    I am part of the mighty mighty tanking lalafell race! WE ARE FEARLESS OF THINGS BIGGER THAN WE ARE!!!

    Which is good, otherwise you could never leave the house.

    Or keep a medium sized dog for a pet.

    Oh come on. I'm as much a fan of lalabashing as the next guy, but the idiom you're paraphrasing has cat in it already. Just begging for a '-girl/boy'.

    Yes, but you have to be a Roe to swing a kitty person with any force.

    Which is why Twin and myself prefer using Lalafells.

    I'm developing Lalafel-chucks as we speak.

    Will you be using genuine Lalafel monks?

    Lalafel-chucks without Lalafel monks is just Lalafel-junk.

    Trying to figure out if it's worth it to have ninjas for bladed chucks or just use little Lalafel tanks to act as cudgels.

    I can't find it now because it is ancient by now. But several years ago in one of the WoW threads (I think we used to have one for each class. Crazy! MMO diversity sure is something) someone posted a picture of "dual-wielding paladins" and it was a Tauren warrior wielding a paladin in each hand.

    This is where I would insert that picture.

    I think I heard long ago that resting in the inn gives you rested xp a tiny bit faster?

    Probably not enough to worry about unless you are gonna be gone for a few days.

    No real benefit. As long as you are in a sanctuary you'll gain rest exp.

    Looks like the Hunts will be back in full swing this time around. They upped the reward from A and S rank seals and added a new log that can drop or be purchased. My money is that the new log is turned in for Carbontwine and Carboncoat.

    A bit leery of that hunt bit. Wasn't overly fond of that last time. Outside of that, craftable 110 weapons, new decorations for housing, and perhaps the most perplexing item on the list: The Emperor's New Hat.

    Wonder what the stats on the demon items will be?

    oh, and platinum goldsmith items at 100. if you can meld, I wonder if they'll be equivalent to 120s or not.


    And it looks like crafters might get their wish. I'm seeing artisan and adept items...

    The following items are now available from the NPC Aelina in Mor Dhona at Revenant's Toll (X:22 Y:6):
    Carboncoat / Carbontwine

    Hmm, wonder what the cost / turnin will be then. I wonder then if the WoD tower will only have demon drops, a minion, and possibly crafting items?

    Kinda underwhelming. More hunts and Odin isn't even dropping a decent accessory?

    So many people on the sub-Reddit thought they were getting i125 weapons out of WoD too. I knew that wasn't happening, but I didn't think they'd go 110. With those upped seals, I can have all the twine I need in a matter of a day or two. Already have 2k saved up.

    EDIT: Underwhelming from expectations, but still amazing that they give us as much content as they do. : )

    Ooo that's smart. I was wondering if they would ever add an incentive for the other CT raids. I know i'll be doing them each week for sure now.

    I'm seeing the Platinum accessories at i110.

    Also, Lucis main-hand items plus there appears to be a new token item for every craft so I presume the progression is:
    Artisan craftable gear -> Tokens -> Adept gear + i90 Lucis main-hands

    FINAL FANTASY VIII was an offline game, so players could only have matches with NPCs. However, now it will be possible for players to have matches with each other. With that said, players will not be able to take cards away from one another. Players will simply be competing to see who is stronger. Tournaments will also be held at the Gold Saucer, and there will be cards that are awarded to players who win a certain number of matches each week.

    YOSHIDAAAAAAA!!!

    Super duper, totally important question.....

    If the new haircuts look okay on midlanders, I'm probably going to use a fantasia to change my highlander->midlander. Yes yes, I know, why for just haircuts bla bla. *


    If I do so, what is the best way to do it? Can you do the 'save appearance data' from character creation and use it with a fantasia? I've never used one, so dunno how the interface works.



    *Edit: I'm used to paying eight bucks or more in games just to unlock a single hairstyle and then apply it, so while I should probably be annoyed, I'm not bothered at all if for no other reason than comparison to what I'm used to.

    Ahhhh I love the new dungeons.

    So one of the story quests rewards a choice of Crit, Det or Accuracy IV materia, the price will probably briefly go down a bit from people trying to make quick $$$ undercutting. Good thing to watch over the next couple days if any of you are working on relics, although market price will certainly rebound swiftly.

    At the character login screen you can "create" a new character. Save the appearance data (without actually making the character) and then when you fantasia it up you can just load the data.

    Edit- oh and if you saved your original character data you can load that up first, change race, and it should keep/be close to your original design. Example, when I went from Femroe to Lala it kept my Roe's skin, hair, and eye color. It would also keep the hairstyle if it is cross race.
