Watching Pyromancers meltdown over this yesterday evening was top quality kek. He was raging like that fat german kid with the keyboard :trump:

Even more funny, he deleted the vod, but people copied the meltdown and reposted it. Then he took it down using a copyright strike, which showed his real name lol

His note taking was always so frustrating to watch. "I'm a lore guy!" *proceeds to write notes for meaningless parts, ignoring what is happening on the screen that actually gives context and information regarding lore*

I wouldnt be surprised if they later announce a special reward for honest people, like a title or whatever

I wouldn't put it past them sense honestly, the housing system is suppose too be a gill sink like the golden mounts they released near the end of shadowbringers....

*eyes his 400m gill stock*

The game could use a few Gil sinks yeah - I’d love to see some unreasonably expensive earrings / rings etc. Gil just feels so pointless as is.

Single large gil sinks are very biased and will be skipped, several moderate ones from a selection work far better at getting the playerbase as a whole to invest (remove) gil from the system.

The 2 golden mounts are cool, I really like my golden ronka though.

The Golden Namazu one though is kinda mehh, but the normal version of it is really easy too get.

Meanwhile I just fly round on my golden Commendation mount like a boss and pretend to myself I earned it.

so I finally thought I'd give this gold saucer thing a go and it turns out I'm a literal gambling god.

So I really only tend to come back for an expansion , level a couple of dps , a healer , and a tank to max level and do all the raids on normal. I use ACT dps meter and enjoy trying to optimize rotations and gear to max my dps. I have a ninja with basically all the best tomestone gear and 590 ilvl weapon and this is usually when I tend to stop playing.

I guess my question would be: Is savage raiding the only way to progress further once you hit this point? I'd love to upgrade my weapon but it seems you have to clear savage raid 4 pandaemonium to do this? I am too sporadic a player these days to get into a static group. Is pugging the savage raids even an option?
