like I can do a 1v2 and not lose all my recups for like 45s on sam

silent wedge
#

drg backflip is best disengage, learning every corner on the maps to make the most of it

broken marten
#

to be fair, if I can lock down a WHM/Scholar and my team can 4v4 the other team, i feel that it's worth it, I wouldnt chase a tank tho

candid bane
broken marten
#

but in the initial fights? I think denying long-rangers can be beneficial

candid bane
#

what made me upset during Silver match was when RNG DPSes did absolutely nothing to jump into crystals

#

during overtime

broken marten
#

yeah, the can just dip in for a little bit

candid bane
#

they just kept Q E sidestep

broken marten
#

Even MCH can do some scattergun shenanigans on the point

sudden crest
#

silver players are braindead tbh

#

or silver queues are I should say

broken marten
#

Its trueeeee

#

Im braindead

#

but at least I stay on the point and die

#

that's why sometimes I just... go a bit crazy lol

#

#

Anyone remember the lower thresholds for Series exp??

#

I can't remember the exact numbers

candid bane
#

god. why the hell are WAR players trying to solo against 5 ppl far away

tired tulip
#

Because they can stun all 5.

candid bane
tired tulip
#

Shrug. It’s your only choice during overtime. I was memeing, ‘cause it’s still dumb they can mass stun like that.

#

I guess they got cocky on the power, dunno.

echo burrow
#

They can last a stupid amount of time against 5 people

#

Only a real strat for overtime shenanigans though

sudden crest
#

this shit needs to be a bannable offense

#

its not showing all of them spamming it as well

candid bane
#

at that point, that's trolling

sudden crest
#

literally we need a pvp report system

#

dude spammed nice job in his first lot after dying to a samurai lb

#

my brother in christ you hit the samurai

#

whoever said gold queues were better then silver was fucking lying

#

i think my one big gripe with this pvp is the camera

#

it's incredibly annoying to run behind an obstacle and the camera zooms in 40 yalms to give a beautiful view of the back of your head

sudden crest
#

move it up

sullen mist
#

just... silhouette me

sudden crest
#

just move your camera up with ctrl + arrow keys

#

I cannot stand ranked anymore because like

#

just had a match in gold against 4 plats 1 gold, with 4 golds and a new person to ranked

#

the match making is so bad

honest trellis
#

Yea, I don't know why everyone puts WArrior up so high.

vocal hound
#

cause its good

honest trellis
#

I violently disagree.

vocal hound
#

thats fine, community mostly agree that its good

deft oriole
#

cause it's good

#

but it does actually require some brain

glossy cape
#

Yeah, big ol' skill issue there

deft oriole
#

if you got no tactical mind you will just be focused down as war

#

play better

Frontline keeps lagging for me. CC is fine though.

somehow netted 14 kills doing that

Frontlines gonna make me tear my hair out

#

Every time my sides bout to win the game decides to spawn every node on the opposite side of the map and full turn the game around like its a pity part the other team sucked

#

Or they bum rush are base last second

vast crag
#

yeah, that's how it works lol

wicked crypt
#

Creeping suspicion I just encountered an intentional throw lol. Had a dragoon and a healer on my team last time that did absolutely amazeballs (Dragoon did 1.2m damage and healer had something like 900k heals) and the very next match the dragoon died once, said 'good match' and then stayed at spawn lol. Didn't even clock 70k damage that round. Sync queue among friends?

Im trying out pvp for the first time, I'm a dark knight any advice?

stark grove
#

Stay on point, use guard and recuperate, don't die

pseudo lagoon
#

right, ill give that a shot, cause ive never tried mmo pvp before so i was a little nervous.

eternal spoke
#

probably should remember to go wolf dens pier 1st to set up your hotbar

#

if you havent do so yet

pseudo lagoon
#

ohh yeah first time i went in my hotbar was blank

#

so that was weird

wicked crypt
#

And don't be afraid to break away and use your Elixir. Those things are underrated. Pop recuperate until you run out of mana and then try to find an opening for your elixir.

pseudo lagoon
#

ok ill keep that in mind

oooh how i WISH i could just que up with me friends and be able to communicate and have competent people around me

I play WHM in pvp and I managed to get to bronze 1 and was just about to get to silver but got booted back all the way to bronze 3 OTL.

Is 70-90k damage roughly good for a WHM performance? I try to have everything on CD at all times but I'm never sure if I'm doing it right orz

eternal spoke
#

uhm depends on the match length but 70-90k is how do i say this

#

on the low side

sinful tundra
#

That’s low

#

U should be doing more than 200k

left roost
#

70 is typically when the match is over before it begins orz

sinful tundra
#

Oh then I mean u don’t have control over that

sinful tundra
left roost
#

I'm trying but I'm not quite sure where I am going wrong. I normally start with seraph when teammates are nearby to proc protect, use aqua on myself, pick a person, polymorph, lilies if around buncha other people, and then glare unless healing is required

#

(tho I am bad with reading the chart at the end so my #s could be off a tad)

eternal spoke
#

maybe try to search on youtube with like 'crystalline conflict whm' theres a couple video with whm pov ranging from gold to diamond.

15 mil prize pool huh

No, 25m

#

Now here’s a problem

#

CC matches end so quickly

#

So will it be like best 2 out of 3

#

Best 3 out of 5

patent gazelle
#

Bo5 should be the way

astral meteor
#

o/ we will be adjusting it to the amount of teams

#

we don't know what the traction will be like at the moment, but its handled in swiss formatting for groups then bo3 for finals

fading timber
#

Not primal tho

wary orchid
#

How should I be combo’ing with monk?

bright wharf
#

For CC whats better as a RDM

#

White shift or black shift

#

Emphasization?

echo burrow
#

Silence can’t be purified, but bind locks someone in place so it’s purely situational in which one is better.

versed lily
#

i always used white pretty much, unless someone is running away and ur cc is coming up

silk rune
#

Every bard I ran into had me silenced, Purify removed it no problem

#

It's even in the list ot ailments it can remove

echo burrow
#

Oh damn, my bad. I’ve read it couldn’t KEKW

silk rune
#

I can understand the confusion tho, silence isn't as easy to react to like a stun or a sleep, since you're not being held in place

#

Just running around wondering why your skills aren't going off lolol

wary orchid
#

How does the Pressure Point effect work with monk in pvp?

#

It’s kinda… a weird description?

spiral brook
#

If the target gets knocked back by Enlightenment, your next GCD, including your LB, hits them for 8k more potency

weary inlet
#

Frontlines are so much fun. Its so much fun winning the entire match but then losing in the end because SE decided 3 teams are a fun experience to have and both of the teams just focus you and ignore eachother

silk rune
#

Were you leading, by chance?

#

If you're leading, you have become public enemy #1

weary inlet
#

We weren't, flames was head, but the other alliance decided to focus us anyway

#

AKA giving them the free win

silk rune
#

F

subtle hornet
#

Just sit back and enjoy new summoner in frontlines

silk rune
#

Yeah that happens a lot more than you'd think

subtle hornet
#

Summoning bahamut on unsuspecting people sitting on a node, and wiping all of them off at once, is so satisfying blobaww

silk rune
#

Don't forget about the SCH pandemic

weary inlet
#

I just play BRD because people refuse to, but in large teams its so damn good

subtle hornet
#

Oh sch is OP too

#

I've seen good scholars topping the dps chart

#

Having multiple boosted bios on you is death of a thousand cuts pensivewobble

silk rune
#

No truer words have been spoken

#

Ever seen a 25k tick?

weary inlet
#

Aaaaand instantly getting double foccussed again in this frontline

#

Pain So much fun

silk rune
#

Shit hurts yo

weary inlet
#

Just remove the 3 team aspect already, its dogshit

subtle hornet
#

I couldn't heal through 2 bio ticks

#

Dumped all my recuperate, and still died to bio ticks

silk rune
subtle hornet
#

"Best" part of frontlines?

#

Having a 0 kill, bottom of the chart dps trying to do callouts

#

And they were extreme sus callouts

weary inlet
#

Rival wings was pretty fun

subtle hornet
#

Like asking people to dogpile people's base in shatter lassneutral

weary inlet
#

It just was poorly balanced, yeah

silk rune
#

Wait

subtle hornet
#

insisting that we dogpile the base in shatter

silk rune
#

Rushing base?

#

Wtf

subtle hornet
#

Yes...

silk rune
#

You can't do that

subtle hornet
#

That God people ignored him...

#

Asking us to rush the base of the winning team

#

Slow them down he says doggokek

silk rune
#

I mean, I can understand the node and the match is very close to call

#

But early on? Nah playa

subtle hornet
#

Oh rushing base all the time

#

If no shatter nodes up? Time to rush base and feed...

neat plaza
#

I never liked FL for the sole reason that every game I attempted to play was more or less two teams fighting, while the third takes everything\

silk rune
#

Tf

weary inlet
#

Frontlines are fun gamemodes, but it suffers so much from having 3 parties

silk rune
subtle hornet
#

Or people who don't know the game doing callouts lassneutral

#

Or the most common one, getting stuck with a team that can't do kills

silk rune
#

They're trying, I'll give them BotD for trying

subtle hornet
#

Is it too much to ask for a bahamut buddy tericri

silk rune
#

Why summon Bahamut when you can be your own Bahamut

#

Sky Shatter OP

subtle hornet
#

How big is the range for sky shatter anyway

#

Bahamut is freaking huge

silk rune
#

You mean distance ot Area of Effect

#

I know Bahamut can reach 100y lol

subtle hornet
#

Area of effect lol

#

I swear mega flare is the size of earthly star

silk rune
#

Sky Shatter is 10y

#

With extra damage being dealt to anyone within 5y

subtle hornet
#

Although I think the regulars recognise a bahamut coming

#

You can see them running away asap when he comes out pikalul

8 games in a row lost because I get the f****** people who don't know what the f****** they're doing Meanwhile enemy team is 10 at a 10 99 trillion hours in this game god tier PVP Jesus Christ Dalai Lama's

silk rune
#

So yeah PVP is experiencing a Revival right now so there's going to be a lot of people who really don't know what they're doing

But if you do that's all the more reason for you to lead them to victory

low rover
#

like when you spam retreat and gather macro and still watch on as the whole team charges into full 5 man team with only 2 people alive at one moment?
Or when you spam the Attack crystal Macro only to see 2 of your team member hunting a wild rabit 1 going for a trip to Narnia and the other semingly figuring out how to move his character?
Or are we talking about Frontline where you ask people to either stop focusing 3rd place Alliance only for them to double down? Nah i know it must be when you advice the team to not walk into the Sandwich only for them bringing the salad and dressing along

silk rune
#

sounds like you need to take a break homie

low rover
#

Yeah getting stuck in Bronze makes you mald hard kinda frustratimg getting close to a rank up only to fall back to zero star b3 meanwhile you see people in silver where you ask yourself how the f they even figured out how to start the game

amber escarp
#

lets not pretend its hard to rank up sir

low rover
#

In all honesty its pretty much luck based if you only have a few hours per day to play

spiral brook
#

I only tryharded enough to bronze for the reward and now I swap between Casual/Ranked depending on the quality of matches

what repward

when you hit crystal games its the same as bronze and unranked games
set expectations low COPIUM

#

I cant eve reach gold. forever stuck in Silver 3, as I gain one star every 10 games

fringe tiger
#

Well #3 now, because I quit pvp ranking

#

fuck that grind

sage topaz
#

ranking does not matter in this game mode.

#

the mode is set to get you the highest tier with no demotion system, kinda sucks

weary inlet
#

What did you expect from FF

#

It coddles its players

#

can people STOP HOLDING LBS

#

Holy crap

#

Diamond players that cant press their LB buttons

fringe tiger
#

"But what if I need it later?"

weary inlet
#

I ESPECIALLY dont get it for WHM

subtle hornet
#

@silk rune I see you pikalul

silk rune

😄

weary inlet
#

ResidentSleeper Are the bug abusing WHMs getting banned yet?

#

Watching a DRK never die because a WHM is abusing it is very boring

weary inlet
#

So many bug abusing piece of crap WHMs WTF

fringe tiger
#

Inorite?

tranquil turtle
#

do you even get anythint at ranks

#

I was just gonna hit silver just so I can say Im silver

neat plaza
#

The key to enjoying pvp is to just not play ranked

#

I've played probably 150 casual matches and have yet to see a single cheat or exploit performed

silent wedge
#

do you get every rewards tier below your highest one at the end of the season or do you just get the one you're on?

eternal spoke
#

afaik the one you at

#

so if you really like gold frame but youre at plat now

#

youre shit out of luck

||SE : GOTTEM ||

round bison
#

I made it! Playing whm only!

weary inlet
#

Playing phys ranged in these matches without a frontline is true suffering

weary inlet
#

Man PvP is so much fun when it boils down to "the enemies had a WHM that was abusing cure 2"

#

Or well, a WHM in general OME

#

Hopefully the first balance patch wont take ages to come out

Hello everyone! Hope you guys are all enjoying the new Crystalline Conflict PvP!
I managed to get to the Crystal Rank and I hope to share with you guys some of the tips and mindsets when I was playing.
I made a video of me playing as a Warrior in a ranked match and explained in the voiceover what a tank should do in a battle.

livid knot
#

i love pvp it so much fun

tulip oracle
#

btw I didn’t check it out myself with the last live letters, but I heard that the battle pass rewards will stay??? abd new one with new rewards will be added??? I compleatly forgot

vast crag
#

yeah

#

afaik it will stay till 6.3?

echo burrow
#

Yea, that’s the idea for now. I don’t think YoshiP has decided what happens after 6.3 yet. Zaku

neat plaza
#

I'm pretty sure its going away by 6.3

#

6.3 will have two battle passes - the one for 6.2 and the brand new 6.3

#

And then 6.4 will remove the 6.2 battle pass, then repeat

echo burrow
#

The old battle pass items just go into the Crystal shop. But yeah, I double checked his phrasing in the live letter. He definitely saying that the 6.1 battle pass items will get phased out in 6.3. A shame really, but 8 months is fairly generous.

tulip oracle
#

how fast can you get like at 25 since that armor is quite nice

dense cave
#

I'm just playing few hours and been at 12 now. So would be quite fast to finish all of it.

that’s good :3 was thinking it will take a long time XD

Besides pvp rank, is there any benefit for going rank rather than casual?

Only rank rewards

Ohhh, thank you.

sinful tundra
#

whats the cure 2 bug

#

is there even a bug

eternal spoke
#

something infinite charge

#

by cancelling cast or something

#

dont play whm so not sure how it works

patent gazelle
#

Its not that impactful as you think it is

sterile ibex
#

yeah can't almost everything out dps cure 2 spam because of cast time monkahmm

eternal spoke
#

i dont know mang

#

12k cure 2 GOTTEM

autumn sleet
#

Its a 12k heal vs 5k dmg from glare. If people can push buttons its better have people alive as they build lb

#

Besides 5k glare isnt going to scare someone diving you

sterile ibex
#

if people can push buttons

autumn sleet
#

12k heal will keep you alive

eternal spoke
#

i mean if its really infinite cast then youll need like 3 diver to kill the guy weirdfish

autumn sleet
#

Its 2 people not 3

eternal spoke
#

depends on who the 2 is. imagine pld + gnb GOTTEM you probably gonna need like 2 hours to kill the whm

#

granted the 2 jobs doesnt exist almost on cc GOTTEM

autumn sleet
#

You dont dive as a tank to kill

weary inlet
#

The current battle pass stuff will likely get added in retrospectively with the trophy crystal currency thing that we get now

#

I'm surprised so few bards are around in PvP

autumn sleet
#

Its because bards are team reliant

silk rune
#

Too many people are ragging on it because of its dependency on the team ye

autumn sleet
#

And when its a gamble as to your team comp and skill

patent gazelle
#

Its better than mch on higher ranks

fickle kayak
#

Question - I'm not sure if this has been asked before or if it's been addressed, but can PvP Teams be cross-world? And for that matter, are they even worth it since you can only solo queue for Crystaline Conflict?

silk rune
#

Teams have absolutely zero use right now, they've been a dead feature for a few years now

Devs might be trying to rework it for CC tho, since it got a small update for it this patch

fickle kayak
#

Hmm ... I wonder then how it will look later down the line
Can you queue up to other PvP modes with a team?

echo burrow
#

Only Frontlines

#

Though you can do a custom match of CC if you have two parties of 5

low rover
#

And even then only 4 member teams (for Frontline)

Oh we have a pvp channel

Why was I in rants

what would yalls focus priority be anyway? im noticing people ignore it when i mark teh WHM or DRG 1

i focus whm mch nin war mainly

silk rune

Will really help me play ranged classes better

that macro could be helpful for GNB

#

junctioning a specific person more easily

if only GNB was good

granite orbit
#

unbeleieveable
i just got home from work and the past three matches ive lost not a single person on myh team got a kill
I underestimated the number of no life hardcore players are doing CC right now

amber escarp

ENEMY TEAM WIN = NO LIFERS
MY TEAM WIN = IM AMAZING

granite orbit
#

i just can't understand how we got 0 kills for three matches straight

sinful bone
#

welcome to coinflip of pvp

#

sometimes you get bad team mates and you cant do anything about it

granite orbit
#

0 kills is a coin flip?

amber escarp
#

some times its u whos shit

granite orbit
#

makes sense

rocky shale
#

Ngl, I don’t think stalling the outnumbered enemy team would make the difference by self mitigating and guarding until your teammates respawn 💀

scarlet tulip
#

so are we ever gonna be able to party queue

#

i just wanna game with my friend sad

versed lily
#

thats real impressive tbh, since a hand full of the dps limit breaks are a guarenteed kill

rocky shale
#

SAM’s LB 💀

snow mulch
#

do you guys know how to move the ally and enemy health bars in CC?

echo burrow
#

Go to the Wolves Den and then edit your HUD

Also, this goddamn sound glitch in pvp is really grating

i guess i shouldnt expect people to be able to put all their cds on 12345 and then just press 12345 lb lol

glossy cape

I certainly didn't expect that from any of the teammates I got

versed lily
#

u cant* pvp on a f2p account can you, i kind of wana start again on one of the worse specs and see how silver/gold is atm

sterile ibex
#

just make a new chr

versed lily
#

facepalm im dumb

sterile ibex
versed lily
#

i feel like a long time ago i heard someone say you need to pay to play other chars but i assume that was either old info or they meant f2p accounts can make lots of alts

#

so i always just dismiss making new chars

glossy cape
#

Nah

sterile ibex
#

you can make 8 chrs with the entry sub so 02shrug

versed lily
#

ye think ill do that then, make a lalafell to dish out pure dancer suffering

#

or monk and only LB white mages

sterile ibex
#

well you have to play the game to 30 to unlock pvp so maybe mnk KEKW

weary inlet
rocky shale
#

I ran into some healers in bronze rank doesn’t do much damage dealt but more healing

#

And most death counts

#

💀

amber escarp
#

Just randomly decided to try pvp for the firs ttime. lost one game then won every single game to silver 2 in a row as a WHM. its so strong xD

#

i love it

rocky shale
#

Seraph Strike though

amber escarp
#

is there some sort of a pvp tier list?
buddy invite me to try out pvp yesterday, im not a pvp person in general mind you
so i went in with my sage, didnt had heals as a healer for whatever reason.. yes i noticed kardia and pneuma
and i died approx after doing 2 casts that felt like a wet noodle
also, tabtargeting in pvp.. what the actual fuck..

eternal spoke
#

in CC probably something like
WTF IS THIS GAY SHIT SO OP tier : WHM
Actually good : WAR, SAM, NIN, RDM, DRG
then theres the rest. Not saying the others are impossible to climb with its just that the above are 'meta' now. Atleast I think so but im also a scrub so GWcmeisterPeepoShrug

Frontline its probably pick summoner. afk till lb. drop mega flare. 20 kills ez. OMEGAROLL

amber escarp
#

rdm is busted

#

hit diamond last night meme

versed lily
#

ye ur lists about right huung, id put nin above all the lower ones but not on same tier as the actually good

does anyone know if you can you demote out of your rank (like plat-gold) or is it like a check point?

Pld was fun in frontline

#

You know what would be even funnier ? People noticing the crystal in PVP match's

#

I honestly gave up on climbing ROFL, reached diamond and stopped, just getting the gloria mount and I'll stop, maybe in the future when job gets adjustments and purify actually works

warm hornet
#

can you report someone from abusing the WHM cure?

#

there was this guy spamming cure 2 -.-

scarlet tulip
#

what kind of changes can we expect for jobs in upcoming patches

#

i know the community has a lot of ideas but i’m curious what you guys think the team is more likely to do

warm hornet
#

well GNB for starters can actually tank without needing a tank on enemy team

#

that would help him

#

MNK can be an DPS instead of being a tank 😂

scarlet tulip
#

i want GNB to be good

#

lol

#

i dont mind them not having any CC if they have the damage/sustain to make up for it

warm hornet
#

Yeah the fact your tanking skill depends if you have a tank on the other team is stupid asf

#

xD

echo burrow
#

Sage’s LB should be centered on the Sage and move with the Sage. That’d be dope, and make it dangerous

autumn sleet
#

if youre new to role based team pvp youre going to suck for a while untill you learn the basics of team fighting

i dont know if there are any ff14 guides on just team fighting for cc out yet but a league of legends guide on teamfights will still cover most of what you need to know

sullen mist
#

yeah healers can spot heal but vast majority of the healing done in in pvp is self-healing

#

either mp restoring, potioning, or grabbing health from the ground

at least once whm cure bug gets fixed

What does this do anyways?

Posting this from the PvP discord:

I need to get some duels in with really good MNK/SAM on Midgardsormr.

If you want to duel a strong RDM please hit me up. I want to really determine if MNK/SAM can beat RDM 1v1

If you are any other class please hit me up if you think you can beat RDM as well

Love it when DPS decide to 1v1 in a team game

its probably more of the meta problem now. the meta is like rdm sam nin OMEGAROLL 3 dive dps then 1 dive tank

holy moly is it possible to blacklist a player during a pvp game? some of these people bind the macros to their scroll wheel or something

I mean the macros are meant to grab your attention and not tunnel vision

dont force dash to get your riposte

#

if you are vs less than 3 dps you can play more aggro

#

I'm about to hit crystal on rdm OMEGALUL class is nuts tbh

#

use your -dmg aoe (idk the names) when vs rushdown team on the initial engage

#

vs a less threatening team you can use the +dmg and dive forward with your dashes

#

stay near your tanks dont isolate yourself

RDM does insane burst and AoE dmg

@thick ravine yes and im plat when i see it happen im really suprised like

#

You really saw 5 people and decided it was a good idea to go alone?

thick ravine

its pretty much a lost game at that point since you're always 4 players

Cause what kinda outcome are they hoping for

thick ravine

OH he's on enemy team now 😄

gg

earnest sundial
#

Stalling or throwing

vocal hound
#

Throwing it is

#

I can undetstand stalling for OT

#

When 2 min left or even 1

#

Its throwing

#

Also acceptable when enemy is on 99.9%

earnest sundial
#

Or is crystal is about to be capped

#

Yeh

pure dew
#

The only guy i wanna see running into 1v5 is a Samurai with his LB ready

weary inlet
#

Hoooooly there are so many useless sacks of shit WAR Players

#

unga me chase 1 person, me lb them good yes

vocal hound
#

Cause people think its brainded when it requires understanding

weary inlet
#

I also dont really get why WHM gets 51000 HP unlike the other healers

#

It feels so dogshit to just get 1 useless player and to autolose to it

#

Im amazed people in diamond + STILL somehow manage to never fucking LB in an entire match

sullen mist
#

I also noticed you didn't say anything about actually using the Lb

pure dew
#

Then there are games like these where no amount of carrying you do can win it

sullen mist
#

Oh see

#

You used your LB

#

My teammate was more like the 2nd-4th entries on your list

pure dew
sullen mist
#

Run in, dive instantly, stun, lose 3/4 of his health, shield

weary inlet
#

Sounds like the average WAR Player

sullen mist
#

Dive instantly on the first target, mind you

pure dew
#

i pop guard before engage then purify and chiten

weary inlet
#

And average MNK / SAM

sullen mist
#

Usually their warrior or drk

#

See. I'm the war

#

I'm in front trying to bait skills and find a good time to gapclose on their squishies

#

And zoom goes the samurai right onto their warrior

weary inlet
#

I'm usually just the annoying piece of shit bard in the back trying to silence you right out of your guard

sullen mist
#

Well you are right

#

Bards are annoying

#

The class too

#

But mostly the players

weary inlet
#

The fucking backstep is what seals it for me. You dive onto them and they just hop away

sullen mist
#

See when you're a war player games go one of two ways

pure dew
#

what is annoying about silence is that most of the time you dont know you are silenced😂

sullen mist
#

You dive, the enemy team collapses on you, your team mops up their isolated and back you up when your shield and 2nd rend are up

pure dew
#

at least you know you are stunned when you're character aint moving

weary inlet
#

But I do gachiHYPERS Prepare to get Apex arrowed

sullen mist
#

Or you dive, distract their entire backline, and their two tanks somehow get a kill 2v4 and have your entire team on the run

weary inlet
#

I love it when I press heal

#

but the server tick says no and a NIN get the execute

#

berry fun

#

Berry fun when it consumes the mana and makes the SFX too

#

Tank main have known this pain forever

#

People these days will insist the superbolide invul gap exists

When it doesn't and they just died to server tick

And it goes on cd anyways

not a broken game at all

does SAM LB distribute its damage depending on number of targets, or does ir do 24k to each target struck?

!pvpaction Zantetsuken

surreal tokenBOT

**Zantetsuken** : SAM (1 None) (10.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Swiftly charges forward, dealing damage to target and all enemies nearby it with a potency of 24,000.
If target is afflicted with Kuzushi, deals damage equal to 100% of their maximum HP.
Ignores the effects of Guard when dealing damage.
The additional effect of Kuzushi cannot be applied to players riding a machina and non-player combatants.
Can only be executed when the limit gauge is full.
Cannot be executed while bound.

24k each

You already lost to queue at that point

fringe tiger

#

WAR is pretty fucking strong and stupid, but I'll be damned if PLD + 2 healers doesn't make my jimmies rustle

weary inlet
#

Same as getting a non WHM healer into a WHM

#

Berry fun

lone jay
#

Ty for the playlist! happyhildy

weary inlet
#

Im REALLY hoping the first balancing will happen with ult drop

#

RDM, WHM and WAR absolutely need nerfs

fringe tiger
#

no

#

don't nerf RDM

#

just buff everyone else

#

RDM literally serves it's purpose of being a solo ganker

#

If you don't have team support, it kills you

#

If you literally just have 1 other person peel for you by CC or focus damage

#

the RDM is going to lose that exchange

#

Also RDM isn't as unbeatable in 1v1 as everyone thinks

#

I found a MNK that can consistently put up a challenge

weary inlet
#

I don't really care if it serves its purpose or not, its doing too much lets be real here

fringe tiger
#

It's too much because that's all it has

#

is just damage

#

It's aoe CC is nice sure

#

but people dont' often line up

#

and the aoe-width isn't that big

#

Outside of their sole melee combo there's very little they can do to help the team

#

MNK can do insane damage/survive as well

#

they just take a lot more effort to pull off

#

compared to RDM

weary inlet
#

Which would warrant changes, and if only 2-3 jobs are out of line, especially since its in pvp, just nerf them. Dont buff everything else because powercreep in pvp will end up real bad

#

I dont want no Warlord of Draenor dogshit pvp fest again

fringe tiger
#

I don't think SQE's intention is to go for homogenized pvp design

weary inlet
#

No Mists snoozefests because everyone has everything

fringe tiger
#

They want some classes to stick out

#

and require team coordination to deal with

#

Why else would they for example

#

give fucking SAM an aoe 1-shot that is easy to pull off

weary inlet
#

SHRUGGERS easier to play around than RDM IMHO

#

I can personally deal with SAM, you can't expect a random pepega group to always deal with a RDM

fringe tiger
#

There's going to be a tournament tomorrow

#

invite-only

#

I don't imagine RDM is going to be a god-tier pick in that

weary inlet
fringe tiger
#

due to how one-trick it is and how little support it brings to a team besides just damage

weary inlet
#

But since all we have is solo queue, and RDM lending itself to solo queue, don't ya think they should balance for that?

vocal hound
#

tourney is premade?

fringe tiger
vocal hound
#

cause balance is around soloq

fringe tiger
#

I think it's invite-only, making teams

fringe tiger
#

I also want to add that

#

RDM is a very high-risk low-burst class. It builds damage up quickly by multiple GCD hits and DOT ticks

weary inlet
#

I get not wanting to see what you play get nerfed, but when practically every match has those same 3 jobs, then yikes

fringe tiger
#

It has to stay in

#

while having little to protect itself

#

SAM have chiten, 50% damage reduction from all damage

#

as well as an extra CC immunity

#

RDM doesn't have that if they're using frazzle

#

RDM can charge someone with corps

#

debuff that ONE person to deal 20% less damage to the RDM for 7sec

#

that doesn't pan out well in a 5v5

#

when the entire team can change to you and dunk you

#

magic barrier at most reduces damage taken by 10%

#

but at least it applies to your whole team

#

also increases healing potency by 20% which is thicc

#

your 15000pot turns into 18000

weary inlet
fringe tiger
#

but frazzle is better

#

10% extra damage and 20% less healing

#

turns enemy 15000pot into 12000pot

#

RDM is literally built around "Kill them before they kill you"

#

If they do nerf it then idk what RDM will be useful for outside of it's AOE cc?

#

because it's already squishy as heck

#

51'000 hp lol

#

about 6k - 7k lower than other melee

vocal hound
#

nerf dmg buff hp

weary inlet
#

Still doesnt warrant the damage IMHO, not for the way the mode is set up. If there were pre-made queues it likely would need buffs

fringe tiger
#

I think it'd be nice to see them add a 5th combo maybe

#

verflare does 12000 damage

#

but make it do less damage

#

introduce scorch

#

that way the burst takes longer

#

and gives more time for RDM to be doing damage

#

since outside of melee combo all they can do is sit there and hardcast a 5k+5k cast

weary inlet
#

Also, I swear they must have miss-typed something on WHM. Their HP pool has to be 41k instead of 51k with how broken they are, right?

fringe tiger
#

Idr WHM health

#

I just know RDM

pearl nebula
#

how come I still have teammates jumping in 1 by 1

#

they didn't even reach checkpoint and they jump in 1 by 1

#

after the first team battle

fringe tiger
#

This shit happens in crystal too

pearl nebula
#

hell yeah

fringe tiger
#

So

#

It never goes away

pearl nebula
#

objective what ae those

fringe tiger
#

You jest, but like

#

This me at #2:

#

I spent very little time on objective as RDM

pearl nebula
#

time is time inside the crystal right

fringe tiger
#

Yes

pearl nebula
#

true you only need one person on it at a time

#

but you also don't want to be outnumbered

fringe tiger
#

Also I'm squishy

#

so me being on the crystal

#

is a great way to die

deft oriole
#

if you're on the offensive your tanks/melee should be pushing ahead into enemy territory

#

while ranged/caster can push crystal as backline

quasi oyster
#

^

deft oriole
#

there are often reasons for squishy to be on crystal

#

all depends on the situation

#

there are no super simple rules of thumb, it's a lot of situational awareness and following instinct

quasi oyster
#

It is objective based, but you still have to play around the objective as well, which includes going off crystal for team wipes. As said, it's situational

#

Same idea you'll see in overwatch games.

fringe tiger
#

Yeah

#

Always be flexible

#

Sometimes I will take a death/waste my guard by going on crystal

#

if it means holding out long enough for my team to accomplish something

#

Though it's rare because I'm usually the one doing the big damage as RDM

quasi oyster
#

When the 5% MCH proc happens

#

There's a lot of times when I just get instagibbed an I'm like, oh. SAM/MCH ult

That feeling when you wish the various PvP communities would get off their high horses and just allow wintrading since the GMs clearly don't care

Not looking to get to top 100, I just want to get to crystal...

That title should have been a PvE one

No seriously why am I getting put against war WHM teams fucking six times in a row

wicked wolf
#

There's more than 100 people in Crystal on my datacenter, i wouldn't be taking top 100 from anyone just from entering it XD

#

and the top person has like a 3000 point lead and didn't play at all yesterday

clever plover
wicked wolf
#

The devs don't care though

#

the top person on both aether and primal wintraded and used cheat addons

#

and they haven't been banned

#

Hell, Happy has footage of the one on Aether wintrading and cheating, the GMs haven't bothered to get back to him even though there is FOOTAGE

clever plover
#

Yes, so because some people cheat and haven’t been punished yet, you also should cheat

#

Makes complete sense

warm sedge

honestly i don't really care about getting into the leaderboards because i know i'm not good enough

#

i just want to hit crystal and call it good

wicked wolf
clever plover
#

Ah

#

So now playing legitimately means people are stupid

wicked wolf
#

Yes

Because clearly THE PEOPLE WHO MANAGE THE SYSTEM DON'T CARE SO WHY SHOULD WE?

if the people who were clearly cheating were being banned then yes, we shouldn't cheat

I'm not wintrading

I thought you were trying to tell us that people who don’t cheat are idiots

"if you can't beat them, join them"

that idiom has been a thing for centuries for a reason

i can't

just git gud?

like theres like 20 million crystal player

u gonna tell me they all cheat?

wicked wolf

because Cooool Cat is actively using duration altering addons

coool cat is not the reason you can't get to crystal

clever plover

What does that have to do with you getting to Crystal

eternal spoke
#

like you said you only want crystal. and im gonna bet most of the crystal player didnt cheat

wicked wolf

but they're an example of SOMEONE WHO IS CHEATING AND THE DEVS DON'T CARE TO BAN

its ok to be silver

no it's not

it's literally hell

#

I'm at 45 wins, I should be out of silver

the more you play , the more you will succeed !

not proportionally

topaz cedar

it is absolutely ok to finish season 1 in silver!

you can only go up!

No, it's not

I wonder how many wins it will take me to just get into silver.

wicked wolf

took me like 36 >_>

I think I’m at 12 or so and still stuck at the very bottom of bronze

wicked wolf

there were some people that got to platinum with 31 wins >_>

topaz cedar

just keep at the climb!

clever plover
#

Everyone goes at their own pace

#

It took me forever to get to Crystal

#

but I also didn’t cheat

wicked wolf
#

Then fix ranked so you don't lose stars at all

#

I'M NOT CHEATING

#

I'm saying they need to get off their high horses if the devs don't care

clever plover
#

Oh my bad. You’re just advocating for more people to cheat

#

I understand now

eternal spoke
#

im legit starting to think u meme-ing here

wicked wolf
#

Don't care

#

again, the title should have been a PvE reward

clever plover
#

Yes absolutely

#

They should've released a PvP update

#

And made all the rewards PvE content

wicked wolf
#

We're literally called "Crystal Bearer" in a voice line in the MSQ

eternal spoke
#

let me ask you a question lets say we just swap the names of the title where crystal is below bronze

#

would you still advocate for cheating/win trading

wicked wolf
#

nope

eternal spoke
#

peepoLaugh sure

wicked wolf
#

because the "clearly should have been PvE reward" wouldn't have been a complete RNG pain in the ass to get

#

since you can't lose stars in unranked

eternal spoke
#

my dood youll have to look at yourself if youre hardstuck at your rank. its not always 'my team suck/ its rng i get bad team mates'

wicked wolf
#

it IS my team sucks

#

because they refuse to engage, they refuse to coordinate

#

they refuse to WORK AS GOD DAMN TEAM

#

6 losses in a row, they refuse to touch the crystal

you gotta start blaming yourself brother

look at ways you can improve your gameplay as you climb !

Damn, maybe they should start handing out the Ultimate titles and weapons. It’s clearly my party holding me back from clearing all the ultimates happythonk

But anyways, I haven’t tried RDM yet. Sounds like fun if it can just duel people to death KEKW

subtle hornet
#

Wouldn't use rdm in frontlines

wicked wolf
#

People pay for carries and piloting

subtle hornet

Having to go melee to burst is just asking to be focused down by the death ball

Ultimate titles have lost all value because of the people that just pay for them

fun fact, at least 10.6% of the player base cleared UCOB, at least 12.3% cleared TEA, and at least 14.3% cleared UWU

#

Fun fact uwu and ucob are just mechanical brainchecks at this point

#

And all 3 are clearable via pf

#

So they're easier to attain too

#

Which leads to naturally biased data

#

Otherwise, source™️?

spiral brook
#

At most*

wicked wolf
#

eh, whatever

#

it's late. people can't be bothered to use words for what they actually mean anyways so why should I bother

I posted my playlist yesterday

#

I fought against a strong monk

#

And it shows that they can make the difference

crude heron
#

Man that was rough to read

fringe tiger
crude heron
#

Not what you posted Aellesa

#

How has your climb been

fringe tiger
#

Oh

#

I climbed to #2 then quit playing CC

#

I've dropped to #8 since people are overtaking me

#

Including the win-trader

#

who is now tied for #1 lol

crude heron
#

Oh ya that person

#

They'll never get banned by the way

fringe tiger
#

Yeah I know

#

Someone from the community team @ SE contacted me

#

idk if they'll do anything though

crude heron
#

There was a speed hacking BLM that did it for years. Never got banned

fringe tiger
#

lmao

#

Good grief

#

It's pretty sad how much SQE cares. Seems they only get involved in player affairs if it involves verbal assault

#

I've heard stories of women being stalked in this game

#

and SQE never did anything

crude heron
#

Sounds about right

patent gazelle
#

Wish there was a way to see stata

#

Stats

fringe tiger
#

2 tournaments going on today

#

Curiosu to see the comps that'll be used

#

and if RDM is as strong as in coordinated play as pubs

terse tangle
#

64 victories in Ranked CC. Still Silver 3

#

I want to die

wicked wolf
fringe tiger
#

The league staff just didn't care

#

but the fans sure as hell do

wicked wolf
#

Yes, because the refs there CARE

fringe tiger
#

No

#

The refs didn't care

#

which is why cheating has gone on so long in MLB

#

It's only recently that they started caring

#

but that's speculative

wicked wolf
#

They do, for other reasons

fringe tiger
wicked wolf
#

They can be physically hunted down at the stadium

patent gazelle
#

Theres also match fixing and stuff

#

And organizations do care about it

wicked wolf
#

I just wish the various discords would get off their high horses and just allow wintrading... i want to get out of silver hell...

#

Theres people in Platinum will less wins than me....

fringe tiger
#

🙄

#

I don't think it's a high horses thing

wicked wolf
#

It is

fringe tiger
#

I don't like win-trading because it's hurting other people's games

wicked wolf
#

It doesn’t

fringe tiger
#

Yes it does...? What

#

If you get the win-trader in your game

wicked wolf
#

Unless language settings do absolutely nothing in CC

fringe tiger
#

you're playing 4v5

#

that team of 4

#

is losing

#

because the 5th is throwing

#

Also it takes away the legitimate effort other players make, when they are pushing for higher ranks

wicked wolf
#

Say 10 people in JP servers set their language for duties to French, and they’re the only ones doing so, wouldn’t they see no one else?

fringe tiger
#

Who knows

wicked wolf
#

And “takes away legitimate effort” is a joke

fringe tiger
#

Not really

patent gazelle
#

You get out of silver hell if you play well anyways

wicked wolf
#

Most of the people in high ranks either cheat or got lucky

fringe tiger
#

I worked my ass off to get through silver, gold, plat, diamond, and into crystal and hit #2

#

Why shouldn't you be doing the same? lol

patent gazelle
#

Got lucky

fringe tiger
patent gazelle
#

U definitely got lucky

#

Me too uwu

wicked wolf
#

And how often have you seen people respawn faster than 10 seconds, or use CDs faster than they should be allowed?

#

Because we do have people using hacks

fringe tiger
#

I don't think I did when I played

#

I think the hacks came around

#

once I quit lol

#

Guess I got lucky and only played against legit players

glossy cape
#

yeah like
I'm consistently top 2 of my team
SleepyMew but we still get bitchslapped cause the enemy team decided to get good rng and got 5 crystal players on their way to the top and i got 3 unranked monkeys and a 50/50 between a pepega edgelord and an actually good player

wicked wolf
#

Nope, since day one

#

They were in Feast as well, number one on primal used them, and they’ve openly said so, and the GMs haven’t banned them.

#

Number one on aether wintraded to first place and MrHappy has footage of them, and they aren’t banned

fringe tiger
#

Yeah

#

they've been reported

#

like crazy

#

SQE really doesn't care

wicked wolf
#

So why should we care?

fringe tiger
#

but that doesn't mean we shouldn,t the players

patent gazelle
#

I mean yeah 02Shrug but there are people who got to top anyways too

fringe tiger
#

Because we're players and we can hold a different standard then developers who are a corporation and just want our money

patent gazelle
#

Legit

fringe tiger
#

Tournaments can have their own rules

wicked wolf
#

Then stop playing ranked

fringe tiger
#

Because they're in it for fun and integrity, the challenge

#

I did stop playing ranked lol

#

I stopped 5 days ago

wicked wolf
#

No no

#

Forever

#

Never touch it again

fringe tiger
#

I probably will lol

#

This is the first time I touched ranked

#

I never bothered with feast or anything heavily into PvP

wicked wolf
#

Just go to casual. It’s the same rewards minus portrait junk that’s going to be removed

fringe tiger
#

This is probably the first, and last season, I will participate in

patent gazelle
#

Why not though

#

Its honestly more fun still just to play ranked than casuals

fringe tiger
wicked wolf
#

Because pvp is an unbalanced joke right now

fringe tiger
#

Also

#

there is a win-trader spamming right now

#

I'll get super tilted

patent gazelle
#

Depending on the server

fringe tiger
#

if I get them on my team

patent gazelle
#

Primal has it

wicked wolf
patent gazelle
#

But crystal seems like theres none

fringe tiger
#

Allegedly

wicked wolf
#

No no, Primal does

patent gazelle
#

Havent encountered wintraders so far

#

In my dc

fringe tiger
#

Isn't Crystal the ERP dc?

patent gazelle
#

Yes

fringe tiger
#

Very fucking sus

patent gazelle
#

No really i see some dcs and stuff
