Do you guys spend your tomestones of allegory on anything specific? ^^" i've been capped at 2k for a while I'm thinking I should be spending them... not sure what though
steady pebble
if you don't need gear, can just use allegory to buy crafting materials to sell
the ones that cost 20 allegory per are generally decent sellers with spirit extract being the most common since its needed for pots

DPS -> War/GNB/PLD/DRK?
Mitigation?
dusty dirge
interesting
verbal oak
some people complain that DRK and WAR feel too similar
since all the tanks need to have the same baseline stuff to do all the content equally
PLD doesnt even use cover
bc everyone just tank swaps instead
mortal stone
There is a “ranking” of tank damage but it’s such a minimal difference between the 4 that it really doesn’t matter

My cotank WAR consistently out damages me even though I’m pld. Most of it is player skill

In terms of DPS/Mitigation for tanks
For DPS -> GNB > PLD = WAR > DRK
For Mitigation -> PLD = WAR > DRK = GNB.
Dmg does depend on the fight for PLD and WAR. Some fights WAR outdamages PLD but iirc most fights PLD slightly outdamages WAR.
quick verge
DPS, GNB>>PLD=DRK>WAR
quick verge
- rdps sucks for tanks
- there isn't a sample of good players after 5.5
war gets a slight buff, but it's still worse than pld, and by proxy, drk
inland granite
I mean aDPS is the same.
WAR is not worse in terms of damage. They also have good alignment for fights like E11S which can help them even out damage PLD.
Good players still play the game. Sadly no Ultimate to keep others though. :c
quick verge
max dps on drk being 1k down from .4 to .5 isnt representative of the job’s full potential
in 11s
inland granite
That's fair. That's a good point.
That's a shame then. Judging by that even with the potency buffs DRK would still be above WAR.
If scaled from 5.4
inland granite
I'm interested in how they optimized. Probably gonna go see if those logs are still up. Might be able to steal some tech.
sinful brook
a lot of it just happens to be good alignment with minute burst and being able to dump damage into it
dark knight has BW and edge dumping that lend itself to having extra damage during things like trick/tech/div
all war has is maybe 1-2 inner chaos inside each trick window
and a couple cleaves
inland granite
That makes sense. Having a 60sec, 90sec and 120sec, does help hit within raid buffs.
stable basin
People really out there acting like WAR buffs are what made DRK suddenly do less aDPS than PLD
top e9s drk right now is just monke brain hit edge whenever he feels like it
this is what playing drk correctly looks like
subtle marsh
Why are they so different
inland granite
I'm on xivanalysis for Nirvana and I get what you mean.
One is hitting it within raid buffs
stable basin
Because the top guy doesn't know what he's doing
subtle marsh
I'm so confused. How come the top. E9s gets away with playing so badly?
stable basin
Because this
subtle marsh
My brain is smol. I see numbers but I. Don't understand what I'm looking for/at contextually.
stable basin
crit/dh rates
stable basin
For reference, DRK bis puts you around 27.5% crit rate and 14% DH rate
You should be a bit higher especially on edge because crit buffs
ofc he didn't really care about using edge in raidbuffs
But yeah the drks might not be sending their best right now
inland granite
That's wild. This explains quite a bit actually.
I feel so misinformed about this class.
stable basin
He has perfect killtime and perfect comp
And insane RNG
e10s is same deal, some guy with perfect comp/killtime and good rng pressing edge randomly
stable basin
:^)
Not even doing the proper buff alignment for that killtime
8:30 and they just use stuff on cd then hold the last set
subtle marsh
When doing reprog on a different class, is the priority still the same? Mechs> damage?
I feel a bit conflicted with this in that if I already know the fight, but am essentially just translating what I know onto a new class, wouldn't it make logical sense to try get comfortable in trying to dish out the damage?
Idk if I'm explaining this right.
But I'm reprogging on black mage, and I have an understanding of the basic fundamentals of the class. But in regards to how I use my tools to maintain uptime (and enochian) I'm at a bit of a loss. I understand how to resolve mechs in the savage tier I am reprogging already, it's just a matter of learning how to tie in consistency with output.
This came out a bit more convoluted than I intended.
subtle bone
Optimizing your damage and the mechs go hand in hand.. you got the mechs down so just need to plan your stuff (for blm just movement spells and leylines)
Those things have already been optimized too so you would study it like you would for your main job
I would say knowing the mechs is the biggest part
supple sail
Like...don't die?
subtle marsh
That makes sense. I understand where I need to drop leylines, but I guess I haven't progged 9 enough yet to where I can say x will be up at y mech.
So overall it's just a practice and consistency thing?
Idk dying is easy when you try new things
supple sail
And yeah adapting your new job to the mechs and maximising dps are basically the same endeavour
subtle marsh
Or when you get killed. :)
stable basin
I do a looot of alt job trapping in uwu and it usually boils down to the same process which might not actually be helpful
Which is: I know the mechanics but not my rotation
I do the "basic" rotation and see if things fit nicely or are close to fitting
subtle bone
Yea thats pretty much it
stable basin
Like on BLM if I do standard opener I notice I have a ton of mana left when plumes spawn, and I dump with flare
So I change to no B4 opener and that makes me waste less
subtle marsh
I cleared on astro first.
stable basin
If I don't have triplecast for a mechanic I'd like to have it on, I think about when I last used it and see if I can push things around and get better uptime without holding it too much
subtle marsh
So thankfully it's not terrible.
subtle bone
True
stable basin
Ideally you have a handle on when burst windows and such are happening, though that's less relevant with blm than pretty much anything else
subtle marsh
And that makes sense, cats.
I think I just struggle with being more open to the idea that I have more options available to me than I realize.
Like say for brambles, if be mid cast when they'd drop and it was either drop enochian or delay the cast. Both kind of suck as far as options go.
Didn't even think to weave using the thunder proc into swift >wherever I am in the rotation.
stable basin
Yeah I think of it, like, try to be cognizant if you're slipping into a local minima re: optimization
if that makes sense
subtle marsh
Yeah.
Its a bit rough because I'll have act on and see I'm basically capped out at 16-17k dps and I know that's terrible.
stable basin
you've also got a gear deficit ofc and blm is pretty deep even at the surface level
and you'll be more or less innately suited to various jobs
subtle marsh
How do you mean more innately suited?
stable basin
In my uwu adventures I'm noticing quite a big difference in how well I perform on different jobs
And a lot of them are jobs I don't have a history of really playing
I got pretty good numbers on my first clears as sam or nin, but I had to try multiple times to get out of grey on smn or mnk
you can argue that 70 nin is pretty easy, but like it's not that much easier than 70 mnk
subtle marsh
Ah I see. That makes sense.
With blm I feel kind of back and forth in how well I play it.
Sometimes it feels very comfy other times I'm struggling to do even basic mechs
stable basin
tfw everything lines up perfectly and you try to remember how that happened
subtle marsh
Yes. Exactly.
subtle bone
Watch vods to deal with specific mechs / movements that youre unsure of
And apply them slowly, pick up small things that could become good habits
Then itll become easier to adjust rotations and further optimize
subtle marsh
Just gotta find some. Decent vods.
subtle bone
Yea, i mean i do the same for my main all the time, vods/ fflogs replays (super good)

Hi idk where else to ask this, on E9S when you’re first assigned your clock positions, do those positions change in relation to the room if the boss is flipped after a phaser attack? Basically, do positions always correlate to the boss? I play healer and was with the other healer during a spread and got kicked, not sure if I did it wrong
stable basin
Well after the wide angle phaser attack the boss was pulled back to the middle but she was flipped from how she was at the start of the fight. I play a healer and I stayed on my original clock position in relation to the room, so unfortunately for her spread beam attack I ended up with the other healer and we both got one shot, I wasn’t able to ask if I did it wrong
subtle bone
Well after the wide angle phaser attack the boss was pulled back to the middle b...
i see, its assumed to do boss relative (north is where the boss is facing)

potent spire
could someone explain the shadow servant part of e10s?
lyric summit
it's the same thing the boss does where the shadow indicates the angle of the mechanic, except it's centered on players instead of the boss
sinful brook
the way that helped me process the mechanic best
was to rotate the camera, so that it was behind the shadow
and then i would go left or right based on the direction the boss was cleaving
lyric summit
i used to think about it like "right cleave -> face the boss and have the shadow 'arrow' point right"
sinful brook
yah thats the same idea just described another way

If multiple people mess up yes. Nowadays 1 or 2 is survivable with gear but you get damage downs

Can you do e8s knock back mirrors without knock back immunity?
Theoretically?
I was thinking about the question, that if there is any mechanic in the game currently that just CANNOT be cleared without using Knockback Immunity
sinful brook
yes you can do the mechanic correctly
you would first dodge the actual wave coming from shiva
then move in on the arena
and go closer to the mirror that goes off first
tank A at the front
and tehn swap for the other mirror
chrome cobalt
knockback immunity strat was figured out around 4th week
everyone else before that cleared it without knowing that
stable basin
if you use KB too early for shiva u go to the middle and get knocked around so u dont fall off and die

Even early on you'd still use kb immunity (mostly for casters/healers so you can stay cozy in mid) but it took a bit for people to start resolving it fully at the edge with everyone using kb immunity instead of running to mid to resolve it

stable basin
Hardest content to date are Ultimates, second is the current Savage tier
Ultimates you have to be level 70/80 and typically need a static (who also typically want to know you're capable, so usually want savage logs)
Savage tier is level 80 and requires completion of the normal raids, then unlocking savage and getting enough gear to meet min ilvl requirement
This can be cleared in pf or with a static

wheat marsh
I'm not discouraging joining the balance. But sometimes it's difficult to digest...
I think the issue with the balance is its all using savage and ultimates for reference, so until you've reached endgame content, just stick to the rotation guides and ignore the chat outside of specific questions you have
chrome cobalt
i agree at some points balance is lazy when it comes to answer specific stuff
like im not gonna read job guide just to figure out that its better to delay a 3 mins buff for 1 min at say E10S to align it with others buffs
and thats just an example
dull radish
I doubt that if you ask that, that people wouldn't give you an answer on it
if it's more generic stuff that's easily explained in the guide, like base rotation kind of things, etc then sure you might get linked towards the guide instead
but more specific things like that people are pretty willing to help more directly on haha
(and even for simple stuff, in a lot of channels people will still answer you and then link to the guide as well)
wheat marsh
since im bad, most of my questions are if i die and certain things wer just popped, whats my best course of action to get back on track. heaven forbid if you die after using tech step and before devilment and they desync XD

chrome cobalt
for that step 1 is try to get back to track is
let cds come back up
and redo the opener
and work from there
dull radish
mmm, kinda. It depends
especially when you're looking at raid buffs, sometimes even if you get screwed up from death, getting even misaligned uses can be more worthwhile than missing uses just to get back to proper alignment
wheat marsh
most of the time i'll just have used something and tunneled and missed a big attack, hence why i'll ask such specific scenarios
so it can be a minute or two before a proper opener/reopener
depending on class
and typically in non-high end you aren't getting half the raid buffs you usually would, or they arent aligned

practice makes perfect!

triplecast, atherical anipulation, leylines TP, etc
craggy hare
I guess when I messed around with BLM I didn't get too far with that stuff.

being good at movement and rotation lets BLM pump out some of the highest DPS in the game

verbal oak
ye, but at least when raiding in this game i can still play other games

You want to always have Jinpu up for Higan, it further boosts the damage of the DoT
verbal oak
standerd opener is getting shifu combo for speed into jinpu, then bana for dot and meikyo into midare
some people prefer to midare first
craggy hare
Bana makes more sense to me to get the dot going.
verbal oak
ye, but without jinpu you'd lose extra dot dps
jinpu is 10% at lvl 50 and like 13% at 72
same for shifu
serene lotus
Iaijutsu doesn't break the combo
So you go Haga>Shifu>Kasha>Haga>Jinpu>Higan
Then finish the combo with Gekko
craggy hare
That makes sense to me, that's more dps, thanks
verbal oak
dont forget kaiten for even more DPS at 52
craggy hare
So use that on bana?
verbal oak
can't really build it for first bana at 52 but at 62 you get more kenki
yep 50% dps buff on the next skill
including midare too
1200 pot attack
craggy hare
Not for the first Bana but the second most likely since it's more overall damage.
verbal oak
yep!
craggy hare
Or the midare if it's a shorter fight.
verbal oak
yeah pretty much
kiaten and midare just allow SAM to do crazy DPS
later on you even get to do a second midare that's also buffed
craggy hare
Looking at the skills, goyoten seems fairly niche in terms of use as well as a couple others since they cost kenki for little damage.
Like shinten and kyuten.
verbal oak
gyoten is your gap closer
so it's good for when the boss forces you to move away
shinten is your main kenki spender
since ikishoten just gives you 50 kenki every 2 mins
craggy hare
This class has a lot of flexibility it seems.
verbal oak
yep, sam has plenty of cool stuff to use and master
craggy hare
Jeez, it's already midnight.
verbal oak
this game is too much fun to talk about
craggy hare
It has a lot of depth that I miss in newer games.
verbal oak
learning, optimizing, playing, gearing, mastering, its just a blast
craggy hare
I used to spend hours optimizing stuff in eso and dragons dogma but now everything is super easy to learn after they simplify it.
verbal oak
the devs did their best to streamline while giving lots of depth to classes
and by god they've done it
AND balanced it
craggy hare
Balance is a rare sight nowadays.

Isnt it better to almost always start with midare opener to catch the raid buffs?
sinful brook
not necessarily, depends on the fight
its preference until you know when things like downtime where you can't target the boss are
its a consideration of "can i get an extra use of this somewhere before i can't touch them"
higanbana snapshotting buffs is equally as valuable as well
and its not like the midare won't catch buffs

no matter which opener you do your higan and both midares should be in buffs

Is Lost Slash good for anything?
quick verge
800 potency weaponskill, it’s pretty decent
especially on war/mch/drg, since they can force it to crit and triple its potency
a common strat people use is to stack lost focus before an encounter, and open with lost slash (+reassemble/IR/life surge) for huge damage, then swap lost focus for other useful actions
the best part is that it’s an ogcd weaponskill so it’s free potency during burst, and doesn’t delay your rotation when used

damage taken/deaths, and compares to other groups
this can be skewed through a job like drk/war invulning a tb with magic vuln compared to a pld/gnb invulning the same tb
it's a pretty worthless metric overall

For endgame, is there some customization of your stats or choose what type of bis you can pick for your job?
All classes have the same bis with the only variations usually being skill/spell speed to hit a certain tier, or level of piety for healers
The exception is Black Mage, which can either go Crit-based or Spell Speed-based and basically have opposite gear to each other
Otherwise no there's not really any customisation on what BIS is, because it's... Bis

is this the right place to talk about xivalexander?
i just found out about the existence of it and i'm wondering whether or not it's in the same vein as act
torn kindle
Never heard of it, what does it do?
drowsy agate
i have a limited understanding of it based on some brief research
basically it's a tool to force-allow double and even triple weaving despite ping
how it does this is apparently not illegal
dull radish
people have mixed opinions on it
drowsy agate
yeah but act is against tos too
sinful brook
Since it directly modifies game data
drowsy agate
so like how against tos is it
dull radish
it goes about things a bit differently than act
sinful brook
Act is more like a math monkey doing spreadsheeting for you
drowsy agate
my understanding is that it can allow things like double weaving pots
dull radish
at base I think most people probably wouldn't complain too much about it, it can be modified to be a bit more suspect
drowsy agate
yeah the notes on it made that clear, modifying it is absolutely cheating
sinful brook
Whereas this, while able to improve the qol of play for many people is touchy since you can go a lot farther than that
drowsy agate
but i was wondering whether or not these top .5% parsers are using it
cuz like, things like double weave displacement aren't possible for most of us
dull radish
at base it just simulates you having 30ms ping
torn kindle
Using it to do triple weaving without clipping is 100% against TOS
since it gives a direct advantage normal players can't ever achieve
dull radish
I think even fully modified you're probably not cleanly double weaving with pot or necessarily triple weaving super well (though I don't think that'd be much advantageous anyways) but I dunno
it's not something that's going to make the difference between the top 10 and the top 1 or anything, or whatever like that
at least, not in a way that's going to be undetectable and getting someone banned
drowsy agate
i'm more interested in the fact that it claims to remove the clunkiness that's build in to ff14
since it looks like it makes double weaving smoother
dull radish
mmm it's going to affect animation lock and caster tax, if you're on high ping it'll definitely feel a bit better. Short of that it's not going to be drastic
drowsy agate
i'm on pretty regular ping
tbh
if it's simulating 30ms, i'm only like 50ms
47 ish
dull radish
yeah I wouldn't especially bother with it then
torn kindle
I play around 80 ping and rarely have any hiccups for most jobs that I play.
Even MCH's Hypercharge burst windows barely have any clipping for me
drowsy agate
i notice it most often during RDM melee combo
sometimes there's a very slight clip if i weave between
torn kindle
yeah fleche and contre just seem to have a slightly higher animation lock
drowsy agate
i mitigated it by spamming the ogcd really hard like half a second early
torn kindle
They seem so fucking inconsistent
sometimes I can weave both together with no problem, and other times it clips
torn kindle
still inlet
They have standard locks. Displacement is 1.1 and it has forced movement. Pots are also 1.1, but as consumables they don't queue
The shorter rdm melee combo steps will be prone to clipping if you have some latency, because it's a 1.5s action and if your lock's putting you closer to 0.7s or higher for oGCDs, the more odds of clipping, because of the general game variance and networking jitter
since 2 * 0.7 is already 1.4, it doesn't take much for it to spike and suddenly oops 0.1s or greater and now you've clipped
My line on it is the memory modification is a line that shouldn't be crossed. But it also only addresses one part of the issue that comes with higher ping.
Obviously modifying it further to sim 0 ms, or even negative ms, is when things start to get much more pronounced as cheating
xivplugin with act doesn't modify memory, it only reads net data and chat memory
Both are technically against the ToS, but xivplugin is regarded as an "acceptable" grey area. Memory modification is not
That's not me saying per players, that's how SE have outlined it
Ravahn's code repo is known and SE could go after him and Aditu to try and nix xivplugin with act, but they know it's so deeply a part of general play now
stable basin
My view on Alexander is that it replicates how the game is actually meant to be played - the devs live in Japan and keep making stupid things like Blood Weapon and Overheat that clearly show they think the experience of living in a small country with good infrastructure is universal
The idea that your playstyle should depend on your real-world geographical location is absolutely asinine and I welcome the effort to level the playing field

hey guys im having a question for players that experienced the release of aesthetes gear!
Im currently leveling all my crafters because I prefer the economic aspect in the game. With endwalker coming soon, im wondering if overmelding my aethetes gear is necessary to obtain the new crafting set probably coming along with the patch. Was it necessary to have BiS pre-aesthetes to craft aesthetes in the first place? because I believe it would cost me alot to get there. im new to ff and idk how it works :D
daring dome
hey guys im having a question for players that experienced the release of aesthe...
endwalker is gonna have filler crafter sets starting from 81 which you would be able to craft without having a fully melded set. a fully melded set is only necessary if you want everything HQ with as little steps as possible and have day 1 combat crafted gear ready to sell, you can in most cases achieve similar results by working out your own rotation for lower melds yourself.
tldr rn having a fully melded set isnt worth it
tawny python
alright thank you so much man
just for reference, how much would the average cost of full melded DoH gear be?
daring dome
well you can make crafter yellow scrips/crafter white scrips to make it for free, but its also the longer route and takes like literal ages. if you want to buy it all, youre probably looking at 2 mil+ (may be higher and lower depending on your server) if you want to get it in time for combat crafted gear or selling early crafted crafting gear
protip you can make also make a lot of money by selling those materia 
when new crafting gear drops the highest rank materia can go for like 50k each
the 2nd highest rank can also go up to 20k but people need way more of it because they have a lower% chance of melding it so they buy it in bulk
great ways of making cash

regarding optimization for e10s
so the idea behind addle and reprisal not working on the dogs during the dog carousel
is that the aoe is coming from the dog entities and not the boss
so i've believed since then that addle and reprisal don't work since those are debuffs on the boss itself
and not on the dogs that emit the raidwide
someone just mentioned it's possible to reprisal that raidwide if you time it right
wondering if there's merit to that
this is for uptime dogs, of course
i was thinking that it could be plausible that the non-targetable dog entities are still affected by reprisal since it's an AoE debuff?
or is it just bullshit and reprisal doesn't work period?

reprisal won’t work on jumpy dogs period
nor the orbs
the debuffs inflicted on shadowkeeper aren’t mirrored onto the other actors, so they’re functionally useless for that mechanic

Oh, that's what you meant. Generally, the raids (in each tier) are designed such that 1<2<3<4 in difficulty.
So I assume they want to make sure you can clear the easier raids before you clear the harder raid.
Even after you've cleared it once, a lot of folks struggle with reclears.
So while I'm not a fan of the system, it makes sense.

can the kb after giants be antikb'd?
quick verge
no
sinful brook
You can use a gap closer to stop its movement a bit though
finite plank
i still have no clue how to use shukuchi for that
sinful brook
I think its rougher with shukuchi and elusive since they have no target
Use a macro /s
quick verge
input shukuchi right before kb, it resolves so that your movement starts after the kb starts moving you
finite plank
problem with that
i do it too early
i go to the middle and "oh shit, im gonna fall off and die"
unless i do it manually which i should be doing
i didn't get the timing to clicking it yet
quick verge
either is fine as long as you get a good sense for when to press the button
the closer you are to the edge, the more meme it gets though

hope my corps is up by then
or enough that i can save it for a few sec
sinful brook
i typically wouldn't hold corp-a-corp if it means you lose a use. as you move to the safe side for the kb just channel your cast. if it goes off you have the duration of the dual cast to walk to safe spot
quick verge
just use displacement to stop the kb
sinful brook
i see how could work
but you have to do it on the side you're being pushed from?
idk seems like if you did it on hte other side you might sling off
dull radish
the basic premise of using a disengage skill to kb cancel, is you interrupt the kb that you'd get normally and just functionally replace it with the displacement movement instead. So technically it wouldn't matter what side you're on, as long as you could use displacement safely from your current position
of course, it's not really something you'd really look to be doing, but that's how it would work

but do it and clutch rez someone for the clear, it'd be badass
sinful brook
If you need to rez too.much after that mechanic it might be rough in pf to clear

are parses still logged now that we have echo
chrome cobalt
gotta silence echo to parse there will be no more echo logs the moment that option got added
at least from fflogs discord talk
frank quiver
How do you silence echo?
finite plank
df settings
frank quiver
My static says we can still parse with echo. How does that work?
sinful brook
you silence the echo and then enter the duty
since parsing with echo invalidates the log
frank quiver
As in, you can’t upload that log at all and/or it’s not included in your profile?
frank quiver
Oh, gotcha. Wouldn’t work for recruitment resumes. Thanks!

It was me this morning i was the one who killed 3 pulls on e9s i've never felt so embarrased ;_;

Why aren't my savage logs ranking???
With the release of patch 5.57, Eden's Promise (Savage) has had its weekly loot restriction unlocked in addition to having 10% echo added to all encounters. This means that any log that you attempt to upload on FFLogs will not be ranked. The maintainer of FFLogs does not currently plan to add a partition to allow rankings for runs done with echo.
Logs can still be ranked, however, if you open your Duty Finder settings and enable the Silence Echo option. Uploaded logs with no echo will properly rank.
