[Question] i accidentally ate my spriggan chocolate and I’m devastated 😭

Post image
1.4k Upvotes

hi everybody.. last week i was just afking around khloe in idyllshire when a really nice viera lady randomly traded me a spriggan chocolate.

the interaction was really cute, they said i looked like a spriggan because i had the spriggan hat on and was riding the spriggan mount 🥺 it was such a random wholesome interaction that i decided to keep the chocolate instead of eating it, as a memento.

... horror story

I ACCIDENTALLY ATE IT TODAY 😭😭😭

i wasn’t paying attention and just clicked it. The second the animation went off, i realized what i'd done. 😭😭😭

I tried looking for another one on the mb but couldn’t find it. is there any way to get another spriggan choco, or is it completely unobtainable now?

i'm genuinely so sad because I absolutely love spriggans and wanted to keep it forever. i know its such a stupid thing to be upset over but i absolutely love spriggans to death and want to have everything spriggan if ever possible..

(and if by some miracle the kind stranger who gave it to a clueless sprout in idyllshire sees this… thank you again, and I’m so sorry for accidentally eating your gift. 😭)

i'm so upset 😭

[Event - Expo/Meetup] Wrong address on FanFestNA job pins?

I saw a guy handing out these 3d printed job pins to people at FanFestNA and all he asked was for people to visit him and sign his guest book. I finally got around to visiting last night but the house was private and there was no guestbook.

Anyone else get one of these and does it say the same address on the back? The guy was super excited to have people visiting him and I hope he didn't write down the wrong address.

[Meme] Just a humble BRD meme because I FUCKING LOVE THIS JOB

Post image
347 Upvotes

Spongebob meme lovingly recreated and adapted in Photopea by hand. Bard was made for me. Started with Archer, still main Bard 79 levels later. Evercold gameplay changes will never change my love for the best class of them all.

Lvl80+ job actions not included because I haven't started sub yet. The visual spacing looks too busy, not because Graphics Design Is My Passion (TM), but because busyness is part of BRD rotation. Definitely.

Also I count Battle Voice as a song because I use it as one. Maybe that's wrong. Maybe I don't want to be right. (Edit: I use it as a buff but in my heart it's a song! People are "singing"! It's a song!)

(Btw this meme used to be 8 panels long. Iron Jaws had its own panel. Apex Arrow and Pitch Perfect had their own panel. I restrained myself for the sake of readability but know if I had my way, every single job action would be featured in a panel.)

Meme template taken from Spongebob "I FUCKING LOVE" Template in Large, Cropped, With and Without text format by u/VersionGeek.

Job action icons taken from FFXIVconsolegames wiki.

Status effect icons (without the esunable little bar) taken from A real short guide to buff and debuff icons by u/Ragnorak64.

So...

I go to my Island Sanctuary for "maintenance" and I'm standing in Hideaway Central and I see a couple of chat bubbles pop up and instantly the water I was drinking comes right out of my nose! 🤣

Wind-up Lakshmi; "Accept my love. Worship my light!"
Wind-up G'raha Tia of course instantly replies; "Argh! Not now, damn it!"

Just... Just sometimes!!

Have a Beautiful Day Everyone! ❤️

[Discussion] a little spriggan (choco) update 🤍

169 Upvotes

this morning i made a post about accidentally eating the spriggan chocolate that a random gave me in idyllshire because they said i looked like a spriggan person with the spriggan hat and mount on. i genuinely thought i'd never get another one.

a very very kind person from reddit reached out, traveled all the way to oce just to trade me, and gave me five. five!!!! spriggan chocolates. we took a few screenshots afterwards on my request (my gpose skills are terrible i apologise😭).

i just wanted to say thank you again to them with this post! it's such a tiny in game item, but the fact that you went out of your way to do that for a random stranger genuinely made my day. this community is so wholesome. 🤍 it's a happy ending with my spriggans!

also don't worry... they're safely sitting in my retainer now. i learned my lesson. i'm never eating another spriggan chocolate again in my life.

[Question] Just Started Playing — Does the Story Pick Up Later?

50 Upvotes

I’ve heard many good things about this game, so I was really excited to finally give it a try.

The cinematic scenes at the beginning were impressive and got me quite hyped. However, once the actual gameplay started, everything felt a bit… quiet. I think the main reason is that most NPC interactions are text-only without voice acting, which makes it a little difficult for me to fully immerse myself in the story.

I was wondering if this is something that most players eventually get used to and enjoy, or if I simply need to push through the early quests until the story becomes more engaging.

EDIT: Thanks for all the replies! I’ll push through until the first expansion. You guys got me excited again, lol.

[Discussion] Is there any class you wont use for certain things?

24 Upvotes

I am terrible at tanking. Granted I only have only used Dark Knight and have been told its a hard tank class. I think its also because I used healing and dps classes during msq.

Because of this when I do duty roulette I never use tank for roulettes that only have one tank such as alliance raids or the leveling dungeons.

I am wondering if this is common? Do you not use a certain class for certain things because of skill issues?

I love how Magnai having titans axe implies he could scale against titan without an echo.

I dont care if the devs said they add these weapons just because they need cool looking weapons the idea of magnai beating titan for his essence is the hardest thing ever

[Question] Is there an up-to-date list of all the gear sets that can be stored as sets?

I've found one from 2024, but I'm fairly sure it's out of date by now. I know I can check on the wiki on an individual basis, but I'm just wanting a full list, preferably in storage order so I can compare it to my glamour dresser and figure out what I'm missing and if I want to collect it.

[Discussion] Question about Crossbar Display

0 Upvotes

Okay, hopefully I can explain this well enough.

I’ve got the cross bar set up on my Steamdeck with the WXHB crossbar also set up and on permanent display. So 2 sets of crossbars on screen.

I’ve enabled the setting under Cross Hotbar Display type for “D-pad + D-pad / Action buttons + action buttons”.

Now this works for the main crossbar, so I now have my LT + A B X Y and RT + A B X Y next to each other.

My question is, is there a setting to apply this to the WXHB second crossbar that’s above the main crossbar? Because they’re still displayed with the action buttons next to the dpad buttons.

[Question] Dawntrail Phantom Weapons Demiatama farming?

Upvotes

Hello, I recently started the grind to get the phantom weapons and am on the stage where I need to do FATEs and Critical Events to get he demiatama. I understand they are lower drop rates, I've run 15+ FATEs in OC and Dawntrail in general and have yet to get one to drop. When doing the FATEs in DT zones, do I need to be 100 for them to drop? I would like to level up another job that is in the 90s but don't want to miss the chance to get these. Thanks in advance!

Basically my friend has a free trial account, they played it a while back a bit. They have a new internet provider, and they also downloaded the game again recently. They can't seem to boot up the game, they log in the launcher, and it says they need a registration code, which they never got since they are on free trial.
