How does monk peform in endgame? been playing with in early levels and its pretty busted

wicked delta
#

been a top melee since release

true beacon
#

It exists

#

Like the others

wicked delta
#

this raid tier is no different lol

#

it suffers a bit more than the other melees rn bc of the fact that a lot of mechs will force you to lose uptime

#

but its still a top melee so lol

worthy halo
#

Sick

zealous meteor
#

how can it be a top melee in a fight that isn't TOP /s

amber fable
#

Vpr might be doing better atm

#

But with bis and greed monk should do better

zealous meteor
#

yeah but then you have to play viper despairge

amber fable
#

I like viper

rapid whale
#

How am I supposed to sleep now I'm too excited

#

But I know I need to sleep

#

Hot take: M10S snaking debuffs should have been random within roles rather than proximity

sleek moon
#

would it have changed anything though

#

the way people solve that doesnt matter who are the other 3 with you

#

other than maybe which dps baits third/fourth for fire

mossy eagle
#

I had people not baiting correctly initially, and I found it fun to adjust on the fly rather than knowing exactly what you would be doing once your clock spot was selected

#

The mechanic solution would not change (other DPS needing a number priority system for protean spots and cleanse order), but each pull would just have a tiny bit more variety in it

scarlet lintel
#

its a new day and its time to deal with the hardest mechanic in m12s:

#

getting the party to fill

mossy eagle
#

Perils of being a PF warrior in the final stages of prog

#

Everyone is walled by 11 currently

somber forge
#

Finally finished M9 last night after some really bad PF luck. Won 2 accesories though so now I need to decide what job to use the earring on since my main job doesn't need it.

mossy eagle
#

Be a tank

remote gate
#

i saw one m12s prog last night and billion 10 parties

rain geode
#

Yeah Im not sure how your supposed to get a PF group through 10S

random needle
#

That's the neat part

boreal pumice
#

link them the hector video ez

remote gate
#

posted on twitter, current m12s clears by jobs

#

not surprising that gunbreaker is so low

boreal pumice
#

is it weaker or ppl dont like the change

random needle
#

Summoner found dead in Seattle

boreal pumice
#

hey tbf that was blm

sleek moon
#

is reaper so low just because these downtime fights ruin double enshroud or something?

rain geode
#

I think its mostly the reaper just doesnt really bring a lot to the table in general rn.

molten moon
#

Gauge negative + downtime

#

= sadness

true beacon
worn bluff
#

also downtime forces more nonstandard stuff for RPR and your average RPR player does not want to deal with that

jolly flume
#

there's just

#

no upside to bringing that job as compared to any of the others

true beacon
#

Said the one that preferred whm in M11S

boreal pumice
#

what changes would you make to rpr outside just delete?

jolly flume
#

I'm not even going to dignify that with a response

#

please refer to what I've said like 60 times since 7.4 about white mage

remote gate
#

shout outs to the one smn that cleared though

boreal pumice
#

only thing i can think of is literally just being a drg harpe insta cast but you enchanced harpe when you egress to do more dmg like drg

amber fable
#

It needs 12 normal gcd to match one gluttony for guage

#

Harpe is sorta crap tbf

true beacon
#

I mean I like whm

amber fable
#

Whm dont have mit issue now

visual geyser
#

Homogenize the jobs further

amber fable
#

That 1m mit helps a lot

#

Plus opener misery

#

Yes please make gap closers non damaging

#

Its moronic that its damage for some jobs still...dont care if its more homogenization

#

Make utility pure utility

visual geyser
#

That’s how 90% of the homegenization happened

amber fable
#

And?

#

The fuck does it matter anyway

visual geyser
#

Just funny

worn bluff
#

PLD gap closer doing damage does not make me feel that the job is more unique or fun

amber fable
#

People cry over job homogenization then cry oh no xyz job is worse at zyx fight

visual geyser
#

^

#

I just find it funny the second one job can do something else people expect all the other jobs to also do it mewpaissa

#

Which isn’t a bad thing in a lot of cases

amber fable
#

Se game Philosophy is none left behind

#

Altho its not 100% successful

#

Its like 95% successful

worn bluff
#

motifs are better soulsow

amber fable
#

Motifs is what smn summons should have been

#

Long cast

#

Big damage

visual geyser
#

How bad is smn rn

amber fable
#

Then prange mode again

#

Smn is below mch

#

Assuming full uptime

visual geyser
#

lol

#

Shouldn’t mch be above it tho

#

I don’t hate that

amber fable
#

Prnage are usually below casters

visual geyser
#

I mean yea but mch doesn’t have anything but damage

amber fable
#

Even with raid buffs included

#

Smn is low

boreal pumice
#

can throw a wrench at things

visual geyser
#

Of course but still

amber fable
#

But like...for pug setting smn is decent enough

boreal pumice
#

thing is if your doing mits right /healers dont suck then its just not needed

visual geyser
#

Smn should just be a flashy job that sucks

worn bluff
#

phoenix right during heal check uwucarby

visual geyser
#

Don’t hate it

amber fable
#

Smn players in pf are better than melee

#

Atleast their ass is dying to dumbass greed

visual geyser
#

But every dps wants their job to be big damage

amber fable
#

Yeah...thats the point of dps

visual geyser
#

Well balance wise every job can’t do the exact same damage

amber fable
#

Balance within role is close for everyone minus caster

#

Smn is gapped

#

And mch for prange

visual geyser
#

Mch doing more damage than Smn doesn’t sound to bad to me on paper 🤔

boreal pumice
#

the rezz tax

quick verge
#

the mythical rez tax

rain geode
#

MCH is fine imo its just that like in prog why would you give up "double dipping" on gear DNC gives you

visual geyser
#

W excuse

#

Doesn’t smn also have issues that aren’t damage related tho

amber fable
#

Buff comp is simply better

visual geyser
#

Like downtime fuks it hard I’d imagine

amber fable
#

If you arent a buffer then you sure as hell need to be good feeder

visual geyser
#

Kinda like when bard couldn’t do their songs without a target

rain geode
#

Im pretty sure SMN problem is almost purely damage

amber fable
#

Smn would be good in downtime cuz its all cd

#

No guage

#

Its just damage wise other casters would still blow it

visual geyser
#

Haven’t played smn in forever

#

Forgot that bahamut was just a cd

boreal pumice
#

smn is just somthing ya play when being extra lazy

rain geode
#

Like they made it basically a phys ranged so it gets that "tax" and it has a rez so it double taxed

visual geyser
#

Ye that’s why I I’m not mad at mch doing more than it in full uptime haha

amber fable
#

Its more so how gapped smn is

sleek moon
#

wdym smn is great

-# /s

amber fable
#

Play smn if thats what you like still...nothing wrong with it

rain geode
#

Id rather a SMN who knows how to do mechanics over a BLM who doesnt

fierce matrix
#

Its damage is core to that too since BLM has no rez but pumps soooo much out it doesnt matter

dusk sky
#

I think G1 Sword to Scythe W is gonna be my biggest pain point this tier bloberm

#

AST dash when

fierce matrix
#

RDM and PCT both have so much utility, and RDM having dualcast for rezzes

fierce matrix
#

If it happens for weapons 1 and weapons 2 swiftcast and glhf

#

Its even worse as a MT

#

:)

dusk sky
fierce matrix
#

Its just getting used to the speed

dusk sky
#

Yeah, like just clocking when sword’s already gone off so you can hoof it

fierce matrix
#

The timing is really tight tho

#

Thats why I like the charbydistopia weapons

#

They will always be on cards rotating clockwise/counter

#

So you have so much time to get there

dusk sky
#

Yeah, it’s worst movement is like, SW to N or so,

#

Or any other variation like that distance

fierce matrix
#

Yeah, its those long hauls

#

Just give me protean scythe first every time

#

Pls and ty

remote gate
#

hey furenn youre like this close 🤏 to clearing m12 right

fierce matrix
#

Nah we cleared

#

Yesterday

remote gate
#

which fight do you see being the hardest to reclear

fierce matrix
#

It locked in at a 26 im so dogshit LETSGO

clear plume
#

i had a 0.02% enrage kms

fierce matrix
#

Im waiting to see pf strats and "braindead" strats

remote gate
#

im more concerned about 10 than anything

fierce matrix
#

We kinda cooked our own stuff

#

And we have discovered things we missed LOL

remote gate
#

the following weeks are when more dumb stuff is discovered for fights right

fierce matrix
#

Yep

#

So whenever strats come out some fights will be easier

sleek moon
fierce matrix
#

11 I think will be easier to clear with braindead markers on spots

clear plume
#

unless dpscheck is just free on relclears

fierce matrix
#

So tether resolve is ez as fuck

remote gate
clear plume
#

11 has one mech to it really and its really easy once you know it

fierce matrix
clear plume
#

yeah but i mean

#

free free

#

7 deaths level

fierce matrix
#

I had 3 deaths on my kill

#

Plus 5 DDs

#

And we tank LB3ed

#

And we still killed before the cast

remote gate
#

do the brothers need to die at the same time

fierce matrix
#

With downtime strats too

#

No

#

We killed one of them like 3% before the other

#

Lmao

remote gate
#

gotcha

worn bluff
dusk sky
#

It’s funny, the first day we only had like four pulls of 10 where snaking targeted the opposite side, then the next day we only saw like two pulls where it didn’t

#

Love a mech that forces people to learn both roles

fierce matrix
#

Its either always opposite or always same, no fucking clue what determines that

dusk sky
#

Yeah I figure it’s either the brothers target the nearest or the farthest with their debuffs

worn bluff
fierce matrix
#

I think its silly for almost every savage fight CAUGHT

worn bluff
#

true

fierce matrix
#

Also can we teach PF to do the last water Tank buster properly please

#

Ive seen this like 4 times now

dusk sky
#

When you can tell the ranged or healer isn’t comfortable with water side and your safe space on fire after the Alley-oops is a hair wide

fierce matrix
#

When you do the last mech, have the FIRE tank take the water buster

remote gate
#

you know now that im thinking about it m9 was way easier than m5

fierce matrix
#

Because the water boss FOLLOWS the water tank

craggy marsh
#

Im looking forward to seeing 9 just completely fall over in the later weeks

fierce matrix
#

So the furthest tank is???

#

FIRE

#

OH MY GOD

remote gate
#

waaay less chances to fuck up and have a party explode in m9 than m5

fierce matrix
#

This is so hard

remote gate
craggy marsh
sleek moon
#

ngl that didnt even cross my mind but it makes sense lol

#

it should be fire tank

#

nobody loses uptime

fierce matrix
#

EXACTLY

dusk sky
#

Oh so he snaps back to water tank after

fierce matrix
#

Yep

#

He follows the water tank after the alleyoop

#

Then jumps to the furthest

#

At that point whoever is opposite tank can just pop mit and everyone stack under water

#

You can even sit meleeing the fire

#

Then take the puddles towards fire

#

Mech resolved

dusk sky
#

Oh, I can’t wait for freaky pyrotations to be soloable with literally any gear

fierce matrix
#

Instead of praying everyone gets close enough in and popping sprint

dusk sky
#

My partner was having trouble so I solo’d a lot of ‘em

dapper zealot
#

Sounds so simple. Literally impossible to do

fierce matrix
#

So true

dusk sky

#

Ok I'm now at that unfortunant prog point where it seems people are always stumped

#

Why can noone do hell in a cell?

craggy marsh
#

All the good pf people cleared so now you have the bad people

dim pollen
#

I was making the popcorn

#

T_T

dusk sky
#

I figured 9’s only real point is just second screech…

boreal pumice
#

weekend dad gamers

craggy marsh
#

Second screech is an easy mech if people take a second to pay attention and think

dusk sky
#

Add priorities and not getting mowed down by saws and voices

sleek moon
dim pollen
#

Lol

fierce matrix
#

The hardest part to me is not killing my melee with vamp stomp aoes on certain bat patterns

craggy marsh
#

Undead deathmatch also isnt that bad imo

fierce matrix
#

Everything else is an ex trial

quick verge
#

which one is undead deathmatch

dim pollen
#

Bats

fierce matrix

But bro trying to dodge those fuckers greeding uptime

dim pollen
#

And teethers

sleek moon
fierce matrix

LOL

craggy marsh
fierce matrix
quick verge
#

oh

#

thats a caster mechanic

fierce matrix
#

Undead deathmatch is a fucking normal dungeon mech

sleek moon
#

if the bat aoes are north south the tanks just fuck anyone in their path

worn bluff
fierce matrix
#

Yep

dim pollen
#

It can be tough if your not quick

#

Or playing casters

dusk sky
#

Why is the cast undead death match when the actual tower is bloody bondage

#

Much better cast name imo

dim pollen
#

Cause bondage is by yourself a death match involves 2 people

sleek moon
#

also bat+chain was where i died on my clear pensiveClown

dim pollen
#

Rip

sleek moon
#

idk whats up with the fucked up snapshotting there

dusk sky

Doesn’t undead deathmatch just set up the bat towers 😭

i dont record

dim pollen
#

Yes but your chained to the bats

quick verge
#

u didnt

#

its that or u got that peru ping

dim pollen
#

Like how bombers death match is tieing you to him

dusk sky

When you think it’s alternating cleaves but really sanguine scratch is the most fucked up rotating pattern actually

sleek moon

nah im way closer to the US than that, i got 91ms ping

fierce matrix
#

Chat I got a grey am I shit?

quick verge
#

yes

#

why didnt you pad in 10

fierce matrix
#

Cause I died

quick verge
#

pad next week

fierce matrix

Thats the goal

#

Also we have tanks in the orb

quick verge
#

get your weapon and its time for historical 100 demon runs

dusk sky
#

The 10 padding is wild

dapper zealot
fierce matrix
#

We are running splits too

dusk sky
#

I only whiffed one gravity on our kill CatJam

sleek moon
#

then 9 padding is wilder, all your parses will be double rng now

fierce matrix
#

So I get weapon w2

dusk sky
#

I think it was when Red Hot jumped away for arena split

sleek moon
#

crit rng + spawn pattern

quick verge
#

9 padding is light work

#

you hit your cleave buttons and they hit no matter where you are

sleek moon
#

yeah but hes a tank

craggy marsh
quick verge
#

have a mnk take a far tower

worn bluff
#

i think the water buster problem might also be solved the normal way if water tank gap closes to fire so both bosses are together anyways

but then you need to save a 2nd gap close to do the funny snapshot

dusk sky
#

Wait it’s name changes??

fierce matrix
#

No

craggy marsh
#

Oh it doesnt?

quick verge
#

no

dusk sky
fierce matrix
#

Nope

craggy marsh
#

Lame

fierce matrix
#

Its just lindworm

i still havent seen an english vid of that tbh, i only saw lucrezia's

I thought so, like it does become a House of the Dead Magician looking fucker, but same name

fierce matrix

WE ARE WITNESSING THE BIRTH OF A NEW LINDWORM

#

kihra is just boring and doesnt give it a cool name

dusk sky
#

I guess the code Veronica boss is closer

craggy marsh
#

So is this the first time we dont have a fight named after the raid series

fierce matrix
#

Listen when im teleporting fucking dimensions

sleek moon
#

rip arcadion prime

fierce matrix
#

I really dont care

sleek moon
#

maybe in the ultimate

fierce matrix
#

This fight is banger

dusk sky
#

Smh why didn’t the president name the Arcadion after Lindblum

quick verge
#

is the last mechanic in 12-2 hard

dusk sky
#

Looks @ them causing the apocalypse

worn bluff
quick verge
#

or is it just visualslop

fierce matrix
#

Not even close to visual slop tbh

sleek moon
#

it looks like memoryslop

fierce matrix
#

Its easy to parse out whats going on

#

But you have to remember stuff

dapper zealot
quick verge
#

can someone call it out because i dont play this game to remember mechanics

dusk sky
#

It looks like the type of encounter where the boss spends 60% of time just setting up

sleek moon
#

i think you gotta remember what your clone has but the other stuff can be called out?

worn bluff

all of the feral souls combine alexander style into the building and you fight the building

I understand completely now dracthyr_noted

fierce matrix

No

sleek moon

like see 10 and 12 are the first and third stock mechanics

fierce matrix
#

E12S had two stocks and two releases

sleek moon

which is a crazy thing to do

fierce matrix
sleek moon

at least its not remembering a cast bar in the middle of burst window like certain other fights

fierce matrix
#

The worst part is you are just hitting a fucking striking dummy for a minute straight

#

Then its like

#

OKAY RESOLVE GO GO GO GO

quick verge
#

the most puzzleslop fight to ever puzzleslop

fierce matrix
#

And the downtime is during a 1 min and the mechs are during the 2

#

Its not even puzzle swap

#

Slop

#

Whatever

sleek moon
#

i saw a tweet that brings the idea that this was cut from FRU

fierce matrix
#

Its the mechs memory

quick verge
#

yea thats puzzleslop

worn bluff
#

i think i’m ready for m10 clear party i just have to resist the intrusive thoughts to gap close the final water buster

#

because if i fuck it up on a clear pull i’m uninstalling

quick verge
#

just max melee

fierce matrix
# quick verge yea thats puzzleslop

The difference is puzzle means like parsing out a bunch of debuffs and shit. This is simple mechs just memorizing when they are going off.

Think like p8s p2

That shit is puzzle slop

if you're using hg cant you just chill in the fire

you only cant feint if blue boy is in the wall

if there’s no clean cone

it gives 15s bleed but you have plenty of mit for it to use if you want

There's so much downtime in 10. No using any coil in melee range on viper. Gotta save them all for being out of range.

I read a post on reddit people are really getting angry in US for the DDoS attacks, people are hating the game?

#

you know how's reddit so I wouldn't trust who post there xD

visual geyser
#

Games been fine recently

#

Think they stopped attacking

sleek moon
#

we got 3 days of peace

boreal pumice
#

after the race it stopped

#

but lets be real if you were getting ddos over an over why woulnt you be pissed?

visual geyser
#

Yea they will continue

spice path
#

Its been okay for a few days. But it was very very annoying. Yeah we were mad.

visual geyser
#

Thing is most of the ddos usually happens in the .x5 patches

jaunty pulsar
#

any idea who may be the attacker?

visual geyser
#

No because that’s the point of a ddos xd

jaunty pulsar
#

sadly I wouldn't blame SE for it, it happens quite a bit from time to time since I started playing

#

personally I still think it's competitors doing it, but ppl say no

spice path
#

Its probably even multiple people. Some people might not even know they are part of it because its malware that turns their home router into a ddos machine basically.

boreal pumice
#

you can have a list all you like but you cant prove it , i could say your doing it , my evidence? i made the fuck up

jaunty pulsar
#

I agree

craggy marsh
#

I don't blame SE for it but I do think it's funny how Yoshi said they have their defences in place for the ddos during world first

#

when he actually meant defences for JP

kind elm
#

like im shocked they havent even said anything other than that lodestone post that pops up every few days

craggy marsh
#

ya

kind elm
#

we can absolutely blame SE for the absolute dysfunctional community communication about what is happening

boreal pumice
#

well hes gonna have a fun LL to explain it or a NA fan fest

craggy marsh
#

while I know other games get ddos happen to them idk if it's the same frequency as XIV

#

like with WoW I rarely notice a ddos

dull drum
jaunty pulsar
#

yeah I also got pissed a year ago when it happened on eu ngl

boreal pumice
#

wow got DDOS alot during the onlyfangs event (streamer thing) to get theor hardcore characters killed

jaunty pulsar

the goal of the ddos is make us stop playing

maybe you are forgetful and need a reminder where to be

stick it somewhere like the right bottom right below the party list w/e

how do you

hold 2mins

#

in bubble

#

do you send 1s then wait a bit after bubble pops to send 2s?

#

or do you not send anything

amber fable
#

Each fire tether does like 10% damage

#

I was on drk and didnt had to spend anything beside doing some egde

#

You can probably do 1m still

#

If your dps is good then you can hold

jagged aspen
#

so that it aligns with burst after insane air 2

#

i dont remember the timestamp on that but you cant hold for too long

worn bluff
#

i think it’s 15% per fire

jagged aspen
#

yes its 15 per

#

regardless of defense up

worn bluff
#

if bubble is 15% by last hit you win

6

amber fable
#

Okay

jagged aspen

i think theyre completely random

#

so you can get 6 fires or smth

#

but not sure

amber fable
#

Well 6x15 is 90 already

#

So 8.6m hp have to get dpsed

#

1m at start of bubble should be fine

jagged aspen
#

my tomestone is barely working im trying to check timings

worn bluff

i thought 1s come up at end of snaking and then middle of bubble

#

I dont remember exactly when it starts

#

In that case full hold

#

Fight timeline wise

worn bluff
#

idk what people normally do w the 1s but yeah i held them just bc we didn’t need the damage on bubble

#

and then pot after with 2s

idk the timeline to know if you lose a use of 1s that way

low hearth
#

Hold 1s and 2s

#

Send everything under pot after

#

Giga cleave

jagged aspen
#

ok so insane air 2 finishes at 8:40

#

which is when you want to send last nukes

#

so you have a total of 40s delay

#

bubble ends at 6:30 ish

#

so you send 2mins there

#

and it works out fine

#

and it starts at 5:40 ish

#

so youre not losing 1mins

#

unless youre failing to kill bubbles

#

aka

0:0x 2min+1min
...
5:0x 1min
<bubble phase>
6:30 2min+1min
7:30 1min
8:40 2min+1min
9:40 1min

Uh

#

If you’re playing with plumbers you gotta send a lil gauge ngl

jagged aspen
#

with earlier buffs if youre lacking damage on ball

low hearth
#

Ts be having like 0.5% left

jagged aspen
#

its fine to send on last dashes or w/e

#

to finish ball

#

also you have a couple seconds to finish it after mech ends

#

so you can do giga cleave on 3 targets

low hearth
#

Triple cleave fbfunni

jagged aspen
#

but ofc that situation is kinda scuffed and you shouldve been sending cds earlier if its that tight

worn bluff
#

i feel like parallel helps a lot w making things predictable for average PF to DPS

low hearth
#

Ts was rough before parallel bro

#

😭

#

Tank jail was the worst strat ever

sinful brook
jagged aspen
#

yes but you cant get more than 6 tethers yourself xd

sinful brook
#

So each set of tethers is a water and a fire

jagged aspen
#

i mean each player can get more than 2 i think

sinful brook
#

But you can't get more than 2 no

#

Unless deaths

jagged aspen
#

hmm i didnt quite pay attention then

worn bluff
#

idk how it picks

sinful brook
#

I've gotten 2 fire before

jagged aspen
#

its definitely not 1 of each color per player though

worn bluff
#

i’ve def gotten 2 in a row but idk if i’ve gotten more than 2 total

jagged aspen
#

ye that definitely happens

#

i didnt quite pay attention to whether we got more than 2

worn bluff
#

and then shortly after people realized you actually take less i think

jagged aspen
#

well yea you see big tower you send tanks, easy logic

#

also do balls hit ppl inside or not?

finite plank
#

it does, but it does greatly reduced damage

#

i think

finite plank
# alpine plover how do you

maintain as much uptime as possible, if gauge job, up to you to guess what you can spend or not

for nin, all my mudras are going to be used for disengage and suiton for final, and bunshin, i just use bunshin on cd as usual

#

one time i disengaged too much that lead to a lot of throwing daggers, i did less damage than a whm and a warrior in a 2m/1m hold jail attempt

#

it did clear, jail, but it was until later that i noticed how atrocious my dps during jail was

jagged aspen
finite plank
#

you have no job at all besides hit ball or heal party if you're in jail

jolly flume
#

cross tether can make it annoying for the people outside I guess

#

unpredictable movement and dropping an extra aoe in the arena

#

parallel is so free idk why you'd ever want to cross them honestly

low hearth

Samurai players crossing tethers

yeah the idea is to leave that big ass 40% of the arena free

Samurai players when forced to decide between greeding one gcd during insane air or wiping the entire raid

quick verge
#

there's no greed during insane air btw

thin fox
#

insane air is a full uptime mechanic

#

its lowkirkenuinely harder to uptime insane air as caster than it is melee

terse zodiac
#

i never understand how you can be bad at greeding, nobody is enraging to 1 lost gcd, deaths lead to enrages

thin fox
#

because the spins make your casts get fucking interrupted

terse zodiac
#

the spins are toxic af

rain geode
#

I mean I had a 10:04 clear of m9s but I felt like there were bigger problems the a gcd or 2

terse zodiac
#

m9s close calls are definitely gonna be down to many deaths/damage downs

#

the check is really lenient

rain geode
#

We had 1 death and I think 0 damage downs I think my mates simply weren't pressing buttons

terse zodiac
#

well that too lol

rain geode
#

Expect my BLM they were kinda blasting and if the parse is to be believed so was i

#

Thinking about it if I didn't send pots we probably don't clear that pull it was tight

rain geode
#

But honestly they were the best group I had gotten so far so all is forgiven

golden jewel
#

got my ex2 clear in pf \o/
it was not without its challenges though lol

rain geode
#

I've gotten all my clears of everything in pf tho I'm starting to regret it for savage lmao

golden jewel
#

yas

true beacon
#

Which part was challenging…?

rain geode
#

Maybe I should have more faith in others but every ex I've done so far I've been like "yeah if you want to try anyone can clear" but I'm starting to have my doubts about that in savage

shy obsidian
#

Well to be fairrr, every extreme is daunting for a newer player

true beacon
#

True

#

But in the gear we have now he’s a wet noodle

golden jewel
#

tank kept not taking their tether, wiping us (happened at least twice)
and a Bard that had cleared before was being a dikdik about everything

shy obsidian
#

It’ll feel more like a normal raid the more ya do it lol

golden jewel
#

for some odd reason, tanks lost aggro during conga with half-full, and they would not stop typing during the fight to rage about it as well
that wss the only pull we hit enrage and wiped to it

#

still dont know why they lost aggro
we were all kinda laughing about it though except the bard

true beacon
#

Wow, those guys were dicks

golden jewel
#

it was a messy clear, but hey I got it and we did 2 more runs to clean up lol

#

im a little messy myself at the swords stuff and the partners part, was just confusing

sinful brook
#

how do you lose aggro

#

did they just stance off

#

or die

golden jewel
#

I dont even know 😭 stances were on

wicked delta
golden jewel
#

they were both alive

wicked delta
#

i would like to ask the same question

#

how do you lose aggro

#

with stance on.........

true beacon
#

On Zoraal Ja

golden jewel
#

I was really confused, they lost it during his little mine is the path phase right before turmoil then conga

My goal tonight is to get to the point where I can join enrage parties

true beacon

In the first warp phase?

boreal pumice
golden jewel
#

sorry I memorized some stuff by his voicelines lol

true beacon

Then they literally weren’t pressing buttons for like a good multiple seconds

drg still using gay bulge peak drg speak design

jolly flume

I basically know nothing about the phase besides the first replication and a general idea of idyllic

idyllic has a lot of choke checks

so with newer healers especially it was

yeah

jolly flume
#

well there's my all healers lol

#

one more to go

clear plume
#

chemist for next clear pog

clear plume
# jolly flume that rough?

we had our first low enrage like 2 days ago so i assume your group wont struggle as much and be able to kill on a healer lb3 angle type thing

#

But we got bard bow drop (bc game hates me playing jobs I enjoy) and drg spear so it should be free on reclears at least

craggy marsh
clear plume

Had as many pulls on p12-2 as it took for my fru prog

then you'll have done every healer

You free yet c

naw i just got to m12

spent over 100 fucking pulls at m11s enrage

Oof

Oh you’re pf?

rapid whale

ye

clear plume
#

I heard pf is really struggling in 12

#

Like worse than normal

rapid whale
#

can u explain this 1 to me

#

i have no clue wtf it means blobtower chain tower

clear plume
#

Chain tower is the towers beta drop when they break from an alpha

#

Blob towers are the ones that drop before he spins around you

#

Chain towers will always be opposite of where the exit was when they broke chain, always intercard for blob towers

rapid whale
#

ahh okay

#

i should prob watch a pov or osmething

finite plank

is it actually top looper

u know

i thoght since warrior doesnt get any changes

i didnt have to check if the opener ever updated

well

aparenty it did

what was the change

scarlet lintel

just pot timing i thnk

and apparently u use diff openers depending on thefight

im gonna swap to early ir opener for m12s since it ends weird

I have it down cold, dn strat is op

Yeah that’s the one I used

But I dragged the boss NW

So tether from boss was ez to grab

Is replication 1 the clones or starting mech

I believe the clones

trim frost

wtf is a lindschrat anyway

thin fox
#

ok i've seen arena split in m11 a few times now

#

this isnt toooooo bad

finite plank
#

i still sometimes to forget to count the tethers on my side that are going to swap or not

#

actually

#

tether players are the only one who needs to swap right?...

#

there's no way for all 4 tethers to be on one side right?

#

without deaths

proven pivot
#

Bruh I bought the wrong ore for the EW relic, can I exchange them for tomestones or something

wtf am i meant to do here

i died from tethers

boreal pumice
#

i like the homer sam

finite plank
#

avoid this, so, go more to your right of the screen shot and on the waymark

#

also, i do not see where the other meteor on the platform is coming in that pic

#

it's going to be up or down

#

this thing can be pretty forgetful

thin fox
#

oh I see what Im doing

#

Im standing on the right edge of the marker

#

I have the marker positions flipped

#

I need to be on the outer edges not the inner

#

what is this people are talking about wrt a cursed pattern

finite plank
thin fox
#

oh

#

wait

finite plank
thin fox
#

I think I know what's happening

#

ok idk then

#

these raidplans aren't explaining it properly

#

this at least says go inside corner of marker

finite plank
#

yeah, this should want you at inner at all times

thin fox
#

because I am doing what thjje strat tells me to and I am dying

finite plank
#

im gonna need more info on that tbh

#

it could be the guy with the proximity tether not in position and killed you

thin fox
#

ok so what Im hearing from elsewhere

#

is that I died to cursed pattern

#

which is when you're on the side with the split portals and the half of the platform where you can melee the boss is being cleaved

terse zodiac
#

kinda nonsense to call something a cursed pattern when its a 50/50 every time the mechanic happens lol

finite plank
#

i thought cursed pattern would be the pattern where you'd have less space to back up for proximity

thin fox
#

ok I get cursed pattern now

#

ppl in pf were giving a kind of confusing explanation

#

I get what to do now

trim frost
#

okay man 😭😭

finite plank
clear plume
#

I don’t think it would be possible to stretch them

#

Middle of opposite end isn’t stretched even so

thin fox
#

do you mean whether the tethers can spawn there?

#

I imagine you just have to body language for the people on the ohter side who is going over

finite plank
#

as in, would it pick one entire side to all have tethers which makes the side with no tethers incredibly confusing to swap

thin fox
#

Ive never seen it personally

finite plank
#

i hope that's an impossibility unless deaths occured

thin fox
#

I think its always 2 and 2?

clear plume
#

No, it always targets 2 from each platform and if one has to swap the opposite side has to swap one back

finite plank
#

ok, that should make it really simple as only tethered players will ever need to swap

clear plume
#

There isn’t 3-1 or 4-0 patterns where you need a prio for non roles to flex or anything

finite plank
#

i was worrying if there'd be a situation where a non tethered would need to swap which would things a lot harder without deaths

thin fox
#

oh yeah I wanted to ask something that I wasn't sure about with the fight

#

in meteor rain where tanks have to be in front for the first stack

#

do I need personals on that lol

dull drum
clear plume
#

My tanks used I think very minor mitigation on it but idr

#

I’m not a tank so

#

Press a short and see if it kills you or not

finite plank
#

i throw a feint for the first one sometimes, i see rep used there too

thin fox
#

I like having short for the actual busters

#

I might just throw rampart

#

since it lasts for 20s anyway

clear plume
#

But I think it just gives you a magic vuln and the busters are physical

thin fox
#

oh right I should just throw rep

clear plume
#

So it stops whoever is first 2 from being in future stacks

thin fox
#

because I cant rep the busters anyway

dull drum
#

@thin fox how much mit did you use for wall of fire

#

the one before first orbital

thin fox
#

1x invuln

dull drum
#

trying to make sure i have enough mit for the tethers

clear plume
#

People aren’t using invuln there on any non pld?

dull drum
#

oh you just invulned

#

ok

trim frost
#

is this not an obvious point

dull drum
thin fox
#

I invuln the double buster in snaking

dull drum
#

"idk why you're using so much effort to invuln snaking buster when you can just share with me"

trim frost
#

same

dull drum
#

most braindead statement ive read

#

yeah i invuln it too

thin fox
#

I usually invuln the deep impact in snaking too just cuz Im too lazy to hit mit LOL

dull drum
#

i mean where else would you really use it

#

i do it too

#

invuln + kbi

#

i chill

trim frost
dull drum
clear plume
#

Bro my offtank in 12 was complaining about how much mit he has to press during a 2m buster and he doesn’t use LD at all the fight

#

It was a real head scratcher

dull drum
#

see im confused because people didnt want to invuln in other content ive done too is it like

#

a cardinal sin

#

its literally part of my kit why would i not use it

#

lol

#

"oh what if you need to survive a mech fail" just dont fail then

clear plume
#

Bc I know I only parse on tanks normally but I think if I was gonna prog a fight I’d think of the funny hourglass button

#

Then the mech is already failed a tank invuln doesn’t raise a healer

dull drum
thin fox
#

Im so fucking bad at orbital man

#

I cant do this mechanic

#

I have to stay on tank so I can just eat the aoes

clear plume
#

It’s literally an alliance raid level mechanic

thin fox
#

alliance raids are too hard

#

have you ever done tower at paradigm's breach

#

red girl is harder than TOP p5

finite plank
#

i was told the 2nd set will always be in melee range

#

and it seems true

thin fox
#

when you say melee range

#

do you mean the intersection is melee range

finite plank
#

yes

#

it will be near the middle

#

unless you plan to move the boss

dull drum
#

i think i saw a yt video about this

thin fox
#

so I'm basically always aiming to dodge into the 2nd set

dull drum
#

no idea if accurate but i'll test today

#

comments seem pt happy though so ima assume it works

thin fox
#

and if the 1st set is also a melee range intersection

#

I can just dodge into 1st and win

jolly flume
finite plank
#

yeah

jolly flume
#

do this instead

dull drum
#

pt sure it was pinned in the comments no

jolly flume
#

same concept massively easier execution idk why you'd ever want to look at two intersections and go opposite and all that bullshit

dull drum
#

the updated version braindead

jolly flume
#

idk I haven't watched it since two days ago

#

shrug

#

but 212 dodge is practically impossible to fuck up just dodge through and back immediately

thin fox
#

ok yeah this seems simple

#

I might use sprint for it too. ik you don't need it but

#

ping

dull drum
#

😭

thin fox
#

kindred no buddies seems good for arena split

finite plank
#

might need it if dodging into 1

thin fox
#

I want it for safety because I'm playing with 180 ping

finite plank
#

eh, i did that with 153, should be fine

#

without shukuchi

daring pine
#

is it possible

finite plank
#

no

daring pine
#

what if i just hit her really fast

dull drum
#

its a 10 minute fight this is ragebait

dull drum
#

"erm actually its 9:50"

daring pine
thin fox
#

the fact that your fucking pot window is after orbital too

#

lthats jsut mean

dull drum
#

@thin fox at least we chill during the meteor rain part

#

just gotta pick up our tethers

thin fox
#

I have a q about those busters

#

theyre not cleaves right

dull drum
#

no

thin fox
#

like it doesnt matter if Im near people

#

as long as I have the tether

dull drum
#

i feel like it might be an spread aoe but

#

i havent sat on someone to test

thin fox
#

Im too scared to ICANT

dull drum
#

or a meteor

finite plank
#

plenty of space... no need to test it...

thin fox
#

its like learning that the knock up aoe can be stood on

#

for arena split

#

I dont think anyone knew that until it was time to do the race ICANT

finite plank
#

was a learning orbital party

craggy marsh
thin fox
#

invuln just rarely saves a run so

like idk if you hit the 1 in a million circumstance that a multihit stack goes on the tank when both healers die

Idyllic is the hands down coolest mech in this game

They made it actually the entire fight and wow it lives up to it

#

4 minute ass mechanic

jolly flume
#

why are they putting ultimate mechanics in my final floor 🥀

clear plume
#

I wish they put this mech in fru

thin fox
#

is idyllic dream also executionally tight or is it mostly just a memory check

#

like assuming you have 0 issue remembering shit is it still hard

clear plume
#

You need to be very sure of where you’re going bc you get very small margins of time for movement

thin fox
#

so not only do you have to remember all the spots but you have to haul ass too

clear plume
#

And it does do a lot of damage

thin fox
#

not the healer not my problem

clear plume
#

And the hardest mech for pf

jolly flume
#

would be funny if I got to idyllic and found out double shield is ass for it and now I get to reprog the entire fight on ast

clear plume
#

Dooms you need to esuna

thin fox

it rly is appropriate that metem during p2 is just like

wtf is going on bro

I cannot stress how long idyllic is

It starts at 4:40 and takes until 7:50
