I'm sorry I didn't know Empyreans were hard to make, if you play a job alot there is no excuse not to have an Empyrean for it.
Ah that is why I have a Gambanteinn, a perfect excuse now! :)

HEXA STRIKE GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I could have probably got one back on Shiva if I had ever got a turn, but in all reality we're incredibly casual on Carbuncle and I like it like this. Maybe after Sev has his Ukon I'll see if anyone wants to give me a hand on a vere (Would do Daurdabla but *** that). If not then meh.

We get ***done regardless of our gear. And where would be the fun with no wipes
Pretty much this here too, I already have an almace, which I made during the big kannagi-boom where all the jps were swarming to make theirs, which combined with single ???s for briareus/sobek and no chance of getting guku KI in a gold chest led my psyche to be almost completely broken. I'm pretty much deathly afraid now that if I go about making an empyrean I'll end up with the same popping-purple claim NMs and waiting 20 minutes for a solo jp nin/dnc to not proc a ??? nm after he pops over me. So I stick to our casual salvages (which I'm addicted to partially because they're instanced ._.) and other misc. little outings we have, which is basically just doing whatever needs doing.

I like my almace, and I feel blessed to have gotten it, don't get me wrong, but I feel I hardly use my blu anymore in my very low-man setting that I do things with my friends with. And with classes starting up I have no time to make an empyrean now really, especially Twashtar seeing as how I'm almost always on THF nowadays.

If I'm doing anything involving empyreans now it would be helping someone else in ls finish their first, because like others have said, you should at least have 1 empyrean for the job you play. The one thing that irks me are the people who work on their like, 4th empyrean while their other 3 are still 85 and there are other people in linkshell who need help making their first, and they expect other people to help them make theirs instead of help that empyrean-less person.

This probably sounds like a bunch of rambling mumbo-jumbo, I blame waking up at 6:30AM :<

I know many of you are somewhat disappointed that there aren’t any adjustments or new abilities being added for monk in the upcoming version update. We don't apologize for this

Pssh I remember you pulling out your almace in some exp parties ;p. Also, even with 3 ???s still stupid people being stupid. Bst solo's the lizard for seals and takes 40 minutes ;\.

To be on original topic I really wish Mnk got something extra fun to use but I understand the reasons why it didn't. Have they said anything about new ws' I don't read forums often?

I've got a theory (mostly joking) - does anyone have a job/subjob combination that results in you having to scroll down the list? I mean, the list actually contains more than what is visible at one time. I know monk/war is getting pretty full of abilities. I wonder if there's no capability for that list to scroll.

You have like 18 different shared timers useless JA's on THF that are all up again in 5 minutes if that counts

You should see it when a sandworm uses Dessication or w/e with the Recast plugin

Oh weird - I wonder if it varies by resolution or something... I was sure I didn't have to scroll. Damnit.

Obviously you should spend 20-30 minutes killing those two though, because you know, you're totally wasting a brew on such an NM.

lol i didn't mean shameful as you shouldnt do it, idk why i said it really. perhaps my need to exaggerate. can brew whatever you want and as far as NMs go a NM that takes 10-15 to kill it well worthwhile. Ignore that part -.-

BUT he is a NM that takes more than 3 mins to kill

Its a waste of a brew if you are only doing 2. And Pan is a 8 minute or less fight. Using replenish-able temp items is just so hard.
