    This game REALLY needs a refund system. I spend 2000 sack of nuts on Deepshadow augment piece instead of the crystarium one...

    what have you got? augmented ironworks? that should be good enough to carry you all the way through to 60 honestly, you only even start to see weapons with better ilvls at the 55 dungeon

    Yeah, after reading that post, I looked into it and realized that I'd been accruing tomestones without realizing what they were for. Quick jaunt to Mor Dhona and now I have a weird mechanical expando-grimoire. Thanks!

    You can go to any of the capital cities as of 5.3. The vendors are right by the Aetheryte.

    Well, At least I got something for my ritual nut sacrifice. Managed to clear the new EX trial for the first time and got the mount.

    Did y'all know that on the final boss of Labyrinth of the Ancients, if someone is just...left grabbed by an Iron Claw all the way to the point where he casts Ancient Flare and people aren't on pads, the boss just goes ham Flaring over and over trying to get them until they die from the DOT?

    CUZ I SURE DIDN'T.

    I finally finished ARR and started HW this morning. My fucking emotions holy shit.

    Those post-ARR, pre-HW quests were a real slog, but there was enough good stuff in there to make it worth it.

    Machinist seems gun!

    ...I mean fun. Shit, that's too perfect a typo, I'm leaving it.

    This might be a dumb question but where do you get the Yo Kai Watch mounts? I bought all the minions and have like 5 of the weapons, but the guy at the Golden Saucer doesn't have any mount category

    There's a guy who gives out achievement based rewards in Gridania. They're on the path north of Mih Khetto's Amphithetere (sp) near a waterfall.

    It's probably the strongest quest line overall. I feel the 60-70 batch falls off a bit, but even then.

    So I was farming Primal EX horses last night, already had Shiva's from one of the moogle tomestone events, and picked up all the rest except Ramuh's, since he seems un-soloable. On my fourth or fifth Titan EX fight, the Nightmare mount dropped, and I'm informed that that's ultra rare.

    So I'm here to brag about it. Riding this goofy looking thing around now, just to show off.

    (It's just the Unicorn mount recolored black, with its horn on fire, and there's green mist around its hooves when it flies. No special music or anything.)

    ramuh's plenty soloable as a healer/red mage/paladin FWIW
    haven't tried it as DPS yet
    edit: I can JUST BARELY do it as 80 DRG if I use all my self-healing buttons, but like skin of my teeth, one more hit might have finished me first

    I just got into this the other day and I'm a disgusting little craftpig now

    My highest DoM/DoW class is 20 and I have all DoL except fishing and all DoH except blacksmith and armoursmith at 20

    I also realized my Todd Rundgren inspired character has to be a different class now because I didn't realize Bards classed up from Archers and I picked Thaumaturges because I cast "A Blizzard, A True Storm"

    Really? He keeps just locking me down in stuff that doesn't let me move or act until he can blast the shit out of me. For the two minutes the fight lasts, I have agency for like 20 seconds of it. We'll have to talk about whatever I'm doing super wrong.

    Edit: Or I could just stop trying to brute force it as a DRG, since I do also have RDM at 80. That wouldn't be the stupidest option available, I suppose.

    the stun should only last 6 seconds and he doesn't cast it very often, maybe 2 or 3 times before either I or he was dead

    I don't actually know ramuh's mechanics other than kill the adds, what do the orbs do other than end the tether debuff?

    Having three of them also boosts your resistance to the constant lightning attacks for a minute or so.

    Edit: Oh wait, just this attack.
    Orbs - Eat 3 to give a shield for a minute that prevents you from dying to Shock Strike, otherwise it does around 17k damage and goes through Hallowed. Building shield also removes tether. The more orbs are out, the more damage Thunderstorm deals. Managing shield duration is the tank swap mechanic. Eating more than 3 will give an 'overcharged' shield that reduces healing per stack but still blocks Shock Strike. It caps at 3 stacks.

    Shock Strike - AoE attack on tanks. Tanks need to gather three to get a debuff (Surge Protection) that makes them able to survive Shock Strike. The current off-tank picks up 3 orbs from every second Thunderstorm and Provokes Ramuh. Tanks keep swapping like this until the end. Tanks can get more than three stacks of orbs but any extra after third reduces healing received (Static Condensation).

    be sure to check all of his inventory, if you didn't know about him there's a good chance you've already unlocked a bunch of other goodies

    Yeah one of the big things about this game is you can’t do very much content on one character so you need at least 9 alts
