[dull radish]

rightmost column being estimated improvement with sharp fire over base unmelded full aug tome set

so yeah, a bit over 1% improvement, more with a good weapon roll

[inland ore]

Whether I get a blm relic or not depends on whether or not I can stomach pagos again.

It all feels so pointless though.

[quick verge]

you'll be the god of the level 75 leveling dungeon

then you toss your old gear

[dull radish]

powerful

[inland ore]

I actually haven't done a dungeon, period, in so long.

I spammed them a bit at the beginning of the tier for tomes.

Then I simply had no reason to do them.

[dull radish]

I usually run expert for capping tomes, and slowly level some more jobs sometimes

also been farming for the alliance set of caster gear

[inland ore]

I still have that goal of maxing my rdm.

But! I've actually made some progress.

It's not level 50 anymore.

It's level 51.

[quick verge]

amazing

you may finish leveling rdm by 2050

1 level every 2 years

[inland ore]

Nah I just gotta wait until 5.0 when they make rdm OP.

Then I'll 80 it in 2 days.

[dull radish]

RDM is a bit fun sometimes

[quick verge]

there's gonna be 4 mana gauges

and now they can cross class triplecast and contagion

[inland ore]

I do kind of hope they take raise away from smn though.

I don't want the responsibility.

[quick verge]

simply

don't raise

free country

or play Melee and discover a new type of hell

[inland ore]

I actually feel so bad though, because when someone dies my healers are instantly like "I got it".

I want them to chill out a bit and let me lose 120p to raise over their 220p or whatever.

Bye Eureka. (for now)

[errant kayak]

Eyy

[boreal edge]

dat relic is sure broken

[torn kindle]

what stats you got on it?

[thin vessel]

is that red mage fucking gray

[boreal edge]

@torn kindle 835 DH

[torn kindle]

F

Imagine if that was all Crit

[boreal edge]

see DH rate

[torn kindle]

👀

[heavy mist]

👀

[boreal edge]

i did outdps my static brd in mustadio

he have 3000+ crit

brd relic

by about 100

he was outdpsing me by 500 in TG

because the add phase is actually all about

how can you milk PPs

so his crit was pretty good for him there

then he dced at last 30%

is why he dropped to 5k

[glass trellis]

Is there any reason to do FATES in pyros once I get the 385 weapon?

To my understanding it's all light farm after that

[quick verge]

pyros crystals if you want the elemental armor

some give

decent amount of light

some drop expensive items

skoll claw, ying yang tissue

lamebrix dice

[glass trellis]

Do I need to power it up by light? Or can I move straight to Hydatos?

[quick verge]

you can move to hydatos if you want

[glass trellis]

So is there any point to light farm in Pyros?

[quick verge]

to give your weapon stats...

[lusty oak]

getting stats on relic

[glass trellis]

But do I need those stats if I make a Hydatos weapon?

[lusty oak]

you can return later

after finishing i405

[glass trellis]

Ohh

I see

[rapid sapphire]

a little light farm in pyros helps to get it started but I wouldn't spend more than a lockout there if don't have lv 60 yet (since getting 350 crystals in Hydatos takes a good bit of time)

[elder dawn]

[quick verge]

got an entire week before i start trapping ucob 😔

what do i do until then

[steady pebble]

eureka

[quick verge]

oh that's a pretty decent idea

full RGB armor so everyone can see me for mechanics

[steady pebble]

ye boi

[vital cypress]

real quick question

do you get an LB3 bonus if a hit is only survived because of shields, or am I remembering wrong

[dull radish]

yeah, if you take lethal damage but survive because of shielding, you get bonus LB generated per person that lives that "lethal" damage

well I guess to be more encompassing, it's more buff-based mitigation that works, debuff-based mitigation that lowers the damage to become non-lethal makes it not generate the extra LB

[wet stag]

@quick verge have u gotten ur tenacity bis

[meager oriole]

If a tank loses aggro then whose fault is it? Is it the tank or the dps or both?

[dull radish]

it's going to depend a bit on the situation haha

like, if the dps is using their tools for limiting/cutting aggro, and they still grab it, it's likely on the tank then. If they don't, then it's probably mostly on them. But it could be both, too

[stable basin]

If you shield a WAR/DRK who invulns a hit and survives with 1 hp does that generate the LB for "saving" them?

[simple sky]

woah expecting dps to use diversion

what world is this

[wet stag]

@stable basin no

[stable basin]

qq

[vital cypress]

also uh

how's the outlook on crystal having any raiders at all

Bad?

[thin vessel]

might as well erp

endgame is shakespeareian levles of erp

what lies beyondth thine pantaloons

[high ether]

it'll have raiders for sure

question is how good they'll be

not that your average Gilgamesh player is all that good

[quick verge]

@wet stag nope

[stable basin]

I know the raiders are getting out of malboro like rats on a sinking ship

[quick verge]

gotta get everyone to go to Exodus

[stable basin]

Is there something like "The Balance" but for Crafting/Gathering?

[heavy mist]

the balance has a crafting gathering channel

its pretty substantial from what i remember

@stable basin

[stable basin]

oh would you look at that 👀

I'm dumb af thanks @heavy mist

[heavy mist]

np

[glass trellis]

Hydatos rate of which FATE spawn seem pretty low

[lapis lodge]

so this is the power of endgame

sitting for 3 hours in pf with nobody joining

[steady pebble]

this is the power of end-game at the end of a patch cycle

[lapis lodge]

I just want to clear

[steady pebble]

a lot of the people who would be interested in doing savage/extreme are either unsubbed and waiting for expac

or doing other things

[lapis lodge]

fug

[sturdy shell]

you might get more luck once the restrictions lift in a month or so

[quick verge]

not really

duty complete farm parties are going to be popping for a while

esp the o12s ones for mounts

then after everyone farms bis for leveling dungeons in 5.0

they're gonna go back to eureka/ultimate/erping in limsa

[wicked iron]

Generally if it gives mounts. People will run it

[lapis lodge]

I hate the pug experience

wait for an hour for people
someone leaves after 2 wipes
everyone else follows suit

wait another hour

[lapis lodge]

fuck raiding

[daring berry]

if it's not practice, it's 3 wipes and disband

not sure how other DCs do it because that's how the JP DCs do it.

[lapis lodge]

it was set to practice

but we were wiping on the mechanic that wasn't practiced

didn't even get there

[rapid sapphire]

I suspect the Hydatos scaling is just awful (it's good with a fresh instance but as more players join in an instance the more likely it is have to do 120 kills to pop anything at all. same goes with hp scaling for extra fake difficulty)

[glossy musk]

HP scaling is needed or we get what happens with hunts

where it melts in literally 1 gcd

They're hilarious when like nobody is around though

dragonfire dived into the bunny fate once when it was literally just me

almost killed them all

[rapid sapphire]

I found it more annoying with bunny fate bullet sponge trash

I think it also acts on BA once ovni is killed/snapshotted so there's a large possibility of ba being impossible to clear on a full instance unless 48 are inside

[errant kayak]

For m/f, what’s needed for the 2nd tank lb3?

I remember there’s specifications for tank/healer mitigation

[quick verge]

have everyone stack for first arrow/meteor

tank lb3

should get ~2 lb bars

survive cosmo memory

3rd lb bar

repeat

[dull radish]

do not addle or reprisal

or dismantle for that matter

HP troubadour probably bad idea too

[quick verge]

yeah

the purpose is to mitigate fatal damage with tank lb3

and only tank lb3

[heavy mist]

zzz why am i doing 11s and 10s every week literally useless

[errant kayak]

Ah k

[dull radish]

well buff based mitigation and shielding is fine

[errant kayak]

No attack mitigation from the tanks essentially

[dull radish]

just no debuff-based mitigation or anything that raises HP and makes stuff non-lethal before the LB/shielding

[errant kayak]

Ah k

[stable basin]

[stark oyster]

Do I need to have experienced ucob to understand that video

I don't get it

[uncut charm]

I have no idea whats going on there monkaS

is that call out broken

[heavy mist]

So UCOB has a mechanic where Nael does a mechanic based on what they said text wise. So generally you have ACT call out the mechanic so u dont have to worry too much about what it is

the TTS is just spamming call outs so the raider cant hear ACT

[uncut charm]

why would the TTS do that

monkaS

[stark oyster]

That's dumb

[torn kindle]

Because someone trusted donations too much

[heavy mist]

^

Exactly

[uncut charm]

F

but honestly tho

who would have thought that Nael RP mechanic was good

[heavy mist]

its not too bad for like JP

cause as u know its character based so u can just point out the characters relatively quickly

[uncut charm]

as usual, thanks Koji Fox?

[heavy mist]

whoever

[lyric summit]

it's not that awful after you spend 3 months in there

i could tell the one during dives before my trigger

but that's the only one

[steady pebble]

can you really blame koji for that

when he's not the one who designed the fight

[heavy mist]

whoever did english translation

[steady pebble]

Except he's not the one who decided to do rp mechanics

[heavy mist]

its just how they translate it 🤷

and the nature of english

[wet stag]

in jp it's a lot easier to know which mechanics are coming up

[steady pebble]

complains about rp mechanic
must be EN translation's fault

[heavy mist]

i mean they could literally put

like words that make it easier to spot out

not saying its entirely on the english translation team

they worked with what they were given

[uncut charm]

above 2 person gets the point

[blazing pelican]

The English version of the quotes lack just enough consistency that you couldn't figure them out on the fly, so you'd either need to memorize them or just use ACT to call it out

The main problem with Nael's quotes is that they're all similar, and you have a an extremely short time to properly respond to them. You can memorize them, sure, but why

When you can just make a trigger

[quick verge]

11-12k

yeah

[opaque lantern]

You guys think I have a chance to get into the current endgame raids as new player? if so how should I go about it? I have played other mmos like ragnarok online, wow. So I have basic understanding of things. I want to take these months before shadowbringer comes out as learning experience and then start beeing more serious once the new content is out and I learned all the basic stuff.

[pastel cobalt]

Thanks guys!

[heavy mist]

@opaque lantern u can clear the current tier in time for SHB

just depends on your luck and patience

Recommend to get the highest ilevel gear you can get first of all

since the the first floor minimum ilevel is i380 2nd is i385 and 3rd/4th is i390

For DPS you want to learn your rotation and be comfortable enough so u can do mechanics at the same time

Tanks you wanna learn the rotation plus read a bit on the mitigation tools

Healers, just read the healers guide imo

More questions just ask here or the balance discord for class specific guides they can provide

auram vale is below 50 tho so no rescue?

[glossy musk]

absolute virtue

Also double edge is stupid hilarious

[torn kindle]

Yeah Blue DPS is not a meme at all in BA

Double Edge + Martialist = bonkers DPS

[glossy musk]

Yup

[torn kindle]

Tanks are the only classes that can actually pull off double edge due to the damage you take.

[glossy musk]

Wondering if you could do an all tank run with double edge and PLD healing. Probably could

[torn kindle]

sounds doable, but then you wouldn't have a sleep for the centaurs

[stable basin]

Just trade off invulning it ez

Or get everyone to bust out the fell cleaves lol

[heavy mist]

probably better to just have WAR and WHMs

since WAR + WHM normal DPS < WAR DE dps

[glass trellis]

Do you need any weather/time to spwan zuzu in hydatos?

I've had many blue DPS who do DE+Martialists

Once they hit 10+ stacks I generally spam cure 1/2 on them

They're doing a ton more damage than what I would be doing so I don't mind too much.

[glass trellis]

How do I add another secondary stat to eureka weapon?

instead of replaceing first stat?

[lyric summit]

you can't, just keep rolling and accept every roll until you get 5 lines

all rolls are random, you can't pick and choose secondaries from previous rolls

[glass trellis]

And I have to do it on both Sword and Shield

oof

[lyric summit]

at least it's just one crystal per hand, other jobs need 2

and if you get a good shield roll you can just keep that and get better sword rolls and vice versa

the 4 stages of tanking - stage 1 you are doing the boss for the first time and you die cauze of excitment. stage 2 - you try to focus but you still die. stage 3 - you almoust kill the boss. and finally stage 4 you manage to kill the boss

if i ask in #questions-and-help its for newbie

[lyric summit]

you get more from quests in anemos

so at 3 5 13 and 17? i think?

[pastel iron]

hmm i dont have quest anymore, level 3 elemental

[lyric summit]

you need to find shinies in the zone

3 is near the sabotender fate

[pastel iron]

sabotender fate?

shinies?

[lyric summit]

on the map, it's the confluence

the number in the circle is the quest level

[glossy musk]

It's best to not travel at night if you're trying to do something solo. Undead spawn, and they aggro to touch or blood (loss of HP)

They despawn during the day

Also be aware that elemental sprites will aggro to any spells cast

and some enemies aggro to sight, but some aggro to sound, so running past won't work; you need to walk

hello, i started playing the game recently and had a blast playing samurai so far
i'm only interested into pve hl/vhl and the more i read about ff14 pve the more i feel like i won't have any slot as SAM
so i come here to ask you guys, how hard it is for a sam to find a group to do pve high-end content?

i'm not really willing to play blm, nin or drag =(

thx

[lyric summit]

just apply for casual statics until you master the job, casual statics don't care about the job (or at least they shouldn't, if they do it's pretty safe to assume they want to rely on party comp instead of player skill) and more hardcore statics value player skill above party comp and meta jobs

[echo blaze]

thanks you for your fast answer

[vital cypress]

as a filthy casual, SAM seems like a fairly common pick anyways

so i don't think you'd have too much trouble

[heavy mist]

Sam feels so good to play too :)

[vital cypress]

like it has a decent number of parses uploaded on fflogs, right behind SMN and RDM

[pastel cobalt]

My group started progging O11S the other day, and I had a question about Chains of Memory. If the two chain-takers start north/south so that the chain covers up the first inner tower, would they have enough time to sprint 90 degrees around the arena, to give the inner people room to take the first tower? Basically, we're thinking that this will take the burden off of the 6 inner people to decide which side to be on, because they can all go to either side, and the 2 chain-takers adjust to give them space.
Do people regularly do this, or is it just about seeing where the first tower will end up based on ferrofluid phase, then sending the chain takers East/West, and the 6 inner people to the side the tower will be on?

[heavy mist]

Pugs just do east and west and have the ,6 adjust to North or south

I believe east and west u have less movement overall too

Its not too hard to notice north and south for the 6 just needs some practice and you'll be good

[dull radish]

yeah you have a long time to determine north/south, and you only need one person confident with the callout and the rest to follow

[heavy mist]

@pastel cobalt

[dull radish]

you can technically do it so that the group always starts in a static spot, and sometimes the chain people will have to rotate the other direction once depending on pattern

[pastel cobalt]

I'll be that one person, gonna confidently kill everyone in the raid

[dull radish]

but that's really awkward and I've found it prone to more issues

than just having people go N or S and having a set direction

[heavy mist]

And honestly it's early enough into the fight

[pastel cobalt]

From a movement perspective like Rider mentioned, I think the normal strategy would have less movement

[heavy mist]

Youll learn fast

[pastel cobalt]

So that makes sense

[prisma shard]

Here's a pic someone made that i snagged awhile back showing how to determine North or south

[lyric summit]

far tower on south = start south

[heavy mist]

Yeah that pic is good

[prisma shard]

I go based on the inner towers, works nice

[pastel cobalt]

That helps a lot, thanks guys!

[pastel iron]

a question, should i go ala mhigan equipment or lost allagan?

[dull radish]

mm well the lost allagan is higher ilvl but generally you'll be looking to pick up the gear from mendacity (ryumaku) for the first big ilvl jump at 70

[pastel iron]

well i wanna too but idk which dungeon drop.. i think i got genesis from eureka https://i.gyazo.com/8f4376d3d0ab360da17c3caa6e9c89bd.png

[dull radish]

all level 70 dungeons and trials will give mendacity and genesis, as well as running roulettes on a level 70 job

[cold ember]

Eureka ia the fastest way to cap genesis for me lol

[uncut charm]

AFK NM at Pyros for light, cap Genesis in a few hour

Is there no faster way of levelling up in Eureka Anemos then by doing the NM Train? I just spent the last hour or more fighting NM and only gained a single level.

but if want to self craft it's 1 lizard tail, 1 pagos sage, 1 pagos spring water, and 1 reishi mushroom (alc lv60)

[fringe granite]

If you're at least in Pyros it's easy to get the mats for

Pagos it's kind of a nightmare

[cold ember]

The mats are less than 50 gil here

[analog wind]

No, I'm not doing Challenge Logs. When asking in Shout inside Eureka, everyone kept telling me NM was the fastest way, and I should just join a train, but it felt like all I was doing was dying constantly, and still wasn't levelling very fast.

[torn kindle]

honestly for the first few levels challenge logs are very good

like, the 2nd tier of them will give you an entire level

I'd say try to find a fairy and make good use of the buff it gives you for damage, experience, and the regen

Try using this map to find possible fairy locations https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/423615699458457620/424438022759514112/unknown.png

NMs just start slowly being better once you're a high enough level because you don't get less EXP from being too low level.

[stable basin]

what is a good WAR weapon I can get if I am not doing Savage?

[quick verge]

relic weapon

[rustic lichen]

@stable basin relic, tomestone or Seiryu weapon

[stable basin]

x_x that's a lot to do XD I am barely in Pagos, but thank you for the responses

I'm on phone I can't see what he's doing

[thin vessel]

love this guy

not because its witty and informative, but because it shows that despite being regarded as the most selfish and a noob magnet of a job, it can parse higher than blms by a gap so high it removes multiple 0s until all dps parses referencing samurai will only show 200

[quick verge]

these videos look cursed

where do you even find them

[lyric summit]

r/shitpostxiv

the 2nd one at least

[blazing pelican]

that's possibly the most cursed thing I've tried to watch in ages

my ears bleed now

that guy is

something

[wet stag]

and this and this and that and this and this this that this

[quick verge]

seek Hydaelyn

[lyric summit]

his optimal trick rotation "that he came up with himself and is probably the intended combination" is (no slashing) 3mudra+suiton+trick+duality - aeolian edge - dream+suiton TCJ+kassatsu raiton(+he forgot mug)

one gcd trick btw

[wet stag]

hwa

what

lmao

[lyric summit]

https://youtu.be/xaVBgWpGiK8?t=1069

[quick verge]

it's taken years of research to develop the optimal nin opener which takes centuries of clipping

[wet stag]

holy shit

[thin vessel]

bruh

did you say second? wheres the first

[blazing pelican]

AAAAAAA

why.

I just threw up a little.

[coarse radish]

Don't use mug, stealing is bad

:(

[thin vessel]

People that are criminals

IM gonna say the M word

MUGGERS

[lusty turret]

i like that he is putting effort but what he came up with and spreading is just wrong

[finite bough]

I broke 60k

[zinc vortex]

I broke my will to live.

The ultimate endgame.

[thin vessel]

hardest nuke in game

POOR

[cosmic bramble]

Now you fail the 90% chance for progress three times in a row.

😉

[finite bough]

nah. piece by piece (with steady hand still active) into Observe + Focused Synthesis combo x 3 gets me to finish

so that's 100%

[pastel iron]

so if my ilevel equipment is around 358-360...should i do those omega quest?

[pastel cobalt]

Yeah, if you meet the minimum ilvl, you're good to go. The final section has a requirement of 355 for normal mode, so you'll be fine

[glossy musk]

Normal mode raids are easypeasy so no worries

[gaunt python]

Until you see 6 wipes on o11n in a trial roulette and you just abandon cuz you gave up on ppl

[cold ember]

I think more wipes are on 10n lol

[gaunt python]

I've only seen one wipe on o10n so far, which was on the add phase. It was dumb

[simple sky]

O11N is hard cuz people cant read

[gaunt python]

I dont even know what I do in there

I just move

[analog wind]

So I've finally reached Pagos. What's the fastest way to level up here? My Eureka Challenge Log is already completed, so I can't rely on that right now.

[cold ember]

Mobs and nms but u cant do nms till at least lv24 ish

Beware of sleeping dragons

[analog wind]

Why not before 24?

[cold ember]

Uh the lv20 nm is in lv25 territory

The fate u will always see on the map are bunny fates for treasure, doesnt give much exp

[analog wind]

Ah. I'm being taxi'd, so I guess it's not too bad to do NM's.

[heavy mist]

just be lv 21

get the first aetheryte

And you have access to lv 20 21 22 23 24 25 nm

[cold ember]

Oh i did mine solo

[heavy mist]

lv 23 for the top left

[cold ember]

Not rly fun experience

[heavy mist]

lv 25 for top right

and you'll be good

[analog wind]

Also. I've heard that I'm gonna need Light once i hit 35. How bad is the grind for it?

[heavy mist]

u can get light at 25

assuming u doing the quests

Youll be in pagos for some time, lets say

[cold ember]

The kettle caps at 9

Prob more than 10 if u started at 25

[analog wind]

Oof. I think I'm just gonna go back to Anemos and level to 25, then go from there.

[torn kindle]

I wouldn't recommend that. The Pagos NMs give vastly more experience than any NM in Anemos will.

Unless you're just talking about the Challenge Log.

Even at level 20 or 21 you could just camp the south half of the map and do the 6 NMs that can spawn there.

[cold ember]

Killing a mob inthere gives 10k exp

[torn kindle]

Yeah. Once you unlock the next eureka zone you should go there ASAP unless you still need to finish your weapon.

only exception being Pagos where you wait until 20 because they ended the Anemos story at 17 for whatever reason

[cold ember]

Yeah its strange i guess they dont want ppl to be frustrated running around without mounts till 20

[torn kindle]

but then they did that for Pagos/Pyros/Hydatos.

[cold ember]

Pagos and pyros are 15 level ups

Compared to 20 for the first one

Tbf

[analog wind]

Then this isn't working out well. Normal mobs take forever to kill and give a tiny sliver to my experience. NMs are faster, but I can't find someone to safely taxi me around because of Pagos map design, and I can't get around on foot fast enough to keep upbecause of the map design as well. I don't have my Challenge Logs, so my literal best bet is Anemos. @torn kindle

[torn kindle]

F

[cold ember]

It will all get better in hydatos unfortunately

[analog wind]

I just have to get through Pagos and Pyros first. T-T

[cold ember]

Yeah being in a new area with no logs suck

I did that for pyros D:

[analog wind]

I'm just gonna go back to Anemos for now and do my best to level up. When next Tuesday rolls around and my Challenge Logs reset, I'll hop back into Pagos at whatever level I'm at and go from there.

[cold ember]

What lv are u?

[analog wind]

21 currently.

[cold ember]

Attuned to the first aetheryte?

[analog wind]

Yeah.

That was where my last group dropped me because they were tired with the long taxi rides I required to help out.

[cold ember]

Thats good the 21 and 20 nms are just a few metres from it

[analog wind]

Yeah, but it won't be very fast doing it that way. I'd have to go to the NM, then hope I can find a group just for those NMs.

[cold ember]

Oh yeah pagos is super ez with logs cos sprites of almost every level and ashkin spawns there

[analog wind]

Well, I can also just find a group doing Challenge Logs and go from there. If I gain levels like I did in Anemos doing the logs, then I'll get to a high level pretty quickly.

[steep iris]

@quick verge does this make you die inside

[boreal edge]

tfw elitist legend is drifting requiscat

i thought legends can carry 7 ppl

[quick verge]

@steep iris natural drift

[steep iris]

Nah i held req for a couple of combos cause i forgot it's up

[heavy mist]

Same

Honestly surprised how much DPS a PLD/WAR/DRK can put out. Just randomly see the 5k+ dps 👀

[boreal edge]

@heavy mist

o11s

[heavy mist]

yes i know

i just dont play tank enough

[boreal edge]

describe i dont play tank enough

[heavy mist]

🤔 meaning i dont play enough tank in Savage

i was just surprised that i could do similar ish DPS until the pugs start going crazy

[quick verge]

slashing.jpg

[quick verge]

so uh

you could've used requiescat on orb

and not have lost a usage

some other shit idk

let me turn on my computer

[analog wind]

So I'm curious. Does the Eureka weapon change appearance much from the one I got in Anemos?

[steady pebble]

yes

Anemos to Pagos is just glow addition/change pagos to pyros is model change then pyros to hydatos is second model change

[analog wind]

Cool. Just figured I'd check before I get too invested into Pagos. Not that I can do Pagos right now anyway. Too low level. No Challenge Log. I'm stuck. T-T

[steady pebble]

gamerescape has images of each step

[analog wind]

How hard will it be to get the final Hydatos weapon before Shadowbringer? I mostly want it for the Glamour.

[glossy musk]

Not hard

Pyros and Hydatos you can level to max in a few hours through reflect farming

The only time sink is NM spawns and some light grinding

[analog wind]

So my main hump in the road in Pagos then.

[glossy musk]

Yeah

[analog wind]

Fun.

Hopefully I can get lucky and find someone who can taxi me around between NMs. Anemos does seem too slow to level up properly after 20.

[glossy musk]

Yeah it’s not intended for 20+

[analog wind]

Unfortunately, without my Challenge Log, neither is Pagos. 😄

[boreal edge]

final is fkn down

fkn finally

[round ridge]

This is just a friendly reminder to everyone that line strat in o9s is the best strat, and also that dps in is aids.

[lyric summit]

ok

[glossy musk]

GJ

And yeah if someone says DPS in I just leave

There’s absolutely no reason to not use line strat or AT LEAST dps out

[simple sky]

never done dps in but seems dumb af

just asking for people to get killed

[glossy musk]

DPS in is just a huge waste of uptime

[lyric summit]

i just do whatever people want cause i'm ranged and don't care as long as it gets everyone through the mechanic

public campaigns against dps in were probably a better meme when the tier wasn't about to unlock in 2 weeks tho

[heavy mist]

DPS in early in the tier tho 😃

[pastel cobalt]

Thank you for the reminder, have a nice day

[glossy musk]

Thing is that there is literally no possible gain from DPS in

Not a single one

So there’s no reason to ever use it at any point in the tier

Ever.

[heavy mist]

there was

when people were idiots

👀

[glossy musk]

DPS out requires less movement and is less dangerous than in

So less DPS, more movement, more chance for error

[lyric summit]

it's the first strat that comes to mind in blind prog when you're trying to figure out a way to resolve all the debuffs, cause no one's thinking of uptime strats at that point

and then most groups just stick to their strats that work

even if they're dumb

[heavy mist]

yeh like im not arguing DPS out is worse

[lyric summit]

i subbed for like 3-4 groups that were doing chain of memory clockwise-clockwise-counterclockwise cause it's a blm uptime strat and they're used to it, despite being overly complicated when the blm is subbed out

[heavy mist]

just that people do what they can for clear and it just happens that dps in was also a viable solution

without thinking of optimization 🤔

[dull radish]

I've never heard of an uptime strat for BLM for level checker before

Because you get full uptime with regular strat haha

[lyric summit]

leaves one of the quadrants clear for both 2nd and 3rd stacks or something

i dunno

[inland ore]

My old static used that strat when we were first progging it.

I think they ended up changing it because it was too confusing for pugs.

[dull radish]

You can casually move your way along with zero loss haha, plus triple and sharp come up later so those are extra trivial

[inland ore]

Mhm. I think the people coming up with the strats were just having fun trying to think of how to make it as efficient as possible in terms of movement.

[dull radish]

Don't really see the point in the end though haha

It shouldn't really be costing anyone uptime any which way

Particularly BLM with when triple comes up there

[thorn bear]

Static original strats are always a pain to teach to pugs

doing o12s with a sub is really shit since we have a different HW strat

[rustic lichen]

Yeah, it's the curse when ya gotta sub

[quick verge]

bahamut hurts so much

[lusty turret]

[quick verge]

wtb> dark mind cross class

[gaunt python]

[quick verge]

my group wants me to hallowed the flatten after fellruin

but gigaflare + autos + flare breath

hurts

[lusty turret]

if you hallowed that i dont think it would be back up in time for golden would it

nvm just checked logs, it would be actually

[quick verge]

yeah

[lyric summit]

just get apoc

[lusty turret]

apoc the flatten

[quick verge]

apoc there wouldn't be worth

and it wouldn't even be up

since i get apoc when covering the triple flare breaths before fellruin

[ivory isle]

intreasting question is it better to use the coins from thew allance raid to go from a 360 to 370 wepon (the bard 380 wep is optimized prity badly) or 390 to 400 ilvl ring. I am thinking wepon

[lyric summit]

definitely weapon

or just. both

only the i400 coin is capped

the other two aren't

just do ridorana and rabanastre twice, and one orbonne

[ivory isle]

gata see if there is a altermnate bow for bards for w/e reasson the ilvl 370 it way better stat wise than the 380 one. that lose of direct hit is rather sily

[lyric summit]

there's a priority pinned in the balance bard channel

but not sure if it goes down all the way to 370

[ivory isle]

[glass trellis]

Does DRK antimagic cape work against snakeboss blue ball tank swap nuke?

[rapid sapphire]

I know infirm soul is magic based, I don't know what damage Cursekeeper does (apart from being based off damage taken)

[heavy mist]

Should do magic

[wet stag]

Yeah it's magic

[fading shoal]

so how worth it is it to delevel to 49 from 50 in pyros to reflect light farm?
if i wanna get a weapon from eureka fast

[thorn bear]

if you don't want stats then don't do it

[fading shoal]

i'm already at the point where i need to light farm so ofc i'm doing it cuz i need stats

[quick verge]

if you're 50 then sure

cause it doesn't take much to level back from 49

[fading shoal]

should i lower my xp a bit on 49 as well so i dont level back up to 50 too fast?

[lusty turret]

you will want to chain a lot on 49 so no point in doing that cause you would break the chain, but chaining to 30 with light farm will boost you higher than lvl 50

[boreal edge]

@fading shoal u need to die 3 times

to not 50 fast

[fading shoal]

yep got it by now but thx anyway

[boreal edge]

it takes 3 chains to get back to 50

assuming u did do challenge log

you will get 50 soo fast

that you will hate it

[stark cosmos]

anyone would like do o1s with me on the sever malboro?

Just started the omega yesterday

[wet stag]

o1s is pretty dead man

ur better off starting with o9s

[stark cosmos]

i am not ilv380 gear yet

[lyric summit]

well, running old content that drops i340 gear won't help

get genesis gear, alphascape drops, orbonne drops, crafted gear

and try some o9s practice parties

[stark cosmos]

👌

right now i am at 372

[lyric summit]

or suzaku/seiryu ex, that's harder than story mode omega but less difficult that savage

[wet stag]

you only need 370 to do o9s

[stark cosmos]

👌all rite thanks

[icy trench]

im 371 ilvl should i just grind alpha v4 for gear?

[lyric summit]

v4 only drops tokens for the chest pants and gloves i think?

if you want the full set then you'll have to do all floors

[rapid sapphire]

yeah (and weekly token until lock is removed maybe in final sb msq patch 4.56). since that's 380 stuff might be worth also getting body/leg from monastary if can stand cid's erp edgelord voice acting lines

[quick verge]

i hate adds already

😔

[errant kayak]

why do casters want S when there's clearly a nin in the party smh

[desert trench]

South means they don't have to move at all for clock positional mechanics and no matter where the boss goes, they'll always be in the correct spot

ninja doesn't have to be south for anything but the occasional positional which in a pinch can be fenagled with true north

always be casting is very powerful

[errant kayak]

valid point

still mildly pissed i was given W

[desert trench]

to be fair you only have to be W for a brief amount of time in most fights

especially in like, o11s you only have to be there for like a total of 20 seconds in the entire fight

you should take southwest so you can retain either positional with only a flick of your position

[errant kayak]

was o11s, it's more i don't have to use true north during flamethrower and save it for panto

[desert trench]

ask for sw/se

[errant kayak]

usually do, but it didn't matter much anyways

[desert trench]

ye

[errant kayak]

people kept dying to star/lar and somehow flamethrower so I'd did what anyone would do

it do be like that

bless the reduced true north cd though

now reduce it to 60

[boreal edge]

might as well remove positionals

than lower the cd

ok so mh as a SAM what's my stats priority ? reach 1633sks for the dps rotation then dump everything in crit?

[gaunt python]

there are different sks tiers but in general you just meld crit then dh/det

[echo blaze]

det?

[lyric summit]

it's good, it affects dots iirc, and the sam dot is a big part of your damage

[echo blaze]

oki

[gaunt python]

it's low priority but it's not a bad stat

you got a link to know those sks tier?

[pastel iron]

a question about upgrading rakshasha equipment

where do you get the 2nd material?

[simple sky]

buy it from the tomestone vendor

100 mendacity for 1 doman reiyaku

[torn prairie]

Is the iLvl 400 Omega/Scaevan gear better than the 390 Elemental gear?

[dull radish]

many pieces will be, some won't be

depends on the job and build

what job do you play?

[pastel iron]

thanks @simple sky

[torn prairie]

WHM

I have no idea what materia to use

[pastel cobalt]

Piety to comfort > Crit > Determination/Direct Hit

[dull radish]

I know folks were working on a BiS potentially using the 390 eureka stuff but I haven't seen one finalized and posted yet

but yeah, follow that rough priority for materia, for sure^

[lusty turret]

dont meld direct hit on a healer unless you go for meme dps output

[torn prairie]

So I could go without any Piety, I guess.

[pastel cobalt]

Direct hit is fine on healers. It gives slightly more damage than Det, Det gives slightly more healing. In both cases, the difference between the two is very small.

[pastel iron]

so i can buy only yama grimoire atm, what should i put materia in 1st?

[wet stag]

crit

[lusty turret]

what was ist, approximately a dps increase by 0.5% for a 3% loss of healing or smth

[wet stag]

i know the yama grimoire is something gross like det sks

[lusty turret]

i meld dh myself, but i go for the dps, which you shouldnt do if you arent comfortable to a high level with the healing

but ye, if you are happy with where your piety is, the most important stat will be crit

[dull radish]

also can consider a bit of sps if it suits your fancy, don't go all out with it, but bit speedy WHM is still cozy WHM

though adjusting piety is also a note when considering running at different sps, as well

[pastel iron]

det sks?

[wet stag]

meld crit

since the grimoire has det sks on it

[lusty turret]

just checked stats on the elemental +2 gear

the pants, those will be strong on a healer. for the other pieces without doing any calculations, you are probably better off with the 400 pieces from savage/genesis

[dull radish]

(genesis, not creation)

better <3

[lusty turret]

but if you want specific numbers you probably need to go to the balance discord, the whm people are really nice

should definitely be trying to do 6.5k or higher. 7k is average for samurai clearing O9S.

[wet stag]

380 weapon

[blazing pelican]

Oh, sorry. That's the current average. Things get skewed towards the end. 6.5k was average dps when the fight came out.

Why 380 tho. Go kill the snek a few times.

[rapid sapphire]

if it's crafted 380 can augment it too since that's basically free

commercial survival manual II when

[icy trench]

is DRK ok to use for end game content and does it have any advantages over PLD/WAR?

I started 3 weeks ago and am about the hit i380. I don't know enough about the game to make comparisons between the tank classes. After i380 I assume savage raids are next on the to do list and I want to be prepared.

[wraith spire]

technically all tanks are valuable at endgame unless you are world first or totally hardcore

play what you're best at and enjoy

it's really just best for dungeons but it can be taken to raids

[vital cypress]

if you want world first you need to bring a

DRK

not really but the first UCOB clear having a DRK in it, at the height of THIS JOB IS WORTHLESS, was probably the funniest thing this game has ever spawned

[wraith spire]

lol

[vital cypress]

doubly so when every theorycrafter started ripping the job and the fight apart trying to figure out what weird gimmick the player had stumbled upon, then he was like "I like DRK, it's fun"

[wraith spire]

lol

so yeah if you find something fun you'll be better at the job then forcing to go so called "meta"

as long as you don't take more then 1 of the same job its all good

[icy trench]

hmm ok thanks.

[wraith spire]

(as that slows down the LB)

yw

[gaunt python]

Plus you're bound to play better on a job you like in comparison to one you hate

[desert trench]

@icy trench Dark Knight is specifically a good tank with regards to self-mitigation and magic-mitigation. DPS wise it is near Warrior atm, above Paladin

[wraith spire]

pld blocks magic now too

[desert trench]

No tank is specifically a detriment, each has weaknesses, each has strengths

I'm aware PLD blocks magic now too

[wraith spire]

👍

[desert trench]

DRK still does it better

Magic tbs are just tickles for drk

[desert trench]

laughs in

doubly so when every theorycrafter started ripping the job and the fight apart trying to figure out what weird gimmick the player had stumbled upon, then he was like "I like DRK, it's fun"``` This was mentioned in an interview with Famitsu iirc, not theorycrafters

[vital cypress]

i mean this was two separate things

[desert trench]

the TC community figured DRK would be in the world first and didn't care

the TC/World Prog community is quite aware of the prog strengths of DRK and why it's useful in raids such as UCOB/UWU

[vital cypress]

oh yeah

the really high-level people weren't particularly weirded out, but it threw a lot of semi-hardcore people for a loop

[desert trench]

it threw the meta chasers off sure

[heavy mist]

TC?

[wet stag]

theorycrafting

[icy trench]

does it matter which server I am in if i want to find raid parties? I was looking it up and certain servers were known for raiding? Is that not the case anymore because the party finder uses the data center? I'm not sure if it always has or not. really new to the game

[wet stag]

yeah raiding uses the datacentre

you can put up a cross world pf

the "raiding servers" thing was really only a thing before cross world pf

[icy trench]

alright thanks.

[leaden obsidian]

"Raiding server" would presumably still matter if you want to join a linkshell or free company related to raiding

Final Omega question: Any ideas why I was targeted for Oversampled in this clip? https://clips.twitch.tv/LivelyBombasticMoonPipeHype

[desert trench]

only reason would be not both tanks on the left

[blazing pelican]

Looks like there wasn't 2 people on the monitor side. If there's not 2 people then it picks someone at random.

[desert trench]

it randomly chooses appropriste targets

if there ain't two dudes on the side, it randomly chooses someone else

[cold ember]

I think its proximity based?

[summer moss]

Other people have also said it's cause our warrior was being a dummy so we'll go with that 👍

[stable basin]

100% that

[twin citrus]

I mean, your WAR wasn't on the monitor side it looks like.

[desert trench]

monitors are not proximity, it just randomly picks 2 targets that are on the correct side

or in the video above, it randomly picked the other one

[icy trench]

can someone explain to me seiryu ex double tank swap

I am off tank and am supposed to be absorbing both tank buster moves

[heavy mist]

were u just in a party

[icy trench]

yes lol

[heavy mist]

Did u have a scythe

[icy trench]

yes dont kill me

[heavy mist]

lol

Anyways

During the cast of Cursekeeper you provoke, they shirk you

Take the tank buster

WAIT

The other tank provokes during the next cursekeeper cast and you shirk him

and tanks that and keeps it

Thats how it works

[icy trench]

how long does the cursekeeper debuff last?

[heavy mist]

just dont worry about it

i dont know the exact time, but as long as u dont tank the tank buster with the cursekeeper debuff

and its okay to hold the boss

cause the other tank will take it back in time

[icy trench]

it makes sense if only one person can hold cursekeeper at a time. the way that I was looking at it, is that since the first tank took the debuff it would remain on him even during the next cycle.. or be applied to us both since I took it.. so i thought I was supposed to take both tb and other tank takes both debuff

ehh.. im stupid

[heavy mist]

its ok

Generally u wanna shirk someone after they provoke

if they are going to take it back

If you know that a tank swap isnt coming up in the next 2 minutes

its okay to provoke the boss and shirk the tank for more enmity

any tips on making gil? not looking to get rich quick. Would like something I'd have to work towards

[cold ember]

One way to start is to limit ur spending .

[latent temple]

First thing I would say is get a retainer and check to see if anything in your inventory is worth some cash on MB
