Hi, new player here who's planning to purchase the game tomorrow. I heard world travelling is a thing within the same DC, so in that case, are there any downsides to choosing different worlds? For context, I heard that Kujata and Tonberry are the go-to worlds for english speakers in the JP DC, but seeing as we can't create new characters there most of the time (from the Lodestone indicator), I might want start on different worlds under the Elemental DC. But if I do so, I'm not sure what I'll miss out on

Doesn't matter

Level 70 maps were introduced in Stormblood, so they come from Stormblood nodes.

the level cap for shadowbringers is 80. If you want 70 maps you want to be in stormblood areas

It's not as though we know everything off the top of our heads, I'm just giving a tip for future items
if you input the name there's commonly people who've helpfully commented exactly where you can find them under the item. You can ask here as well.
boreal storm
But like lvl 70 maps from the lvl 70 expansion...just makes sense

When the first response was "there probably is, but i don't use it". I went ahead and took my question as a wash. I'll keep to myself from now on lol.
Thanks for the help though.
pulsar escarp
Don't let it impact you too much, the usual response from here is good.
I'd rather let a question go silent for a while rather than answering with 'lol idk'
manic thorn
I got a laugh out of it, that was more than enough of an answer lol.
I jsut tried my normal lvl 70 node, and it wasn't there. So I googled where alvl 70 node was, went to amh, and it wasn't dropping so I asked here. Good to know that i can't just find nay lvl 70 node now.

Yeah, I totally understand now. I didn't even notice I was in a SHB zone until I couldn't remember the zone name and it came to me.
Yeah like I said. I went to Yanxia like normal, but didn't see the lvl 70 node I normally go to. So then I just googled a list of nodes by levels and picked the first 70 one I saw not knowing if it would drop or not being in a SHB zone. Mined like 5 things and decided to ask. I understand now. ❤️

tank: easy rotation, less responsibility for dps, has to time mitigation
dps: "...
Take that dps thingy for example, A class that needs 80% uptime to do 8k dps or a class with 99% uptime to do 8k Dps which one is easier for dps check to progress, u get my point right? I know u can play all class if you good but that's not what i ask but it's k i guess w/e xD
remote lintel
uptime is fight dependent and any good melee can get as close to 100% uptime as they can
gritty oracle
Normal raids don't have the thing where you forfeir loot for lower floors once you get something, right?
remote lintel
and a shitty ranged dps can do shitty uptime if they dont know what theyre doing
@gritty oracle correct
sacred oracle
The thing is there are class that u dont need to be good to do same amount, it's just an example
remote lintel
yes you do
sacred oracle
And that one is easier
remote lintel
of course you need to be good at your class in endgame content what
sacred oracle
U dont get my point
faint flare
If you're bad at your job then you're bad and no one wants you holding them back
boreal storm
Also it’s kinda griefing, in high end content
faint flare
Dps isn't that different between jobs
remote lintel
there is no job in this game that does most of the work for you
player skill determines how good the job performs
it doesnt matter how easy or difficult it is
player skill >>>>>> everything else
robust crow
think he's trying to say a bad bard is gonna be more useful than a bad sam
heavy wadi
you 100% have to be playing optimally or as close to optimally as possible in savage.
robust crow
but in the end both are bad and you wouldn't want either in the party lol
sacred oracle
No one gets my point like lol
remote lintel
think he's trying to say a bad bard is gonna be more useful than a bad sam
thats false anyway
faint flare
I swapped from smn to reaper this tier and still kept 95% uptime even while playing safe
heavy wadi
think he's trying to say a bad bard is gonna be more useful than a bad sam
neither of those would be better.
faint flare
As a first time raiding melee
sacred oracle
Legit
remote lintel
yeah but the buffs wouldnt make up for the shitty dps the bard is outputting lmao
robust crow
certainly wouldn't
boreal storm
Freestlying SAM in Savage
sacred oracle
For example 90% reaper(bad reaper) does more damage than 99% dragoon(good), which make reaper more chill and easier to meet dps check, and more ppl can pick it to play, that's my point
robust crow
Freestlying SAM in Savage
how 2 get blacklisted on PF
remote lintel
For example 90% reaper(bad reaper) does more damage than 99% dragoon(good), whic...
that is false
robust crow
that's just plain wrong lol
sacred oracle
It is true

For example 90% reaper(bad reaper) does more damage than 99% dragoon(good), whic...
factually incorrect.
robust crow
and since when is a 90 parsing reaper "bad" lol
sacred oracle
Talking about uptime %
worn flume
huh??
remote lintel
and if you're basing your opinion on current fflogs you should know that: 1. we're only 3 weeks in so shitty logs will still show up as better than average and 2. the amount of people who upload to fllogs is extremely small compared to the whole population so your sample is tiny
robust crow
then you are even more wrong
heavy wadi
Talking about uptime %
That's even more wrong.
worn flume
you can have 100% uptime and still do a dogshit rotation
boreal storm
I’m just gonna say this
robust crow
no class missing 10% uptime is gonna beat another class with full uptime
remote lintel
^
heavy wadi
^
faint flare
Uptime isn't everything if the buttons you're pressing are wrong
boreal storm
Probably should go to #endgame-lounge or something
remote lintel
this must be your first ever savage tier lol
remote lintel
Probably should go to <#420652632454070304> or something
its still a question so it counts
sacred oracle
no class missing 10% uptime is gonna beat another class with full uptime
i mean i can just went on ff log and see this this is the leastest one i found randomly
worn flume
you have no idea what you're talking about

What a surprise, a melee does more than a caster

why would their be guilt? ppl waited for me to watch cs when i was a sprout , now i wait for ppl now they are the sprout watching the cs
just change the face

oh no im just feel bad when ppl have to wait
I feel the same way. when I was doing first time stuff, I always skipped CS and came back to watch it later
I'd rather not make others wait on me

the worst offender of this in recent memory is Tower

Yea I remember the boss dying before I got out of some cutscenes in arr dungeons 
at least the fights in CT are a bit longer

QUESTION : With the weekly limited collectable quests (the 2 in Idyllshire and 1 in Eulmore) is there a set number of turn ins needed to get to the next rank or is it based on something like the quest level or collectable rating?
faint flare
They need the number of items in order
3,6,6,6,6
boreal storm
So 4.5 weeks technically
sleek needle
Can do max 6 per person and 12 total turn ins per week
livid peak
ok thank you for the info
what happeneds when i finish them, can I still hand an item in for the scripts or will it just be over
warm snow
You unlock bonus deliveries
half hare
you can hand in for bonus scripes or extra exp if you still need that
warm snow
Their requested item becomes random every week
And can randomly be a bonus with extra rewards
Also story and other bonuses for finishing the stories but I'll let you find those for yourself
livid peak
is it random only when i finish?
half hare
yup
warm snow
Only when you finish

from till you you finish their story its a set item they want

BLM 70/80 question: when to use sharpcast?

Next question is then when to use said procs from fire/thunder

For movement primarily
Use Thunder when the dot drops or before the proc falls to maintain uptime
Use fire before swapping off it

So far I’ve just been squeezing the free fire iii for movement/end of fire phase since thunder procs tend to reliably happen

all msq dungeons from shb onwards you can do with a Trust

How they do dungeon mechanics varies from npc to npc

is that it? is it any better or faster? or only people vs npcs
boreal storm
And the runs are slower than with real people
.
regal pawn
npcs - faster queue, slower run
players - slower queue, faster run
faint flare
And chests only have 1 item
regal pawn
unless you're healer/tank
then it's fast queue and fast run to do it with players
Though, trusts do comment on the dungeon
and they're actually pretty fun

oh im healer so it's ok lol ty

Doesn’t matter
ok thanks

Taking everything you learnt in phase 1 and putting it together

you can heal through fucking up the shapes, but combined with the aoe on each person fucking it up becomes lethal
