#

so it could be like

#

20 hours open and the s rank hasn't spawned yet

#

or even immediately as the s rank opens up on ariyala

stable basin
#

wow @mellow idol that's a really nice picture

trim finch
#

Is there anything at lv60 miner worth gathering that might make some money

fiery bone
#

from regular nodes or onspoiled?

stable basin
boreal edge
#

seems padded

stable basin
#

That's not padded

#

act just had a fit

#

I've never seen it have that big of a difference

boreal edge
#

wait thats

#

dtps

#

not dps

stable basin
#

dtps ๐Ÿค”

boreal edge
#

@stable basin i dont understand yet

stable basin
#

usually ACT shows numbers that are within 50~150 DPS of FFLogs

#

SMN and BLM are notable for being especially inaccurate on ACT but usually not more than 400 or so

#

1550 is a way bigger difference than I've ever seen

boreal edge
#

maybe act thought everything DHcrit

stable basin
#

Hmm

#

Most of it seems to be dot overestimation

#

ACT gave both dots about 2.5x as much damage as FFLogs

#

And the difference makes up about 1450 dps

daring edge
#

Do you guys think its worth the time to do allied and normal raid roulettes?

stable basin
#

Ally raid is very good exp and quick queues for dps especially

#

Normal raid gives pretty bad exp though

quick verge
#

free tomestones

daring edge
#

soo allied raid it is

opal hollow
#

does anyone know what food cap is?

#

i have the 40 min food from fc buffs

lyric summit
#

1h

opal hollow
#

it goes over 1hr

lyric summit
#

it doesn't

#

if you use 2 foods with the 40 min buff then you waste 20 mins of food

opal hollow
#

mine lasted 80 mins tho

#

if i pop 2 eggs right now, the 1hr doesn't disappear

#

without the fc food buff it doesn't go over 1hr though

#

im assuming the food cap is 2x your food but idk

#

i've heard it reaches 2 hrs but i can't find any info

lyric summit
#

oh yeah

#

up to 80 mins then I guess

#

90 with the squadron buff

lyric summit
#

what do you do on byakko as a melee when he does the line aoe while standing between 2 bubbles

#

do you just stand in a safespot and cry

unreal lance
#

Yes

#

You can greed it sometimes though depending on ball placement and where he lands

quick verge
#

you can eat the line aoe

#

implying you have like

#

47k+ hp

unreal lance
#

you healer will hate you, but ok

quick verge
#

it's byakko

#

pop second wind and bloodbath

#

he's not gonna be alive for much longer

unreal lance
#

fair point

quick verge
#

and the only person that's going to take damage after that is the tank eating hakutei

thorn bear
#

you say that like somehow people doing byakko farms

#

having increased in dps dealt

lyric summit
#

yeah byakko is probably the worst to farm atm

thorn bear
#

i'd love to see people with 370 weapons

#

fail to get the tiger below 20%

lyric summit
#

people with 370 weapons fail to skip the tank LB part with soloheal

#

you need everyone doing at least blue dps for that

#

so basically impossible in pf

#

somehow healers still don't know they have to heal the bubble dps who's at like 10% hp dropping the bubble

last silo
#

Tiger didn't seem that hard. Is there an extreme version of it?

lyric summit
#

there's extreme versions of all SB and HW trials

#

so, yes

last silo
#

Well that's convenient

silent vessel
#

Extreme isnt that bad. I beat it with a group on our second try. He just requires more running around

#

lol

last silo
#

Oh great. I have to go back and do Fractal Continuum to unlock the 70 roulette again

fringe granite
#

Fractal is a fun dungeon

hybrid rapids
#

Hard?

#

Or normal

#

One of my favourite dungeon is

#

Sloppy

lyric summit
#

the warring triad boss is one of the best dungeon bosses this expansion tbh

#

but the chimera+cyclops trash pulls are annoying af

last silo
#

Well, I had to do normal to unlock hard.

zinc vortex
#

im ngl every time they release a new dungeon im like

#

they cant possibly make a more fun dungeon boss than x

#

and like 50% of the time im positively surprised

#

i think the first dungeon boss i genuinely enjoyed was the uhh

#

flower lady in saint mocianne's

#

belladonna?

lyric summit
#

4.4 dungeon bosses are kinda bleh

zinc vortex
#

i havent run the dungeons since release day what were they again

#

we got uh

#

the burn right?

#

and mocianne hard

lyric summit
#

yeah

zinc vortex
#

yeah nothing too noteworthy from the top of my head

lyric summit
#

2nd one in arboretum with the sliding floor is probably the best one out of the 2 dungeons

zinc vortex
#

ye fair

#

i agree

quick verge
#

you mean the 2nd boss of the burn

zinc vortex
#

the one that goes vroom

#

and nyeoum

#

?

lyric summit
#

the one that disappears on 5th gcd when i want to do damage on any job whatsoever

zinc vortex
#

glad i play an easy mode DPS on the side

#

can you imagine unironically playing something like MCH

last silo
#

I guess I'll be spamming the Burn for tomestones

quick verge
#

don't you play sch

zinc vortex
#

even though that class has awesome visuals and was literally the best class in Heavensward literally 0 contest dont even think about @ing me

#

thats why i said on the side

quick verge
#

@zinc vortex hey the best class is uh

#

war

lyric summit
#

hope the fix mch in 5.0 tbh

zinc vortex
#

uh

#

yeah same

last silo
#

Mch has the best goggles

quick verge
#

yeah i'd like to play mch without having a stroke

zinc vortex
#

would be nice

#

besides i stopped raiding for now anyway, work is absolutely killing me irl :)

#

gonna ride the carry train when i get back into it around february

lyric summit
#

the only thing i don't like about mch is probably flamethrower tbh

#

like, it'd be more playable if you could just overheat with an ogcd

quick verge
#

flamethrower is an ogcd :^))))))

zinc vortex
#

i mean i guess yeah

#

but then you run into the issue where for like the first

#

2s of your overheat you cant use GCDs

#

its gonna feel bad either way :(

lyric summit
#

make flamethrower just a shitty aoe cooldown that applies a dot or something for trash pulls in dungeons or adds in savage

quick verge
#

the thing i don't get about mch is uh

#

every wildfire after the 1st

lyric summit
#

same, with 3ammo

zinc vortex
#

you mean how you approach it?

lyric summit
#

2ammo is eazy

zinc vortex
#

2 ammo is easy yeah :)

#

all i know tbh

quick verge
#

i just make shit up as i go along tbh

zinc vortex
#

really cba to learn anything 3 ammo related when MCH's current state makes me just

#

want to forget it exists

#

2 ammo is just 3 different WF rotations based on which procs you have going into your Reload

quick verge
#

3

#

yeah that's too big brain

lyric summit
#

idk how to set up if i have a clean shot proc tbh

quick verge
#

which one is clean shot

lyric summit
#

is it 3 2 1

#

oribably 321 i'm just bad

#

bad at typing

quick verge
#

prob just use cooldown or split shot idk

zinc vortex
#

Clean shot is

#

a bunch of cooldowns

#

literally

#

clean shot proc -> reload -> clean shot, split shot, slug shot -> cooldown flamethrower -> cooldowns + off-GCDs

#

on mobile so cba to properly type it out

#

it feels really weird though

quick verge
#

can you type in england

zinc vortex
#

but its better average potency per GCD than fishing for procs in wildfire iirc

#

sorry for poor england i havent communicated with people since patch 4.1

quick verge
#

ah

#

too much ucob i c

#

only communicating with gremlins

quick verge
#

pug it

lyric summit
#

tru

#

it'll probably be easier than weekly 12s with my current group that does uptime unreal hw2

#

i wipe them every time cause it's too galaxy brain for me

quick verge
#

does the uptime unreal hw actually have more uptime

lyric summit
#

cleared this week only because i got killed by a healer accidentally and i didn't have to do a tower

#

i'm a caster i have 100% uptime

quick verge
#

ya but for

#

not ranged

lyric summit
#

probably

#

both stacks are in melee, blue marker and no marker get defamation while in melee

#

blue and no debuff get rot while in melee too and it resolves around their defamation so they can just hang around melee later while it's being passed to tower people

trail isle
#

If I have Largesse, and I Regen - is the whole duration of Regen increased? Or when Largesse falls off the Regen loses the potency increase?

coarse radish
#

it just needs to be on when cast

glossy musk
#

It's a snapshot system

#

So it calculates it at time of cast

high ether
#

lol 2k dps SAM in expert

#

โ™ฟ

vital cypress
#

don't doxx me please

boreal edge
#

@trail isle largesse doesnt increase regen duration it increase its potency

#

also its snapshot system

#

lagesse last 15 secs

#

you can regen as u put largesse

#

and before regen runs out

#

and you have buffed regen potency for 35 secs

lyric summit
#

"is the whole duration of regen increased" I'm pretty sure they meant "is it increased across the whole duration" but ye

trail isle
#

What Visanta said

flat roost
#

do I have to meld vit as a DPS

#

๐Ÿ˜”

lyric summit
#

if you're progging savage then yes, definitely helps

#

if you're not then no

quaint flower
#

it is less important than it was, now most of people have 390/400 and a lot of mechanics this tier is instant kill

#

however

lyric summit
#

not really, final omega has a lot of things that make you live by a tiny bit of hp, archive all impact, patch, hello world, ion efflux

quaint flower
#

pugs o12s

#

definitely vit

#

these pug healers

thorn bear
#

do it unless you are in full 390/400 gear

quaint flower
#

^ that was my point

#

vit is important on launch prog when you are 370 or 380

#

later it helps too but less

thorn bear
#

don't be my mch and go into o12s prog

stable basin
#

Even at bis I still see people drop during program omega

thorn bear
#

with 370 chest piece

#

and one vit meld

stable basin
#

oof

#

My start of tier static had a guy who missed the first week of patch

#

I forgot to reprisal one of the element aoes on o9s and he got oneshot

quaint flower
#

i see people drop on everything

#

on weekly farms

blazing pelican
#

I pug with RDM sometimes and there's a lot of "oh fuck my party is stupid and Addle is on CD people are gonna die"

lyric summit
#

how do you use addle on rdm before it's needed ponder

#

like, smn for wws sure

valid gate
#

because theres a lot of shit

#

you can addle

#

it's never "needed" so i have no idea what you're trying to get across there

full wave
#

Addle is needed in Ultimate and early prog

lyric summit
#

there's always a thing you should save it for in savage or even ex trials

quick verge
#

just replace caster with mch

#

free addle every 60 seconds

lyric summit
#

tsuku stack, byakko aoe spam before bubbles, suzaku aoe->stack

#

so just because you can addle some weakass aoe, why would you

#

instead of using it on something that actually hurts and you know drooling healers won't react to fast enough

I save Feint for TBs and no one appreciates me.

quick verge

๐Ÿ”ซ

quick verge
#

it's a dps increase

#

just get fey wind and enhanced arrow

#

and rapid fire the fuck out of ruin 2/4

#

shoot me you won't

vital cypress
#

quick question for the people who know what they're talking about

#

which is to say not me

#

is the Fey Wind opener worth doing, or does it screw up rotations enough that it's not worth it

dull radish
#

it's super worth doing

#

there is no "screwing up rotations"

vital cypress
#

Our MCH grumbles about that and Arrow constantly

#

(and the DRG though I'm not sure why they'd care so much)

dull radish
#

minor alignment, but you can adjust for it

#

and it's a strict dps gain

#

if they have an issue with it

#

they can click off the buff

#

and admit that they can't deal with it

lyric summit
#

for some jobs there's specific openers if there's fey wind, like nin I think

dull radish
#

but it's still strictly a gain

lyric summit
#

and for some jobs like mch sks is actual dps loss i heard

dull radish
#

if for the very least, extra autos

#

no

#

it sucks and feels clunky

quaint flower
#

it can be a pain for some jobs

dull radish
#

and it's especially rough during rapid fire

quaint flower
#

ew DRK during blood weapon

dull radish
#

but it's still a gain

vital cypress
#

i was enjoying not raiding then someone dragged me back into it

#

the monsters

dull radish
#

but yeah, basically like

#

yes fey wind opener

vital cypress
#

i mean it doesn't cost anything besides the MCH getting annoyed

dull radish
#

if someone has an issue where they don't want it, they should click off the buff (or macro to remove it)

#

no reason to take away a solid raid buff from the rest of the party because one person is annoyed by it

vital cypress
#

(also I think they have a cancel macro and just like to complain anyways, or the AST is using Arrow while I'm not looking or something)

#

another job well done

lyric summit

exaflare hardest mechanic

did you clear 11s yet

vital cypress

until it was blind luck to clear O10S any week playdead

you know why I got grey

because I was in defiance

at the end

because I will die

if i'm not

#

the amount of times I died to autos in m/f is very scary

I spent a full inner release in defiance so that I could make it easier on the healers

normal sable
#

isn't drk tankier

#

in savage

#

all that magic damage

thorn bear

drk is tankier in the sense that it has on demand shielding

you, me, uh

that might be it

i have no idea where the catboy DRK went but they were annoying anyways

thorn bear

there is so much weird inoptimization going on

normal sable
#

i aspire to be that drk

thorn bear
#

like me and you being in the same group

normal sable
#

truly the goat

#

LMAO

#

yea

thorn bear
#

and me and the pld being in the same quadrant

#

for shield

normal sable
#

the m/f splits are bad

#

it's because we run drk pld

thorn bear
#

yeah at taht point you can't help someone missing slashing

normal sable
#

the only person who misses is pld anyway

thorn bear
#

but there is actually no reason for both tanks being in the same position for shield

normal sable
#

yea i think its easier for drk

#

because of plunge

thorn bear
#

I think it helps with consistency if things are the same often

#

like my group has us be on the same gender during initial split

#

and where you are first determines your position for eletric boogaloo

#

line strat is just monkaShoot

#

I don't even know how mtq made that shit up

#

cause it makes no sense to me still

normal sable
#

I actually really like it

thorn bear
#

box is not only super comfy, but you can walk back to your spot if you are odd number

#

after you get hit

#

and you don't have to worry about getting clipped by the eye

#

or the 3/4 dashes

#

and you don't have to memorize two orders for the numbers depending on odd or even

normal sable
#

i don't remember orders

#

i just do even/odd

#

and then lining up is lowest number near eye, highest number furthest

dull radish
#

the crit multiplier is tied to your stat, "critical hit", which also affects the rate at which you crit

#

notable since there are buffs that affect your crit rate, but don't actually raise your critical hit stat, and thus don't affect the crit multiplier

#

yeah, that only affects your crit rate, doesn't affect the crit stat, so your multiplier is static with litany

Pagos is getting nerfed even more in 4.5

#

Which was honestly the worst Eureka step by far

novel fog
#

I jist want to be able to do it solo dogeKek

last galleon
#

For leveling solo, you can do challenge logs

#

Gives you good 2-3 levels

#

And even light farming you can do solo

#

NMs I did solo as well. If youโ€™re at the right level you can get gold even without a party

#

Downside is if you die you might have to wait till end of NM for people to raise you

#

Pagos leveling was probably the worst but pyros NMs give such a generous amount of exp I didnโ€™t even think about the leveling process there

#

I did NMs until I had enough crystals then I used that method to gain my last 8 bars

#

But likely 4.5 will nerf pagos light requirements

quick verge

they need to buff the amount of crystals acquiesced

in 390 tome gear like all casuals

#

if you know your rotation you're already doing more dps than them

#

pentamelds won't help

boreal edge
#

idk if for example clearing suzaku nm faster matters much

#

its not hard enough

#

to even bother

normal sable
#

Melds add very little

#

Something like less than 3%

novel fog
lyric summit
#

literally no reason to gear up other than getting minimal required ilvl for content

boreal edge
#

while clearing savage faster can mean skipping mechanics

#

or skip tough parts to heal/tank

#

thats not the case even in extremes

#

thordan and shinryu EX were special cases

#

since those were closest to raid difficulty

wet stag
#

3rd head on pepehands

boreal edge
#

since we are in xmas for around 2 resets

#

a static asked me to fill for them as sam

stable basin
#

I've been in parties that locked sam

#

because drk/pld and we didn't want to sacrifice someone's door parse

lyric summit
#

but sam has slashing yoshiglasses

stable basin
#

We locked a slot to sam

honest yew
#

i just want big deep because I want things

#

mounts, loot, epeen

daring berry
#

Wait, there are people trying to show off dps on non-savage EASY dungeons?

boreal edge
#

i know plenty

#

i can do big dick dps

but i dont wanna do the content where that big dick dps matters

quick verge

locking nin/sam is common for door

but who cares tbh

#

it's like

#

Monday

lyric summit
#

need slashing for prog ๐Ÿ˜”

quick verge
#

you do yeah

#

it's throwing away like 400+ dps

lyric summit
#

don't need dps to do mechanics

quick verge
#

tank lb strat for shield

#

do shield normally until you spread for fire

#

stack and tank lb3

valid gate
#

that actually physically hurt me to think about

quick verge
#

good

flat roost
#

me and my friends are thinking of forcing a group to try out some sausage difficulty at some point.

#

We have BLM, RDM and SMN as our DPS. How does this make you feelies?

#
  • someone who hasnt decided.
lyric summit
#

would be very shit for drops + big responsibility on the summoner to know how to use garuda egi properly

#

healers might have MP issues as well without a ranged

#

and without a STR based melee tanks will deal less damage, even less less if you end up with pld/drk and no sam/nin to provide slashing debuff

barren tapir
#

how to up level on pagos?

quick verge
#

kill shit

flat roost
#

Hmm.

#

I feel like me wanting to be a RDM was a mistake.

#

but too late now since I've spent some time gearing it. ๐Ÿ˜”

quick verge
#

they're fine classes

#

but 3 caster is xd

lyric summit
#

should be fine as long as people know how to play their jobs and don't mind fighting for drops

#

make everyone do stone sky sea for o9s and put their parses through xivanalysis

#

cause inb4 it turns out you have an ice mage, a bahamut with 3 wyrmwaves and you don't know how to use swiftcast on redmage

#

then uhh you won't clear probably

quick verge
#

swiftcast

#

you mean

#

free p r o c ?

lyric summit
#

idk i don't play rdm

#

but it's in the rdm ogcds on xiva and people don't use it cause they're bad

quick verge
#

i think the priority for swiftcast is like

#

movement for mechanics > fishing for procs if you have none

lyric summit
#

optimizing rdm ๐Ÿ˜ด

quick verge
#

preferably you'll have it on cd most times

#

but rng class btw xd

zinc vortex
#

using swiftcast for movement on a class that only has to stand still for 1 second every 5 seconds

lyric summit
#

more like for 2.2s every 5s

#

plus you skip a weak jolt/stone/fire for thicc thunder/aero so ye swiftcast good

quick verge
#

shockingly

#

some mechanics require more than just dualcast

vital cypress

I forgot what actual progress feels like

quick verge

feels good right

vital cypress

What is the most needed class

#

Or job

quick verge
#

a lot of them

quaint flower
#

role wise PLD/SCH/BRD

#

PLD for decent cd and defense utility, SCH for shields, BRD for mp/range mechanic slave

lyric summit
#

player-amount wise then any tank any healer or a good ninja

quick verge
#

any healer that isn't whm

vital cypress
#

I'm not sure if it's rust or lack of familiarity with my other healer, but my DPS is crap now

#

35-40 percent

quick verge
#

show log

lyric summit
#

it's like week 20 everyone's i400 too

quick verge
#

ok im not a pro healer

#

but what stands out

#

you have a lot of ruin 2's

lyric summit
#

unacceptable memery

#

the ast has 52% uptime

quick verge
lyric summit
#

i just tried to post a screenshot of their xiva and discord blocked it as explicit

quick verge
#

stop posting porn vis

#

gosh

lyric summit
#

does the ast have a disability that doesn't let them press buttons

#

so basically tl;dr the ast is shit and you're solohealing so don't expect a good parse

vital cypress
#

do they get a pass for having the flu

quick verge
#

no

#

are they actively dying because of it

vital cypress
#

aren't we all dying all the time thinkernetExplorer

#

but yes

quick verge
#

no like irl

#

are they actively dying because of the flu

#

rendering them unable to press buttons

vital cypress
#

but yeah Ruin II is bad and I'm paranoid about Miasma II MP burn

quick verge
#

you got 2 ranged

lyric summit
#

also you had 3 minutes of aetherflow drift

#

that's like. 4 aetherflows

quick verge
#

burn your aetherflow on energy drain if you aren't going to use them in the 45 second window you have

vital cypress
lyric summit
#

also you didn't use fey covenant or illumination which are both strong af

#

oh wait i'm looking at healing idk eos fflogs

vital cypress
#

(I've been plugging Chaos so I'm not super-dead)

#

er, pugging

quick verge
#

can also use fey union more

lyric summit
#

yeah it's so much free healing

vital cypress
#

illumination I need to use more often though

#

that I'm 100% guilty on

lyric summit
#

you got like 360 fairy gauge and only used like 100-130

vital cypress
#

hey, maybe we would have had more than 2 people alive at the end with that

quick verge
#

also you don't need to heal the first akh morn

#

you have like

#

13 forms of mitigation there

vital cypress
#

(assuming that's my most recent midgardsormr clear, phoneposting is hard)

quick verge
#

you can also use rouse more

#

since tanks get yoten by autos a lot

#
  • earth shakers / thunderstorms
lyric summit
#

2 rouses in 10 minutes oof

#

it doesn't buff anything just use it on cooldown

#

only embraces

quick verge
#

you also have a lot of succors

#

you can just have your ast aspected helios to top you off for the next set of mechanics

#

or whispering dawn

vital cypress
#

Rouse is basically a "hey, neutralize autoattacks for a while" button now?

quick verge
#

!action rouse

storm frostBOT
#
**Rouse** : lvl 42 ACN SMN SCH (60.0 second cooldown)

Increases healing magic potency and damage dealt by pet by 40%. While roused, pet will be immune to Stun, Sleep, Bind, and Heavy.
Duration: 20s

quick verge
#

fat embraces

#

which also help top off between mechanics

vital cypress
#

I'm surprised there's so much AF drift unless I got caught with stacks at the phase changes

#

because O10S playdead

quick verge
#

also i don't see any excogs

#

unless im 2 iq

vital cypress
#

there should be a couple, unless I'm blind

#

(granted there should be more than that)

quick verge
#

should also tell your party to not be dumb

#

as you have a lot of lustrates

craggy gate
#

there aren't (not trying to butt in)

#

not in the link you posted anyway

quick verge
#

excog is also more potent than lustrate and is better at instant healing

#

or you can have your ast do something

vital cypress
#

that's really weird, there's at least three spots I throw it on automatically

#

unless I was having a really bad off night

#

which is entirely possible

craggy gate
#

well let me see one other place but it should show under healing

vital cypress
#

yeah, it should

craggy gate
#

nawp you forgot it paissaowo

#

the astro literally did nothing though

#

stood there a lot

#

enough for you to lustrate that many times because you felt it was necessary

quick verge
#

basically the first thing you can start with

#

replace ruin 2's with broil

#

and have your ast use their tools more

#

1 time dilation

#

1 CO

#

1 CU

#

2 lightspeeds

vital cypress
#

and replace lustrate with excog on big tank busters?

quick verge
#

yeah

craggy gate
#

save lustrate as a last resort heal if you need something in a pinch

quick verge
quaint flower
#

tail end ablobsweats

quick verge
#

either

vital cypress
#

it's easy to sit on it as a panic button but yeah

quick verge
#

your tank didn't use the right cds

#

or excog could've prevented them from getting clapped

craggy gate
#

I had to look at it in a way that if I use it, it's being used wrong

#

if not for absolute emergencies

#

if you have to plan lustrates or use them on tbs (barring shit just getting real) something can change

vital cypress
#

(I'm used to working with much worse healing than that)

quaint flower
#

95k is quite much though

#

380 ilvl?

craggy gate
#

it is

quaint flower
#

Im getting 75k with bis

vital cypress
#

also

#

Fey Union

#

I'm really not sure when to use that in O10S outside of the add phase

#

because it seems like it's busters and AOEs

craggy gate
#

I use it between tbs in first phase, add phase, and during hot tail on the mt

#

after he takes a few hits

quick verge
#

also talk to your party about their use of their mitigation tools

#

2 ranged 2 melee

vital cypress
#

O11 has parts where he just smacks the tank for a while, especially early on, which are obvious use cases

quick verge
#

you can feint + palisade tank busters

#

and your brd has 1 cast of troubadour

#

you can bump it to a minimum of 2-3

craggy gate
#

you can do it on a tank that the excog proc'd for the tankbuster as a persisting regen afterward

#

I'm bad about fey too, in 10

quick verge
#

so overall

#

more broil
have your other healer use their healing tools more
use your fairy skills more
have your party discuss when they'll use certain mitigation

unreal flax
#

Yeah, throw away the "main healer" meme.

quick verge
#

and utilize excog more yeah

#

just the first part, more broil would get you to blue

#

again there's probably more qualified people who respect content more who could give better tips

zinc vortex
#

hello i respect content tell your ast to start existing

#

thanks nd bless u

#

have a nice chrimbus

quick verge
#

wow there you have it

livid siren
#

are there any "straight forward" fights that are good to analyse? In wow we'd call them a patchwerk fight, which was almost like just hitting a dummy

lyric summit
#

chaos and final omega are pretty dummy

#

what are you looking to analyze

livid siren
#

well, i wanted to test my single target dps vs logs, so that i can see what they're doing differently

#

and practice on a dummy

lyric summit
#

you won't reach actual encounter dps on a dummy, being in a party already gives you more mainstat due to party bonuses, plus there's raid buffs present throughout the fight and more importantly in your opener

livid siren
#

that's true, but i'll be able to see what abilities they use and in what order, and % damage breakdown of each ability

#

i understand it won't be quite right

lyric summit
#

depending on the job you can always just do the 3minute stone sky sea and put the log through xivanalysis to see if you're doing things wrong rotation-wise

#

except some jobs have looping rotations that barely end the first loop at 3 minutes

livid siren
#

ok cool, i'll have a look into that then. Thanks!

vernal swallow

they need a job so you can send them on explorations. they can sometimes come back with rare/expensive stuff

dull radish

the difference between unreal and fennek is how much healers have to move

not just movement, but positioning

sending them out to narnia as far away as possible from the people taking the most damage throughout HW

high ether

wtf is fennek

grizzled seal
#

german tank :^)

dull radish
#

early on in alphascape a guy named fennek f'ox made rough guides for each savage fight, and he has a specific strat for Hello World in O12S, final omega

normal sable
#

Fennek is a harder strat with no benefits over traditional unreal

#

modified unreal is a harder strat with actual benefits for tank/melee

quaint flower
#

Fennek was first more or less decent and complete guide to the fight so most of people will stick to it until the end of world. Most of people are afraid of changing the strats, they just want to kill and be done with it

dull radish
#

yep

#

meanwhile my group never took the time to swap from doing 134

My group does unreal, except the synchro defamation positions are different.

glossy musk
#

Why do people not do line strat

#

on o9s

dull radish
#

I'd be happy if people just consistently always did dps out in pugs

glossy musk
#

like you don't have to even move at all

dull radish
#

let alone actually doing line strat

glossy musk
#

it pushes everyone into the proper position

#

automatically

quaint flower
#

I don't even know that strat because I am only pugging, no bulli

#

most of times it is dps in, sometimes by some miracle it is dps out

#

never line strat though

quick verge
#

line strat is ascended

dull radish
#

line strat is melee hit each other with arm's length up, ranged an caster hit each other, caster knocks tanks/healers to other side of orb by the two melee

#

since blaze is enough to cleanse the earth debuff for dps it's pretty dang convenient and you don't need to use the water donut at all

glossy musk
#

Notice how nobody moves at all for everything

#

it just goes off and resolves itself

steep iris
#

cause people who don't understand the strat fully will fuck it up

#

even if it's impossible to fuck up

#

people find a way

#

also it's much easier to put markers for the usual strat

glossy musk
#

Yeah but "usual strat" to pugs is dps in which is trash

steep iris
#

usual strat as in dps out/dps in

glossy musk
#

PUGs are scared of that

quaint flower
#

good strat but pugs does not have ability called ''adjustment''

dps in name itself is also misleading as it implies it is uptime strat

quick verge
#

i really don't like fof opener in final

#

i thought i could pop off

quaint flower
#

Im not using fof opener in final because if you get blue tether your spirit rotation is fuked

#

Just like with UwU. Goring > Requiescat > FoF

#

Also using Requiescat as a opener lines nicely with HW if you get red debuff

#

but I am just casual feel

quick verge
#

uhhhh

#

you can largely ignore the blue tether

#

just with slidecasting

#

and being on the other side of the diffuse

#

the real issue is that

#

if you start FoF

#

your requiescat will align with the monitors

#

so you're very close to getting oneshot

#

even with reprisal

quaint flower
#

what

#

sheltron is enough for monitors

quick verge
#

yeah and you can't block if you're in the middle of a req cast

quaint flower
#

What

quick verge
#

HS*

quaint flower
#

SO THIS IS WHY IT SOMETIMES DOESNT WORK

#

I NEVER KNEW TTHIS

quick verge
#

yeah

quaint flower
#

I was always wondering why sometimes Sheltron is ignored

quick verge
#

you need to get like

#

latent in HW

#

if you want minimal drift in the rotation

#

which then allows you to maybe

#

end requiescat before monitors

#

so yeah requiescat opener is a lot better in most settings

quaint flower
#

how about using wings

#

between HS

#

they give 100% block rate

#

and in 4.4 they are instant

quick verge
#

it'd be no different than popping sheltron then

quaint flower
#

I mean the 15% buff for party lasts few seconds after you end them

quick verge
#

your HS casts would have to end up ending, or starting right as the cast bar ends

quaint flower
#

so maybe the same with block rate?

quick verge
#

n

#

it disappears like

#

instantly

#

unlike the defensive buff

#

which persists

quaint flower
#

just ask for apo

quick verge

so without any actual math to prove my claims

frik fof

๐Ÿ˜

quaint flower
#

I dunno FoF looks bad if you get red debuff

quick verge
#

yeah

quaint flower
#

you will spam shield lob

quick verge
#

HW in the end oofs either FoF or req

#

you either get rescued in the middle of the cast

#

or you lose like

#

a gcd

#

fof is better if you get latent which is random

#

because you can slidecast HS to your defam spot
