[@craigwheeler4760]

I began playing in December 2017... and I will tell you that Blood Bath for Tanks, the Tank and fighting stances, ect. lots of those things were still active. My favorite recovery combo as a blackmage was taken from me by the updates. when I was down on HP, what I could do was caste a spell that healed me by 1/2 the damage caused . It was fast cast time, and I combo'ed it with a skill called "Scathe" to do damage as I moved. When shadow bringers came out, I had to totally give up on hard content with the Blackmage and switch over to main tanking and Red mage due to the loss of his recovery combo. And TP stands for "tactical points' It was linked to some skills for Warriors back in the day. I used to run out of it, and be stuck defending while standing around for a couple of seconds. It regenerated way faster than MP though, so it was not a big deal until you got to savage.

[@Liffeh]

As someone who started playing at the beginning of Shadowbringers, I have a ton of friends who tell me the same stories of from before I played and it just makes me wish I got into XIV much sooner. Such a cool vid Larry, make more of these :^)

Ff14 was a exploiting mess back then, I am really glad I joined now, cuz if I joined back then I wouldn't enjoy it seeing larry talk how ppl exploit content or troll others like black mage having provoke or astro ruining ppl's fun by making ppl go faster, it not fun to me and it ruin the game, glad the devs balanced the game and streamlined everything to make it an actual functional mmo that anyone can enjoy and anyone can play normally, man imagine if we don't have tank stance like we do now, and everyone can get provoke oh boii I don't want to think about those trolls who will troll others just because they are bored 🤦🤦

[@Destoryer12]

When Larry started to talk about it, I was legit waiting for a small exasperated Drak to appear on screen XD

[@NeoKyno]

Proto Ultima appearance is tied to its quest in Idylshire. As long as one out of the 24 persons has the Proto Ultima quest ongoing, it will show up. However, if nobody does, the succubus will spawn.

[@IosLocarth]

Is this still the case? That's super whack

[@Yoran507]

@@IosLocarth The quest is "Unidentified Flying Object". To complete it, you need to kill Proto Ultima, which is why it will replace the Shadowcourt Handmaiden if at least 1 player in the raid has the quest. If 0 out of 24 players have this quest, the Shadowcourt Handmaiden will still appear instead.

[@IosLocarth]

@@Yoran507 I'm actually familiar with which quest activates it but I didn't realize that you could still have the other thing proc now because I've never seen it

[@MephistoGaming-zx3qh]

My first run of Dun Scathe had the succubus boss actually, though I knew about ProtoUltima at the time xD

[@exiaedges]

Wow, I didn't know that. That's one of the few or only cases in which possessing a quest or item affects the instance itself. Also, the Proto Ultima items that you can get are pretty nice. My personal favorite is the earrings in which I used as glamour for the earrings slot until Aetheryte Earrings was introduced.

[@CeruleanRogue]

Another thing I remember was Fate Grinding. It was inefficient for anything other than healer to level via dungeons. So once you got to thirty you went to Costa, then to Coerthas, then basically lived in North Than doing fates. The zone used to be almost as populated as the end game hub because EVERYONE went there for their alt jobs and you'd have dedicated callers and parties in shout chat telling people which route to take to which fates. It actually was pretty fun for the first five hours. Then it just got soul crushing. Only better alternative was the long pull in DD over and over again until your eyes bled. I still twitch when I get that dungeon these days.

[@RandomFlask175]

Before they buffed dungeon exp and introduced PotD later this was true for HW zones too, I remember grinding in churning mists for hours

[@CeruleanRogue]

@@RandomFlask175 Oh god I remember that... And it was almost worse than Northern Than because you could only access one side of the zone.

[@Krescentwolf]

@@CeruleanRogue ON the original release of 2.0, the MSQ didn't have enough xp awards to get your character to 50 at the time. N. Thanalan FATE trains were basically the only way to grind levels at that point. XD

Wow, that Rising event with the Squenix HQ visit sounds awesome. I hope they repeat something like that again sometime. I missed last year's event, but I was in the one with the letters arriving in bottles on the beach, and it was very touching reading the devs' messages to the players.

[@Boyzby]

If I heard correctly, they're adding the ability to replay old events during whatever the current one is, I imagine like New Game+, so hopefully they do it for that Rising because it's also my favorite.

[@jamsrjp]

We also had a rising event where we were teleported into a doom like maze. And you played it in first person.

[@TacetCat]

RIP Shadow Flare and interesting AST cards. I remember the new cards by "the bad ones go to ranged; the good ones go to melee." One of my favorite moments is saving a wipe against Midgardsormr as AST with three new people. Without Ewer's refresh, I wouldn't have had enough MP to get everyone up.

[@callbackspanner]

2:40 That's Wide Volley. RoD we still have, same as it ever was.

[@Larryzaur]

YES indeed it is! I'm dumb please forgive me

[@sorawild33]

Additional point with old tank stances, in Stormblood WAR im particular was able to do so much damage in their DPS stance that they were able to dance between both stances. Tank stance for aggro, then switch to DPS stance for Fell Cleave spam and watch the WAR soar past everyone else on the DPS chart.

I remember as a poor kid reading my brothers gaming magazine they borrowed from their friends. I would read and reread the Final Fantasy XIV sections wishing I could play. I wanted to go on adventures with friends, go through the story, and just get lost in the world of FFXIV. 20 years later, I became a tried working adult that had forgotten my childhood wish. Until a funny video about FFXIV This is Basicly a Blackmage popped up in my KZbin feed. Long story short I got me a gaming PC, researched FFXIV and what happened to the mmo, fell in love all over again.

In Amdapor Keep the devs had to add that barrier before the first boss because people would just sac pull to save time. Demon Wall used to have adds, and they were ROUGH. The general strat was to use the melee limit break on the one on the left (LB left bee). Those two adds are in Amdapor Keep HM as a tribute. Pharos Sirius had to be nerfed because it was so hard that people would bail when they got it in their roulette. They took out about 1/3 of the adds in the dungeon so it was more manageable. For a while Labyrinth of the Ancients had a bug where the last boss (who had a different name) would spam Ancient Flare even after everyone had wiped, so the entire raid had to bail until the instance got reset. Also, during the Behemoth fight there would have to be one tank on each tower, pressing the button as soon as the floor glowed red. LotA used to have the standard 4 dps/2 tanks/2 healers setup; Syrcus Tower was the first time we ever had the 5/1/2 setup we all know and love today. The Binding Coils of Bahamut isn't in the Normal Raids roulette because at level it was REALLY FREAKING HARD, about on-par with the Savage content of today.

But Diadem area do make a comeback and become the region to level up DoL to lvl 80 xD

I like this series of videos Larry. It's good to know how far 14 has come throughout the years.

Wow remember some of these man it’s amazing how much the game has changed over the years. Can’t wait to see what changes in next expansion. Also Diadem is still around it’s just for crafters and gathers now.but yeah I think I did the raid there like three times but I never got the weapon to drop for me.

You make me feels old and nostalgic… and I started on the 2.0!!! 😂 those were great times!! Thanks for all this

These history videos are great keep em coming!

As a 2.0 player it's always funny going down memory lane especially with you explaining this stuff for all the players who never experienced this stuff.

Do more of these please. This is really interesting and I would love to hear more

DPS Tank was best Tank. It's just not the same anymore. He also forgot the Raw Intuition oversight where you always take Crits from side and rear...but this applied to heals too, so a SCH would have guaranteed crit Adlos for it's entire duration. Totally working as intended.

This is so interesting hope for a part 2!
