The 1,2,3,4 is a charge between each number in order, so don't line up with other people, or one of you will get hit twice.
the trash is the same amount as normal, but they deliberately slow your pace, which makes it feel unbearably slow.
NPCs wont steal LB if you dont wait till 0.1% to cast 😛
Also the dungeons always feel longer with NPCs because theyre slower and deal less damage and have no AOE attacks
P.S. still waiting for him to realize how much of the Ardbert stuff he's misremembering (it was from HW though so cant blame him) wont specify what now though. he will understand soon
The role questlines give some very nice backstory, and even though you only need to do one of them, in my opinion it's worth doing all 4 of them (and the followup) if and when you have the jobs leveled for them.
You might want to do Holminster again one day with Alisaie in your party – she has some reactions to encountering Tesleen. Also, Lyna is awesome.
1:00:23 There's a "Tales of the Shadow" episode on the SE website that gives backstory to that conversation.
I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far ! Hope it will continue for a long time 😀
On aside note; one of the job quest is mandatory as the game said, but doing all of them will unlock additional story if you want more, but it's totally optional !
If this was live your while chat would be screaming "bring Alisae!" Alisae definitely reacts to battling tesleen.
That Solus bit murdered me, good job lol
Love the new emo hair lol
Great video! Now that you reached role quests i must say that each of them are great! And I mean really great story wise, especially healer one. If u complete all 4 of them u unlock new questline which has awesome story in which they explain some cool stuff. Definitely give it a go to complete all of them.
6:05 Yup, we're finally going to find out the meaning of the Source, Shards, and Rejoinings we've been hearing about.
7:50 Because an entire world with possibly millions of people living on it is destroyed.
13:05 Damnit Two, photoshopping Emet in there.
19:20 Yeah, I still have trouble with the diagonal lines even after doing it dozens of times.
21:53 Tes*wheeeeeeeze* THERE'S the reaction.
22:13 That's the order she'll charge and swipe at you. Spread out slightly so two people don't get hit by the melee swipe at once.
28:55 Get accustomed to never get a limit break ever again if you do duty support. They will snatch it up the millisecond it is available. Alisaie is particularly notorious for it.
32:25 "I just removed the daytime? That's cool." You are now a Shadowbringer.
38:20 Remember when you first got here and checked the weather watching and everywhere was nothing but sun? Now Lakeland will have normal weather. And yes, the nighttime music all through Norvrandt is *chefs kiss*.
44:54 As above, nighttime Crystarium music is absolutely gorgeous.
49:25 Yeah, they didn't do job quests as you know them in Shadowbringers. Instead everyone sharing the same role get the same storyline. Do all of them and there's a bonus questline after. Highly recommended.
54:10 He's talking about the time Estinien saved you from Elidibus!Zenos when Chris's summoning got in your way midfight.
54:40 Tataru and Krile hunting him down during StB and twisted his arm into helping the Scions. There's a whole funny short story on the Lodestone about it.
55:00 See above. And thus begins Estinien's lifetime fear of Tataru.
One brings Karen, one brings the light!
holminster switch feels far less long if you do it with people. the trusts are great, but they are slow, too. that goes for all the dungeons though.
3:16 — Dont worry, thats no Karen-haircut. We already have that and its not this one XD
9:07 — You get to know trickles about former calamities: like one following the Mage Wars (the conflict between Mhach, Amdapor and Nym) which was a giant tidal wave, drowning the land (hence why Mhachi build the Void Arc), or a calamitous earth quake that ended the Allagan Empire (lets emphasis: THE Allagan Empire!), swallowing the Crystal Tower in the process.
11:00 — Everybody loves Lyna, and her VA is to "blame" for that 😀
16:00 — Trauma incoming. Prepare the popcorn 😎
21:44 — They probably got killed before being infused with Light: remember, only the bigger sin eaters can plant light seeds which turn you into one of them. The lesser ones "just" kill you.
28:38 — Dont worry, the Trust knows their s**t: unlike players, they'll always get you out of those chains 😀
49:33 — The role quests certainly are worth your time but its a shame that the usual job quests are discontinued. For good reason but still… Also, really annoying factor: you reach lvl79 of your MSQ and it tells you to finish your role quest first – the lvl80 one XD So, trust me when I say: finish the lvl80 one at the least when you kill your second trial 🙂
51:00 — I always advice to go to Alphi's place first, simply because after Tesleen you want to kill stuff – and not another introduction questline 😛
58:30 — It felt long because you did it with the Trust – they take about twice as long as a normal group, two reasons: they dont use AOEs and they dont do wall-to-wall pulls 😛 If you run these with players, they wont take longer than 10-15 minutes.
GOTH KAREN LET'S GOOOO
Honestly can't blame Ardbert 😂 having lost so much and being unheard and unseen for a century, he probably looks at you like a therapist XD
