible opportunity, circling every target in the dungeon like a buzzing gnat, and I mean EVERY SINGLE MOB IN THE DUNGEON, so my poor MNK ass can't get a decent positional attack off. I won't even start on expecting them to hold enmity because let's be honest if you think you're supposed to use Sprint and actually avoid attacks manually there's no hope for this run. I'm not even mad at the newbies, they're probably just kids who're trying to have a good time but it just goes against everything I've learned about how to play this game smoothly. It's so weird to go from ilvl160+ content to bouncing my forehead off of clams on a completely different class I've decided to start leveling. It takes forever and it Sucks. And I can't even get mad because what kind of jerk would get mad at it feels bad and i'll be happy when I get every job to 30 so I never have to willingly decide to go into sastasha/copperbell/tam-tara, etc. ever again. ALSO another weird thing that happened to me was in haukke manor with a NIN, they dropped a limit break on that one trash group just before you head into the cellars, then said "Don't LB on trash folks" or something like that. I asked if was having a stroke and one of the other people in that group said "lol u mean like ur stroking ur wiener" like ok thanks cool bye it's one of the only times i've ever willingly left a duty it was so surreal and weird. In hindsight it was probably kinda shitty of me to do but I was having a weird head day I guess anyway this has been my general summary of weird shit that put me off in ffxiv thx for reading bye im sorry :cactuar:

I haven't really started solidifying my character as an RP character yet and to be honest I have no idea what to do. I have a pretty basic low-angst backstory with a family that lives outside of Eorzea and isn't really relevant currently. Lunoc is just a simple adventurer looking to do some good in the world. I kinda want to build him up as I go, but I'm worried I'm not really gonna be able to come up with anything interesting once I get into it. I still have like 2 and a half weeks before I get back into the game to think about it I guess.

I haven't actually done any raids or extreme trials yet, they're kind of a huge commitment with Ultros's queue times. But other than that I've done most dungeons once or twice.

Hey guys. Kinda new to the whole RP thing, and I don't currently have an active subscription but I thought I'd jump on here in preparation for my upcoming transfer to Balmung. My character's name is Lunoc, but I usually just go by Noc personally. I've already completed quite a lot of content, up to date on the MSQ and whatnot. I always wanted to RP as my character but I never really had the chance on Ultros. I don't really have much set in stone for Lunoc as an rp character, aside from some very basic backstory that includes a less-central role in the canon ARR/HW storyline. I plan to be somewhat casual and lighthearted but serious in my RP, working my goal of gradually advancing in all the various professions into my IC motivations. I love this game a lot and I want to get more immersed in the world of it, y'know? I am a little bit worried that my character's rather un-Lalafell name would be accepted, but I'm hoping to be able to handwave it as being from a weird mixed/adopted family. I'm still working out the kinks. Anyway, uh. Hi. Thanks for having me. Hope to see some of you around in a few weeks in-world. Sorry if this got a bit too wordy.
