People need to realize
The aoe doesn't come out so soon
And you have time to run to corners and back to a safe spot
what kill ppl mostly is the 6 man stack
That too
ppl see 2 purple aoes
But that's mainly panic
and chicken lose its head
Stack mid, purple aoe corners
Last group couldn't count neither
I invuln the first 3 thunder tethers
They either dont realize they need to grab it and I die or they fuck up subsequent swaps and kill themselves and someone else

I rarely have issues with tethers
Just that sometimes the people grabbing them stand too close to the party
They run like headless chickens
baddies are everywhere
anyway this is endgame questions channel and we turned it to rants
lol
- make clear party
- disband if they keep dying to dumb shit
- repeat until you break or you clear
Oops
Sounds grim but the only viable option I got
Anyways thanks for the input and letting me rant
Shits frustrating
I just want a weapon and maybe a mount
ex trial is midcore content, they can be pf, it's just up to luck, just keep trying you will eventually be able to clear, we have people who go in and clear on the 2nd pull some clear on the 10th pull just depend who you group with.
What do you think of doing the current EX trails with the job artifact gear?
ezclap
Should be at least lol
The ex trials are super lenient on dps/incoming damage
Well, that's minimum ilvl so it's doable. You just have to know what you are doing.
Legit job handout leftside and omega rightside is fine
Yeah I did all the trials in 430 and it wasn't an issue at all
Are there stat weights out for gunbreaker yet?
whats it mean by comfy
basically your preference
though the recommended GCD for GNB is 2.38-2.40 to make things line up better
Would you happen to know how much skill speed that is?
-1320 for 2.40 GCD - Base No Mercy windows
-1421 for 2.39 GCD - "I want to stay comfy"
-1523 for 2.38 GCD - "My ping is kinda bad"
From the Balance Discord
Yeah I prefer 2.39 myself just in case there's any latency
2.40 is perfect in a perfect world
but god knows this ain't one
2.40 is basically "I live right by the datacenter"
Direct hit isn't naturally on tank equipment, you have to meld for it.
Are there any sites that list the stat / meld priority for all jobs?
!faq balance
the balance discord has job-specific channels with a bunch of info
thanks
How is mch compared to the other dps
good
@stable basin if you were looking for a more detailed answer related to mch and its dps. Here's how it stacks up against all other dps
MCH is good especially in fights like Titan due to low uptime for melee and casters
Titan might not be low uptime once a pattern is learned on his dashes. An optimal spot to stand will be found to help with that
There's a neat clip of a BLM using Aetherial Manipulation and a well placed Ley Lines to keep good uptime during the mario kart phase
Idk but im going to main mch for my dps
I mean in normal you can just eat and shield everything but that’s not going to be possible in savage. I fully expect it to end up like a12s where MCH and BLM are god for it
Mch isnt far from mnk and drg ... and they eill do changes jn 5.1 so no telling where thing will be
Can’t wait for WHM to get nerfed and the few remaining healers that play this game to abandon ship

Wont happen. Whm is in a good place and so is sch balance wise. Ast needs buffs.
Yesh just buff ast
The problem that was with Titan was that he dashed across the entire arena. Any melee will be fucked on uptime unless the arena shrinks beforehand
Gapclosers tho
just save gap closers and arms length for it 
2 charges on gap closer 👍
Hey anyone can help me with Tatiana Ex? I need clear and PF sucks. I@ on aether-Gilgamesh
Thats where mch shines
I like new mch
Feels fluent
so whois the best tank for this xpac?
got ,y DRK to pre raid BIS but feels a bit bland at 80
wonder if warrior or Gunbreaker is better, got paladin to 80 but thats not too great either
Tank balance is very tight
WAR seems to have the least DPS right now but the others don't have Super Fell Cleave so
We might see a more defined meta preference emerge once savage drops but for now there doesn't seem to be much difference between them in terms of performance

WAR/DRK are lower dps on the fights we have but will also be hurt less by downtime
Just uhh if you don't like DRK then WAR isn't the best place to look
They play pretty similarly with DRK having a few more ogcds
i've heard gnb is fun but kinda annoying sometimes (weaving stuff)
I have DRK for my tank
looks coolest
trying to decide on a melee dps
are SAMs finally viable and accepeted?
pld got some neat stuff tbh
They were already viable
all classes are viable
Accepted, we'll see
well LNC nin etc were always in
SAM was better than NIN in Alphascape for the vast majority
they took away a lot of unique buffs
depends if majority of sams buck up
and actually learn how to play their job
also personally i'd vote for drg for melee
People seem to be coming around to the idea of having some non-utility dps in their statics so we'll see
well like i said
lot of utility was removed
from specific classes
i guess monks will always be in
Meta comp for prog as far as I can tell is like WHM/SCH/DRG/RDM and then filler
brotherhood and all
why DRG? didnt they get rid of their pierce?
ninja need serious buff
thought SAM had highest personal DPS
blm is
just synergy was removed, not a ton of utility, some was removed but most of it remained the same, with that being said, statics arent open to the idea of having selfish dps even now
BLM
of the melee at least and 2nd behind BLM
At least top 4
nin might be weak now for the first time since its inception
even TA isnt enough to make u take ninja over drg/sam or even mnk
statics are still stuck in the heavensward mindset so blm/sam is still discriminated against
its gonna take a lot of time to root out that stupidity
wonder how brds and DNC are doing
dps wise
and MCH
lot of people like them with ironman lol
brd is the strongest among rangers
mch is 2nd
dnc mostly used as padding job
and behind both even with its utility
imagine lv5 death omega
you would just run raid full BLU
"Don't worry, gois, I gat dis" *self-destruct combo at 95%*
Thankfully my static just cares about prog instead of parses
Should be WHM>SCH>AST, but it might just be the players I've run into that make SCH look the best
Parses before week 8 are a meme anyways
Especially with the ability we'll have to funnel people
You'll be able to get like i465 or something week 1 if you clear the tier and get all the coffers

that's omegameme though because you'd be getting non-bis coffers just for the sake of pumping ilvl for early parses
Won't those pieces still be BiS until we get the upgrade mats for weekly tome gear?
You can get the upgrade mats from savage but yeah
Oh, right, forgot they drop there
You'd just be short on tomes for your true bis if you got funneled
can someone tell me the difference between 2.2k crit and 3k crit?
https://ffxiv.ariyala.com/19H9T
Big dick damage vs 'no honey it's still a good size' damage.
tbh after setting the gear stuff, u endup with 1.3k+ skillspeed apparently without materia
by focusing everything on crit items
crit>dh>det
crit>det>dh
monk gear
are you going to be doing savage
yeah
so full eden gear+ mix of trial and eden accessories gives room for no skillspeed materia
then just get the eden chest, belt, shoes and ring until savage
cause there's no point in making a bis for normal mode when you can't get the drops needed
right
main stat is what making biggest difference
there is also crafted i450 coming in 30th july
that you can pentameld
Anyone cleared both ShB ex's? I got a handful of clears in the first. How difficult is the 2nd compared? Pugs struggled on the first, it was very taxing.
which is your 2nd?
I did Titania first, so 2nd is innocence. Sorry, should've just said the names
Innocence is very easy, easier than Titania
The main thing is just pay attention to spear positions
If you can do that and not clip the droplets with AOEs
you win
Innocence is 'dodge aoes electric boogaloo'
And if you have a charge ability you can meme the "fan" attack
just stand in the second AOE ring and pop it when the first goes off
no dodging required
Or jump scare healers by using charge right after server considers pillars done
Do u use 'healers adjust' macro?
Naw, I use it and run AOE at them. Two days ago we did Titania runs for our new trial to get his weapon
and we got to the second lightning phase
which we normally skip
it was at like...2%?
so I popped superbolide
and ran into everyone
Lmao
killed everybody except myself and the other tank
Did you kick your trial?
innocence has more individual responsiblity so you cant get c ⁉ cked by your team like in titania
For failing to skip second lighting
Nah he's alright, he leveled the job that we asked him to so he's not geared like he is in the job he applied for
DPS leaves a bit to be desired but not bad at all
I think he'll get the hang of it
and he speaks spanish to us
@quaint marten you can get fucked by ppl there s lot
yes but you dont instantly wipe like in titania
So I can post this every time he talks
thers slightly more leeway
Haha Leviathan is the best cause of rescue
every fucking run
every. fucking. run.
someone gets rescued
into thep it
i actually had a run saved because the tank LBed to tank laser misfire
pit*
I hate tanking nnocence Ex tho
we stacked in 1 star and tank LBed. barely lived
He just spins
cause not only does he jump around, he then proceeds to STAND STILL
so I'm like well guys
guess we're tanking at the corner
Our DRG cries every time we go innocence
Because of positionals
During rotating swords though?
True North
Technically during those you can run through his rotating attacks to get your positionals
that's what our mnk does
just requires timing
laughs in mch
and yes true north
u have 2 charges
and 45 secs cd
rotaty swords dont last 10 secs
Yeah a lot of raid groups are going double physical ranged for titan and shit this tier
cause
fuck all the movement
I'm pretty sure self promotion is against the rules
at least in incorrect channels such as this one
sooo I'm gonna delete that because I feel like it doesn't belong here nor contribute to any ongoing discussion
@stable basin
-while dragoon, ast, and nin rdps is forgottened about-
it was a joke about dancer being the only padder job
what would yall think of GNB's Bloodfest gaining an additional effect of "Resets Gnashing Fang recast timer"?
would that be too broke?
current state of the tanks. Totally.
even lining it up with no mercy would be broken even more
darn...it would spice up Bloodfest a little though
figured that'd be broke
it's as exciting as Reload was for MCH as is but not horrrrrible
maybe not reset but
"reduce recast timer by 8 ~ 10 seconds?"
it pushes you out of alignment with all raid buffs unless there's a fight with heavy downtime
bloodfest doesn't need anything extra
sometimes abilities are just to generate resource
and that's fine
It definitely doesn't need it considering GNB's top
I figure WAR will get a buff
right now I've not grouped with a SINGLE warrior at 80
it's weird
seeing them extinct
I'd be much bigger on having WAR on the table if it wasn't such a special snowflake with its gear
i hope WAR gets trait/change to gap closer to make it other tanks
my minimal expectation for adjustments
and please add block on Infuriate in Inner Release
so scrubs could not press it
and make me consider suicide
GF being reset by BF sounds like complete ass
tell it to BRD
same audio input for PP 3 stacks and Apex Arrow getting to 100
hurts my soul, i use PP the second i hear the sound
BF reset GF
means we need even more sks
to benefit for cd timer
to get extra usage
I don't really care how you can make it work
it just sounds ass
and I don't want to even imagine playing with that shit
and that will get gnb 5 - 6 extra usages of GF
that will make it do much more dps
than it is now
depending on fight
but assuming fights are 10 mins
by default
anyway if current playstyle is what annoy you in GNB
come see mch
it has same issue twofold
and im still dealing with it despite i hate that
btw this spearya i lost access to my previous account
and can no longer retrieve it back
old SIM roasted cant 2FA
ban evade on balance
well it used to be secret account
now i lost access to old account
i got no choice now
AST, MNK, NIN, BRD, and WAR been rare sights in end-game content from my experince.
I play WAR 

Well
My first 80 was war
Now I am almost 80 on gnb
War is basically
Same job as before... without stance dancing
Some aoe tweak and infuriate new mechanic... weird
indie company
lv76 mch cant do HW job quests
same to SCH
if you upgrade certain skills
you cant progress in job quests
just do them when you're the appropriate level 
you have to be like real special if you don't reach HW by 76
aren't HW abilities locked behind job quests
i think you don't deserve to play the game at that point
but that should be fixed
yeah
Ironic that nin is scarce in endgame when every single job rotation and opener revolve around ta
not a lot of people like doing a lot of input for little gains. Plus ninja that can't double weave and can only single weave to not clip their GCD lose A LOT of damage now
still odd they didn't give ninja a new skill that buffed the single mudra fuma shuriken while hyosho ranryu is an upgrade to raiton but replaces hyoton mudra combo
ninja used to lose 120 potency if they could not double weave without clipping. Now its 320 potency loss if you can't double weave.
but thats the most I know about the problems with ninja atm
I suppose my greed is premature i'm not at 80 yet with GNB personally soooooooo 
New to the discord- is this the right channel if I want to find people for Extreme trials?
not really, party finder's probably your best bet
burst heal vs regen heal what is better?
depends on the scenario but usually if there's no damage coming up regens are enough
What’s the main problem with NIN recently? I haven’t really touched in it ShB 80 yet and I’m considering is just because how much it’s in need 
Trying to find different stat weights to figure this out, but essentially I'd like to know what I should be melding as a Gunbreaker. I was under the belief that it's usually DH/Crit > but I've also heard whispers of SKS, and a couple FC mates just recommended Det and Tenacity which feels wrong, but maybe they're right and I'm just stubborn
high skill required for execution for okay dps @errant kayak
Sks > dh > det > crit
@errant kayak From what I've heard it's a lot more punishing to clip your GCD since it's now tied to Ninki generation
Riight... with needing to do raiton now
Would that be a problem with bunshin alignment to?
Or does that line up nicely
I wouldn't know the finer specifics, unfortunately.
Is that the GNB priority?
Get it down to about 2.39?
Yeah I thought so
That's what I'd heard but hearing FC mates go Ten/Det is like...
No idea
@lyric summit thanks for the response, is there a party finder in this discord or are you referring to something else?
in-game party finder
is there a guide anywhere for lvl 80 white mage? need meld/stat priority. i only really play white mage as a 2nd job.
!faq whmguide
!faq balance
go there
thanks
eden reset wen?
!weekly
Can't find any info on what the gemstone trader in Eulmore offers, can anyone shed some light?
How do you unlock the Crystarium trader? Same as Eulmore?
Yes, level 2 in all areas
Is the ronkan gear good or just for alt gearing? I only really have my MCH at 80
best you can grind out now and for the foreseeable future, eden gear is 450 and weekly capped and tomes of phantasmagoria coming on the 30th will be capped to 450/week
if you want to do extremes or eden savage you'll want full ronkan (with titania weapon, innocence accessories and some eden normal drops)
Whats the materia for sch
crit > det is a safe choice

Moved the question to Q&A. Seemed better there
#kupo-bot-spam
really?
one weapon token yeah, and you need 7 tokens + 1000 phantasmagoria when that comes out
no you can farm as many titania weapons as you want
even patches (5.0, 5.2, 5.4) always introduce a weekly capped 8man raid and tomestone (eden and phantasmagoria coming out on the 30th) and odd patches (5.1) uncap the 8man raid and add a 24man raid with one piece of loot per week (nier)
and savage loot is weekly locked until the next tier is about to come out
anyone know if anyone is tracking the world race?
Frosty does
He does but I haven't seen anyone yet from him which is why I ask
What do you mean by that?
He had a pretty up to date spreadsheet during Alpha that was used to track kill times

I'm aware of that was part of it last time just for this upcoming raid I haven't seen anything
Give teams time to submit that they are partaking? It's a week out so figured something would be up
I dunno who else is gonna do world first tracking aside from Frosty
It's simple
the less mentally stable your fc is the higher you'll place in world prog btw
!weekly
Hey that's me
wow
is that THE kiri of the admin of the balance discord of final fantasy xiv: shadowbringers
Eden resets today?
weekly reset already mhm
When is the day and time of reset?
And how do I know it?
I haven't done it yet I'm 424 ;_;
!weekly
tuesdays, 1h40 ago
okay
so i won loot on first eden floor
what do i do with one piece XD
i gained a bangle of early antiquity
1 bangle = 1 accesory
it's coming out next week
is it advisable to get chest / legs first before other gears?
replace lowest ilvl, and if you have full innocence accesories and ronkan left side then it's this
i see. was about to go for chest. looks like its better to get gloves head boots first. i'm almost done with inno accessories anyways. 1 ring to go.
thanks!!
some jobs might have a bit higher priority for some pieces over others but generally that's a pretty good rule of thumb overall yeah
not really
it's a meme to like
crit adlo the tank so they can eat 2 or 3
and then invuln
more effort than just eating 1 raw and invulning 2 then swapping
Anyone has any spaces for a healer in their static in Elemental (since theres no #recruitment-elemental)
Good lord. Finally got WHM to 80 after doing AST first. And the power difference is unreal
Is there a better place to use OT invuln? I can't think of one 
I personally don't see the reason to make 6 people take part when you can just living dead or hallowed the tethers lol
I don't know where else you'd use invuln unless your groups dps was so shit you were going to take three vuln stacks to the adds
You dont know how long the tanks invul gonna last they could use it early and take 1 extra hit then its panic town
Plus the adds phase requires a lot more survivability if one of the tanks dies or falls or get stacked by a confused dps
A safe split on 6 people rather than gambling and increasing your chances of wiping is worth it if you had your invul for something you CANT avoid like a loose 2 adds chasing after you or a stacks of vulnerability and add attack
man if pugs couldn't handle doing lightning tether or the tank did it improperly
that's a monumental fuck up
I feel like it requires way more to give out an order for 6 people
Plus war invul is 5 seconds so if you do it your way wars wouldnt be able to take more than 2 hits
Yeah i tried war with fae light
it works you gotta time it properly
Its a 50% 50%
there's no reason to do 6 person split but I guess
¯_(ツ)_/¯
not like the fight is hard so any strat works
I just like grabbing the tether and poping living dead
and so no matter what
i'm fine
Im fine keeping my holm for an almost wipe scenario
I would jsut leave instead :))
if you want to eat fae light
with holmgang
just eat the first hit with some cds
then holmgang 2 and 3
Guys, how can I earn the Cracked Stellaclusters other than being a tank or a healer when queuing for Levelling dungeons?
S rank hunts. Daily/weekly hunt cards. Or grind expert roulette dungeons for a chance at rank 8 drops
Alliance raid roulette needs DPS pretty often as well and it gives clusters. Check that one out intermittently
A rank hunts give them too as a 50% chance. You can join a hunt train that'll kill 20-36 of these in about an hour

DID YOU DIE IN E3?
your numbers can be low if you die to do your gap closer teleporting you off the edge

What materia is recommended for endgame dragoon?
!faq balance
Ty!
how hard is act to set up if I want to use it to evaluate myself?
Really depends if it works on the first install
pretty easy
here are a couple things to look out for btw, a lot of people miss this
- unblock the dll files you downloaded for ffxiv (right click file, properties, unblock checkbox, apply)
- ensure act is running as admin
- ensure act is allowed in your firewall
change settings>allow another app>find act (Advanced Combat Tracker.exe)>add
The main thing people fuck up on is not unblocking the RAR file
Don’t do that and it ain’t work son
yes for chestpiece
orchestion rolls probably drop in savage
it was like that in omegascape for example
lots of people wanted Kefka theme
the force your way orchestrion roll drops from e1 or e2
I have ONE question for you guys: If u would choose which class u mostly missing ( can be 1 or even more) in your party. What would it be?
If i get an AST, i want a WHM. I dont really care about the rest.
Will take good player over class
^
good players > class for sure
Say where can I find a dancer guide for level 80?
!faq MCHGuide
!faq RDMGuide
Oh I think this is what I'm looking for
Notably, it'd be preferable if the #kupo-bot-spam channel was used for bot commands, unless they're specifically used to address a question or something like that
So idk if this has been asked yet or not but since people are getting classes to 80, fellow healer mains, what are your feelings on AST, SCH and WHM
Love SCH WHM but AST feels its lost what made it feel unique with its tarot cards
So my thoughts on them are correct
I live the idea of divination but having to remember which card goes to which dps type aswell as what seal it is in the midst of mechanics is a little complicated imo
Am I just dumb or am I not the only one having that issue
its not just that. that comes with practice
its that its RNG whether you get seal-screwed and completly miss the raid buffs
if you cannot manage to get divination within the first 10 seconds of a fight, your divination will probably never line up again
I've rolled through 3 redraws before going between spire and spear each time and it was very annoying
It was more annoying than trying to get a balance to royal road because atleast then you could settle for an arrow or spear
on the other hand, your heals are also not very strong so you have to juggle subpar healing and annoying cards
Celestial Intersection is practically pointless right
lots of poeple are glad fishing for balance is gone but the system that replaced it isnt alot better :c
Its just a worse aspected benefic on a 30s cd or am I misunderstanding it
And then the new Opposition is really only worthwhile in Noct since the shields stack and the potency on the regen is bad
CO nerfed really badly
I dont even understand why they changed it
Theres been times when theres interrupt mechanics and my party ignores it, Dohn Mheg, and I've gone to celestial opposition to stop it but low and behold healers have no form of CC anymore
only WHM
WHM whistles with holy
Yeah but its literally a aspected benefic but with worse potency and just gives the opposite of the stance
Im still super angryt that they removed Largesse but gave us Repose
its a neat gimmick, its not really good but its fine i guess
Sleep is pointless
I think that WHM dps capabilities are overstated and SCH is overlooked
your largesse is now your neutral sect

Its pointless unless you aggro something and dont feel like killing it
SCH still offers healing like its nobodies business
SCH dps isnt terrible
its pretty cool in Trusts but not anywhere else
However Glare has 300 potency, Broil 3 has 280 while AST Male 4 has 240
Its makes no sense whatso ever
Malefic also has a weave window in it
ahh thats because AST has to play with cards
But AST has low potencies yeah
without malefic, card playing will be literal cancer
Yeah but when Im attacking something as a SCH I c hunk stuff where when I attack as an AST it feels like I'm stabbing a tiger with a toothpick
at least they could do dmg 
Minor arcana cards being placed on the Draw ability drives me up a wall
I know
That didnt feel great but it was still doable
Like every time I use minor arcana I forget that it gets placed in the draw icon not the minor arcana one like before
whats the meld priority for dark knight 450 gear
!faq balance
check there
How much does piety affect mp regen and are there any diminishing returns I should be aware of?
!action goring blade
#kupo-bot-spam
balance people probably know more substat math than here @jolly sluice
!action flight or fight
Please use #kupo-bot-spam
so I got a friend in another discord keep asking me whats the point of using goring blade if you can get more damage focusing on atonement. I tried to show them the potency under FoF and also throwing your FoF out of alignment by adding 3GCD to your rortation
anyone else have someone to help me out to tell him? (asked on the balance and no word back yet)
Goring blade without DH/CH under FoF should be ~1856.25 potency for combo + full dot tick
3 Atonement = 2062.5 + 1325.5 for RA combo
RA + 3 Ato = 3375 x2 = 6750 in FoF window
RA + 3 Ato = 3375 + 2 GB combo = 7087.5 Pot
if im not wrong obv
Tell him to read his maths because Going blade is hella efficient
Goring blade is so good 
bit late on responing back but he understand after giving the potencies with and without it
Hey guys, any idea what materias my friend shoud use for his monk ?
@short raven
Okay ty !
role quests are available for every job?
or once you got it with one job you cant get it with another job of the same role?
like if i took them as a dragoon i cant take them as a monk
correct
there's 4 types
tank, healer, physical dps, caster dps
so if you do the phys dps role quests on mnk
you can't do them on the other melee or physical ranged
im proud of you
thamks
when is the next patch notes
Next Tuesday with patch 5.05
So nice static mate gave me 100 pots and 30 food for savage \o/
Congratulations!
why do most parties in PF have [Duty Complete] in orange but then i see some parties that have it in grey?
are they just typing it at the start to fool people into thinking it's a farm party?
maybe the grey party was blacklisted by you?
iirc its because of the loot tag
basically, duty complete on its own is grey. duty completion is light blue, loot is orange/yellow
ah okay, so its not someone just typing it lmao
yeah, the coloration is purely based on the "goal" chosen for the run
Whats the best Food for DRG?? 🤔
i'm using oysters
Could any1 show me the settings you need to use for activating SGSSAA in FFXIV? I'm rly struggling with getting it right
sorry cant help 😦
Are Gliderskin maps soloable?
gotcha, ty
are lvl 70 8 man maps synced?
Canal and aquapolis is still synced
But only the portal, you can solo open area trashes
@restive pulsar drgs want Oysters in case the answer wasnt clear
Anyone have an idea of what stats to meld for on DRK? Just picked up gear that's actually worth melding but have 0 clue
does anyone have gear and meld priorities for WHM and AST? first time doing healers and not sure what stats I wanna focus on
Crit det/dh piety up to flavor
Piety is similar to skill speed, in that you want to get it to a comfy amount and then work on all the other shit
I been seeing a lot of SCHs with low mp
probably people forgetting that even a high pie build is useless in combat relative to mp regen use (lucid)
finally rDPS rankings up
I'm really struggling right now with "A Requiem For Heroes"
I'm on a 390 Summoner and I absolutely cannot kill the three swords in time - I'm looking for any reccommendations or advice towards what i could be doing wrong or what i should be doing.
i390 and cant beat msq instance?
!faq smnguide
u might refer to this cause no way you wont have dps needed when fight is tuned to those who dont even know a rotation
Is there a guid like this for WHM?
No
WHM rotation is pretty much 1 button
But there’s healing guides
!faq healerguide
Pretty long read tho
How do BLM have rDPS on fflogs?
because it subtracts the dps they got from others from the pdps
it's always gonna be lower than pdps cause they don't contribute anything, so there's nothing to add in the rdps column
best meld for ninja? crit of direct hit?
Crit>DH seems to be consensus
Yes, when you can't put more crit into something, you put DH
You can always undo melds, but the +60 materia can only be added to i420+ gear
dumb question possibly
Shoot
if i dont win the piece i want in eden can i pass on the rest and try again in another run for the same boss?
yes
okies
You need love for story
not that i know of
personally not a fan though
but apparently it's not final anyways and both tabs are gonna get fuzed and displayed at once
I'm casual so why is everyone hating it?
i haven't really seen any public discussions about it, only in a few raid group discords i'm in
but basically rdps is relying on other people to utilize your raid buffs optimally, and pdps is relying on yourself to utilize other peoples' raid buffs optimally
sooo it's probably preferable to only have to rely on your own skill, not other peoples' for your parses
it doesn;t really make a difference in an optimized scenario but for things like ex with PF etc
i got an orange rdps and purple pdps on dancer earlier today cause i partnered a good blm
there's a bit of weird wiggle room for suboptimal play for rdps gains over pdps gains, but that's also a thing for pdps so it's whatever
and stuff like yeah, having certain jobs that take more advantage of buffs for rdps over more synergetic comps. But really the main things I've seen about it is a bit of concerns over the implementation and whatnot
Now I'm really curious to see how this goes next week!
I still think 3 was the easiest
But I'm sure that can all change lol
There's less tomfoolery you can get up to for rdps vs pdps but what I don't like is that rdps rankings don't reward you for keeping your damaging stuff aligned with other people's raidbuffs
If the rankings don't reward me for pooling mana for raidbuffs as a drk then it just comes down to uptime, killtime, and crit rng
Then again it's nice not having 100 dnc padders above me no matter how well I do ¯_(ツ)_/¯
The solution I would have liked to see would be to separate single target buffs into their own category, like what they did with radiant shield, although that was for a different reason.
It solves the issue of single target padding, while still incentivizing you to properly exploit raid buffs.
That would have been nice, or just partners vs singles club leaderboards
I suspect that Kihra is hesitant to single out DNC, and wants to implement a general solution that happens to solve the DNC situation.
@inland valve No trolling please.
Minstraling Wanderer at Crystarium?
Well, think again
or maybe not nero everytime but it was the machine next to hm
yeah it was just the machine
they're gonna list the coordinates in patch notes anyways
clearly i would like to log out where it is
but it seems noone has any idea of where it may be
mustn't know what an educated guess is
if I had to guess I'd say at the camp
like, it yeeted you out if you logged in
alexander was in mor dhona, omega was in rhalgr's reach, eden could be eulmore but who knows
but there is the open world entrance where they are gathered too
What if Eden Savage unlocked via Chai wife
but this is just a guess 
That is probably already a thing
Anyway, id bet on Minstrel in Crystarium or Eden control room itself
and probably a fanfic of her and alph 
Where Ryne goes 'Hey WoL Eden calculated even more fun fights, wonna check it out?'
There's not nearly enough dirt. WoL, summon Titan again. This time with more dirt.
They gave us that Omega savage speaking device thingamajig, with Biggs' message on it
i need some endgame materia advice
im gnb
what materia should i use?
never cared for materia till now tbh
Comfy SkS > DH > Det > Crit > Tnc
Once you hit the comfy SkS, just go full DH really.
What is Comfy SkS?
-1320 for 2.40 GCD - Base No Mercy windows
-1421 for 2.39 GCD - "I want to stay comfy"
-1523 for 2.38 GCD - "My ping is kinda bad"
Every 0.01 GCD difference adds 0.25 seconds of breathing room between No Mercy windows. If desyncing becomes an issue, delay your GCD slightly or opt for a slower GCD.```
i dont get a thing
pick a GCD you like
in that case 1421 is comfy
meld until you get 1421 SkillSpeed
then go Full Direct Hit
if direct hit is capped on a gear
go Determination
If Determination and Direct Hit are both capped, Go Critical Hits
Titty EX is currently the only i450 weapon
Titania until Tuesday
After that it dunno
Savage is probably gonna BiS, but if you're asking that you're likely not gonna prog week 1

mfw
someone complaining on reddit about how dps/healers pull before them in a dungeon
and saying how hard it is to adjust
i replied saying that you only need to press 1 button to take back aggro
everyone immediately assumes i'm saying the dps/healer are in the right
I actively refuse to adjust to that
If I'm tanking and I decide that this is the end of the pull, GG, go ahead and die alone
You better bring that shit into the path of the AoE skills cuz lol
just adjust and move on
like i have a huge problem with people who don't even bother to adjust
just to prove a point
<- the pettiest dude you know
I'm usually a big pull guy, but if I stop, I'm done moving lol
like even if they shouldn't, if it's a one time thing then whatever
if it's happening constantly then ask them to stop/kick
yeah, like I can understand the "you pull you tank" mentality a bit, and I'd be frustrated in that situation, but I'm not gonna make the other people suffer for it
yeah
it's easy enough to just grab them, ask them to not do it again, and then continue on
and if they do then you can address it
has the new crafted gear been datamined or no one really knows yet?
it's not in the game yet, it'll be datamined when 5.05 is downloadable
good to know, thanks
do i forfeit loot from Savage if I do Normal first? (not sure if that's a thing)
savage and normal are separate for loot
thanks!
Do you know where can I get information about eden savage? I come from WoW and we used to have a codex describing abilities or betatesting footage. There is something similar in FFXIV ?
nope
go in, pull, look, learn
there's gonna be guides out a couple hours/days after each boss is killed by more and more people
Is it eden savage tomorrow?
Okay! I'm going to loof for a daytime playing group tomorrow ! 😃
Capped tomes and treasure dungeon as well
get that gear data 
Gear data is always the first thing i post
Only because its ezpz
Ive shared the treasure dungeon already right?
ye
good, sometimes i forget ya know... old age apparently
Is there an equivalent of a "WoW Audit Spreadsheet" for FFXIV?
https://wowaudit.com/
Looking for something to track our static
Why do people keep wiping at titania
I only wany 2 totems for my axe
And yet i wiped 6 times today
Thats me only 2 totems always from my smn weapon
Feels like the Titania farms have gotten worse
Pugs seem to be having a spectacularly hard time with the puddles and tether recently
OMG
AAAAAAA
MY PF GOT FULL AND THE RF REFUSED TO LET US IN
THEN EVERYONE LEFT THINKING I DIDNT WANT TO GO
DO I NEED A STATIC FOR F*CKING EXTREMES?!

I want my axe already
Sounds like one of the requirements weren't met
Ye
Someone joined with a timer :>
And didnt tell anyone
So everyone left
PF is so toxic
Everyone leaves quickly now too. If someone leaves while waiting for party to fill, someone has to leave too
this is the natural state of PF
nicely done
Thank you!
I need help with BLM
whatcha need?
Opener
I saw sommeone on a stream earlier
do a 16k opener
it was like B3>F3>Triple Cast>F4>Swift>F4 repeat until 1200~ mp then Despair>Manafont>F4>Despair
Then restart with B3>B4>T3>F3>F4 etc
I tried it but I amm not getting 16k
Or even close to that
Can anyone tell me what the potion in the BLM opener is?
Tincture of Intelligence
Neat




just shows whoever did run into it only lvled via HoH/PotD




need to become a god of RDM's
everyone has 10,000 MP
