I have noticed when my cohealer is better the game suddenly becomes like a lot easier
like, barring meeting the bare minimum
i think when a support is over performing, it raises the overall floor higher than when a dps over performs
so no cases of "fails mechanics" etc
cuz thats role agnostic anyone fucks up shit yeah wipes
maybe you just wanna play with those people, or you dont wanna spend time filling PFs
yes you are
But I have a good friend whos in a static
And my bf who recently joined that static
They’re like
Objectively better players than most of the folks in that static
And the static is pretty slow with prog as well
But they’re there to have fun
They don’t care about clearing as much
and see if you can coordinate parties together

good advice tho the times Ive done it its sadly just fallen apart
This is how I got my m10s clear lol
yea healer duos r rly common because of this in PF
erm..
Befriended a rdm with bis who summoned their avengers to clear for me
do it for the content val
I befriended a sch back during cruiser
They were like
“You’re the first non braindead whm ive played with”
I said “that’s pretty sad” in response

Honestly the WHM have on average been better then the AST for me
i've heard opposite reports
But honestly ive had worse experiences with astros this tier so far lol
define better
but im the ast my friends compare whms to so uh
none of the things bapple listed means they can actually clear
have a higher likely hood of being able to clear faster and have an easier time generally with reclears
We literally cleared m9 the other day
isnt whm actually insane rn
val im sorry u had to find out this way....
whm is ok
like legitimately a good choice over astro if in PF
raiding with your friends, raiding at consistent times, and not waiting for a fill =/= clear faster
They’re saying you’re BAD
Its pretty bis for PF honestly
whm is probably more consistent in pf
but i progged on astro
so im sticking with it
But id still take an ast in a static
yeah fair
astro is better if you have a reliable raise caster to help with mp econ
if you have 7 ppl who all have a set schedule to raid but 1 of them cannot figure out how to do 1 mechanic then you are not clearing faster
If I knew how to play mch id play that over dnc lol
never forget (m11s btw)
How is being able to play more not clearing faster 💀
guh
that only really applies if you do more hours than you'd do in pf
ok so if you're talking about "playing more" now then pf is faster because you can raid every single day for as many hours as you'd like
how many hours do you do in pf
these are the healers saying the dps check is too tight
sure I dont have to wait for a PF to fill, but we also only raid 6 hours a week, so overall it'd take more weeks to clear than if I PF'ed every day for like 6 hours
my friend who does pf only is farther in the tier than i am, and i'm in a static
because she raids multiple hours a day
and my static raids 3 days a week
so she's farther
also
so therefore by your logic pf is better
im legitimately confused at this mental block
ur worst player decides your prog pace in static
you can kick your worst player in pf
also raiding with your friends is almost guaranteed to make you clear slower unless all your friends are cracked at the game
i would prefer raiding with strangers over my friends
In 2026
I just think its easier to identify core problems in a static
yea it is ur bad kitten
friend static can definitely be a trap if youre unlucky
I raided with friends and it was fun but I would also not do that shit again
if you raid with friends
I avoided that issue by befriending them after joining the static ig
my bad.
mb.
u can just say u hate me
i'm talking about friend statics bestie..
I only have opps
Like I played with a friend in M6S who was allergic to pressing mits on fucking shield heal
no friends
I almost said some very Unfriendly things
thats not what u said

i had a """"friend"""" who wanted to play drg and one of our members who never played dnc before was doing more dmg on dnc than them
mb..
which one
oh
I had a friend crash out about a scholar with 80% uptime during clear attempts
they press ED literally as much as they can and still only somehow manage to muster 90% uptime when they "parse" in reclears
some people are
interesting
I never said there werent bad statics I dont know why your trying to act like that was my point
nobody said that
your point that "the average static is better than the average pf" is wrong
period
thats the point
my first static was for uwu with someone that failed to dodge feather rains 600 pulls in
💀
dont ask why I didnt leave that 500 pulls earlier
My first static experience was p good
Wasnt a formal static
More just friends playing together n shit
Then I got invited to a static
And like
Im not gonna pretend to be the greatest of all time
But I saw it took them like
Is The Tyrant your opp
Is there a way to check how many statics have cleared the raid tier vs how many in PF?
probably nothing thats reliable
like fflogs lets you create formal statics, but that relies on people actually using that, instead of just uploading it to their personal profile
Oh my fucking god lmfao

YOU'RE A BIGGER OPP THAN TYRANT EVER WILL BE

bro griefs his coheal just to get shit uptime anyway
I had a sage like that
Griefed me in M5S
Parsing a straight 0 on heal parse during reclears is some cursed shit man
Like im literally sweating for my life cus whm had basically no mit back then aside from wings and this guy didn’t wanna shield
Healer parse junkies are the actual worst
Motherfucker play regen if you don’t wanna shield LMAOOOO
I play regen cus I don’t wanna shield that much either 
you parse high because you grief your coheal, I parse high because I'm good at the game
we're not the same
ppl dont realize that you can safety game and still get good dmg if ur fundamentals are good
just roll your goddamn gcd 
yeah it's a noob trap ppl get into thinking, "you either do good damage or do mechanics consistently"
like no you do both

Tho, I'm probably never going to pink on ast unless I luck into a pf with people who pump
My main group runs mch blm and that kind of griefs my 2min card 😔
gg
dont forget you have a mit now
week 5, 773, no pots, still 53 and >20k rdps in tyrant
whm this tier legitimately good
But id basically be going in with full crafted so 
ya it's insane
for pf
as long as u dont get 1 shot tobi
are you meant to thin air glares or like medicas if you plan around using one
idk enough about whm
do you min pie
Popping shields on myself on cd
ye
i think ur griefing if u run min pie fast ast this tier tbh
Usually yes
I like to save 1 during prog just for swiftcast raises
in the context of pf
so much shit goes wrong
But the other stack absolutely should go to medicas or cure 3
Ik people use swift for dmg sometimes but in pf im always scared to use that shit lmao
tell Mfs not to die 
sch has very slightly better mp econ
atm
I dont swift for dmg*
unless its such a concievably easy mechanic that i expect people not to die in
err
i just clip my gcd during orbital because I know some mf is going to get nuked and its my job to get their ass of the ground
I should get more comfortable swifting for damage but I sorta just always assume someones gonna die in PF
unless you're in clean enrage territory
using swift for damage is gonna guarantee that someone will die in the next 10s

Ruin 2 has been nice a nice button to have I dont hit it that often but man love that button
Bard standing in the tankbuster after idyllic dream 

yeah I agree
I played 2.31 sch last tier for w1 and I was miserable
yeaah
I played 2.4 with piety earring this tier
it like
is kind of insane to me that balance recs 2.31 min pie at the top of the list
you lose way more damage just coping going oom than you do playing slower with piety
they should in all caps
recommend people have 1-2 piety pieces minimum for general play
people die
sometimes your coheal is bad
you need some leeway to compensate for that
I like 2.4 but for kinda weird reasons
It lets me treat my GCD like a 4 tick weapon from runescape
I'm still running raid bracelet+raid ring just bc it gives me a bit more leeway if shit goes south when I help my friends in pf or reclear with my group
(and my static had no jobs that needed it)
If it works for you
I also just try and play jobs its nice on anyway so it works out
I think the only reason you ever consider max dmg bis for prog or general play is if you have a really good rdm (or two) you can trust to pick up raises instantly
and that only really exists in good w1 statics
prunescape
Nah hear me out Ill just win boots next week and have bis and it wont matter
or Glaze I just need one or the other and Ill have every piece I need for bis from M10S
and I hate reclears enough I dont think Im gonna bother gearing another job
for my own sanity lel
aint no fuckin way
congrats
frankly even with an rdm
our group doesn't stick rdm all the way thru prog
so like
we'll have to take raises eventually + I would very much like the breathing room mp wise to overheal while also raising
fair
yea
esp since fucked pulls are the ones where you gotta heal the most anyway
I mean Im gonna be running at least one because I dont want to go double tome rings lel
Im at least sold on it then again I only conisder my level of play "adequate"
i forgot i had a stream up while watching a M12S POV. stream was doing M9S saying "ah we have like 8 deaths" but M12S video had them easily killing before enrage and i was so confused

I
had a 2% enrage on m12p2 with 8 deaths and a bunch of dds today
You can probably clear with that many deaths
yea i had a kill w/ 7 deaths before
healer lb as well
uptime dn op
like 6 gcd gain during 2mins kinda big deal
I have a clear like 2 weeks ago with 5 deaths
Easily doable with 8 now
Yeah if people can push buttons and have a mild amount of gear then the "super tight dps checks" suddenly vanish
But PF is very good at gaslighting you into thinking that they are difficult
Pushing the right buttons is very difficult for people
what % should it be at for idyllic cast to be killable?
i guess i could look at a w1 POV
wait 50% is killable? aint no way
we hit 50% with not even doing superchain properly in rep 2 prog
Do realize
Idyllic is half the fight
Idyllic happens after your 4min raidbuffs
And enrage is 9 min and some change
yeah i know we’d have to do the hard part of the fight but at least there’s some leeway. i assume there was a decent amount of lost uptime in rep 2 and superchain
You don't actually lose much uptime during idyllic
So you should be on track
If everyone's just studied
we were 48% on idyllic cast in w1 and uh
we didn't double lb
plus our damage was like insanely sketch
50 should be pretty free
when I say sketch I do mean sketch
hnelp
tyfhold
I finally logged in :^)
gg they just hate you
Looks small from the stitching
yan
yeah just mean moreso that we were 50% with people running around like headless chickens for part of it
background pot to scale
ughhh we had such a clean reclear going and then some fucking idiot fucked up aetherletting
classic
only way i can think of is they arent watching the actual bats
I got necklace
neck is the only piece i need 💔
I have every piece I need from m9s
ok cant be mad about that
party deaths are so annoying
why did the rdm die during aetherletting 💔 is bro stupid
Meow
gonna get my last tome piece tonight after work then jump into m10
I'm hopefully waking up early enough to get an early clear of m10s which will hopefully give me one drop I need and then I'll have all of bis I need for m9s and m10s
Dropping puddles in the wrong spot
why is there a aetherletting puddle in the middle of the arena bro 😭
bro
Drake, where's the safe spot?
Ok Vamp Stomp is actually hard ngl
shoutout to akuma's clear where the animation dropped the puddle in dead center of arena (i gapclosed too early) but it snapshot outside so it was fine (completely planned and intentional im just that good)
high ping gaming
smiles in prange
Vamp stamp
bro somebody cleared too many people in m9s 😭
til: outer has two variations in pf for m11s
kindred and hector have different starting towers for r1 and h1
caused a wipe on my first pull and then it was just ultimate weapons over and over
"are we doing normal outer?" "yeah it's normal outer" "you go north" mfw i check
mb
wdym two northern
like this shit was not this hard the past 5 weeks
i would simply use eyes
when i'm ot i'm always positioned to get knocked se regardless of what markers it is i just do the mechanic lol lmao
i normally dont want to correct because then we're both correcting :x
i claim my spot with body language
we love you valcors
Its body language only for that
yea u just body language
congrats on the baby
ranged can just prepos it's whatever like who cares
🫃
ive been sending my friends mpreg emoji in venmo payments
i dont understand the variation
LOL
different prescribed starting towers
but like
Overcomplicating mech
does it really matter??
oh
For no reason
No
if you're already doing no buddies it's pointless to think about "assigned towers"
princess valcors i have a question regarding rdps
And adjust
hi
people dying fucks my rdps right
yea
what job are u marce
brd
cooked
im new
slurs
Most of brd damage is still personal fwiw
people are just in generally less locked in on reclears
i grief m12 p1 usually
a few pulls

I mean m9/10 is like...easy anyway
yea but ur tithus so u cant do anything wrong
So brain takes it too lax
the kitty
or my melee griefs the first m10s mechanic due to greed

it's noble's law in action bro
as pf gets more and more gear, somehow the fights get harder and harder
Just hard cast
i think its possible to get purple with wk1 level gear just unlikely
dying at 4 minutes is hilarious
Not on dps tank
my wk1 parse is still a 79
it can be
everyone is zombying through at this point
braaaaains
so probably half the green clears are 70% uptime or smth
bro shit dies too fast
i had a drg die to aetherletting last week too
I got 9 with 96% uptime and death on m9
just kill immediately after a 2m
duh
/j
fr
wheres my sandbag
I doubt it would be purple without death
actually taking that into account
a 8:30 or 10:30 kt would be prefererred over a 9:30 one right
mid pull but reading this makes me feel better that I wasnt theone who fucked up then, even tho i had like 2 people arguing
because it's right after 2s
for parse you wanna kill immediately as buffs end yea
tl;dr i appeared first, got the bullshit that"you went wrong tower too"
Even min >> odd min

nice to see you this week, unenhanced warrior
We should have a betting pool for how many slurs people in this channel say on average in a month
I don’t even remember that fight anymore
It’s great
yeah no buddies just turns it into a personal responsibility mechanic there's really no reason to be married to a specific set of initial tower spots
uuuh..
would it help? maybe
none i think
is it necessary? fuck no
most strats pf adopt have strict rules by design ; so that there's always "someone to blame for the wipe"
Wiping cuz no mit
@trim frost this is me when i get a shitty roll on the one piece i need for the 4th week in a row
i forgot to do my duolingo
I forget we still need mit at 780 ilvl for spreads
The gays definitely self-slurring in the dms im calling yall out
one piece mentioned
gear does not exist it is not real
i feel u tho
lately i've just been siphoning off my friends' lootmaster parties taking gear they don't need lol
M9s books are like useless anyway
i didn't win any pieces from m9 until like last week lmfao
And its just 1 raid bis piece
people that dont put one player per job in the pf listing
i helped with a lootmaster week 3 and they gave me a non-ring piece so i just used my books on ring
kind of related but i've started locking the dps slots to 2 melee 1 caster because im sick of a second prange joining
this also happened last tier when i was on rdm
idk if it's a blessing or a curse that i don't need as many raid pieces
like bro go away
bc now i need a shitload of glaze
vamp fatale lowkey got hands bro
9 rpr clear?

Use books
yea im lucky, i only need 2pcs from m9s and 1 from m10/m11 respectively
buut yeah
i need glaze
i'm gonna be bis-ing tank healer and striking methinks
i think i'm gonna actually commit to lootmastering m11 this week for my pants and twine
and maybe solvent
actually at that point i might as well full lm
10 is... whatever
chest :3
i love chest
nvm
I lowkey think I’ve lost my motivation to play ffxiv. Why do breaks from video games snowball so hard
shrug
The same happens with gachas
play ffxiv or you will lose your toes
im also getting tired of my gachas
Like you miss one day and then you suddenly haven’t logged in for a week
no way the tyrant got you losing motivation to play
icl
last tier was doing this to me
it is tiring yea
I might even download ||deadlock|| atp 
last week's goody bags that i didn't open
let's do this together bro
(i didn't go past 10)
I NEED IT
I NEED ITTTT
drools
I have those too
ok so phys ranged needs it huh
gloves yeah
Emergency change class coffers
brd needs gloves and chest
chicken butt

Why tf do ppl keep sending me gifs of gacha characters getting their armpits licked

oh
is this about the umamusume thing
which game
I got sent the Uma one
Honsegirl fans went wild over the weekend yeah
But I also got sent a zzz version
So much so that the devs changed the costume to cover the arms
lol
somehow I've managed to avoid every single armpit GIF but I keep hearing about it on the bird app
how have I not seen a single armpit gif yet
ok im ngl the texture of the wilds stuff fucking sucks ass
And a frieren version
mmm boob
😔
chest
Idk I have literally never had a twitter and I’ve seen like 4 armpit gif variations
is that your char valcors
yes
it's ugly yeah i'm gonna look for something else
tithus behave

RILAKKUMA
IN THE CORNER
man i really hope i finish reclears in 1 day
then i can join this chaotic run
on friday
Erm
wtf
we will have 3 rosters yea
demand too high 
damn
I love getting pvp'd in m10n
this job is so fucking trash
0 DHIT MADEEN 
7 HITS 0 DHIT 
11.8% comet crit/dhit rate
actually just fucking kill me
mch in nq crafted gear with no pot no food no meld is outdpsing me with these crits
comet in gray (parse)
m9s was one pull clear, m10s was one pull clear, m11s for my first week of reclear i saw .6 once and like 30 pulls 
more like 15 but
i feel u bro
why am I getting such shit normal pfs on reset
Here’s the question before I upgrade weapons this week …. Been swapping between mch and bard all static and reclears play both equally well do I commit to mch for parse or bard for the group?
if you play both equally well why not just parse on bard
Why not both
True
Well if people are geared then bard would be better
Then once you get more gear you can do mch
Bard is always lower for some reason
Personal damage wise or rdps wise
Personal damage
Well yeah
you are either making more mistakes on bard or the other 7 people arent playing well
MCH does more because it’s a selfish DPS
I mean it’s still lower damage compared to the other selfish dps, but compared to BRD/DNC it does more personal damage
Weekly reset happened right
Yes
No its tomorrow
I habe no sense of time im really sick
I honestly don’t mind playing a support dps role my self worth is reliant on massive numbers as long as I can pump up others to max
Why do reclears always make me somehow nervous
ive had
pretty decent mch players
in pf this tier
its the dancers that usually suck for some reason
Smn mch have been relatively decent
my bad 
Analysis says my bard buffs are perfect
Is there a specific spot I can see if the maximize my buffs during the windows?
At bottom of xivanalysis
Mch has always been perfectly fine in all savages... People just cant play it right. The hate is honestly overdone.
i think people just pick up dnc because they're told it was easy and don't put the effort in to actually learn the job, so they just end up sucking
You can see timeline
mch was a lot worse in the past
See if players are aligning buffs or not
Why do DNC seem more popular than bard this patch?
dnc is easy
it starts at 60
brd is considerably harder and starts at lv 1
so the entry barrier is higher
I loooove bard the animation everything they need to buff their personal dps to make the skill ceiling even higher
bard doesn't need any buffs
bard needs to keep its current kit but do 99k personal dps
no other changes
It’s sooo much fun to play but I think it gets shit on due to numbers
no
No
it isn't
bard is good is the general consensus rn
Nobody sees the raw dps
mch is technically the worst
but it isn't really that far behind for clear purposes
medians are pretty tight together, but mch caps out the lowest since
won't really matter unless you're trying to week 1
I’ll go bard wep first
just pick whatever's fun
job choice is usually the last issue stopping most people from clearing content, specially this patch
just play well
Both are tbh but next expansion better be a new prange and a new tank or I quit
If you're struggling to clear content, the issue is with you and/or the party
Not job choice
enjoying your job means you are more likely to be passionate about it, which means you are more likely to actively try and improve, which will make you more likely to do acceptable damage
I’ve already cleared the tier
I'd much rather get a smn that presses buttons than any other caster if they struggle to get good uptime with it
I was just trying to decide what weapon to commit on
same with mch and the other prange
if you get bad uptime with prange you need to turn in your job stone
you have no excuse
True
Why, of all jobs, can Scholars not fucking do Undead Deathmatch
PUT THE RUIN 2 IN THE BAG OR I'LL HAVE YOUR HEAD
mb im new 
gdi now I won't even be able to get m9 done before work
call in sick
i have an alt on EU (it hasn't finished dawntrail)
I have an alt on NA hasn’t finished dt msg either
oh same
yan
How do you play w that ping?
i also play with 200 ping
lol
JP is the region I have the least ping in
I live in asia

I travel there for market purposes and my pain is horrible but they have the best cheapest market board I’ve ever seen
*ping
We typically have the most expensive prices
I am missing 1 twine 1 shine and the weapon
had the fucking
craziest wipe to 11 btw
they should let you cuss out a player once per week
@rapid whale look at ts
i love when people fiucking
type in chat
instead of hitting lb
lol
had the audacity to blame the dnc for lbing btw
sry i couldn't make use of the 20 seconds i had to hit lb
can't hit lb i'm new you don't pay my sub
die
this is so aggravating to watch aaaaaaa
@rapid whale do you find yourself straining the hammer buff to the last possible second for movement at times lol
also

i lost the solvent roll with a 90
this game sucks
ya thats the base
brother i keep rewatching that clip
you only pop hammers when its about to overcap, hold onto it until you need to move, spend as the buff falls off
i do this leading into weapons 2
yea
you pop the hammers as its abt to overcap and it lets you do puddles
swift cast motif hammer again lets you handle the stack/spread -> smudge into where you gotta b
not spend hammer but the hammer motif
same thing w/ the 6 weapons
yea ive done m11s from every dps spot now lolol
smile
i'm finally chill with the movement in ecliptic
i realised that if you swift motif the orbital then swift comes back right at the very end of the aoe baits
so you can like hammer + comet into swift motif just barely
lol i play r1 🙁
they mean as a caster
ahhh
i would do it on like dancer where i can just throw a dash out
but caster is so bad
smudge is so scary to use quickly too
you get used to it
Even on dnc it feels like terrorism ngl
yeah i've learned to hit it really late
on brd gotta turn and aim your back jump
I'm just used to last second greed as melee
hammer is damage neutral, right?
ok, more specifically, when is hammer a gain or a loss
keeping in mind it's a force dcrit
no, hammer is a gain
it was a loss for a period of time but now its a gain since 7.3
shouldve played slightly better then 
uninstall if p2

something is happening here.
put on your mare glasses
understandable

Die
explode.
silly question. if you do fourth floor savage twice in a week, can you roll on the mount twice or is that also only one chance per week
weke
rng if it's the random wep + minion or coffer + mount
i beleive
keyboaraad seems to be double inputting
huh
i kinda assumed you could roll on the mount multiple times because it's not gear
inchresting
those letters aren't even that near on the keyboard
SE wants to grab your sub by the balls and keep it
they are not letting you farm anything from savage
the other option is to wait for echo
but i have no clue why does it feel so long till they add echo/unlock savaage
well yeah but if they unlocked at let's say the start of the odd patch
hm, i guess shb felt... more on time with the unlock and echo due to covid
I could unsub right now and feed the remaining 2 people in my group who need alt job gear for the ultimate in 3 months in a single week
instead we will be doing another 4 weeks of reclears because they need tome augments
gladge
NEW WEEK
SAME ROLLS 
buddy you and i both know i did not win that shit
true
I think this game would honestly feel less shit if loot was personal and you still had 7/8 odds of not winning anything
at least then you don't have to roll a 95 and get your hopes up then watch somebody else roll a 96
you can just buy canes at the store
they're accessibility devices
not that hard to find
week 1 clear btw, need 2 twines, 3 glazes and a weapon, and also pants
i booked the helm
1 twine if i continue to use the non bis chest piece...
i can forgo the twine if i just take the subpar boots
I got lucky getting twine week 1 for being in pf..
gambling for the gear doesn’t give me any enjoyment
the potential to be a loot goblin is not worth the potential to lose almost everything
six sevennnn
YOUR A STAR
you'd never hate my cute bunny girl
lota champion
why dis @tired egret so mad
???
I cant wait for the day when they pull dragon south
WHM at Lvl 50
Idk keep it at mid
is that you or someone with the same name
yes
I think that’s literally what happened in this alliance raid
that happened

thats so funny
to the edge? is that a shadowbringers reference
in a friend group im in its an inside joke to just yell in alliance chat to pull the dragon south
mfs on their way to be mad over level 50 content
And nuke adds
We kept it middle and like
Half of all the people exploded

So this tank pulls it south
Me when no mits exist
50 is ass
A card I guess
it's a pain in the ass when they make that dragon close to the adds
especially as Healer
very much so when I have barely ANY form of MP Recovery for Raising
Medica 2 gaming ftw
yeah but its level 50 content
you're not spamming heals
90% of the time ur still casting stone 3
stone 2 but yeah
Stoned mage
Yo
