Doth on the outside is just two positions

jolly flume
#

norm is giving whoever has the least clears the outer slot xdd

fierce matrix
#

Doth second to the outside is 4 positions

fierce matrix
#

Honestly its really not too hard

#

The dooms make a lil n and the non-dooms make a lil smiley face mouth

#

And then you start left to right where they go to make it

random needle
#

It seems doable enough, I just need to actually study and sim it a lil

#

We keep progging just a little past where I had studied up to

fierce matrix
#

DotH is really simple if you just break it down into the two shapes

rapid whale
fierce matrix
#

Doom make n and non doom make smile, start left to right and fill in where need be. I dont think I really ever got confused on where I needed to go and never really simmed it

the hard part of doth is just remembering to look away from the gazes while it's happening

Session 1: we see p3, I haven't studied Wyrmhole and I'm very confused
Session 2: we see p4, I've studied a little but we explode
Session 3: I HATE DDOS! I HATE DDOS! I HATE DDOS!
Session 4: we see p5, my corpse is dragged to DotH, I haven't studied

At this rate, maybe I should sim p6 tonight /s

Youll get to P6 and spend another week dying to P5 permutations you havent gotten

random needle
#

Yeahhhhhhhh that's the thing I keep telling myself

#

We're definitely getting to the point where we're not gonna blaze through phases as quickly anymore because we have to get the earlier ones as consistent as possible

fierce matrix
#

Thankfully P6 is really not that hard. Its just keep the health even

#

If you have a PCT

Glhf its annoying

I still mess up Sanctity sometimes, usually when I have to swap with another DPS

Idk

Hes gotta move to JP for that

#

Plug it into yoshi ps server

The private server

valid solar
#

playing on jp at 120 ping is a whole different experience than the 260 - 300 im used to

#

its so nice

#

the game is so smooth when you have low ish ping kek

fierce matrix
#

120

wicked delta
#

Getting like 200 ms on NA but 12 ms on EU

fierce matrix
#

Lowish

wicked delta
#

EU is freedom

fierce matrix
#

I run 45ms on NA but with Mr funny lower ping its super smooth

#

And I have a VPN so if I get packet loss on my node I just swap

valid solar
#

oh yeah I have to turn on a vpn every now and then as well, usually I use a korea server because that doesnt affect the ping much but avoids the bad node

fierce matrix
#

God does this game love having bad nodes

"thankfully p6 is not that hard. it's just <terminal cancer>"

LOL

#

Just wait till double downtime so you are just fucked

to be fair it isn't that bad once everyone grows a pair of eyes and looks at the hp BEFORE akh afah starts casting

but it takes a while

# zealous meteor you're bisexual??

chiyo isnt but we were discussing earlier about how he says extremely gay things regardless, we should find a psychology student focusing on gender studies and have them make a case study on him

wicked delta

Thats funny as fuck

Immediately

jolly flume

that's normal straight man activities

I’ll need someone to make a survey for that

  1. Are you straight
  2. Have you ever said anything sounding gay
  3. Are you sure you don’t think about kissing men on occasion

Do you guys bother doing pt every week for the challenge log?

visual geyser
#

I didn’t when I was doing it

brisk scarab
#

elisThink Maybe I should look for other ult parties besides fru to do my firdt ever ult it

#

Seems FRU is dead, so maybe widening my scope to any Ult I have unlocked would be easier to get a party for

rapid whale
#

fru is the most popular one tho

#

idk if the reality matches what you are expecting to happen

loud nymph
#

waiting in PF for hours on end is the way PFing an ultimate always goes

rapid whale
#

i have unironically spent 4 hours and not gotten a single party before

#

yea

#

and that was with 2 healers lmfao

brisk scarab
#

Well no, I understand a blm and first time ult person its gonna be hard to find a recruiting party

rapid whale
#

no im saying the other ultimates are more dead than fru

loud nymph
#

just to be realistic this is a bad time to be looking for ultimates in general

rapid whale
#

7.55 will prob be peak ultimate season but thats like a year away

brisk scarab
#

Whens the next Ult?

loud nymph
#

7.5

rapid whale
#

7.5x

brisk scarab
loud nymph
#

or I guess most likely 7.51

brisk scarab
#

Ill keep trying for other ults until then, hopefully Ill be accepted into one

loud nymph
#

so like April-May 2026

brisk scarab
#

Just getting experience is good enough for me

rapid whale
#

wdym b y accepted

#

you just join a pf

#

at your prog point

brisk scarab
#

Im talkinh about the recruitment servers

loud nymph
#

if you're not doing ultimate with a static you're gonna be waiting in a lot of PFs

brisk scarab
loud nymph
#

that's just how it goes

rapid whale
#

yea

loud nymph
#

and with how close the next Savage tier is

rapid whale
#

like 3 hour wait for 3 pulls type shit

brisk scarab
#

I was talking about statics

loud nymph
#

there's not gonna be a lot of ultimate statics forming

rapid whale
#

yeah

#

highly unlikely anything forms

#

the ones that do are prob friends alt jobbing or w/e

loud nymph
rapid whale
#

yea when you said fru is dead statics were so far out of my scope of possibility i didnt even consider thats what you meant lol

brisk scarab
#

I dont see how looking for any static conducting a certain Ultimate is a bad thing, and I wouldnt word it like that mewpaissa

rapid whale
#

atp pf is your only hope and fresh tends to fill okay

brisk scarab
#

All Im.saying is that I wanna do any ult, preferably FRU to start, but Ill learn any for the sake of doing it

rapid whale
#

all im saying is pf is there

#

just be prepared for a lot of Patience ™

#

just to be sure, do you have fru unlocked? and did you keep your old 730 set

#

iirc a lot of jobs use dungeon gear now tho

brisk scarab
#

I do have FRU unlocked although I probably have some 730 missing, which wont be hard to get again

rapid whale
#

i'd start there

#

were you planning to make the static farm that for you 😵‍💫

loud nymph
brisk scarab
#

Why are we putting words in my moutj

rapid whale
#

we are not

#

im saying if you were srs about doing fru you'd start by looking up the raid plans + gear

#

if you havent done the gear yet why are you applying/looking for statics

brisk scarab
#

Because its like, one accessory

#

But hey, Im the jackass here I guess for speksing my thoughts

rapid whale
#

?

rapid whale
#

wat

pine holly
#

Its gonna be tough to find a static wanting to fresh prog fru right before a new Savage drop

loud nymph
#

and "I'll just look for whatever" isn't really gonna help you have more luck

#

because a month before a new patch with a new savage tier is a bad time to look for an ultimate static

pine holly
#

We didn't have much difficulty filling two spots for dsr but we did this right before 7.3 dropped, where people would be bored.

brisk scarab
#

I understand why Im not having much long, all I did was say my thoughts was looking for statics outside of just a fresh FRU

#

I understand learning raid plans, preparation, dcheduling and issues with upcoming in game updated of new content

rapid whale
#

okay so you wanted to vent about frustration? im confused atp

brisk scarab
#

And I wouldnt say out loud Ill take any, I was just voicing Id like to do anh I can do

pine holly
#

Like what the statics expect from you? Idk depends on the static

brisk scarab
#

I wasnt frustrated when I posted, I was just voicing what I was doing elisWaiting

loud nymph
#

all I'm saying is if you think fru statics are dead just wait till you look for something else

pine holly
#

Ours is only what, 7 hours a week? We mostly checked for vibes and whether someone was competent during prog.

brisk scarab
#

Yeah, I had one for Savage but had to drop out due to my new job hours, which sucked

#

But luckily my hours are better for typical run times in other parties, like weekends, nights/evenings etc

brisk scarab
#

Might as well do any opportunity presented rather then aimlessly search

pine holly
#

Pfing while looking for statics I feel like would only help anyway, do what feels right

brisk scarab
#

How varied are Ult raidplans? Is it like the 2-3 used in ex/savage pfs, or are there multiple used by different parties

rapid whale
#

for NA the generally accepted raid plans are from NAUR

brisk scarab
loud nymph
#

ye just use whatever naur has

#

that's gonna be what pf will pull from

#

unless you get some stupid cursed pf that wants to do fuss free fall of faith or some other stupid shit

#

in which case just avoid that pf

brisk scarab
#

Ahhh I see

remote gate
#

when doing ultimates you'll also see repeat names a lot. sometimes there are goated pf players and then there are pf terrorists which just fuck everything up

#

last night I saw a fake ranged dragoon in uwu and it was like

#

why??

random needle
remote gate
#

apparently this guy is a known person in na uwu pfs too

random needle
#

Fake ranged... As Dragoon... the job that has at least one gapcloser in all its bursts... ahuh

#

I guess technically at 70 it's "just" dragonfire dive, but I'm still throwing them into the sea for that

loud nymph
#

fake.... ranged?!?

#

wtf?

#

why wouldn't you just play a ranged job

random needle
#

Fake ranged is already a concept worthy of being mocked into oblivion

pine holly
#

I still remember me alt tabling out of my fru opener, three times in a row, and just dipping because I was that embarrassed

#

Never did that before or since. No idea how I did that three times in a row

random needle
#

Does a single bad instance make you a known PF terrorist? I got the impression that was more if you had a consistent pattern of playing like dogwater

#

Like Big or Watashia

pine holly
#

That's the 2nd part, "well I looked like an idiot last party just don't do that again"

brisk scarab
#

Whats the least used class in Ultimates typically?

#

Is there like, one that is genuinely ignored

pine holly
#

Had a few instances in Savage where I would do awesome, finally get a party that's good and clear ready and play like ass

brisk scarab
#

I know any class can be viable in the right jands, but I was wondering if theres one thats always avoided in ult parties

pine holly
boreal pumice
#

id say vpr outside fru since its earlier lvls its just so fyucking shit

But generally everyone is viable

#

did your water break

brisk scarab
#

Astro is fun so far, although using the cards on party is still difficult to know when to time them for me

random needle
#

SMN at least gives you the dopamine of sending Bahamut as often as possible (and thus being top DPS in UCoB and UWU)

VPR is just nothing but filler

#

I've personally made significant prog as RDM and BLM in two ults, and they're both fun and nice, but again, it's just your preference dawg

boreal pumice
#

smn also "fun" in eureka/bozja big numbers its always big dopamine

jolly flume
#

nothing like a perfectly timed star pop

random needle
#

I've technically also done SMN in UWU up to Titan and BRD in TEA up to LC, but that's not deep into either fight to feel significant to me

jolly flume
#

shit is peam when you manually detonate it before the castbar for the damage even ends and then the propagation time lets it top everyone anyway

If only Ultimecia didn't have that dumb mechanic where she destroys your magic and can randomly brick a characters stats. Literal rng where it does nothing or makes an attempt actually hard

That last phase where Extreme actually plays is very fun though. I like trying to kill her before Apokalypse activates.

honestly play either 6 or 9

both are peak

Its so cool bro

true beacon
#

I mean Ukanovasara is also a relic

#

which I realize I can't check because I haven't done the HW warrior one yet

dreamy whale
#

Im talking about the effects tho

worn bluff
#

i like all the TEA weapons

mortal flower
#

Tbh the effects of most of the relics are ugly

whole estuary
#

true

dreamy whale
#

Minos lux effects are kino

mortal flower
#

Too flashy, too much use of glow, feels like I'm getting fucking radiation poisoning

true beacon
#

got all these

mortal flower
#

Counterpoint: TOP VFX is kinda nice

whole estuary
#

the glow makes them impossible to match with glams

mortal flower
#

Counter-counterpoint: I like the [Alolo glows]

#

The tome glows were fucking perfect

worn bluff
#

i like TOP glow. the color change stands out a lot

whole estuary
#

the composition becomes lopsidedly focused on the weapon

mortal flower
#

Only if I had the patience to learn the content

mortal flower
#

Like the tome glows to me struck a perfect balance

worn bluff
#

EW relics look cool except i feel like they should have been some other reward so they wouldn't be the most common thing you saw for a while

mortal flower
#

It just augmented the weapon

#

It wasn't the whole thing

#

And it wasn't uniform across all of them

#

cough cough ultimates and [certain] relics

#

Like War got the chainsaw turned on

#

PLD got a sea of stars

#

Etc

worn bluff
#

remember when the augmented MCH tome had no lunchbox for a bit

true beacon
#

no

worn bluff
#

and then they were like OH my bad we didn't mean to do that

#

it was like for one patch it was a bug

bro

#

mfw raphael macro breaks because of a poorly timed primed on waste not

#

shits so annoying

boreal pumice
#

welcome to macro on expert

trim frost
#

i think that deadass might be the only case where it fails for this particular mission

#

its not even an ex+

#

just ex

#

like no other case would negatively impact from a longer buff except for getting locked out of prudent

#

slash whatever the progress one is

#

although

boreal pumice
#

yh i have over shot progress a few times because of that

trim frost
#

i guess maybe an early malleable might fuck stuff up too

#

literally just wanted to get this out of the way that took too many attempts playdead

Is it ok to shake akh morns

dapper zealot
#

why would you not?

dreamy whale
#

Dunno just felt right to do so wanted to make sure i wasnt trolling

#

I saw a stack marker with multiple layers so I was like

#

“Oh I should shake this for the party”

boreal pumice
#

why would it be trolling?

dreamy whale
#

Using my cooldowns when im not supposed to or something

versed kayak
#

what fight is this for

boreal pumice
#

people really dont care , unless its higher content , its helpful sure but not 100% needed , i sometimes use shake for personal use

random needle
#

Zodiark Normal

dreamy whale
#

Yea

random needle
#

But yeah no, stack markers are like

#

The thing you'd use Shake for

#

And raidwides (but stacks are basically raidwides if you think about it)

dreamy whale
#

Okok

#

So shake is for stuff that affects the whole raid and nascent flash is for stuff that affects both tanks

dapper zealot
boreal pumice
#

ideally but dont be afraid to use it for your own use

true beacon
#

that fight is also like...

#

kind of a joke?

boreal pumice
#

ppl still fail on the turns

versed kayak
#

I dont even remember it havin akh mhorn

boreal pumice
#

then your damn numbers and then the stack hurts and ppl fail

true beacon
#

styx

versed kayak
#

why does it even have that, its not a dragon huh

dreamy whale
#

I didnt know what to call it

#

It was a stack that hit a bunch of times

boreal pumice
#

because thats the first multi stack you think of

versed kayak
#

ah, fair enough them, reasonable name

boreal pumice
#

its like protean

#

even ppl who didnt alexander at the time call it that

random needle
#

Akh Morn is weird because it can be different things in different fights, but I usually see it known as a multi hit stack marker

versed kayak
#

was great doing A12S with some people and someone actually saying "It's a defamation and the debuff is even called that!"

They're out/in

did not like ruby weapon reusing those names

It's

Of course it'd reuse them

boreal pumice
versed kayak
#

I knowww

#

doesnt mean I like it lmao

dreamy whale
#

I dont know what a lot of these mechanics do so i follow the rest of the party

boreal pumice
#

bait makes sense

dreamy whale
#

I’m supposed to be john tank

#

Meanwhile im standing in the wrong section of the arena because I didn’t know what color hits where

boreal pumice
#

its just looking at the shapes

#

triangle and square

dreamy whale
#

Oh was there shapes

#

I saw big explodey thing and followed the party

random needle
#

Plus it's a wall boss, as long as you have aggro it's pretty chill

dreamy whale
#

I messed up final boss in babil

#

“Im drowning what”

boreal pumice
#

see this is a square so itl be half the room

dreamy whale
#

“How do i not get hit by the saws”

#

Oh ok

#

Makes sense

#

Ig im not attentive enough

worn bluff
dreamy whale
#

Something i have to work on if I wanna raid seriously

whole estuary
#

Stormblood onwards they get good with making tells

#

I like DT fights a lot

dapper zealot
#

I find it hilarious I successfully fumbled through the stars mech every time. Then when I realised how it actually worked, I started fucking it up

dreamy whale
#

Ik it’s barely punishing since its normal difficulty but

#

I still wanna get it right

true beacon
#

its a panini press

boreal pumice
#

some tells love to trick you but once you seen it the first time its ok its this

dreamy whale
#

Grand Cosmos mortal flame probably the worst mechanic Ive ever had to deal with blind

#

Are we getting ddosed or is my internet fucking up

boreal pumice
#

i understood it quite easily mousing over it and theirs like a warning , the furniture having name plates

dapper zealot
#

That's a punishing mech tbh, even if you do it correctly, someone else can fuck you over

dreamy whale
#

I’m on PS5 i have to fumble with the touchpad if I want to use a cursor

whole estuary
#

I watched what other people were doing but otherwise it's not immediately obvious compared to other body tells yeah

true beacon
whole estuary
#

oh that's what you meant

boreal pumice
#

i tend to tell ppl the mech if i see a newbie otherwise they are just ded on the floor , then again we have phionex down working in dungeons

whole estuary

so that's what a panini is

What is the purpose of this chat room?

I've done the fight a bunch of times and never bothered to look up until recently

Yapping about spoilers and raids

dapper zealot

There's one corner I naturally drifted towards and that's usually safe

visual geyser
jagged aspen
verbal frost
#

Is talking about 7.4 content okay?

visual geyser
#

they should reuse it

#

ye

boreal pumice
#

i just understood the mech quite easily since i coulnt target him might as well look at the enviroment

jagged aspen
#

usually no spoilers right after patch, otherwise sure

verbal frost
dapper zealot

I loved it when we killed that guy in 7.4

verbal frost
#

Nah I'm meaning like can we talk about upcoming content?

rapid whale

spoiler the warrior of light dies in 7.4

jagged aspen

sure, why not lol

#

ppl talk about lol tournaments here, ur fine

verbal frost
#

I see. I just don't want to get banned again. I got unbanned today after 3 years.

#

I know they are very strict here.

whole estuary
#

I feel like we should start making a habit of cremating our enemies so that the writing team stops bringint them back

Omg guys this is just like Destiny 2

In my vault

8.0 should be our Star Wars collab expansion

#

That will revive this game

dreamy whale
#

No we’ll get star trek and cn will get star wars

whole estuary
#

That would be a Disney collab

#

which... I wonder why they wouldn't do KH first then

dreamy whale
#

Yeah i was gonna say if we ever get a disney collab i want kh

#

Imagine viper gets oathkeeper and oblivion

boreal pumice
#

im assuming its because of licencing

random needle
#

Every other FF game is already a thinly veiled Star Wars reference

boreal pumice
#

ff12

true beacon
#

literally FF2

verbal frost
#

I think the only way Zenos is coming back is in an ultimate.

#

But do I think Zenos is still alive? yeah maybe.

true beacon
#

I mean if you wanna talk lore

verbal frost
#

I just don't think they are going to reuse him.

true beacon
verbal frost
#

But do I think Zenos will be the main villain of an ultimate

#

ye 100%

#

that's why they skpped stormblood.

true beacon
whole estuary
#

Star Wars invented Gustav Holst

verbal frost
#

because he has two major arcs in stormblood and endwalker.

boreal pumice
#

but minor fun fact there is 2 kh references 1 being a weapon called heartless that has the kh symbol for whm and the new hair cut simple an clean (could not be a reference but im going with it)

Yoshida has said before that Disney is the major point of friction

Wdym?

whole estuary
#

they must be cutthroat with their terms

anything not FF Disney owns

They could always do legally distinct kh

boreal pumice

but who holds the right to sora /riku SE/disney or joint

dreamy whale
#

Twewy collab lol

true beacon
#

Disney

verbal frost
#

I don't really want collabs right now.

#

If it makes the content cycle even worse.

whole estuary
#

what

visual geyser
#

Arkvield was coo

verbal frost
#

There's always a tradeoff with CBU3.

whole estuary
#

we still need the Doritos collab

verbal frost
#

ha

whole estuary
#

to match the Mtn Dew one

verbal frost
#

the mountain zu?

proper cave
#

MH collabs were both extras that didn’t interfere

verbal frost
#

Yeah

#

I agree with that

ember quartz
verbal frost
#

I think 7.3 was the best patch of the expansion so far.

whole estuary
#

I need this as an emote

boreal pumice
#

and that jp devs are usually drinking buddies anyway

verbal frost
#

Because we got so much content this patch

verbal frost
#

No, I'm being serious

dull drum
#

of the expansion? i guess

verbal frost
#

I think the one issue you can argue

dull drum
#

but comparatively to the rest of the games history? OMEGADANCEBUTFAST

verbal frost
#

is that the savage bis is useless

#

which yeah it is useless and Chaotic should have been 7.3

rapid whale
#

doritos strike : if you miss a tooth you get a bleed for the rest of the fight

verbal frost
#

People know that by now.

#

But look at the content we actually got this patch

whole estuary
#

I like the new DD a lot

jolly flume
#

this patch was saved by q40 for me

ember quartz
jolly flume
#

otherwise I would've been unsubbed again

dull drum
#

yeah q40 is the main sticking point

jolly flume
#

arkveld was fun but an ex and a dd isn't doing it for me for five months

rapid whale
verbal frost
#
  • New Alliance Raid
  • Piligrim Traverse (deep dungeon)
  • Final Verse (Quantum) high-end 4 man trial.
  • 2 new Extremes (1 mid 1 good)
  • New planet (Phaenna)
#

This is actually a very good patch, imo.

dull drum
#

i havent heard jack shit about the new alliance raid discussion wise

rapid whale
#

the best patch ever was insertfavoritesavagetier

verbal frost
#

There is more sure. This is just what I consider the main content.

dull drum
#

but someone told me it was slop compared to first walk

verbal frost
#

MSQ also ig? but that's a given.

dreamy whale
#

Wish i was playing 1.0 when I was 7

jolly flume
#

idk I liked the first 24 man more

boreal pumice
verbal frost
#

As a player who did Quantum I think it's a flp.

dull drum
jolly flume
#

but I'm not the target audience for this shit anyways

verbal frost
#

But it's nice to have the content.

dreamy whale
#

My character would have a sick ass tattoo

verbal frost
#

Quantum is essentially criteron savage.

#

something that they are... litearlly removing next patch.

jolly flume
#

criterion savage but better

verbal frost
#

well

jolly flume
#

and it was already good

verbal frost
#

It's pretty much just criterion as a whole

dull drum
#

you know what isnt better though

#

q40 rewards

dreamy whale
#

Bring back Syrcus Tower Savage

dull drum
verbal frost
#

Q15 is inaccessible to casuals and even midcore players.

rapid whale
#

ozma is on record for saying if q40 lasted 20 mins like an ultimate, it would be the hardest ultimate in the game

verbal frost
#

The difficulty is already savage level

dreamy whale
jolly flume
#

q15 is

#

not really savage

dull drum
#

hey at least you get a title

verbal frost
#

actually

dreamy whale
#

Isnt it literally just mourner of light

verbal frost
#

maybe

#

Q15 is already savage

#

if u watch a vid of the fight

boreal pumice
#

q40 rewards is basicly do you want more sacks so you can try get mounts to sell to make money

verbal frost
#

it has the same mechanics

#

it's just that stuff doesn't hit hard

#

Q15 is basiaclly Criteron level already while Q40 is Criteron Savage

jolly flume
#

it does not have the same mechanics

#

stuff gets added

#

it's layered

verbal frost
#

it does

rapid whale
#

i tried q40 for funsies without maxed aetherpool and i had to use tank invuln to survive the bleed

verbal frost
#

watch a vid

jolly flume
#

I've done q15 and 40 both dude

verbal frost
#

I promise you it's pretty much the same thing

jolly flume
#

I don't need to watch a video

verbal frost
#

I've done both.

boreal pumice
#

chiyo has done it

dull drum
#

lol

boreal pumice
#

kek

verbal frost
#

I've doe both also.

#

It's pretty much the same thing imo.

versed kayak
#

Q40 adds a bunch of little extra bits to the mechs

verbal frost
#

The only major differnece I see.

#

Is that the major mechanics are "easier"

jolly flume
#

and I don't think 20 minutes of q40 being the hardest fight in the game is an exaggeration

verbal frost
#

but the major mechanics aren't the hard part of the fight

#

IMO.

versed kayak
#

Apparently light/dark timers are also longer in q15

verbal frost
#

the hard part of the fight like mr ozma said

jolly flume
#

they're 3m

verbal frost
#

was the pacing

#

every 5-10s u are doing a new mechanic

jolly flume
#

it's not the pacing either

versed kayak
verbal frost
#

and the repeat mechanics are different everytime and harder.

jolly flume
#

it's the fact that you have to juggle background tasks while doing other mechanics

verbal frost
#

I think the whole chain add phase is probably the easiest part tbh.

dreamy whale
#

Guys help something terrible has happened

jolly flume
#

if you look at just the timeline

verbal frost
#

Even if it is a major mechanic.

rapid whale
jolly flume
#

the mechanics are pretty spaced

dreamy whale
#

They sent me to Mare Lamentorum

#

There’s modbeasts here

jolly flume
#

but you're constantly dealing with mental overhead

#

of debuffs and hp balance

dreamy whale
#

Oh god there’s so many furries

verbal frost
#

Can we agree

#

all 3 of the major mechanics are like extreme level

#

?

jolly flume
#

I don't disagree

verbal frost
#

they are not the hard part of the fight

#

it's like u said

#

it's mechanics stacking

#

and repeating

#

that's why I said it's the pacing

#

like if it was a 20m fight it might be the hardest

versed kayak
rapid whale
#

i mean by that argument nothing in an ultimate is hard either

verbal frost
#

because it's a consistency check teh whole time.

jolly flume
#

I define pacing differently I guess

#

but still

verbal frost
#

it's pretty much like

dreamy whale
rapid whale
#

individually each part of an ultimate is w/e it's the endurance

verbal frost
#

p5 of FRU for 9 minutes.

jolly flume
#

I think it would easily be harder than the ultimates

verbal frost
#

but not as severe.

jolly flume
#

if it was 20 minutes

verbal frost
#

ye

jolly flume
#

no ultimate requires you

verbal frost
#

just because like u can die on any random mech

#

in this fight

jolly flume
#

to actually have your brain on for 18 minutes runtime

verbal frost
#

u aren't dying on certain mechs in ultimate if u do u are just trolling

#

like who is dying to diamond dust in fru

rapid whale
#

yea most ultimates have like full on chill time for downtime trios

verbal frost
#

not to be rude

dreamy whale
rapid whale
verbal frost
#

well if u are progging

#

ye

#

but when u are going for a clear

rapid whale
#

they die to fof memes dude

verbal frost
#

when u are progging

rapid whale
#

nono in clear parties

verbal frost
#

when u are going for a clear

#

the only legitimate mechs are APOC and CT

rapid whale
#

the shit i have seen on ppls c41 streams

verbal frost
#

and all of p5

#

b/c p5 is the hardest phase it's a giant choke check

#

that's how every ulti is

rapid whale
#

counter argument uwu /jk

jolly flume
#

the choke check in question

#

walk into/out of line aoes

verbal frost
#

ppl still die to it all the time

#

I'm not saying it's a hard mechanic

#

but yeah it requires consistency

rapid whale
verbal frost
#

it's like 15 minutes into the fight already

#

and 1 dps dying sometimes just means it's not clearable

jolly flume
#

it requires consistency to prog efficiently I guess

verbal frost
#

like if u are playing samurai and u die

jolly flume
#

but you can always be that guy who's 2600 pulls into fru

verbal frost
#

you probably just ruined it for the whole party

jolly flume
#

and still hasn't cleared

verbal frost
#

or black mage

jolly flume
#

ok if 1 dps death enrages you in p5

#

that's kinda sad

verbal frost
#

well it depends on like

rapid whale
#

i thikn th e worst pull count to prog ratio i saw was 3k and on apoc

verbal frost
#

who is dying right

#

if an astrologian dies who cares

#

they have raidbuffs

jolly flume
#

no literally any death should fly

verbal frost
#

if a viper dies

jolly flume
#

viper before pitted 2s

verbal frost
#

they lose all of their gauge

jolly flume
#

who cares

clear plume
#

Samurai and blm loses way less for dying than a lot of other jobs to begin with

jolly flume
#

noble cleared a sage doing 7k or smth in p5

#

that's 7k less than good

rapid whale
#

lmao

jolly flume
#

surely a vpr does not drop to 23k dps

#

because of one death

#

it's like 26-7

verbal frost
#

depends on the party in pf idk

jolly flume
#

iunno

#

I haven't pfed too much since 7.1

#

but like

#

two totems recently

#

still p free

verbal frost
#

3/7 of the members had 3k pulls and highest was apoc.

clear plume
#

It’s easy to imagine a group bad enough to not clear anything but it doesn’t make it a good argument I’ve seen groups unable to do Titania dps check

rapid whale
#

ouchies

jolly flume
#

I think our worst kill in p5 in 7.1 had mnk pld death

verbal frost
#

& then I got kicked for asking someone to check if they were doing a mechanic right

#

because they were pvping me in UR

#

goat static

rapid whale
#

i've died as the dance partner'd picto in p5 and cleared before

verbal frost
rapid whale
#

i swear if we didnt get ming that clear i was gonna delete my chara @jolly flume

jolly flume
#

we skipped the lb3 at the end still

#

so I think it's still a kill with current pct

#

but idk for sure

dreamy whale
#

My favorite one is when people are dying to adds mid boss because I didn’t pull one of them before they started aggro and they stand still instead of bringing them to me

verbal frost
#

current pct is drastically worse in p5 tbf

jolly flume
#

pct used to be like 31k p5 now it's 27-8?

verbal frost
#

like 4k cdps worse maybe

jolly flume
#

not a big sample size for me to look at

verbal frost
#

somethig like that yeah

jolly flume
#

out of my own logs

verbal frost
#

peak picto was different

rapid whale
dreamy whale
#

No just in general

rapid whale
#

theres no bringing it over atp lol

dreamy whale
#

Not like dying dying but taking damage

#

In dungeons and such

rapid whale
#

provoke exists /s yea thats annoying lol

jolly flume
#

idk you just get used to it

#

first rule of playing support in anything

#

play like ur entire party is brain damaged

#

at all times

dreamy whale
#

If i notice it happening i toggle over and tomahawk it but like

craggy marsh
#

Tfw you're doing uwu but you have a dnc so they keep getting the spiney plume targeted on them bc they dont wanna wait 1 second

dreamy whale
#

Pls just bring it over

verbal frost
#

ye that's very true

dreamy whale
#

I’m already using aoe on the boss and 3 other adds

verbal frost
#

what even was the original convo

dreamy whale
#

Give it to me

verbal frost
#

but yeah back to quantum / criteron as an extension

#

I'm a bit disappointed with the new criterion as a redesign

rapid whale
#

Prayge that they just conveniently didnt mention the savage mode ig

jolly flume
#

I liked the adds

verbal frost
#

I think quantum should have had q15 be easier so midcore ppl can realistically clear it

jolly flume
#

not really interested in another boss rush mode

verbal frost
#

and then if the clear rates were decent

jolly flume
#

tbqh

verbal frost
#

tie a 3rd weapon tier

#

to quantum

#

to make the pilgrim weapons glow or smth

whole estuary
#

glowing stained glass would be too good

rapid whale
#

they could have gone the aloalo savage route and made the weapons lglow yea

#

for a q40 clear

verbal frost
#

like don't get me wrong

jolly flume
#

granted the 4 man bosses they cook are usually top quality

verbal frost
#

I do like how the 2nd weapon tier looks

jolly flume
#

but I'll miss having actually interesting adds

#

for once

verbal frost
#

but if they added a 3rd tier of weapons

#

that glows

#

way more people would have actually tried quantum

whole estuary
#

I like the stained glass on the 1st tier better, more colorful

verbal frost
#

and I think q40 should just be content meant for a one time clear or farming if you are really consistent.

rapid whale
#

are yall ready for the new vnc dungeon glam to be top limsa glam tho

verbal frost
#

I think removing criterion savage was dumb.

#

It clearly didn't take much effort to make criteron savage.

jolly flume
#

honestly more people have done quantum than I expected to

verbal frost
#

I think they need to treat certain content as like

visual geyser
verbal frost
#

1 time clear because it's supposed to be really hard.

#

What is the legitimate reaosn for removing criteron savage though

#

hardcore raiders enjoyed progging it

jolly flume
#

criterion savage takes less effort to make than an unreal and honestly

verbal frost
#

It gave a cool title.

visual geyser
#

no one did it

jolly flume
#

it was fun

verbal frost
#

It's 1 time clearcontent
