endgame-lounge

[worn bluff]

saying solo leveling is mid is a pretty cold take though. why does it need an ilvl 888 PF

[craggy marsh]

Bc only savage raiders can appreciate the cold

[loud nymph]

because ffxiv players think they're the main characters

[worn bluff]

i'm sorry but you guys aren't the warrior of light

i am

[craggy marsh]

I can't wait for us to have ilvl 999 so we can join those scam parties

[worn bluff]

you're just 7 bozos i summoned

[jolly flume]

the cold never bothered me anyway

[craggy marsh]

You go girl

[worn bluff]

i kind of want to replace FRU P2 song with let it go now

[remote gate]

does this to you

[true beacon]

What’s even interesting about the concept

[dapper zealot]

It just looks like another unga bunga hype fight anime

Wait

PLL tomorrow, and then Steel Ball next week

We living the dream

[worn bluff]

it helped start the manhwa trend of protags that scale up in power quickly with not much effort

with a female lead who is strong but always weaker than the male lead and needs to be saved by him

[craggy marsh]

Solo Leveling is for people who say "I love anime" but only care about fighting and animation

[jolly flume]

I love spice and wolf

[worn bluff]

i don't believe you

[craggy marsh]

I love my goat Dorohedoro

[jolly flume]

[dreamy whale]

I love Keijo

[echo ibex]

That's okay

[worn bluff]

it's not like you have an alt based on holo

[dreamy whale]

So is the girl spice or is she wolf

[dapper zealot]

My watched anime is just all shounen tbh

[craggy marsh]

Tfw you buy a new vacuum and it's missing the tube

Must've been Cooly's vacuum business

[remote gate]

when the vacuum cant succ

[random needle]

If it was Cooly's business, it'd only be capable of sucking though

[craggy marsh]

Good point

[craggy marsh]

No succ

[worn bluff]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hVe1ndVnKM

bro there is no way someone needs all of these callouts

[zealous meteor]

just perform the suck yourself

[worn bluff]

they even have a callout for when adds spawn "kill add"

[jolly flume]

how else are they supposed to know? maybe you're supposed to keep the add alive!

[worn bluff]

i can't imagine playing the game like this

it's like barely playing the game

[jolly flume]

ok my eyes are bleeding from the ogcd clicking

and the constant clips

lol

[whole estuary]

I dunno, the Lego Steppers guy always says everything too for DRS

I think it's as much for himself to confirm his process while doing callouts, like a rhythm

[zealous meteor]

the who

[stray forge]

Lego?

[zealous meteor]

oh wait the discord?

[whole estuary]

there's a discord called Lego Steppers that does beginner DRS raids

[jolly flume]

that's a bit different than having cactbot say AOE every time there's a raidwide

[whole estuary]

oh, cactbot was doing calls instead of a live person

[craggy marsh]

Hey maybe this time fixer won't be an aoe you dont know

[worn bluff]

oath gauge permanently at 100

[vestal hollow]

me when the raid is wide

[dull drum]

arthars said losers use 3p but then he has cactbot alexa

[deep gale]

If you don't have a real human calling nael quotes until all the joy drains from their body you're doing it wrong

[dull drum]

[valid solar]

what is 3p

[dull drum]

third party

i abbreviated cause im lazy

[sinful brook]

3 penis

[craggy marsh]

Arthars also said AM was good for the game but then he became a hypocrite and said it's bad

[dull drum]

😭😭😭

unc has memory loss

[deep gale]

0 watchable xiv content creators I'm afraid

[craggy marsh]

Iirc it was bc he tried to clear UWU in pf and got pissed off they used AM for gaols

I feel like Arthars had zero clue what AM actually was

[craggy marsh]

Mr Happy kinda nice

Drak is fun to watch too

[zealous meteor]

idk i like rath

[jolly flume]

nael quotes but instead of calling out the mechanics you just read it out loud and let everyone else figure it out

[zealous meteor]

as for raiders uh

[deep gale]

Fuck I should have done this instead

[zealous meteor]

i mean endgame lounge is infinite content

i think that counts

[craggy marsh]

Happy is my go to raider to watch

I cant stand Xeno bc his ego is too big and I cant watch Arthars bc he's always miserable and never happy

[loud nymph]

I like rath but I also genuinely worry for rath's mental health

[craggy marsh]

Is Rath still stuck on Hades

[loud nymph]

no

[stray forge]

I have no clue who any of these people are gg

[loud nymph]

rath cleared Hades

[craggy marsh]

How's he gonna do SoS

[loud nymph]

I don't think he will

[craggy marsh]

Can't solo that I think

[loud nymph]

but I said that about susano too

[deep gale]

I shouldn't actually speak because I've been outside of the XIV YouTube sphere for a hot minute but the recurring problem I had with xiv content crators is that it was super repetitive conent. I can only watch X does X so many times. That's not even getting to the drama slop.

But again I am objectively unqualified at this point

[craggy marsh]

Well SoS has a forced tank lb3

[loud nymph]

I am aware

[craggy marsh]

So unless you can somehow kill it before that point

[loud nymph]

but susano has a forced catch the blade intermission segment that requires 2 people

or required

and he was able to do that solo

[amber fable]

Its not same as forced lb3

You can put a dot for sword ..although might be harder to do

[craggy marsh]

Either way if he somehow gets to EW content he's kinda cooked

[loud nymph]

well the goal has always been just "get to Endwalker"

I don't think he's ever planned to go beyond that

[craggy marsh]

Aah then SoS should be the final hurdle

Bc after that it's just dungeons

[zealous meteor]

get a full party for LB3 then have everyone but him kill themselves

that fulfills the spirit of the challenge imo

[craggy marsh]

I guess

[valid solar]

for fights that hard require multiple people he did it alongside others who are also doing solo runs

[craggy marsh]

Aah right he did that for crystal tower

[worn bluff]

saori is chill to watch for raids

[zealous meteor]

i mean if you think that any partying up ends the challenge, it ended with crystal tower

[loud swift]

I watched someone do that fight with 2 people

Using some raise forced invuln

[amber fable]

Rezzing when lb4 goes off

[craggy marsh]

Man that's some healerless TOP shenanigans

[valid solar]

ugh I did msq roulette for the first time in like a year

I forgot how much this sucks

[worn bluff]

high level dungeon is the worst for me

it's been like a month i'm still struggling to fill that aetherwell

[stray forge]

I hate high level dungeon

[craggy marsh]

Take the lift down, and you should find yourself in the chamber of the Ultima Weapon

[stray forge]

All my homies hate high level dungeon

[loud nymph]

Tell me, for whom do you fight?

[craggy marsh]

HMMPH

[kind elm]

the secret is that drak is fun to watch when hes with the rest of NEST

that mf will tilt over the tiniest thing by himself

and its so frustrating

😭

[craggy marsh]

[loud nymph]

this is true

the group dynamic is fun, drak alone is....

[craggy marsh]

Yeah I guess I should've clarified NEST

[kind elm]

i made him crash out on stream once during m4s because i said in chat "you can use the lines on the floor" and he went on like a 3 minute rant about how the lines dont line up (they do)

[craggy marsh]

I miss Larry but I think he's busy making his cat game?

[kind elm]

i wish i clipped it tbh

it was so funny

[loud nymph]

of course you can use the lines that's literally what they are there for

silly drak

[kind elm]

also the whole ypyt thing

[loud nymph]

also yes

selling ypyt merch is

definitely A Choice

[kind elm]

like he isnt a bad person

hes just

ya know

weirdge

[craggy marsh]

He's weirdge but id still watch him over other xiv raiders

[kind elm]

true

woops is my go to but he barely counts as xiv anymore

[quick verge]

i think

[kind elm]

he logs in for raid and msq

then goes nad plays better games

[quick verge]

watching grass dry is more fulfilling than watching xiv streams

[kind elm]

fr

[jolly flume]

I love licking wet paint off walls

[loud nymph]

the best youtube xiv content was misshapen chair and he stopped making xiv videos because he knows this game sucks

[craggy marsh]

I shall never forget how bored the XIV commentators were for FRU world first "Look at that INSANE mit!"

XIV really is boring as shit to watch

[quick verge]

top world race was elite and it barely had anything to do with the actual game

gambling on red/blue defamation was a highlight

[craggy marsh]

The second people started hyping up Echo for FRU and having their own "esports commentators" I knew it was gonna be gold

[kind elm]

echo wanted to do what they have for wow

which is cool in theory

if xiv was

even remotely interesting

[vestal hollow]

we all know ur secretly woops

[kind elm]

to spectate

[craggy marsh]

Ya

[kind elm]

i fucking wish

[vestal hollow]

get to 90 liv

[craggy marsh]

XIV wishes it could be as interesting to spectate as WoW

[vestal hollow]

im nearly 90 on my third toon

[kind elm]

i watched one of the wow heroic raid races as someone who had literally no idea how any of it worked and it was so fun and engaging

the commentators were really good

i understood what the point was

and they were so excited

[dull drum]

we need more channel point gambling to entertain ffxiv chat

🔥

[kind elm]

[craggy marsh]

Meanwhile in xiv "they went to their clockspots! Great coordination!"

[kind elm]

after phm i lock in prommy

[vestal hollow]

wow raids are very execution and rotation heavy

feels very satisfying to execute

usually

lots of more niche tools come into play than xiv too

[loud nymph]

metem ass commentary

[quick verge]

insulting metem

[vestal hollow]

[daring pine]

[vestal hollow]

80 was tww

[daring pine]

i see

[craggy marsh]

Metem being unable to keep up with Lindwurm 2 is amazing

[daring pine]

do they usually raise the cap for new expacs

[vestal hollow]

always yes

[daring pine]

ok so like xiv

cool

[vestal hollow]

they sometimes do level squishes though

because it was like

level 120 in bfa

despair

[kind elm]

i just have a notepad file onmy pc called "tamale" and all it says is "tamale"

[loud swift]

[loud nymph]

[vestal hollow]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/y5isRwgdrEQ

demon hunter is a hero class

you need to get to like level 10 or 20 first

idr

but thats like

[kind elm]

i had to get to 10 for dk

[loud nymph]

I didn't think that was a thing anymore

[kind elm]

so probably same

[vestal hollow]

in the tutorial

it is

[loud nymph]

but I guess I was wrong haha

[vestal hollow]

it just barely matters kinger

[kind elm]

yeah its like an hour

an hour in the tutorial gets you 10

[loud nymph]

yeah you get to 10 on exiles reach anyway

[kind elm]

then you can back out and make whatever

[loud nymph]

my copium is island sanc was se testing how much the xiv community actually cares about shinies and we're getting a full blown pokemon-like complete with ranked ladder

Why so many at m11 clear party/kill and I see they're at 20%

That ain't kill my friend

[rapid whale]

Zombie to enrage

[limpid edge]

gimme another chaotic

[vestal hollow]

this would require zones to be actually enjoyable to explore

[limpid edge]

i hate to say it but part of what makes CoD still played today is cuz towers is such a pain in the ass

maybe every cod needs an annoying soft body check mech for 24p

for longevity sake (or a reworked reward system if devs can figure it out)

and judging from new variant/crit, im not so sure

[stray forge]

wow already made a pokemon-like battle system and it died almost instantly

[limpid edge]

is blu still alive?

[visual geyser]

No?

[tall ore]

There’s been nothing to do on it for almost 2 years so not really right now

[stray forge]

lol

[vestal hollow]

wow absolutely mogs xiv with open world zone and its crazy

[limpid edge]

blu seems dead for another it

cuz they wouldnt increase blu to lv90 and release beastmaster at the same time

[tall ore]

They would

[limpid edge]

maybe on the backends of 7.5

the VERY backends of 7.5

cuz 7.5 is supposed to be loaded right

[tall ore]

It’s gonna be like 7.51 and 7.55

One will have blu the other beast master

If they release both in the exact same patch idk what they’re doing anymore

[limpid edge]

what is else slated for 7.5 besides new msq related stuff, ult?

beast

[tall ore]

A raid

[limpid edge]

what kind

[tall ore]

*alliance raid

[loud nymph]

it was in the game and actively developed / receiving content / etc for over a decade

idk if "almost instantly" is accurate

[proper cave]

Also OC north horn

[tall ore]

Also the second half of occult crescent yeah

[limpid edge]

i didnt even touch the new phanto jobs yet

[proper cave]

They’re alright. Mystic knight would be cooler if it didn’t mess with melee combos

[tall ore]

I think that’s it unless there’s any surprises

[proper cave]

Vana’diel 3, allied society cap, Hildy trial maybe, BST, probably BLU, OC 2.

Yeah that sounds about right

[tall ore]

And ulti surely

[proper cave]

Oh yeah Ult too

[craggy marsh]

It's also the sex update but only if you hour 1 the new ult

[tall ore]

Imagine time travelling so you can hour 1 clear top

[stray forge]

might be personal experience? but I never saw anyone else doing that content :\

[worn bluff]

if you had more customizable/buildable land and could have one zone that belongs to multiple players, it would have been good content

[vestal hollow]

what do you mean

confused abt that statement

[worn bluff]

like a shared FC island

where you can have more freedom to build stuff, like plots across the beaches, mountain etc.

instead of just the one spot by the entrance

[trim frost]

hello kitty island adventure

i agree though

feels way too restrictive on what you’re allowed to customize

shared fc island would be awesome

i would’ve gotten the paladin one but i used the base weapons for far too long on my old pld glam that i need a break from them

[echo ibex]

Is it true I don't know who said it, but that they don't design encounters with invulns in mind?

Or am I gaslighting myself

[wind cypress]

"weekly reward unclaimed", join -> the number of coffers will be 0

[trim frost]

not necessarily true

they do design certain mechanics to be uninvulnable

or if they are invulnable then there's sometimes a swap required or additional mit required

[echo ibex]

Oh not as in

They don't design those with like "okay players HAVE to invuln here else ripge"

But then you have certain scenarios which would contradict it like i dunno dsr p6 cauterize

[trim frost]

well idk anything about dsr but afaik there's no mechanics that make an invuln mandatory

usually just Easier

[worn bluff]

i don't think that there are any mechanics that are unsolvable without invuln, sprint, KBI

as far as i know?

like the solution may be annoying but it will exist

[wind cypress]

I've seen an unusual amount of people disconnecting or lagging tonight in pf, guess I'll pick up tomorrow

[austere jay]

Where do you find groups to run variant dungeons? Is it better to run them solo?

I've been digging around discord servers but I haven't found much that's active there.

Also I'm not able to do the "ifrit trick" that some people (like Mr. Happy) are talking about for paste, because I don't have the network. So is lvling roulette spam the fastest way? I do enjoy the CE's in OC and the general vibe there.

I'm at the halfway point on the paste

[true beacon]

Which halfway point

It’s 1200 total

[austere jay]

i've turned in 600 total and now I have about 38 paste or so so I've accumulated 638

It's been chiller than I expected, I like OC and I work on crafting in between queues

[trim frost]

if you’re comfortable with the base mechanics you can run it solo

clear efficiency with duty finder can be variable depending on how familiar other people are with the mechanics

merchant’s tale advanced can also be more efficient if you know the mechanics (generally speaking duty finder does) because there’s minimal downtime

[wind cypress]

cool so don't use mits, got it 🤣

[austere jay]

Thanks. It's rare that I find it in party finder. I'm running it as war when I'm a BLM main just becaue it seems to make more sense. The genie boss though, it's chip damage and a lot of mechs. Variant cure and dart. I enjoyed clearing the monoke aware dungeon solo but this boss is ruining genies for me.

[trim frost]

umm

use mits smartly

[austere jay]

in regular content and raids, shouldn't you just use reprisal on the boss as soon as its up?

(I am not a tank main)

[wind cypress]

before raid wides generally

for dungeons, mix it into trash 😄

[austere jay]

so you think it's worth holdin off a bit instead of just spamming it? i genuinely don't know this stuff, i main BLM.

[trim frost]

in raids you use mits when there’s expected incoming damage

[sleek moon]

mits arent like offensive cooldowns, you're not expected to keep them on cooldown

[austere jay]

i mean yeah that's what i do, i'll maintain 3000 mp as DRK for tank busters

[sleek moon]

use as needed

for reprisal specifically it usually goes on raidwides to reduce damage for the whole party when fighting bosses

[trim frost]

trash packs in dungeons you cycle through your mits (generally shortest -> longest cd) to make sure you always have something substantial up

[austere jay]

i mean with trash i'll use reprisal and then rampart or the other way around, tbn and abyssal drain

[trim frost]

that's fine

just don't use all your mits at once

[sleek moon]

for trash is fine yeah, its usually up for every pull

[austere jay]

no i don't use all my mits at once. i am not that beginner, but i'm definitely far from a pro

[trim frost]

and the reason i say shortest to longest is so you can have your short cd mits back earlier

[wind cypress]

smooth out the damage, healers don't like spike damage xD

[austere jay]

i've never died to a trash pull, maybe i just have great healers

[trim frost]

suppose you use rampart immediately on trash pull, and then your 30% thirty seconds later, then you'll have rampart back 60 seconds later

as opposed to using 30% on pull and rampart thirty seconds later, then you'll have neither of them until 90 seconds later

[wind cypress]

I usually use 40%, then when that runs out I'll use arms length, if I need to toss in a sheltron to keep from hitting cap that's fine + some aoe heal dps, everything else next pack - hardly leave anything for the dungeon boss cause you don't need it unless you're at 5+ vuln stacks

the dungeon boss "tank" busters barely do half your health unmitigated

[worn bluff]

it's also not the end of the world if you have 4 weaving issues esp in a dungeon

you should avoid it and plan out weaves but

unless it's like week 1 savage or you're parsing it won't make or break anything

i mean it from the sense of like... if you forgot to weave a mit earlier and have to triple weave, then just triple weave and then try to fix it for next time. the answer isn't "so i shouldn't mit"

[trim frost]

honestly

you really don't need to look at xivanalysis outside of ex and above

it's not that meaningful

can it point out the most glaring issues with someone not using part of their kit or something? sure

is that gonna make a difference for that person in the long run? probably not

[austere jay]

so you're saying use shadow wall first and then rampart later

[trim frost]

i personally advise against that order

but it really doesn't matter

unless you're like spending long periods of time with zero mits up or only a weak mit up

if you know trash is going to stay alive for a decent amount of time (e.g. gulg pentapull) you definitely do need to think about cycling your mits properly

but the alternative is just pulling more safely which is fine

[austere jay]

ok, i misunderstood you. that order intuitively did not feel right to me either

[trim frost]

for drk specifically the priority will be something like

tbn > low blow > reprisal/oblation/dark mind > rampart/dark missionary > shadow wall (dark vigil)/arm's length

which is just in order of increasing cd time

of course don't use tbn if you know you're not gonna get value out of it

but if you're not even getting value out of tbn then you likely don't need to be too concerned with the "correct" mit order

i don't include invulns in that priority because sometimes it's better to just use them asap to get multiple uses of it in the dungeon

except maybe holmgang which only really gets most of its value when you have nothing left (in dungeons)

[dapper zealot]

I swapped to cycling rampart then 40% for each pull, works more nicely since rampart can come off cd in the second pull if it's taking longer

[daring pine]

@trim frost morning oomf

[austere jay]

this feels intuitive and is close to what i do

i'm glad i wasn't that far off

[shy obsidian]

oookay i finally feel like i have some free time for once
hopefully peeps are up for some advanced shit

[austere jay]

i've been trying to find players for variant dungeons through PF but i'm probably going to skip them or obsessively learn to solo the newer ones

[tulip wraith]

solo aint that hard, just long

[trim frost]

hi twin

[tulip wraith]

it scales with players so its still like same average length, but more is still faster

[austere jay]

yeah it' a lot of chip damage on the merchant's tale if you're playing WAR, mount rokkon goes faster.

the hp dwindles like a dark souls boss against a player with low gear

the DoT dart does help

[daring pine]

hello gang

prog last night was pog

[shy obsidian]

yknow I gotta wonder
why did the variant version increase my skill speed by around -0.05 seconds (2.5 -> 2.45) when I never had any extra skill speed before?

[robust shoal]

I believe it gives fixed stats like bozja

why, I don't know

[clear plume]

bc it can be used for levelling 91+ now

[tulip wraith]

it scales you both up and down like bozja so i guess it just gives set stats for everyone

HOW DO YOU REACH 30

☠️

[alpine plover]

you have to realize vipers buff themselves with like 6

[dull drum]

top p3

[alpine plover]

with no outside help

[thin fox]

its buffs + debuffs as a single cap, so you reach it by having a lot of both

[jolly flume]

it's pretty easy honestly

[stray forge]

Oh debuffs count

That’s pepega

[alpine plover]

because "Ability ready" is also a buff

[jolly flume]

considering how many mit/buff buttons in the game apply multiple statuses at once

[robust shoal]

broke: 6-1-1 bad because people mess up and die
woke: 6-1-1 bad because you buff cap the gigaflare 2mins

[thin fox]

it also counts things like food buff / fc buffs etc

[alpine plover]

[stray forge]

That’s ultra pepega

[thin fox]

this is why sometimes statics would move servers to lose fc buffs
