It gets better You don't even need to kill ultima for the item. If you queue in prog past him you still get the thing at the end

Quote: The Garo gear added in patch 3.5 can now also be obtained via the Calamity salvager NPC. Woo!
Quote: Players must first obtain the corresponding achievement before they will be able to reobtain any gear. ***!
Gonna need everything at 60 before the event ends. :I

You know, as disappointing as the Proto Ultima fight was, I kind of wonder if that's the same feeling SE felt when it got steamrolled by what was it, 24 WARs at fanfest or whatever?
"Omg this boss we made is garbage... Very well, it shall be garbage."

"Omg this boss we made is garbage... Very well, it shall be garbage." Well we need to keep in mind the fight wasn't originally meant to make it into the real game, and I think it was designed around a lower ilvl(240ish?).
People basically demanded they implement it because they didn't wanna feel left out and Yoshi was like "Okay sure, whatever you want this scrub tier fight."

fight seems less challenging than the succubus, and kinda doesn't fit with the theme of the dungeon :|

I think it would've been nice if it was still at least it's own trial (even if it's a stupidly easy one).
I don't think it'll actually happen but I do like the thought in this Reddit thread. Having an event inside a DF that changes based on the week would pave the way to similar style content for the future. I don't think S-E has that kinda foresight however but I shall be pleasantly surprised if this comes to fruition.
Until then, RIP Succubus.

Until then, RIP Succubus. I'm also hoping for something like what that thread suggested, maybe even making it so it sometimes takes the place of bosses and becomes harder because of it.
However, as much as I hate it being in Dun Scaith due to it not only not fitting in with the theme but also because it seems like an incredible pushover, even for a trash pull, I can understand not making it into an actual trial for the fact it is 24 man with a weekly lockout and a token drop which would make it go dead real quick and filling spots for it would be near impossible within a month or two. I mean, look at how long Odin queues could and still can take since he offers so little.
Making it into an actual 24-man trial would have also likely meant a completely new battlefield and I wouldn't be surprised if they're too focused on Stormblood and wrapping up Heavensward to dedicate resources to an entirely new area just for a "fun" fight from the fan festival that was never intended to be included in the game or even be truly difficult.
Edit: Don't get me wrong, I'm incredibly disappointed by the way it was implemented and I'm rather salty about the entire situation because I was excited and hoping for a new fight but... honestly they kind of delivered exactly what they said they would and even gave us free and easy 270 accessories for our trouble.

having a weekly airship raid would be nice, sure 1st fight could be the same, but then the airship lands on some island and can keep a different rotation of bosses found, and asides the normal possible drops, some kind of unique glamour piece would drop ?

I deactivated in December, I didn't think they were gonna add anything substantial before Stormblood. I haven't kept up at all. Right? Wrong?

Dun Scaith (24-man)
Garo PVP event(same pvp but you can now buy Garo themed armor/weapons and receive 3 different metal horse mounts, if you're into that)
Normal 2 new Expert dungeons (1 story 1 side)
New Diadem being released sometime in the next couple weeks
and some kind of story conclusion next monthish.
Not a huge amount(at least not until we figure out how the new Diadem will function.) but there's still some battle content that was added.
If you're more in it for stuff like the Savage Alex raids, no nothing really added for you past Creator.

If anyone remembers this
Quote: The Tokyo District Court sentenced Tomohiro Iwazaki (28) to 14 years and six months in prison on Tuesday for stabbing 21-year-old singer and songwriter Mayu Tomita (pictured at right, no relation to the former AKB48 member of the same name) before an event last May.
Tomita was in critical condition after receiving nearly two dozen stab wounds on the neck and chest. She later regained consciousness, and is continuing her rehabilitation. She testified in court behind a screen, sharing that she has had difficulty singing or eating due to partial paralysis of her mouth, and that she is also having trouble with her eyesight.
While she was testifying, Iwazaki interrupted Tomita and shouted, "Then you should kill me." He was removed from the courtroom. Before the verdict was handed down, Iwazaki apologized to Tomita and her family, and promised to learn patience in prison.
The presiding judge commented that Iwazaki's attack took away Tomita's dreams, and that Iwazaki "must learn to control himself and abide by society's rules while he is in prison."
Police had found Iwazaki at the scene in May. According to police, Iwazaki allegedly admitted that he had stabbed Tomita due to her returning a gift he had sent her, without clearly explaining the reason why. He had allegedly been waiting for her at the station to ask her about the gift.
Prior to the attack, Iwazaki repeatedly tried to contact Tomita online. Tomita had previously reported Iwazaki's actions to the police but the police did not consider the matter urgent. The police later apologized for not taking action.
Tomita was scheduled to perform at a venue in Koganei, Tokyo on the night of the attack. Singer Ray and idol unit AŌP cancelled their scheduled handshake events the same weekend.

HURRAY! Turns out my dog's esophagus is stretched/relaxed/elongated or something like that. No tumor or mass or lodged bone or anything like that. So soft food till it heals, from an elevated position, with a couple new meds. I think my dog will be OK :D
Edit: Also, Blue Pearl couldn't believe that he was 14! Too healthy and strong they, they were legitimately surprised.

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
