I split up my Forecaster Guide into pages for possibly better readability! The Forecaster is the S-rank Hunt found in Living Memory.

#FFXIV #FFXIVArt
the Forecaster guide by floon [2D cel-shaded Drawing of the S-rank Hunt Elite Mark The Forecaster from the Living Memory zone in Final Fantasy XIV] Drawn, written, and designed by Floon Drif of Faerie 1. The fight starts with a tutorial of sorts. You will see each variation of weather status and which AOEs correspond to them. These will be telegraphed! 2. The Forecaster will have a long dialogue about the forecast, but you can just look at the icons on its status bar. They should be in the same order that the mechanics will go off in. The Forecaster: "Reacquiring data... Thunderclouds will give way to ferocious gales then sizzling heat!" 82.5% The Forecaster [Cast Bar] [Status Symbols representing Hyperelectricity, Gale-force Winds, and Wildfire Conditions, as they would display below a boss's HP bar in-game] When the cast “Weather Channel” goes off, the AOEs will go off in sequence untelegraphed. Hyperelectricity -> Gale-force Winds -> Wildfire Conditions 3. The Forecaster may have a secondary dialogue about an error. Read this one to see which weather is being overwritten. The new weather condition will take the place of the overwritten one. The Forecaster: "<bloop> eRrOr! Revising forecast... Expect blizzard conditions, not violent zephyrs!" (the words "blizzard" and "violent zephyrs" are underlined) 82.5% The Forecaster [Cast Bar] [Status Symbols representing Hyperelectricity, Gale-force Winds, Wildfire Conditions, and a glitchy version of Blizzards, as they would display below a boss's HP bar in-game] [Drawing of my viera wol with squinting eyes] "I'm a FFXIV player. I don't know how to read." Hyperelectricity -> ("Gale-force Winds" crossed out) Blizzards -> Wildfire Conditions Quick Reference A table with the headers on the left-hand side that signify: Icon, Status Name, Name When Overwritten, AOE Shape Status Name: Hyperelectricity Name When Overwritten: Shocking Storms AOE Shape: [A circle surrounding a boss hitbox] Out is Safe Status Name: Wildfire Conditions Name When Overwritten: Searing Sunshine AOE Shape: [The cell of the table is filled except a safe circle inside the boss hit box] In is Safe Status Name: Gale-force Winds Name When Overwritten: Violent Zephyrs AOE Shape: [a giant rectangle starting from the front-half of the boss hitbox] Back is Safe Status Name: Blizzards Name When Overwritten: Wintry Woe AOE Shape: [A Giant Plus sign shape centered on the boss hitbox] Intercardinals Safe The Forecaster also does “Flood Conditions,” which are just telegraphed, targeted AOEs that you can run out of. Thank you for reading!

Two items that were previously sold out are now back up on my shop- this is the VERY LAST of my stock until I can order more (and I'm not sure when that will be- or IF I will!)

The G'raha sticker sheet and Espurr keychain can be found at: www.etsy.com/shop/flarebo...

I made a visual guide explaining the fight mechanics to The Forecaster, a Rank S Elite Hunt Mark in the Living Memory zone in #FFXIV #FF14. I hope this helps anyone who is fighting this powerful mark at the odd hours when you'll see lots of mechanics. :)

It was very crowded at the stationery expo in LA and I'm not surprised because stationery is something anyone can enjoy. The event was well organized and a unique experience! ♥️

This is why when I went to the Osaka eorzea cafe I got the safest option I saw on the menu 😭 surely they cannot screw up Japanese curry on rice
Photo of a dish from eorzea cafe. It is a mound of rice with curry poured over the top and broccoli, grape tomatoes, and potato wedges placed on the sides. The rice part resembles the tokkapchi/mudman/mudpie creature from FFXIV.
