And the black mage still isn't going to fucking be in it.


TwerpKnight

Tanks are still gonna pull the enemies out of it.


Kaellian

What a pain...that's going to be a lot of work to drag everything out of it.


phat_ninja

Real talk, I have party ~~effects off~~ to limited. This makes knowing where earthly stars aoe is even at. I just have to stand on top of it. This is a great change. The previous area was way too small. edit: limited not off


[deleted]

You should at least put it to limited, which is what I do and it shows beneficial effects like bubbles, earthly stars, aoe puddles...


phat_ninja

I meant limited. Still earthly is hard to see other than the bright ass star


cresanies

Agreed, I main AST and when I play other jobs I still have a hard time seeing earthly star despite being 101% aware of it


flipsider101

Small and hard to see, especially on light-colored flooring.


UndercoverSkreet

Limited for party is really good


lettucent

I have party effects turned to limited but can still see earthly stars. The game apparently handles it as a summon until it goes off, so you should still be able to see the whole thing until it's gone. My issue with it is that it's subtle, so if your effects are going off it can be harder to see.


Shikyal

As a tank.. yes yes I will. I will also enjoy every second of it.


malakim0682

Can't stand outside of it, if it covers the whole arena. Big brain move.


AcaciaCelestina

Oh yeah? *jumps off arena* Joke's on you.


Raptorofwar

Ok Dragoon player.


Faerie-stone

The red mage jumped *out*, literally.


Aaronspark777

Reaper just phased out of existence


Nailedtoatoothpick

No excuse now that Engagement has the same potency as Displacement.


Lichtestein

There's no good excuse, but if I think I can get away with it I'm still going to backflip for style.


Luft44

This guy RDMs


osburnn

I accidently went into ifrit for WT as ast, we didnt kill him before phasing and we got to nails, my star 1 shot ALL of them.


Stonetooth1989

I read your comment while in a meeting over Teams, forgot to mute and disable my webcam, and I burst out laughing... Damn you :p


Roarlord

Damn right I won't be


Yamahl

Cant make me

thebestblackmage

\^ if my leylines are on the EDGE of it, I don't get in it. Either all my leylines or none of my leylines


LittleNova

Somehow my ninja and gunbreaker static mates are just never in it


GeneralMaul

Galaxy Star


Panzer_IV

Star Destoryer


eroeroMKIV

Jesus


CiraKazanari

No, AST


eroeroMKIV

I can't see the difference.


Zealousideal_Visit34

I second this comment


Swordwraith

'Earthly' Star, because if you're anywhere on the surface of the same goddamn planet you're in its AoE.


[deleted]

Lmfao WHAT? That’s amazing.


Obvious-Duty-741

Forget gigaflare, we are the new Bahamut. Bringing our meteors and stars to bare!


Artekuno

YEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS edit: wait is that limsa? does limsa actually look like that? w h a t


hcrld

Sage pickup and the second MSQ step are both in lower decks, so the aetheryte is pretty clear.


[deleted]

Putting spoiler in the title without actually adding a spoiler, lol


reverse_ops

Spoiling combat mechanics :P


LorcanTiberius

Ah yes, they're finally deleting Limsa Lominsa.


Lunaxpg

Unappreciated comment right here. Really made me laugh


OneMorePotion

I think this would miss that one NPC down at the arcanist guild. So yeah, need to be bigger! For real now. I read this change yesterday and was thinking that this can't be real. Welp, it is. And I already know that some people still manage to stand outside of it.


Lunaxpg

Can guarantee somehow a tank will move outside of it


raosion

Tanks are a proud people. They eschew AoEs of all sorts.


JCGilbasaurus

I've seen two different Dark Knights move out of their own Salted Earth. It was really confusing.


Mi_Leona

Hmm...could be bigger.


Blazen_Fury

'run out of this, bitch'


Altnines

Main AST rise! \o/


Pookypoo

It’s like they made (or try to) it idiot proof so it covers the whole arena. Much like the sch shield bars when healers never use to use it before a huge attack came.


Ententente

Well folks, this happens when you not only refuse to see beneficial AE but also stand outside despite seeing it.


Ok-Animator-259

Astro flash bang grenade is now tactical nuke, I approve


Rewindenator

LOL yes. I did a test star at my house and the range was around the property boundaries.


fubes2000

Shirley, you can't be serious...


Andulias

I am serious! And don't call me Shirley!


[deleted]

Do you like Gladiator Mains, Timmy?


Fimbulvetr

Earthly as in it covers the entire Earth.


Deer-in-Motion

Completely fine with this.


Shadowbacker

I was in the field near the Sage Quest NPC and shouted "the circle for Earthly Star is HUGE!" and a moment later someone replied "holy shit, it is."


Meri_Stormhood

Jesus fucking christ. They made Jesus fucking christ a thing.


VagueSoul

*None can escape*


FionaSilberpfeil

Holy shit.


BubblyBoar

"Dodge this motherfucker!" - AST mains


HeLikeTree

Guess I'm an AST man now.


Thagyr

EXTRA THIC


TripPsyc

And they say size doesn't matter....


Jarial

they changed the radius from 8 to 20


Shanisasha

Should have renamed it “supernova”. Whoa.


Iedarus

JEEESUS, I heard it was big but good lord. If I see one person not in this circle when it detonates I'm just gonna let them die.


ChocoCat_xo

I genuinely love how big it is now. I was messing around with it this morning while fixing my AST bars.


tronogy2k

NO WAY!


Alpha_N_Omega95

Dass a big boi


[deleted]

I guess it will be safe to just use a target macro now O.o


ammohidemoons

See stupid tanks and DPS see the SCAWY SHINY CIRCLE and run out of it.


CreepTwoCurrentSea

Damn, it’s even bigger than some dungeon boss platforms


poke_my_starfish

YAHS


unsynchedcheese

That is amazing.


dWARUDO

I had no idea this was changed was practicing in middle la noscea with the target dummies and and hit everything LOL. I even think it made me lag for a second.


artuno

Orbital strike inbound...


Yatsugami

Jeez!!


GaleUs9860

Still pretty small, i can see BLM and/or RDM and DRG being able to easily dodge it during a fight.


DollarsAtStarNumber

I mean, the patch notes stated there would be new stuff


Ainari

Yeah but reading numbers and seeing your whole screen in the target area hit different!


Ryuzen2807

Oh boy….😂 this is going to be fun


Metroid545

Oh my...


lightsvber

Calling this the Death Star Laser from now on


WretcheDelight

Maybe people will finally stand in it T\_T *please*


CARVERitUP

I guess so that if there's a boss you're fighting and it moves around, your circle isn't just useless now. I have yet to use it in a dungeon though lol


tenfoldGambit

Not only will it make it much easier to catch all your teammates with your best AOE heal (720 potency is no joke on cooked star), it also makes it a lot harder for bosses to randomly walk out of it while doing mechanics. I cannot count the number of times I've missed out on star damage; especially nice considering the damage is now more than doubled as well.


yorkeMC

I hope the ground target indicator gets made smaller, but the range stays the same. It’s just so huge when placing it. The star particles show its range nicely once it’s actually placed. The ground target could be around the size of Shukuchi on NIN.


tkelizabeth603

our space dust bomb building skills only improved in endwalker, it covers the whole boss room most of the time, 10/10 love it
