[versed kayak]

wiping to greed 10 mins in, how about no

[random needle]

We keep memeing during LR though and it's making me crash out

[remote gate]

yes I did

that sounds like literal cancer

[dreamy whale]

[versed kayak]

oh it is

[remote gate]

its like golden bahamut phase but somehow even worse

[random needle]

Oops, someone walked into an orb while going out. Oops, DPS couldn't decide on a tower and the chains are wrong. Oops, bad callout and the chains exploded. Oops, melee got too far in and the cleave hit the guy with 4 stacks. Oops, someone walked into their orb early.

[versed kayak]

spoilers for saph: ||we just solve the full party stack by having tanks invuln because fuck that shit||

[random needle]

That's our intention as well tbf

[versed kayak]

we tried finding a better solution but ugh

[random needle]

It's still a metric fuckton of damage to deal with though

[versed kayak]

and having less to heal is nice

[random needle]

And if people mess up the timing on their debuff cleanses and don't get in their party stacks in time, say goodnight

[remote gate]

was this mechanic better to deal with back in the day

[random needle]

I strongly doubt it

[versed kayak]

we also wiped to provoke during akh mhorn once, that was sad

[random needle]

I don't think healer kits have changed that much between ShB and now?

[remote gate]

are you at least having fun sapp/siti

[versed kayak]

yeah its a fun fight :D

heck, I'm doing it with two other groups too atm

[remote gate]

at least youre having a good time

[random needle]

I honestly just want out of the fight at this point, I joined this static on the session we cleared e7s and we've been stuck on this fight for like two months

Part of that is because of roster troubles, mind, but it's still the longest they've been stuck on any fight

[versed kayak]

yeah it's been 2 months for my group too at this point, its quite the consistency check

its also longer than our uwu clear at this point

[remote gate]

speaking of uwu i joined a raider server in hopes of getting a tea static and the ultimate theyre doing is uwu

they made me an OT fill

😔

please dont make me go back to it

[versed kayak]

watched a group try and solve dragonhead for 20 mins today or something, they didnt see the puddle it leaves

its great

paused on a frame where its clearly visible like 10 times too

[random needle]

It doesn't help that this is the second ever fight I've done with them, and they normally clear stuff a lot faster, I just got caught in the worst place at the worst time I guess

On the bright side, it is sorta giving me practice GCD mapping

[versed kayak]

the previous fights are a lot easier and shorter tbh

E7S is just hot garbage for 80% of it but still

idk what they were thinking with that one

[random needle]

I liked e7s honestly :(

[versed kayak]

I wish the first few mechs werent just a waiting room

[random needle]

Though I came in right at the end of their prog

[versed kayak]

or at least had some randomness

when you're doing the first portal mech over and over and it literally never changes it becomes boring quite quick

[random needle]

That's sorta where I'm at with e8s, everything feels except Light Rampant until transition

[versed kayak]

At least theres A/B randomness

which E7S kinda lacks

only thing annoying about E8 is that damn cutscene

[random needle]

And the music for p1 sucks

Which, when your party keeps memeing to LR, you hear a lot

[versed kayak]

idk who thought putting the hard part of a fight behind a 1 minute unskippable cutscene was a good idea

yeah for some fights I just started turning it off

[random needle]

I think e8s has to have one of the biggest jumps in music quality from p1 to p2

By contrast, p12s has one of the biggest dips in quality

[versed kayak]

hm havent done p12 yet

we'll get there...eventually

gotta get through the 3 tiers before it first

[random needle]

Though in fairness, most things are a step down from Athena, The Tireless One

[round burrow]

Reminds me..

Do I have to spam the second step for all my weapons..

[wicked delta]

For DT?

No

Roulette slop is one step

You buy all future weapons with poetics

No

Well you do use that currency just not poetics

Man its almost 5 am my ass isnt making sense

[versed kayak]

tomestones

[versed kayak]

go eep

[wicked delta]

I want to but insomnia beating my ass

[versed kayak]

aw

[round burrow]

I meant this For all future weapons

Like imagine I did it for gunbreaker, do I have to do it again for all other weapons?

[wicked delta]

Again

No

Its one step

You do it once and never again for that character

[loud nymph]

it's a one time step

just like the demiatmas are

you do it once and then future relics are just 1500 tomes

[wicked delta]

Im not looking forward to doing this step on EU because I don’t like doing roulettes there

[proper cave]

Transfer that character to NA and back once you finish lol

[wicked delta]

Hell no

[vestal hollow]

toby hates us

.

[wicked delta]

My EU char is a goth bunny woman that would just open me up to even more freaks in my tells than usual

[wicked delta]

Its morally correct to hate NA players

[flint ledge]

[whole estuary]

Isn't it just sacks? The sacks aren't different from the ones you usually get

[torn kindle]

I love that my weekly activities now include doing a full run of a deep dungeon /gen

SE knows what I like

[deft yarrow]

TIL you can use Occult Berserker Rage to immune the forced march debuff in the mindflayer fight

[granite stag]

Yes you can

But that boss rarely pops up

[alpine plover]

Hardest boss

[tall field]

My fav is using suspend and cheesing the garula point blank mechanics

[wicked delta]

I don’t know but they’re so fucking stupid that it flips around into being funny for me

[trim frost]

bro uses his strategy

[daring pine]

@trim frost @wicked delta friend gave me 6m gil so i just need to get a bit more and hopefully i can merc a clear for m7s

c41 lm i trust 🙏

[trim frost]

trust

surely nothing will go wrong

[daring pine]

well hopefully i can get some friends to help

no clear = no money

idk what would be a fair amount though

2m gil per?

[odd beacon]

huh

I thought I was tripping or lag when it happened the first time but it happened again

but M8S just canceled the 2nd raidwide before enrage castbar

[daring pine]

wait what

[odd beacon]

yea

I thought it always commits

[daring pine]

like the boss just..didnt do it?

im confused

[odd beacon]

It was mid-cast but it cancelled when it died

I could've sworn in the past it always casts it regardless

[daring pine]

oh it died mid cast

thats pretty nice

[odd beacon]

in phase 1

[daring pine]

oo

p1

[odd beacon]

yea

[daring pine]

i cant wait to climb in the ring

as soon as i can get out of dd hell

[trim frost]

[daring pine]

but im so close to clear 😔

[thin fox]

another set done

kind of getting beast mode luck with the rez poms

on this set + the last i've been able to have a rez up while still having 3 leftover

• have a bark unused

probably going to use bark on cactus boss because i want to do as little of that fight as possible

boss i'm the least confident in

[torn kindle]

Wow I didn’t know this was in the first light sacks

Just stop being poor, people

[wicked delta]

Cactus boss so easy till I get hit with the nastiest snapshot known to man

[wicked delta]

When the class war inevitably breaks out im robbing you first

[thin fox]

cactus i actually have to think which is monka

[visual geyser]

Real!

Haven’t sold anything on the mb in a whi

[primal charm]

heyo this is my first time talking in the server, can anyone help me clear E4S for the skyslipper mount? Want to get it so I can drive my sprout friend around. I'm in the JP data center though

[visual geyser]

Should do more OC runs

You can’t use Party Finder?

Idk if there’s many people here that play on Jpn

[primal charm]

using party finder, about 20 mins elapsed since then and no one has joined

[visual geyser]

Rip

[wicked delta]

Im not on JP so I can’t elp

[primal charm]

gahhhhh

[visual geyser]

Same 😭

[primal charm]

I don't think I can travel to NA or EU either

[visual geyser]

Nope you can’t

[wicked delta]

Can you travel to OCE or

[primal charm]

I can travel to OCE yea

[wicked delta]

I could hop on in like

10 minutes

And get a quick kill for you

[primal charm]

fr?

I would really appreciate it, thank you 😭

[visual geyser]

Should only need 1 level 100 player

[primal charm]

I just wanna drive my friends around and look cool

[wicked delta]

Yea I got nothing else to do (only if im still subbed tho )

[primal charm]

I'm a casual who can offer a lvl 93 DNC or a lvl 94 RPR

[wicked delta]

Just bring whichever has ur best gear

[primal charm]

alrighty i'll ship my son over to OCE first

[thin fox]

on sge 2 target is it better to aoe dot or single target dot twice

[wicked delta]

woaw

[boreal pumice]

yh first light sacks only have 4 possible items

[kind elm]

E4S needs a couple

the only one that can solo it rn is DRK

like 3 people at 100 has been most consistent for me

[boreal pumice]

only person you can trust is yourself

[kind elm]

2 people at 100 is doable but it relies on ppl having atleast some brain about the mechs

[primal charm]

i'm gonna wait in Limsa

[wicked delta]

Well idk what ur name is lol

[vestal hollow]

worqor boredmor

[boreal pumice]

so what was the story?

[zealous meteor]

wonder if the dps disconnected right at the last boss or if they did a good chunk of the dungeon with one dps

[remote gate]

https://tenor.com/view/antman-what-the-hell-happened-here-avengers-gif-18240147

[wicked delta]

apparently the other dps felt like it was taking too long

and left

on the last boss...?

[ripe bough]

I had this yesterday doing Holminster Switch, one of our DPS DCed midway to the second boss, vote kicked when they didn't return after we cleared the 2nd boss and some of the trash after the 2nd boss, and we didn't get a replacement DPS until the last boss.

[zealous meteor]

oof

tbf 3 manning a pull or even a boss is really fun

[wicked delta]

gulp

[zealous meteor]

shoutout to all the prae runs where either the healer or tank disconnected at the start so we did the first part without one
always get a replacement halfway through the cutscene though

[remote gate]

astro forgot how to astro

[zealous meteor]

it's SO EASY to at least spam malefic

[ripe bough]

Deranged behavior, leave after the 1st and 2nd packs take forever to die, not at the last boss lol

[wicked delta]

That’s what I was thinking like… huh ????

[zealous meteor]

yeah just finish it at that point for the rewards

[ripe bough]

It's also a current leveling dungeon, people are probably not going to have BIS gear

[vestal hollow]

gonna be real and play devil's advocate maybe they had to go to work or something

dognose

[kind elm]

[ripe bough]

[wicked delta]

I don’t think it was that

Considering how low dps was

I think the person legitimately just left because the group was bad

Lmao

[vestal hollow]

no thats what i mean, they expected a fast run but it wasnt and they ran out of time

[wicked delta]

Ah fair

[sleek moon]

a few more levels and these people will be terrorizing your nearest party finder

[vestal hollow]

Anyways toby I hope youre Ready.

[wicked delta]

Someone just insta left xelphatol

Wtf

[ripe bough]

I had the level 95 dungeon refill, the healer left after the first pack. I asked what happened, they said the healer left without saying anything. Once we started killing things I immediately saw why the previous healer left, no mits and shit was taking forever to die lol. Still powered through because when your party is shit, you get to actually do stuff as a healer but like.

[vestal hollow]

felt

i hate xelphatol

feels like it takes forever

[dapper zealot]

True but like a quick message in chat would be nice. Had that in prae last week

[sly basin]

i had 1 like this and the tank said something like "it hasnt been a problem before!" hmmmmm yeah everyone else was being too polite and carried u

u should use ur mit buttons

[zealous meteor]

i've only left a dungeon in progress twice
once i queued as healer for the 71 dungeon, not realising i was far too tired to do it

after a wipe because i wasn't paying attention i left while apologising profusely for queueing in the first place

the other one was a wanderers palace run where the tank never turned on stance and i constantly had aggro (as healer). after asking multiple times i just left

both before the fist boss

[vestal hollow]

i believe toby said they thought it was taking too long so that suggests the dps did say something

[ripe bough]

I think the only dungeon I actively hate is Copperbell (Hard), mostly because no one does the mechanics on the 2nd and 3rd bosses

[sleek moon]

idk call me antisocial but nobody is owed any reason before i press leave duty lol

its just randoms i met for 10 mins

[ripe bough]

Oh that's a lie, both versions of Hullbreaker suck

[wicked delta]

The astro was a battle mentor

So was the gunbreaker

[sly basin]

every once and awhile i run into one of those too, no stance and prob no chat

i think they should auto have chatbubbles enabled so they can at least see those

[ripe bough]

Burger king crowns for everyone

[zealous meteor]

i didn't say anything in the second one, for the first one i just felt So Bad about it though

[sly basin]

i usually jsut say tyfp and dip

[sleek moon]

yeah that one id probably do too, mostly to apologize for the fuck ups

[sly basin]

theres no point in me explaining why im leaving

[sleek moon]

you know in PF id probably say tyfp but in any bad DF duty I just leave without looking back

i dont trust myself to keep the snark to a low level

[sly basin]

ohhh i was thinking of PF, ive dipped from many pfs lmfao... usually its ppl in a farm who arent farm ready and i dont think me going "im leaving because this guy has no idea wtf hes doing" i think the others know usually

tho actually i did have a funny one once where someone did say that and so the pl kicked that person (that was wanting a carry)

[zealous meteor]

yeah ig it's just. am i leaving because i fucked up or because others did

[vestal hollow]

tyfp 💔

[sly basin]

i want to type emojis sooooo bad

pls se add emojis

[zealous meteor]

pls yoship add neofoxes

[sly basin]

what is a neofox..

Best I can do for you is a looping gif that still has the cursor and play button visible

[sly basin]

heres the video itself, why did he make this lmfao

i'm imagining ffxiv goblins and i could not imagine siding against them

i guess baldurs gate 3 goblins are worse

I HAD THAT LAST WEEK

queue into AR roulette
time elapsed 0m
ok guess i'm doing crystal tower

this bro makes u suck his toes or u can kill him

so yes i kill him

[zealous meteor]

ok yeah ill kill him

brayflox? i could never kill ehr

not even after the cheese

[boreal pumice]

false its kiss his toes and you should kill him for a movement ring

[wicked delta]

I died to autos.

I’m a dancer.

[sleek moon]

as an orbonne enjoyer id fucking dip if i joined in prog for mentor

unless you have the relic quest active

[boreal pumice]

i have dipped in prog for orbonne

[ripe bough]

Orbonne is so much fun, makes me feel alive when half the alliance dies to dumb mechanics

[sleek moon]

doing mentor rou that's all you're gonna see outside hests

people dying to dumb mechanics

[wicked delta]

I just got recognized

I cant

Don’t perceive me im bad

[vestal hollow]

oh hi toby

fancy seeing you here

[sly basin]

hmmmmmm u can suck it tho iirc to steal his ring

[wicked delta]

[sly basin]

i do wanna my next playthru different approaches to encounters

ik the goblins who are hiding in wait u can just... walk up to them?? and theres a little cutscene apparently

[loud nymph]

usually there's a perception check to see them in hiding

[wicked delta]

[loud nymph]

that one 8 person guildhest

calling it

[wicked delta]

worse somehow

[loud nymph]

I have no memory of that one

is that where you fight greg

[wicked delta]

No

[loud nymph]

I always confuse it with the other ARR Hildibrand trial

[wicked delta]

You fight an octopus

[loud nymph]

or the other other ARR Hildibrand trial

[thin fox]

had to burn a bark on this one

I was carrying around two so I at least have a spare if I need it for later

I generally try only spend a bark on a boss I think I'm bad at

[thin tartan]

can u lock in

[thin fox]

[tired egret]

not just that, but a pervy octopus (and that thing that blows you away in the Gold Saucer)

[worldly grotto]

The thing that what?

[dapper zealot]

Any way the wind blows

Sneeze boy

[boreal pumice]

most annoying part of this is losing focus if your doing no poms 8 mins of repeat mechs

[random needle]

Shrimply stay away from the big boys

[boreal pumice]

just 29 floors to go

[thin fox]

i usually just go with steel for the autos

i run strength/haste if i find extras

i'm playing conservative because i want to guarantee i can have strength + haste + steel for the final 3 bosses

idrc about poms for the floors because i'm picto so i nuke things before they become an issue

[boreal pumice]

pretty much same unless im short on time , im not to worried about autos i regen enough

[thin fox]

so far i've always hit the boss with >30m left

the longest i've taken was this set (51-60) where i got to the boss with 31m left

[boreal pumice]

i got to 70 with like 28 ish mins left

[thin fox]

poms r probably more annoying for tank/healer

because you kinda need the strength poms for the floors

just to get through them at an acceptable pace

[boreal pumice]

im also popping food for that lil extra

[thin fox]

i use food just 4 the hp

[boreal pumice]

theirs also the rng of the candle things or gettimg feo to help

[thin fox]

i only go for the votive if its directly in my path

feo i only spend if i find extras

rn i have 1 bark and 1 poisonfruit (i spent 1 bark on the cactus)

i wasn't planning to spend bark on cactus but i got hit by two mechanics fairly quickly and took 2 vulns so i got scared and popped it

i didn't end up getting hit by mechs again so i didn't rly need it but i liked the confidence boost so its fine

cyclops i'm not too scared of

i'm a little scared of f90

i was rly bad at that fight in matched

f99 idgaf because can just practice

[boreal pumice]

chaos isnt to bad should be easier as a range

[thin fox]

and f80 is free

i have a q about f90 not sure if u know

when he does the front/back or side cleaves

is there a safe spot on both sides

or can there only be 1 side which has a safe spot

on both non-cleaved sides

[boreal pumice]

its just honestly looking at where the lasers are pointed and what hes doing their should always be 2 safe spots

[thin fox]

if there's always a safe spot on both free sides it'll be fine then

i wasns't sure in matched so i kept panicking and trying to correct myself which just led to me getting hit lol

[boreal pumice]

you got plenty of time just dont panic to much about uptime and work the out mech then its bk to ez dodging

[whole estuary]

just solve the parts 1 at a time yah

[thin fox]

that's why i'm not scared of cyclops cuz i know if i get there with time i can just max safety mechs

cyclops only fucks you if you greed casts tbh

[whole estuary]

f90 has no puzzles

[boreal pumice]

i died to him earlier but that was due to me being to fast on the mechs

[thin fox]

imo

i only put f10 above free because those adds are fucking awful on any job that can't nuke them reliably

[boreal pumice]

aka any healer

id honestly move f20 into free and f99 into fair

[thin fox]

this is just cuz of my exp on picto but

f20 wass NUKING me with autos lol

f20 is the only fight so far where i've legit been chugging pots on cd

[boreal pumice]

i felt more squishy on rpr but on sam its like ok hit me il just regen it while your casting mechs

[zealous meteor]

i can't get over the cactuar's mustache

Floor 50 boss is the only boss I fear when doing my solo attempt

[zealous meteor]

just did the floor 50 boss. yeah it sucks

[sick dirge]

yea

glad ive been in parties that can obliterate it right before the second loop of mechanics

[whole estuary]

that one has scarier visuals than mechs

but the visuals are pretty scary...

@wicked delta dude

tobi

u wanna see the party damage for the reclear i just did

[rapid whale]

oh boi

contentge

[sleek moon]

because sprouts definitely will pay 500k for bosses that can be killed in 3 seconds

[rapid whale]

isnt that reportable

[sleek moon]

also yes it is lol

[rapid whale]

i thought you were allowed to offer gil for help but not allowed to offer services

[daring pine]

xdd

xddddddd

[raw sand]

@rapid whale bappoo

i need ur picto wisdom

[rapid whale]

hi

[rapid whale]

seems kinda normal no

o

wait

nvm

[daring pine]

lol

[raw sand]

Like what do u actually do with motifs between the odd minute especially for the moog one

I know we supposed to have a madeen/ mog for 2 min but like

[rapid whale]

in general u wanna just paint them whenever u can and it's worth using hammer again

[raw sand]

ah

so try to use a madeen every min then?

[rapid whale]

uhhhh

other than opener and iirc 8min? every 2min should be a madeen

so yea mog beam whenever

[raw sand]

oh

kk so just motif it basically off cooldown and then hold for 2 min ?

im guessing we dont need to save any kind of gauge for 2 min right

[rapid whale]

ideally u enter a 2min w/ a comet

[raw sand]

since starry gives us a free palette use anyway?

[rapid whale]

are you using 2.48s or 2.5

[raw sand]

ah ya ive been doing that at least

2.48

cause compensating for bad ping

[rapid whale]

with 2.48 you can get a final comet out iirc at the end of everything

but with ping maybe not

but yea pct v simpo like that

theres a bit of min maxing you can do with like starting on 2 of 123 but thats so gcd mapping dependant not sure if worth trying to learn at first

[raw sand]

yeah i gotcha

[rapid whale]

so you'd get 2 comets and 23 + prism

instead of 1 comet, 123, prism

but thats like giga min mxa

[raw sand]

prob wont care enough to do that haha

altho i tend to start my 2 min with both last cast of palette and comet up

[rapid whale]

yea that still beats 12

and it's like what a 30 potency diff overall

[raw sand]

but then again ive been yoloing it so its not consistent

[rapid whale]

so nbd either way lmao

[raw sand]

okie so

use motif it on cd until holding mog for 2 min

[rapid whale]

it b asically comes down to how much gauge you'd end a fight with vs how many holies you can do to make sure you enter the 2min when you want

[raw sand]

use hammers off cd ideally

[rapid whale]

cuz like you can say 6 holies = lost set of subtractive but if you never have time to cast those before fight ends /shrug

[raw sand]

yeah gotcha

ive been sprint slidecasting to compensate most things but

holies honestly not too bad

since its like 13 second of panic movement

xd

[rapid whale]

which mech

[raw sand]

ah ive been winging solo dd with pct lol

[rapid whale]

cuz depending on the fight i sometimes skip the hammer and only use it right as it's about to overcap on 2min cuz i need the movement later

[raw sand]

so far not that successful but it made me wanna try this class for other fights

[rapid whale]

oic

dd i got no clue havent even started yet

but yea basically just dont let it overcap ezpz

pct designed so well it's kinda hard to mess up tbf

even during 2mins you ahve a lot of freedom

as long as you get the 5 starry casts etc you're gucci like on ee2 you would use hammers outside of your circle, then go back in after it resolved

comet otw out, 2 hammers to let ee2 resolve, slide back into circle to finish rest

stuff like that

[raw sand]

Ah okay

I guess for movement heavy stuff during 2 min

It’s mostly a matter of the leyline placement then

[rapid whale]

yea

[raw sand]

Since hammer and comet+ starry give us like 5 gcd of movement

[rapid whale]

like on m6s you gotta read the pattern -> know where the safe spot would be on like 3rdish pop -> place it there

[raw sand]

And 6 with swift

Ah yup got it

[rapid whale]

getting perfect 2min off during cactus as pct feels good

you watch everyone else fuck around at north but play ddr to stay within your leylawn

i almost exclusively use swift cast motifs for movement unless there's forced downtime like spotlight in m5s or stage transition for m7s

then i will either swift out a subtractive or if it's not up cuz i alr banked a comet i'll swift cast a rainbow drip

[versed kayak]

[sleek moon]

the rep tank we got went west as OT for tether, so right side tether went off on the party

had to heal lb3

and almost enraged

[jagged aspen]

does the tb actually wipe? never tried not swapping there

[sleek moon]

well, it technically can be mitigated

if you know its coming

cursekeeper is like allagan shield, recording the damage taken and then amplifies it into a raidwide aoe

[visual geyser]

What’s the Dawntrail of ff11

[sleek moon]

i dont play ff11 but i think the one that raised the level cap above 75 is considered the beginning of the exodus

[tall field]

how to escape feeling bad 101 - tank

Unreal tb u don't need to swap if pld/gnb as the pair but I've still swapped even then too. Most of my co Tanks were warriors so yeah.

[sleek moon]

id honestly prefer if they swap to avoid miscommunications

i had a run last week that almost ended bad because one tank asked the mt to invuln right as the buster was starting, and the mt read it very late

also the buster does zero dmg anyways

[trim frost]

reminds me of one time when a whm got mad at me for not using LD on wave 2 adds and then when i used it it didn't even come close to proccing because abyssal drain

[sleek moon]

i honestly dont remember seeing the tank take any more dmg than the rest of the party there, any invuln would feel misplaced during adds

plus that add phase wasn't made for this many healing tools available

back then it required gcd heals, now it doesnt

[ripe bough]

aLlOw Me tO sHoW yOu a TrIck I LeARned

[shy obsidian]

this is literally me during prog

[tall field]

It will mostly kill almost any non tank if u don't swap/invuln with warrior/dark knight.

[sinful brook]

tb kills non tank

[daring pine]

water is wet

[raw sand]

Is water wet

[robust shoal]

is lava wet

[rain geode]

Just did alexendria and Im wondering where those professional level mechanics people in that thread were talking about

[alpine plover]

no

[slender lichen]

no

[craggy marsh]

You mean you didn't wipe to the Elden Ring level boss design that the first boss has

[rain geode]

I mean I did wipe like 4-5 times but I was doing blind in duty support lol

well to the first boss specifcally once

[craggy marsh]

I cant wait for 8.0 bc we'll have more posts about dungeons being too hard and how the final msq dungeon is ultimate level

[rain geode]

regardless finally time to finish but not really dawntrail then Im actually "in end game"

oof 20 minute estimated queue guess it is like 2 am

[kind elm]

id argue lava is the least wet

[rapid whale]

yo this xin is smurfing @clear plume

[clear plume]

i missed draft and have zero clue how hle got azir yunara on redside tbqh

[rapid whale]

same

[clear plume]

like ori is the first pick bc normally

azir is banned

shes not better than azir

[rapid whale]

idk much abt yunara r they that problematic

[clear plume]

she is really good on a good adc

[rapid whale]

the dmg output under ult seems vayne lvl

[clear plume]

you can give like massu and hans yunara but not guma or viper level

[rapid whale]

oic

[clear plume]

a lot like how you imagine peak zeri

[rapid whale]

i thought t1 had the best players of all time in every role tho /s

ah ok that makes sense

is zeri still a teamfight goblin

[clear plume]

yeah, but the most recent nerf that was to her r cd and starting movement speed kind of murdered her for pro

[rapid whale]

makes sense

[clear plume]

you can like, force a fight onto her, and then force another fight in the next 2m and oops zeri doesnt exist

she has a trinity hexplate build tthats decent, but just not what you want in pro

[rapid whale]

so peak strength still high but tempo slow enough to punish

[clear plume]

her movement speed on r being reduced also means shes easier to force onto in a teamfight

you cant instantly kite out a xin for examply

hle is def 2-0ing though

[alpine plover]

guys

did g2 play

or is playing

[rapid whale]

i think they r next match

[alpine plover]

nyooo

i'll be in a meeting

[rain geode]

Alright with that Im basically entirely free to do as I please

[rapid whale]

get into the mines

[torn mesa]

bapple

did you watch doggo's POV of the top fight where viper died

[rapid whale]

no was it insane

[rain geode]

Not far off there are patch quests to do I guess the first thing I should do is figure out how gearing actually works in this game since ive been leaning on job armor and poetics gear for the entire game basically

[versed kayak]

Do you intend to actually do savage raiding or no?

Because if not gearing can be very easy

[rain geode]

not sure if this tier but eventually yeah

[rapid whale]

to start savage, get a set of crafted gear and build up

the 740 set is technically enough to clear the tier you just gotta work extra hard

eg the people who clear day 1 are usually iin full 740 except for the melee

idk if you were able to get mathematics before you finished msq but if so you should have some to spend on 750 gear

so you can skip those pieces

[amber fable]

Cap your weekly tomes and buy gear from there

[rapid whale]

uhhhh i think the new alliance raid also? gives 750

[amber fable]

Ally raids and normal raid is there as well

[rapid whale]

and gives you a token to upgrade the tome 750 gear into 760 gear

[amber fable]

Allyraid is weekly one gear

[rapid whale]

yea

so you dont gotta get a full full set of 740 crafted if money is tight, its just the fastest way into savage

[amber fable]

Also you can augment crafted for quick 750

[rapid whale]

o right i forgot abt that

[jagged aspen]

why does tank purge hit the whole raid 😡

[rain geode]

the math ones or the helio ones

[amber fable]

Helio

It says 450 next to it

Thats the weekly capped

Or was it maths...dont remember but its 450

[alpine plover]

Tbh wait for next tier in 1 month

Or well 2

Christmas savage

[amber fable]

Christmas

[alpine plover]

[amber fable]

Thats 2 months still

[rain geode]

where do I spend them?

[rapid whale]

s9

[amber fable]

Go to sol9

[rapid whale]

in terms of what pieces to buy, the balance channel for your job usually has a rec order

[amber fable]

Just see if its crit with det/dh

Thats your bis piece

[rapid whale]

i think the only exceptions are blm and monk

maybe sam?

[amber fable]

Still overall same thing

[rapid whale]

yea

blm sps maxes and monk has specific pieces for sks

it basically just boils down to what your goals are

[jagged aspen]

aug crafted is perfectly fine to get into savage

[rapid whale]

yea

even normal crafted tbf

[amber fable]

Its more of not worth gil

At this point

[rapid whale]

fair

2 months to do the entire tier

kinda ruff

[jagged aspen]

it takes under an hour to craft a full set

[amber fable]

Assuming you have doh geared up

[jagged aspen]

think you can buy everything for around a mil too

[rain geode]

Yeah I dont think I plan on doing a whole tier especially considering I still want to run some extremes to even figure out what Job I want to play

[amber fable]

Get nraid gear

No cap on token atleast

[jagged aspen]

thats like 730 isnt it

[amber fable]

740

Enough to clear any ex

[rain geode]

so spend Helio to get the ilevel to be able to run normal raid, run normal raid for 740 then go from there sounds like a plan

[amber fable]

You have multiple way to gear

You can even do oc

For 745 gear

[jagged aspen]

hmm but it would take longer to make a full set spamming normals than to get enough gil for crafted tbh

[rapid whale]

yea msq dungeon + raid gear should b enough

with whtever you got from mathematics

im under the assumption you gain mathematics at 100 and have been stock piling

[rain geode]

Hmm the more I think about it the more Im probably gonna just wait til next tier Ill see where the wind takes me since theres still some other random stuff I want to finish up (like the EW raids) but this information has been most helpful

actually Working on MSQ is probably my actually best next option still to get access to the level 100 roulettes

[rapid whale]

iirc dungeons give 735? left side and nothing right side

which should be enough to do normal raids

[jagged aspen]

both sides

[amber fable]

It gives both

[rapid whale]

ooo

[rain geode]

welp it appears my MSQ finishing celebration was premature back to it

Maybe I should do something crazy and make a list

How many Dungeons do I need to unlock level cap dungeon its appearing on my duty finder but its not letting me queue so I assume I dont have enough at literally 1 lol

[clear plume]

Lmao that herald @rapid whale

[rapid whale]

surely this game is over

[clear plume]

Probably yeah, longer range team has a massive lead

[clear plume]

This viper guy might be decent at the game

[trim frost]

dungeons have 735 right side too

okay

[daring pine]

valcors

come do level rolo brah

i dont wanna wait 18 minutes

[trim frost]

me and what leveling

[rain geode]

Lmao

[daring pine]

i've lost the plot

mt gulg yay

[rapid whale]

i went to smoke thinking the game was ove wtf hapened

[clear plume]

viper got a quadra

and game ended from there

[rapid whale]

gg

[clear plume]

(it was technically a triple but)

yeah a fight tthey didnt get on top of him and he just

bit their face off into a free baron

[dapper zealot]

I read that as get maid gear

[rapid whale]

both work tbf

[clear plume]

Now time for

Na eu

[robust shoal]

CFO confirmed dirty Sion merchants

[clear plume]

Idk both the games vs HLE were in their favour so like

Losing to hle and al in late game but beating t1 in late game is just a lot of how the year goes

T1 hasn’t been as clean macro wise

I think it’s probably just

They’re better than fnc every time

But a step below top kr and lpl teams

And capable of winning some games, but not because of sion specifically

[rapid whale]

t1 worlds buff when

[robust shoal]

I'm memeing but also CFO is 3-0 with Sion and 0-4 without Sion lmao

[clear plume]

As soon as Doran becomes Zeus

[rapid whale]

cats looks at sion players like drug dealers

[clear plume]

On Friday we have to see t1 be eliminated by 100t

[clear plume]

I don’t actually love fly draft so far, taliyah into maokai bard is risky

Yeah I like g2 draft better

[rapid whale]

does taliyah get auto stunned if they get hit by bard q while ulting

wau they live

[clear plume]

Yes but that’s not the easiest bard q to land so

[rapid whale]

channel inner doggo

[clear plume]

Massu flashing for an auto on a 400 hp reksai was painful

[alpine plover]

midlaners griefing smh

[rapid whale]

why g2 so scared

o thats why

they r bullying olde man

[wicked delta]

You’re being bullied?

:(

[daring pine]

tobii

almost

i just need to unlock the loporrits on my main

[zealous meteor]

yeah go unlock the bunnies

[clear plume]

They’re treating fly like they’re mkoi or fnc and just throw for free and it never came

[daring pine]

no crafters at 80 yet

but soonge i think

[alpine plover]

bro caps

griefed hardcore

[daring pine]

time to get em up

[rapid whale]

cosmic very fast

[robust shoal]

Labruh hit literally 2 bindings in 38 minutes

[rapid whale]

0 useful ults too right

[clear plume]

He had one good one early on

[robust shoal]

He had one good ult

[clear plume]

At the dragon they got

After a fight there

[daring pine]

yurp

[clear plume]

But yeah, taliyah should have had to be scared and she wasn’t

[robust shoal]

One in midlane for a pick on Quad which Quad should have just flashed

[clear plume]

Press ult on her face

[versed kayak]

ugh I really need to continue with those, need the lop hop

[clear plume]

But also like g2 just didn’t cover their flanks at all

[daring pine]

is the lop hop from the omni quest?

[wicked delta]

Well that wasn’t the sticker I intended on

[clear plume]

Like g2 draft was good but they played like 2018 TSM

[wicked delta]

But it suffices as an answer

[daring pine]

what to do, what to do..

uuh

i forgot which roles use this

zzz

[versed kayak]

think so yeah

or at least it requires all 3 EW societies maxed

[tired egret]

Lemme check stats on earrings real quick

Fending & Casting seem nice due to Crit

[daring pine]

im already using casting

[tired egret]

Ah ok

[daring pine]

my rdm bis is like

this close to being done

[dapper zealot]

so onto unga bunga it goes

[daring pine]

screams

[tired egret]

Also ngl, the other earrings are just eh

But ey, they might be better than the Tomestone Earring?

[amber fable]

If it has crit det/dh then its bis

[tired egret]

Ok the Tomestone earrings have Crit

[rapid whale]

double supp ban by g2 damn

soraka??

[clear plume]

Really good into no damage comps honestly

It kind of cooks

[rapid whale]

valid

[clear plume]

I also like soraka into xayah specifically

[rapid whale]

to stop ult/recalls?

w/e the bring back feathers is

[clear plume]

Yeah, her safety just doesn’t exist

She can also cancel galio taunt

So like multiple layers of utility there

I think it’s pretty giga but

I’m worried about Lucian range into galio always

[rapid whale]

i didnt quite get the lucian pick ig its to kill someone w/ annie stun + rumble ult + lucian ult?

[clear plume]

It’s a trundle pillar thing

Corki down so you need Lucian ezreal type

But Ezreal is bad at killing trundle

Sadly it’s impossible to play into trundle w

The movement speed and run at you tech is unforeseen

[rapid whale]

lmao

ic what you mean about raka vs zdps comp

[clear plume]

Black cleaver Lucian here will be good too

But

This frontline is so strong for g2

Yeah the pick Lucian Annie xin to not fight combo is really smart

[rapid whale]

holy annie popped

[alpine plover]

now bwippo griefing

5.7k lead now

[rapid whale]

lucian?

dashed towards 5?

[clear plume]

Flyquest not sidelaning and not fighting

[alpine plover]

[clear plume]

Group as 5 mid to watch g2 take the objective

That’s a game plan of all time

Somebody mail flyquest hq some celery if they’re gonna be this publicly vegan

[alpine plover]

well

galio and trundle into this comp was quite genius

soraka was not the problem

this time

[clear plume]

Nah galio and trundle should be awful into that comp but if you’re not going to use your electrocute Annie burst to blow the trundle up before he has 3 items then it’s giga op yes

But trundle should be stunned and eat a culling and just die but the electrocute Annie was busy doing nothing

[alpine plover]

well galio is good vs AP users which rumble and annie are and you could see he was rarely close to dying and getting the picks

kinda like how xin barely took damage from g2's comp

idk how annie felt the least impactful somehow. he won lane by like 30 cs but end of the game he was 0-3 vs caps 6-0

[rain geode]

oof Im used to trials taking a while to pop but not dungeons

[rapid whale]

its 5am

give us kog lulu fly

[rain geode]

its 7am that about the time people start waking up
