also u disappeared for like 2 weeks

Ill have you know Ive been active in the secret OSRS subchannel

Also my friends keep asking me to play games and I dont have to willpower to tell them no so I can raid

[grand mesa]

are you a half bottle full or half bottle empty kind of person

[rain geode]

Gurl my bottle is empty

[stray forge]

I am the kind of person who fills the bottle back up to full once it gets to half

next question

[rain geode]

sorry should slow down on the despresso memes but In a round about way I suppose I answered half empty

[grand mesa]

[rain geode]

Thats the spiritually correct answer but my technical answer is it depends on whether or not I percieve the thing in the bottle as something that needs to be currently filled or not

[grand mesa]

[rain geode]

but yeah Im not like some insane player but my intellectual confidence in my ability to clear the tier if I played is high just the motivation to actually go do it is very low and my friends playing games with me doesnt help in that aspect.

okay

ur main issue is that ur trying to parse uwu

yw

[low hearth]

i gotta do dsr instead?

u need sand bags for ts bruh

[grand mesa]

uwu will naturally just have a lot of parses on the higher end padded by pigging out on the add phases

[low hearth]

oh

[stray forge]

oink oink monkey d loser

[rain geode]

Isnt UWU parse just also gonna be rought because theres going to simply be a lot of them because of how old it is

[stray forge]

no

[grand mesa]

you'll be competing with people on the same patch

but uwu is a popular ultimate

[stray forge]

thats also not how percentiles work lol

[low hearth]

u gotta giga pad plumes and ifrit nails

but if other people do it as well they die early and its obnoxious

you're cringe if you try to parse uwu and wipe the party to plumes

as long as u know how to play better

and strive for it

[wicked delta]

I’ll check log tmr to see what I can do better next time

[stray forge]

Can't even find a pf for m11s to do better in

gg

[grand mesa]

tbh

its probably gcd roll

[trim frost]

elite rin shinimi mentality

[grand mesa]

also

be careful not to

standard step when you know you can't hit the boss from where you are

it doesn't happen often in this fight but there are some places

[wicked delta]

Yea I’ll keep that in mind

[jolly flume]

[rain geode]

league 🤢

[wicked delta]

It was definitely gcd roll

And weaving issues

(Also I died)

i was just pressing shi ngl 😭

[stray forge]

I was going to judge for playing league but im playing much much worse rn

[wicked delta]

Sure

[grand mesa]

you definitely missed some standard windows

also

ABC could be higher

there's more minor issues with combo or feather useage in 2mins but

these are the two major issues atm

[wicked delta]

Got it

[jolly flume]

I will say the couple times I've watched you play the clicking is probably not helping

[wicked delta]

Its not I know its a problem 😭😭

I’m trying to become a keybind gamer

[grand mesa]

buys u an mmo mouse

[wicked delta]

Its still wonky though

But we keep trying

[grand mesa]

I'm broke too, mb

[wicked delta]

Also ngl

Sometimes I just like

Dropped gcds

To not get hit during orbital

[grand mesa]

tbh

[wicked delta]

hardest mech

[grand mesa]

pressing the wrong gcd is better than losing one

so just hit one of your buttons while you look at and focus on the dodge

[wicked delta]

I’ll try that next time

[grand mesa]

you kind of just want to ingrain Pressing A Button and keeping your gcd roll going as a habit

[midnight furnace]

Man SAM is a lot more fun than i thought

Animations feel powerful too

[grand mesa]

Keybinds will also help wth this

[midnight furnace]

Plus it really doesnt feel as demanding as other Melee

Weave wise

[rain geode]

I'm really good about rolling my GCDs slide casting to early and canceling is definitely the biggest annoyance because the window feels still a bit weird

[grand mesa]

If you don't use the slidecast plugin

.5s left is where I start it

Never fails me

[rain geode]

Yeah I think I mostly have the timing just not quite perfect

I've started treating it as two osrs ticks and that's mostly worked

[worn bluff]

oop

i forgot to press FoF at the end

[rain geode]

Although I've also been a bit more careful with slide casting then I usually am when learning mechanics because I don't want to get into the habit of eating shit to try and slide cast

[wind cypress]

slide casting plugin would get me killed on savage so I disabled it, there a better one? 🤔

[round burrow]

Live laugh m9s

[wicked delta]

?

How did it get you killed

[wind cypress]

when I needed to move it would lock me place long enough I'd almos tmake it to the location, was back in dancing green

[worn bluff]

oh like it literally won't let you cancel your cast?

had no idea it did that

[wicked delta]

Um I don’t think the plugin does that

The one that was mentioned literally just shows when it’s safe to slidecast

[wind cypress]

orb walker or something, think they had a hotkey to override but by the time you pressed it rip

[wicked delta]

It shouldn’t do anything else other than that

Unless im missing smth

[wind cypress]

yeah

[wicked delta]

Cus I just use simpletweaks to show me the slidecast timing n that literally never happened to me lol

[worn bluff]

sounds like a different plugin

[wind cypress]

yeah was 🤣

[wicked delta]

Also yea one of my bad habits is that I will jus drop uptime if my brain is figuring out a mech

It happens less when I get used to a fight

But sometimes im just more focused on not dying

Tbh it would happen less if I didn’t have to look at my hotbar to click too

But yea

I shall take these moments as learning opportunities

[grand mesa]

[worn bluff]

you're trying to improve which is better than most people

so just by that alone you'll get there

[wicked delta]

Tbh I have been feeling pretty bad for how bad I am at this game despite playing it for a while

So im really putting in effort to clear stuff n play better

[worn bluff]

it's pretty common to have lower damage in your earlier clears, plus you don't have as much gear

i wouldn't feel bad about it

the habits will build over time

[rapid whale]

it is called jp pulling anyway when u get to a new mech and just stop pushing buttons to do the mech as cleanly as possible

[wicked delta]

That’s what my friend recommended to me when I was still baby raider

Its just a habit I still have

Well im still kinda baby raider tbh. I haven’t ever cleared a tier before

[midnight dome]

Ive not touched a single one myself other than the standard normal raids

[thin fox]

honestly I think this is incredibly bad advice

for a new raider

[fierce matrix]

I hate the concept too

[thin fox]

if you're a new raider you are probably not as comfortable with doing a complicated mechanic while also doing your rotation, so it's not trivial to go from "i have done every mechanic in [fight] without hitting buttons" to doing your rotation

[fierce matrix]

One of the biggest things raiders need to do is learn how to do their rotation and keep uptime whole doing mechs

[thin fox]

it's also just bad for any job with non trivial uptime

[fierce matrix]

Sure maybe clip a bit and drop uptime while you are learning it

[thin fox]

e.g. if you're a caster in m11s and do this then you have to relearn the entire fight to know where to spend your instants

[rapid whale]

i mean theres a reason its called jp pulling right

[thin fox]

yeah its one thing to not worry about mistakes or be willing to drop gcds for a few secs to just keep a prog pull alive

[rapid whale]

def not the norm in our side of the pond

[thin fox]

but the whole "do not hit buttons at all" is just bad advice for new people

[fierce matrix]

Did JP even do it tho during the races?

[thin fox]

racers def dont do it

because you never know when youre gonna just walk into a clear

[fierce matrix]

Yeah was gonna say

[thin fox]

lucrezia saw m9 enrage on 1st pull

[fierce matrix]

Idk why it's called JP prog when the mfs dont even use it

Another JP braindead moment from p9s

[thin fox]

just like jp strats that jp dont use

[fierce matrix]

Yeah fr lmao

Saw one group on JP do it

[thin fox]

furen have you seen the legendary oce strat

for 12

[fierce matrix]

Must be JP

The one where they do temp light parties for all of idyllic?

[thin fox]

[fierce matrix]

Ya i mentioned it that we did it week 1

Because we didnt know it was role baited

Seemed odd to just go back and forth to your parties so

I did see a strat where you grabbed your mech by a prio system on your clone/partner

And then youd always stack on the melee clones

But youd have to pay attention where the clones were at and dodge accordingly

[thin fox]

EU still does downtime stacks

[fierce matrix]

Hear me out

Okay m11s

South markers are outer

North markers are inner

[rapid whale]

i had

[fierce matrix]

Play Russian roulette

[rapid whale]

a group like that week 1

n ppl didnt say anything

then flamed me and kicked me

[jolly flume]

they did for a few pulls in fru

i don't really think there's a point doing it in savage though

[rapid whale]

i wonder if its called jp pull because it's more normal in pf? like "once we reach the prog point you're expected to sacrifice as much dmg as possible to try and do the mech"

[worn bluff]

[alpine plover]

[alpine plover]

do you guys believe the ability to adjust is an indicator of skill?

[valid solar]

an indicator of understanding the mechanic perhaps, not necessarily of skill

[wicked delta]

^

[jolly flume]

understanding the mechanic is skill

[amber fable]

Its only a skill if it dont wipe

[jolly flume]

skill in this game is not the same as skill in a lot of other games

[dull drum]

fuck adjusting i plant and assert my sigmaness

otherwise you’re a bottom

[jolly flume]

the bar for execution is so insanely low that what distinguishes good players from ok players is usually just knowledge lol

[amber fable]

Cant do last second on the fly dodge shit

[jolly flume]

but also it kinda depends what kinda adjust you're talking about like

I don't really expect everyone to be able to fix a mechanic on the fly

but a healer that can't adjust for deaths/unnecessary damage/missing mit is just dead weight

[wicked delta]

I remember Bapple saving a pull for meteorrain cus one of the melees died

[amber fable]

Anyone sane would do that

Instead of wiping it

Like dying before heartbreak

Then other tank take it

It really depends on mech too

Cant adjust role stack in bond 3

Well beside sac and lb3

[worn bluff]

we almost had to do PTP once because someone sniped the other tank with wind

and i had to hallowed great wall

but we wiped before then anyways

there are little adjusts you can do though. like if someone's late to spread in insane air, you can move over and let them take the closer spot

but some people will be like "no this is my spot per the raid plan no matter what"

[amber fable]

Had one of those healer who went to north 1st tower in arena because wdz rp says both supp north

[grand mesa]

tbh

[amber fable]

Meanwhile every wdz party does what every other party does that is r1mt

[grand mesa]

it doesnt end up mattering who goes where

[amber fable]

Kinda threw me off there

[grand mesa]

just have 2 each side

[amber fable]

It dont

[grand mesa]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[amber fable]

But at that moment

I was like why is this whm in this tower

[grand mesa]

I still habitually go north from having done a lot of the fight week 1

[worn bluff]

i'm not used to being OT so i accidentally went to kindred spot for that one time

and forced my friend to haul ass to adjust for me

[valid solar]

since I play dnc on 11 I can just dash over to the other tower if someone is in the wrong spot

im afraid im too dented to adjust on ecliptic however

[thin tartan]

MEOW

FUCK OUT DA WAY

[amber fable]

You can adjust if you recognize it early

[valid solar]

m2 on their way to stand in m1's tower:

[trim frost]

is this for split

[amber fable]

I had to learn fixed stampede mid pull as prange...cuz as a tank I was always under impression r+h>m

Didnt actually read up what it actually did kek

[trim frost]

i was very confused at first

bc like

tank doesnt do anything special for fixed lol

[amber fable]

Its same as tf

[trim frost]

yeah ik

[amber fable]

Beside prio for range cuz melees cant use neurons

this has been working for me on m12s part 1 for grot 2 A1 = OUT on 1 → blob 1 (outside) → done A2 = OUT on 2 → blob 2 (outside)→ done A3 = soak 1st blob (inside) → OUT on 3 → done A4 = soak 2nd blob (inside) → OUT on 4 → done B1 = IN on 1 → later take tower 3 B2 = IN on 2 → later take tower 4 B3 = take tower 1 from B1 → IN on 3 B4 = take tower 2 from B2 → IN on 4 can't remember which numbers the actual blob towers are though 🤔

[trim frost]

that

seems like a lot of extra words you're using for what's not really that complicated

[amber fable]

Whats grot

Oh..grotesque

[trim frost]

grotesquerie act 2

grot is this true

the cool kids call it glooper

[amber fable]

3412

Thats all you need to know

For act 2

Alpha takes boss spawn tower

Beta take tether break tower

[trim frost]

i just say alpha blob beta break

mechanic solved

[amber fable]

Easy

[trim frost]

blob tower number is the order they spawn in

[grand mesa]

3/4 are the first two towers that spawn inside

[trim frost]

not predetermined except for the first two blobs being inside on intercards and the last two outside on the other intercards

aka "use eyes"

[grand mesa]

the n/s cardinal 3 spawns in is the same one 1 spawns on

[amber fable]

Just remember the waymark

For where your tower spawned outside

[grand mesa]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/420652632454070304/1475205108772896789/image.png?ex=69a3e391&is=69a29211&hm=5eac7f630c0e4522b8e46ecc772a61647c697f75ba570ed8b75980073af5d546&=&format=webp&quality=lossless

3/1 same n/s quad
4/2 same n/s quad

and they always spawn in a kinda zig zag pattern

[trim frost]

should specify that that's who's taking them, not the order they spawn in

[grand mesa]

yes

[trim frost]

but literally just like

add 2 in your head

[grand mesa]

I'm just saying the outside corner patterns spawn in a pattern related to the inside ones

[trim frost]

yeah

[grand mesa]

so you never actually have to stare at the outside corners to figure out where you're going as alpha 1/2

[alpine plover]

after doing looper

i'm overthinking like hell this mechanic

but it works so who cares

[grand mesa]

As long as you do what you have to

Temu snake 1

[trim frost]

finally got around to actually clearing p8s for the first time the other day

just because i wanted to wait until pf could skip the mechanics that actually require some brain cells

i gotta go back for glam tho

[robust shoal]

I saw a p8s pf up with NA cheese, skip HC

idk what the NA cheese is

[trim frost]

i don't know what na cheese is either

but yeah you can skip hc with gear

[robust shoal]

NA is scarier than HC

but skipping HC is still nice

[trim frost]

i just dont wanna deal with it lmao

[sleek moon]

tbh as far as puzzleslop mechanics go HC isn't too bad

[grand mesa]

I miss p8sp2

I miss chasing my friends down to make the tree

Now I study

[valid solar]

fuck studying we ball

lets make a pf rn

[wicked delta]

[dapper zealot]

Yolo prog

[wicked delta]

He made a statement so confusing the crowd left!

[valid solar]

theres only like 1 mechanic in p1 thats actually tough and I can pilot you through that one, you just need to know the spread positions for the others

[wicked delta]

im tired boss…

Its a little early but

For P2

[valid solar]

it is kinda funny how every single p1 mechanic except for like 2 are spread/stack

[wicked delta]

Do I have to study DN or banana?

[valid solar]

all the prog parties are doing banana

[wicked delta]

I’ll study banana then

Friend said I could probably clear P1 before reset

I’ll do my best

[zealous meteor]

48 minutes until reset

[valid solar]

you can clear p1 in like a single lockout if you get the gang together

[valid solar]

not that reset

[dapper zealot]

Nah he has to clear before daily reset now

[wicked delta]

@valid solar is M12 P1 easier than M11

I feel like I used up my last remaining braincells to do arena split

[valid solar]

undoubtedly

theres only 1 mechanic on the level of arena split in p1

that being looper at home act 2

[wicked delta]

My friend explained a bit of it to me yesterday

I thought she was saying riddles ngl

Riddles and spells

I dunno what all that shit means!

[spice path]

Isn't banana.. more complicated? Pf is whack.

[amber fable]

Yes

M12p1 is easier than m9

Ngl

[valid solar]

The A ranks walk out of the coil, the first 2 rotations everyone stays put, after that, A1 exits, the boss rotates, A2 exits, the boss rotates, A3 exits, the boss rotates, A4 exits

A1 - 1st to leave the coil, soaks the 3rd puddle that spawns before the mech
A2 - 2nd to leave the coil, soaks the 4th puddle that spawns before the mech
A3 - 3rd to leave the coil, soaks the 1st puddle that spawns before the mech (1st puddle is inside the coil)
A4 - 4th to leave the coil, soaks the 2nd puddle that spawns before the mech (2nd puddle is inside the coil)

The B ranks move opposite to the opening from the A ranks, breaking their tether and spawning a puddle

B1 - soaks the 3rd puddle (dropped by B3)
B2 - soaks the 4th puddle (dropped by B4)
B3 - soaks the 1st puddle (dropped by B1)
B4 - soaks the 2nd puddle (dropped by B2)

you might have noticed a pattern here, the debuffs 1/2 match up with 3/4 every time, so take a look at your debuff, add or subtract 2 from your number, and thats the puddle you need to take, if your A, you take the puddle that spawns during the mech cast, if its B, you take the puddle dropped by another player

its very intuitive when you understand how it works

[amber fable]

3412

Same order for both a and b

For tower soak

And you have to be mid when debuff goes to 0

Or breaking chain becomes harder

[wicked delta]

Girl what…

I’ll understand when I actually do it a few times

💀

do you remember the cruel coil from m12 normal ? its that mech except with tethers to break and puddles to soak

[amber fable]

Normal mode has nothing

On coil

Tbf

[wicked delta]

That I understand but

Okay I guess my brain isn’t computing

[amber fable]

The rp makes it look more complicated than it is

[grand mesa]

meow

most important part is

Everyone: When debuff is about to count down, be middle and don't move to break until debuff loses the number and changes shade of color
Alphas

Always move outside of boss to break
Always take ground meat puddle towers

Betas

Always opposite of boss entrance to break
Always take towers dropped by other betas

Rest will make sense when you watch a vod and remember that tower take order is 3412, and break order is 1234

[wicked delta]

Okay right

Ngl my brain broke at the first part cus I thought betas had to drop towers for alphas to take so I was like

[valid solar]

dont think about break order at all to avoid confusion, you'll know its your turn to break because a red circle will appear above your head like 2 seconds before the tether forms

alternatively just look at debuff timer xddd

[wicked delta]

How tf do they take the first ones

But that makes more sense

[wicked delta]

I see

Mechanic involving numbers may be impossible content

We keep trying tho

[valid solar]

[grand mesa]

alphas are doing their own thing.. (finding their ground tower)
betas are engaging in toxic yaoi.. (taking each other's towers)

mb

[wicked delta]

Yeah ik what u said I just somehow convinced myself that you gotta do some shit beforehand

So I was like….. huuuuh???? Hooow???

[grand mesa]

If you need a cheat sheet for it

here's a code

I also have cheat sheet codes for phase 2

but I'll give it to you when you get there

[valid solar]

why do they put supports south for every position except N/S section where they take the north tower

why not keep them south for those platforms too

[grand mesa]

Because

If you look at it closely

[amber fable]

You will have to change e/w dps posn

[grand mesa]

Dps on west and support north will cleave each other

With the debuff spreads

If they both stand on the usual corners

[amber fable]

Basically be diagonal

In that platform to your co arrow

[grand mesa]

So you flip it on n/s card so people are spread out

[valid solar]

I see

[grand mesa]

Mhm

That's also why the support and dps on the same platform have to be on the far corners of the same square

Or they clip each other with the debuff

[valid solar]

my favorite strategy board is this seemingly innocent folder with the card and the intercard permutation of a mechanic

but when you open the folder after its shared you get stickbugged lol

[grand mesa]

Cus my other friend also wanted to prog M11

[valid solar]

ill join you if you're going now

[valid solar]

whats their prog point

[wicked delta]

They’re basically fresh iirc, though me n Friend™️ could probably drag them all the way to meteorrain in a single lockout

Its just… the other ppl in the party

Gulp…

[grand mesa]

onyo..

[valid solar]

thats perfect

I need to practice melee in m11 and since its m11 its probably best to start fresh to see what greed works and what doesnt

[wicked delta]

Melee spots in M11 so free

[limpid edge]

Should someone feel bad for taking 2 weeks to clear ex6? Im not so sure

Xivdiscussion post

I don't think OP specified if the 2 week guy did it in pf or a group

[grand mesa]

did they specify hours done

[limpid edge]

No but the topic is if he should quit because he's bad, so I assume of lot of time

[grand mesa]

erm

[limpid edge]

I disagree on that tho cuz there are plenty of bad players that can still find enjoyment in the game

[grand mesa]

yeah

[visual geyser]

No?

By the time they clears they’ve learned lessons that would make beating the next EX primal not take nearly as long

[grand mesa]

how are tank and melee players only getting 90% uptime in m12

[rain geode]

because they're losing 10% of their uptime

I 100% trolled the heck out of one pull by Art of waring the middle and just forgetting to move out of the purple xd

[wicked delta]

Okay this may be a stupid question but is there ever a moment in M10S where its more optimal to use holy over just glaring

[valid solar]

nah

holy isnt a gain on 2

[sinful brook]

No probably not unless it's the downtime part after they do the mega attack maybe

[rain geode]

Hoyl isnt a gain on 2 is it?

[valid solar]

glare does 50 more pot than holy on 2 enemies

[wicked delta]

Ok bet

[sinful brook]

If you can time the snap for when they become targetavle

[valid solar]

need 3 or more targets for it to become worth

[sinful brook]

Holy is gain on 3

[wicked delta]

I was just using glare regardless but wanted to make sure

[sinful brook]

If you can time when they come back precast

It's probably the tiniest of gains

[rain geode]

Art of war is a gain on two so I get to have some fun as cleave time

[sinful brook]

Offset by just critting harder

The biggest gain is double dot uptime

[wicked delta]

I got my answer

[grand mesa]

ok.

so

this is

why are you willingly subjecting yourself to more m11s pf

[grand mesa]

I'm not..

but it kickstarted me feeling jaded as hell again this tier

[worn bluff]

it’s time to go back to ulti pf

[valid solar]

think about it this way, all those people wiping on 11 are people you will never have to play with in 12

[grand mesa]

Maybe not

[grand mesa]

A lot of them have been carried to m12 now, unfortunately

[worn bluff]

unless you free them then they will be in your 12 pf

[valid solar]

[grand mesa]

Idk if I want to deal with the cryptids in ulti pf

[worn bluff]

i sometimes feel like browsing pf because FF is one of my default “idk what else to play” games

but idk if i actually enjoy it that much

[valid solar]

I started just watching youtube instead

[grand mesa]

When I start doing that, I just do something else unless I find something I want to do immediately

[worn bluff]

i should go back to studying something

or reading

[grand mesa]

I need to start working on my personal projects again

[worn bluff]

i don’t want to parse or anything so i think i’m done outside of reclears and helping people clear

[grand mesa]

Fair

I just want oranges tbh

[worn bluff]

although it does tickle my brain getting the same number

[grand mesa]

But I'm probably settling with purples unless I get a good party

[worn bluff]

i was happy with purples

it could have been any of the same number and it would tickle my brain the same way

too bad it’s not 67

[grand mesa]

97

[jolly flume]

I kinda wanna push some buttons on 12

but the longer we take to finish reclears

the less I care

we still have like 3 more weeks of splits because we have to feed people gear to role swap

[worn bluff]

i do like 12

but i don’t want to sit in a lockout for that long

i’m going to start going gnb to reclears so i don’t accidentally get a higher number. i like gnb more anyways

i’m not very good at gnb so it’s safe

and i have ex weapon

[jolly flume]

just need one good doorboss kill on a good kt

one of these is not like the others

[remote gate]

did everything burn

[worn bluff]

my 12-2 is lowest

next week will be first time doing it with weapon so we’ll see how it goes

[jolly flume]

I still don't have a 99 on p2 either but I'm willing to blame that one on bis and having to shield everything still bc we have ppl with low 77x in the party

but tbf I dont really care about 99ing that fight anyway

i just wanna overwrite the stupid doorboss historical lol

[worn bluff]

i specifically need a 97

[grand mesa]

You go for a run and get a 100

gg

[worn bluff]

paying 1 mil for 97 if it’s a 100 no one gets paid

[grand mesa]

Can u open a p1 parse party at some point so i can join nd have my rb griefed by my dps anyways

[terse zodiac]

Sorry

[jolly flume]

slots locked sam mnk/nin pct brd or I'm not joining

[worn bluff]

my rotation in 12-1 actually slightly griefs everyone else’s rdps because it’s -4 buff

but if a few people die it’s a higher chance of killing the boss

[jolly flume]

friend did a lecture on fru last night because why not and ct is a really cool mechanic

[low hearth]

mmo mouse helps

[kind elm]

mmo mouse changes nothing

all it does is move your buttons from your left hand to your right

absolutely not necessary in the slightest

[quick verge]

konnichiwagwan minna-slimes

[proper cave]

[kind elm]

i see the ? react, i think saying "mmo mouse helps" is just false

for most people i dont think it changes anything other than which hand youre pressing the buttons with, for some they prefer it on the mouse and for some they dont

just dropping "mmo mouse helps" without any information as to whether or not theyd actually like to play with one is imo kind of a crazy thing to do

[proper cave]

Yet another reason why I don’t often comment on hotbar or keybind/controller set ups. It’s so highly personal. There is no definitive right answer.

[jaunty pulsar]

I was wondering forked tower is considered high end I guess but it's easier than a savage? If so I'm confused bc when I look for forked tower guides on youtube there are several long videos to explain the whole fight, so if you need to learn that much isn't it harder than the average high end?

I guess I'm probably not considering something?

[quick verge]

cause it has ex level fights at a minimum which are high end

[kind elm]

the mechanics are not particularly complex, theres just more bosses than your average savage

its basically like 6 extremes back to back

[quick verge]

its also absurdly punishing which bumps up relative difficulty even if you’d consider the fights easy

[proper cave]

Normal revive tools simply don’t work in there and I think raises are limited? Either way the cost for making mistakes is very steep.

[kind elm]

you can get raised 3 times

the next death after that you can no longer be raised

so if youre progging a fight, you die, get raised, die again

you now only have 1 more res whereas the others have 2 more

which makes progging it kinda frustrating too

debating between staying on floor to prog next pull or getting up to potentially kill

[jaunty pulsar]

well there are groups that organizes it so even if there are mistakes it's not total pf-like I'd say

but for someone that requires a bit of timestudying a guide would you recommend it as a fight?

[kind elm]

the mechanics are simple, the hardest part of progging is tbh getting into a group

[jaunty pulsar]

yes I heard there is a queue but that is not an issue for me

[kind elm]

you can give it a try, note that youll have to prog each fight and section individually so it might take you quite a while to actually get a kill

of the whole raid, i mean

[jaunty pulsar]

I was wondering last but not least will there be an actual reward for mastering all phantom jobs or will it be something done for the "I'm powa" feeling that will be useless by (most likely) the next expansion?

[kind elm]

i believe theres an achievement and title

probably wont be much beyond that

[jaunty pulsar]

I see well the title is something at the least xd

thanks

I believe they should keep this sort of content alive or reward more the effort for level these classes, it takes forever

I feel it's something ppl do because they haven't got something better to do

[kind elm]

you are not particularly alone in the sentiment, but its something they proably wont do

square have never really prioritized keeping old content alive

once an expac/patch is done, stuff mostly dies and stays like that

its unfortunate

[jaunty pulsar]

yep I've been playing a bit gw2 and I'd always choose ffxiv over that game but playing something that is always relevant feels good

but I haven't got a lot of time so I'm focusing on ffxiv now

I'll forgive SE if they give me the second boss of the last DT dungeon as a mount

I've been dreaming of a 1:1 scale mount lately

[worn bluff]

also there is a middle ground i like of “mouse with some extra buttons”

[jolly flume]

mouse with 3-5 side buttons kinda goated

12 just gets in the way for me

[kind elm]

i have an mmo mouse but i use it for runescape rebinding to make skilling easier

[worn bluff]

i use g502 and put my mits/sprint/arms length there

[dull drum]

[worn bluff]

[jaunty pulsar]

yeah I also have a logitech one they're okay

[dull drum]

i have 2 side buttons thats it, i use one for voke and other for buddy mit

[worn bluff]

I'm still on my first g502x but the side grip is like...literally just half gone at this point

[jaunty pulsar]

ngl most stuff is designed to break after warranty xd that's what I think

[kind elm]

thats just factually true

[jaunty pulsar]

wulfie is it unusual to farm occult but don't touch the high end stuff? I like high end but work and studying destroys me in the evening I'm KO ... it's even hard to find the time to do the EXs lately

i farmed occult and barely touched forked

lot of people maxed out occult without touching forked

some ppl just like grinding things

thats fine

I see thanks ^^

my water boiler was installed last year and they have exchanged plastic tubes with iron ones two times, why not install them in the first place?

cuz it's €50 per call to the shopowner

don’t ask wulfie about water boilers

[worn bluff]

yeah it’s just rng on when it breaks. companies hope that their quality is just barely good enough to break after warranty runs out

re: forked it doesn’t really give any meaningful or cool rewards in the same way that ba/drs do

[kind elm]

theres a cool mount and thats about it

[trim frost]

and framing it like a cll/dal type duty but designing it to be anti-pug is just. yeah

ba/drs/forked technically all have field gear augments but drs the only cool one because it makes the judge armor dyeable

ba has The Orb

[jaunty pulsar]

I don't even like the mount for forked

I was hoping for something else in north horn

[trim frost]

they’re planning to make two versions of the magic tower based on feedback

normal and something harder

imo they should’ve just done that for south horn from the get go

[jaunty pulsar]

indeed

btw out of curiosity are there weekend only groups generally?

or is it like savage statics where you need commitment

[trim frost]

idk how it is on eu

theres a guy in aether that frequently does anyprog weekend runs

there’s no reason to have a static for a 48-man duty lol that sounds like a management nightmare

[jaunty pulsar]

I will enquire when north horn is released
