how the fuck do you upgrade anything else
I have no clue
but your pants and top first
I should've checked
why is his top 340
lmfao
9 pm cst?
uber casuals
yeah
🔫
So i think
it's either one of two things
it's either 'cause he keeps unsyching heavel
or because his SE uptime is only 82%
why not both
when especially in o6s it should be around 95%
because you can get above grey with a shitty SE uptime
lemme pull up my clear log
unless he doing the wind
but this is casuals we're talkign about here
you can GCD greed black and blue but i prefer to stay safe
the timing to me is really tight and i don't care to optimize that much, even if i don't get hit with a vuln down
My clear parse had a 94% uptime, which was garbage but w/e. I think i even went content respecter too because something happended
just get spreadlo etc and ignore the earthquake huehue
or don't because optimizing O6S with all the LB cheese strats is pretty stupid
I uh... I just don't want to get into the plane. Please Adlo me.
just an adlo, and you'll probably die haha. Since I need manaward and some other kind of shield to survive it
Gimme dat uh... fence
palisade?
no haha
correct
Ah
so correct answer is, you'd want a shield and apoc and then maybe you'd live, brit. Or you can just roll GCD before hopping in plane last second, and come back out before the next GCD is up
Hahaha
I honestly don't care about Train and Demon. They're the same as Snake and Eye from the last tier. Guardian and Kefka are the only fights that matter to me and I don't even need anything from Guardian anymore
discord white
Nah, I haven't had much play time this week compared to when the offer was made.
I need to get duck on my damn friends list so I can see when they're online.
Hi
Himug
Mug <3
Heya
hi cup
I need to practice my NIN more. My DPS on that job is so trash lol
I wonder what daggers I have on my NIN. It'll probably be my last job to level to 70, though MCH may take that spot, not sure yet. Never liked either all that much
I feel like it's probably horde daggers, though
Sigh Nin
Is the herokuapp down?
seems like it might be having issues yeah
Of course it is the first time I want to use it since deltascape lol
heh, I occasionally looked at it, mostly to see how much Holis Cube got from all their padding. That, and the tether calc was another interesting tool
I like the tether calc, even though I'm sometimes really suboptimal on it.
it seems to have been down for quite some time, I wanted to check if my sicruda is doing anything worth keeping in my 2caster uwu but couldn't get it to work either, like 3-4 days ago
probably something with the fflogs update
Hey if 4/8 people clear an encounter for the week, will there be one chest still?
I think it becomes zero chest at four people.
are those HoH weapons actually worth getting, at 100 aether arm and armor strength? Or is there another i355/360 weapon thats easier to get
Or at least less grindy
Is that the 4.3 primal? What ilv should I have for that
I'd have to use a tome+rabanstre coin weapon (340 or 345) until I get to that
tsuki is 4.3 primal, yeah. min is 350 tho parties might ask for higher
I dont have any crafters or gatherers so no real way to make gil besides rare dungeon drops, so thats out. An FC member said theyd make me armor if I buy the creation items for them
so hopefully I can mix/match armor with the midway weapon and hit that mark, thanks
there's plenty of ways to make money without crafting or gathering
retainer ventures, treasure maps, potd/hoh
play a tank and do leveling roulette for adventurer in need bonus
do all of your roulettes
i guess I can start treasure maps. My retainer has been on over 100 ventures and is still only like level 48 or something so prob never gonna make $ from them
You can make money from them
regardless of lvl
plenty of low lvl items that still sell decently
look at your market
and do research
Yeaaah big server so nothing they can get sells well
Like, 300 gil per item at most but then I gotta run to the bell every hour for like, what, 2.5k
just because it doesn't sell for a lot
doesn't mean it doesn't sell well
if its sells consistently
its better than trying to sell 10mil+ item that moves slowly
Id rather just avoid using the marketboard lol, I go out and farm tons of logs and realize a month later they never sold and the price dropped 70%
Like my 500 wood logs that went from 1.1k/each to 150 each
Except the marketboard is where most of your gil is going to come from
so you basically don't want to make gil
is what you're saying
Mhm. So I cant make crafted gear 😛
Its whatever, gil is only really used for housing and I got a house already so grind done
i mean its also used for the gear we are literally telling you this
also raid food and pots if you can't make them
does your chocobo need to stay in the stable when you fed him to change color or can i take him with me again?
let him digest his food
yeah, can't take him out until the...8 hrs iirc are up
else you'll have to start all over again
Congrats.
It can be a pretty fun fight <3
o7s is a cool fight
o7s can go suck a dick
o7s is worst raid fight so far in SB
nah that's o1s
o7s at least has mechanics
o7s is gucci it's 2 targets half the time it's smn wet dream
o1s/o2s/o6s are far worse fights simply because striking dummy
o7s is just a pain in the ass
o5s design is pretty trash too, the whole adds->chimney->cars shouldn't even be in savage, but at the same time it would be boring af without that
just cause they are dummies=/ bad fight
it’s boring af anyway
well in those instances, the fact they are dummies make them bad fights
that subjective
you’re right
it is subjective
but I can still say it
just like you can say o7s is worst raid fight in sb
imagine that, opinions exist, more news at 7
o7s is literally against mch playstyle
every fight is 
not every fight
I don't mind tanking O7S
hali is good

hali is my favorite raid fight in sb
ye hali is good shit
so far
ye
hope o11s is like it
It’d be decent compared to alex but in stormblood it’s like best lmao
I hope cruise chaser comes back
but also i thought the tethers fucked with wildfire/ft
Tethers?
the swapping stack and all that
oh
he meant
And WF explodes right as you start walking with the debuff
I could be misremembering
It’s been a while
but it never directly fucked with WF
i have an 81 on hali as mch but i did it like twice so i have no idea how it went
godka is annoying
godka was nice because no downtime
i liked neo exdeath more
I hate downtime in fights
nahh I thought Neo was boring
dps literally did nothing
Aggro resets as tank felt even worse
try healing that shit 💦
i like kefka it's fun with the fakeout telegraph though it gets boring eventually
plus anything is better than exdeath black holes
yeah, 3 seconds
If you’re gonna give fuckloads of downtime to focus purely on mechanics you better give us some Octets or A8S intermissions you know
not
tethers 
yeah and it’s great
I’ll gladly deal with that downtime everytime
As I have
it’s not 3 mins tho it’s like a min and a half
it's barely anything anyhow
titan kill to ultima targettable is like over a minute already

it’s less if you kill before the second set of tethers
almost 5 gcds
I don’t consider sleep/confuse tethers “downtime” either way
Boss still targetable
Rook still autoing
dots are still ticking
yeah
i'm out of range for a gcd when doing west starstrafe prey it's tragic
Is Godka not being tanked mid??
but i'm also not trying to get in range cause i'm scared of hitting a melee
@lyric summit get close at 3rd meteor
idk he like flies off to do the future/past
no need to drop it on edge
you should have full uptime
same
gotta call east prey faster
melee should be at 5th bait by then
anyway tho Ultima downtime is nice since it’s a clean reset and you get a full reopener with pot
so u wont hit em
and even if u did
melee almost take 0 dmg at 2nd forsaken
aside from meteor
And the cutscene basically just gives you time to kind of refocus
Feels really good to take a breath before the hardest parts of that fight
yeah just put a checkpoint after lahabread or something gee
No
probably to lessen effects of mental taxing like it was in Ucob
hey, if it’s 12 minutes of perfection to see two more seconds of fight, that’s two more seconds closer to the clear
it’s slow but the progress is therr
and honestly
most groups wont see it again for a couple pulls
couple being generous
and I for one welcome it considering there’s nothing else to even do in game
Depends on group consistency
Sometimes we get 3 Ultima pulls in a row, sometimes we fuck up a gaol, sometimes people need to refocus
it gets more consistent over time
where u at
🙏
clean predations though
so suppression next and u win
good intermission into annihilation
nah there’s still primal roulette + orbs
A lot of healing
Don’t underestimate the intermissions between predation/annihilation/suppression
people do? 🤔
people relax after they deal with suppression, yes
can literally see it happen with groups
Everyone breathes after suppression is over
And that one lapse in judgement and boom
wait u talked about intermission
Hey garuda
yeah
he meant
i was talking about intermission
you realize enrage doesn’t happen right after suppression right?
well yes....
there is balls mechanic after
nvm just disregard me
then he enrages
Aetheric Boom is pretty spooky
for healers
the last phase in general is really spooky for healers
due to all the raidwide being lethal without full hp + mitigation
i was 🤔 for half this expert trying to figure out what the hell this astro's weapon was, a 320 dungeon drop weapon? that's not a thing
it was. normal quality crafted weapon, the thing that's like barely any better than the job quest reward
tragic
i was running HW dungeons for my relic then joined friends for a ridorana run on AST
forgot to unequip my i170 relic :)
I had a lighthouse run that has such a low overall dps that construct 7 was about to give us a 3rd math test lol
He never does math a 3rd time, he only ever does 2 sets of math.
I know that because I had a 25 minute fight with him in the first week
Tfw you realize the boss’s hp is designed with everyone having damage up stacks in mind
well that 25 minute fight had like 50 deaths or something
since it was the first few days of 4.3
Had a run with 130 deaths or something
oh that's good to know, i know we had overall low dps because my alliance B had 2 SMN and 2 RDM + 1 BRD that was doing dps range of 3k to 4k
and then alliance C was somehow still killing their adds slower than us.
the ala mhigan sets are still the bset doh dol sets right?
(best because universally usable, i know each class has one set higher
nah there's i340 stuff now
yanashi is gatherer?
yes
because i want to collect mats to have my omnicrafter friend craft me 70 gear. hq if i can get the mats otherwise nq and hq i do later 😃
this site's good too, sorts everything by gathered, drops, traded, sub-crafts and all that jazz
mhm
Final Fantasy XIV ARR Crafting Information and Planning
oh i guess it's exactly the same thing huh
if you've got your gatherers leveled can do aetherial reduction for them
caiman, dravanian bass, snow crab, sweatfish for fishing reductions
perlite and radiant astral moraine for mining reduction
aetherical what?
Some collectable items can be reduced down
kind of like the gathering version of desynthesis
you get crystals/clusters and depending on the item sand
how much you get/whether you get sand is dependent on the purity rating
oh ok
iirc you can get between like 20-30 clusters per reduction
might be a bit lower, since they kind of nerfed aetherial reduction is stormblood :\
cant seem to get the node to spawn. does it count if i just mine crystals around the area?
oh i thought the clock symbol means i just need to mine stuff around it
ahh no, that means its timed
oh. thought the ??? ones were the only timed ones
so the node only appears at specific times (eorzea time)
there's 2 types of timed nodes
the ephemeral and um
i forgot the other
the unspoiled stuff
Yeah unspoiled lol
ephemeral nodes stay up for 2hrs
and don't go poof once you've hit them once
you gather from them and then go quickly hit like 2-3 other nodes and the ephemeral node respawn
until the 2hr window is over
ah i see
i should also note that the length of the window is for eorzea time, if i'm remembering correctly
yeah it always is. would be stupid otherwise
for that crafting site you sent, how do i save my list / my progress on it?
there's circles next to each item, you just click on it to indicate you have gathered/crafted that item
and the website should save change you made automatically
no i mean save as in if i close the tab...
oh ok
or say if i want to send this list to my crafter
on the header, there's a little icon that looks like three circles linked together
click on that to generate a link
ah ok. also... the site has an alarm feature, how do i mark items for it? or does it just alert if any are available
need to go to the bell section of the site, and then find the items you want alerts for and add them to a list
thx
Hey peeps i was wondering if somebody could tell me ways to level up alt jobs fast. Everybody keeps saying PotD but i would like some more methods so i won't get bored by spamming potd D:
Daily Roulettes.
fates, pvp, beast tribes
pre 60 fates are pretty slow
eh they're not that bad with a chocobo
Im saying xp wise
also i would add hunting bills for 50-70
If you're fine with waiting, you can just spam whatever the highest level dungeon is, but yeah. Daily Roulettes > PotD > PVP (WIn) > FATEs/Beast Tribes > PVP (loss)
Alrighty
Is it worth making a party finder group for sigma normals? Ive done about 15 runs now and got 1 spring. Or is there any other way to get 350 gear?
eureka, crafted gear, the newest 24man (1 piece per week)
also tomestone (mendacity) gear is 360
also the newest dungeon drops i345 iirc
Yeah I’m capped on mendacity and only level 1 in Eureka (recently returned to the game) hmm I’ll have a look thanks
speaking of gear
roughly how much damage is a gear tier worth on BRD?
like going from all i350 to all i360
obviously sub stats are going to affect the exact number but I’ve been trying to get a rough idea
nice
does it count as enrage if it's not awoken 
sad
Now I am making my own UwU static and I need to gear up SCH
so I need to grind tomes
gonna spam Swallow's like a madman tomorrow after work
literally my first time healing savage
@scenic patrol ah so you ain't playing the bitch healer anymore good
im joking
not exactly
gearing SCH should be the easiest currently for me
since my main has the resources to do so
so many unused pages
and the fact that I am a level 70 SMN
comes nicely into play here
so no leveling necessary
why delet
that was amusing
I missed it what was it
someone complaining about content buyers/sellers in PF
and the next message mocking him for not clearing any content
Hahaha that is great
lmao the salt is real
NIN doesn't feel too bad in O8S. I just have to remember to do the TCJ opener instead of the Bhava one.
I also don't main NIN lol
o6s
Yeah, O6S makes sense.
yup
other fights u can do tcj opener
The reason I keep doing it is because it was the first one I got used to.
5th GCD Trick + Bhava.
What materia are people using for Astro now a days? I know SCH used to be crit and accuracy but I’m back and on Astro now
Accuracy materia

Man those were dark times
Man, the days of Accuracy caps
Uhhh, AST is pretty flexible, afaik.
Like all healers its Crit>det>sps
unless you want DH
whether or not you meld DH is a style choice
- vit right side for prog
I'd say that Piety over Det for prog
Yea vit is so prog
especially UwU
Press that aetherflow buttom
I have done builds for piety and sps for prog, how to heal a lot n barely dps 
👨❤️💋👨
anyhow Ravin I am going to heal UwU in a couple of weeks once the static is done
hopefully we'll be able to recruit a full team

the ucob thread where there were recurring comments requesting bahamut's feet and people were like "what is this shitty meme it's not good" but it was all one guy
got some time to gear up SCH to BiS
Nice, nice 👍
Lol extra pages r the best :V
I only healed a bit of savage so I also need to git gud

!charlogs omega johni bravo

green green grey
daily reminder that o7s prey is supreme cancer
Ah PLD privilege
Good idea SE
@sour solstice still better than healing it at 2nd set of dada/bilbio
I didnt find it that bad there
because of baiting atomic
bleed doesn't happen during baiting atomic
the one with the shockwave can be pretty annoying though yeah
that happens during the first though
it's not bad
2 bleeds into prey is monkaS
if u get 3rd bleed might as well leave grp
sexcog rip that vagina
tether is pretty cozy for prey
because if they dont have 40k when that shockwave hits rip
hey, a use for fey union
i didn't say the use for it
but yeah it comes pretty close to nullifying prey
throw an adlo out maybe
3% before the kill.... we have 3 lb bars full
.....
healer uses lb
where can I rant?
what fight is that
door clown or real clown
godka
but you killed it
did someone die?
low deeps
tragic
rip
well i wouldn't be mad by low deeps alone
but it was a sure kill with that lb
-.-
and yeah I'm salty
well I wanted to do it before the reset
can't I have to work tomorrow evening
which sucks :(
rip
I feel like if you're doing weeklies after reset and PF hosts aren't super.. "dumb" most would let you into a weekly duty complete if you linked a 1% enrage log
that's how I got my first o7s with xeno 
ultima isnt enrage
that means u got bad healers
not mitigating it
there is still 10 secs cast loj
I cleared o5 and o6 last night
now I'm trying o7
can't get a party that can consistently get to virus
kms
Xeno plays on EU?
when virus happen

LMAO
Eat a missle
run into people with ink
face airforce towards the party
throw tentacle in a random direction
fuck up biblio

time to get back to wiping at biblio
yep
but it's like
people tyr to squeeze
1 gcd
out of the boss
then fail to make it to the point
like
if you can't be consistent stop fucking up
rEEEEEEEEE
ok bai
you can do it <3
Thanks guys! 😊
Your worst stat
still not a bad stat, important to note
Oh yeah
since that's a very common misconception
It's not a dead stat
it's just, the other options are worth a good bit more for RDM
no reason to have an SPS meld ever
dh?
Direct Hit
Direct Hit
ok
What type of content are you looking to mainly doing?
If it's savage and you are starting now I recommend having some VIT melds
On right side accessories
crimson cider?
can confirm, am lazy dps/tank main and just use cider
I wanna buy him but it jumped back in price on gilgamesh. I hope it goes back down below 10 mil soon
got tired of pugging o7s. At one point I was top dps of the party, with dps doing shit like at best 3.5k. Join a party with "virus prog", can't get to virus. Someone offered me a spot in a static so I guess I'll take that. Feelsbadman
Yeah PUGs for o7s prog seem very hit and miss
I was lucky enough to get a couple that were decent enough to let me go past virus reliably. But my friend couldn't get any that was able to even reach virus
And that's someone decent enough to clear shinryu EX.
Shinny is a questionable benchmark
I'll be mildly uncomfortable if my NIN clears the tier before my DRG.
if nin can clear be4 drg doesnt mean you are bad drg
Yeah, that's true.
Hey brit
Did duck carry you yet
He spent the entire day yesterday telling me it was the day to get you your clear
Did he pull a big bamboozle
if you end up needing another dps, lemme know, I'll be around tonight
and likely my last night to do any raiding sort of stuff until I get back from vacation, since I don't especially wanna raid on my laptop while I'm gone
<3
<3
<3 <3
@dull radish have a fun one
Thanks <3
@unreal flax 
<3
saw enrage for o7 finally. Feeling confident with a clear soon
damnit people on tonberry and the JP center as a whole open your damn eyes at all times during tsukuyomi fight
don't feel bad. it's aether and primal too
dude look
our smn pulled the big bamboozle not me
11pm
shes 2 hours away from home
Jp is prob still better than aether and primal
lmao :pogclamp:
still people run around like bind bat during the fan AOE
oh and that BLM turret that does not want to move at all
carry me UwU
is eureka the best way to gear new blood up
i got a couple new players who want to get started on the endgame and i figure that's the best way to go about it
not entirely sure tho
HoH has a solid weapon, right?
HoH weapon is decent for some classes. Inferior to TsukEx weapon for others.
for a drg?
if you're going for some high sks build then maybe
but dh/det (tsuku) is generally better than dh/sks
TsukEx weapon is decent for DRG. It's kinda alright from HoH.
Both are better than the raw i360 weapon
!item Otegine
will prolly run him through hoh when he's at 70
aetherpool is shared for all jobs, plus you can hoh at 61 @glass gale
Right now, my DRG is at like 1275SkS lmao
It's more than just the spear
I have the Diamond headpiece and tomes bracelet, which both have SkS.
Why am I doing this? No fuckin clue.
tragic
september is speculated
I know
Looool holy shit.
Hum, how can a physical DPS get the pull in debuff in O7s ?
I got it as MNK and kinda killed the group as I just placed for regular melee positionning
in virus phase. people get magnets
if they aren't then the farthest and the 2nd farthest dps (which happened to be you) got it
they have to be there before virus starts
so like, once the thing shows on screen they gotta book it
So I guess a distance DPS was badly placed
I'm barely getting used to O7s so when things like that happen I get a tad lost
4-4.5k DPS as MNK is enough to clear this ?
no
aim for at least 5k
or even higher since mnk has high personal dps off the bat
!faq mnkguide
this should help you
Thanks, I guess I need to look at this again
Also try to not play too safe
Especially with missiles
Their hitbox seems pretty weird
don't sweat missiles, just react to them calmly
Probably doesn't help that I play from across the atlantic :/
also note that there are multiple spots that are always safe
and you probably know this already but use your gcds before they become available
and try not to clip your gcd
Yeah I spam them before they're available
IIRC the guide says forbidden chakra can be dual oGCDed but I never managed it
Oh
Always ?
That's really good to know
yep
That should help a bunch if the boss isn't tanked too far off
and idk too much about mnk
but if you said you're playing across the atlantic I'm assuming your ping is high
and you prob can't double weave without clipping
That's what I assumed 😦
Maybe I could learn to use potions
I just stick to food for now
a lot of people (including me) don't use pots that often
it's too expensive imo
food is up 100% of the time while I'm raiding though
Oki
it'll definitely help your dps though
although following the guide is your best bet at increasing your dps to what it should be
the balance discord is also a pretty good resource if you have any questions
(when they're not shitposting)
Frey
I believe I got the basic level somewhat down. But I really struggle to keep uptime during some phases
wat i do
you're both my friend
so i'm not helping either
:P
not your co healer
but the group you subbed to
I told him you're AST main
He keep saying you don't know the basic of healer
and Opener with cure II
🤔
Compare parses
the only reason why i cure 2
Only way to settle the issue
is cause tank sometimes randomly dies to downburst+spiney if I don't c2
☕
sometimes parse doesn't tell all
so it's better to ask
202 cure II in 16 pulls
i see
tank not using CD? or no apoc?
I have to babysit the tank during some points
hey Tsun
hi mug o/
cause sometimes that guy also forgot excog
Thanks for your help Frey !
same
yea ik
@pure yoke i never heard JP with viet accent
yet
one day
ohhh
no worries, I'm not blaming either lol
I used to be better at regen uptime
also, the whole group only he's blaming
so it's fine
the others had no issue on you
the healer just mad a bit because he isn't seeing titan
try to join as AST next time !
you can do better
but remember
I already switched from ast to whm for ult :(
if he's also complaining about my dps
I used to regen at the start of head on
I literally have to stop dpsing
thats pretty 
are you atleast maintaining divine benis?
ye, he said you overhealed too much
doing it off cd
cause garuda dies to quickly for raidbuffs
since Divine Beni is insanely efficient
Divine Benison is essentially like
almost 10k free healing every 30 seconds
like close to 90% overheal on 2nd cure III
75% 3rd cure III
80% 4th cure III
1st and 5th is good
my sch never indoms there so i just cure 3 away
ideally Indom should be first to be used
unless it's on cooldown
oh garuda
nevermind
i think that's what they did, Succor > indom > deploy off Succor
also
I don't think most WHM uses assize for garuda aoe thing
seems like they use it for add dps
DEEPS
I just shoot an ogcd
can you hit all 3 with Nastrond?
you get like
1 gsk and 1 nastrond
on the adds
for the 2nd set
you get no nastrond on first set
do you still hit the boss?
you cleave the boss with gsk
on the first set
after my 2nd 5th combo
I do GSK -> Doom Spike -> Dragonfire Dive -> Sonic Thrust
then I heavy thrust and impulse drive the spiny
then when the boss comes back I disembowel it
@pure yoke do u keep autos on spiny or garuda
garuda until heavy thrust
oof
after calming down
yeah i suck
I'll work towards using regens more
and try not to overheal over my cohealer i guess
I'm not gonna lie I was actually pretty mad
but objectively speaking he's right
no excuses for me
I kinda wish he told me up front though
It's easy to take that stuff personally, understandable
