Btn actually serves a purpose atleast

thin fox
#

its crazy that a scholar doing book autos at level 100 probably would out dps reaper in TEA

versed kayak
#

war with the reverse where you only get it from your AoE rotation for a few levels

dapper zealot
#

Turn reaper into a limited job

jade nimbus
#

Remember... that they once made funky shit in dungeons

#

So no I need some jobs to remain because they are good punchlines

worn bluff
thin fox
#

me when i bring rpr/vpr/mch to tea so i can pad for parse

jade nimbus
#

Well, rip Dzemael I guess

dapper zealot
#

The crystals can go fuck themselves

#

But the aurum piss puddles rip

verbal frost
#

How can you act like viper is well designed job rn and then act like we know what’s good for game

#

It’s just monk and reaper combined

deft yarrow
#

tbh I think aurum got off easy

pale blade
#

hwat

deft yarrow
#

well not easy

thin fox
#

viper at 100 is good. the leveling is bad but that's almost every job in this game honestly.

jade nimbus
deft yarrow
#

I just think they kept most of what I regard as "aurum vale staples" intact

thin fox
#

black mage is barely even playable until 80

jade nimbus
#

Also kinda teached you about moving bosses I guess for tanks, but not really

#

It will be a sad sad day when they change the tonberry dungeon too

deft yarrow
#

yeah no piss puddles, and there are less of those patroling wasps, but I can say its good ol Aurum Vale

worn bluff
#

i found RPR 2 min to be more engaging than VPR but that’s because VPR has the most straightforward standard burst in the game

deft yarrow
#

cant say the same for Dzmael tho

worn bluff
#

maybe it’s the stockholm syndrome talking

deft yarrow
#

...mostly because ther's nothing good ol about that

thin fox
#

its literally

#

the same burst

pale blade
#

look if Reaper stops being a joke I will find a new joke

jade nimbus
worn bluff
#

double enshroud at least required you to start beforehand

pale blade
#

some people underestimate how much I enjoy things because it’s funny

thin fox
#

anyway i would be beyond shocked if that 8.0 rework did not involve converting every single job to single button combo jobs like viper and picto

verbal frost
#

Even at 100 VPR is still bad design lol

pale blade
jade nimbus
verbal frost
#

Reaper contribute more damage than viper though

thin fox
#

i think viper and pictomancer are a better model for what the 8.0 jobs will look like than any dawntrail patch adjustments

verbal frost
#

Viper has been the worst melee the whole expansion meta wise

trim frost
verbal frost
#

Reaper has a raidbuff and a stronger 2min burst so it’s automatically a better job

pale blade
#

I still think about that one Reaper who is dogshit at his job and just parses gray across the board

jade nimbus
#

Like, I think vpr and picto were just testing the 1 button melee combos

thin fox
#

ok but reaper is boring as shit and viper is fast so its fun

jade nimbus
#

And tbh I don't mind it on viper

pale blade
#

I also think about why the fuck he is a male Au Ra

verbal frost
#

Ye reaper players suck

#

That’s why we get bad rep

thin fox
mossy eagle
#

Don't get baited don't get baited don't get baited...

jade nimbus
#

Dunno how it'll feel on dragoon and other jobs

verbal frost
#

1 button combo is good for the game

thin fox
#

1 button combos = we can get more combos on jobs

#

so i think it's a good thing

verbal frost
#

Opens up more opportunity for non filler actions

mossy eagle
worn bluff
#

basically the only way to consistently get grays on RPR is to have shit uptime or be undergeared. you don’t even need to double enshroud to get greens/blues

thin fox
#

i mean look at picto and viper

#

i don't even know how to count viper's combos

#

honestly

#

since they fucking criss cross and my brain just goes

jade nimbus
#

Tanks should also be fine with it

thin fox
#

picto has 2 combos not counting hammer

verbal frost
#

Viper is bad design because it essentially has zero ogcds while having a boring gcd rotation

dapper zealot
#

Some level of compacting is nice, maybe not vpr/pct levels tho

trim frost
#

zero ogcds he says

thin fox
#

YOU

verbal frost
#

Every ogcd is tied to a gcd action

thin fox
#

PLAY

#

REAPER

verbal frost
#

How is reaper boring

#

Do you play the job lol

thin fox

#

reaper is literally worse machinist

verbal frost
#

Sure there are other fun melees like ninja and samurai

#

They each are different

pale blade
#

I feel like that Flork comic needs to be pinned

thin fox
#

how do you say viper "essentially has zero ogcds while having a boring gcd rotation" while reaper is literally 123 with a positional every 3 minutes

mossy eagle
#

ninja fun

Look inside

Literally nothing happening outside of burst.

verbal frost
jade nimbus
#

Damn

#

You got baited

#

Smh

thin fox
verbal frost
#

Ninja is more flex than dragoon and monk wym

thin fox
#

mch is a much better designed job than rpr lol

verbal frost
#

Ye reaper can see many improvements every job can lol

pale blade
#

man this isn’t even trying

#

when I do it at least I make it funny

trim frost
thin fox
#

in terms of single target job design machinist gaps most jobs in the game imo

trim frost
#

anyway @daring pine cookage or no

image.png
verbal frost
thin fox
#

machinist is better designed than i would say every tank/healer, most of the melees, and like half of the casters

#

for single target

verbal frost
#

Machinist is good design

thin fox
#

if you count multitarget then well

pale blade
mossy eagle
trim frost
#

wait i have an improvement(?) idea

thin fox
#

i think black mage and red mage are better designed than machinist though

trim frost
mossy eagle
#

Oh shit he cooking

#

Paladin players should not be allowed to have sex

and also because im still doing butt bootshines likes its 2020

pale blade

there

verbal frost
#

But they will probably ruin it 8.0

mossy eagle
pale blade
#

actually add White Mage players too

#

they should be celibate at all times

tired egret

hm

how do you replace a 3 button combo with a 4 button

tired egret
#

nvm

jagged aspen
#

black replaces white

tired egret
#

ah

wicked delta

#

the bigger issue is that pct is CYM and CMY

#

for some reason

verbal frost
#

Every job can be improved low lvl not just a reaper thing

#

The job you say is better than reaper has a two button rotation at lvl 50 and doesn’t get reawaken until lvl 90

PCT is pretty good at lower levels. idk what they were thinking with VPR

making mit plans to cheese

Popping mitigation for uptime is like uptime 101

I am not making sure I spare buddy mit for melees who want to stand in an aoe in an extreme

🤔 why is act/fflogs separate from dalamud ?

jagged aspen
#

historical reasons ig

#

ppl were more paranoid about plugins before

loud nymph
#

I think act has a lot more functionality than what Dalamud can enable

#

So it being a separate program is to allow it to have those extra features like spell triggers / callouts / etc

But yeah, swapping to cloudflare DNS service free version blocks it and basically has no downside I’ve seen so far and it’s privacy policy seems fair so yeah, it’s my recommendation personally, but if you already have one of the listed VPNs for the game anyways, may as well use the setting and be fine

How useful is that strategy board during raids?

Also how long do we have this tomestone tier for?

Until next expansion

This is the last big ilvl bump until then

Cool whens that?

1 year and a half more or less

Well, more like 1 year and 3-4 months

Im almost ready for savage

sinful brook
#

I'm not idk how to play the job I'm gonna play

#

Gcd drift is fucking my 2m

rain geode
#

Altho now Im trying to figure out what gear I should be going for in general

low hearth
#

That might be bad

rain geode
#

Thankfully most of bis seems to be pretty obvious

robust shoal
#

or 2.46 if you're feeling spicy

rain geode
#

do I want crit + det or Crit + Pie... hmmm /s

clear plume
#

Answer is piety bc dps check will be free so extra mana for res is op op

sinful brook
rain geode
#

I mean but like the two sets Im between one is technically higher damage but the other one has more crit + pie (but less DH)

sinful brook
#

I'm sure part of it is my skissue

#

But also part of it is the gcd itself

worn bluff
rain geode
#

Like these are the two set Im between aiming for

Screenshot_2025-12-24_142451.png
boreal pumice
#

PIE

rain geode
#

its the best stat in the game

#

lets me rez the lemmings that are my teamates more

sinful brook
#

It's preference but imo I'd go for the pie set especially for prog and pf

rain geode
#

your probably right

sinful brook
#

It sims lower DPS but realistically in prog you're not hitting those numbers anywayd

#

And I used extra pie last tier anyways and had no problems hitting purple+

#

Even pinked and orange a bit too

clear plume
#

I say is half as a joke but really honest, the amount of efficient piety people give up on for prog to have 0 is really high, having some will help

sinful brook
#

Imo you can't really see the DPS difference tangibly during the pull anyways that isn't affected by variance so trying to minmax the damage to that extent for most people is pointless

#

But like if the piety nets you like let's say 15 points of mp a tick that's still like pretty significant over the course of a fight

rain geode
#

how often is a tick again?

#

its it like dot ticks were its 3s?

robust shoal
#

3 seconds yeah

rain geode
#

alright I think I have gearing completely figured out for now

jolly flume
#

i'm ok with min piety on 2.4 or slower but any faster I'd start taking it in significant amounts

#

or just...not play fast sets

#

What do I want to do first M9-12 for tokens or my unreal

you can bring whatever in basically any fight in the entire game except TOP

As long as you aren’t wiping to Doomtrain enrage GIGACOOKED

TOP is the only fight that actually 'forces' double melee and even then that's not technically true

ive done that but opposite, fake caster/range since we had 3 melee

That tends to work a lot less well but you can do it

especially in like ex where things aint that hard but depending on the fight you might lose a lot of uptime

#

3 melee dps might actually be the use case for 2:6 lmao

Do you need a fast kill time or sum?

thin fox

as far as kill times work you want something close to a 2m rather than a particular speed

low hearth
#

Oh

Can’t you kill like during the first 2 minutes of the last car if people aren’t drooling and dying to the first spreads?

#

or around then

thin fox
#

you can kill pretty quickly

jagged aspen
#

what fight, ex6?

thin fox

I would say an average good party for me kills right after the first set of pair/spread on final car

you can kill 8:30 ish quite easily with gear and fewer deaths
