Rob them?
i've been trying to poach one of my healer friends for a static for like the last year
but he just doesn't gaf about the game unless it's criterion
based
Not based bc criterion is bad now 
where trash
Why did they release sts2 right when criterion came out
How am I supposed to get motivation to try it out
same question but wow midnight
sts2 is just EA so you can delay it longer 
Well
AST is more fun than i thought
But its very clicky and choose your target fast
But i like the cards and the effects and animations
there was someone trying to get 2 chest M12 clear in the late weekday morning yesterday and they said “checking passports”
bro no one is even around be less picky if you want a fill
they just sat at 1/8
xDDD
Funny creatures
that static yseterday that tried to loot master 0 reward m12s did infact not end up clearing
In the trash where it belongs 
yoo they're visiting my home?
so they didn’t offer anything better than an average PF what a surprise 
truge
i’ve seen statics try that early weeks on tuesday reclears too
like “people normally pay 5-10M right now but we all know each other so that’s worth getting nothing”
They let the opps win
It's all over, until next time
its funny that they think they're soooooooo good you should give up your loot just to play with them
mb
dunno if that even fills ngl
Might gotta do a book run …
Eh there's gotta be a some people who couldn't do their run during the week
God it really does feel like If you can play Tuesdays you might as well not even play the game
well thats a bit extreme
it’s definitely tougher but some people do wait til weekend
you might get some people who don’t care anymore and decide to hop on the weekend to do their reclear
"It's for my alt jobs that I'm never going to play until leveling for the next expansion bro"
"It'll give me a headstart on gear bro!"
Man I only have time for 1 character

I wanna make an alt but I can't justify paying for a skip just to raid
And I dont wanna replay msq
Hand leveled account
If I end up raiding in 8.0 I'll probably pre-make the alt in 7.5
i think it’s usually like the static has a loot table and they refuse to have to change it if one person is out
so if the random fill gets it they madge
They might not be the people you would want to play with 
but they’re too cheap to pay the random too
I'm under the impression most people I'd "want" to play with already have cleared and got their bis and aren't playing anymore lel
i’ve thought about making an alt to be able to do late 2 chest with friends but i also don’t know if i’d want to gear characters twice
I still need 3 more augments 
I need 2 more things from m10s then everything from m11s and m12s
So that's 2 things from m11s and the weapon from m12s is I'm not mistaken
That m11s stuff is expensive asf
I'll just lucky ez
Also if I'm really lazy I could just get the legs and wait for 7.5
Wtaf lol bapp
yes
I assume

i would help people 2chest but everybody hate me
Tbh they should just accept that the random might get gear and just go again next week with the full group
Yeah there's a world we're I just stop doing m10s reclears early and trade books for boots and wait til 7.5 to augment my bracelet
is 10 luck that bad
the fact that they’re trying to offer nothing gives me vibes that they prob get other stuff wrong in instance
My 10 luck has been amazing it's just just doing m10s reclears is so soul draining I havnt played in like a month
Oh yeah it's awful
Just complete the tier
I typically go through about 7-10 groups before I find one I feel can clear
dam
Reclears arent needed once you do the tier and you dont wanna do ult really
The critical part of me asks the obvious question which is "am I the problem"
Then I find a group that I feel can do it and we clear in 1-2 pulls
reclears arent necessary -> play not ffxiv pipeline
10 is chill
video games are boring tbh lets go spelunking
cave diving
Cave
what if we held hands at the bottom of the mariana trench
I think we would be crushed by the water pressure
Arena split might be a hard ass mechanic for healers
It's annoying but nothing I can't handle

crazy
nice photoshop
i don’t really alt job so i’m basically good w one set of bis. but keep doing reclears in case friends need gear, or to collect books in case
are you free for an m11 book run
why you doin book now 
the 2 chest parties I joined today were cooked
so might as well book run before I get back to 12 prog
don’t be a book Andy bro
i just close my eyes and say i lost all my rolls whenever i have to book run something
I cleared m11 like 4 times but ive yet to win a single roll so
statistically I wouldnt have won this week either
They’ve been cooked all week lowkenuinly
naw you were due bro /s
Those legs are cursed 
Yes i showed you losing all my rolls remember
my bad man
And you asked if I won the solvent
would you like to show up for the book run anyways
my memory sucks i only remember stuff related to me because i'm a narcissist
🥹
1 less person I need to gamble on
Strange I thought all the bad players get all the loot
DAMN

They did
Nah show your parse yo
That's like asking for a face reveal bro
I did already
I can’t talk I be netting straight blues
Good enough to clear
.
M11s is so hard and people are still doing 0 6 10:30 week 9
You know what would make time even more toxic
If they added a parse number where everyone has to be above to clear
well then that parse number would be 0
Would they give us government mandated logs in that timeline
well no because the people who got 0's prob had other people picking up the slack
lemme try it with 10 percentile
Oh I didn’t answer this but if you need me to come I can
would appreciate it
assuming the comp is pld/drk/whm/sch/mnk/drg/brd/pct lets see what we get
also im online
i just do 0 5 and then if things go to shit i’ll hold for whenever everyone else buffs at the end
by any chance are you also free for a book run niko
The issue would be 1st group clears they all have 100, 2nd group would need everyone beating them to clear or thet get 0, but its a silly hypothetical
They could put individual specific dps checks tho
not at the moment
gotta go out for errands soon. but maybe later tn
oh gg
22.5k + 22.4k + 17.4k + 17.5k + 35.8k + 36.1k + 34.7k + 34,8k = 221k
it enrages even in a clean pull
so a party full of 10 parses cannot clear m11s
- lb3 + lb2
can I be so fr
if theyre all 10 parsers theyre probably wiping to mechanics before they even hit enrage
ability to do damage is pretty strongly correlated with ability to do mechanics lol
rip
iirc its 235k? to beat enrage
the pf is up so feel free to join when you're on
one time we got a median 5ish dps at phase 1 enrage and were trying to help them get to phase 2 but it was too hard
would have been doable with no death but they were making mistakes too
Well the reason theyre getting 5 is probably deaths
Very hard to low digit grey without completely playing wrong unless youre dying
i think they were low gray with 0 death type of person
we still tried tho bc we were trying to prog early phase 2 so as long as we got to phase 2 it was w/e
Low grey with no death players are very funny
Flashbacks to that one machinist that plays ex trials but only presses 1 button
even then grey is like I died 2-3 times territory 💀
Mb culture is out of hand here one day its actually gonna be an mb and nobody will know 
???????
like
only the 1 of their 123 combo????
Yes
????????????????????????????
we’re protecting everyone from toxicity
wholesome
it's me I'm toxicity
They might be good yo
Aye
finally cleared p1, group barely scraped over the line 🙃
low gcd uptime is usually the biggest culprit. i def know people who don’t roll their gcd but pick up mechanics decently quickly
some people get the gcd uptime thing down quickly but esp if you’re not used to this kind of game it sometimes takes time to get comfortable with it
I dont think ive ever run into those in endgame minus like healers doing 70% uptime and even those are green, i cant imagine a low grey 
Wanna ask here cause I'm confused:
I've genuinely cleared a savage this week. The book, gear, and all stuff received from (lets say) m9s cannot be recleared again this week right?
If you’ve cleared a floor once, you can’t get any drops from it again for the rest of the week.
1 chest runs exist technically but yeah general rule of thumb you can only loot once a week
so since reset is usually on Tuesday. I can get the one chest drop starting Tuesday, correct?
*2 chest but yes
Ahh okay thank you that makes a lot of sense now
The 2 chest 1 chest thing is from my understanding slang based in the fact that it used to spawn multiple chests. "Full loot" and "half loot" are probably more technically correct now that it only ever spawns on chest regardless
Or maybe "partial loot" I forget if it's actually half
I don't care but it is worth explaining I feel
well like for example my SO is a sprout and gave endgame a short try, and enjoyed progging mechanics. but as she learned about dps rotation etc she decided it wasn’t for her and she would rather do something else with her time and brain space which is totally fair
I play two different games where split means very different things so whatever terminology I'll use it I don't care
it might just be who you happen to know but i know a fair amount of people who are smart and good at other video games but they just don’t spend that much time in FF to bother improving in this one game
Me with two games:
Well
Yeah ofc thats fair i just feel its much more common for a grey to be results of deaths bc pf is full of deaths, ofc they gonna have low parses
except im more so trynna improve on ff though
mb
i mean if you stick a sprout who hasn’t really been working on gcd uptime into savage with full crafted
even on healer
it’s likely going to happen
just press glare bro 😭
would just come down to if your gcd downtime/rotation mistakes give you the same damage loss as 1/2 deaths
deaths are pretty catastrophic
I guess it's not like anybody runs it anymore but I'm kinda surprised my doom train purples are still purple
.-.
when someone is having issues with a msq duty or whatever I usually check YT vids to get a refresher on the duty, and the majority of people uploading msq videos do like 1 gcd every 4s
if they have to dodge they dont dodge while hitting a button
they fully stop hitting buttons
i do that too thoughts
Whenever I'm moving I'm casting AoE on enemies
Oh wow my last m10s completetion was Feb 2 I might actually need to derust for one book clear lmao
next time you do trial roulette or some other single boss fights, put the log in xivanalysis and check the lowest dps people
their uptime is atrocious
i mean it’s all relative. happens in lots of games people go “how is it possible for someone to not know the basics”
sometimes people just don’t play the game enough to learn the basics, or didn’t care enough to learn them
it’s not like they’re not capable of it
Started progging UWU this is lowkey fun
I’m lowkey flopping as MT but I’m having fun
Currently P1 sisters but still cleaning up spiny
It’s chill
Endgame is end of the game
It could be a case of learning how to play the wrong way and it stuck with them for so long, it's difficult to relearn
yeah a lot is habits
Even multi-year vets msq andies could get away with 50% uptime cuz they can , no incentive to get better
also a lot of people don’t really follow guides in games or get feedback
mb
I try not to follow guides if I'm playing for first time
Just for the blind experience
But ff14 was rather overwhelming information wise so I looked up what I could do to make it stuff easier to follow
So many things ff14 also doesn't teach ingame
Not easy for most people to just figure out to play properly
i mean even giving feedback like when i was trying to teach my SO good habits i think i overwhelmed her to where she wasn’t interested in it anymore lol
like i should have mostly focused on just gcd uptime to start
but then i went into avoiding triple weaving etc which is still important but makes way less of a difference if you do it sometimes
and she felt less interested in all of the little things so she was like nah i’m good i’ll play other games
real
I just teach my casual friends enough to get them to a point where I can carry them through whatever content we are doing and I don't ask for more than that.
mt isnt uniquely difficult tbh
you just mit autos
ot should also mit autos on the mt anyways
literally all you do differently on mt is go to a different lp
if you can do m10 as an ot you can do it as an mt
Them autos be hurting 
being concerned about learning it's a sign that someone can become great, it is supposed to take practice and some effort
mit autos by being more geared
mit autos by turning off your stance so the ot gets hit instead
so what you're saying ... tanks should be tanks and take less damage (full tenacity build), healers should heal more (full determination/crit with no direct hit) and dps should dps (what they normally run)?
what
Full tenacity might be the move
Huh?
nothing is stopping tanks from being tanks when they meld not tenacity
yeah instead of doing 26k dps, you'd do 25k dps with 23% mits and the dps can make up your lack of dps, sounds good

in fact the fact that you're so adverse to pressing your mits until next expansion is more reflective of you playing poorly than anything tbh
i tired reading that and my brain lwkey buffered there a bit
in a lot of week 1 and world race situations
the loss of melding full ten actually counts on making checks lol
if your party has to "make up for" your lack of anything that's not really a good thing !
there’s something that tanks can do to take less damage it’s called using their kit
not to mention that you don't lose anything simply for just doing more damage
I dunno I usually have to make up for my parties lack of cuteness
don't join parties with ugly characters
get into full lala parties
Why didn’t I think of that
rude
I helped some people clear FRU literally just because they had cute femras
Also if you kill the boss faster it hits you less
I know I'm in a minority but.. I think tanks and healers don't need to go 100% dps build to make up for a dps death during the fight just to clear
wait that was me

depends how you define 100% dps build
cause if you mean min piety then no thats not necessary
What if you enrage bro
That 1k might’ve made a difference
you can't enrage if everyone lives and has 95+% uptime?
is it possible to clear with full tenacity build? sure but you’re not really gaining anything you’re basically doing a challenge run by purposely running lower dps
huh
But why do you need tenacity 
sorry i thought the tenacity thing was a joke
i don’t know what the point being made here is
was someone being serious
it is a joke, going full tenacity is bad xD
but some tenacity? not always bad in my opinion
uh
Can remove full and your statement is still correct
i mean i guess
even if it's daft as all hell
with 0 ten, you'r eprobably exchanging your dps for the healer if they have to pop extra heals to keep you up?
not really no
in most fights tanks rarely die to damage, and if they did it’s usually a mit problem you need to fix anyways
because if you press the buttons on your screen then nobody is at any deficit
I slot tenacity materia in my dps gear to help the healers out
or they need to switch off war
weird bug
the only reason you would be putting healers at a disadvantage is you don't use your mits properly
but tanks have a lot of these buttons
what content are we talking about here
that reduce the damage they take
I mean you literally said "unfortunately I have to press my mit for autos before act 2 because my healers just want to dps"
you should try healing sometime, it might be the only way to convince you that a healer doesn't plan around tanks having or not having tenacity
and they come back frequently enough
the extra heals should be your own
that you can use them to stop taking so much damage
I mean between two healers keeping the tank up with ogcds should be fairly easy
press your mit and your healers won't have to work extra
in heavy damage scenarios
no hes been totally serious about it
. we're talking about m12s? good grief
whenever i see someone die to mortal slayer in a stream it’s always a WAR
“if i go full tenacity then i can hit no mits during meteorrain”
type of people in pf i guess
like wtf
Swap to gunbreaker
fascinating people in this video game
you should’ve seen me die to mortal slayer yesterday because i didn’t oblation in time lmao
fox confession: until a few days ago i thought HoC was "Heart of Conundrum"
it's corundum
it was a joke but to be fair 1000 tenacity is about 8% mitigation
our drk yesterday died before 2nd mortal slayer and didnt have mp for tbn
your mistake is wondering how a heart of stone becomes a heart of confusion
oh was it bc you don’t invuln snake head? i usually don’t intervention cotank for slayer 2 bc we invuln snake head
i did
i just realized
i always thought the name was really weird
Healer diff
yeah i sink except use short on squishies
in my defense it was my first time getting there in like 1.5 months so i forgor
Press benison
it’s all good lol
1 😭
i died after bc i was looking at your dead body lmao
tbh he didnt say it in vc until it was his turn
he just said "im gonna die" 2s before he died
and then said no mp for tbn
He could’ve done the 40% + short ngl
make ur drks carry super ethers kids
res invuln mit
goes through it
hm so maybe the problem all along was dpses blowing up before enrage and tanks/healers carrying them through and not the tank/healer build 🤔 , nah I'm just being feisty, it's saturday - game night yee o// tc
I hate games
yee true
Not usually at least
That only happens when I'm in the pf
How long does oblation last
10s… i just didn’t press it in time bc i forgot😭
Ah
If ur 2-4
You can pretty much just press it after first one hits and it covers 2-4
i knowwww i did it right the first time
i’ll fix it in the reclear i promise
Well, that happening wasn't a joke
But I don't actually care that it happened if you actually still feel bad abt it
As long as ur learning xo
Also
U can ramp as soon as the castbar for mortal appears iirc
15s mits halfway into cast
Cast is 10s, 1-4 orbs is another 10
ye that’s what i do

How do I remove my sinuses completely from my body
Idk why pf tanks wait so long to press ramp
it was slayer 2 i just assume healers will ignore us for that one
we have everything it’s fine
Fair
Though
If you say you need help
I will throw u an exalt and CI
Should be equiv to a 15%
i ramp 40 bulwark there since there are no other tank things left in the fight
and intervention someone else
give magical dps a short mit in case of 3x kb and they fail parry check
i switched to normal opener so my 30s comes up right before 1st hit on slayer 1. so i need to pop 90 either before or after
before if first hit, otherwise after
oh in other news my p2 did lock in as a 67
Give every job a 40% that lasts 2 seconds
need two weave slots for intervention/sheltron so i can get bonus mit on both tanks if we’re same hit
press shake 2 seconds after damnation there you go
now you can never get higher than 67
don’t intend to because i’m #washed
holy cow there is a horrendous sphene "farm" group up
it's just the inverse law of item level again
i wonder what ugly nostalgia bait mount it will be this time
the more ilvl you outscale the content by, the proportionally worse the players are gonna be
what, you didn't like scoliosis bahamut?
“wow where did you get that bahamut mount?” - no one
im thinkin sephiroth 1 wing
we need more cute mounts
yeah
I dual main axolotl and the mogstation cat
was gonna say prob something sephiroth related
axolotl and yan for me
cute mounts do NOT belong to raiders
bahamut wings are a possibility ig
jenova was the bad guy all along
ur a cute mount
i look like this
elmo
y was a strat called elmo
The raidplan had elmo images in the nados
EW raids had pretty good mounts. idk what happened in DT
I liked the Apocryphal Bahamut mount
yan should have been the cruiserweight mount
Tbh
imagine how mad people woulda been if it was the yan
giant bomb for LHW
I think people would love it in retrospect
No way they locked the Yan mount behind savage 
Or hate it if you don't do savage ig
HW mount should be your character wearing the snek on ground and then it turns into the bigger snek in the air
i wish i did p8 when it was current
Elmos world
casuals who never even did savage pretending to be fans of the yans smh
mb
but its so cute....
they are satan incarnate
i moreso hate the jabbas more than the yan
simple glam
how do people generally resolve alluring order in advanced
its kinda pissing me off
brain cells

i've not touched ff14 since reclears and a folllowing migraine incident that involve puking out meds again
what's alluring
sickness is the ultimate killer of motivation
I got super sick early on for like 2 weeks and ever since then Ive been getting hit with constant random bouts of tiredness
from what ive read people pick a corner and just get there in some way lol
i personally solve it by dropping aoes from middle to a cardinal, and then forced march to my intercardinal
oh its that mech, the forced march is kinda short so I usually just winged it
wiped huh
Wiped and left
advanced swordmaster 
Easy fight
Just take the vuln stack on that one mechanic
So you only have to dodge 1 direction
what mechanic
And the rest is free
The mech where you have to hid your hole from 2 positions
If you get hit by the same marker twice you get a vuln stack and only need to dodge 1
You’ll have to heal bot after tho
gonna need to do advanced more. this is my first time (blind) diving into it
lowkey felt like a burden with every stupid death even though it was a practice group 
sildihn ez
only remotely difficult boss of sildihn is last one and that one has a cheese strat
Yo we see it bro
Lmaoo
Bro made a Krabby Patty 💔🥀
arrowslop mechanic
i eat the vuln south and start whichever south side is safe
and then move cw or ccw depending on which one is safe
still a small chance of it turning into a mess
crafted weapon btw for people who say gear is why theyre grey frfr
dped to the pct
9s

yea my fully crafted alt also hit some greens
so even less than wk1 gear
ppl be coping fr
almost blue even
ye its my ninja char so fracted left side, but 790 right side
Pretty sure some of my week 2-3 clears are still technically blues
first run lol
pretty much all my week 1/2 kills that didn't have deaths are still 60+ lol
hey bapple can i have cart mount
oic
although i made back like 10m w a couple of c41s last week
if i pay you in umamusume art will you clear me
what about endfield art
you won't catch me playing yhe game but i will share its art
I'm a bit of a chenjoyer myself
lycia
I have art in my bookmarks of her laying eggs

do you have like a minute of spare time

Wouldn’t a kingdom hearts alliance collab for 8.0 be cool?
I don’t know about the disney part but it could done with original material
That's the problem. Even the original stuff count as Disney properties
Yoshida has said before that he straight just doesn't want to deal with the bureaucracy needed to pull that off
How many people here even like the FF11 collab
FF11 is growing again
Like they've had to seal off a handful of servers due to congestion
So a lot apparently
11 is lit
i played 11 and didn’t care too much about the 11 collab
there’s not that much i miss about those characters
nuh uh
Modern MMOs have moved so far away from what made the genre unique and special to begin with that people are craving the old style more and more
Not that there's anything wrong with what WoW and XIV are now, I'm playing XIV after all. But there's definitely an itch they don't scratch anymore that some of the older ones still do
which older ones are you refering to?
None in particular, more generally speaking. There are different habits in game design now than there used to be, the differences between FFXI and FFXIV showing just some of those trends
imo nothing come close to everquest2 in its hayday
It's funny how relatively close to each other's release EQ1 and 2 ended up being, looking back.
Yet they're quite different games
eq2 bard was the best bard in any game ever
yeah old mmos just wanted you to play as a community in general
I used to play a korean mmo as a kid
sure you could play "solo" but you still had to rely on other people so you could do so, like buffers
and there was an overall xp bonus the more ppl you had in your party
This
MMOs are trending less towards [Massive Multiplayer Online] and more towards [Solo, I'm Scared of Community Interaction, Please Give Me Trusts]

Community has never felt more disjointed or even nonexistent.
You matchmake into content or just run it with trusts
No sense of world chat or community interaction outside of one or two specific zones
FFXIV specifically has an issue with the zones of this game meaning and having nothing within them
even raiding is just a few friends theres no interaction outside of a couple of the same people
Being solely a backdrop for quests
Barely any rep grinds, no reason to interact with a zone long term, jo more than like 5 players in an open world zone at any time
No meta quests that demand you vibe or grind within zones
No sense of overarching goals beyond just gearing
Like I could point to something like GW2 and masteries [and even if I hate that system for diffrent reasons] it gives players a reason to stay in a zone
I still hop into EverQuest when I want old school MMO. Graphics are tough to deal with though. They didn’t age well.
It gives a reason for players to share info
It gives a reason for players to exist in the same zone and work together via the heart POIs

Tbh only time I even seen exploration matter in MMOs was for EXP and maybe tiny cosmetic rewards
fasrming openworld bosses on timers in EQ was everything
But that was for MapleStory2 and Tree of Savior...
gestures to one of my first/favorite MMOs Wildstar
Which had its BIS/raid ready weapons
Be solely from rare mob drops
So you had to be in the zones, farming
To get 500 cool guy shards
But I absolutely agree there should be more reasons to be in a zone
if they remastered graphics and such on EQ2 and relaunched it .... it would be wildly popular
To get the cool guy weapons
Or better reasons to grind
And then we add trusts because people are scared of person to person interaction

Why are we even playing an MMO
And they added it while also already having Squadrons
Which.... is one decision
Real smart indeed
msq is good but sooo solo should be able to be done in groups for shared experiences
Other things old MMOs also do well
Is scale
The world feels big
Just because of how restictive fast travel can be
Now you can just press on a quest get told where the nearest fast TP point is and then click again so it'll auto walk you to the NPC like it's some crap mobile korean RPG

ngl sometimes I feel nostalgic for lineage 2 (the kmmo I mentioned earlier)
there's a private server project for it that's incredibly well received and I kinda miss playing on it
Modern MMOs have strayed so far from what makes the MMO an MMO
It's all about them instanced duties
And only giving a crap about proper player interaction in endgame
thats the story as old as time... games have a hard time making try hards and casuals both happy
That's a whole different issue tbh
This is more about making the MMO feel like a large interconnected community
With multiple avenues of progression, or content to do or zones to join others in
Rather than a set of menus
Im sdaying that is part of what makes the "community" feel disjointed
And 3 or 4 pieces of content you'll just run solo anyways because you can't be bothered to find a group

I mean not really no? But if you want extra damage don’t see the harm
To be honest, though the same side of that argument could be said that if you’ve ever been an ecstatic or a long-term gain rate group, you realize how hard it is to find actual dependable people that aren’t not flaky so maybe games have steered away a little bit from you depending on others due to just people not being reliable
it's garbage
not particularly but if you're running variant solo as tank and don't need external self healing then it helps get slightly more damage out i guess
scales with item level just means it has different scaling than regular attacks, like lb and OC actions
the damage output is generally better than the potency implies but it's still not good
final fantasy fourteen have consistent tooltips challenge impossible
XD

I heard criterion aint got shit for rewards
I heard you havent started progging savage yet
True
However
Fell out with my friend group so no need to play bg3 at night
Savage incoming
let me know when you go in ill help you prog
Bro said it was epic that he fell out with his friends 
Lmaoo
It’s epic I get to prog instead of replay bg3 for the 5th time 2 nights a week
Tomes of Mnemonics is the highest IL in game?
What's the best endgame gear to have?
mix of heavyweight savage and weekly capped tome gear upgraded with augments that drop in savage also
every patch rather
I need high IL just to get into these savage thought
770 is enough to get you in for heavyweight
Tomestone of poetics is only up to lvl 90?
poetics are exclusively for old gear
if you need gear for savage the fastest way is to buy a set of 770 crafted and the cheapest way is to cap (450/450) your mnemonics every week and buy a set of 780 tome gear
realistically you're going to end up somewhere in between
And I see that I can upgrade the bygone gear up to IL 790
Wow a whole new challange 🙂
I think i'll start with crafting the gear myself, I like crafters but they are not 100 yet
yes the bygone brass gear can be upgraded to 790 with drops from the current savage tier
static cancelled halfway through bc phys ranged had to leave 
bro is gonna sit in here all day super reacting people 🥀
returning player just got 100 and finished dawntrail, unlocked some of the endgame raids. What should be my priority getting going? I bought crafted 770 healer gear
check the balance for bis, start getting your mnemonics tome gear, and start joining savage learning/practice parties
any recs for finding those savage parties?
just use PF like everyone else
Go to Aether if you can. If Aether is blocked, then it’s likely Primal will have some parties.
gotcha wasnt sure if they were in pf im in the same boat as vivi but in dynamis, ill try aether thanks!!
This is a guide to the fight Arcadion M9S (Vamp Fatale) in the game Final Fantasy XIV. This guide should be fully compatible with the Toxic Friends raidplan. I show both the original strat for aetherletting as well as static, and I try to show some possible ways of getting the melees and tanks in during vamp stomp without killing each other. If ...
You’ll probably want to review that as well.
i would also check the balance for rotation fundamentals and spend at least 10 mins on a training dummy
if you’re not used to lv100 rotation yet
don’t have to be perfect but opener is free damage so at least have an idea of what the opener is
awesome tysm !
I would say an opener is a basic requirement for savage
Also don't forget to stock up on current food (dependent on job, mandatory when progging savage) and potions (mandatory when working on a fight's enrage timer)
make sure your gear isnt broken too btw
where the hector guide for criterion?
He doesn't usually do them
where the hector guide for forked tower?
hector save us
Why does it recommend the lvl 99 item set and not a level 100 (IL 740), is there something special about this set?
the ilvl 740 item is normal quality so it has much worse stats
compare the stats shown in the tooltip
when buying crafted gear, make sure you always buy
gear
the lvl 99 item isn't that great
its magic damage is much better
It also seems my IL isn't rising when I equip it
Oh right, what's better, m.damage or intelligence?
Wanted to upgrade my weapon until I get better gear lmao
just buying courtly lovers would be cheaper in the long run
It's high price
yeah but you're gonna end up buying it anyway
yeah
so then you would have bought a ceremonial weapon on top of a courtly lover's one
meaning more gil in the long run
It's also seems like a good challenge for me to craft the items
ceremonial gear is already too low ilvl to do the newest normal trial
crafting requires an upfront investment of both gil and sanity
idk I haven't put a lot of thought into it
You basically just wasted money on nq gear that's worse
if you want to raise your item level right now
just go play the game and buy the old uncapped tome gear
you can at least get to 750 without buying anything
and without any real timegate
They're trying to get into savage
a mix of uncapped tome gear and normal raid gear should get you all the way to 8.0 at which point better ilvl gear will be poetics and msq rewards
770 should be the bare minimum tbh
well yes but they can't do heavyweight normal in 690 lol
yeah
goto limsa and ask for some gil, im sure one of those multi-billioanire raiders will give you somethin
That's not how I roll
isn't gil begging against tos or something
get uncapped gear and 7.4 dungeon gear, use that to get heavyweight normal gear, slowly upgrade your gear with capped tomes
uncapped is mathematics?
yes
and capped is mnemonics
doing roulettes on a lv100 job should get you plenty of mathematics
So historia set
yep
Crafting might take a while yo
and you need Gil to start
It'll take a long time
yeah gearing up my crafters and gatherers took a good few million gil
Like 3-4 mil yea
and even if you're pentamelded (which is very expensive) you want food to craft stuff more reliably
i got lucky and my friends just made me the 750 crafted
so all i had t odo was bash my head against a wall getting it melded
I spent 40 mil speedrunning my crafters to 100 and I haven't crafted an item since
i made a lot of money from idiots who bought firmanent stuff
it's me I'm the idiot
crafting CAN make you decent money but it requires a huge upfront investment
40 mil is still way better than spending hours in my life doing that bullshit
hey if it saves time for them, it's somethin valuable
I have good income so Idc if I spent 30k on nq gear
I'd rather pay one hour's worth of minimum wage worth of gil than spend like 20 hours in diadem lmfao
then why didn't you just buy high quality courtly lover's directly
I'm like going between 3-4 different things to make money rn, had to drop a bunch of money to buy a shiton of levinchrome
because all set is 50% of what i have atm
Nq is straight up a waste of money
Yeah ok I agree it wasnt the best decision
I just wanted something cheap with high IL so I can go into 695 activities
with sack of nuts?
Yes
Ill go with historia set, i'll keep this as-is as I finish the last MSQ for dawntrail
I cant do these raids yet
IM a new endgamer, give me a month or 2 

BUT - I'm excited since it's a whole new world, really ffxiv never stops suprising
You got the 99 job gear?
