[zealous meteor]

this is so sad

[verbal frost]

It’s hard playing a gauge mode job, if it isn’t red mage.

[jolly flume]

every mch player is just another job player in temporary denial

look at stella

mch one trick turned plays literally everything else

[versed kayak]

my statics mch switched to bard for cw

[wicked delta]

My bf switched to dancer for savage

Started crying bc everything went smoother

[jolly flume]

I am also former prange turned plays literally everything else

its inevitable

[random needle]

My heart and soul are conflicted on if I want to do my favorite job (BLM) or a job that'd be more practical (AST) for Heavyweight

[boreal pumice]

he took your job

[tired egret]

imagine being the guy who really loves Machinist because of having a gun

but then learn that being a fucking belly dancer is far more viable than guns

true pain

[random needle]

It won't happen, but could you imagine if they actually just make MCH jacked as hell in 7.4 so it's in line with SAM and BLM as selfish DPS

[jolly flume]

I knew that already

but it didn't make it suck any less

[tired egret]

"PotD was harder before 7.4"

[versed kayak]

8.0 should give us a Phys ranged right

[tired egret]

8.0 should give us another Selfish RDPS

[wicked delta]

He switched back after 1 instance my job is secured ❤️

[random needle]

Assuming current patterns hold, yes

[tired egret]

like how DNC & BRD are the buffers

MCH & new RDPS are the Dealers

[verbal frost]

It just needs to be treated as the samurai of phys ranged. That’s all they have to do.

[verbal frost]

Hell no

we have too many rn

[random needle]

Delete ranged tax, on gods

[verbal frost]

Even viper has ranged tax hahaha

Viper has ranged tax, gauge tax, it’s cooked.

[random needle]

It's also just... nothing to play

[jolly flume]

the concept of ranged tax the way SE executes it is antithetical to the idea itself

the whole point is to balance the theoretical output such that in a real world scenario requiring disconnects the jobs do the same damage

what we have in said real world scenarios is ranged jobs doing less damage for fun

but who's surprised lol

it's se

[random needle]

There needs to be mechanics where melee just straight up cannot greed I guess

Does someone have that gif of the monk greeding in m5s during funky floor

[jagged aspen]

people will find a way

[daring pine]

i saw the ride the waves one but not that

[random needle]

Wait oops

Yeah ride the waves, not funky floor

It's been a while since I was in m5, I forgor the names

[zealous meteor]

how could you

i trusted you

[jolly flume]

it's so much simpler than that

just reduce the arbitrarily large "ranged tax"

[random needle]

Yeah that too

One or the other would fix it, but it'd be easier to just buff the pranged

And in particular juice MCH

[jagged aspen]

mch is already doing better than others tho

[jolly flume]

are we playing the same game

or are you looking at 7.3 stats in which case I

don't really need to say anything

[daring pine]

remove my raise tax SE

[random needle]

Keep it on SMN though, it's funni

[daring pine]

yeah keep it on smn

dirty lego eaters

[sinful brook]

Lmao

7.3 stats

Omegalul even

[random needle]

My digs at summoner are out of affection

My digs at Viper are out of purest spite

[daring pine]

my digs at summoner are out of spite

[jagged aspen]

what patch would i be looking at when mch got buffs in 7.3

7.2 had the same though iirc

[daring pine]

8.0 smn is the new prange

[jolly flume]

the buffs were 20 potency to tools

meanwhile the entire playerbase that is representative of "how the job is played correctly" hasn't logged savage since 7.2

if you want clear evidence of this compare the healer stats in 7.3 vs 7.2

unless you're telling me astro got nerfed by 1.5k dps this patch

(HINT: IT DIDN'T)

[jagged aspen]

how do you even check anything over 2 weeks ago

[thin tartan]

Oh wait

Look at wings 1

[zealous meteor]

is this another "aoes markers that aren't supposed to be there" moment or do they just suck for other reasons

[jolly flume]

[thin tartan]

no

the mits

[jolly flume]

that's a "the main tank was like 50/50ing wiping the entire party"

bros on the wrong side of the boss

[zealous meteor]

ah cool

[thin tartan]

idk why kr wants to double mit wings 1 and have mt bait apoc idk

Fun stuff

[jolly flume]

oh they double mitted

yeah I just saw

tbf if that happens by accident it's nbd but like

why would you plan for that

[thin tartan]

its planned for that

[jolly flume]

yeah that's an erm

I guess they invuln darkest and somber both then?

[random needle]

I can't wait for this to happen the first time I get to p7
https://youtu.be/Ak59ykVqvjU?si=RfE2tib0LJQeLDa1

[thin tartan]

mt inv dd ot inv somber

[jolly flume]

that's kinda goofy

double sink with war on wings is pretty sus too if they don't get a fair bit of help

[visual geyser]

[sly basin]

i also love anamnesis

[jagged aspen]

anamnesis in 2026

[visual geyser]

listen bro

it gets the job done

[sly basin]

i prefer anamnesis over glamourer

[visual geyser]

idk wtf is popping with the freaks

[sly basin]

it feels easier to use

[visual geyser]

does glamourer have the small images for items

[zealous meteor]

anamnesis is the one with a big "WINDOWS ONLY, FUCK OFF" warning right

[visual geyser]

idk

looks nicer to me

anyway hrothlady

so many AF pieces held hostage on shitty jobs 😭

[zealous meteor]

Windows 10 or 11 (there are no plans to add support for older versions of Windows that Microsoft or is not in turn supporting, or other operating systems).

darnit

[jagged aspen]

idk, standalone tool feels alot more clunky

[visual geyser]

maybe its because i've started modding with concept matrix

so i always been used to using a third party app

[jagged aspen]

but you have to restart the game every time?

[jolly flume]

one exam down

three to go

[valid solar]

restart for whatr

I cant remember any feature of anamnesis that required a restart

[dapper zealot]

[visual geyser]

i gotta stop playing this hroth lady

[zealous meteor]

just eating more pizza IS eating like a normal human being

[zealous meteor]

[jolly flume]

eating any more pizza is how I end up sick on finals week

[sick dirge]

why do people make two identical pfs that then fill at about the same rate

[worn bluff]

it's painful seeing them both fill to 4/8 with just the right slots to make a full party

and then one goes to 5/8

[wicked delta]

he has explained to me like 5 different times that its a meme tag

but

ragebaiting is funnier

so i will continue pretending he is serious about it

[thin fox]

ok

]Im going to fucking

what are my roulettes

why do I get the worst roulettes

known to man

in the past month

what is going on

what did they do

what did I do

[dull drum]

inx ive been getting cure 1 bots and i actually want to like

[thin fox]

dude

[dull drum]

blow my brains out

[thin fox]

ok

picture htis

tender valley

we querue in

the healer dcs loading in

so it takes forever for it to let us in

and then because its a tank/healer couple

the tank just

dips

and we cant kick the dc'd healer cuz its been <5m

and we're waiting for a tank

[dull drum]

[random needle]

Can you vote abandon or is that also time limited

[thin fox]

we waited cuz we're goats

now we have a tank/healer

[zealous meteor]

i mean you can just leave

no penalty

[loud nymph]

yeah if someone dipped already you can dip with zero penalty

I did it all the time when doing roulettes for aetherwells

"oh fuck crystal tower"

"oh cool someone already bailed guess I'm out too"

[dull drum]

thats fucked up

what about all the CT enjoyers

[loud nymph]

they can fuck off

they aren't people

[sick dirge]

who actually enjoys CT

[jolly flume]

big fan of crystallize time

great mechanic

should really do more damage though

[random needle]

Syrcus Tower is nice when I want to turn my brain off and get half a level of exp for zero effort

LotA and CoD require barely more processing power because they get really annoying if someone messes up sometimes

[undone tide]

crystallize time is probably like a top 5 mechanic

[jolly flume]

is it

im trying to think

my top 3 is probably nidhogg>delta>sigma and outside of that it gets more iffy

DOTH is almost certainly 4th

I could see CT 5th

@torn mesa what was your tier list again

[worn bluff]

what about TEA

BJCC > dolls > rest

[deep gale]

Where does Twintania fall on this chart

Is there a tier under F for it

[random needle]

Once I clear DSR, I'll start putting my list together even though it'll just be cob and dsr

But yeah twin is probably gonna be right down near the bottom

[jolly flume]

yes

Now Playing: Thunderer tier

[deep gale]

fantastic

[timber stratus]

you mean at the top

peak: thunderer

[undone tide]

can you send me this format

[torn mesa]

search FFXIV ultimate phases tiermaker

I don't remember exactly where it's from

incredible that uwu is not on this list

[loud nymph]

uwu is in its own tier

[round burrow]

Holy shit chat

fourchenault is in my fridge

(The joke is, some people struggle to pronounce his name despite it being said multiple times in game and they call him four cheese.)

[remote gate]

but why isn't tea on the list

has tea depreciated? 😔

[round burrow]

yes

[remote gate]

https://tenor.com/view/ahoklollmao-noooo-nooo-noo-no-gif-17139315586294057944

Tea is an extreme

[torn mesa]

only did it for the ultimates I finished

[rapid whale]

i thought you were gonna end it at ultimates and have it be a spicy take

[jolly flume]

not even that spicy ngl

[undone tide]

dynamis omega in D doesn’t make sense to me

omega dodges are amazing

S tier content

the following is just trivialized by AM so i don’t consider it much

[jolly flume]

I don't like it either because it's nothing creative

the dodges are just a party synergy rehash with an additional aoe and it's not even fast

sigma and delta are so creative in comparison especially with how they force you to position for dynamis

omega's dynamis feels quite lame

[torn mesa]

I can bump it to a C if you want to argue AM trivializes it

but the second dynamis pass in Omega especially is just like

why the fuck does this take 10s to resolve

[undone tide]

all of p5 is designed to give you time to do the calculus required to properly distribute dynamis stacks

i give omega a significant amount of credit due to the fact that it happens during a burst window

[jagged aspen]

sigma yea, you just send 3 ppl with a stack north, though it's going to go bad in pf. but no way youre doing omega without someone marking people?

or a lot of shouting in vc

[undone tide]

well yes i believe it was intended for people to use markers

just not in the way that we do

[loud nymph]

wtf is happening on aether pf

[loud swift]

i think they really want to clear/farm pandemonium

[jagged aspen]

uhm

must be hector's henchmen trying to get people to stop using kobe strats

[jolly flume]

me when I argue over strats for an entirely trivialized fight

[jagged aspen]

the "nobody used kobe strats in 6.2" argument, as if people that did it in 6.2 are the ones trying to clear it now 😐

the only difference is spreads on first mech anyway iirc

[jolly flume]

I mean it's mildly annoying for people coming back trying to help others get top unlocked I guess

or even any of the people that unsynced with pf strats before 7.0 coming back

but it's piss easy either way who cares

[undone tide]

uptime quickmarch:

[jolly flume]

ok uptime is quantifiably better than cardinals quickmarch

just not for the reason the name implies

[clear plume]

i mean the thing is that kobe has an actual unsync guide and hector does not

[undone tide]

i don’t give a fuck

it’s ucob

[jolly flume]

clearly it's hard

[jolly flume]

because you haven't cleared it

lock in lil bro

[undone tide]

fuck you

“lil bro” like i haven’t been playing longer than you

[jolly flume]

i cleared ucob

[undone tide]

i don’t give a gaf man

ucob doesn’t mean shit

[jolly flume]

stay mad!!! 😹

[undone tide]

actually asinine fight

[zealous meteor]

but have you cleared amon savage. THAT'S what matters

[undone tide]

what even is that

[jolly flume]

24 people with fingers could kill the boss before the bug mattered

the average alliance raid roulette denizen just doesn't have fingers

[undone tide]

side note i’m getting my adhd screening this month

lets go

[jolly flume]

I'm like 95% sure I'm ADHD I just don't care enough to get that written down on a piece of paper

and it doesn't fuck up my life too bad so we ball

[undone tide]

my counselor basically told me “you’re neurodivergent”

he did NOT sugarcoat it

[jolly flume]

noble said I'm autistic

may as well be a proper diagnosis

🔥

[undone tide]

just because he

nvm

[jolly flume]

go on...

[clear plume]

hector fans in kobe channel rn are hilarious

hector guides are "correct"

[sly basin]

dont use any guide just make up strats

[clear plume]

worst guide ever bc its not hector strats kekw

[trim frost]

“where they belong” is kinda crazy

[clear plume]

like is bro implying that somebody who hasnt done p8s since on content isnt watching a video to refresh anyways?

[trim frost]

i haven’t opened p8s since it was current lmao

why would i jump back in without refreshing

[undone tide]

“as someone who has over 20 clears from when it was current content”

like this is a flex

[clear plume]

the wildest part is that like, joonbob p2 WAS STANDAARD PF and not hector anyways

[undone tide]

i miss joonbob

[loud nymph]

joonbob's p8s guide used NA west

[undone tide]

dt babies wouldn’t understand peak joonbob

[loud nymph]

which makes it unironically worse than the others

[vestal hollow]

joon p8s is objectively dogwater

wait no im confusing strats

im getting the dementia

[jolly flume]

joonbob did na west in his video I think

so dogwater might be partially accurate

extremely rare one in a million joonbob L

still the goat otherwise

[versed kayak]

Crystal Tower Boss that was supposed to freeze a player so others can hide behind it for a one-hit kill AoE, had a bug where the frozen rock part didn't appear, so you just died because there was no safespot

I think it affected DSR too?

[loud nymph]

he did

it was a rare misstep

[thin fox]

wtf is happening in aether pf bruh

[clear plume]

hector fans having a conniption about a single pf in 2025 not using his guide bc somebody else made an unsync guide for the start of this expansion

[jolly flume]

the mf in pf saying that didnt even fucking clear 8 on patch

its always these ppl man

gotta rep the goat ig

[thin fox]

[jolly flume]

brother...

[rain geode]

lovely

[clear plume]

thats the guy from the youtube comments

kekw

doesnt even have 20 kills

[loud nymph]

oh boy I love learning about kobe bryant's sexual ass

I'm sure it won't be horrible if I go look it up

[round hazel]

what did I miss

why is p8s back

[loud nymph]

just NA PF having another normal day

[thin fox]

someone in aether pf put up a fight using kobe unsync strats and people started crashing out

because idk aether pf got deprived of a 7.3 ultimate

so now theyre all insane

[round hazel]

LOL

[vestal hollow]

you didnt hear? p8s unreal

[clear plume]

the people mad about this havent done an ultimate tho, bc hector doesnt make guides for them

so they cant

[thin fox]

you mess with one of us you mess with all of us #HectorNation

[craggy apex]

you mess with one of us you mess with all of us #HectorNation

[clear plume]

fwiw, .28 counts on patch for most people, it dropped like 7 weeks into the tier

sept 12th to oct 31st is 6.21

[jolly flume]

ngl I didn't even read the partition titles long enough to see that there was a .28

[trim frost]

oh…?

[clear plume]

.21 was the one that nerfed hp like week 2, and fflogs only partitioned .28 bc it was job changes on like week 8 or 9 or something but yeah

[jolly flume]

buffed war to be able to clear p8s min ilvl 🥀

[rain geode]

another day in pf

[undone tide]

that’s every day, really

[jagged aspen]

whats the point of duty recorder if it works in a couple completely random duties?

[jolly flume]

ppl think I'm serious and it's funny

[jolly flume]

that's the neat part

it's just a dogshit feature

[thin fox]

[jagged aspen]

like, why did they bother implementing it (which mustve been no small feat) just to make it completely unusable with a random limitation like that?

[versed kayak]

I don't think even they know at this point

[rain geode]

[jagged aspen]

[undone tide]

just updated yea i got nothin

[karmic forge]

chat what's the name of that one emote that looks like you're aggressively patting someone's head as a miqote

[worn bluff]

what if duty recorder but it’s 10s killcam like pvp games that plays for everyone after a wipe

[jolly flume]

I would fuckin love that

and make it autoplay after each wipe

[jagged aspen]

isnt that basically /dr

[loud nymph]

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[jolly flume]

death recap doesnt show someone making a moronic mistake in real time game footage

[worn bluff]

show it as a video though

eventually when AI is good enough make it determine whose fault it was and play their POV

[worn bluff]

with an overlay to everyone else “You were killed by _” like FPS games

[loud nymph]

we need dominating/revenge sound effects like in TF2

[rain geode]

yeah this party isnt clearing in a million years

[jolly flume]

LGTM

man there's like no good ult parties up today

guess I really will just go oc

[rain geode]

Im gonna get dinner and hopefully find a better party after

[sly basin]

lol why would u be high to clear

high ff14 is for roulettes where its ok if ur kinda shit

[rain geode]

I could maybe see it if you like goated with the sauce and you have so many clears you can do it with your eyes close

this was not that guy

We wiped 5 times to the tank buster at the start of M6S lol

[loud nymph]

Oh dear

[rain geode]

On the bright side it is a huge confidence boost to myself

[jolly flume]

palace of the dead reference

[loud nymph]

pfing savage always makes me feel so much better about how mediocre at the game I am

[livid grove]

How do u see

[undone tide]

forgot i was goated

need to put these in my resume

[remote gate]

is phase 2 in fru really hard

[jolly flume]

OC is the least fun thing I've ever done in this game

peace out

[zealous meteor]

OC is pure ass

[versed kayak]

getting to floor 50 in potd existed, I'd rather do OC

[jolly flume]

potd is like

two orders of magnitude more fun than this

and I hated potd 1-150

[zealous meteor]

"oh but forked tower is fun!" im not sitting through 20 levels of pure ass (and possibly more to get ciphers and shit) to play something decent

"this applies to the whole game" well yes. however

[jolly flume]

"this applies to the whole game" yeah and who said I enjoy the whole game

[zealous meteor]

difference is that i didn't spend my first 90% of playtime going "wow this fucking sucks but i heard there's a good raid at the end"

which i HAVE done in oc

like for all its faults ARR did hook me about 15 levels in

[dull drum]

no

its piss easy

diamond dust is like your fidget cube

[remote gate]

was watching static prog it and it looked insufferable but thats probably because they were not making much progress

[remote gate]

please continue to slander OC i need more people to agree that it blows

[dull drum]

i always said it blows no one ever believed me

you cant compare it to bozja

[zealous meteor]

OC is like if they made bozja but bad and took all the wrong lessons from eureka

it's impressive

[rain geode]

Arent like all field operations bad?

[dull drum]

no

bozja was good

bozjas literally like 5 years old and still more active than OC

[sly basin]

eureka and bozja are good, but bozja better

eureka can be headache inducing

[latent terrace]

eureka -> everything else

has the most suffering at the start

it's like a wall

[sly basin]

ya its very hard to get ppl into it

but u can get ozma mount...

[rain geode]

especially since there doesnt seem to be be much reason to do it

[molten moon]

DRS > BA

[sly basin]

agreeeeeee drs is so fun

[latent terrace]

but then once you are maxed everything feels easy, and in eureka being cooperative makes everything more efficient

[sly basin]

ft is annoying af

[true beacon]

Eureka has a better community feel than Bozja

[sly basin]

i still havent cleared it

but i see no reason to

[latent terrace]

i agree the bozja raid much better though

[rain geode]

Do I want to try and get another M6S party tonight?

[remote gate]

yes

take a shot for every wipe

[sly basin]

the 1 time ive seen someone say slurs and crash out was bozja

and eureka is just chill af

[remote gate]

two shots if yan tears the team apart

[remote gate]

ive been reported and called things for instant pulling in eureka lolololol

[rain geode]

I think this guy in an earlier party was inebriated enough for both of us

[latent terrace]

bozja was definitely much more popular for various reasons, one of them is it gives exp

[rain geode]

honestly if we're at least getting to add phase Id be happy at this point

[remote gate]

should have stayed

[rain geode]

12 pulls and we saw desert once I think Ill pass

[remote gate]

man I am glad I didnt go further into this tier after recognizing that I wasnt gonna get any good teams runs after a month and a half of m5s hell

hearing the horror stories marce is going thru + this

[rain geode]

I mean its a lotto M5S I completed in 12 pullss

because I got lucky with a party

[remote gate]

the goat vincent in this chat got me my clear after pf couldn't do shit

haven't seen him in this chat for a while

[rain geode]

Yeah I dont think I have more PF in me tonight especially since its getting late enough It could reasonably not fire

which means my options are do an ex, do some OC or just go play runescape

[trim frost]

i miss vincecnt

i hope hes doing okay

[remote gate]

other: go out and get and some ice cream

[sly basin]

play Dress To Impress

[rain geode]

I dont know what that is

[shy obsidian]

surely there are better roblox games than dress to impress

[remote gate]

umamusume

[shy obsidian]

no borrows left though

[remote gate]

just get 3 speed sparks on your oguri cap

[shy obsidian]

speed? not stamina? power?

[remote gate]

nah here's a 1 spark wit with 3 spark into URA finale instead

[rain geode]

Roblox? like work in a pizza place?

[dull drum]

depends what you like

i love torture and mental anguish so i play deepwoken

[daring pine]

stella you just gave me war flashbacks

[dull drum]

you played deepwoken?

im on like

at least 70 guilds hitlists

[daring pine]

yes

on release too

arguably the only time playing solo was fun for me

[torn kindle]

[true beacon]

Yeah but prices will be weird

[craggy marsh]

Won't need to make a full set either

Unless you really care about going super hard on an ex parse

[boreal pumice]

me just making it because number go up

[craggy marsh]

I'll make the full set if it looks bitchin

[alpine plover]

honestly

[daring pine]

praying it looks good unlike the supposed tome gear

[alpine plover]

can they remove the fking tomestone cap already

like honestly

[daring pine]

idk why we have tome cap still when patch is about to release

[alpine plover]

i gotta spend 20 minutes each week to get half of a bis piece because what?

because it's a garbage design

[daring pine]

that too

[craggy marsh]

For some reason they only increase the weekly cap on the final set of tomes after a few months

[daring pine]

2k tome cap but you can only get 450 each week

lol

[craggy marsh]

Dunno why they ignore the others

Ya

[daring pine]

oh it's only the final tier?

[alpine plover]

marce!

[daring pine]

final set*

[alpine plover]

very late into last tier yea

[daring pine]

i think i remember that from when i started

[craggy marsh]

Yeah after a few months the final tomes get increased to 900 a week

[daring pine]

6.55

something something

[craggy marsh]

Or is it 950

Somewhere around there

[tulip anvil]

this shit sucks, heres a picture of my dog

[daring pine]

they should do that for the other ones i think

[boreal pumice]

Play healer , get piety as drops/tomes , use crafted

[alpine plover]

jokes on u

[craggy marsh]

Ya there's a lot they should do differently

[alpine plover]

i alrdy do that

[craggy marsh]

Savage lockout and tome cap unlock taking forever

[alpine plover]

wrong ahaha

mb

[daring pine]

savage unlock takes way too long

ok guys

the next patch is releasing in like three minutes

so now we will let you farm

[craggy marsh]

7 fucking months is stupid

[daring pine]

yeah its dumb

[craggy marsh]

Savage lockout should be lifted when the patch after savage drops

[daring pine]

the odd patch?

[craggy marsh]

Idk why its the .X8 of the odd patch

[daring pine]

so like the unlock being in .3 instead of .38

etc

[craggy marsh]

Ya

[daring pine]

it would depend on your job afaik

[craggy marsh]

Even more dumb is the tome upgrade with AR coins is also locked until .X8

Even tho the relic is available way before it

[daring pine]

better to just check your job's bis and see what you're getting

[alpine plover]

this tier mostly everyone wanted the legpieces

which is cringe

[daring pine]

oh yeah can you upgrade tome wep with ar coins now

i forgot

[craggy marsh]

I remember in Asphodelos tanks wanted tome legs or something so I didnt have to farm P3s

Felt nice

[daring pine]

this was extremely annoying when i was trying to reclear m7s

[craggy marsh]

Always nice when you can skip an annoying fight

[alpine plover]

with static i had to wait a few weeks for the legpiece

[daring pine]

7s was annoying as rdm

not as bad as people say it is

just annoying

[alpine plover]

yea but we get new gear

[daring pine]

yeah ik

i do like my tome wep though

looks nice

[craggy marsh]

I want to redo this tier so I can get a better mental take on it

[daring pine]

patch releasing in 11 days and i still haven't cleared 8s

[craggy marsh]

Week 1 gave me such a bad impression of this tier

[daring pine]

healers cursed to have 5 billion tome pieces

lmfao

[alpine plover]

i will gladly take tome pieces for chest/legs

[daring pine]

hey at least we can farm in advance now

so it wont be as bad

im hoping ex6 doesn't repeat the zelenia incident

[craggy marsh]

You mean having 1 mechanic thats easy but also easy to wipe the group

[daring pine]

no i meant the fucking floor being annoying to look at

[craggy marsh]

Oh ya

[alpine plover]

i agree

lmao

can't see half the mechanics cuz everything blends together

😭

[daring pine]

praying they dont do that again

[craggy marsh]

Escalon 2 isnt hard why the fuck do people still wipe to it

[daring pine]

because they're braindead

like the strat they came up with

[craggy marsh]

People putting braindead on every strat like it means something

Sphere EX braindead ice bridges was worse than the normal ice bridge strat

[alpine plover]

i see the most bricked strats in pf and then hector drops the holy scripture and suddenly game is more playable

[daring pine]

i did ex4 with a temp static (my friends) and we just did ef2 normally

lol

wow so hard guys

so difficult

[craggy marsh]

Until he does a fucky wucky like Zelenia where he made pf adopt another strat even tho pf had already decided on a strat

[robust shoal]

that was annoying af

[craggy marsh]

So he had to make another video about the pf strat

[daring pine]

nah this is real

[craggy marsh]

But people didnt watch that one

[daring pine]

he sounded so fed up in the braindead ef2 video i laughed

[robust shoal]

people would join raidplan parties and do hector

[alpine plover]

😭

[craggy marsh]

Bc it's not braindead at all 😭

[daring pine]

lmfaoo i know

[boreal pumice]

If you call it that it’s more appealing for the majority

[craggy marsh]

Ya

It's stupid

[daring pine]

braindead ex6

[alpine plover]

i think braindead strats are usually 3 times harder than normal ones at this point

[craggy marsh]

Free thinkers when a strat is labeled braindead (it requires more movement and thinking than the normal strat)

Heal this or you will die

Shield and heal as necessary

[alpine plover]

Heal me or i will die (threat)

[daring pine]

ok guys do i play ff9 this morning

[sinful brook]

heal me and i will die (threat)

fixed it

[alpine plover]

[daring pine]

me in p3 dd

[craggy marsh]

Mizzteq guides were fun but people couldn't let her go after the Alexander video even tho nobody played during heavensward

[alpine plover]

by the way

i found out you can survive the fru p2 stacks with no mit

and it doesn't give you 1 stack of debuff either

use this info as you see fit

[sinful brook]

the LR stacks?

[craggy marsh]

P2 stacks no mit strat

[alpine plover]

i forgot to add the most important word

solo

like, you don't need to pair up

[craggy marsh]

Its for the lb gen

Trust

[alpine plover]

both the mirror ones and the lr ones

[sinful brook]

thats funny

is that a 7.3 gear diff

[alpine plover]

i didn't have full 735 gear

i had like 3 pieces

i spooked my healer

(i had like 2k hp left)

oh yea we have LL today right

[craggy marsh]

Ya

[worn bluff]

oh yeah i think melees can survive it

idk about casters/healers

[alpine plover]

i was dnc

[worn bluff]

ok to abandon my range partner and always spread. noted

[dapper zealot]

Omw to parse gay

[rapid whale]

What am I reading

[rapid whale]

There's no way this is real is it

I don't want to believe

[low hearth]

That’s funny asf

[craggy marsh]

Are these people control freaks irl too

[rain geode]

Is parsing gay just getting a 0 because youre to busy kissing the other miqo'te in the party?

[craggy marsh]

If I ever feel sad I remind myself that there's people who treat raiding in xiv like it's an actual job with stakes on the line

[dapper zealot]

chiyo parses gay a lot

[lost flame]

I wonder if people like that have irl jobs and families, or if that's the only way they are able to feel not like the loosers they are.

[craggy marsh]

They definitely don't have jobs or families

[rain geode]

I wish I could parse gay more

[craggy marsh]

The only thing they have in life to be proud of is a colored number in XIV

Take that away from them and they have nothing

Methinks they should seek mental help

[rapid whale]

MY BAD MY BAD MY BAD MY BAD

[craggy marsh]

GET OUT GET OUT

[rapid whale]

ok but fr tho that post comes across so unhinged

[craggy marsh]

"You are not allowed to run ACT"

Do I need permission to bio break or something too

[dapper zealot]

yes

[craggy marsh]

If they deny me my bio then im gonna piss loudly in vc

They made their choice

[dull drum]

anyone ever notice they have a confed flag pfp

[craggy marsh]

I remember when my static lead for this tier got verbally upset bc 2 people needed to pee twice within 40 minutes

[dull drum]

nature calls mb

[dapper zealot]

just piss in your chair

[craggy marsh]

I hope my group for next tier is chill

I just wanna raid and parse gay

[worn bluff]

people who think winning their game is life or death

sadly they are in most online games

[craggy marsh]

"Bro if I lose this match then my family will be executed"

But you won the last 13 games why are you gonna be mad that you lost one

"Because my family will DIE"

[dapper zealot]

I need to win to impress my discord ekitten

[alpine plover]

i am noob

would not be accepted

[dapper zealot]

Tithus, what if we parsed gay

[craggy marsh]

66....just one point away....from 6......7.........67676767676767

(Kill me)

[wicked delta]

Im SCARED BRUH

[dapper zealot]

[sick reef]

wouldnt be surprised

OKAY WE R BACK

[dapper zealot]

omg there's a sashtasha area in the variant dungeon

[sick reef]

[sick reef]

[grave stag]

So i gather that uvi has another 1 million views song

[visual geyser]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47wpSToWcsQ

[grave stag]

Cause that song is peak

[visual geyser]

what in the fuck is goin on

[sick reef]

gpu market after ai

[grave stag]

YAN PLUSH

[dapper zealot]

So that's all the HW fighters in 3 fights. Meaning we'll have our rtx building fight :)

[dapper moon]

https://tenor.com/view/ff7-ff7r-cloud-sephiroth-meteor-gif-19624116

[dapper zealot]

why the fuck do I keep being sent to blongue

[sick reef]

u fight grok

[trim frost]

welcome back bozja solo duty

[grave stag]

12 days till peak

[wicked delta]

I have rewatched that trailer like 5 times now

Well

The Arcadion part specifically

[grave stag]

I dont think jason is singing that song

[loud nymph]

Keeping my fingers crossed for Brute Zombinator but probably not happening, oh well

[stiff sage]

so

8.0 meracydia then yes?

[dapper moon]

he's the everything burn fight lol

[sick reef]

didnt he say we r goin north or sum

[loud nymph]

like that was probably (?) m9 - m11

[thin fox]

dude

those raids look insane

[dapper zealot]

everything burn would probably be the surfer bros

[loud nymph]

yeah that was my thinking as well

[dapper zealot]

cause one guy is fire

[stiff sage]

the mention of the south sea isles in the trailer is making me think meracydia is 8.0

[dapper zealot]

so on the nose

[lyric summit]

why they got ifrit+levi souls

is the champion supposed to be behemoth

[loud nymph]

the elezen being giant demoness lady was something I was not expecting (I was hoping for red comet still) but I am here for it

[thin fox]

the trial looks pretty cool too

[dapper zealot]

All the yuri and yaoi lovers are eating good for HW

[lyric summit]

the trial looks crazy good

[loud nymph]

also love me some non standard arenas on the trial

yes please

[dapper zealot]

several people called felezen being succubus a bit ago

was the gladiator melezen behemoth?

[loud nymph]

possibly? he has the horns

[sick reef]

fear

[dapper zealot]

also are the clips typically of normal or savage?

[trim frost]

presumably wherever this is is the last arena?

usually normal

[visual geyser]

yea

MSQ looks good ngl

more krile

poggies

[grave stag]

They never show the savage boss

[timid epoch]

always normal

[visual geyser]

last tier they showed all 4

but usually they only show 3

[wicked delta]

Yeah I swear Howling Blade’s P2 was shown for a lil bit

Could be misremembering tho

[sick reef]

rtx building fight as snowy said

[visual geyser]

it was

[loud nymph]

in the trailer? I don't think so

[visual geyser]

the transisiton animation

not hte actual form

[timid epoch]

they wanna keep the finale secret

[loud nymph]

ah ok

[wicked delta]

Yeah

[grave stag]

Did it look like they were not spoiling much of the story this time?

[visual geyser]

dont think this patch story will be that much

[lyric summit]

their names but good luck reading that

[visual geyser]

.4 is usually just setup

[grave stag]

Usually they have a few out of context spoilers

[wicked delta]

Gay and gayer

[visual geyser]

this tho

[dapper zealot]

time to start parsing gay

[visual geyser]

can i get an entire expansioon is ultra fucked up shit like this

please

[loud nymph]

second one looks like "redhot"

[wicked delta]

I parse 100 in gay

[visual geyser]

oh my goooooooooooooooooooooood

this looks so sick

[lyric summit]

probably cosmic planet

[trim frost]

left looks like deep… something

[timid epoch]

"blowjob brothers" (sarcasm)

[visual geyser]

def not

theres a green one too

[timid epoch]

deep blue and red hot i think

[sick reef]

coolguy and redhot 🔥

[dapper zealot]

nah we already know that it's oizys

oizys la

[timid epoch]

ok yeah it's deep blue and red hot

[dapper zealot]

These might be bits of the 9th that got fucked up

[loud nymph]

show us what the trial boss theme is, cowards

[proper cave]

Not showing off the trial this time. Probs floor 9 but they say they have a lot to do this time

[loud nymph]

I demand man with the machine gun

[proper cave]

They had a remix of the FF9 boss theme

Probs that

[sick reef]

train boss has phases naw

[loud nymph]

thank fuck 2 totems

[sick reef]

memory game time

[wicked delta]

Totemge

[sick reef]

2 totems, make it standard yoship n ff14 is saved

[thin fox]

I keep rewatching the Arcadion part of the trailer

[thin fox]

this is actual PEAK cinema

[dapper zealot]

So they might keep it 1-2 totems but reduce cost?

[loud nymph]

reducing cost for 1 totem fights would be cool

[timid epoch]

"oh boy i cant wait to grind 100 wins for the new pvp mount" he lied

[loud nymph]

idk why they wouldn't just

make every fight a 2 totem fight

[sick reef]

if they retroactively reduce costs itd be peak

[loud nymph]

such a bizarre way of doing it

[violet sedge]

this guy bossfight will be crazy

look like the no mercy icon

[wicked delta]

Because Square hates you

[robust shoal]

so how do we feel about honey b being an actual dragoon

[violet sedge]

we gonna fight the strongest gnb in history

[loud nymph]

based based based

[robust shoal]

wonder what exactly they're fighting there

maybe president

[loud nymph]

my guess is the president

since it's all the fighters

[timid epoch]

the president but he absorbs the brute bomber's soul and becomes the brute undertaker

[lyric summit]

wicked thunder in a jar

could be her

[violet sedge]

myke tyson

[lyric summit]

as final fight

[sick reef]

peak

[violet sedge]

absoulute fantasy

[sick reef]

i wonder if we can export

[dapper zealot]

I'd be severely disappointed if we don't fight the rtx building

[alpine plover]

what is the glam update exactly

[dapper zealot]

7.4

[sick reef]

glams are not job restricted

[robust shoal]

Another wicked thunder fight would be cool

[loud nymph]

removing level and job restrictions on gear

[dapper zealot]

oh what

[lyric summit]

she's in the final arena too
