Unless SE actually bans domains for emails then you can get an infinite amount of emails for like 10 bucks a year

just had a thought on how they could make alt job gearing easier

what if every accessory was like aiming and you had jobs from different roles that could use it. get rid of fending and healing accessories and just have 3 types distributed across the jobs

#

no wonder blaming the healers is (from what i see) faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar more common in wow

worn bluff
#

i don't play WoW but i heard their raiding mechanics and job design is different

#

so idk if DD would have the same effect

surprised the wow subreddit is so negative on the idea

and then it disappeared when i clicked on it

worn bluff

idk how true that is

loud swift
#

more like healers get to do more work

worn bluff
#

i mean in FF LB3 cheese or invulning stuff is not “skill expression” but maybe it works differently in WoW

trim frost
versed kayak
#

can't really do that if you end up with a 90% DD

#

sucks when randoms do it ofc

#

I'd definitely tengentsu some mechanics if it didn't give a DD and my (statics) healer ok's it

#

but it also reads like in wow the fight would just take longer until the healer can't handle it anymore, instead of just leading into a hard enrage that you can't blame the healer for

robust shoal
#

yeah I think wow has more short dps check phases/hp pushes too

I imagine it would be like seeing an extra twister cast in Twintania and people memeing on it except worse

You can straight up just kill her before the 2nd raidwide she does

With a Scholar or TankLB

This won't apply to MinIL & No Echo tho

If you queue Garuda Extreme from the roulette

ye with regular sync you also just skip any relevant mechanics she could do

But only if you wiped after a certain amount of time

You're never getting the wipe echo cause iirc that only happens after 5 mins of being in combat?

I mean

It is

But if you can't comprehend it yourself I fear that reflects on you pretty poorly as well

#

Do what you need to, if your party wipes needlessly to mechanic just because of your refusal to learn what the listed strat is, you

#

are wasting people's time.

anyways, perhaps learn to read- you'll need it for future mechanics

#

clone rel is slightly better in my eyes but it genuinely does not fucking matter if you have eyes and a working braincell

#

imo

rapid whale
#

iirc the person who wrote the raid plan simply misunderstood what dn was actually doing and dn did do clone rel

terse zodiac
#

both are just like rehashes of strats we've used on most fights so anyone with experience in endgame can easily do both

craggy marsh
#

clone relative is more comfortable for me personally

rapid whale
#

nah imma complain /s

terse zodiac
#

clone relative definitely makes more sense intuitvely

grand mesa
#

either way

#

intentionally wiping the party to a permutation just bc you can't comprehend words in a strat is griefing

normal summit
#

Snake prio is unnecessary extra step when the mechanic already asks you to find your clone. It’s not that snake prio is hard, just an extra step for virtually no reason

grand mesa
#

yes

craggy marsh
#

ya

grand mesa
#

but I think not following the strat when that's what people are doing

#

and causing wipes that way is pretty bad

#

I'm not arguing for what strat is better, we're just talking about someone who clearly refuses to comprehend what people settled on for a strat earlier

craggy marsh
#

tbh that's how I feel about a lot of strats where they add unnecessary steps or the person explaining the strat is wording it in the worst way possible making it more confusing

normal summit
#

We have essentially the exact same concept in the first criterion fight, where you’re looking for the two safe donuts. And that uses the same idea as clone relative to find safespots, rather than shoehorning in snake prio

terse zodiac
#

i like snake prio because it basically makes me plant at north 50% of the time lol

grand mesa
#

Anyways

#

I've said my piece

normal summit
grand mesa
#

yes

#

that's my point

#

someone in here earlier was willing to wipe a party 1/4 of the time because they refused to learn it lol

normal summit
#

I hope nobody is arguing they should intentionally wipe their group because their strat is bad

#

Oh no… that’s just straight griefing

grand mesa
#

yup

normal summit
#

Easy way to find yourself on a few blacklists

craggy marsh
grand mesa
#

It's early enough into the mechanic and a low enough % that it might be clearable

#

but

#

I fear for their ability to do later mechanics if they can't wrap their head around reading the raidplan for the first one

normal summit
#

If they really can’t manage snake prio, Just do clone relative, then do it backwards if your clone is NW.

its very hard to learn from just a raidplan, its good for getting the info but it doesn't give you timings or visuals

craggy marsh

if the video doesn't explain something in full detail I usually check the raidplan to see if they have more info

terse zodiac
#

yeah vods are extremely helpful

grand mesa
#

not enough people do that

terse zodiac
#

tho finding vods that use the right strats are sometimes hard to find early lol

rapid whale
#

yea like u pause and ask yourself, "what should the strimmer do next" and if ur wrong u need to find out why

jolly flume
#

most people have no idea how to actually study out of a vod

#

it's not passively watching it with a bag of popcorn

wicked delta
#

Ive gotten into vod watching and it helps more than watching guides over n over

#

Also remaking mechanics in ms paint

rapid whale
#

u can even gcd map off a vod

wicked delta
#

Its kinda bis lmao

craggy marsh
#

bonus points if the player in the vod is your job

grand mesa
#

I think you're doing yourself a disservice if you just outright refuse to try it if you intend on progging fast

normal blade
#

Wurm 2 aside. This... isnt awful.

grand mesa
#

specially since you're waiting for pfs to fill either way

#

idk

craggy marsh
#

I think we should normalze guides that explain mechanics and then show a vod of said mechanic

Its better than ive done historically

I love that he shows both gameplay and diagrams

rapid whale
#

while i undersatnd why you would want that, ppl are already complaining that the guides r getting too long

#

it also increases the production time

normal blade
#

Thats their problem lmao

normal summit
#

a large part of the reason I don't do that is because it's next to impossible to show a POV that shows all roles well

much easier for someone to google a POV of their role

Had to check out of watching his TOP guide after he platformed a specific person

Tessan is good. Just uh. That one guy.

I had to use a longer guide on top of tessan's to fully grasp annihilation and suppression in uwu

Yikes™

id guess LT?

craggy marsh

Which is a huge shame bc the P5 portion of the guide is explained by that specific person

There was a guy who did a voice over and became a very bigoted and gross takes.

im sure if they knew abt the views beforehand they wouldnt be in the guide

craggy marsh

#

Yeah, thats true.

#

Its just. It retroactively stains the video.

Not Tessan's fault that the guy was secretly a massive racist

they just left immediately after

when ppl did not know where, the fuck to go.

because there were 2 strat sets and ppl did not know how to read

Wasnt there an issue with the name of casts being swapped in chaotic

jolly flume

that got patched very early

craggy marsh
#

I remember the small issue of some people calling phases the wrong thing making people confused

normal blade
#

I never did get to do chaotic

craggy marsh
#

mfs out here really calling the first 30 seconds "Phase 1"

normal blade
#

Release timing was. Awful

craggy marsh

when the boss rarely did anything

terse zodiac

they still run prog groups all the time if you want to

tough gorge
#

chaotic as a whole just sounds Not Fun™

grand mesa
#

I feel like platforms being called phase 2 is

#

fine

#

it's a very clear divergence of mechanic design in the fight

jolly flume
#

it's just an extreme with 16 more people that can wipe you

#

it was cool once and that's about it

craggy marsh
#

chaotic is cool and I really hope they don't just shelve that content in the future

I treated it as a rebound during a breakup and cleared it 50 times during the holiday after release

i reprogged the fight to p5 and i still think the first four phases are the most uninspired boring shit (ignoring party syn)

jolly flume

i didn't even have the game installed when it launched but i've done it as the person manually marking and also like 40 times so I don't think I would've had a problem in 6.3

grand mesa
#

Well

#

I guess monitors is fine

craggy marsh
#

I remember when TOP launched and the elitist Niko was adamant the P3 auto attack issue was perfectly fine

normal summit
#

really? Looper + panto makes for easily the toughest phase 1 of any ult

grand mesa

i mean, I guess?

it's "tough"

progging that phase on content was pretty miserable

all I was told by my tank buddy was that if I wanna rly challenge myself as a tank I should do dsr

The only real mechanic changes they’ve done to Unreals so far is putting your dead body back on the arena if you fell off for fights that didn’t originally do that (Titan, Leviathan, I think one other)

#

Also they added a tether to Sephirot’s earth shaker cleaves to show when you’re far enough away to be safe

Besides that, the fights are completely faithful to the originals
