you can try some extreme trials once you gear up to get used to the difficulty
scenic patrol
Ex trials are more lax in difficulty and getting into em is easier
Since they are less prone into what I would call the trappening of PF
scenic patrol
Yeah, but imagine trying to get a Chaos PF 2 chest clear
It's infinitely more trappy because vets can't help clear it
Due to how weekly resets are for savage
quick verge
okay but imagine
the average savage pf trap
but you multiply that by the amount
of uhhh
brain cells they have functioning
wet stag
That makes them like
Not trappy at all
Which is wrong
It should be divide that by the number of brain cells that have functioning
wet stag
Oh
quick verge
100(7*4)

wet stag
Where'd the 7 come from

Ok thanks

construct 7 makes me want to deconstruct myself
unreal flax
That's actually funny lol
But yeah, EX fights in PF are just as trappy as savage, potentially moreso
quick verge
you ever see enrage on tsukuyomi ex
unreal flax
Cuz...
I only ever saw enrage in PF.
That's why I only ever got the axe from that fight. The shit dropped during the farm that a friend snuck me into, and PF never cleared again.
I didn't even play WAR back then.

now hold up construct 7 is fun
and not knowing what a prime number is is not a valid excuse

Just hit 60 with samurai, should I grab the hellfire gear to hold me over?
unreal flax
If you don't already have the Shire gear, go for it. If you're using Poetics, just jump straight to the Shire Pankratist's set
normal sable
1 Isn't prime
Also yea don't waste on hellfire
shire is far better
and can be augmented
augmented pank shire accessories are literally the best tome investment you can make since they're usable by MNK/SAM/DRG/WAR/PLD/DRK

Hey guys just a quick question, is it possible to downgrade eureka gear? For example, from Anemos down to +2. Need it for ucob

is it really a pad if an ast doesn't get any spires/ewers
and you're highest dps
😏
@steep iris does
uwu
boreal edge
no u
steep iris
i don't pad myself but it's fun to pad other people
boreal edge
i like to pad grey ppl so they become purple
quick verge
the best part of padding is joining frey's parties with mildly skilled players
boreal edge
quick verge
that way they can carry me
steep iris
i mean if you actually wanted to gauge someone's abilities you'd look at medians
quick verge
what if they pad all of their runs
boreal edge
medians are meme
dull radish
I usually just look for a person's best non-padded parse
quick verge
memedians
steep iris
it could be real but most of the time it's usually hidden logs
dull radish
and I get annoyed if I have to go down pretty far to find one
boreal edge
i could get orange medians if i just upload my orange logs
steep iris
that's what i'm addressing rn spearya lol
dull radish
xiva is pretty neat to see how badly folks play regardless of numbers, too
steep iris
I plug my own logs into xivrdps to see how much rdps my cards gave
this week's 9s, 1k from balance alone
quick verge
okay how do you read this
steep iris
i also padded my blm one run in 9s and got 850 rdps from giving him solo cards
iirc
middle column is how much rdps the whole raid got from the buff
steep iris
if you hover over the -# on the right
quick verge
ok i get it
steep iris
it'll tell you how much rdps the individual got from each raid buff
quick verge
steep iris
@boreal edge get on primal and join my weekend pad pfs 👀
steep iris
monkaS
boreal edge
your padding will cost me doubleweaving
steep iris
10% of his dps so it seems about right
~500 for slashing alone, ~300 from other raid buffs
quick verge
the real pad is slashing debuff
steep iris
also big fan of contagion
quick verge
😏
dull radish
I would also like contagion <3
steep iris
i don't get contagion 😩
quick verge
yeah contagion is pretty nice when misaligned so it can fit in my req window
steep iris
would have done 4.1-4.2k with contagion

my second objective to join one of memories' pfs so i can rescue them into aoes
for the first beyond defense
uhhhh
in a way that won't get each other killed
melee on cardinals usually
ranged somewhere not on the boss
yes
for uh
superliminal steel(?)
melee usually take cardinals
and ranged do w/e
2 groups
1 goes west of eye
1 goes south of eye
south will adjust for resonance
oh
after pile pitch
mt drags omega center
lyric summit
keep it on the edge, move middle for the 2nd suppression
quick verge
faces towards eye
no that's
after
uhhh
the knockback
where they drag it center
lyric summit
or you can keep it on the edge away from the eye facing outside and have people adjust
lyric summit
probably some glaxy brain blm no movement strat
quick verge
yeah
people stack southeast for pile pitch during blade
relative to eye
hahahaha
last galleon
are you getting desperate
quick verge
just uh
last galleon
i know i did with my trash static and ended up pugging o12s
last galleon
idk if i got lucky but the two groups i got were not bad at all
we either 1 shot door or took 2 tries each lockout
this was for HW2+ prog parties
steep iris
@wheat gate you're gonna have hell with pugs
last galleon
memories you're used to unreal strat for HW right?
steep iris
rot issues or wat
last galleon
yeah
so if you know it pugging it shouldn't be too different
but make sure people are actually talking about unreal strat when they say it
i've gotten into a party where they claimed unreal then linked the fucking fennek gif
wanted to kms
steep iris
ayy lmao
last galleon
primal
last galleon
yea
steep iris
healers just further
last galleon
it's mostly a pain for healers running to narnia for no reason
quick verge
uwu
steep iris
if your comp is ast/sch there shouldn't be a problem
last galleon
like it's one thing to make adjustments for uptime or whatever, but the intercard defamations literally have no purpose in that strat
quick verge
do you die if you eat 2 defamations
quick verge
nice
last galleon
if you have nothing and get hit by two defams you might just take the damage. i'm not super sure about this though.
last galleon
well if you die from the pure damage then your own defam will go off and chain react a wipe most likely
i've heard people say they survived the pure damage but it's not something i'd bother to verify
yea same
like 20 ticks lul
khira is gonna fix it once the new uploader is rolled out, last i heard
but for now we just have to deal with 50-100dps loss each time
last galleon
supposedly someone is rewriting their uplo;ader
steep iris
oooo
last galleon
and so a lot of fixes are kinda blocked on that
steep iris
also doesn't shadowflare work on both m/f
last galleon
mm?
steep iris
regardless of debuff
last galleon
the problem is SMN ticks get wrongly attributed to SCH because fflogs doesn't have originator information
and for some reason it just tends to get that attribution wrong a lot in m/f
steep iris
rip
last galleon
so on a regular fight i'd lose like 80+dps outside of my control
quick verge
inverse padding
steep iris
wow i can't believe biscuit is toxic
quick verge
no!!!!
last galleon
i think with the new uploader khira is addressing the dot stealing after firewall too?
steep iris
that's how it goes
last galleon
yeah m/f is really wonky for logs atm
i think some of it might be end of fight issues?
like some damage gets counted as overkill, some doesn't
quick verge
wow
steep iris
overkill maybe?
quick verge
i can't believe you left dwt without deathflare
i mean m/f don't "die" until both reach 0
or 1
last galleon
but sometimes they'll do that then chain another laser shower cast
steep iris
ya but they can get stuck in actions
last galleon
so i don't know what fflogs treats as the 'end' in that case
dull radish
there's a lot that's annoying about m/f parsing haha
quick verge
i don't see why it wouldn't count though
dull radish
^
steep iris
i've had quite a lot of m/f logs with substantial overkill iirc 😩
last galleon
the gcd was not worth it...........
last galleon
gain 12 pot lose a deathflare
risk outweighs the reward imo lol
it's ok just teasing ❤
i whiff deathflares when someone dies and i get distracted.
i
saw
that
steep iris
OwO
quick verge
i remember this one pull of o11s i accidentally ended two combos with shield lob instead of ra/goring
steep iris
do you do actually press 7890

Regarding padding
If it's the kind of no effort padding that's just solo balances and drg tethers I'm not a fan
But if it's a god pad that takes effort from everyone to do
Like raffter's 7k on 5s
Huge fuckin respect
quick verge
the only god pad will be the 10k dps blm
wet stag
high ether
has there been such a thing yet?
quick verge
that's actually a really chad comp
wet stag
Yeah but
That's a good pad
Bc they did shit like save trick or whatever
U know
A pad that actually took effort
high ether
i hated how when i did o5 with the WAR from my former static he'd burn straight through the ghosts and be out in a second while i actually had to tank through the tankbuster
i was not edgy enough to beat that
sadly his latency wasn't low enough for war strat
wet stag
Did you play drk
If you did
You could kill it before the buster
Not fast enough to skip, but barely fast enough to avoid the buster completely
scenic patrol
How the heck did he burn though the ghost without IR
And if he had IR
It's an even bigger thonk
storm frostBOT
stable basin
Died to the stupid arm thing because I went way out with my fire circle and forgot to go back lol
high ether
but he didn't quite load fast enough
scenic patrol
high ether
he couldn't have been off by much
wet stag
Ir decimate the adds
high ether
oh
high ether
I don't think it even mattered
it might've been normal mode too, it's been quite some time ago
high ether
we disbanded our static after o3s because it nearly broke the FC apart
wet stag
There's no tank ghost in normal
scenic patrol
Normal mode doesn't have a buster on the ghost
high ether
yeah I know
scenic patrol
It's just whacking on it til it dies
high ether
you don't need to insult me with a rare pepe 
I just very distinctly remember me starting to hit my rotation on a ghost when he suddenly said "done!" over voice chat
and I was like "what the fuck man" and he just said "fell cleave"
wet stag
Lmao
high ether
fucking fell cleave
I would trade in any of my skills for fell cleave
even The Blackest Night

I was joking, I wouldn't trade in The Blackest Night even for Akh Morn

scenic patrol
Not mentioning, mentioning is mostly fine, just don't be an asshole
Anyhow the amount that square actually cares about ToS breaking is close to none aside from when peoples feelings were hurt
You can buy clears, buy Gil, parse, mod, zoom hack, hack the game to get higher dps than possible and you won't get banned
unreal flax
remember the single player enfeeblement items being used in ex trials? lol
quaint flower
Whether se decides to act or not depends how big the drama is, if unga bunga wouldn't be sky rocketed through reddit we would still have it today
In case of ACT they do not act because they kind of can't, unless you will say it in the chat they can't prove you are using it
boreal edge
idk if m/f is a fucking curse to my static or what sometimes we pass shield/blades fine then we start wiping at shield/blades followed by wipes at earlier parts of fight that we seen millions of times already
its been fucken 5 weeks now
fucken hell m/f is a savage fight on its own not even close to faust
unreal flax
Isn't M/F almost twice as long as Kefka?
boreal edge
its 8 mins fight
kefka was 6:55
so its 1 min longer except
you can afk 1 min in kefka
boreal edge
there is no breaks on m/f
boreal edge
the fight is no joke
its alot harder than even o11s
and o10s
which is supposed to be faust like
i got this reply from balance when i was ranting about it
unreal flax
Wow.
That's pretty nuts.
I don't know, man. Maybe I'll get back into raiding and shit. Maybe one day.
stable basin
Final has like 3 mechanics in it
prolly super braindead as dps where you only need to be awake during HW
hybrid rapids
Is it such a hard thing?
I know I was in a group of 7 cleared
But it doesn’t feel hard at all
The dash and combos
steep iris
i don't think it's that hard either
i think it's more like maybe someone always messing up
hybrid rapids
Yes, maybe someone always trying to move at last second I think
steep iris
cause it's really easy to mess up in m/f
stable basin
Shield and dice are the only hard parts of MF but dice is pretty simple to execute once you understand it
steep iris
people not stacking/spreading in time?
stable basin
I keep getting clipped by the last bladework on shield >.>
steep iris
ya
hybrid rapids
Compared to ex death, it should be easier
steep iris
5 weeks is too long
boreal edge
sometimes ppl not spread far enough / sometimes ppl cant make it to beyond strength / sometimes lack of healing at fire spread / sometimes ppl not run asap after beyond strength / sometimes tanks get no healing before the swap
steep iris
wat's your healer comp
boreal edge
ast/whm
steep iris
o...
steep iris
if your ast ES on cd (with small delay somewhere)
boreal edge
right after stack on pile pitch
steep iris
3rd one top people off before dice
4th one shield/blade
5th one top people off before dice again
6th one shield/blade
7th is lb phase
boreal edge
he is doing exactly that
steep iris
i also pop my ES before fire
hybrid rapids
I think it’s better to give log to analyse the issue, latest wipes
steep iris
during shield
hybrid rapids
Maybe in the balance
steep iris
so beyond defense>pop ES>fire 3 spread
then I CU when everybody stacks on male after spread
boreal edge
i still think its just consistency
hybrid rapids
Hmm, consistency is something maybe you have to work on ya
boreal edge
stay mid during shield?
hybrid rapids
Imagine always taking 60-80% of lockout time on m/f, and left the little for final
boreal edge
we all stack in mid after bliz
steep iris
u know how everybody spreads for fire 3 after beyond defense
just let 1 healer stay middle so they can cast w/e heal
hybrid rapids
7 people easier to spread too
boreal edge
so far blades is no issue anymore to us
hybrid rapids
Spearya should learn healer 
boreal edge
shield still is
boreal edge
last thing i healed from raiding standpoint was coil
steep iris
well other than that do you know what other thing causes deaths/wipes
steep iris
people should know how to estimate fire 3 size from before split
if someone's too far and male chooses them then :D D:
boreal edge
it didnt take me much to stop fucking up shield/blades
steep iris
well, even if m doesn't choose them they prob won't be able to reach anyway
if they want they can also sprint
boreal edge
but yeah that shit been roadblock for long time
boreal edge
ppl still need i380?
stable basin
That's how much hot tail it took for me to leave my first static
boreal edge
its week 10 now
steep iris
hot tail wasn't a big issue for my previous static
exa morn was tho T_T
my co week 1 and week 2 super chad
hybrid rapids
I just...heal a lot
steep iris
i don't think hw2 is that bad assuming everybody actually studies what's going on
cause it's the same as hw1
stable basin
It's the same movement as HW1
steep iris
the only thing that people have to "change" is that people have to actually make sure they past their rot
stable basin
Just like need to be careful not to run through the aids station too early
stable basin
I did wipe us on HW2 today because the healer stood off to the side for the rescue and I didn't make sure I got his cooties
stable basin
lol
steep iris
still happens in my weeklies REE
stable basin
Tank getting minced by autos is common too especially if you have blue tank take it to start
steep iris
ya
if defamation tank vokes late
then other tank ded hehe
also tank hp immediately after hw is very scary
same thing after archive all stack/spread
stable basin
Healing short stack dps and the two tower dps before ion both seem scary
basically everything about healing HW
steep iris
healing defamation targets before ion efflux 😩
i always need to helios and ask for indom
hybrid rapids
HW2 I did a lot mistakes on not moving fast away after passed pinky debuff
It exploded in like 3 seconds flat after passed ?
steep iris
i think i killed my co this week
hybrid rapids
lmao
steep iris
cause i ran back in a little to st regen short stack/tank
... my static uses fennek strat 
and then my co died to my rot
steep iris
also still mildly tilted that we didn't kill before 2nd archive all
hybrid rapids
lol
scenic patrol
most of the bad things I heard about Fennek can be fixed with coordination
but then again if you are gonna coordinate
might as well use Unreal Uptime
or a more braindead prog strat like GTL
hybrid rapids

you have melee kill each other with blaze using arms length. Caster and ranged kill each other
caster with surecast, ranged just gets knocked away
dull radish
tanks/healers get hit by ranged blaze
dull radish
well they can always take the knockback if they really want to
dull radish
no, it's a singular knockback
quaint flower
i mean if you will stack both of them
dull radish
nobody is in a position to get hit by two
you don't get knocked away from your own blaze
quaint flower
I misunderstood, nevermind 
dull radish
audi stacks?
lyric summit
yeah something something latency
dull radish
yeah sometimes it registers damage in the wrong order
so you take the lethal damage before the tiny damage, and the tiny damage kills you
it "works" but sometimes the game will just outright kill you if it feels like it
quick verge

at that point you wouldn't even need to do the stack mechanic
just let tanks CD through them

ppl already do no stack
It was kinda annoying last tier but now p sure it's just rampart and have fun
Real mad that tbn is like 1 second too short for it

Or you know
At least fast enough that you can just afk through the intermission
And not die
thorn bear
i'm super late but byakko had a low dps check for deltascape lol
I think it was like sub 20k
so really you shouldn't have seen enrage or 30+% on hakutei

pve oriented
casual endgame content gets pretty boring, challenging content takes time and organized groups to do
rapid sapphire
current end game is a couple expert dungeons you only really play for tomestones and to cry that the minion won't drop. then there's alphascape where the other players are the real challenge (findong ones who can be on the right when the boss does somethong on its left)
(off topic of dungeons and alphascape) of course I can't decide on the other end game, glamour (black mage weapon to be exact) 
full wave
Endgame consists of running roulettes, 8 man extreme trials, 8 man Normal and Savage raids, 24 man raids, pvp (very small community) and of course glamour. @lyric dawn
Oh right amd them there's Eureka and Deep Dungeon
high ether
fights are very scripted but have a lot of mechanical complexity to them
full wave
And running treasure maps
high ether
and the pace of the combat is based on bursts
hybrid rapids
people won't understand eureka or deep dungeon by name...i think
high ether
tank takes a lot of damage that he has to mitigate, healers have to heal the tank, everyone goes back to DPSing
lot of bursty raid-wide damage too
full wave
Eureka is a good old fashioned old school grind. You kill a few thousand mobs to spawn boss mobs and you get a shiny weapon and armor set.
high ether
I think that is the main difference between this MMO and others that are similar, healing spells are very strong so healers have a lot of time to dps
full wave
@high ether Well ya it is Final Fantasy
Final Fantasy healers ain't no bitches.
Look at Yuna
hybrid rapids
more like, there's no much incoming damage
there's a lot downtime in a fight
bosses don't constantly output damage
high ether
yeah exactly, highly burst based
full wave
I wonder why that changed
tawdry matrix
Oh oops :(
full wave
I remember Twintania ripped tank's assholes open and both healers had to focus on the main tank constantly
And this was while they were in tank stance
high ether
you still have fights like that
o12 even in normal mode has a part where both tanks take crazy amounts of damage
full wave
I just think they can stand to up raid wide damage a bit
lyric dawn
Hmm I see
full wave
Are you playing the free trial or have you bought the game? @lyric dawn
lyric dawn
I already got the 3 expansions myself and raiding static and what not just the game feels dull to me
full wave
The trial lasts until the heat death of the universe. You can level all jobs and crafting and gathering classes to 35
Oh
lyric dawn
And of the stuff everyone mentioned it is just idk
Not sure how to explain it but it is very que do something, que again and etc..
Let alone lvling an alt class, que que que que que or deep deep deep deep
full wave
Ya. My problem with XIV is that it tries to appeal to a wide audience. That isn't bad but it makes the game feel "unfocused* at times.
I've never leveled using deep dungeon
Even for dps I used dungeons and dailies and fates.
lyric dawn
But mainly an end game is cap ur weekly, do dailies, and practice and die or kill savage
For example with all the bad in BDO the open world of me going somewhere and just grinding mobs for the fuck of it is more appealing to me but eh
full wave
Ya I get it
lyric dawn
I mean I am excited for the new expansion a bit but then it just the hype within me died cuz it will be the same recipe
full wave
Eureka is where I go to grind mobs. You probably wouldn't like it if you don't like the battle system in XIV.
lyric dawn
With the new eureka zones it is just feels idk not sure how to put it
boreal edge
eureka isnt good or bad either
its just there
for those who got nothing to do with their lives
quaint flower
If you have nothing to do, you cannot sleep, you have no other games to play, no other content to do and like Spearya said you have completely no idea what to do with your life, eureka is good
quick verge
eureka is better than savage
glossy musk
Eureka's pretty fun, plus it provides your weekly requirement of salt for a healthy diet in only 1 hour
plucky raptor
Yep, if the fates keep popping you can hit the weekly cap in an hour.
lyric summit
i think the 4 random lasers on people without tethers are distanced based
but that's all
oh
yeah that's random
but if you die from standing out too far then it's your fault, get back in the stack after splash and stack damage goes out
dull radish
for my group we just have a rough assigned spots for everyone around there
and when you run out, you go to your spot, and adjust a bit based on the AoEs

make a macro that gives people 1-5 + chain1-3 markers and pop it when you're attacking the fist or something

if everyone on the left side gets it, then folks move over a bit to make room

if you're doing a strat where tank takes solo stack in HW, it's a great spot for apoc. I like apoc during tb monitors during patches otherwise
quick verge
is it possible to use displacement/elusive jump during level checker and not die
some drg is about to commit not alive
dull radish
I've heard displacement is tight but doable on level checker, but haven't run the fight on RDM, myself
glossy musk
Our RDM has yet to live if he uses it
to the point where he's taken it off his bars because he keeps doing it
stable basin
I think they could use it like standing on the edge and jumping back off-center enough to miss the death puddle
Question is why
heavy mist
There no reason and you'd lose uptime and gcds

omega is fun
last galleon
Can’t displacement during level checker
Literally not enough space to not die unless you want to try rescue memes
Blaze and level checker are the two places where you just can’t use displacement
glossy musk
I mean blaze won’t kill you
So you coooooould do that
Your healer will just fucking hate you
last galleon
T r u e if you want to grief your healers
Tsunami is tight but doable. Cyclone is doable normally but impossible if your tank does the uptime strat with boss positioning.
quick verge
minmax dps
have tank pull nw after blaze
displace during umbra smash
corpse a corpse after
full wave
I just realized that tanks were fucming me with uptime in O9S
During Cyclone does Chaos have to be right at the edge or can he be kinda in the center?
wet stag
I bring him straight north and slightly to the side
Then turn him sideways so melee can hit positionals
stable basin
I pulled him to the corner until someone showed me that
stable basin
And then after he jumps you can pull him to the edge of the cyclone for the second knockback
That lets dps hit positonals/face towards the cyclone without losing any gcds
quick verge
ya
wet stag
Only thing is that is makes invulning the orbs awkward as all hell
meager walrus
should i even bother with this game if i'm beyond bored of every class at 70 or should i just wait until SBr
I guess i am on an RP server i could give that a spin
is that the real endgame
RP and glamour

quick question: the two drk bis sets only differ in the chest piece, which one is better tho?
augmented scaevan vs omega
wet stag
Depends on the sks you're going for
coarse radish
otherwise are they equal?
wet stag
Pretty much
coarse radish
like exactly equal?
coarse radish
which one is 20 more?
wet stag
Crit chance alone can cause a 200dps variance
20 dps is honestly not even worth considering unless you're seriously gunning for 
You play whichever one has a more comfy sks for you
coarse radish
ok ty
nah i have serious ping issues so thats irrelevant
i only want it just cause lol
wet stag
If you have serious ping issues you might wanna go for the slower one
coarse radish
ye
coarse radish
hmm
wet stag
It's like another 5 dps loss but again
Not even worth considering
If it helps you play better it's a dps gain 
coarse radish
lol
ive found that sks doesn't prevent the clipping issues tho regardless of how high or low it is
even in arr if i double weave i clip lol
wet stag
Yeah but if you clip your gcd any gain you would've gotten from sks is negated
coarse radish
thats true
vocal umbra
8 dex vs 144 crit........
wet stag
Dex
vocal umbra
on brd
wet stag
Uh
vocal umbra
😪
coarse radish
i should make my own bis set then with minimal sks
vocal umbra
i got omega ring off of chest, but until i can clear o10 i’m stuck with scaevan
coarse radish
wear ring for ilvl for now id say
vocal umbra
earring*
wet stag
Yeah the thing about drk
Is that it loves all substats
So you should be good either way
coarse radish
kk
wet stag
I main drk so if you need me to check ur logs go ahead and ping me
Or post on drk questions in the balance
quick verge

wet stag

quick verge
