but usually related to other promotions
Pre order bonuses, Garo, any exclusive 1.0 items, any items tied to physical purchases of limited stuff and pvp stuff
basically
not a lot
and the exclusivity makes sense

since im playing a tank (DRK) i assume a healer chocobo would be the best ?
outer mural
healer chocobo is just the best to max out yes
priority is Healer, then DPS, then Tank
tank chocobo does not do enough damage to hold aggro
faint flare
!faq companion
spiral mango
oh yeah greens nvm
zinc orbitBOT
lone totem
since im playing a tank (DRK) i assume a healer chocobo would be the best ?
the dps chocobo is generally the best choice, because content you're doing that you can have your chocobo out can be out healed as you are a DRK
spiral mango
i just started shadowbringers, can i get greens from Crystarium ?
lone totem
DRK has a lot of tools that mitigates damage as well as your combos restoring hp and your overall self-sustain
twilit arch
Healer chocobo is generally more useful
lone totem
generally sure, but don't underestimate the damage of a dps choco
outer mural
^
twilit arch
while dps chocobo does ok dmg, its not going to be better than what you put out
outer mural
Healer Chocobo is more useful as a whole to have over the DPS chocobo
lone totem
it can be quite a lot especially if you're solo'ing boss fates
twilit arch
healer is just...in general more useful
spiral mango
can i get feathers from crystarium ?
outer mural
the additional DPS over just the healer chocobo is nice but generally not enough value for most to consider it straight-up better

hushed zealot
So long stretch wonder
Before Shadowbringers, and into it
How were Tank queues overall?
Just trying to get a sense of what to expect, for Healer queues, into EW
glossy flare
they were and are okay, aside from alliance raids
rarely longer than 5 minutes
and alliance raids are an exception because you have 3 of them on 24 people total, something healers do not suffer from
outer plank
Just trying to get a sense of what to expect, for Healer queues, into EW
first 2 weeks you can expect healer queues to be higher then normal but because, you know, healer, i dont think its gonna attract as many people as lets say reaper
there are alot more dps players willing to level reaper then sage first
regal pawn
Sage might actually ruin the healer queues for a while
Due to the virtue of being a cool healer
hushed zealot
Well i suppose the overall dumb wonder i got is:
Will healer queues get to DPS queue levels
regal pawn
Never
outer plank
day 1 maybe
regal pawn
They will not be instant for a while
But they will never be even close to tank-level
I'm fully expecting tank queues to actually get worse
hushed zealot
How so?
regal pawn
People will probably play tank assuming there's more dps and healer due to Sage and Reaper
They're gonna try to big brain it
But too many big brain
And it has no effect
faint flare
Healer/dps will be slightly worse for a day or so as people rush to level the new shit, but people often don't flat out change their main role when a new job comes
A small percentage does but it doesn't drastically affect ques past the first week

you use fight or flight before riot blade because it fits in another GCD into its buff window

You don't have much choice
Spard just want to play new jobs and they are willing to pay a skip
I'd say let them be
dusty crypt
Yeah I know the basic some what I haven't fought the ultimate weapon yet
warped nest
Ok, spard, what job do you have now, and how do you feel about it (what you like or don't like)
What do you look for in your new job
warped nest
Monk is getting a big rework in Endwalker (coming out in 5 weeks)
outer mural
it's a decently big rework yeah
rotation is still the same but has a new system to management and less ogcds in exchange for blitz and more skills
zinc orbitBOT
warped nest
Your raptor forms weaponskill (2nd combos) no longer needs positional
dusty crypt
For real awesome
warped nest
There's a new gauge where you can earn sticker based on the weaponskill you perform, and spending those stickers let you do new attacks
And it will be based on this skill
!action perfect balance
zinc orbitBOT
Powered by XIVAPI
warped nest
This will do the "allow execution a weaponskill that requires a certain form, without being in that form" in Endwalker, but it will interact with monk new gauge/mechanics to give them additional resources
Hmmm
OK, spard, here's a personal recommendation
Just taking a shot here
I will recommend you boosting DRG. Do look up a guide on YouTube on how to play one, we recommend weskalber.
Why Dragoon
A. It is a melee dps so it will still feel somewhat familiar.
B. It has long combos
C. You can save up gear for the new Endwalker melee job Reaper as Dragoon and Reaper shares the same armors. And you will be able to experience and learn a completely new job.
Just a recommendation. If you want to hop out of melee dps, and try out a completely different role. That's fine too
outer mural
if you needed to skip a job then yeah the best one would be DRG for basics and it has plenty of optimizaton
it's easy to pick up, and has room to optimize so i would agree wit hLC
otherwise if you don't necessarily need to use the skip, maybe check out Red Mage or Dancer
dusty crypt
Thank you guys I'll go dragoon
warped nest
If you are interested in summoner, i would suggest holding on boosting one right now because it too get a massive rework in Endwalker, much bigger than monk. It is essentially a new job.
raven bolt
Dragoon is the goldilocks dps IMO
outer mural
depends on you .do you want to experience the content of stormblood / shadowbringers before EW drops?
and are you on standalone launcher, or steam?
warped nest
@dusty crypt With your boosted DRG, I have two suggestions:
A. Watch weskalber beginner guide on YouTube
B. Find a striking dummy, remove all skills from your hotbar, add them back one by one while using them. This will "simulate" leveling up a Dragoon, and it helps you figure out button placement.
outer mural
just buy complete edition on steam
you may opt to go standalone since there is a massive sale right now if you are not too ar into the story
restartng is not that bad since you can just speedrun to where u were if ur still relatively early in the game
warped nest
They are in post HW
outer mural
ooh
well if you're that far and don't want to restart, buy complete edition on steam
that will be all you need, no strings attached
warped nest
If I may, complete edition is Starter (1-60 contents) + the latest expansion (which is Shadowbringers for now)
So later on, you will still need to get Endwalker
Side contents are all highly optional
If you don't feel compelled to do them, so just don't
Yes
uneven wasp
Sorta it's mostly after each expansion
warped nest
Recurring side contents for each expansion: raids, Alliance raids, optional trials and ex trials, relic weapons, crafting/gathering, beast tribes
Yup
Yeah we are not playing an RPG from the 90s here
No missable
(that word gives me anxiety)
queen fern
Well, there are some cutscenes that will be lost forever if you decide to skip them.
Just a word of warning.
So if it's your maiden voyage through the game, I recommend not skipping cutscenes.
No problem! I'm just saying this because my brother plays the game and skips through all the cutscenes since he only cares about gameplay and playing with his friend.

It ticks 200 every tick until duration is over

Hey im trying to level up my blue mage currently at 32. My free company has the heat of battle up. got the well rested bonus and eating food to have up to 63% more xp. now i have a level 80 WHM but for some reason i don't get an armoury bonus at all can someone help me with this issue that i have no clue what's going on?

BLU doesn't benefit from the armory bonus iirc

Using FoF before Riot blade feels wrong

why's it feel wrong

because it used to be used before goring blade in stormblood

fierce cedar
where have you been for two years
Apparently it's supposed to be used before riot blade
And it feels wrong
For the last 4 years I've always done
FoF, goring blade, THEN circle of scorn
lone totem
Apparently it's supposed to be used before riot blade
I am aware, it changed in shadowbringers
fierce cedar
Yeah I hate this
why?
What's the point?
It seems like it just makes it harder to time to last goring blade before FoF wears off
lone totem
whats your gcd?
fierce cedar
2.34
fierce cedar
I still don't know what the point of doing it before Riot Blade is
lone totem
I still don't know what the point of doing it before Riot Blade is
it's because in shadowbringers you follow the rule of q13
aiming for 13 buffed gcds
using fof early will result in 12
one less buffed gcd
thus resulting in lower damage overall
fierce cedar
Like, I wanna have enough time to get that last goring blade in before my FoF runs out incase I have to dodge mechanics
lone totem
2.40 is the golden gcd speed
hasty musk

Okay so you see that last Goring Blade before Requiescat? I sometimes miss that
hasty musk
i just relogged and it didn't fix it
and turning the setting on and off doesn't do anything?
lone totem
you just gotta pay attention
fierce cedar
Because I'm prioritizing dodging stuff
faint flare
Dodge into the boss
fierce cedar
Sometimes I am
lone totem
and those rare cases, can be filled with req uptime
faint flare
Unless it's a point blank where you have to back off
Always dodge into the boss or around
lone totem
what bosses are you dodging?

I'm having trouble with multiple classes, i look too much at the crossbar and miss mechanics. Is there some suggestion to adjust my hud so im not laser focused at the bottom of my screen? Maybe just put buttons that can proc and that have recasts at the top or something so that at least im looking around the screen?
lone totem
so dungeons and things like that aren't really rotation dependant
it's strictly for boss fights
split dust
this looks good, is it?
noble orbit
you can move everything around in the hud. position stuff in a way that works for you. it'll take some trial/error
split dust
aw
lone totem
doing them in dungeons is difficult because not only are you using aoe rotations, you are constantly "resetting" the fights because you are pulling new packs with cds still on cd
lone totem
but learning your aoe rotation is just as important
lone totem
they can be if you are not 100% confident in their attack patterns
fierce cedar
Copied Factory was also annoying
the 9S boss whenever he pulls up the Marx arms fucks up my rotation
lone totem
I can tell you however that every boss in the copied factory as a paladin can be 100% uptime'd
never disconnecting once
and also never getting hit
fierce cedar
I mean
faint flare
How does the arms fuck you
fierce cedar
If you have to pull the boss
faint flare
You have full uptime
fierce cedar
You run out of attack range
fierce cedar
Idk what stutter stepping is!
lone totem
so for pulling, you pull with Holy Spirit + Sprint
all bosses in the copied factory have an aggro range of 15m
faint flare
It's where you run away slightly, then move in when the gcd is almost back
lone totem
and holy spirit is 20m
faint flare
And meet the boss
lone totem
so once you're in hs range you can move a bit closer in
faint flare
So you can keep the gcd rolling
With proper stutter stepping you keep full uptime when moving bosses
lone totem
shield lob is 16m, I usually measure with shield lob (the moment you are able to shield lob a boss, you are in the ideal attack range for holy spirit)
faint flare
You can practice on mobs in the field
Just hit gcd, move away then move to meet them around like 2/3rds of your gcd
And you'll slowly be moving it
lone totem
if you find yourself in a position where you cannot stutter step
just get out of range and move the boss
and next time you do the boss, remember to do it
its practice
remember boss rotations and properly positioning is what being a tank is
faint flare
You have full uptime in like all fights in nier
Unless you get a shit pattern on Tower 3rd boss
fierce cedar
You really have to like, 100 percent memorize the order in which the boss does stuff
faint flare
During barriers
lone totem
sure, 100% memorization is ideal, but a bit excessive in a lot of cases
fierce cedar
Like, I'm soloing Shiva for glam weapons, and I realized, I need to predict when she does that big AOE that requires you to run away from her
lone totem
what you need to know is what the boss will do next, and what you as a tank need to do
fierce cedar
Using it as a training dummy
lone totem
not what the healers are gunna do, or what the dps is doing specifically
a general understanding of what they are doing is nice
little swift
You don't the tell is there that shows you what they're casting too
You don't have to ha e the timeline of a boss memorised
Knowing what mechanics helps
lone totem
if you want some good practice, try Titan EX synced
little swift
But there's no need to memorize
You can learn to react to telegraph's as well as the castbar
lone totem
Titan EX and ||Sephirot EX|| teach very well
or more modern, the second half of ||Ruby Weapon EX||
fierce cedar
Hmm
You know
maybe I'm overthinking it
I don't know how much people care about missing a GCD or whatever
Just play as best I can

as paladin, you can fix those problems
fierce cedar
As long as I try

You care when optimising

I don't need to be a perfect player

small steps go a long way

I think 99 percent of players don't give a fuck if you accidentally miss a GCD because you had to dodge an AOE and were out of range, they care more if you died to mechanics and fell way further behind.

But I don't want to optimize so much to the point where I'm stressing over the game and not having fun anymore.
lone totem
you just need to be in the right mindset
as long as you want to improve yourself, you will
little swift
Theres optimizing, and there's baseline improvements
lone totem
and you'll want baseline first
fierce cedar
Well that's what I think I'm doing
little swift
100% uptime isn't optimizing
fierce cedar
Finding out what I should improve on
lone totem
it's the bare minimum in fact
fierce cedar
I feel like once I do that, that's when the game stops being fun.
hasty musk
personally
what I do is use ACT but put it somewhere where I can't see it while doing a duty
so the only way to check it is it to actively sabotage myself while doing mechanics by looking away
hasty musk
I get it
but it's definitely possible to use external tools that tell you how good you're doing and focus on it as a tool for improvement
Don't let other people being shitty about something convince you that you have to also be shitty if you use it

warped nest
But probably don't do it when your tank level is way too low
last mural
Yeah, otherwise that's a huge chunk of xp that could've easily be gotten from a dungeon run
Just make sure u set up your WHM's PvP hotbar. You could do it while inside frontline, but it'd be better to go to wolves den in La Noscea and set it there before entering

PvP is in groups of levels? Like 1-20 20-30 etc or?

Eventually your jobs will start to get one level from 3-4 dungeon run, that's when all these exp comparisons comes in and makes sense

In PvP, it is all normalized
