Kusuri no Azana

Hi guys,

So I was hoping to open up my headshot commissions later on this month, but due to some serious financial miscalculations I’ve ended up too short to even be able to afford to make my minimum credit card payment. I’m in need of cash, so I’ve decided to open up my commissions a few weeks early to those who want them.

So I did some doodling and now I’m just sad

Summer Picnic [27/7/16]

Hello everyone! I feel since I haven’t been on in a little while, and I’m making a looot of life changes that perhaps an update was in order.

First off, in terms of my personal life, I’m finally beginning to get things back on track. My relationship is fixed, better than ever in fact. My boyfriend and I are closer and more open with each other than we ever have been, I think. All I have to sort is my credit card debt, and we’ll be able to look at moving in together somewhere in town.

Next is FFXIV. I have had such an on-off relationship with this game that it feels almost a hollow threat to say I’m giving it up for good, but I am this time. Over the past 3 years, this game has provided me with such joy and I’ve met so many good friends through it. However, there’s always another side to that, and too many times I’ve allowed myself to fall too deep and lose sight of my real-life priorities. I need to distance myself from the game once and for all, to make a clean break and start fresh.

With that in mind, I have made the scary decision to move on to a new blog. This is for several reasons, mostly because it’s much easier to start over by actually starting over, rather than going through and trying to adapt what has always been a FFXIV-centric blog into a personal/art blog. It also means I get to start over without having to go through and unfollow the hundreds of porn blogs I follow at the moment. They’re nice and all, but not so much when I’m terrified to open Tumblr in public in case hardcore gay fucking pops up while I’m on a crowded bus.

Anyway, you’ll find my new blog here: @oberonart

To those of you who choose to follow me there and stay with me, I appreciate you and your friendship so much, even if we’ve never spoken past reblogging each others’ posts. And to those of you who don’t, I understand. I know some of you follow me purely for my FFXIV content, so I know not all of you will want to follow an art/personal blog.

Examples for commissions! I will post up some commission info at some point when I eventually feel good enough at art to offer them

This is fucking sickening. White gay men constantly erase and dehumanize black gay men by making these asinine comparisons. Queer is used in a derogatory way but it is also used in a reclamation way. Nigger is ALWAYS an offensive term because it’s an offensive word and it always has been. No black person “identifies” as a nigger, and you can see his racist bias at how we supposedly “litter” the media with rap music.

Fuck this racist bottom and fuck white gays that continue to erase black gay people for the sake of needing something to compare their struggle to. Whether it’s white gays or white vegans, they’re ALWAYS comparing the treatment of animals or homophobia to lynching, slavery, and anything in general that the black community has suffered through, as if BLACK GAY PEOPLE DON’T EXIST.

When you got a dark knight in your party and they do a huge pull. and during this pull you see this lovely icon

that one right there. That pink and slightly purple and black thing. You know what that is? Blood Price. Essential skill to every huge pull for a dark knight. Now, what’s Blood Price do?

Oh. Hum. Restores partial MP when damage taken. Wait lemme zoom in on this.

Wait. Bit more.

So Blood Price restores partial MP when damage is taken. Although your dark knight shouldn’t be standing in AOE, auto attacks from monsters restore your MP every time they smack you around. During massive pulls, these auto attacks from all these mobs restore your mana to full. Which allows you to properly spam your aggro skills to mitigate these mobs. 

“Nikita, why are you telling me this?” 

Well you wanna know why?

Because almost 9 times out of 10 during these huge pulls when a DRK has Blood Price up, a WHM will run in and Holy everything. 

Now WHMs, what’s Holy do?

Right, let’s zoom in as before.

What happens when mobs are stunned? 

They don’t move. They don’t attack.

What happens when a DRK has Blood Price up and all the mobs are stunned?

You guessed it. YOUR DRK’S MANA IS DEPLETING. 

I understand you want to help. This is good. I encourage this. But please, for the love all that is holy (badumptiss) PLEASE WAIT TO HOLY AFTER YOU SEE BLOOD PRICE FALL OFF YOUR DARK KNIGHT.
