Ok

please do not
erm, oomfie

Idk how ultimates are less intimidating to me than current savage
loud swift
ultis usually have less gremlins in them
dreamy whale
I am the gremlin that’s why I’m scared of savage
loud swift
i need to restock on phoenix downs
dreamy whale
Like wdym the guide everyone uses isn’t xivwiki and it’s a guy named hector who makes videos
loud swift
ive been using them a ton rezzing people in varient dungeons
loud swift
Like wdym the guide everyone uses isn’t xivwiki and it’s a guy named hector who ...
hector my goat
dreamy whale
The videos are very informative I just don’t know how well I’ll be able to internalize it 
loud swift
thats what progging is for
dreamy whale
Maybe I’ll just become a crafter andy…
loud swift
you study the fight, then use what you learn and fight the boss
refer back to when ur confused
rinse and repeat til clear
dreamy whale
“Hey sorry guys I gotta rewatch the last 20 minutes”
loud swift
sometimes you take it section by section
easier to internalize that way
personally. i like to watch the entire thing, then rewatch section by section when progging
so im not entirely blind
easier done with static
why hyper study a part you wont touch for a day or two
dreamy whale
logically speaking ik I won’t get flamed/blacklisted as long as I don’t lie about my progpoint and I don’t ego
loud swift
as long as youre trying your best and admit to your mistakes then like
ur doing a-okay
better than like 90% of people already
ask questions when ur confused
dreamy whale
I learned I shouldn’t trust rotation guide videos
dreamy whale
I got trollged
loud swift
you know wish i could help you but i dont touch black mage with a 5 foot pole
valid solar
Video told me to use b3/f3 in astral fire / umbral ice
first mistake watching a video instead of just reading the balance guide
loud swift
i can help you with dragoon
its a pretty fun job
i do very similar opener when raiding
dreamy whale
Oh
loud swift
smart even if ur not gonna use a pot, dont press anything during that first gcd
jobs will apply their raid buffs at 2nd gcd
yea I’m not playing drg bros
valid solar
i await a gpose
dapper zealot
Video told me to use b3/f3 in astral fire / umbral ice
did it say use b3/f3 in astral/umbral or did it say to use b3/f3 to change states?
dreamy whale
Double weaving on my internet is very sketchy
loud swift
Double weaving on my internet is very sketchy
yeah drg is double weave heavy job
its preferred gcd is 2.50
0 skill speed melds
dapper zealot
am I missing something cause that should be the filler combo
loud swift
you did better than my friend who i did most of the paths with
dreamy whale
am I missing something cause that should be the filler combo
Behold: no transpose
loud swift
lot of the optional path stuff is hard to find
dapper zealot
oh transpose lol
loud swift
i'll show u tomorrow if youre on
dreamy whale
I just assumed since b3/f3 were faster if you were in the opposite stance it was better
Evidently not
dapper zealot
It is
dreamy whale
dapper zealot
You paradox for firestarter, then tranpose to go to astral 3 so that f3 is higher damage
dapper zealot
What did it say?
dreamy whale
Ts too confusing imma be a limsa crafter andy
dreamy whale
dapper zealot
yeah you just didn't transpose
dapper zealot
cause normally you would b3/f3 to swap stances, but at 90+ paradox gaurantees firestarter, so you tranpose from umbral 3 to astral 3 so that f3 has higher damage
also just watch weskalber
grand mesa
I miss old blm
dapper zealot
was tranpose used in 7.0/1 rotation?
dreamy whale
So should it be this
dapper zealot
!faq blmleveling
storm frostBOT
dapper zealot
yes
loud swift
The more u practice ur job the better u get
I used to be dogshit at dragoon until I practiced my rotation a ton on like. A training dummy
dreamy whale
Ik but it’s scary to think about people talking about me even tho realistically speaking ts not gonna happen unless I get an ego about it
loud swift
Constantly messing up my rotation, messing up the order of my combo (its a lot of buttons), etc.
loud swift
Ik but it’s scary to think about people talking about me even tho realistically ...
people'll do that regardless
dreamy whale
Like when I was upset about that tank in amdapor keep what if they get upset at me you feel me
loud swift
dont let it get to ur head
it applies even outside of ffxiv
people will talk behind ur back
dreamy whale
Cooked
loud swift
and the best thing u can do is shrug it off and keep going
cuz yeah ppl are rude
but as long as ur getting better and enjoying urself, then what say do they have
dreamy whale
That’s why I don’t leave my house unless it’s for work 
loud swift
anyone can do savage, u just gotta take a deep breath and understand that its ok to mess up
just learn from ur mistakes :D
loud swift
gotcha
trim frost
is it just me or do the bosses feel like they have really high hp
loud swift
variant or criterion
trim frost
variant
loud swift
they scale pretty heavy with other people
trim frost
i did one solo run bc i wanted a specific path and it felt like it took fucking forever to get through the bosses
loud swift
it didnt feel too different from the other variant dungeons
their hp pool
theyre just kinda naturally bulky
if ur playing healer then gl
trim frost
i was on war bc i didn’t wanna eat shit to mechanics i hadn’t seen before
loud swift
any tank should be fine
with variant cure you can just go from 0 to max in 2-3 gcds
on tank i personally like cure and spirit dart
solo it is required you have cure
trim frost
yeah i know
i’m not saying it’s not doable
it just takes weirdly long compared to how it felt when i was doing solo runs of ew variants recently for mogtomes
loud swift
i remember it taking around the same time
valid solar
is it just me or do the bosses feel like they have really high hp
thats probably because the previous variants had an ilevel cap of 60 higher than their minimum, while this one is set to 765 only
loud swift
but idk its been a while
trim frost
maybe yeah
valid solar
this was alo and rokkan
trim frost
this one fixes you to 765 right
valid solar
yep
loud swift
yup
trim frost
cringe
valid solar
forced to 765, cannot outgear
trim frost
makes sense
but it is kinda funny how it feels like the mobs just fall over instantly and then you have to hit a sponge for 8 minutes
thin fox
yeah soloing the bosses was pretty awful in the other variants too
wanton iris
Are there any bosses similar to that fuckass geometry boss in aloalo

So having to clear aloalo was an over sight?
odd beacon
yea
visual geyser
Nice
jade nimbus
Lmao
visual geyser
I think it’s a good reward to have
Just wish they made new weapon glows on top of it and it would’ve been perfect rewards :/
jade nimbus
You can just clear advanced now then?
visual geyser
No
They haven’t implemented the fix yet
But when they do you’ll be able to just farm advanced
lyric summit
just clear aloalo its good
loud nymph
wait I'm confused
are they saying that after the hotfix NPC will show up even if you haven't done aloalo at all
valid solar
hi confused im bungo
lyric summit
its just another upgrade menu at the endwalker tome gear upgrade guy
which currently requires another aloalo completion
valid solar
are they saying that after the hotfix NPC will show up even if you haven't done ...
this seems to suggest that kaldine will show up regardless if you cleared criterion or not
loud nymph
that's what I was confused about because if that's true it'll make the exquisite glows available regardless of aloalo progress
valid solar
its just another upgrade menu at the endwalker tome gear upgrade guy
oh I didnt realize its the same person 
yes
loud nymph
well that's neat I guess
valid solar
which appears to be intended
lyric summit
yeah because merchant's tale drops the same upgrade item as alo
but they forgot to make merchant's tale unlock the trade menu for it
lyric summit
probably jp lodestone

the advanced version of merchants tale (which I think is where this material drops from ?) is queueable right

I felt like that was the intention from the beginning
seemed like a pretty obvious oversight
dreamy whale
Chiyo I got shared some meme strategy boards
Ok ts not gonna fill time to stop being a baby and get into M9S
quick flame
So how hard is variant advanced? Is it closer to extreme or low savage?
worn bluff
there are some things like grabbing tethers and different people needing to stack vs spread based on debuffs
that you won’t see in normal mode content
quick flame
So like pilgrim’s traverse boss level basically
worn bluff
similar to that yeah, a little harder i would say
the other thing is you have variant actions so you can zombie through the fight if people have raise and cure equipped
thin fox
the swordmaster advanced is kinda annoying

so is the reward for clearing all paths just an eye mask? or am i missing sum? i heard we get a mount?

worn bluff
that one arrowslop mechanic was horrible for me
the one w the four quadrants?
worn bluff
i found it easier to look for gaps in the wall instead of looking at the floor
sleek moon
i CANT even see which quadrant is hitting which side when its so many fucking arrows, and apparently it gets worse in criterion
dreamy whale
Im so eepy but I have 2 people in this pf already I don’t wanna troll them 
dreamy whale
Alukah what do I do
thin fox
all the m10 parties up are double melee
sleek moon
grab some dude and do 2 man clear, its fun
thin fox
fuck me man
thin fox
whats even meta for 2 player
dreamy whale
Do I nap and bring the pf back up later or do I suck it up
sleek moon
and dip
dreamy whale
Ohg
thin fox
is it just tank + dps
thin fox
i feel like sword has to be objectively easier with two people
sleek moon
i did tank + dps but tank takes increased dmg from raidwides there so idk how useful is tank lmao
thin fox
because theres fewer puddles being baited everywhere
jolly flume
lost cure goes insane
grand mesa
Lost cure is NUTS
sleek moon
tank is just as squishy as dps but doesnt do as much dmg
jolly flume
or variant cure? whatever it's called

i ignore the floor and face my camera towards my red sides, and look for the parts of the wall that have no red thing shooting at me
sleek moon
ngl i didnt even look at walls at any point in that fight
i just looked at the ground lol
gonna try that next time
worn bluff
looking at the floor sucks
sleek moon
but yeah i saw that arrowslop also has the targeted aoe line arrow as well in criterion
zealous meteor
if i wanted to look at the floor i would just 
sleek moon
i will say for 2 man i do recommend one person to be ranged
a lot of mechs require splitting
dreamy whale
Making my own pf also too much responsibility
sleek moon
and if you do 2 melees one of you will be very sad
thin fox
i mean advanced has no enrage so
dreamy whale
If I join the pf I am just one of the randoms
thin fox
it doesnt rly matter
sleek moon
its not about enrage, its about it sucks to fuck up your rotation every other mechanic
dreamy whale
If I make it I’m the one who has to have it together
sleek moon
it aint fun

this is the craziest lock i have ever seen in my whole life

i would assume 1 melee 1 range is fine, but i did it pld picto
zealous meteor
we can both play monk and BOTH be sad
sleek moon
the busters somehow hit for less than the raidwides on tank
thin fox
yeah the busters do nothing
sleek moon
gonna try 3 man later and i wonder how that's gonna change mechs
rain geode
this is the craziest lock i have ever seen in my whole life
that has to be an accident

i CANT even see which quadrant is hitting which side when its so many fucking ar...
Its so bad lmao
Unironically the worst visual in this entire game
sleek moon
so apparently number of tethers and debuff durations and stuff like that changes based on number of party members
the tether from fire boss has a shorter debuff duration in 2 man
and increases in 3 and 4 man
jolly flume
my two years of playing osu with hit effects on prepared me for this
worn bluff
the arrows on the floor for the quadrant one are just noise
just look at the blades on the side of the arena
worn bluff
they spent their time making that floor instead of effects for new weapons

so is there savage or how does it work now
There is no savage, there is variant, advanced variant, and criterion

is that just renamed from old variant/criterion/ savage then?
jagged aspen
isnt that pretty easy then? or what kind of difficulty

criterion is same as non-savage criterion

criterion is the same as old criterion but they also took the trash pulls out iirc
for reasons that defy understanding

how much currency do you get from advanced

4 brass per clear and there's a chest at the end with 4 free for all rolls
so you can get up to 4 extras but people are generally trying to give 1 each to people
sick dirge
im too lazy to check rn but what can you buy with the brass
i remember there being a minion and some accessories
devout wraith
bruh so they really just forgot to turn on the exquisite weapon vendor huh
they really meant for even the aloalo criterion normal mode to be worthless after all
what a rug pull

ive heard its compared to an easy ex or early savage, now its a harder dungeon boss? what the heck lol
devout wraith
no role requirement?
jagged aspen
using early savage as a metric when p5s exists
worn bluff
i mean i guess if you look at m9s it’s got similar mechanic difficulty, but m9s is basically an extreme
thin fox
are the criterion divebombs placed on the tiles youre on or just where youre standing
visual geyser
no role req
thin fox
just go watch a video
sick dirge
advanced just requires at least 2 people to enter
jagged aspen
a harder dungeon boss and a easy ex are the same thing
well, youre not pulling your weight in any ex first pull if you go in blind. theres very few dungeon bosses where you can grief
devout wraith
so calling it a harder dungeon boss kinda implies its not even comparable to at least arcadion normal raid xD
visual geyser
you can spam heals and res
worn bluff
it’s a step up from an alliance raid boss

jesus christ

so basically lower end extreme

jagged aspen
just ask for cover
worn bluff
i think it was only doable in one pattern
but the mentors decided to code it assuming you get that pattern
grand mesa
you cant live it?
If you take any sort of dmg you get debuffed with something that stops your movement and forces you to get eaten at the end of the mechanix
Iirc
jagged aspen
doesnt xiva almost always assume you use stuff off cd
grand mesa
i think it was only doable in one pattern
It was 2/4/2 and you had to sit in the south-ish- assuming north is the puddle he starts in
worn bluff
harvest moon is probably a manual counter they put because in full uptime you only get 1
grand mesa
If it's 4/4 you get clipped bc he doesn't back around after the 2nd jump
worn bluff
so they would have to adjust it for any known downtime
devour was a good mechanic
we should have gotten that instead of orbital omen

if you get caught tyrant just eats you

Do not
Understand snapshots in this game
jagged aspen
ye but i always did it on the D waymark since i found out it goes thru if
grand mesa
They move too soon and call bullshit when they obviously got hit by a snapshot that hits at the same time every pull
Or too late
jagged aspen
no snapshots involved either
grand mesa
no snapshots involved either
I play on 171 ping and I have to "feel" the snapshot either way
jagged aspen
you just press W when the line in front of u hits
worn bluff
tbh the most surprising thing in 11 reclears is just when arena split goes off and no one dies
grand mesa
you just press W when the line in front of u hits
This fucking kills you if your pixel is close enough to the edge btw

i was fine on my na alt, idk how much ping makes it an issue
wicked delta
I start moving before the castbar even ends and I have only gotten a dd like once in a good while

like looking at the party list and not seeing any 0 HP

It really is just end of castbar
Not before
Just understand that your character has travel time
And adjust for that

i remember week 1 people here were saying "it's literally not possible to move back too quickly" which is not true
like people were saying to go instantly, take a step across, and immediately step back
if your ping is low enough you will get hit

People do not understand snapshots

It just means your pixel wasn't close enough to the center

Again
worn bluff
i move based on when the boss starts moving
jagged aspen
i dont look for first laser, i just dodge whatever is on my marker
so sometimes its not the first to go off and castbar is useless
grand mesa
Most people will effectively be moving before castbar finishes, but you need to understand that it snapshots at the end of the castbar and that "moving when castbar hits x" is not reliable advice when everyone positions themselves against the edge of the cleaves differently
Is the point I'm making.
worn bluff
i should prob make a short mit <2> macro. it's kind of annoying to mouseover MT with short mit while dodging orbital
worn bluff
i haven't had an issue it's just tedious
grand mesa
Specially when the mt inevitably eats shit
daring pine
i move based on when the boss starts moving
yeah same
worn bluff
bc the autos start right away

and i'm PLD so i need that sweet 4s bonus

I'm not saying you can't or shouldn't move before the end of the castbar
worn bluff
DRK you can TBN before the lines go off
jagged aspen

yea <2> is what i use 95% of the time anyway
grand mesa
It doesn't snapshot before end of castbar like some ppl imply
Anyways
If I had a dollar for the amount of times I've had to heal an mt with flash heals after they take two orbitals, survive and barely don't die to an auto
I'd probably have a few dollars
Maybe enough for a few meals
grand mesa
It's end of castbar
uncut pebble
i mean i guess if you look at m9s it’s got similar mechanic difficulty, but m9s ...
did he just... say his last name was... burger?

There’s very few non-castbar snaps
grand mesa
I'm just tired of explaining to ppl that want to imply that it somehow happens before that
naive leaf
Does ground telegraph always match cast bar snapshot timing?
grand mesa
The visual?
naive leaf
Yeah
grand mesa
No, but it gets close if you're on super low ping
naive leaf
(I acknowledge many boss mechs don't have telegraphs)
grand mesa
I play on 171 and vibe everything out
naive leaf
I see
grand mesa
I basically have to move into the cleaves before they happen sometimes
But
The castbar is the one constant I have as someone that plays on consistently high ping
daring pine

You can manually ping the server ips
And figure out what latency you get

I don't think I've had "have my pixel move past the boundary of where I have to move as soon as the castbar ends" fail on me yet
Unless the mechanic resolving is intentionally untethered or delayed from the end of the castbar
In which case

I'm moving based off vibes

I think the only castbar in the game that snapshots early is stillness during TEA P4
That, or the mechanic doesn't work the way I think it does
