They have done literally NOTHING to curb bots, and at this point they are actually hurting the enjoyment of the game for everyone, and you think they're going to give a shit about a nude mod lol.

I really wish they would rework lbs so that dps can choose between an aoe based lb and a single target based.

One can make the argument that ranged lb is more worth on 2 targets than a caster LB if the caster is a BLM. Even though caster LB does more per target, there is more animation lock that tends to balance things out.

>>128508445
That's how relationships work, dude. Once a pattern is established people are comfortable with it and often times expect it to continue the way it has.

I understand it probably feels like you're the only one making an effort, but they don't necessarily have any obligation to do things with you when you ask but they do anyways, right?

I don't mean to be rude but I think you've got it alright if there's somebody who wants to do things with you when you approach them.

Honestly the class you enjoy will come down to your enjoyment of interaction with class mechanics plus your liking of the aesthetics. One factor being low will make it unlikely the other will be able to drag your interest up.

Rogue is a pretty solid class to roll with though, if that helps.

Rogue/Ninja is a pretty fun DPS, I like it a lot myself and would definitely suggest to keep going and see how you like it once you're a Ninja. You might like Pugilist/Monk as well if you haven't tried them yet. It's similar but more positional heavy and maintains its primary attack power+speed bonus buff by keeping combos going.

Not exactly.

You can't glamour a class or job so it's wearing a piece of gear that is exclusive to another class or job. You CAN glamour stuff that is marked "Disciple of War" onto another that is "Disciple of War"

What this means is often a tank can glamour general Disciple of War gear onto themselves while others cannot glamour tank stuff onto themselves because it's tank exclusive.

When I said I said I wanted a DRG chest I just meant for my level 60 DRG setup.

So I want some pointers on MCH openers. I'm not yet lvl 60, but I feel like my opener needs to be sorted out because it's pretty inconsistent.
Specifically, do I enter a fight with 5 ammo, pop my buffs THEN set up Wildfire, or do I pop my buffs, Reload, then use Wildfire
Also, should I be keeping Gauss Barrel on at all times? I've got Feint cross-classed for when I'm forced to move and don't have procs/can't squeeze off a Split Shot.

I just approach people, say hello, make comments based on what I see, and go from there.
I haven't developed a strict personality for my character yet but I try to be enthusiastic and kind and focus on keeping a conversation going.
It is kind of like roleplaying in tabletop rpgs but the pace is different and it's mostly banter. Try to ask people to do rp things?
>>
>>128513904
Best way is what>>128514019 said, have a character concept, but don't go Special Snowflake, and stick to your racial lore if you can.

Its okay to go outside of the lore box, but don't completely disregard it. Knowing where your character has been and what their goals are is possibly the most important aspect of Roleplaying.
>>
>>128513882
when I use my opener on bosses, I tend to go wildfire, dot, rapid, reload, raging strikes, then I go split, slug, split, clean, slug, reassemble, clean, then just use whatever until I can repeat it.

I'm not even at 60 but that's what I do, it seems pretty neat.
>>
Have you filled your healslut's holes with cum yet, xivg?
>>
wtf does it mean to be prison gay?
>>
>>128514094
remember your procs are 10 second buffs rather than combos, you should almost always do split-slug-split because your procs have no cast in gauss, but split does, so 2 splits means no cast time when you'd have a cast otherwise. the only exception is if things somehow line up to where you're choosing between a split shot or a clean shot before WF ticks off

my opener starts with two ammo, two because five ammo delays your reload far too long and messes your buff alignment up:

BFB, HE, HC, RS - hot (pot) lead (reload) split (wildfire) slug (quick reload+reassemble) clean (rapid fire + gauss round) split (ricochet) slug (head graze) split (blank) clean (turn off GB) split

the reason you drop GB for splitshot near the end is because clean/slug take much longer to register the damage, so wildfire will hit right before slug/clean do on that last GCD, while split hits just before and adds another GCD worth of damage to your WF without wasting any procs.
>>
>>128514620
It means you temporarily become gay because you're desperate to fuck something and there are no women around.
>>
>>128514659
oh, I didn't notice you're still leveling, but to answer your other question you should just put RF on CD as soon as you can (during wildfire though)
It really doesn't matter when, as long as you aren't delaying your shorter CDs because of the very-short GCD (QR, reload, reassemble)
>>
>>128514767
Oh damn. How often does it happen to straight men who come to Balmung? Cause I think it's happening to me.
>>
>>128514452
Oh boy.. That opener is really bad.

MCH main here. Also RPer The biggest thing to know is that the way MCH plays is very pattern based with very tight timing.

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/262260-Lock-and-Load-The-Reassembled-Machinist-Guide

Here's a great guide, but TLDR?

You want to pre-buff with two Ammo and then hit four of your DPS cooldowns before you even start hitting a weaponskill.

>>128514659
I'd swap Gauss and Rico personally, so it lines up well with your Reload and Reassemble better.

But you have the general idea here.

Another MCH anon mentioned that our cooldown activations work in groups.

Note how some cooldowns have similar timers on it, for example Reload, Ricochet and Reassemble, or Hawks Eye, Blood for Blood, Wildfire and Rapid Fire.

>>128514858
Always use Rapid Fire AFTER you throw Wildfire. Biggest thing there.
>>
How do I find fembois to fug on balmung??
>>
>>128515004
uh, for what reason though? the way gauss/rico line up with those CDs, there's nothing that changes in the alignment as rico will come up during your burst at ~180s and there are no CDs that supplement rico, like how BRD would want to put IR on CD before SW/FA so it's up for subsequent casts of those CDs

the reason rico comes before GR in the guide opener is because it comes off CD during 2nd hot reapply, even though from a pps standpoint it's still more damage even to delay your GCD at that point to get GR off, and pretty sure more PPS even if hot shot falls off.
>>
>>128514659
>you should almost always do split-slug-split because your procs have no cast in gauss
Hmm, I've been kinda doing that on-and-off ever since I got my full shot combo because it seemed like the smarter thing to do when you've got ammo, so it's good to know that my assumption was correct for once. I'm assuming this means I should be going Split-Slug-Split-Clean-Slug-Clean right? I mean, for when I've got full ammo.

>>128514858
>>128515004
Okay so basically, keep RF on CD but make sure it lines up with WF, pre-load 2 ammo and keep my CDs in general aligned for greater burst damage potential. That's what I'm getting from you guys so far.

At my current gear level at lvl 54 I usually see between 1.8-2K Wildfires. That's not too bad for someone with a HQ lvl 52 weapon, HQ lvl 52 accessories and mostly IW gear right?

I like the earlier timing for Rico, comes up sooner, I suppose at that point its personal preference, plus, depending on the fight [Faust, Oppressor] You get the Rico in before Adds and thus damage get split. [Or in the case of Oppressor, you don't get both adds at once. I've done that.. Twice now]
>>
Welp, what is your favorite so far? I kinda fell asleep earlier
>>
>>128515462
I can see wanting to put it up in the case of the damage getting split among targets that should be ignored, but from a pps standpoint putting gauss on CD is more dips

really means jackshit in the long run though so it basically is preference

>>128515240
iirc mine wee higher than that at that level but i really cant remember. another thing though, for toggling gauss:
without gauss,
split shot + AA is more than a GB split shot
slug + AA is roughly the same
hot + AA is a decent amount more
Lead/Clean try to have gauss up for those
also remember, the reason gauss pulls ahead is the off GCD damage and crit scaling and such. don't toggle gauss if an oGCD is ready, and toggle it back on when such damage is available.

that's the general rule, but stancedancing flawlessly is barely a DPS increase.

>>128515867
So basically, I shouldn't really stress about toggling GB unless I know there's lots of movement coming?

Then again, it's not like I'm gonna be raiding as a MCH, I'm just leveling it for fun. Just wanna make sure I get it right, though.
>>
>>128516096
yeah pretty much, for optimal atance dancing we're talking 2~4% DPS and I feel like even that is being pretty generous, so toggling for movement is the best option, flip gauss back on after you have slug/clean procs available because movement for more than 2 GCDs is very rare

If you wanna be an autist and get more comfy with stance dancing for the DPS, start off just toggling gauss off for hot shot since that's the largest boost and rasy to plan around.

I was thinking about how mch doesn't scale and then I thought

what if SkS is godly for mch and we were wrong the entire time

You need 2.25 gcd to get 8th gcd in wildfire but there's a certain breakpoint where you'd be able to fit another GCD between a hot/lead

I need to test a SkS build out now

Hey, know that there are FCs out there and possibly linkshells that are great for newbies to RPing.

If you are on Balmung, I'm sure there will be some who will be glad to help out..

Don't let the sexual deviants get to you, I'm one of the MCH mains here, and I'd be glad to help out a newbie RPer.

No.
Nononono.
Maybe up to a point, but you want to stack as much Crit as possible, then Det. Your WF burst is highly dependent on the RNG of your weaponskills critting, so you want to be critting as much as possible.

SkS barely affects DoTs, but there might be some merit to trying for the 9 GCD. Reasoning is that your base weaponskills are weak af anyway, might as well get tiny bit more over tiny bit stronger but less damage.

>>128517035
The thing is, there's no set in stone MCH stat weights. We default to crit since its the highest damage secondary stat for most classes. I'm just suggesting alternative tests with SkS because it probably hasn't been done before, plain and simple

crit >= det > sks correct though since turret/oGCDs doesn't scale off of SkS

You should always have a Job when available. You get free extra important skills from it along with other buffs.

I've pretty much confirmed that anyone who refers to the Final Fantasy MMOs as "XIV" or "XI" tend to have a large amount of favoritism towards one of them.
Those who refer to them as "FFXIV" and "FFXI" tend to have a more objective, less biased view of them.
>>
>>128522364
What makes me mad at these ultimate weapons in XIV is that they're boring. Least in XI the ultimate weapons got unique stats and weapon skills and unique buffs.
>>
>>128522364
I could look past FFXIV's problems if we at least got new egis in HW, with their own skills and buffs.

Only adding "more actions to SMN" (as Yoshida worded it) was pretty dumb.

>>128521731
A good WHM can make the SCH's healing job just "throw out some indoms/lustrates and mitigate cascades", and have them DPS the rest of the time. Goes both ways.

Not to pull a Nora here, but it really seems like they wanted to kill anything related to Classes and the class system as we have it. Which is why they didn't add any new traits, made the 52-60 new skills Jobs only, and made it so that Classes can no longer use level 3 limit breaks.
>>

Then why not just make a menu option called "job traits", and start adding to that instead? There's so many skills that have become invalid/replaced that it's a crime that we haven't got traits that made them relevant again from 50-60.

Is there anyway to add context to emote macros? Like "Some Guy waves to the Striking Dummy" is what you get with the standard /wave emote but if you use /wave motion /em Some Guy waves to <t> you'll end up with "Some Guy waves to Striking Dummy" it's fine as long as you're waving to people but lacks context if you're waving to stupid things like striking dummys or rocks.

>>128527478

I wish the Warlords of Draenor trailer was representative of the actual game. That trailer sold me so hard (despite my previous experience of wanting to do content my subscription is paying for that no one else wanted to), but then I remembered there's an entire expansion dedicated to panda-people.
I'm playing the Starter Edition now and let me tell you I'm glad I haven't spent a goddamn dime; game is dated as fuck, all these pretty screenshots don't come close to giving you an idea of how horrible the game is.

Good morning friends
What are your plans for today?
>>
>>128528234
The only real unfortunate thing about Varian's death is that it comes right at the best part of his character arc. He seems to finally understand what Anduin has been trying to tell him, and is willing to work with the Horde. I hope he gets to do something cool or big before he goes down, seeing a Varian finally fully over his hatred and prejudice would be great.

>>128528463
I fell for the WoD meme . . the worst part is that the leveling was amazing and fun as heck so I totally got suckered in.

I also don't really think 'the elements' count as a weapon. If a mage had a staff and was using magic, I don't think people would count him as having 'two weapons.' Like I said before, the wotlk event had him using p much every shaman spell, and no one seemed to mind. I'll give you the armour, though.

>I also don't really think 'the elements' count as a weapon. If a mage had a staff and was using magic, I don't think people would count him as having 'two weapons.'
That's because mages are such pussies that they hit softer than a whiffle-bat with their staffs. If a mage were big and stronk like a based warrior and used big stronk hits with their staff then the staff would count as a weapon imo.

>>128528821
Rules
As described in The Shattering and Bloodsworn the rules for Mak'gora are:

Each participant is allowed one weapon.
A blessing of this weapon by a shaman of their choosing is permitted, but not required.
Body armor is forbidden.
Each participant must have at least one witness.
If both participants refuse to fight one another, they are banished from the clan.[6]
Traditionally, it is to the death, but under Warchief Thrall's rule it became a non-lethal combat, similiar to Warsong's Mak'Rogahn. Participants can choose to forgo this change.[1] However, even when operating under the old rules, the victor can choose to spare the loser's life.[5]

What you're projecting. And it's level not ilevel, it's also class locked so if you have this awesome looking hat (Evenstar) you can't use it as AST. I will forever be sad about that.

You should be using your own judgement to dictate when/where/if you stancedance, famalam. Use the first couple of pulls to gauge the healer's skill, then go from there. If they can't keep up on a big pull with your tank stance on, then be wary.

>>128534480

As a warrior? Round up mobs with flash/overpower, have infuriate/foresight/bloodbath going as you get them all together. Then get maim up, switch to deliverance, berserk and pop vengeance. Selfheal from overpower spam along with thorn effect on vengeance will keep you self sustained.

Finish off with decimate on the last gcd window in berserk, then switch to defiance and pop convalescence if theres still many mobs alive. Equilibrium is usually needed during berserk to keep spamming overpower, but if healer is shit then save it till berserk is over and decimate when you run out of tp.

Your "combos" is you keeping enmity. Your buffs is mitigating damage, and debuffs are merely a courtesy alongside positioning (standing in one fucking spot isn't checkers).

That's it. Guess what? That applies to both tanks and DPS. Properly DPSing is the same as keeping aggro. Mitigating damage is the same as DPS positioning and properly utilizing cooldowns for maximum damage. Both are exactly the same exact one tries to keep everything in front of them to mitigate damage while the other dances around enemies for highest potential damage.

>>128536787
He may have made it out to be more than it is, but you're WAY oversimplifying it.

A tank also is absolutely required to do the following as well:

Be able to judge what the healer and DPS comp can handle in terms of pulls so that that the optimal pace cam be set and not waste anyone's time.
>unless you LIKE spending 50 minutes in runs that normally take 20 because the shitter PLD is pulling one at a time or the WAR is grabbing too many for the healer to handle at once and keeps wiping you

Know the dungeons better than the rest of the party. The tank is required to know what he's doing. Period. DPS can forget pulls, mechanics, or whole fights. Healer can be a first-timer. In order for that run to go smoothly though: the tank has to be an expert.

My heart bleeds for you, person who is just dps with more health so you can take punches to the head.

You're not special, your role isn't hard, and standing in a specific spot and taunting on X debuff stacks is not harrowing or world shattering gameplay.

It's especially hilarious in a game where anyone can do any role by clicking on a new weapon.

The main difference between DPS and tanks:

DRS have to worry about their positioning for their own positionals/ability to dodge, their cooldowns that affect themselves, and their weaponskills that affect their own damage. Aside from raid utility like Mantra, BRD/MCH songs/promotions, or Shadewalker, that's pretty much it.

Tanks have to worry about their cooldowns in relation to their own damage, what the boss will do in the immediate future, what the boss will do for the rest of the fight, and for their healers in the immediate and/or near future. Tanks have to position enemies for the DPS to be able to hit positionals, themselves to dodge aoes, and the healer/casters not to get cleaved. Tanks also need to have certain weaponskills up at certain times(Path for Gigaflare, Path + Delirium for Cascade) lest someone die.

Unless there's already a strat for the tank to follow (stand here, put X cooldown up at Y time, etc) it's harder to play.

No seriously. In a different era I'd be totally down with admitted tanks are more difficult to play. That is no longer the case though. It hasn't been for a decade in any MMO that I'm aware of.

A good tank can carry a group far better than a good DPS can but that's a product of game design; not a necessity to know your class and role any better than anyone else. A well-played, well-geared tank means higher personal DPS, less damage taken meaning more DPS the healer can put out, easier positioning for the DPS so they can output more as well. That says absolutely nothing about how difficult it is to play the role, though. Only that a well-played tank makes a larger difference than a well-played DPS. Again, it's purely an issue of game design and nothing more.

Tanks and DPS do the exact same thing and require the same amount of thought to perform their role well. The only difference is that it's far more noticeable when a tank is good because that's just how the holy trinity works and has worked since... basically forever. The tank is the last person you want to dye because everything relies on them. Not because of their skill but because of the chain reaction it creates when something involving them goes wrong.

Sleeping potion?
You fucking what mate?

No really, what the -actual- fuck is this shit?
Ignoring for a moment her agonised expression, death rattle, darkening vision and rapid-onset convulsions upon drinking this supposed "sleeping potion", are Square Enix seriously, SERIOUSLY trying to retcon the protagonist's entire (and already extremely flimsy) justification for fleeing to Ishgard?

You can't just conveniently un-kill somebody and portray and play it off as some other character's grand Xanatos gambit. Not only is it lazy writing, but it robs the narrative of all its drama if characters can be resurrected due to their popularity, a fear of upsetting the status quo or whatever other bullshit arbitrary reason.
Man I can't even imagine how older players must have reacted at this scene. The Uldah revolution was built up since, what, 2.2; it'd be 18 months or something between then and Heavensward's launch- and they just undid all of that tension, backroom maneuvering, political intrigue, and assassination machinations in the span of two 5 minute long quests. Christ I'm fucking livid now and it was only a few days ago that I finished 2.55.
>>
>>128538174
As I said earlier: the tank classes are in no way hard to play. They are actually EASIER than most DPS classes to play. What makes tanks difficult is the same thing you mentioned: the game's design.

The minimum level of competency required of the tank for a run to be not just successful but optimal is FAR above what is required for a DPS or healer.

If the tank doesn't know his shit?
>You're fucked.
If the tank makes a mistake?
>Enjoy the wipe.

If the DPS/Heaker doesn't know his shit?
>The run will just take longer.
If the DPS fucks up?
>The encounter might take a bit longer.

Again: what makes the role more difficult to play is the role itself, not the classes in it.

I think it'd be fun to play a complex melee with NIN or DRG, but I just can't imagine the boredom of going back to a set rotation with nothing hanging over your head like tanks do.

Even in A4S where I barely use my tank stance, there's always a threat of a Hydrothermal Missile, Quarantine, or other mechanic where I have to balance my own DPS, the group(plus healer) DPS, my own survivability, and the groups survivability, much like the rest of the game. Not having that kind of responsibility would bore me, I think

That's not difficulty. That's responsibility. Two completely different things.

Where? In A2S when they just need to know where the adds spawn? Or in A3s where they do the same mechanics as everyone else?

Or maybe A4S where they literally do nothing.

Most of, if not everything a tank does is based around what the fight requires, cooldowns, aggro, positioning, debuffs, and their own personal damage, balanced vs what their healers can deal with.
DPS do their rotation, and deal with mechanics so they can get back to their rotation, not much else.

As someone who has played all 3 roles its fair to say that all three roles can have a high skill ceiling depending on the class and encounter. Some DPS are easier to play, some tanks (PLD), and some healers (WHM).
>>
>>128539746
A3S has hand of parting/prayer, repositioning after magnets, repositioning after embolus, reorienting for sluice/protean. Otherwise you do the same mechanics.

They had no real mechanics in first/second coil, but they did have to participate in wild charge, keep t11 adds away, position bennu (but the adds phase was also mostly about controlling DPS), and in phase 2 of t13 position bahamut. The MT routinely also didn't get targeted by a LOT of mechanics and just watched people do the fight around them. Second coil was notorious for this.

...Like when T2 was relevant and not overgeared? That's exactly my point.

This is nothing new. It means you have about one minute after maintenance to create a character before the server is locked again.

Outburst is what happens when you fail the mechanic and touch the ball.

It shows up as Embolus in the enemy list, and the invisible cast bar from the tornado is called "Pressurize".

Oh dear
I tried getting on tonberry but it didn't open up for 2 days straight so I gave up and tried that one, a few folks said it was the EU Aus server.

Should I pay money and move over next time I can?
>>
>>128540903
If you don't care much, just roll on a different server. If you really want to be on either of those, just wait until maintenance and create one right after, or pay the transfer free.

False.

If you don't want to wait for the server to be open and don't want to make a new character, sure, it's money well spent.

Maybe if you were a fag PLD that couldn't silence properly

Why would you drop your MNK's DPS and make them do it?

I notice classes have more additional skills available than jobs.

Is it at all possible for a base class to out-DPS the advanced jobs? Something like loading up on a fuckton of DoTs. Wouldn't every GCD being used on what essentially amounts to a 300+ potency skill be a lot of DPS?
>>
>>128541776
No.
>>
>>128541776
Lolno.
It used to be possible with Marauder and Warrior, but not anymore.
>>
>>128541776
Most if not every DOT has shit potency because they get traited when you're in the job.
It used to be possble for a Marauder to outdps a Warrior at lvl 50, but not anymore.
They're not even useful for PvP anymore because they nerfed them

Classes are useless.

I think that just comes with the territory of being the go to Aussie server.

Are there any others you know of with a good population from our shitty little island?

You should know that.

I see. So what is the purpose of the soul crystals? Why are they not a consumable item that permanently upgrades the base class when they're immediately rendered obsolete?

>>128542147
Obsolete dead mechanic. They were supposed to improve it and make more classes like Arcanist, but well, there it is.
>>
>>128542147
Without soul crystals, you can't turn into jobs like DRK, MCH, AST which are job exclusive and have no classes.

Classes are an outdated thing, kind of like how the Resistances tab is outdated.
>>
>>128542147
Originally it seemed like the plan was to add more base classes as the game expanded. Now that HW is here and all new jobs start a 30 it's pretty much a dead mechanic.
>>
>>128542147
Prior to the release of 2.0, their plan was for each class to end up having multiple job stones that could turn them into different jobs with different roles (like how Arcanist turns into both Scholar and Summoner).

They abandoned that plan almost immediately after realizing that none of the classes they'd designed had anywhere close to the flexibility required to actually fit multiple roles, and the only reasons it worked on Arcanist in the first place were that A) It's a pet class and therefore ended up with four more skills than any of the other classes, and B) Scholar is really overpowered.

Huh... okay then. Always surprises me to see stuff like this in games with huge budgets. Wouldn't think they'd want everyone to see the complete lack of testing/foresight and laziness that goes on.

Should we tell him?

> Wouldn't think they'd want everyone to see the complete lack of testing/foresight and laziness that goes on.

Yoshi would just blame it on their skeleton crew dev team and never speak of it again like he does so many other things.
>>
>>128541776
Classes should have just been renamed to the current jobs back in 1.0 but Yoshi is retarded and listened to the forums when he told people they were going to be renamed and they assumed they would have to start from level 1 again so he somehow thought of having both.

This then fucks up the entire thing especially going into 2.0 with the shitty ass cross class system.
>>
>>128542712
All the money and staff at Square Enix is going towards FFXV and FFVII remake. The FFXIV team is working with literally nothing.
>>
Question.

If you were a 1.0 player and hit level cap, did you start at lvl 50 in 2.0?
>>
The class system as it is could work if they weren't afraid of changing certain base class skills when you put on the job stone.
For example, SCH doesn't really NEED Ruin II. So why not replace it with a more healing oriented spell?
>>
>>128542589
no, cause most of the other continents are connected to another continent near it, africa > asia > europe, north america > south america, antarctica, australia. get fucked americuck.
>>
>>128542818
The game looks beautiful and the OST is beautifully orchestrated. That and the FF title had me assuming they were working with a fairly large budget relative to most MMOs. Is this a small budget for SE or something that even newer studios would consider small?

>>128542961
Doesn't surprise me that those teams are getting most of the staffing and funding. I just didn't think an MMO with such a large playerbase and the FF name would be getting ignored.
>>
>>128543010
yes, but you had a tonne of quest content to do.

Why exactly hasn't add-on support been added to this game yet? I'm pretty sure the dev team has been talking about it in live letters for nearly two years now.
>>
>>128543117
Sure they are, they are all surrounded by water. And at that point there's only 3 real continents.

Nevermind that the very definition of island excludes continents.

you're referring to supercontinents then, America, Eurasia-Africa, Australia, Antarctica.
>>
>>128543212
The dev team is a literal skeleton crew and as a result, content patches are tiny and there's a colossal volume of reused content. Most of the cash from this game is funneled into other games like FFXV. SE is killing this game. Well, Yoshi is too.
>>
>>128543281
Something something PS3 limitations.

The game already has some addon support built in since 2.0, but I guess they are waiting until they drop PS3 and get Sonys approval to make addons for PS4 to officially make addons a thing.
>>
>>128543281
I wish. I've just grown to accept there never will be any.

Shame too, I wish the UI was as customizable as WoW.

>>128543292
yes, any gear or items that existed prior to ARR you obtained you were able to keep, as well as some gear was specifically crafted to look differently in the old version, and it kept those particular differences into ARR.
>>
>>128543364
The Americas are tectonically connected to Eastern Asia, so Europe/Asia/Africa/North and South America would all be one giant continent by themselves.

That's a clearly padded parse.
>>
>>128543479
while it may be tectonically linked, it does not become designated as the same continent, despite the bering land bridge once existing above water.
>>
>>128543731
It can be using the scientific definition of a continent.

That's just a result of it being a loosely defined term scientifically though.
>>
>>128543872
"A continent is defined as a large unbroken land mass completely surrounded by water, although in some cases continents are (or were in part) connected by land bridges. The seven continents are North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, and Antarctica."

>>128543982
The problem comes when scientifically, continents are defined by continental shelves, Which when you do so, can turn every continent besides australia or antarctica into a single continent, since they all link together via continental shelves.
