i've never done it but it looks fun to recover a tank getting clipped by exas in FRU. you either have like 3 seconds to wall and rez, or do some weird stuff with aggro for towers

jolly flume
#

yeah it's definitely less of a one shottable phase than the rest but it's just so exhilarating to finally clear BECAUSE you weren't allowed to make any mistakes

#

do it right or go back 15 minutes

#

good luck

valid solar
#

Despairge I havent seen arena split even a single time yet

#

im losing it man

worn bluff
#

got to try m11 arena split for first time and i think i did the tether right PeepoHappy

stray forge
#

The dichotomy

jolly flume
#

I can't say there are no "undeserved" top clears because there certainly are damage wise but like

#

you can't eat three exaflares and get corpse dragged

valid solar
worn bluff
#

i got really confused because a portal shot horizontally into my face and i was like "wait i have to dodge horizontal ones too?" but it was just the tether on the other side didn't cross theirs

stray forge
#

People farm TOP? Why?

lavish mortar
#

Chat NVM I'm GOATED

#

TOMORROW WE CLEAR

#

AND IF WE DONT

#

then uh

#

the day after that, i suppose

it's just a fun fight though ngl

In one day?…

Bro wtf

Why are you acting like you’re going for world first

lavish mortar
#

lemme get the number for you

stray forge
#

That was last week 🥀

jolly flume
#

it's like rage queueing a competitive game

#

you feel

rain geode
#

I get it

#

Spite and anger are powerful tools

jolly flume
#

spite is the strongest motivator there is

stray forge
lavish mortar
#

Yeah I got like two sources of spite

jolly flume
#

wish I could say the same

lavish mortar
#

1 for this dumb dps check

stray forge
#

I simply get off the pc and read yuri and my heart fills with love again

jolly flume
#

ok that's kinda based

rain geode
#

Its the only reason Im still PFing M10S

lavish mortar
#

1 for this group that kicked me for having bad dps while 3/4 supports and another dps were grey parsing

Sometimes I like to pantomime the idea of love but there is nothing but hatred in my heart

stray forge
#

I’m sorry I just love posting this picture

lavish mortar
#

next savage tier

#

im subbing in off patch

#

so I can get insta +10 item level

jolly flume

there's a lot of love in my heart but all of it is reserved for things that are not final fantasy xiv randoms

clear plume

I really like it

rapid whale

nice

clear plume
#

It’s neat and cool

#

Not the hardest but it’s difficult enough to be fun

I feel like I have obtained forbidden knowledge from knowing Deep Blue and Red Hot’s second nickname

Twink-182

It’s better than “spread in your square AND Dont gapclose in too early!!!” From 4s

jolly flume

all the clone rewind mechs just feel really good to do

lavish mortar

anywhom, off to bed

jolly flume
#

blood mana is kind of a throwaway though

lavish mortar
#

gn all

jolly flume
#

but I'll forgive the fight for that

#

gn

lavish mortar
#

tomorrow I will be a proud m11s clearer

#

surely

clear plume
#

Blood mana is ok if the goal is to give a spot you can res people without it being like boss does an aoe!! Then a tankbuster!!! Then 5 auto attacks!!!!!

#

It’s active enough for a filler mech

#

Obviously 12-2 is all idyllic and everything before it but blood mana is teaching you it

#

(And first mech being a consistency check)

jolly flume
#

I feel like it could've used like one more instance of the alpha/beta debuff resolutions somewhere

clear plume
#

I’d like it if the dodges ever changed honestly

#

If the solve wasn’t the same it would be fine

tawdry delta
jolly flume
#

yeah I thought we just got funny xiv rng the first few times we got n/s safe

#

but nah its just always n/s

clear plume
#

I’d also like patterns where it’s out from both

#

And some that are EW cleaves (sometimes with out from both!!)

thin tartan
clear plume
#

Like that’s the real it’s a final floor what are we doing moment for me

thin tartan
#

thuis is the most entertaining

#

normal raid

#

ever

worn bluff
#

i want to understand the psychology of why people run around like wild for the 2nd set of baited circles in beginning of m11s

#

like first set everyone runs clockwise all neatly

thin tartan
#

forgot

clear plume
#

Bc if I know it’s spread I’m spreading early

worn bluff
#

and then 2nd set it's like they put AoEs everywhere

jolly flume
#

i'm ranged, good luck melees

worn bluff
#

well i mean the melees specifically

clear plume
#

If I know it’s stack I’m preparing to make space and just jp dodge the circles

worn bluff
#

they put the AoEs everywhere

clear plume
#

Idk you’re asking why melees don’t think about their positioning

#

Why does water fall from the sky sometimes we will never know

#

Ignoramibus

worn bluff
#

they already did it once just do it again madge

stray forge
#

But we do know why water falls from the sky

worn bluff
#

we will never know

jolly flume
#

shiranai

#

I have seen groups stack up the baited circles fwiw but

#

yeah seems kinda rare

#

if you end on scythe good luck

#

lol

worn bluff
#

i mean for now i'm just throwing a holy spirit so i can see prog point but

clear plume
worn bluff
#

feels like i'm in a roulette

#

also every other cotank i get goes to the wrong side in domination dance

rain geode
worn bluff
#

and i just adjust for them because i don't feel like explaining the raidplan

clear plume
thin fox
#

i feel like its insane not to

rapid whale
#

inx you won right

thin fox
#

no

jolly flume
#

I orient around whichever of the open and closed side I see first lol

pale blade
#

Hopefully I can clear Twink-182 tomorrow

thin fox
#

247 pulls pb 0.3%

thin fox

3 pulls below 1%

pale blade

I think I had to iron out the issues people are having

jolly flume
#

holy moly we reaching ultimate pull counts in this fight

worn bluff
clear plume
#

I’m gonna be doing pf runs of 10 tomorrow so I can practice bard cleave on there

worn bluff
#

i think some people get it flipped

thin fox
#

the relative north prio

#

i just mean i look for the open side

stray forge
#

I mean red hot is really more of a bear

thin fox
#

to find my spot

clear plume
#

Chiyo when u dropping I’ll let u whm and only call you 5 slurs

worn bluff
#

yeah same

#

i feel like some people are using the gap as relative north and going wrong side

thin fox
#

i go left from open if ot and right if mt

jolly flume
worn bluff
#

and i'm just like.. man i don't have the energy to explain this i'll just let you go wherever you want

thin fox
#

i was in a pf with zeeks and he kept fucking up the prio LOL

tawdry delta
#

is pf using AM for m12p2 yet

robust shoal
#

speaking of 11 spots

thin fox
#

i think people are just using macros for 12p2

robust shoal
#

shoutout to ecliptic stampede for randomly doing the reverse of snake prio for tank towers

thin fox
#

like echo macros

jolly flume
#

after doing idyllic a few more times post week 1 I don't really think it's a mech pf needs to visibly cheat at with am and whatnot

robust shoal

it's not like...that bad

clear plume
#

Chiyo u haven’t done pf idyllic

rapid whale
#

chiyo u havent done pf p1

#

jk im just salty

jolly flume
#

ok you're right I haven't but also like remembering stuff is getting easier for me without macros

#

so maybe they won't cheat

robust shoal
#

I want to do pf stuff within the next couple weeks but

#

man it sounds painful

#

also I suck at 10 ngl

rapid whale
#

i just push my buttons and pray

#

its all i can do

clear plume
#

Cats idk if u heard but I’m doing 10 runs in pf to practice sometime this week

tawdry delta
robust shoal
#

I'll come int on my alt Prayge

#

just gotta get through 9 first

robust shoal
jolly flume
#

if it's like friday or something I'll come along and press some buttons

stray forge
#

idk how do ppl find the will to level an alt

jolly flume
#

I have reclears tmrw though

stray forge
#

can barely level alt classes....

worn bluff
#

can rampart cover all 3 tethers in meteorain? seems a bit tight not sure

thin fox
robust shoal
#

I need to check over the LS timing though

worn bluff
thin fox
#

is the late LS to try have disesteem available from the point of deep blue 2m to duo appearance?

robust shoal
#

I think fray might do some funny stuff with that timing

tawdry delta
#

do you also need to dump both shadowbringer charges asap so you can cleave them at the 4 min mark before they jump to opposite sides of the arena for snaking

robust shoal
#

You want some delay on the second use though so you can disesteem both targets

thin fox
robust shoal
#

you just need to hit the one charge early to get it rolling

#

after that you're pretty much just hitting it when you can cleave

#

I still need to study opti on 10 a bit more though

amber fable
#

When do you even cleave...before snake and bubble

jolly flume
#

I should probably start pressing gravity in 10 lol

#

I didn't care enough to

tawdry delta
#

i suck at 10 as well

amber fable
#

The opportunity to cleave is lower on first half

tawdry delta
robust shoal
#

I got blues in 9/10 bc I died again

#

and grey in 12-2 bc I got assassinated

tawdry delta
#

also my 12 is kinda bad but its due to safety tbns that don't always break

jolly flume
#

I got a 46 in 10 because I died to debuff explosions in IA2

#

surely this week I'll get my free orange or whatever

rapid whale
robust shoal
#

last clone stacks 6 ppl went to the other side and I are 190k from two-man stack and died bc autos

jolly flume
#

pacman is funny but I don't care enough to do it

#

if my melee wants to run through for uptime i'll heal them

robust shoal
#

I need to live next week so I can historical 99 with tome weapon

clear plume
#

I think it’s probably not Friday bc I really want to play magic cards on my end

worn bluff
#

i thought i was cool with an orange in m10 but then it locked in and i guess i'm just average after all

jolly flume
#

oh yeah you play mtg

#

I gotta send you something my tank showed me

#

had me rolling

clear plume
#

Have skipped it for like a month

#

I had to stop in and buy graded Pokémon cards from the store just so I don’t lose favourite customer status

stray forge
#

They got u good

🥀

#

Subscription service tactics fr

trim frost
#

im trying to study opti for m10

clear plume
#

Listen, it has positives, like being able to know I can get an entire case of riftbound on release day no problem

#

The downside is without asking I’m put down to buy a case of riftbound on release day

trim frost
#

obviously hold burst until after add dies but outside of that i'm thonky

amber fable
#

Use ogcds asap

jolly flume
#

hit yo cleaves

amber fable
#

So it can line up

worn bluff
#

i haven't really sorted out much other than sending some oGCDs earlier in opener helps

amber fable
#

At ia1 start

low hearth
clear plume
#

The first gcd EA bard opener Despairge

worn bluff
#

keep the bros together

#

don't let them be apart

jolly flume
#

I think the latest you can send some stuff and still be able to cleave it in some windows is like 3rd gcd ish because my chainsaw is the last thing to go out before the bosses jump for snaking

trim frost
#

should i hold both shbs/dis at 2m for when both targetable at 2:30

low hearth
#

u can use salted first gcd

amber fable
trim frost
#

im not holding burst

#

im just holding my cleave stuff

clear plume
#

I’m p sure eventually people will do 2:30 reopener and it’ll line up naturally with end of bubble anyways

low hearth
#

u can use the salted aoe thing on both bosses right before insane air

trim frost
#

bc cleave dmg > burst dmg

robust shoal
trim frost
#

unless my cotank is annoying and pulls red hot southeast asap for some fucking reason like that one time

clear plume
#

What percent is the cleave? If it’s above 30% it’s gonna be hard for buffs to overcome that as a tank

#

If it’s 50% falloff cleave is just always better

amber fable
#

Salt is 25

#

Shb is...idk man

stray forge
#

How does rdps account for crit from dancer buff etc

jolly flume
#

even if the buffs are better you're not parsing adps xdd

amber fable
#

I forgot

clear plume
#

But with whm sge being just more damage I think it’s just hold for cleave anyways

trim frost
#

salt/shb/dis are all 25% falloff i think

clear plume
#

Why tf else do I have a drg over a monk

jolly flume
stray forge
#

Oh ok

clear plume
#

There is a doc if u want the math

#

But it’s beyond most people

trim frost
#

so total pot is like
875 s&d
1050 shb
1750 dis?

clear plume
#

If it’s 25% falloff then yeah, cleave is just more important

robust shoal
#

yeh it's 25% falloff on all of them

#

low falloff bc there's no rly any other cleave you get on drk

#

kinda wish shb was higher potency just to make that sort of opti more important

clear plume
#

Back in my day unleash was the strongest aoe at low levels

robust shoal
#

back in my day unleash was a gain on like 7 targets or sth

jolly flume
#

hold my wing muse

torn mesa
#

do I Ogi out of buffs in M10S at the 2M Hmm

jolly flume
clear plume
#

Realistically

#

Try just using buffs at 2:30

#

It lines up to middle/end of snaking and end of bubble when bosses are back basically

jolly flume
#

that pushes back the buffs at the start of snaking to

torn mesa
#

then you lose 4M cleave

jolly flume
#

yeah

torn mesa
#

SAM has a 30s carryover

clear plume
#

Both bosses are middle for most of that part of snaking but yeah

torn mesa
#

so they can get away with it

clear plume
#

I haven’t fully checked when blue disappears

#

And how it effects things

jolly flume
#

I mean it would be during the end of the wave and fire spreads I think

#

if you delay 30s

clear plume
#

But at worst hitting just red post towers is the same as 2:00 window

jolly flume
#

that seems alright you have a few gcds of them being together

torn mesa
#

well you have to resolve fire spreads and water proteans

#

and then takes a bit for bosses to be stacked again

clear plume
#

I’ll check timeline in a few minutes here

torn mesa
#

before deep varial splits again

clear plume
#

With replay

torn mesa
#

Chiyo

#

I think with any other comp

#

that's not the 1 we had

clear plume
#

Real talk tho whm fucks in 10 damage wise

torn mesa
#

I always hold Ogi for the cleaves

clear plume
#

Like it’s not an ast fight

#

Misery stonks are real I fear

torn mesa
#

the timing is kind of tight too

clear plume
#

And whm multidotting is really strong

torn mesa
#

I have about a 3s window where it's not too early for the 2M window and not too late for the 4M window

clear plume
#

My tome weapon whm hit for 410k with misery

#

AST is COPIUM

torn mesa
#

Vamp Stomp might be the first mechanic

#

where the melee is on the sweat side and healer on payphone side

#

of that meme

clear plume
#

Idk do u do centre pop?

stray forge
#

Spoiler is that both are on the pay phone side

torn mesa
#

we do tanks invuln and go in right away

tawdry delta
#

same

torn mesa
#

and melees chill max melee on bats

clear plume
#

Invuln isn’t back up for second set no?

torn mesa
#

but that doesn't work for 2nd set obviously

#

ye

worn bluff
#

my first arena split Gladge

jolly flume
#

tell dank to lightning shot and take his spot

torn mesa
#

I mean, with invuln up, it's full uptime for everyone

clear plume
#

Have M1 (or whichever has less options) instantly break middle, then go to t1, t1 pops when the vuln falls off with t2, have a single melee use a ranged option or they can squeeze left right of back of boss if they want and you have room

#

My group did some fun runs and practiced it

torn mesa
#

the only melees that have options

#

are VPR and NIN

clear plume
#

Full uptime with that movement

#

I think drg used to piercing talon but yeah

#

This clip gnb ate a bat DD but had room to not

#

Gnb in general played this pull king of bad looking at it

#

But yeah the idea is for sure able to work

#

Even waiting max melee of the bats and going in after they explode bc they have set positions is for sure a thing that can be done

#

Can probably do all 4 north of boss

worn bluff
#

hector has something in his guide about it but i don't think i trust PF to do it

stray forge
#

All melee just goes in at the same time

#

But I guess it means like 2 seconds of lost uptime

worn bluff
#

rotate in pairs to safe spot and then pop 2 seconds apart from your partner

clear plume
#

I know drg apparently doesn’t lose anything in opener using EPT tho bc of how dot timing works out with the saw phase

#

So I think they want a reason to use that anyways

#

To delay chaos thrust to first gcd of that instead of on boss

torn mesa
#

but 1st you just invuln

jolly flume
#

well in that case you could just hold invuln for the second one

torn mesa
#

you can't invuln 3rd then

#

so it defeats the point

jolly flume
#

I forgot there's even 3 ngl

#

I just sit at the wall and press 1

torn mesa
#

realistic answer is just 1 melee has to take a GCD of downtime for 2nd I think

clear plume
#

Yeah it’s hard to have a comp with zero options for it really

valid solar
#

melees will troll the party for uptime and still do less damage than the pranged

clear plume
#

Well yeah do u know how hard I pad apex on those mf adds

#

Don’t check my logs damage to boss compared to total damage

valid solar
#

pf tanks and melee in m10 are cooked man

#

why do they keep killing each other

torn mesa
#

where are they killing each other

#

in 10

#

9 during vamp stomp I get it

#

but 10 lol

amber fable
#

They kissed and clipped each other

#

On proteans

valid solar
#

anywhere there is a spread

jolly flume
#

the devious and intimidating surfboard pointing up

valid solar
#

oh yeah melee greeding the tb happens too

#

thats always funny to see

amber fable
#

M10 dps check is lax tbf

torn mesa
#

don't worry uptime snaking and pac man arena split coming soon

#

minimal melee downtime at that point

valid solar
#

whats uptime snaking ?

#

ive seen pac man arena

jolly flume
#

I still like the idea more where you send all melees to one side and if you lose the 50/50 like 7 minutes deep into the fight you wall it

torn mesa
#

same as regular snaking but modified jump positions to not be in narnia

#

Chiyo that dot doesn't do that much

jolly flume
#

no I know

torn mesa
#

I can almost full heal it myself

valid solar
#

I still dont get why they send tank and melee to the far spot and healer/ranged to the close spot

#

shouldnt it be the other way around so less movement

worn bluff
amber fable
#

Because pf is dumb

#

Why use brain

worn bluff
#

oh i thought you meant split

amber fable
#

Do what rp says

jolly flume
#

I just don't care enough to do that strat, if you wanna walk through and eat the dot I'll just throw you something no harm no foul

clear plume
#

Tank doesnt want to be the last to be outside bc boss won’t position right if you do

jolly flume
#

I don't think I have a lightspeed charge for that anyway lol

worn bluff
#

i'm guessing they just wanted healer/caster to have less movement

amber fable
#

Idk man

torn mesa
#

honestly the worst part

valid solar
worn bluff
#

i think healer should bait first though

valid solar
#

its cooked Despairge

amber fable
#

The boss fucks off to side

torn mesa
#

is the fact I can't gap close

#

during arena split

amber fable
#

And now nobody is baiting cleave

torn mesa
#

without taking a burn

clear plume
#

Issue with one melee runs though arena split is the uh

torn mesa
#

that's so dumb

amber fable
#

Or baiting it on fire

clear plume
#

Pair markers if they target dps

#

They’re cooked cooked

jolly flume
#

don't those do like

#

200k

torn mesa
#

less

#

lol

#

they do hilariously little damage

#

like 150k

clear plume
#

Solo with a bleed went bad in testing for cerp

worn bluff
clear plume
#

Even monk with RoE didn’t appreciate it

torn mesa
#

tanks can just give short CD right

jolly flume
#

I have 20% and 400p of shields I can throw at you for fun

clear plume
#

We had HoC oblation TBN and RoE and the monk would die if not instantly topped up before and after it bc bleed was like 60k ticks still so taking 100k isn’t great math wise

torn mesa
#

ok Chiyo

clear plume
#

Possible though, but it gets into full babysitting territory

torn mesa
#

I gap close tomorrow

#

if we get water far

clear plume
#

Just don’t get the bleed cheat the ticks

jolly flume

I have an essential dignity shaped pacifier for my widdle baby melees

it's ok

Should I play melee then

#

i fucking hate how the vamp stomp aoes are smaller than the visual

#

90% of the time in the mechanic it looks like i'm getting venn diagrammed

#

becauyse the visual is like so much larger than the actual aoe

#

oh let me pull out a clip of "how tf did i dodge that"

torn mesa
#

Am I cooked if I am considering using ranged attack on surfboard

#

if my GCD roll is terrible timing wise

clear plume
#

Ik other samurais have backstepped into enpi while they’re moving bc of cancelled gcds if they don’t

thin fox
worn bluff
#

using a ranged attack gives you an instant 0 parse

torn mesa
#

I don't have any cast issues there

#

it's just melee GCDs can't hit boss when they move

jolly flume
#

it was happening to me even on fucking mch today when I had to position awkwardly bc of bad fire placements

worn bluff
#

the clip is so weird during that

jolly flume
#

it's so infuriating

worn bluff
#

why not just leave them targetable

torn mesa
#

they are targetable

clear plume
#

The moving positions just breaks the rule of “target must be in front of you”

torn mesa
#

as ranged, you might still make it work

clear plume
#

Fru p3 opener does it to mch too, you have to start phase behind Gaia or you lose a gcd to her fucking middle

#

As ranged you just go where they’re going to and it’s fine yeah

torn mesa
#

as melee, it's a what do I do but roll GCD angle

clear plume
#

I think healers need further out but prange at least they’re within sight cone

thin fox
#

insane air isnt too bad since the movement is all predictable

jolly flume
#

only time I've ever gotten to use that tech

clear plume
#

I have had a team intentionally pull the boss to force it on mch

rapid whale
#

thoughts on fire tank voking water boss while they are casting shared tb before tidal wave

clear plume
rapid whale
#

since you can get a few gcd of cleave during 2s

#

its only like 3-4 but still

clear plume
#

Yumiya wanted to see it done as cursed tech they could bring up if mch ever becomes meta

To completely grief melees for

tbn gave you a bloodspiller so with known length uptime phases you could do a certain # of tbn to finish on a complete souleater combo

#

I need a time machine back to stormblood so I can see what all the fuss was about

#

curse of 6.4 baby

clear plume
#

People were complaining about jobs being babyfied versions of hw

jolly flume
#

yknow what

#

that sounds about right

clear plume
#

Stormblood got rid of most maintained gcd buffs/debuff options from variant combos

#

So instead of warrior having 3 combo finishers and 2 different combos entirely

#

And people didn’t like that

torn kindle
#

Also a lot of standalone DoTs/buffs got axed

clear plume
#

Yeah, which had a lot of “use this unless it costs you a combo”

#

It also reduced the potency of most combo actions used outside of a combo

#

So ninja wouldnt AE at the end of a phase anymore

#

With no combo

torn kindle
#

And some combo skills pre-SB flat-out didn’t buff or apply their debuff if you didn’t hit the required positional

#

Which meant redoing the combo

pale blade
#

I can acknowledge that the game has problems myself and that people can too

#

but identifying them is not their strong suit

jolly flume
#

I feel like I would've liked old healers

pale blade

Do we count “draw balance and don’t draw not balance” as galaxy brain?

jolly flume
#

endwalker ast was pretty fun to me

#

besides the whole one charge of lightspeed thing

robust shoal
#

trick attack had to hit positional to do the debuff

#

and you couldn't true north every one

rapid whale
#

o right you broke combo if you missed a positional

#

i remember hearing abt that

clear plume
#

Like I think sb ast was better than hw 100% bc earthly star was a game changer

#

But god do I miss her (enhanced balance 30% single target buff for 20 seconds)

jolly flume
#

I gotta wonder what they're gonna do with the jobs next expansion

#

I have this sinking feeling that scholar is getting reworked

tawdry delta
#

I honestly prefer easier door bosses like p4p1 and m12p1 instead of body check fiestas

#

With more difficult p2s

clear plume
#

Honestly I think the “job rework” will be very low scale compared to people’s expectations

#

Maybe rpr and mch get touch ups to their gauge and that’s about all I’m expecting

tawdry delta
jolly flume
#

yeah I don't think the changes will be nearly as sweeping as people like to think they will be but I also 100% see some jobs on the chopping block for "jank"

rapid whale
#

Every job becomes smn

jolly flume
#

like I predicted a gunbreaker rework for 8.0 and I was right it just happened early lol

rapid whale
#

Perfectly looping rotations

tawdry delta
#

But SE will probably make 8.05 savage lhw level or even lower due to fear of friction from the job updates

clear plume
#

Chiyo if having jank required a rework sch would be in a grave a decade ago

rapid whale
#

Nah I think they said never again for lhw level of easy no

jolly flume
#

gunbreaker JUST got shot for the sin of being able to overcap

#

see you never dissipation

clear plume
#

Gunbreaker got shot for the sin of downtime making it unviable to most players basically

#

With an ulti coming up

rain geode
#

Got shot might be a bit of an overstatement

daring pine
#

dude chiyo

clear plume
#

And it being the only 2m tank job not named drk meant it almost became powerful so that needed to be stopped

rapid whale
#

The gear from this tier will be bis in ultimate until like 8.5 right

daring pine
#

i started on the DAY 6.55 dropped

clear plume
#

Only drk gets 2m cds

clear plume
#

Oh god they’re gonna kill drk

tawdry delta
#

Unless if they release relic early (like before the ulti)

rapid whale
#

Doomerbread

tawdry delta
#

But final relic will be better than m12s weapon once it releases

clear plume
#

Listen the gnb change to lionheart only makes sense if the idea is to make tank jobs 1m and not 2m based at all

rapid whale
#

But will it be better than the ultimate weapon itself I wonder

tawdry delta
#

Oh you meant long term

#

Relic will be better

#

Than m12s

rapid whale
#

The extra stat from relic will be worth more than 3 material?

clear plume
#

Im expecting a 680-685 relic realistically

pale blade
#

hwat

clear plume
#

This tiers relics so far are 2 fully capped stats plus having 2 materia so

#

Expacks*

pale blade
#

I expect relics to be 775 for this cycle

#

then finally 795 in the next

#

customizable substats a given too

#

I really want Bozja-style custom substats

#

I think it’s no secret that Manderville relics are disliked universally but I also did because you couldn’t tune substats down to the single digits

rapid whale
#

If they go with 5 sub stat again wouldn't it make a lot of jobs really wonky because of sks sps

pale blade
#

Niche micro-optimization is fun, trust me

rapid whale
#

X to doubt

pale blade
#

no

rain geode
#

They are in a weird spot with job design where very few of the jobs really have anything you can actually add to their kits

pale blade
#

I mean

#

it would give me plenty of reason to toss out both Shadowbringers and Endwalker relics for Ultimates

rain geode
# jolly flume see you never dissipation

I decided to go check my TEA static

I got burned out before I could clear DSR but I thought I'd check to compare

45% when flatliner is cast

20%-18% when ecliptic stampede is cast

maybe it's 232k dps?

232k dps

alpine plover
#

ok we are at about 220k dps but without a pranged (we took a rdm for prog) and none of us is potting , and at flatliner at this config we are at about 48% (with 2 DDs too)

so i think we'll be good when we go for the clear dps wise

amber fable

Pots and no dds

#

And you clear

Or maybe you eat it and still clear

2dds and 48% is high considering it's not as bad as a death

Assuming everyone is on a pure essence, you just rely on your cure 4 casters to heal

wicked delta

Healers in DRS are rez bots

#

Well

molten moon

Cure 4 is broken since the stat squish

Yeah thats your only responsibility

Healers responsibility in DRS is mainly to apply spellforge/steelsting, reflect/dispel shit and arise corpses

in the prep they say have deep essence so hopefully aint slacking not like you have anything nice to spend clusters on after they put all the fucking loot in oc

Why do people hide their logs

#

It makes it feel sketchy to let them in my parties especially when they’re 20% hp below the prog point

wicked delta
#

So they feel shame

#

Hide it until it looks good

scarlet lintel
#

That’s the impression I get every time

#

Hiding logs doesn’t scream confident player

rapid whale
#

I don't trust hidden logs but I don't kick over them

wicked delta
#

Sometimes its also bc they got harassed due to their logs for whatever

#

So they hide them

rapid whale
#

It just increases my pessimism by like 10%

scarlet lintel
#

lol

wicked delta
#

That’s the two main reasons ive seen

scarlet lintel
#

What sort of harassment arises from logs

wicked delta
#

I remember one person talked on twitter about wanting to do high end content like ultimates

#

Someone decided to search their character’s name in fflogs

#

And posted their normal mode parses

#

Then was like

#

“You’re already this terrible in baby content I dont know why you would even try”

#

It was some sad shit to witness tbh

manic nimbus
#

Does AAC usually take a bit on PF

Idk

#

manic nimbus
#

Oh now it popped

scarlet lintel
#

Even some gray parses for high end I think is fine. A clear is a clear and sometimes ur unlucky. I just think it’s a problem if it’s consistent gray

wicked delta
#

Its like

#

Even if they’re bad now

#

They can always improve

#

Idk what telling someone “dont even try” accomplishes

scarlet lintel
#

Fr

kind elm
manic nimbus
#

i meant duty finder

wicked delta
#

Everyone’s basically done the older ones so thats why its harder to find ppl

kind elm
#

its like barely noon for NA ppl are at work

remote gate
#

if youre in NA then its probably cuz its early - mid day and ppl are at work/school

wicked delta
#

Also that

remote gate
#

maybe try again at around <t:1768510800:t>

#

thats when ppl start logging in

manic nimbus
#

ah its that kind of thing

loud nymph
#

I mean yeah

#

people don't generally play FFXIV when they're at work or school

#

and people are generally at work or school in the middle of the day

worn bluff
#

not saying the number doesn't matter, but if you're used to other types of video games, this concept of logs can be weird

remote gate
#

would you rather have a raider with grey/green logs or a raider with hidden logs

loud nymph
#

grey/green

wicked delta
#

Grey green

remote gate
#

cuz grey/green you know they can at least do the fight?

boreal pumice
#

hiding is to sus

loud nymph
#

hidden logs = someone who's so parse obsessed that they are embarrassed about their logs AND is so bad that they are not actually improving

wicked delta
#

Hidden logs can be literally anything

mossy eagle
#

I'd take a grey over a hidden logs personally

#

Ideally neither but beggers can't be choosers

manic nimbus
#

How do you get totems

mossy eagle
#

Clearing extreme or ultimate fights

#

Depending on what totems you want

#

What are you trying to obtain?

manic nimbus
#

I was just looking at the miscellany shop and was curious

#

probably necron or doomtrain totem

zealous meteor
#

you do necron/doomtrain ex

#

2 totems per clear (for those two fights at least, sometimes it's 1 totem per clear), 10 totems for a weapon or 99 for a mount

manic nimbus
#

are those limited weekly

zealous meteor
#

both weapons and mount can drop directly, but you have to roll on them, the totems are a pity system

#

they are not limited

remote gate
#

you can still find doomtrain party finders grinding doom train for totems and weapons

zealous meteor
#

extremes are unlimited from release, raids get their restrictions lifted later
(normal/alliance raids: next major patch, ultimate raids: next major patch (afaik), savage raids: near the end of the next major patch)

manic nimbus
#

i was more like oh can i view this and its not able to be unlocked yet or i can unlock it cause i can see it

zealous meteor
#

you need to finish the current msq for doomtrain/necron

manic nimbus
#

im looking at stuff i can get since i finished msq yesterday

zealous meteor
#

as they're the patch 7.4 and 7.3 extremes and based on msq trials

manic nimbus
#

Yeah

#

i finished msq yesterday

zealous meteor
#

the raids only require finishing 7.0

#

yeah then talk to the wandering minstrel in tuliyollal

#

he'll unlock them for you

manic nimbus
#

Oh

#

Thanks

#

when m11s PF says "outer markers" it means stand on the outside edge right?

not "the markers are further out"
