typically, nin can feint pretty much anything, so i'd do the start, somewhere on cd during weapons but not for dance of domination, the other melee feints that

another feint in wind weapons in the middle
the raw stack without a meteor for the party
the raidwide before crown of arcadia after the steel chair
two/fourway

trim frost
#

oh yeah i think i do hold it for raidwide but i should probably just use it to catch both

thin fox
#

basically what i do as drk is i dash in

#

wait a sec

#

hit missionary

#

people will generally be close enough for it to hit

trim frost
#

i haven’t even been dashing in because i’m scared of being too close for whatever reason

grand mesa
#

just be max melee

#

if the 4 ppl baiting 4way arent in hitbox its their problem

#

not urs

trim frost
#

i have like

#

what

#

four seconds between meteor lines and fireball?

alpine plover
#

speaking of

trim frost
#

i guess i could make do but i like to play it safe

thin fox
#

you have so much time

alpine plover
#

did pf adopt the

#

uh

thin fox
#

fixed?

trim frost
#

i do not want to be culpable for a wipe at the 9 minute 30 second mark

thin fox
#

yes

grand mesa
#

unfortunately

alpine plover
#

"ranged goes in the middle of the tower to give melee uptime" strat?

grand mesa
#

yes

thin fox
#

most pfs do fixed now

alpine plover
#

is that how it's called?

thin fox
#

yes

alpine plover
#

isee

thin fox
#

its called that because the four/twoway baits are in fixed positions

alpine plover
#

makes sense

thin fox
#

melees sw/se, north baiter nw, south baiter ne

#

then h1 > h2 > r1 > r2 prio n/cw

#

for towers

grand mesa
#

I've died to a failed flex>failed tower>party dot a couple of times

alpine plover
#

you know i think it's

#

very expected actually

thin fox
#

i don't mind doing it as r2 but i imagine as r1 or h2 its really annoying

alpine plover
#

pf when a strat with more uptime and more complicated stuff appears

#

adopts it asap

finite plank
#

jp has totan, it is divided as g8 seem to have chosen the downtime version

grand mesa
#

I love giving my melees 2 more gcds and wiping more because of it!!!

finite plank
#

it's g1 n cw and g2 n ccw

thin fox
#

i think the main benefit for pf isn't the uptime its the fixed baits for four/twoway because ppl just could not eyes it

grand mesa
#

its not hard

#

but i also have no faith in pf

#

my main issue is

finite plank
grand mesa
#

if ur not prey bait as healer

#

ure guaranteed to move out for tether

#

which means you can't be mid to mit if shit goes south

sleek moon
#

we run double caster and that stat becomes even safer

#

no weird priority system

#

the fake melee always gets one of the tether and one of the r/h gets the other

alpine plover
#

that sounds very reasonable and decent

#

which is why we can't have it

sleek moon
#

just block the 2nd melee slot lmao

alpine plover
#

we need it to be complicated and convoluted

thin fox
#

i had to m1 my picto reclear

grand mesa
#

isnt fake melee chill

sleek moon
#

it is

thin fox
#

i hate being g1 for weapons

grand mesa
#

ah

sleek moon
#

scythe has so little movement for mlee spots

grand mesa
#

fair

#

m2 is the baby spot

sleek moon
#

good for casters

stray forge
trim frost
#

playing non pld mt in weapons

thin fox
#

i will say

#

my favourite fake melee thing in m11

#

is actually meteors lol

#

i have to send so much more shit in the caster spot for meteors

#

because i need to be able to go in while dodging the aoe and then also come back out

#

whereas fake melee i can slide cast the whole mechanic

grand mesa
#

you don't have to do much, yeah

finite plank
#

we have a dumb strat for meteors in jp

grand mesa
#

im

#

curious

#

got a link?

finite plank
#

we start building on the very outside first

thin fox
#

doesnt jp do the same thing except its se/ne instead of nw/ne

finite plank
#

so healers go out

sleek moon
#

ive always wondered why did the pf strat ended up being party baits meteors north though

#

zero positionals for the entire mechanic

trim frost
#

awesome artwork time for them to announce literally nothing of value

thin fox
#

boss always turns to face the party

#

so

#

doesnt really matter

finite plank
#

so a tank WILL lose uptime because the tether WILL be on the outermost meteor

grand mesa
#

i hate when ppl use it to justify why that strat is good tbh

finite plank
#

instead of it starting on boss range first

stray forge
#

That is so pepega

trim frost
#

narukami front and center tho that’s my goat

thin fox
#

every time the boss does the line stack he faces the party so it doesnt matter where you position the boss hes gonna keep turning to face the party

#

you can just burn true north tbh because its not like youll need it for split

alpine plover
#

so one second

sleek moon
# grand mesa got a link?

https://www.youtube.com/@nukemarugames all of them are here if you want to see the other fights

grand mesa
#

ty

sleek moon
#

i think jp mostly uses nukemaru?

finite plank
sleek moon
#

nukemaru or game8

grand mesa
alpine plover
thin fox
#

yes

alpine plover
#

that's

#

quite crazy

finite plank
#

we place them on the L corner nearest to the boss so uptime is possible when waiting for explosion

alpine plover
finite plank
#

we use the corner tiles on the ground

sleek moon
#

for the first meteor theres no aoe going off

#

so melees have it easier

finite plank
#

supposedly

sleek moon
#

casters have to dodge the aoe from the healer meteor

grand mesa
#

making h1 go far and not ur prange is evil

#

LMAO

finite plank
#

this makes the third hit need less mit because the third player can move in time to take the stack

#

as having the last third one be at the very corner, it was difficult for them to reach the stack

thin fox
#

wait so the close meteor moves into the stack?

finite plank
#

not that it hurted that much i think

thin fox
#

that sounds kinda monka for the tanks

#

beep beep coming through please dont have a tether in my way

grand mesa
#

theres probably

finite plank
grand mesa
#

an unspoken "if u grab a tether from a tank ur a dumbass" rule

finite plank
#

not on players unless someone crossed the meteor

alpine plover
#

the problem is if my cotank steals my tether

grand mesa
#

tanks already have the tethers by the time the 3rd meteor drops

finite plank
#

so, the very first tether will have a tank be fucked for uptime to be guaranteed to take a far tether

alpine plover
#

i wonder if i can convince my group to do this crazy jp strat

#

i'll probably be crucified tho

finite plank
#

you're in charge of always NW or SE

#

no chance of crossing between tanks

thin fox
#

i might try go into m12 later on caster

finite plank
#

or was it NE and SW, i forgot

#

i dont play tank but there's a descriptor somewhere

grand mesa
#

tho

finite plank
#

but im very certain there is no chance of conflict if you follow that rule

#

between the tether for tanks

grand mesa
#

idt ive ever had issues with mit in meteors

#

shield heal has 2min mit for first two stacks and 10% for last two

#

and it'll come back up for the knockup pre 2min

grand mesa
#

LMAO

finite plank
#

^tf plan, not g8

not a lot

Like

sick reef

man

loud nymph

I wanna say 5 for a CE

wicked delta
#

8 for a CE? Idk

dapper zealot

5

loud nymph

and none for fates

sick reef
#

this paste grind is disgusting

#

thats crazy

wicked delta

Oh yea its 5… its literally nothing

grand mesa

im going to save my sanity and forget about paste

#

until i complete the step

sick reef
#

its so bad

loud swift
#

normal fates are 3 per

sick reef
#

WHEN THE LELVING IS AN IFRIT 🔥

loud nymph
#

because you're mostly getting it from the stuff you're doing anyway

random needle
#

I just wish that this step actually incentivized doing anything in OC

loud nymph
#

and since it's a one time step once you're done with it you never have to think about it again

sick reef
#

almost...

random needle
#

I vastly preferred the aetherwells because at least I was doing interesting content in those rouls sometimes, unlike ARR Dungeon #6283

loud nymph

if you're not doing roulettes, and not doing ex or savage reclears

then respectfully

what are you doing in this game

highkey wanna do cosmic n OC but like 5 paste is sad

grand mesa

i'd log on, gpose and log off for about the course of a year during my content sabbatical

sick reef
#

im done w ex, savage gg im too trash

grand mesa
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

loud nymph
#

honestly oc giving ass paste is bad but it's at least a step up from aetherwells which was literally undoable in oc

loud swift
#

crystal tower raid #8364

sick reef
#

at least OC makes me money too

random needle
#

Technically yeah, but it still feels pretty weak compared to most other methods

dapper zealot
#

Not as bad as demiatma tho

random needle
#

It it was like... 10 paste per, and OC FATEs dropped it too, that'd be a little more enticing

sick reef

gacha was ass, id like a sort of failsafe but welp

loud nymph
#

people would bitch about being "forced" to do OC for a weapon that's currently useless

#

but fuck em

Yeah it should have been 5 per oc fate and 10 ce

question for all the gamers in here, imagine you join a levelling roulette, as a healer, and the random warrior with dps friends start to try and strongarm you into not healing because the warrior says it ruins their fun, what would you do?

wicked delta
#

Leave

random needle
#

This is an extremely specific situation

loud swift
#

why not

boreal pumice
#

shurg and go ok and just do dps

loud swift
#

i'm not in a rush

crystal pivot
#

also, you're a white mage, you need blood lilies

wicked delta
#

Look man its a warrior you already don’t need to heal their ass anyway

grand mesa

im going to press my buttons because I'm going to be bored as shit playing a 1 button rotation anyway

I've only had 3 actually bad experiences in xiv since I started playing, all in casual dungeons;

you would think we had deaths in idyllic

we didn't expect to get close anyways

lmao i feel that

i remember early weeks iw as playing perfectly fine then i actually saw enrage, sudden wave of shakies and couldnt even track my clone in rep 1 anymore

worn bluff
#

only got past towers clean like 2x

#

last part still new to me

#

i died to autos in the middle and had to burn my 40% to stay alive after, then had no mit for the final TB followup but somehow still survived

rapid whale

ttt superior to both if the tanks can handle it

worn bluff
#

i did TTT on my first clear, it was fine

#

but idk how healers feel about it

rapid whale
#

it's less work for healers either way

worn bluff
#

tanks should have all mits up for third tower if they hit rampart right before first ecliptic puddle circle appears

robust shoal
#

I can't TTT because I used vigil to chad my ecliptic tether madgeClap

I'm just a dum caster, I wait for the healers to tell me when to press Addle and then I eat the dog treat

jolly flume
#

why are we talking about this again

#

😭

rapid whale
wind cypress
#

you'd need to save your kitchen sink for that bit right? some tanks blow their cool downs on the towers right before if the healer leaves them at 50 - 70% health when they go off

dull drum
#

and technically with good timing you dont have to share a hit on first tower

robust shoal
#

also yeah mt dying to ecliptic tower is a big concern

worn bluff
#

ramp+short is enough for ecliptic tower

dull drum
worn bluff
#

it's not super comfy but as long as healers not asleep it's ok

jolly flume
#

I spreadlo off the mt during the cast now that we dont have alts in the party

#

those autos kinda creep up on you

wind cypress
#

with no mits you pop on tower, with 1 mit you prob have 20% health, 2 mits you're fine yeah

worn bluff
#

hopefully the MT has rampart up the entire time for puddle drops

wind cypress

but yeah good healers make it smooth, prob is the good healer part in pf 😄

dreamy whale

I’m working on it

wind cypress
#

I tried an experiment yesterday, 3k tenacity vs dps gear, for the meteors you don't even need any mits with ten build and dps build pops in one hit, so dps build you gotta blow 3 cds which gives you next to nothing for towers, 500 less dps though on ten build

dull drum
#

im griefing dropping to like 60%

dreamy whale
#

I got burned out and took a month and a half off to play poe2

rapid whale
#

is pure tenacity build like, having perma rampart on

rapid whale
dreamy whale
#

I was

rapid whale
#

also cap because the tier has been out for a month and a half

dreamy whale
#

Ok 2 months

rapid whale
#

more like 4

wind cypress
#

3500ish ten is 22-25% passive mits, applied after your other mits are factored in, I don't see how 0 ten tanks can do that part personally

rapid whale
#

goddam

#

so its more than a perma rampart

jolly flume
#

you realize how much fucking tenacity 3500 is right

#

like if you meld every single slot on current bis with tenacity you have around 1700

#

and that's worth 9.2% dr

sinful brook
#

3500 means intentionally taking pieces that don't offer any good damage substats too

#

thats kinda cursed

wind cypress
#

my tank ten build is 3100 and does about 24k dps on m11s, if I drop it to 1k I can get like 350 - 600 more dps so depends on how close dps check is

versed kayak
wind cypress
#

getting that uptime without killing people is the balancing part xD

dull drum
#

just play pld bro

jolly flume
#

sinking 2500 substat points into mitigation for a fight where tanks take significant damage once is crazy

wind cypress

yeah I think if healers coordinated well on the tough bits you'd be fine with a bit less ten

I'd rather do TTP on white mage because I can just bell and afk the last tower but besides that more or less

undone tide

yeah, if I made it that part

mossy eagle
#

Really homophobic that the balance made me overmeld with tenacity this tier

rapid whale
#

that's not the balance fault

#

blame yoshi p

undone tide
#

you might make it to that part if your dps and healers had to focus on dps less because youre running 3100 tenacity

wind cypress
#

they can dps almost as well as me now, you ssee those 23k white mages?

rapid whale
#

uhm

wind cypress
#

nutters, back in my day shakes cane we'd be lucky to see 16k

jolly flume
#

er I don't think that's good

rapid whale
#

having a healer do your dps as good as you isnt good

undone tide
#

i do like 26k on pld in m7s..

wind cypress
#

most healers in pf are around 17-18k, but sometimes you get those running 22+

and how does this affect your justification of running 3100 tenacity

mossy eagle

Yeah same

rapid whale
#

r they like actually actually running it?

mossy eagle

From quickly reading chat

#

It's fun as like, an experiment

undone tide
#

oh my bad

#

i’m grilling an innocent

rapid whale
#

maybe i misunderstood

clear plume
#

I mean tenacity isn’t that much worse than det damage wise, it’s not like it’s going to drag you to last tier numbers

wind cypress
#

you trade 12% mits for 4% increase in damage in dps vs ten build - so cases for both depending on team make up?

rapid whale
#

o okay they were srs

wind cypress
#

or maybe somewhere in the middle?

rapid whale
#

nvm carry on

undone tide
#

uhm we live in a day and age where you have 40% mitigation plus like a 25% of your hp shield

clear plume
#

When I was doing criterion gear work it simmed like 700 dps apart or whatever, but the thing is that every mitigation that doesn’t save resources is a waste

undone tide
#

i don’t think you need that 12%

jolly flume
#

the section of the fight you were talking about

clear plume
#

You don’t translate extra mitigation into anything like that

jolly flume
#

the ecliptic buster

#

you took 121k dmg

#

I don't think you need tenacity mit for that lol

mossy eagle
jolly flume
#

piety actually does something in prog

mossy eagle
#

It would be one thing if outgoing damage was so high that it was required, but fights seem to be designed around no tenacity. You can always just plan mits better and get better

jolly flume
#

ten is like

#

it tiers better sometimes

#

and that's about it

mossy eagle
#

Yeah for sure piety is not nearly in as bad a place

clear plume
#

Idk I know a lot of w1 tanks who swear by tenacity in prog post buff

#

But outside of w1 yeah not needed

mossy eagle
#

99% of players won't be in that scenario

#

But yeah

#

It's just really fucking niche instead of a meaningful consideration

wind cypress
#

I wasn't fast enough to between running to grab the portals during meteors when running my no ten build and literally just blew up in 1 hit, so extra risk for the non-pro if using no ten than forgetting to pop a skill and being fine at 10 - 20% health

#

during prog anyway

dull drum
#

bro theres a button called sprint

worn bluff
#

people clear m11 now that don't even use half their mits properly and don't buddy mit at all

mossy eagle
#

I mean that goes back to my point of "skill issue", no offense

#

You're trading 500-600 DPS to be able to forget to push a button

wind cypress
#

if ten is so useless why is it still in the game?

mossy eagle

mechanic fails generally wont be saved by having tenacity vs not, it's not useless it's just slightly worse than the rest

Stats in this game consist of:

  • 2 layers of RNG that everyone stacks and prays for crits
  • pick a minor adjustment to your GCD speed based on alignment and comfort
  • Piety based on how often I forget to press lucid dreaming
  • Tenacity
jolly flume
#

you can do more damage yourself though

mossy eagle
#

Maximize your own performance and that's your best chance of doing well in PF (and also make a book merc party if you're like me and desperate)

wind cypress
#

I think I lean towards ten because I don't like dying to damage in pfs, I'd prob be more comfy with less with the right group xD

mossy eagle
#

If you don't like dying to damage then push the fucking mitigation buttons lmao

#

Idk how to tell it any less bluntly sorry

wind cypress
#

I do, but after 250 pulls in pf on m11s it's like following a routine

rapid whale
#

all i can say is plenty of tanks have done perfectly fine without going ham on the ten

dull drum
terse zodiac
#

ten is very overstated how bad it is but also it is just simply worse to invest in, if its a 1000 dps change it brings you from a 90 parse to an 80

jolly flume
#

eventually that 600 dps will matter

mossy eagle
#

I say this as someone who has died multiple times on meteorain because I forgor to hit guardian. My brain then slowly carves out some neurons to remember

worn bluff
wind cypress
#

my routine has my saving my mits from meteors instead of making sure I run, avoid explosion aoes, watch which side the other tank is grabbing in case its a west east portal, trying to hit the boss, try to not bee too close cause I'd get marked for a meteor, and sometimes only a few I might be slightly late on hitting the mit button

#

and boom wipe, cause for some reason they love making raids where rezzes are useless

terse zodiac
#

what i dont get is why ten doesn't always have some place because surely having 4 damage scalars will almost always beat 3 even if 1 is slightly weaker

jolly flume
#

rezzes are not useless

#

you would've hated anabaseios 😭

mossy eagle
#

Bro does not know what a body check tier is like

90% of the time, by the time someone gets rezed in m11s during the 2nd half its a wipe xD

it just sounds like you aren't planning your mit usage good
