Do not do this. Post Effects are absolutely necessary to see many of the event mechanic effects in the game. Disabling post effects will also not do anything to make the game brighter.

you need to fix the actual code that changed, not just overwrite files willy nilly.

Positioning the flying adds is extremely important. They do a frontal AE, 180 degree arc, very long range that dots everyone it hits and it is brutal enough that it will kill characters outright without massive AOE healing going down. If you let that hit your entire raid force, you're most...

Yes, this event is basically "can you still play while constantly moving?" You could try to fight off to the side and hope the auras don't run you over, but there is no 100% safe area that is within the leash range. The duplicating one is definitely the most punishing, but they're all annoying...

Cleric Splash. Shaman Squall. Druids have an AA, don't recall the name. Pally Splash. And all priest alliance. Regular group heals are okay. MGB Celestial Regen and the shaman/druid counterparts are fine because they're a buff and not a direct heal.

You can change the default chat channel so you can control where it goes if you do make this mistake. I set my default chat to Fellowship since only my alts are in the fellowship.

Yeah, but that's because the SK won't need heals. The Cleric just stands there looking pretty.

Persona inherits all of your achievements, keys/flags, evolving items, no drop gear, etc. So if you have a bunch of rare clickies or super grindy stuff like Artisan's Prize, Tears of Alaris, etc. all of that can be used by the persona. If you raid current content, the persona can use your...

One less member of the "no fun allowed" team. Hoping Aristo and Ngreth follow suit.

"difficult" is subjective. I will say that there is a much steeper ramp-up period to this than typical software programs that you can normally just "jump in and figure it out". Expect to spend 6+ months before you're proficient at doing all the things. I constantly see posts where people don't...

I don't bot these missions, always had a group. But any time the group was on the weaker side, we always went slow dps on the boss, killing adds as they spawn and not getting more than one wave at a time. Don't let your necro dot the boss at all. Never. Necro and druid dots can easily over dps...

on raids you use it all the time to get in/out of auras or other emote compliance mechanics. It does take some level of skill to aim correctly and not get stuck on terrain.

stats don't matter in the modern game. get gear from current xpac and you'll have lots of every stat. You can stack hAgi, but you'll never be the nimble dodging warrior that can't get hit. You can stack hSta but you'll never amass enough HP to make monster hits not matter. You can stack hDex...

This correct. It's not something that's readily apparent, but Vicious is actually coded as a spell so it scales off spell caster bonuses. Arc is a melee slash so it gets all the bonuses from hdex and melee things. Neither is great, but Vicious is worse, by far, regardless of the number of targets.
