pagos light was doubled a long while back

#

pyros crystals were buffed, and logograms are mostly dirt cheap

silent iris
#

Right, so basically they ease previous area's with more recent updates to allow people to catch up?

jolly sluice
#

yep! Makes me glad I waited til 4.5 to get started on Eureka

silent iris
#

I see, ty guys

glass trellis
#

Also Tuesday

#

When everyone get Regalia

#

As a new player, just sit in car

silent iris
#

Yep, free 4mount transport

#

carrying level 1's like me around for FATE trains

inland ore
#

Let's play guess the content.

steady pebble
#

one of the 24mans

lyric summit
#

some oldass 8man normal mode

inland ore
#

It was thunder god. roo4

steady pebble
#

yus, i was right

quick verge
#

did the mechanics adjust around your ley lines

inland ore
#

There was one TG sword pattern where I had to run out to narnia and AM back.

#

Thankfully I had the procs for days.

steady pebble
#

where he does 3 swords on platform?

quick verge
#

you can just stand to the side of the 1st and move back after it snapshots

steady pebble
#

ye

inland ore
#

I know, but I was in the 2nd one initially, so I had to move a bunch regardless.

quick verge
#

smh my head

#

just manaward and eat a vuln stack

inland ore
#

Nah, I'm a content respecting player.

#

However, there were moments, like during that cross attack during the last boss, where I would just AM to someone random in hopes that they were standing with the group.

#

They rarely were.

steady pebble
#

rip

simple sky
#

respecting 24 man content? why

fathom matrix
#

so the onyl way to get Rakshasa weapons is by crafting?

torn kindle
#

Yes, or by buying them on the marketboard.

fathom matrix
#

too expensive

#

guess ill suffer

scenic patrol
#

Getting Rakshasa weapons and turning it into Yama gear is the most cost effective way

#

To gear up

fathom matrix
#

and they arent even godo

scenic patrol
#

Substats are irrelevant while gearing up

#

Get the ilvl up first

steady pebble
#

unless you are already leveled up and geared on your crafters, making rakshasa might be more expensive

fathom matrix
#

do you guys think i should waste 170k on rakshasa weapon to gear up

#

cuz if i do, ill have like 110k left

#

im trying to think better alternative, but they require too much time

#

i wanna gear up asap

simple sky
#

"waste"

fathom matrix
#

i only said that because ill only be using it for like 1 day

#

cuz ill be going to seiryu and savage for some gear when i reach the ilvl

simple sky
#

can you clear it?

fathom matrix
#

yes

#

already cleared it as a tank, i should be able as a dps

simple sky
#

just farm the weapon on a tank then lol

fathom matrix
#

but wouldnt it be better if u go dps cuz if you press NEED on a item based on your job, you get it almost guarantee

simple sky
#

kill it 10 times for a guaranteed one

#

10 totems = any weapon

#

most people just want the dog

fathom matrix
#

as if my party wont mistake

simple sky
fathom matrix
#

i guess i coould do that

#

ye im taking that advice

#

ty

glossy musk
#

Seiryu is piss easy so you should be fine

#

even with lots of fuckups

#

you'll clear

simple sky
#

woah farm parties 2nd add phase prog parties tho

glossy musk
#

"o12s farm party"

wipes to numbers

ocean forge
#

you underestimate how bad people can be at Seiryu

glossy musk
#

You're not wrong there

heavy mist
#

Indeed just give echo plz

gaunt python
#

seiryu is a shitfest usually

glossy musk
#

Does Seiryu not have echo yet?

simple sky
#

nope

scenic patrol
glossy musk
#

God bless

#

this is why I use cactbot

#

no more triggering

lyric summit
#

it sets off cactbot if you're in ucob

#

cause it turns triggers on based on the zone

scenic patrol
#

Too bad you can't send tells to people in instances

#

But I can always send it in FC chat

ocean forge
#

wooooooo

#

Suzaku mount acquired

#

43 runs, i rolled a 82

#

Kamuy I have now: Susano, Byakko, Tsukuyomi, Suzaku, Seiryu

#

now... should I do Lakshmi/Shinryu

#

or hop over to o9s

scenic patrol
#

Lakshmi is literally braindead as fuck

wet stag
#

So are the people who farm it tbf

ocean forge
#

lol

#

god damn it...

#

Shinryu weapons look pretty good yo

#

gonna grab a few shinryu scales at the very least

#

i wasn't gonna do Shinryu before

#

but now

#

now I am motivated

glossy musk
dull radish
#

looks like it haha

simple sky
#

free loot

ocean forge
#

I am reviewing some Shinryu EX stuff

#

In phase 2, I saw a part where the whole team run to the middle of Shinryu to get doom

#

How does that work?

lyric summit
#

he does a wyrmwail which is an arena wide aoe with the only safespot being under him

#

it's like 5-10y inside the doom aoe too, not exactly on it

#

people stand barely one foot in the doom and wonder why they got hit

scenic patrol
#

You shouldn't see that mech iirc

lyric summit
#

depends on how bad phase 1 went and how shit the dps is

#

but I think he still does one cone/donut anyways, unless you skip from add phase to enrage with a really big p1 push

#

the doom is a side effect of standing under shinryu and doesn't really have anything to do with the mechanic itself, just a donut and the doom is there so that you don't afk in there on blm or something

ocean forge
#

I see

#

Doom only works if you keep standing on it

#

Dancing in and out doesn't matter

#

In this case, we are avoiding donut

lyric summit
#

ye

ocean forge
#

Thanks for answering my question

#

I will learn Shinryu later :D

#

I'm coming for those scales and weapons

ocean forge
#

i assume that Shinryu buddy system is

#

tank/dps, tank/dps, healer/dps, healer/dps?

lyric summit
#

yeah

ocean forge
#

thanks

boreal edge
#

should be able to skip half fight with i400

lyric summit
#

yeah but people get weakness openers because of tidal wave deaths

boreal edge
#

hope 5.1 ex is good ex like thordan

steep iris
#

implying people can even do deltascape tier dps in i400 in learning parties

#

a lot of people i see in learning parties can't even do 5k dps even without dying

lyric summit
#

zodiark extreme owo

steep iris
#

9s btw

boreal edge
#

5k isnt deltascape nums

steep iris
#

7 deaths

#

make it 8 cause he killed me in blaze too

boreal edge
#

i thought ultimate legends are immortal beings?

#

jk tho

lyric summit
#

didn't know you played drg @steep iris

steep iris
#

totally

#

me and my lv 50 drg

lyric summit
#

don't need to censor your own name

ocean forge
#

ahhhh

#

i shouldn't see other player's log

#

i just found out that one of the samurai in my Tsukuyomi party didn't use Higanbana, Gurren, Hagakure AT ALL

#

and barely use enough Kaiten

#

I want to cry now

gaunt python
#

Sounds about right paissaowo

#

Why use your dps ogcds when you can just spam midare

ocean forge
#

basic math is too hard

#

funnily, he do a lot of Shinten

#

but he end up never having enough for kaiten + midare

#

so even his midare are shit by default

gaunt python
#

Lol

ocean forge
#

i think there is like 15 midare

#

only 4-5 kaiten

gaunt python
#

Was their dps like 4k

ocean forge
#

3.4k

gaunt python
#

Wow even lower than I thought

#

Sounds like your average Sam tbh

#

Doing less dmg than the tanks

ocean forge
#

16 midare, 7 kaiten

gaunt python
#

Idk what they're doing tbh

ocean forge
#

i think i did average as a Sam

#

let's see

#

5.7k for Suzaku, 5.5k for Seiryu

#

right in the middle

#

i am happy for what I have now because Seiryu is the first (maybe second) time i gone into doing all these stuff

#

previously, i just do weekly and get tomestones

gaunt python
#

I havent done any fights recently on Sam

#

Altho my seiryu was 6.2k

ocean forge
#

oh wow, my 5.5k on Seiryu is on Feb

gaunt python
#

Tbh I should be able to get higher numbers 2think

ocean forge
#

i wonder if I can go higher

gaunt python
#

7k is doable

ocean forge
#

unfortunately, i am on PS4, so getting data is a pot shot

#

i just drop by fflogs and see if my party members upload their parses

gaunt python
#

Stop being a console pleb and become a PC noble

ocean forge
#

oh damn

#

top SAM on Seiryu clocked in on 8.27k

gaunt python
#

Like I said the dmg could be higher

#

I'm prolly only gonna be able to get 7k tho

ocean forge
#

regardless, the data taught me one thing

#

nothing works if you suck

#

3.4k on Tsukuyomi....

gaunt python
#

Dw it could be lower

#

Actually I wonder what the worst is

#

Huh guess the lowest is 890 dps

ocean forge
#

lol

gaunt python
#

Wait the minimum dps for Sam is really low in comparison to the other dpses lmao

latent temple
#

Is mch actually that good or is there so few of them that the only people who play them are stupid good at it
Im trying to rationalize that 1k dps gap

wet stag
#

I wouldn't call 2.7k dps stupid good lol

jolly sluice
#

It's probably the latter, less MCH players mean lowest common denominator is higher. That's also why sam is at the bottom.

wet stag
#

But yea I don't know any bad mch mains

latent temple
#

well I mean in comparison to the others

zinc vortex
#

i know a mch main but i'm pretty sure he's clinically insane at this point

latent temple
#

isnt that a requirement to play mch

wet stag
#

No you just need good ping

#

The insanity is a nice bonus tho

quick verge
#

good ping isn't a prerequisite

#

you just need the will to hurt the people around you

stoic vapor
#

This is more question, but particular to this content. How do you guys deal with miscast? I tend just to studder step but wasn't sure if there was a better method cause I never see anyone else shimmy

dull radish
#

Mmm by miscast I assume you mean starting a cast you don't want to finish, and instead want to cancel it? Usually I'll wiggle a bit, you can also just hit escape as well. But most ideally you just do what you can to not be in that situation in the first place, it should be a very, very infrequent thing (unless you were going to have to move anyways and the cast will naturally cancel from that movement)

stoic vapor
#

Ye. It mostly occurs when a mob dies because someone got it before I did. But alrighty, didn't know esc. canceled too, ty!

dull radish
#

Mmhmm~ usually what you should aim to do in that situation, if your target might die before you finish your cast, start it on a healthier target instead if possible, otherwise try to use a shorter cast/instant, otherwise just cast anyways and maybe it'll go off in time

#

Often can happen for like AoE for BLM, you wanna target the one with the most HP left and switch if that changes haha

jolly sluice
#

I don't know if this works with PC controls but the jump button on pad also cancels casts.

dull radish
#

Yeah jump works too but also you can't start another cast until you land

jolly sluice
#

Well you don't jump when you cancel it with that button (unless you hit it twice) it just simply cancels casts at first

#

on pad anyway, dunno about PC

dull radish
#

Maybe it just takes place of the escape on PC then for that first input, I don't really use controller. On PC jump just makes you jump, as far as I'm aware

jolly sluice
#

probably!

silent path
#

remove savage too and extreme's also GWrjkKappaFail

hallow vault
#

Meh, I'm not against enrage timers but wouldn't miss them if they were gone

silent path
#

i mean

#

what's the funny of doing a fight if a boss doesn't enrage lol

#

that just stops people even being good at all lol

hallow vault
#

well you need to be good to even reach the end of the fight

#

good at mechanics at least

silent path
#

but still it's jjust doing mechanics

#

if ur good at mechanic but imagine u do like

#

1k dps

#

doesn't matter u clear it eventually

#

after 30 minutes LOL

simple sky
#

"lets let dps be as bad as possible"

silent path
#

that's why I like enrage timers honestly lol

#

it's stupid not having enrage timers

hallow vault
#

maybe the enrage could be something different, like, from the X minutes mark each attack does more damage, so it's like a soft enrage when the healers are overwhelmed

silent path
#

maybe

#

but idk I like my enrage timers really not gl

#

it gives you a reason to be good at the game at least

#

by DPSing or healing and doing the mechanics at same time

simple sky
#

nah just wipe the raid imo

hallow vault
#

yeah, I guess you're right

simple sky
#

if you can't meet this check you don't deserve the kill

silent path
#

exactly that's why the enrage timer is there really

#

if you can't clear it

#

improve

#

simple

#

everyone can improve

hallow vault
#

oh yeah, agree on that one

simple sky
#

personally I like enrage timers cuz I dont' want to fight the same boss for 30min

silent path
#

I just like them there

#

without enrage timers doesn't matter for you to improve ur DPS or performance at all

#

it's like oh I can just do this mechanics by walking

#

no need to move at all

#

erm no need to DPS at all* that's what I meant

glossy musk
#

Without enrage timers you can just raise and make it through any boss

#

So they’d need to remove battle raise

#

Which I would love to see battle raise removed but not enrage timers. Those are important for any game

scenic patrol
#

without enrage you'll be able to clear what would be unsalvageable mechanical fuck ups

latent temple
#

Brute forcing a figght is not learning it and certainly doesnt improve you as a player which I would imagine is the goal for Savages and above content

#

Waiting for a party in Party finder can be suffering sometimes

ocean forge
#

Shinryu EX cleared

#

turns out, all we need to do is to respect and execute the mechanics

#

hmmmm

#

how strange

quick verge
#

almost like having 300% echo and i380+ gear allows you ignore the troublesome mechanics

#

hmmmm

errant kayak
#

You can skip a huge chunk of shinryu rn

#

Can Easily skip divebombs last i was in there

ocean forge
#

you underestimate how bad people can be

#

i am just about average

#

but some folks man...

#

i just had a mage in Shinryu EX practice party

#

360 weapon, 320 right side

#

worse than that... don't seems to understand mechanics

#

practice

ocean forge
#

lol

#

Tsukuyomi is now my favorite SB primal

#

her tank deco is selling like hot cakes

#

i manage to sold 4 in the last 3 days

boreal edge
#

@errant kayak i didnt see divebombs in i340 let alone i400

ocean forge
#

In my last run, we skip the reiryu in phase 1 and went straight for phase 2

ocean forge
#

What's the most reliable way for a tank to handle the add phase for Shinryu EX?

#

Do I want to single target the big guys

#

Or just AOE nuke the whole group with my team?

#

Or it no longer matters because we have out gear it?

#

Just looking for ways to make the add phase less error prone.

boreal edge
#

just aoe em all

#

you can ignore maintaining small adds aggro

#

they barely hurt anyone

jolly sluice
#

assuming this was meant for Seiryu Ex, yeah I never have a problem with the burst damage when healing it.

boreal edge
#

he meant shinryu

jolly sluice
#

omg especially aoe then. That was fine even when I was healing it at a lower ilvl

boreal edge
#

death sentence hurt abit

#

but u dont need to cd it

#

unless u getting 2 in the face

ocean forge
#

Noted.

#

Thanks

shadow smelt
#

So what now

#

I finished that last mission

jolly sluice
#

last mission?

shadow smelt
#

Im geared to at least 390 items. Where do I go now?

#

The most recent msq

#

I cant remember the name but you get the Scion Traveler set

zinc vortex
#

you go nowhere

#

congrats you've finished the expansion

#

please wait warmly for the next one

jolly sluice
#

Oh, it's up to you really. If you want there's tons of extreme trials you could challenge. Or you could do the savage versions of the omega raids. You could also pick up crafting or another job. You could also simply unsub and wait for Shadowbringers to come out

#

there's also housing, airship/subs, glamours, etc. It just depends on what you feel like

shadow smelt
#

Subbing aint too much of an issue

#

I managed to do the last few MSQ w this free log in period lol

jolly sluice
#

oh, great!

#

how many days do you have left?

shadow smelt
#

And I have abut 5 days left

#

So I wanna make the most of em

jolly sluice
#

Have you done the ivalice alliance raids? There's 3 in total

#

actually, nevermind, I know what you should do

#

Go to the gold saucer and start earning MGP so you can get the FFXV crossover stuf when it drops. You'll need about 270k total I believe?

ah okay

so 230k

#

not that im going for the card anyhow

#

so basically i just need 210k

#

i have over 300 something thous

on my main

#

but you probably have to do the event for the mgp item to even unlock just like the Monastary

errant kayak
#

most likely ^

glossy musk
#

That's super cheap at least

#

230k is a few hours of work and done

nothing too wild

i meant

2nd akh morn

#

or was it 3rd?

2nd akh morn is 16 seconds into bahamut pepothink

So at ~86 seconds into the fight

you can get 2 akh morn in

but boy is it close

ocean forge
#

MOTHER FUCKING FUCK YES

#

ALL 7 KAMUY

#

OH FUCK YES

#

lol

#

long journey

#

I got Susano kamuy sometime last year, i think it took me 15 tries

#

I cleared Seiryu while it is fresh (quite proud of myself), and I got the wolf at around 60+ tries, i ended up farming seiryu up to 90-110 times because i want the weapons and I want to save up some totems for Gunbreaker/Dancer

#

the rest of the wolves I got in this order

  • Byakko 29 runs
  • Tsukuyomi 60+
  • Suzaku: 40+
  • Shinryu: like 5/6 runs
  • Lakshmi: 13
#

i didn't even plan for Shinryu / Lakshmi, i only want to do Shinryu for its scale and weapon for glams

#

i got the shinryu dog and I went... eh... why not, might as well finish the set

cold ember
#

I got my susano mount after 99 runs :(

ocean forge
#

My worse record so far is Sophia

#

100+ runs

#

I made the mistake of trading 20 totems for weapons glam...

#

And I got the bird at around 80+ runs

#

I promised myself to farm to 99 if I even hit 85

#

I don't have to keep the promise because I got the bird at 81-82 totems

#

I have heard that a player ran Seiryu 200 times without a wolf

#

And another player at 240 runs on Zurvan for the bird.

#

My best lucky get are Levi and Thordan, 1 clear.

#

Levi is my first mount back in ARR, I didn't knew a thing about mounts, or EX is an optional content, and the ponies are supposed to be rare.

cold ember
#

I got lucky rolls on the hw birb mounts

ocean forge
#

I got Thordan bird after a carried clear, I joined a farm party (I know, I was very inconsiderate) and I got carried to a clear.

cold ember
#

Won the sophic lanner and warring lanner with a 75 roll

ocean forge
#

I rolled on the bird by accident and I got the bird.

#

Nice

#

Warring is Seph, right?

cold ember
#

Yeah

#

I'm currently missing suzaku ,shin and byakko for doggos

ocean forge
#

Bismarck is White Lanner.
Ravana is Rose.
Thordan is Round.
Nidhogg is Dark.

#

I cannot remember the title of the rest of the birds.

#

Oh, yeah, Seph is Warring.

cold ember
#

Sophia is sophic i forgot whats zurvan's one

ocean forge
#

Demonic

#

I will not attempt to recall the name of the ARR ponies.

cold ember
#

They have weird spellings

ocean forge
#

Susano is Reveling.
Lakshmi is Blissful.
Byakko is Auspicious (tq phone dictionary)
Suzaku is Eupho... Something
Tsukuyomi is Lunar
Shinryu is Legendary
Seiryu is...

#

Byakko is the easiest to farm out of the three you are missing.

#

I was once in a 1 tank 1 healer 6 DPS farm party, it was insane

#

Seiryu is Hallowed.

cold ember
#

I dont wanna run shin 99 times lol

#

Suzaku has been the worse farming experience for me lol

ocean forge
#

I can understand

#

I actually farm Shinryu for weapon glam and scales (for more weapon glam in 5.X)

#

I just got the whistle on my 5th run...

#

Suzaku has been the worse farming experience for me lol

#

What happened?

cold ember
#

Not many pfs for it rite now so i went with df so many new ppl trying it out is so chaotic lol

#

@ocean forge

ocean forge
#

DF is a mess

at least with PF you can filter out people with lower ilvl

#

Suzaku is 1 of the annoying ex trials in my opinion

ocean forge
#

tell me about it

#

i was just in one "clear" party

#

my co-tank is doing horribly

#

apparently, they main mages in savage stuff

quick verge
#

that's a good gif

#

you don't need to greed chariots in add phase anyway

#

just switch to twin

#

the real greed is seeing how much tank stance you don't need

rapid flax
#

i joined a suzaku farm party a few weeks ago and the tanks were taking turns dying to dumb shit, including plunging into the middle of the arena, and we barely killed it before enrage

#

i insta left after that

geez

#

i only started Suzaku 2 weeks ago

I love suzaku except my ping is so bad that I could be halfway through the safe zone and Hotspot will STILL hit me. It's so frustrating to do everything right and still be punished.

why would mch be at the bottom

also smn/blm should be higher imo

is there a txt document into the inner machinations of this god's brain

ocean forge
#

I feel that MCH is B/C

#

Even RDM should be around B/C

sweet blade
#

Pretty sure this is for farming/speedrunning savage

steep iris
#

mch wouldn't be D for speedrunning tho

ocean forge
#

Still... MCH should be higher for post prog

quick verge
#

the existence of refresh makes mch inherently more useful than most other jobs

sweet blade
#

Yeah but BRD also has refresh

ocean forge
#

Random silly question.. If Ninja has TA every 60s and TA last 10s.... Wouldn't that means BLM can line up 2 Fouls in a TA window

#

I have no idea how it works on actual savage content

steep iris
#

running brd and mch exists

#

and yes lchronos

#

but that's only if you somehow get to double foul during a TA window

ocean forge
#

You need some weird ass phase transition to get that

#

Somehow

glossy musk
#

BRD and MCH is pretty rare these days for meta

#

BLM and SMN brings a lot more

steep iris
#

doesn't mean it's as bad as bringing whm into speedruns tho 🤔

#

like

ocean forge
#

The only healer setup for speed run is SCH + regen AST

steep iris
#

If you bring whm into speedruns you're throwing

ocean forge
#

You don't even get to pick

steep iris
#

if you bring mch nobody will say you're throwing unless they're dumb

glossy musk
#

The tier list makes sense to me though. Top tier is the guaranteed slots, second is guaranteed only because there’s nothing better atm, third is situational/flex spots, 4th is very situational, 5th is “why ever”

steep iris
#

if anything i'd put mch at B, bump up smn and maybe blm

glossy musk
#

Bumping up to A would mean it’s part of the core meta instead of a flex spot

#

And right now those 3 are flex

ocean forge
#

If the list goes with BST's naming convention, instead of SABCD

#

Then it will be less ambiguous on why the jobs are put into different tiers

steep iris
#

i guess

#

I still wouldn't put mch at D

glossy musk
#

Personally I’d put it at C

ocean forge
#

I think we all actually agree that MCH is C

#

No matter how much we don't care for Wildfire

#

Or MCH in general

steep iris
#

I value it more cause of refresh and hypercharge

#

but C is reasonable too

#

final fights with double refresh is the comfiest thing ever

#

even in o9s i bottom out around the 6 min mark

quick verge
#

move drk to E

ocean forge
#

Lolol

#

So DRK is more useless than WHM?

steep iris
#

it doesn't have any aoe mitigation

#

drk has dank personal mitigation but it's not necessary

#

i wouldn't say it's outright throwing if you bring a drk but it's still kinda ponder

ocean forge
#

WAR x PLD too good

steep iris
#

not that anybody cares about healers' dps anyway

quick verge
#

I cringe when I see a drk in any content with raidwides - a person that does 12s on drk

steep iris
#

VD does speedruns as drk iirc

#

and his group has been top 10 in the past iirc

#

so like it's not THAT bad

quick verge
#

I think drk is actual throwing in ucob and uwu too but

steep iris
#

drk/pld in uwu would be pretty good

#

war/drk tho lul

ocean forge
#

May I ask what's different in UWU?

steep iris
#

drk has tons of personal mitigation

#

for ultima that's dank

#

drk can take those busters in the ass no sweat

(war/pld prob still better though tbh)

the main thing for specialist is either going for whatever makes the current specialist recipes or whichever crafter you need a stat boost in

#

Potentially a very hard question or a very easy one... MNK's oGCD skills... Which one to use first?

Still practicing monk atm, and sometimes 2 or 3 of them came off CD at the same time

oh thanks ! so I can just get msq duty roulettes for 300 a pop ea day now until i fill up my set with ironworks?

if you want that's fine, you'll also naturally find items as you progress from now on.

@hollow pulsar The MSQ gives 500 each day actually: 300 for the roulette bonus and 200 for the dungeon itself (with an additional 100 if there's a party member who never did the dungeon before)

azure carbon
#

Hey how does the spear that targets a healer in thordan ex work? I'm aware that if it kills the healer it wipes the instance. How do I make sure it doesn't wipe people

dull radish
#

healer goes and stands near the wall, everyone else stands between them and the center of the arena, with a tank in front popping a light cd especially if synced

#

it's shared damage with the initial person hit taking the biggest damage of it, so splitting it up between people makes it more surviveable

azure carbon
#

Ahhh OK. Thanks

#

_> thatll make birb farming more bearable

dull radish
#

mmhmm. I don't know how the damage looks unsynced, you can probably just have the OT intercept it, but usually everyone's all grouped up together there anyways more or less

jolly sluice
#

chances are if you're not geared to skip that part, you're not geared enough to ignore that mechanic either

#

just going by the parties I was in anyway, I could have been playing with ultratrash

dull radish
#

I haven't ran it since back in HW, along with a good amount of other stuff, so I don't know how stuff is so much when you unsync

junior basin
#

OT is supposed to intercept it with a CD and everyone else but the target and MT should be between OT and target. AST or SCH shields are cool there.

#

That's the jist of it really, but memory isn't exactly clear 4 years later.

dull radish
#

yeah, that's how it works (and what I suggested above, too~)

junior basin
#

But it's important to pile any spare bodies inbetween OT and target as a portion of the damage is reduced for everyone it hits.

#

Iirc, the healer dies if she takes any damage at all from that?

#

And then everyone else dies.

dull radish
#

no, they can take damage, they just can't die to it

#

but if anyone at all, even if it's not the healer, dies to it, it forces a wipe

junior basin
#

Shouldn't be a an issue with shields and itemlevel then.

dull radish
#

unsync you probably don't need a full stack but everyone should be roughly stacked up there anyways so yeah

no

dragoon is good

umbral lagoon
#

This guy in the FFXV Reddit discord ( off topic) is saying that dragoon is meta but bad becuase iy cannot maintain and is the lowest dps

steep iris
#

it's lower on the personal dps side, but the amount of raid dps it provides with piercing, battle litany, and eye is pretty big

dull radish
#

it's honestly the most integral part of the meta comp

#

even more important than NIN

glossy musk

He’s wrong and stupid

#

It’s low personal DPS but brings a ton of buffs to the raid

umbral lagoon

umbral lagoon
#

I can send you the discord if you want to talk some sense into him

steep iris

the reason why this guy is shitting on drg is cause he's a sam and he's prob getting denied from pfs

glossy musk

Probably grey parse and that’s why he gets “bullied”

umbral lagoon
#

I just don't play dragoon but I know it isn't bad

which arguably shouldn't happen

glossy musk

Like nobody cares if a 90% SAM joins

You could make a parse from it, upload it to FFlogs, and then paste the link to https://xivanalysis.com/

It might be gear. I couldn't beat the o12s dummy as BRD with 380 gear since it had a very low amount of crit, but I don't know if DRG is as reliant on substats

Oh yeah, some of the dummies can be overtuned/undertuned.

!faq weaving

storm frostBOT
ocean relic
#

but im guessing thats fitting 2 OGCDs between a GCD?

wet stag
#

yea

#

dont double weave jumps generally

ocean relic
#

so if my ping is too high double weaving will actually screw over my dps?

torn kindle
#

it's much harder to do so for the jumps since they have a longer animation lock

#

only for the jumps

wet stag
#

or jump + anything

torn kindle
#

double weaving normal oGCDs like Mirage Dive and Blood for Blood shouldn't delay your GCD

#

or by very little

wet stag
#

it shouldnt at all unless your gcd is like 2.20

quick verge
#

if your ping is above a certain point then weaving ogcd/jump will always have you clip

#

you're losing full gcds because of this

ocean relic
#

never realised

#

so i should only really be using one OGCD between a GCD?

torn kindle
#

As for Dragon Sight, you can bring in your chocobo as a healer to use it in dummy parses

#

two oGCDs is fine if neither of them is a jump
