not in my case xD

#

I always take the first tick on the 2nd

loud nymph
#

but doesn't your invuln drop off before the final tick?

wind cypress
#

paladin is 10s the first invuln is like 9? can't remember

sleek moon
#

first one is solo, second one tanks take 1 hit together, third one they take 2 hits together

loud nymph
#

Gotcha, I'm not a tank so I did not recall the exact timings

wind cypress
#

if I press it too early I'm afraid I'll die at the end lol

robust shoal
#

iirc it's ~8.5 seconds from first to last hit on the first tower

daring pine
#

in my runs we've just been doing ttp

sleek moon
#

i havent tanked for a while but there were previous raids where a cooldown lasted long enough for two busters if you timed it well

#

or cover some auto attack dmg

#

sometimes you want to cd very early so the buster lands in the last ~3s of the cooldown

#

so its back up early

thin fox
#

i'm p sure he has openly said he never checks any information on the balance and just works everything out himself incl rotation + bis

robust shoal
#

I figured out oblation timing that caught every buster in top p6 then did it and realized it has 0.7s of wiggle room

#

this tier tank gear was obvious to the point of not even being fun to figure out but like

#

usually you get good results from checking the balance

sinful brook
#

idk i feel like most of that is just figure this shit out yourself because each tank may do it a bit differently

#

not to mention teaching you how to do uptime isn't hectors job

robust shoal
#

the drk opener is kinda no duh but I spent so much time spreadsheeting to make sure it all works out later down the line

worn bluff
#

like my friend tried to solo it with prepop LD and they just died at the end

robust shoal
#

šŸ‡«

worn bluff
#

or i think it's first and last hit are 10.2 seconds

#

it seems like TTP has taken over now and is the default

#

which is nice for DRK bc they can prepop the first tower

grand mesa
#

Skip last tower or gg

worn bluff
#

tower order: T.

jolly flume
#

tower order: W (wipe)

robust shoal
#

tower order: oh did you want me to take the first one

worn bluff
trim frost
#

it’s a discussion mechanic

worn bluff
#

i watched a stream where a warrior didn't take the first tower and baited the other tank into burning their invuln and jumping in, but he also jumped in and invulned

#

and then they both died on the 2nd tower

#

but somehow still cleared and the warrior was released into reclears

robust shoal
#

one time in m8s a war DURING THE CUTSCENE was like oh hey drk can you take first invuln

#

I didn't see it

trim frost
robust shoal
#

we wiped

#

like that's some please discuss before pull stuff

worn bluff
#

the warrior also greeded a tower in arena split and gave everyone bleed just to get a 0 at the end anyways

robust shoal
#

also some get confirmation when you discuss it

jolly flume

"oh my god who is releasing these griefers into reclears"

robust shoal
#

I had a few of those moments

jolly flume
#

of c41ing someone into instantly blacklisting them

low hearth
#

Wow no content for 8 weeks GIGACOOKED

clear plume
#

It’s league of legends time

wind cypress
#

just "forget" to use invuln every time you reach ttk, the ultimate troll - can we um have solo savage yoshi p so I don't have to rely on randoms?

low hearth
#

Who tryna do TOP fresh?

#

Prior ult experience required preferably DSR or FRU

jolly flume
#

i've never done an ultimate before but i'd like to try top

#

can I join

robust shoal
#

my last TOP group the leader recruited someone who'd cleared I think one savage tier with like greens on the last fight because he doesn't believe in parses

worn bluff
#

i just got this game and job/msq skip i'd like to try top

clear plume
#

Can we do one side panto? Best way to make sure prog takes 8 weeks

robust shoal
#

it was also the first ulti she'd be completing, though she'd seen like DSR p3 in PF

#

she absolutely smashed it

robust shoal
#

sometimes taking a chance works out if the vibes are there

worn bluff
#

i love seeing PF descriptions with weird strats. one time i joined a P10S and then realized it said "NW/NE wings, CW break" and then 5 seconds later everyone is like "wait... what do you mean"

robust shoal
#

group before that had the biggest prog griefer I've ever played with and he was almost orange median in savage

#

he was literally sheeping p5 trios

random needle
#

Oh yikes

jolly flume
#

95% of people still sheep omega to this day

low hearth
#

sheep tech

jolly flume
robust shoal
#

leader did an experiment where he'd run to his psyn spot late if he was tethered to him and we wiped every time that happened because he was just reacting to his tether partner

random needle
#

I still wanna do TOP but I'm also still not sure what role I'd wanna play it on

robust shoal
#

also mistimed panto invuln like 3x in a row on day one

robust shoal
#

we ended up just not invulning there (which is better anyway imo)

#

I thought we had the sauce in my prog group when we had me take both bosses and invuln solar ray in p2

#

but that didn't catch on

jolly flume
#

p6 on caster is free

robust shoal
#

also we first did that by accident because lol drk opener

random needle
jolly flume
#

every caster job has equivalent or more movement than it used to

low hearth
#

oh

#

wasnt ts cooked in endwalker or sum

#

😭

jolly flume
#

ew blm in p6 was some Wokege shit though

#

mfs had that phase spreadsheeted

robust shoal
#

our stack the flares strat did catch on and people called it Momo strat cuz he tweeted about it 😭

low hearth
jolly flume
#

braindead limitless

#

icant

random needle
#

I do like the role plenty still but I wanna experience something else at least

... I feel like I'd be trolling hard on tank though somehow

robust shoal
#

you can see us doing it on like day one in mogtalk vods that probably don't existany more

#

they just never talked about it because we only got featured when all the reasonable people were asleep and it was C-string groups with no casting

#

apparently they did make fun of my slidemaxxing in fru though

jolly flume
#

tank doesn't really do anything different in top than anyone else tbh

#

very role agnostic fight

#

just know how to press mit

robust shoal
#

I had a lot of fun in top on mch

clear plume
#

I was gonna say tell that to p1 ending Mfs are BAD at mit there

robust shoal
#

ofc I just think top is fun

#

it was super fun on rpr too

#

and ofc drk

clear plume
#

I love top on monk actually

random needle
# jolly flume just know how to press mit

Sometimes I worry that I play my mit a little fast and loose on SCH in my static, but I feel like if I was genuinely bad at it, I'd be able to recognize it or I'd be getting called out on it

robust shoal
#

But there's nothing like blasting 14k rdps on p4 doing like two basic combo gcds the entire phase after people die to monitors

jolly flume
#

mit in top is genuinely dead simple

#

it's very uninteresting

clear plume
#

Back in my day

robust shoal
#

savage mit only matters on the fixer

grand mesa
clear plume
#

Mit fifny reach across the entire arena

jolly flume
#

you just get hit with a single raidwide that does 150% of your max hp every like 45 seconds

grand mesa
#

Tbh

random needle
#

The shieldie at least

grand mesa
#

The best places to mit are the parts of the fight that kill you, and you learn that fast

#

The hardest part is just learning to cascade ur mit to fit fight timelines

jolly flume
#

just press mit buttons somewhere until something kills you and then press an extra button there

#

it's all vibes

grand mesa
#

Yeah

robust shoal
#

out healers got it figured out

#

(legitimately the work well together)

grand mesa
#

As long as it's not a 0, ig

jolly flume
#

me and my coheal kinda cook on double shield

robust shoal
#

the sch is just like, don't you dare press a gcd heal your glare is worth more than my broil

random needle
#

e12s is like the one fight that has had some somewhat spooky heal checks for us up to now, mainly in Junction Shiva/Titan and now Terminal Relativity, but I'm hoping that we barely have to do Terminal if our damage is good

random needle
#

The initial hits of the Relativities hurt, but there's like 7 years to set up spreadlo before they go out

robust shoal
#

Terminal is crazy

worn bluff
#

does PLD benefit from any comfiness in TOP? or is GNB playable

random needle
robust shoal
#

I wonder if Terminal lost its crown to The Fixer for hardest-hitting savage raidwide

clear plume
#

Gnb rework makes it playable wherever the fuck you want, it’s the point of gutting the job like they did

robust shoal
#

4x 10% and a shield to survive it at min ilvl

grand mesa
#

Pld has group mit, but you lose out on a p5 invuln

jolly flume
#

wings is nice in like one significant failure point

grand mesa
#

Im not sure if you still need healer mit to live a swap with current vit

jolly flume
#

because people can't remember to mit wc2

robust shoal
#

if only spreading the panto lasers was popular

worn bluff
#

i want to play GNB more it's just sometimes it feels like PLD without range

grand mesa
#

Fwiw

#

You rarely ever have to run out of range in TOP

#

It's just uh

worn bluff
grand mesa
#

P2 and some parts of p6?

#

idr

robust shoal
#

p6 should all be melee

grand mesa
#

Or is p6 boss big enough

#

Ah

#

gg

#

Should be free then

robust shoal
#

you can max melee both exa patterns but it is close af

jolly flume
#

yeah you can't really lose uptime besides like

#

limitless tether

worn bluff
#

it's like i still find PLD fun, so it's a decision of whether i want to play a job that is a little more fun at the expense of comfier mit/range

robust shoal
#

even limitless tether you should only throw one ranged gcd

grand mesa
#

I still don't know if you need extra mit to swap p5

robust shoal
#

someone asked idk if here or balance if they can skip the unmend on limitless tether

jolly flume
#

out pattern on exa lines up with the outer corner of intercard markers with pf markers too so there's not really any guessing involved

robust shoal
#

like uhh it's just 1 gcd

grand mesa
#

Idr the damage ranges

clear plume
robust shoal
#

man, I forget our prog strat for limitless

grand mesa
robust shoal
#

sometimes we went cw and sometimes ccw

#

I forget the logic behind it

#

but we never messed that bit up

#

i've only done like 1 hour of TOP

#

and it was on RPR which i'm not sure if i want to play

#

i think TOP has the best weapon glow in the game though, so i've always been tempted to go back

#

I did top on viper at like level 93 on expack drop it was fun šŸ‘

grand mesa
#

I held every phase during prog because my dps players wouldn't stop bitching about phase time

worn bluff
#

so there's no fun stuff for tanks in TOP?

#

just play DPS?

clear plume
#

If healers want to bitch dps players hold

robust shoal
#

fun stuff for tanks in TOP is doing TOP uwucarby

low hearth
#

Viper hold šŸ¤”

grand mesa
#

I don't hold anymore

worn bluff
#

i guess the other thing is what job is more in demand

#

for easier fill

robust shoal
#

It's just mit stuff and perish if you ever mistime something

grand mesa
#

If you find that fun

clear plume
#

Quite legitimately, progging on tank is progging on melee

robust shoal
#

Also there's a pre-rampart you need to nail in sigma

grand mesa
#

But melee dps in TOP is payphone meme

clear plume
#

You will learn the same mechanics the same solve

worn bluff
grand mesa
#

You just end up having to pay attention to a bit more than on DPS

Staggering mit in p3 (he fucking hurts)

Big news gamers my new monitor arrives today

TOP mit isn't necessarily hard but it is extremely punishing

jolly flume
#

top pf is literally the reason I picked up sage

clear plume
#

240hz prayge

jolly flume
#

because no parties could fill the slot

robust shoal
#

You just fall over dead if you miss a mit on anything

grand mesa
#

I have a 210hz panel

worn bluff
#

i guess i find doing the few tank things more fun than a more involved DPS rotation, usually

grand mesa
#

I do not notice the difference between that and 165

robust shoal
#

except like limitless tether if you're the spreadlo target

jolly flume
#

I have a 240hz oled but I only get 80fps in xiv KEKW

#

reshade+resolution diffed

worn bluff
#

i like having my buttons rely more on the fight and incoming damage, but i don't like it enough to play healer

#

so tank is where i usually land

grand mesa
#

If you want an easier time in PF

#

Being the competent tank will help

jolly flume
#

ngl I kinda hate playing tank in dsr and top because my peanut sized bird brain can't remember both mt and ot raid mits

#

and I also don't play the terminal mt/ot tanks

robust shoal
#

I haven't rly pfed them so ig it doesn't actually matter but being always ot on drk is kinda nice

#

funny cuz (old man time) drk in sb was the only tank that did both mt and ot depending on comp

worn bluff
low hearth
#

having to flex mt and ot GIGACOOKED

jolly flume
#

I got away with flexing mt ot gnb in fru because party mit is a suggestion in that fight but I'd probably wipe us in top to something lol

robust shoal
#

imagine playing pld and turning your stance off costs a gcd

grand mesa
worn bluff
#

tbh remembering to switch between mits is the main reason i don't feel like OTing in M12

#

i just know rep idyllic

#

but i have no idea what the other mits are

robust shoal
#

well ig it wasn't turning stance off it was switching from shield oath to sword oath

#

but w/e

worn bluff
#

but i guess i'm PLD so i just party mit everything

jolly flume
#

tbh one tank can cover like

#

most of the actually threatening damage instances on their own in 12

#

so if you overlap a few times it's not that big a deal

worn bluff
#

i feel like most of the MT reps in both phases cover almost everything yeah

#

other than idyllic

robust shoal
#

the only thing that matters that much is fixer

#

just mit fixer

grand mesa
#

Specially when they do it for the rw after m12p2 candies

robust shoal
#

and maybe you eat a splattershed without rep, not ideal but you prolly live it

worn bluff
#

in phase 1 i rep like... all the fixers, one of the splattersheds, one of the slaughtersheds

grand mesa
#

I have not had a single splattershed almost kill me

worn bluff
#

my rep just barely comes up for that one splattershed that no one mits

grand mesa
#

But also

#

I've always had shield heal 10 on it

worn bluff
#

because fixer 2 and splattershed are like 47s apart

jolly flume
#

I thought they were all the same 105_ICANT

grand mesa
#

bro is vibing his mits

#

castbar owwie, me press

worn bluff
#

idk why they have different names

#

they both just kind of exist

grand mesa
#

Slaughter is last mech

#

Splatter is before that

jolly flume
#

oh

grand mesa
#

Splatter also doesn't hit as hard as fixer

jolly flume
#

yeah splatter is the one that does nothing then

#

slaughter actually hurts a lil

grand mesa
#

It's probably there for seperation

jolly flume
#

I thought it was the same cast name doing diff amounts of damage

grand mesa
#

jolly flume
#

reading is hard

grand mesa
#

NA players and reading...

worn bluff
#

i rep 2nd slaughter and wings 3rd slaughter

grand mesa

worn bluff
#

idk what else goes out during those

grand mesa
#

I always have neutral sect for 2nd

#

And bubble for 1st and 3rd

worn bluff
#

i have to wings at the start of slaughter castbar though, because people will split up to see the markers better

jolly flume
robust shoal
#

do people in pf just like randomly spread there

#

cuz my static stacks all the dps and all the supports

worn bluff
#

you're supposed to have supports and DPS somewhat separate

robust shoal
#

makes it very easy to see what you have

worn bluff
#

but not everyone does it

jolly flume
#

my group does supports back dps forward

grand mesa
worn bluff
#

sometimes you'll get a random dps standing with the supports

jolly flume
#

which is opposite of pf so every week

the more people that parse higher the more difficult it is for average peeps to not see grey

#

how would necromancy even be uh. suitable for heroics? as far as we know, necromancy in this game involves literally reanimating bodies instead of just gathering plain ol' dead matter and forming em into flesh golems like GW2 does

maybe they can just do the.... latter and say "oh we found a more ethical way to perform necromancy" or some shit

sinful brook
rapid whale
#

me too plz

visual knot
#

that newer players are not really giving DN rep 2 the credit it had in early week prog.

#

Banana having its upsurge thanks to guidemakers gives it popularity, and it is a decent strat, but for prog parties, DN worked in the early weeks cause its recoverable.

#

Banana requires finesse, whereas DN can be brute forced with enough mit if anyone was too slow or died. You can't really brute force Banana.

clear plume
#

Not really why dn was used at all but go off

visual knot
#

its not so much why its used, but how prog parties who still need to prog rep 2, wall there until they get the banana movement down. DN you could get past the mech even with deaths.

#

cause all the baits are done right from the get go. Its why we saw so many idyllic parties so fast by week 3 pf.

#

granted people who did dn rep 2 on week 3 weren't slow to learn it since they were filtered by Tyrant.

worn bluff
#

i mean i can only go off my brief time progging rep 2 but i didnt feel that anything was a wall in that mech with banana?

#

i also did it with dn and it was fine

#

i don’t really see any major issues with either strat, minor downsides yes

visual knot
#

both strats work very well, but since they both are popular, they conflict.

#

and people join one pf and then do the other movement

worn bluff
#

i’m not sure what movement in banana is difficult or less recoverable

#

they’re just different

#

banana is definitely tighter on nether positioning but it’s usually more inexperience vs actual difficulty that gets people

visual knot
#

in banana, its baiting the wrath, then the stack, then the conals, then the other stack.

In DN, its the defams watching the nethers along with conals to the wall, then Melees and Ranged going to their stacks.

#

banana has less movement, better uptime, but more awareness of the steps doing it.

#

DN has "less steps," but less uptime. Not by much, but a little less uptime if its Nether far, and it was a melee defam.

worn bluff
#

i dunno, i feel like that’s a personal thing on how much awareness you need of the steps. to me they require the same amount of awareness on average

#

DN is slightly more awareness/reaction for nether, banana more for going back to reenactment cleaves

visual knot
#

they are both easy strats, but we see wipes in prog with them anyway.

#

cause when you 1st prog it, it feels tougher until you realize it isn't.

#

reclearing it, rep 2 is just "the mech where MT is getting their ass kicked from autos"

worn bluff
#

should have ramp for the beginning and then 90 for end pepothink even as pld using up 90 during sobat 1

#

it’s not too bad but i guess PF tanks are allergic to using mits sometimes

visual knot
#

save their mits for busters, and not the largely damaging autos they soak over 90% of the actual encounter

#

I'd be willing to argue the recent criterion captures this fully.

#

Pari does huge auto attack damage, and barely tickles with one single buster.

#

Idyllic dream is either an annoyance for healers, or auto bot mode, based on the MT's whims with their mit.

low hearth
#

saving mit for the buster

visual knot
#

its why in duty roulette content, I like to let my tanks go to sub 10% hp before I bene them to see how they view their mits.

#

if I see an invuln and rampart go off at the same time at 30% hp, I know my comm is going to the dps.

#

if I see a pld use HG when they are at max hp, after a full wall pack in Mt. Gulg, I give them an applause and a scratch ticket.

@limpid edge I multibox constantly 1. The client its self is designed to allow two instances. Unlike most programs especially on windows. (Linux you can get real crazy)

So long as 1. You are not doing it automated aka unattended there is zero issues and 2 so long as your activities are not creating a negative experience for other players.

No.2 is the unspoken metric for most things be it multibox or mod related.

As Yoshida said "its not our job to know whats on your computer."

However rmt activities or harrasing tactics are the fastest way to become a permanent fixture on their radar and leads to a ban.

Take for example that dood that wrote a mod that exposed the owners of the retainers he made it strictly to hunt down and harass the other players that were undercutting him.

He probably would have avoided issues all together had he NOT harassed em

Those guys due to the money they make have countless emails ready to register and setup a new account with ease they only partially fullporrof way is to hardware ban but that can also be bypassed with spoofers
