yes

unreal flax
#

The stat with the points

sullen sable
#

What job Kelvin?

mighty shale
#

ohh nice

eternal sand
#

Drg

dull radish
#

you apply head-on directly to the forehead

unreal flax
#

I went crit, personally.

sullen sable
#

Crit if you can, dh if not

eternal sand
#

Ive been putting dh on everything

#

Fk

sullen sable
#

It's fine

dull radish
#

dh isn't bad

unreal flax
#

DH is fine, really

dull radish
#

really secondaries are pretty minimal

#

in comparison to optimization in play

eternal sand
#

Ah ok

dull radish
#

as long as you didn't like, go full skillspeed det melds or something worse

#

you're fine

unreal flax
#

Yeah, optimize your uptime and your secondaries will start to matter more. If you're just getting into gearing/raiding, secondaries don't matter as much as people make 'em out to.

eternal sand
#

😬

unreal flax
#

Unless you do what Rika said or if you play NIN and you have fuckin 1400 SkS

#

NIN really, actually suffers a lot with high SkS

paper torrent
#

the class that goes fast and attacks fast

#

hates SKS

#

i always found that super strange so i was slike "but more attacks, don't they like that"

#

and then i played ninja with high sks

#

holy moly cancer

azure hill
#

I tried to learn DRG with 1200

#

That was.... interesting

scenic patrol
#

You can lose about 100 DPS as Warrior if Upheaval gets misaligned

paper torrent
#

yeah that sounds about right

scenic patrol
#

Which it often does for me with 2.36 GCD

paper torrent
#

that window at the start is super tight

scenic patrol
#

And that's 0.02 difference

shadow pollen
#

I get what Vertical means for O7S (Virus), but what's CCW [Counterclockwise] for?

lyric summit
#

biblio

paper torrent
#

biblio i think

#

ninja'd

shadow pollen
#

Ooooh

#

CCW is N/W Melee, S/E ranged?

glossy musk
#

Yes

lyric summit
#

that sounds clockwise

paper torrent
#

i thought it was W to N

glossy musk
#

Clocks move the other way

#

Clocks go N, E, S, W

lyric summit
#

it's usually N->E and S -> W

#

but that's clockwise afaik

glossy musk
#

Yeah. In the end it’s 4 locations pick two

woeful prawn
#

why did NA pick ccw

#

especially since exdeath was clockwise?

dull radish
#

someone probably did it in some guide video

#

and then PF clung to it

spice comet
#

Ive seen cw too

#

Just not as common, same for exdad and ccw

grizzled seal
#

not doing edge at exdeath πŸ˜”

vague anchor
#

oh hey new channel

unreal flax
#

I kinda miss Exdeath, tbh. I mean, yeah I hated Exdeath, but I also thought it was a fair fight. Neo was what I was always looking forward to.

pure yoke
#

Exfaust is stupid and I hate his face

grizzled seal
#

i hate his cape more

unreal flax
#

HIS CAPE.

#

Nevermind, I don't fucking miss Exdeath

#

Fuck Exdeath.

sullen sable
#

Lmao

unreal flax
#

"I'm casting Black Hole! Prepare yourself!"
"Now, you must move! HA! You've gone under my cape! WITNESS MY BALLS!"

stable basin
#

yeah, there is sooo much follow the leader in pf

#

it's why you end up with all those meta parties that have no business being meta because you know the typical random pf pug has nowhere near the skill to even take advantage of it (while people like ayami get left salting daily about it)

dull radish
#

meta parties have been a decent bit less common this tier at this point

#

in PF

stable basin
#

yeah, i wonder how many of those are actually "someone forgot to reset the jobs after someone left"

dull radish
#

not many

sullen sable
#

Where did that even come from?

#

Nobody was even talking about it πŸ€”

stable basin
#

it was pretty much rika's comment about pf clinging to things lol

pure yoke
#

Hi

spice comet
#

The ccw strat i believe evolved the same way was y exdad was cw, it worked and ppl spread it πŸ€”

grizzled seal
#

Tbh it's usually tank or heal deciding

#

like healer usually decided if you die on first or third, tanks usually decided if its edge or center

#

atleast on eu

spice comet
#

Yea gco was always just ask the healer

#

Primals the same, for exdad tho it was typical for cw strat and everything else wasnt as common

unreal flax
#

Honestly, my GCO is still shaky lol

spice comet
#

I miss neos healing

#

It was basically regens

unreal flax
#

I'm scared of Virus. I wanna see it. I want to see it and not die to it

#

No wait, I want to see it and die in it first.

spice comet
#

God kefka had been like...."wait 1 hp, ultima right after then fire stacks and forsaken? Wut paissasquint

dull radish
#

virus is pretty easy, just go stand in your assigned spot

#

then pass rot around after

spice comet
#

If ur melee

unreal flax
#

Rot is the sad part

spice comet
#

Always pass rot to ur comelee

#

Stand on marker

pure yoke
#

Rika

#

Have you seen the galaxy brain strat for that

#

Diagonal strat

unreal flax
#

I had enough trouble trying to actually pass Last Kiss in O6S. I know how difficult passing shit in this game can be.

dull radish
#

I've heard rumors of diagonal strat

lyric kelp
#

the x shaped virus

dull radish
#

but haven't seen it in action

lyric kelp
#

where you ping pong the guy around

pure yoke
#

Where searing wind pushes the raid back in the middle

spice comet
#

Diagonal

pure yoke
#

For uptime

lyric kelp
#

and it passes virus?

spice comet
#

Literally gonna ping pong

#

Doesnt searin go off tho

#

So ur gonna burn ur whole raid?

pure yoke
#

That's the point

spice comet
#

This some srs strat for dmg

lyric kelp
#

the damage isn't big

pure yoke
#

To push you back to the middle

spice comet
#

But its gonna be 4 ppl

lyric kelp
#

as long as you don't knock someone into a wall 😑

spice comet
#

If u r pulled in towards ur partner? So 4 searings

#

paissasquint the other thing was....ranged can hit from where theyre at

#

Gotta get those sick healer autos in there

sullen sable
#

less moving for casters/healers

spice comet

lucid karma
#

Anyone know gathering cap for two stars legendary node yet? I know it's 1375 for one star to get four items per gathering.

outer garden
#

from what i've heard it's not possible to reach it on current gear yet

#

expected to be around 1575 for for +3

lucid karma
#

Thanks

vital bolt
#

Alright more PvP rewards I'll likely miss out on again soulsurrender

azure hill
#

Yeah, the Feast mount looks pretty amazing

unborn sigil
#

Man I do not see

#

How the fuck people keep uptime during Demonic Stone

#

I have tried this

#

Like 3 times

spice comet
#

Oh the dps tether?

#

Its like max melee range and ur fellow tether has to do the same

#

Otherwise ur both rip

#

Im dumb

#

Same thing max melee and looks like they just dance around boss since he has no positionals

unborn sigil
#

I've been spamming o6 normal to try and figure this out

#

Like, I run around the boss in a circle but stone is hitting me every single time

#

All 3 procs

#

I just die

spice comet
#

I would just go into savage, i think i wiped my pt too many times doing the keep attking while reapers tether to me

lusty oak
#

Ask PLD for cover/healer for shield

spice comet
#

It looks like after first drop they just keep moving looking at video

unborn sigil
#

I know PLD can cover but I'd rather do a method that doesn't take resources from raid

spice comet
#

I did it as rdm, it was basically slidecast and swift cast as the stones came

dull radish
#

racecar strat is a bit tough but yeah

#

if you have a PLD, they're probably not really doing much if anything with cover anyways

#

most jobs you can also just kinda move out then dash back in with gap closer or something, depending on job

#

at most you'll take like one hit which is whatever

#

and you can minimize uptime loss to like maybe a GCD

spice comet
#

Its a perfect 360 around the boss πŸ‘€

scenic patrol
#

Cover a resource on O6S?

#

You have no practical use for that aside from melee uptime tbh

#

In Demonic stone

unreal flax
#

Wait, is that for the fountains that follow two people?

sullen sable
#

ye

unreal flax
#

Oh, that's dope.

sullen sable
#

i'd rather just have the melee do the mechanic right because the tanks are getting pounded in that fight blobmorning

woeful prawn
#

saves rampart for when i need it mentality

#

total casts: 2

scenic patrol
#

You mean OT gets pounded in that fight, as MT the tank busters barely tickle

sullen sable
#

o tru

#

i'm just used to our ot being pld that whole fight

scenic patrol
#

I think of taking off 2 Last Kisses there as WAR, but I dunno if my healers will like that

sullen sable
#

could swap and cover

#

tbh it's probably better to do it that way

#

last kiss on ot is dildos

scenic patrol
#

I guess it's a good timing for a Circle Shirk

unreal flax
#

I'm gonna be teaching O6S to a group this Sunday. Question about the solo stacks: Is invuln required for this or something like Sentinel + ... whatever good enough?

sullen sable
#

they take like 60k damage in like 6 seconds

scenic patrol
#

Invuln

#

It'll straight up kill the tank without as a solo stack

unreal flax
#

Aiight, so their OT will have to MT this fight unless they also have a WAR. Their OT plays as PLD.

scenic patrol
#

OT should be either PLD or DRK

#

WAR is default MT

unreal flax
#

But Hallowed is seven minute CD and there are two solo stacks, tho

sullen sable
#

you get both

#

with hallowed

unreal flax
#

Really?

#

Oh, dope

woeful prawn
#

you can catch both with hallowed

scenic patrol
#

Hallowed comes back in time

sullen sable
#

they're almost exactly 7mins apart

woeful prawn
#

the second one is just in fucking africa

unreal flax
#

Yeah, I know it's a million miles away. I never realize how long these fuckin fights are. They all feel like they're three minutes lmao

sullen sable
#

yo every time second pot comes up in god kefka i'm like

#

shit already?

unreal flax
#

I look up at my overlay every now and then like, "How the fuck is this already 8 minutes? What???"

#

Nevermind the fact that I've already hit BL like 22 times and used 2 or 3 pots lmao

dull radish
#

yeah 6 is the worst one for me in that regard, I just never really notice the time passing

scenic patrol
#

It's such a relaxing fight

unreal flax
#

Unless you're a melee and get targeted for sprouts. Then it's rage.

dull radish
#

just get lucky every time, easy

unreal flax
#

Rolls 1 on Demonic Stone

RIKAAAAAAA! >(

dull radish
#

<3

#

also killing it before the second one gives you a lot better odds of not getting one haha

#

much cozier

unreal flax
#

Lemme tell you fam, I'm tryna skip mechanics midfight. That's my mentality lol. "Kill before" doesn't even factor into it. I wanna turn every fight into A11S.

dull radish
#

A11S was such a mess haha

woeful prawn
#

i've blacked out as warrior ot during a11s

sullen sable
#

lmao

dull radish
#

we were at a bit of an odd point with raid dps back in creator, we would sometimes skip optical, sometimes skip edd, sometimes skip lapis, sometimes phase too early and not skip lapis

#

was just a mess of a different fight each time

woeful prawn
#

i like that more than current format

dull radish
#

mmm I dunno

#

I liked skips more akin to A10S

#

where you could push and skip things and it was fine

unreal flax
#

Yeah

dull radish
#

instead of having to try to control certain amount of raid dps at certain times to skip some things but not skip others

#

just so much more effort

unreal flax
#

Or like in A9S killing Faust on the second fire. 9 years of solid mechanics-free uptime on the boss.

woeful prawn
#

for me it was just LB1 if we land at 66%

#

the gayest fucking shit in a11 for me was second edd

#

15k shield on all dps

#

curebomb lmao

untold oyster
#

Oh yeah I remember the first serious group I ran with did that Faust strat in a9 and it made me feel like a good player πŸ€”

cerulean pilot
#

where do I get a dyable whm weapon for fashion report T_T

steady pebble
#

augment any of the tomestone weapons

unreal flax
#

You probably have 600,000 Poetics at this point, so just grab the Shire weapon from my girls Hismena and Bertana in Idyllshire. Tell 'em I sent you and they'll hook you up. For a price, of course.

cerulean pilot
#

shire weapon is dyeable?

unreal flax
#

If you augment it, yeah

#

600 poetics total.

cerulean pilot
#

alright I'll augment it then

unreal flax
#

Hismena has the Tomestone, the tokens, and the gobdip you need. Bertana has the weapon itself. Then, take the weapon and gobdip over to Seika (not one of my girls) and she'll upgrade it to dyeable for you

shadow pollen
#

A11S skipparoni

stable basin
#

I gotta get A12S on farm. Saw a buddy in map group on the mount and now I want it owo

shadow pollen
#

I’m so close to clearing O7S

#

I just need the group

dull radish
#

how close have you gotten? Pugging it can be kinda rough at times, I know haha

stable basin
#

Tell me about it, one of my buddies on siren was pugging it like 12+ hours a day and groups couldn't seal the deal

#

And I thought 3-4 a night for two weeks on Shinryu was rough

dull radish
#

sounds like a bit more than you should have on either, especially if you do any filtering

shadow pollen
#

13% enrage

#

Few deaths

dull radish
#

ouch

#

I could probably help sometime if you needed, though I'm just a dps haha

shadow pollen
#

Gonna try tonight

dull radish
#

mm helping out with some O8S with mostly static tonight, but after if you're still going I might be available haha

proven yarrow
#

how does loot work for savage tier raids?

normal mesa
#

well for one, painfully

#

joking aside, there's a lock on it based on how many people in the group have cleared. if all 8 people have not cleared, and you then clear, two chests will drop

#

the number goes down with more people who have already cleared for the week in the party, first down to one chest, then to zero

#

no matter what it always drops a datalog/token the first time you clear for the week, so even if the chests don't drop gear you can use/you fail to win the roll/you do a 0 chest party, you'll always get that upgrade token.

proven yarrow
#

ah i see

torn kindle
#

Also if you skip a floor you are no longer eligible for any loot, as if you cleared.

#

So you can't do O7S and then do O5S and O6S for their items.

unreal flax
#

Well, you can, but the game will treat it as if you have already cleared for the week, which means no chests for you and no datalogs

#

And this happens if you even enter the instance, regardless of whether you clear or not.

torn kindle
#

Which is the unwritten rule for statics that you basically only run with them.

#

so there's no 1 chest or 0 chest shenanigans

unreal flax
#

So unless you really don't care about the floors you're skipping, DO NOT skip floors

scenic patrol
#

The only time it's okay to clear without the static is when there's no more raids until next reset

#

Like for me, I can pug O7S all I want

pure yoke
#

you need

#

alot more O5 and O6

#

for BiS

torn kindle
#

Always ask your static first, though. that way you don't cause confusion.

pure yoke
#

compared to 7 or 8

torn kindle
#

depends on job, some may use more tomestone gear.

scenic patrol
#

I use only need one item from 5

#

So now my data logs from there will go to MNK

pure yoke
#

I need

#

Diamond Boots/Belt/Bracelet

#

plus 2 additional polishes

dull radish
#

boots, two twines, two polishes for me

#

at least for full speed set

pure yoke
#

like

#

I literally need boots from o6

dull radish
#

ideally I also get chest to drop from 8 as well, as well as picking up another twine

pure yoke
#

and a belt or a bracelet

#

then I am bis for drg

#

if I spend pages after those drop

dull radish
#

yeah I'm holding onto pages from 6

#

until I either get boots to drop

#

or hate myself and buy them all at once

scenic patrol
#

I need Diamond Helmet, Gloves, Axe, 3 twines and I'll be BiS

pure yoke
#

must be nice being able to completely ignore O5 and O6

#

mostly

scenic patrol
#

It's the one positive thing about pentamelded BiS

#

Also I need a Greatsword as well

#

But that'll wait for way after we start clearing Kefka

keen glacier
#

Wats dis

severe notch
summer moss
#

I hate smn bis

#

Everything is tomes except head body and accessories sans necklace

boreal edge
#

i need 4 twines

#

1 polish and chest

#

ugh

#

16 o7s kills

#

or 12 since i will get 1 twine

summer moss
#

Rip

#

At least they'll give us the weekly gimme raid soon enough

#

Until then I'm just gearing my SAM soulsurrender

blazing pelican
#

_>
I need 2 twine and a coat. I also need my weapon, chest armor, and hopefully my gloves so I don't have to spend pages this week.

molten blaze
#

Just had a 1 chest run helping someone clear with some other people who already cleared for the week on O7S

#

Twine, solvent, pants, all of them I severely need because BiS healer pants, twine for chestpiece and BiS healer wep

#

Rolled Low and was the only one who didn’t get loot

#

Fuk

#

Because only 4 players could roll on 3 pieces of loot

boreal edge
#

rip

heavy mist
#

?

boreal edge
#

at least u got both page and duty complete

heavy mist
#

o

boreal edge
#

duty complete > chests

honest trellis
#

monday night TWO CHEST ONLY aim to clear parties

#

πŸ˜‚

grizzled seal
#

the monday night special special

boreal edge
#

brd bis too is stupid this tier

#

i350 bracer

grizzled seal
#

also locked to pld/war/sch/ast/nin/drg/brd/mch

boreal edge
#

pentamelded

#

and both tome rings

#

losing close to 21 dex

#

for 200ish crit

#

not sure if i should stick with it or go i370

honest trellis
#

tbh im surprised pentameldeed for BRD being BiS hasn't been a more common thing

boreal edge
#

its not

heavy mist
#

it depends on stat tiering i guess

#

but so odd

boreal edge
#

because both i360 and i370s bracers dont have crit

heavy mist
#

oh

#

unlucky

honest trellis
#

yea pentamelding is aids enjoy that experience

heavy mist
#

pentameld VIs

boreal edge
#

i already pentamelded the bracer

honest trellis
#

i have to do that shit every tier

heavy mist
#

πŸ‘Œ

honest trellis
#

πŸ’€

#

ey nice

heavy mist
#

at least u can get bis for that side earlier

#

if anything

#

assuming tank if im right

boreal edge
#

but idk if i should stick with it til 4.4

honest trellis
#

i'd rather not be BiS for a couple weeks than have that gil sink

boreal edge
#

im losing 14 dex for 144 crit

heavy mist
#

couple weeks?

#

thats some luck right there

#

hooray for 0 o5s drops

#

πŸ‘€

#

6 weeks in a row

boreal edge
#

also

#

tome ring

#

i360

honest trellis
#

tomestones being BiS are a thing as well dont forget

boreal edge
#

losing 7 dex too

#

for 60ish crit

honest trellis
#

plus book purchases

heavy mist
#

feelsbadman when u need waist

#

then wait for 4 more weeks for 1 ring

#

:/

honest trellis
#

πŸ™

heavy mist
#

i got lucky i think? 1.5 million for 1 pentameld

#

including buying the right side

boreal edge
#

imma give 2700 crit brd a shot 1st then see if i should drop 200 crit or keep it

honest trellis
#

i've always been pretty lucky with tier drops from earlier fights, it's normally just the final fight i don't get for a while. On neo I didn't get my wep until week 6

boreal edge
#

@honest trellis better than me at least

#

getting wep right after using your books

#

week 9

honest trellis
#

how didnt you get it week 8 from the box

#

you pug it?

heavy mist
#

that feel when u too busy to pug o8s

#

πŸ’€

#

and learn the rest of it

boreal edge
#

@honest trellis i mean i play mch and brd

honest trellis
#

yea im the same, i'm chockers with work rn so i'm still on god kefka prog

heavy mist
#

once i learn 2nd forsaken its freeeeeeeeeeeee

#

3rd forsaken doesnt look too bad anyways

honest trellis
#

@boreal edge Yea but assuming you have a static, shouldn't you have, at the very worst, been given the weapon box on week 8?

boreal edge
#

2nd forsaken is cancer

heavy mist
#

so ive heard

#

need to learn melee uptime strat

#

:/

boreal edge
#

oh yes you are right im braindead

#

@honest trellis

heavy mist
#

lolol

boreal edge
#

8 kills are 2 weapons

heavy mist
#

box and random drop

boreal edge
#

i guess i mixed o4s with A12S

heavy mist
#

lol

boreal edge
#

at least melee dont have to do baiting meteors

#

so melee got it easiest in 2nd forsaken

#

once you pass 3rd forsaken ( which is far easier than 2nd ) you are good to kill him

heavy mist
#

so ive heard

#

honestly whats the hardest part of god kefka

#

?

boreal edge
#

2nd forsaken

#

its basically new GCO

heavy mist
#

i figured

#

since 3rd forsaken looks like jsut kefka normal mechs

#

with some new stuff

#

trine isnt that bad

#

and the kick things are 🀷

boreal edge
#

3rd forsaken is basically 5th graven and 1st graven mixed together

heavy mist
#

is it always tanks and healers outside

boreal edge
#

with mad heads and path of lights

#

its random

heavy mist
#

oh okay

boreal edge
#

gotta look at tethers

heavy mist
#

so still got pay attention

boreal edge
#

its easy tho

heavy mist
#

yeh

#

just a small check is all

#

or be lazy and ACT it

#

πŸ˜›

boreal edge
#

starstrafe is 2nd hardest mech

#

after 2nd forsaken

heavy mist
#

oh whats dat

boreal edge
#

4 small puddles on furthest 2 dps

heavy mist
#

o.o

boreal edge
#

and 5 large puddles targetting closest 2 dps

heavy mist
#

huh

#

probably just watch a quick guide

#

on that part

boreal edge
#

happen in 2nd forsaken

heavy mist
#

oh it happens during it?

boreal edge
#

and happen between 3rd and 4th

#

in light phase

heavy mist
#

hmm okay

boreal edge
#

the 1st one happen mid forsaken so its easier

heavy mist
#

oh the tank thing?

boreal edge
#

2nd one happen while you are semi not prepared for it

#

lol

heavy mist
#

ah

#

gotta be fast

boreal edge
#

to get an idea about 2nd forsaken

heavy mist
#

oh

#

huh

#

so u make a box

#

put one right before the emteor

#

so its 5

boreal edge
#

yes

#

5 large puddles to 2 closest dps

#

and 4 small puddles to 2 furthest dps

heavy mist
#

hmm thats a nice gif

boreal edge
#

1 mistake from any of those ppl handling it

#

is a wipe

heavy mist
#

oh

#

then its pretty much GCO

boreal edge
#

yes

dull radish
#

You can have a mistake in second forsaken and have it not be a wipe, it just depends on which mistake and in some cases, if you can deal with a damage down stack

#

Or a death, for that matter

sage orbit
#

@boreal edge what that??

wet stag
#

looks like godka

dull radish
#

yeah, it is

#

second forsaken specifically

molten blaze
#

@boreal edge I said helping someone clear, I cleared already Long ago

boreal edge
#

ah

#

so

potent forge
#

So just want to make sure this is true. Is the game really getting a FFXI styled content? Develing? NM's? Wut

dull radish
#

yeah, side content, called Eureka

manic quail
#

I haven't read up much on Eureka. Is it solely for the new relic weapon?

lyric summit
#

i think so? they haven't mentioned anything else really, except that one ffxi outfit thing

#

but there was a diadem-like lockpick lootbox opening npc next to the eureka entrance npc in the liveletter so there will probably be some more stuff

manic quail
#

Hmm .. curious xD

stable basin
#

Did they mention if it's FC vehicle dependent again?

torn kindle
#

nope.

steady pebble
#

highly doubt it is

Probably the splits if I had to make a guess

vital bolt
#

Though if there is deleveling, and monsters powerful enough to kill you before you can kill them you'll likely won't want to try too much outside of a party

#

Also you can't deaggro monsters either so you won't be able to outrun it unless you're able to exit the zone and cut it off splat

yeahh nooo our bard was extremely bad...

he wouldnt take criticism well

and didnt want to accept that it wasn't okay to not have a proper rotation

i dont think his gcd was going even half the time tbh

#

anyway im just happy i dont have to deal with him

it was awkward because we joined the static on the same day

but our level of performance was drastically different

boreal edge

ah

i never brought it up till like last week

to try and meet dps requirements

when one of our dps couldnt even contribute to what your average bard could do

i hated o7s tbh

it was a gem

o3s was super fun

most fun fight out of the deltas

O3S was a fuckin cakewalk compared to this, but still a really good fight.

I went in with a first timer learning party. OT cleared God. The rest were varying levels of new. Made it past second add, but surprises and sloppiness killed us before Virus. Furthest we got was first bombs.

It's an interesting fight for sure

#

I got up to second Radar, the one with the Biblio pads, one person is slow and it's a wipe

only thing hard in o7s is remembering the patterns

its same fight in the end

o7s was a good fight, except for the tethers

we lost at least 3 hours day 1 because we thought we did it wrong but it turns out its just because of ping

hybrid rapids
#

think it's easier this time

#

mechanics are really simple, DPS check tho....

#

think neo was harder cause hate control

#

from healer perspective tho

#

DPS might harder

woeful prawn
#

there are only 2 parts still hard to heal for me in god

#

misaligning eos WD and/or dps missing WD for second forsaken
+
after third forsaken when you go into light phase you have to share the doublebuster 5 seconds after close/far wings happen and if the OT doesnt pop vengence for that he's dead

dull radish
#

yeah, I can see both of those

#

hate 2nd forsaken, and I know there's a lot of tank damage going out for that later part because my WAR always calls for a lot of healing haha

woeful prawn
#

i park eos there and let her + WD catch most of it. its always been real close but he's never died to it.

#

then i drop an adlo on the warrior -> deploy for light of justice and get sick lb from it

dull radish
#

lb gen from light of judgement and such feels so good

sullen sable

Using LB during the cast and having it instantly fill to lb1 afterward

thats a powerful fucking warrior

opaque tide
#

what does Horizontal and Vertical Virus mean for 7s? I've done Virus alot but never seen those terms

woeful prawn
#

vertical is hysteria tethers pushed up/down. horizontal is left/right

dull radish
#

well not just hysteria tethers, but all tethers

#

including searing wind ones

#

just means, is movement vertical, or horizontal for those

#

and then there's that whole, diagonal virus thing, that's a completely different matter

opaque tide
#

ohhhokay that makes more sense

what should a diurnal ast meld

hybrid rapids

Depends on your playstyle

As in offensive or defensive

#

Basically all offensive goes DH or high crit

#

Defensive more on PIE and SS

But also focus on crit

Just no DH

Doma castle weapon kek

was just wondering if it's worth to upgrade to the 360 weapon from the byakko weapon

dull radish
#

pretty universally yes, unless you're looking to clear O8S soon and get the weapon from there

cerulean pilot
#

even if the stats it gives isn't favourable?

dull radish
#

yeah

#

main stat and weapon damage is a pretty big improvement

#

taken in tandem with being able to upgrade it to i370 with upgrade item from O7S

azure hill
#

Shouldn't underestimate the utility of that slight VIT gain either

torn kindle
#

Weapon Damage is a big factor in damage.

azure hill
#

Any extra health helps when progressing

torn kindle
#

It's why Crafted NQ weapons are extremely terrible compared to HQ

cerulean pilot
#

damn now I feel dumb for wasting my mendacity early

torn kindle
#

Example:
i350 Crafted Axe HQ has 101 damage.
i350 Crafted Axe NQ has 91 damage.
i288 Castrum Abania Axe has 92 damage.

#

But to match secondary stats you'd need the i330 Creation Axe, which would have 98 damage.

heavy mist
#

its hard to waste mendacity imo

#

unless u spend it on the same part somehow

#

you'll just be delaying if u buy a piece that u have i370 from already, so its not terrible

wet stag
#

Also you should be making sure you're buying the right parts with mendacity

#

I'm delaying buying my ring for another week because I'm getting a 2nd weapon this week

azure hill
#

Yeah, it's a bit of a waste to not buy BiS mendacity items first

#

Best to focus on those first and fill other slots with raid/crafted/Byakko gear

Well, to be fair

The only reason they added STR to tank accessories at all was people doing 4.0 extreme primals with Shire slaying accessories

And now people use Crafted Accessories because the strength gain is so minimal between ilvl jumps and you don't need the extra HP most of the time to justify losing out on a ton of secondary stats.

Thing is tho if I get a static it'll have to be after next week

Elemental rf isnt bad

Try to filter them by raid times and not by skill levels, as long as they have a desire to improve it's workable

But fucked up raiding times are not fixable

Without roster changes

It's just that my schedule for the past few months, days I was free kept changing

asking veteran from 2.0, 3.0.
How good is the relic weapon back then? is it comparable to the current tomestone weapon?

I'm not sure, should I spent my tomestone for the weapon this week. since the relice weapon is on the horizon and I don't have much play time per day to grind them.

scenic patrol
#

Should be comparable to the tomestone weapon, but not better than the raid weapon

#

Comparable to the not upgraded version

#

That is

lunar junco
#

do you mean the final step of the relic weapon or the first parts when they released on each patch?

wheat garnet
#

So. It might as well be farmed with a secondary class then?

steady pebble
#

This step of the relic should be on par with the base tomestone weapon

lunar junco
#

thx for the info πŸ˜ƒ

#

so, I can plan them for my 2nd job with this

wheat garnet
#

Base as in mendacity or creation? Mendacity I guess? Or there would be no point

steady pebble
#

Mendacity, ofc

#

why would it be creation when that's last tier's weapon?

hybrid rapids

there's no info on current tier relic

we can still make educated guesses on what ilvl it'll likely be

and there's no way it'll be on par with creation ilvl

even though that only lasted like 2 weeks.

Make IR only guarantee crits instead of dcrits

I think it's more like in a game like XIV you don't really have so much leeway to nerf jobs without creating severe issues regarding content balance

Maybe also decide on if they want VIT to add damage. πŸ‘€

#

OH MY GOD.

#

PLEASE BRING THAT BAKC.

wet stag
#

Change weakness to a damage down instead

stable basin
#

It's not like WoW where the whole group can basically parse green/grey and still clear Heroic raids in most cases

torn kindle
#

Damage/Healing down* but yeah

paper torrent
#

i would love vit scaling

wet stag
#

Right yeah

paper torrent
#

to ensure that tanks have a more valuable damage stat

#

on every single piece off gear their pick up

stable basin
#

if you cut back the endgame productivity of xiv jobs it's a lot more possible to end up with situations where groups that used to be able to clear a given piece of content can't anymore

#

especially this tier with its tight DPS checks

paper torrent
#

i do like the tigher checks though

torn kindle
#

Hell, I wonder if tanks would still be using Shire Slaying Accessories if SE didn't add STR to 4.0 fending accs.

#

i feel like it's more "svage" that way

#

Fucking probably

#

they would probably sub out to shire for speedruns

#

and vit melds li

#

#

actually kefka probably does way too much damage

#

those ultimas fk wreck your shit

say you get to hear snake lady lisp more

and susanoo being a fun dude

if u can meet those dps checks in i355 then its not tight

more so than gear checks

compared to FFXIV

idk im not an expert

paper torrent

i mean i thought gear was more of the "you're foot is now in the door, now get in fuckboi"

more so in WoW than ffxiv

@pure yoke it's more like "did you get specific RNG favors on your gear? No? No good parse for you"

imagine if all our gear was the pink aetherial stuff and you'd have an idea lol

paper torrent
#

wait are you serious

pure yoke
#

gear in FFXIV just makes sloppy play alot less punishing

#

like at the beginning of the tier, a death on God Kefka could basically mean you will not meet the check anymore

#

while now

#

you can have someone just drop dead a bunch of times

#

and still pass check

paper torrent
#

i mean when i was watching wacih

stable basin
#

basically, some specs in WoW can't hope to parse well without getting very specific legendary items which are pure RNG

paper torrent
#

he seemed like a death on kefaust meant a wipe

#

oh wait his staitc was doing parse runs

#

nvm i'm stuipd

pure yoke
#

but yeah

#

at the start of the tier for O8S

stable basin
#

Gear is a much less luck based matter here in XIV, since the only endgame relevant gear with RNG that I can think of was the 280 weapons from Diadem during HW

heavy mist
#

really depends tho on the static

pure yoke
#

enrage check was real

#

dps wise

heavy mist
#

and the players

#

if u talking abot the people who are good/decently good then yeh

paper torrent
#

wasn't that the case for delta too though

heavy mist
#

yes

#

exdeath week 1 was super hard

stable basin
#

I mean 2 chest runs will get you your 370 faster, but you don't have to worry about "is it 370 or is it 410 Titanforged" like snow-company game

paper torrent
#

i mean i know tera has rerolling lines of gear and shit

pure yoke
#

also player skill does matter alot

paper torrent
#

and if you didn't perfect roll you literally lost like 10% dps

pure yoke
#

aka healers that actually dps

#

makes the dps check less tight

#

healers that respect content is going to make your life difficult

boreal edge
#

@pure yoke is why i said if u can hit it in i355 then its not tight

#

if you cant in i370 then yes

paper torrent
#

I wish they would revamp earlygame

#

to introduce those concepts earlier

boreal edge
#

here its very tight

paper torrent
#

like susano for me

#

was just a WALL for most people

pure yoke
#

World First did it in Deltascape bis

#

but they literally perfect played it

paper torrent
#

it was super fun and i wish that happended more consistently

boreal edge
#

fight wasnt meant to be cleared in i355

pure yoke
#

in God Kefka

#

they literally cleared

#

when the enrage timer finished

paper torrent
#

do people parse run ucob?

pure yoke
stable basin
#

but yeah we were mostly talking about the impact of nerfs in XIV vis-a-vis WoW

paper torrent
#

i would love to see what healers output in there

stable basin
#

WoW has a great deal of headroom (outside of mythic maybe) for classes to be nerfed without it significantly impacting whether you can clear content

#

XIV, if you nerf the DPS output of a group they much more easily won't meet enrage anymore

paper torrent
#

holy shit, 2.4k SCH is 100%

stable basin
#

therefore, there is much less capacity for nerfing outside of "buff everyone but that one"

paper torrent
#

the 54* WHM is 1.9k, jesus

boreal edge
#

not many ppl reached that part

#

so dps percentiles are wide

#

atm

cerulean pilot
#

can I use that excuse for my O7S run this week

#

got 17

#

wanted to kms

heavy mist
#

no

boreal edge
#

5200 brd dps is blue in god kefka

#

5400 is purple

#

see that difference

paper torrent
#

jesus that's insane

hexed meteor
#

probs dots

paper torrent
#

is it even possible to have 100% uptime

pure yoke
#

I died in Phantom Train today with 6.4k dps before death

heavy mist
#

sounds nice to have the buff line up

#

😦

pure yoke
#

yes

hexed meteor
#

I dont even know how is 100% calculated

pure yoke
#

there is a very specific 2nd Forsaken strat

#

that has 100% uptime for melees + tanks

hexed meteor
#

is it from the person that is #1 then down below?

pure yoke
#

#1 is 100%

hexed meteor
#

then yeh you can 100% @paper torrent

#

:gachigasm:

paper torrent
#

Fucking nus

#

nuts, this is some advanced tech and shit

#

meanwhile i'm sitting here shitting in o5s

hexed meteor
#

I like 5 more than 7

paper torrent
#

mostly because i don't play

pure yoke
#

I like Kefka more

hexed meteor
#

7 is goes disco man for mnks

cerulean pilot
#

you're still likely doing better than I am

pure yoke
#

because Kefka is my only 100

hexed meteor
#

and its WRYYYYYYYY each time he moves

paper torrent
#

i'm literally just above grey

#

25.2%

cerulean pilot
#

I haven't parsed above green in sigma at all

paper torrent
#

like, by a fucking ballsack hair

cerulean pilot
#

seriously considering quitting if I can't get blue once

paper torrent
#

what do you play again? SAM?

pure yoke
#

what job do you play?

cerulean pilot
#

drg now

vital cypress
#

🀷

hexed meteor
#

but drg is back to back positionals

#

not as caner as mnk

pure yoke
#

I can give you some of my prog logs

paper torrent
#

train* is omni though

pure yoke
#

when I ran with WHM

hexed meteor
#

maybe is your opener?

paper torrent
#

so positional things aren't super an issue

cerulean pilot
#

I'm following the opener word for word from the balance discord

vital cypress
#

i've managed to sneak into blue on O5S a few times

#

i'm okay with this toot

pure yoke
#

the opener is only the start

#

you also have to optimize the rest of the fight

cerulean pilot
#

I think it's mainly gear and keeping uptime during mechanics

hexed meteor
#

but 6k opener vs 10k opener is πŸ‘€

paper torrent
#

are you 350 ilevel?

cerulean pilot

356
