#

To be honest, any mechanic that forces you to stop attacking

#

Or sheath your weapon

marsh osprey
rough kestrel
#

I'm gonna say is just a bad mechanic

gaunt star
#

agreed

rough kestrel
#

I hate it in SoS

wet crown
#

Me : Don't attack during fire because of pyretic
WAR : HAHA FELL CLEAVE GO BRRR

rough kestrel
#

It's just shit.

calm nexus
#

Heavensward fates are unnerfed, still dropping a memory per post maintenance

carmine plover
#

thats gonna be super useful if i bother getting extra relics

#

trying to get my main relic through bozja but i don't want to repeat that process for alt classes

vagrant sinew
#

wdym astra

#

did devs mention smth about that?

late willow
#

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice

carmine plover
#

people were expecting either a bozja drop buff or a heavensward fate nerf and some people were claiming heavensward was nerfed with no source

wet crown
#

it feels like atmas drop more frequently now

eager prairie
#

Aight its Castrum time

#

so it looks like that 1hour timer is confirmed (provided you've anough rank 10+ in the instance)

marsh osprey
#

i revived somebody in cutscene

#

pepega

swift kraken
#

me waiting for people to drop dead like flies so i can get the achievement

#

350 rezzes to go

wary pond
#

meh did castrum

#

we wiped at last 1%

swift kraken
#

2600 mana poggers

wary pond
#

of last boss enrage

marsh osprey
#

F

#

also

#

do top party

#

if you can

#

you avoid all the shitty add mechanics

unreal wadi
#

so when does castrum drop

#

and if i missed one

#

when is the next one?

late willow
#

REEEEEEE

subtle pasture
#

I've gotten 4 tortured memories before 1 bitter :)

late willow
#

Also guess who didn't clear Castrum

#

This guy

marsh osprey
#

anyone with gear knowledge

#

bozja coat has... amazing stats

#

not sure if the extra crit is worth

late willow
#

Its not

#

Not by a mile

#

The haste makes up for it though

swift kraken
#

not worth

#

you lose det and mind

#

and vit for safety

unreal wadi
#

:V

#

Does anyone know how long it takes for the castrum CE to spawn in?

#

I know if its a fresh instance

gaunt star
#

about an hour ive heard

unreal wadi
#

its 60 minutes

gaunt star
#

so 3 per instance

unreal wadi
#

YES I KNOW THAT

swift kraken
#

think its on a 1 hour timer

unreal wadi
#

but what about the 2nd one?

gaunt star
#

or 2 i guess

#

60 mins after the first

swift kraken
#

its always on a 1 hr timer

#

apparently

unreal wadi
#

You sure?

#

I've been seen conflicting reports of

gaunt star
#

pretty sure

unreal wadi
#

60

#

90

gaunt star
#

like 95% positive

unreal wadi
#

or in between

eager prairie
#

its on on hou rtimer

#

happened for me

#

when we missed the first one

swift kraken
#

same

gaunt star
#

same here

swift kraken
#

it might be

eager prairie
#

we just waited an hour and it spawned again

swift kraken
#

60m feom the end of castrum

unreal wadi
#

Ok... thanks.

eager prairie
#

you gottta have enough rank 10+ tho in the instance

swift kraken
#

not from the start of it

late willow
#

Anyone got a link to the Eureka DIscord?

unreal wadi
#

Well I do

late willow
#

Eureka Explorers

unreal wadi
#

I'm fkin

#

lvl 12

gaunt star
unreal wadi
#

what makes you think

late willow
#

tyty

unreal wadi
#

that im not lvl 10 +

late willow
#

Oh I'm literally already in it lol

swift kraken
#

he was just saying you need enough rank 10s in the instance

unreal wadi
late willow
#

It won't even spawn unless there is enough

swift kraken
#

^

unreal wadi
#

too many low levelled players

#

:V

marsh osprey
gaunt star
#

how many does it consider enough?

unreal wadi
#

^^^

swift kraken
#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

polar star
#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

gaunt star
#

25 I’m pretty sure

#

cause every castrum instance i joined had less than 15 ppl

swift kraken
#

being there =/= joining castrum

eager prairie
#

mine has 40 atm

swift kraken
#

lots of people are weewees and refuse to join

gaunt star
#

oh

#

ic my bad

swift kraken
#

castrums fun too

#

i solohealed it

#

dps were eating dirt

#

remember to stock up on arises

polar star
#

Why exactly do tanks get arise ponder

#

Dps loss

swift kraken
#

because sometimes you have to raise

marsh osprey
#

man

#

nin glam

#

is SHIT

#

for bozja

swift kraken
#

if you parse bozja just smash that head against the wall

marsh osprey
swift kraken
#

ive had act off and i feel great

polar star
#

b-but my 1 dps could cost us the clear sadcarby

marsh osprey
#

also the actions fuck with the dps meter

swift kraken
#

not getting hit by aoes will do the trick

marsh osprey
#

dps literally get that potential 2700 potency

#

and tanks too

#

healers dont

polar star
#

don't forget
16 focus stacks reassembled lost slash

swift kraken
#

i get a 96% damage increase

unreal wadi
#

who the fuck

#

parses in bozja

swift kraken
unreal wadi
swift kraken
#

ima parse my

#

1v1

#

for that 99

unreal wadi
swift kraken
polar star
#

I can't even use act

#

lol

swift kraken
#

im gonna beat gabriel if i ever get one

#

i think

#

i got all the actions necessary

polar star
#

What if FFlogs actually starts taking gabe parses

gloomy tide
#

Where does this new relic quest thing count under in your journal?

marsh osprey
#

wdym

#

how the quest is called?

#

oh

#

now i get it

#

good question

gloomy tide
#

k found it

#

story side quest > resistance quest

polar star
rough kestrel
#

Eh

#

Add a 0 and maybe

gentle lynx
#

Castrum pops

#

17/48 players

#

....why??

#

Shouldn't everyone be clamoring to do it??

marsh osprey
#

now this is big dps

static sedge
#

how do you get the new armour sets?

marsh osprey
#

by clearing the 48 man raid

static sedge
#

ah

marsh osprey
#

time to become a white mage tank

#

theres provoke too

faint dagger
#

wait hold up someone said reassemble lost slash

#

do lost actions actually interact with job abilities?

marsh osprey
#

its a spell

#

like any other

#

u can boost it

#

etc

faint dagger
#

i just didn't expect them to interact with job abilities

#

n e a t

autumn heron
#

@gentle lynx weekday and the content just came out so most people arent even rank 10 yet. Wait till the weekend and it'll pop regularly

wary pond
#

had stupid run

#

where shitter early pulled

#

and enraged 1st boss

#

cause unlimited adds

gaunt star
#

wait have people actually been wiping to the red chocobo engagement?

late willow
#

People are bad

#

Unlimited adds spawn when you kill the boss while the other one is still alive

devout musk
#

If you fail the lyon fight at the end in castrum

#

It causes a wipev

#

?

late willow
#

Pretty sure yeah

wary pond
#

must drop lyon to 49%

#

so only best dps party fight him

devout musk
#

Kept wiping to that shit

#

cuz the party we assigned kept fking it up

eager prairie
#

And the timer ran out on us, but we got into the final phase

#

where we made the mulletman quit the arena

wary pond
#

the timer is mostly the problem

marsh osprey
#

we killed him pretty quickly

#

i had 80% more dps potion on whm

gaunt star
#

castrum spawned while everyone is in another CE meltdown

#

yup

#

always happens now

#

kinda thought the hotfix would have fixed that

#

but guess not

eager prairie
#

aww yis

#

i got my jet mount

#

i consider that a reward after wiping at Castrum lol

gaunt star
#

congrats uwucarby

open verge
#

How long does it take for casteum to go up?

lone mural
#

why does everyone likes castrum all of a sudden?

wary pond
#

once every hour

late willow
#

Because its needed for the armour

faint dagger
#

you do realise people aren't referring to castrum meridianum right

lone mural
#

nope

late willow
#

They're talking about the new Castrum in Bozja

merry flicker
#

@faint dagger Reassembled is cool and all, but WAR I think has the best interaction with Lost Slash. Pop an Essence of the Irregular and go to town:
[23:01]  Critical direct hit! The Bozjan monitor takes 387112 damage.

autumn heron
#

Theres multiple castrums in the game tbf

merry flicker
#

It's oGCD so you just slot it in to your Inner Release window (same cooldown too) if you're not doing the Focus memes.

open verge
#

How does the boost stacking work?

merry flicker
#

Spam it 16 times and the next weapon skill you use is boosted.

gaunt star
#

tf

summer orbit
#

tbh calling dungeons "castrum" was a terrible idea considering how fights are named "castrum something"

gaunt star
#

ive legit had 5 castrums spawn

#

while in a CE

summer orbit
#

should've nicknamed them whatever word comes AFTER castrum

merry flicker
#

So specifically on WAR if you want the max hit - Boost 16x > Auto attack your poor target > Inner Release > Lost Slash.

eager prairie
#

I've never done BA, but really enjoyed Castrum in my single runthrough of it haha

swift kraken
#

theres only 2 castrums anyone cares about

summer orbit
#

msq roulette castrum, bozja castrum, and tsukiyomi castrum is kinda relevent too i guess

swift kraken
#

the last one everyone just calls tsukuyomi

summer orbit
#

then there's that really easy ARR trial and one or two dungeons probably

gaunt star
#

cape westwind

late willow
#

You complete forgot about the 69 dungeon

swift kraken
#

no one calls it castrum fluminis

late willow
#

Which is also a Castrum

swift kraken
#

yeah but thats not relevant either

gaunt star
#

^

autumn heron
#

You only have to do the bozja castrum once for the quest to get the glam right?

swift kraken
#

what was it anyway

gaunt star
#

well you need tokens

swift kraken
#

castrum abania?

gaunt star
#

albania

late willow
#

You have to clear it

swift kraken
#

abania is correct

gaunt star
#

yes

swift kraken
#

you need to famr castrum to get all the pieces

autumn heron
#

Yea tokens are for the upgraded version with the stats aint it

swift kraken
#

no

gaunt star
#

no

swift kraken
#

theyre for both

gaunt star
#

yeah

autumn heron
swift kraken
#

a full set is like 100 coins i didnt count

#

you need like maybe 5-6 runs for a full set

autumn heron
#

That'd be fine if that shit proced when everyone wasnt already in a crit engagment

amber loom
#

Whats the item level for the bozjan armor?

eager prairie
#

you gotta clear it once

gaunt star
#

495

eager prairie
#

but i dont think you get the entire glam, just the option to buy it

amber loom
#

how many meld slots

faint dagger
#

it's not prog gear

#

it's just eureka gear

swift kraken
#

its bad

faint dagger
#

and glam

swift kraken
#

just use it for glam

late willow
#

2

amber loom
#

495 with 2 slots?

late willow
#

Yes

amber loom
#

Kind of figured it would have 5

swift kraken
#

you get the option to buy it with coins

#

i think a run of castrum is like

#

24-30 coins

#

depending on how many prisoners you rescue in the middle part

late willow
#

Its better than unupgraded Allegory gear, worse than Upgraded/raid gear

swift kraken
#

and how lucky you can get

faint dagger
#

is there actually anything lost death can't kill?

eager prairie
#

bosses I think?

maiden lodge
#

It's not really meant for raid gear but it's glam and it's decent inside Bozja and probably very decent for jobs that need to hit specific gcd plateaus in Bozja.

wet crown
#

I got the log entry of the SSJ pyromancer

#

the guy is in his sixties

#

dayum

#

he outdoes everyone

gentle lynx
#

...this is the second time tonight Castrum spawned and no one joined despite a full 72 person instance

#

less than 20 people both times

#

wtf is going on?

pastel coyote
#

aaaaaaaand it's done

gentle lynx
#

is there some reason not to do Castrum that i don't understand?

eager prairie
#

Late night?

pastel coyote
#

really Castrum is fun, the only downside are the time before it spawn and the short number of people

native zodiac
#

Theres just not enough reasons to go there.

wet crown
#

except the epic fragments you get

native zodiac
#

For glam

#

😄

eager prairie
#

Waa there another CE during the same time?

wet crown
#

fragments

valid hull
#

So I just beat castrum for the first time, and midway watching the cutscene my fucking instance timer timed out.

wet crown
#

well that's on you

eager prairie
#

People can miss the Castrum queue if theyre stuck in a CE

wet crown
#

and it's not a good idea to go in there if you're not prepared

valid hull
#

It ain't on me when the castrum pop happens in the last hour of my instance and enough people queued for it.

pastel coyote
#

well i think they were drunk when they choose the number of token

autumn heron
#

Castrum often procs whilst everyone is already in a crit engagement

maiden lodge
#

Reasons not to do castrum: There's not enough people at level 10+ in there

pastel coyote
#

i mean coin

valid hull
#

It extends your instance timer if it's is shorter than the Castrum timer anyway.
So at least they could add 10 minutes to it.

autumn heron
#

And you cant join it if your in a CE

wet crown
#

the gear itself is easy to get and there's a chance to get the upgrades from the castrum chests

autumn heron
#

Thats the major issue with bozja rn

wet crown
#

the haste buff is purely extra

maiden lodge
#

I mean, check if there's level 10s in your zone, shit just came out two days ago, a lot of people didn't nolife it

wet crown
#

really, it's just a fun way to level up and get efficient 495 gear

pastel coyote
#

well now that i'm "done" with bozja, what's dungeon should i run

maiden lodge
#

Bozja.

wet crown
#

antitower/gubal hard/xelphatol

maiden lodge
#

For bitters?

#

BOZJA.

pastel coyote
#

i will pick anti-tower

wet crown
#

I'll keep doing bozja to level up all my jobs to 80...or at least all the ones I can stomach playing

maiden lodge
#

step 1: Get on a job with strong AoE/Survivability/use lost actions to get you survivability. I used WHM.
Step 2: Go outside the first area and pull level 1 shit. Only level 1 shit.
Step 3: Pull more level 1 shit.
Step 4: Is there still level 1 shit to pull? Pull MORE. ALL of it.
Step 5: Holy/Assize/Misery (do whatever your job does, go to town) while healing self.
Step 6: in 40 minutes, solo, have all 6 plus a fuckton of stuff.

valid hull
#

Anyone got a video at hand of the Castrum ending cutscene?

maiden lodge
#

Step 7: Add a player doing this in another spot, do double the speed

wet crown
#

Hmm...good idea actually

#

I'm gonna do this later with on screamers because I also need those fucking compassion fragments

#

Arise is so rare

maiden lodge
#

Screamers are also good

#

Actually

wet crown
valid hull
#

OH. THE CUTSCENE PLAYS IF I SPEAK TO THE PERSON TO CONTINUE MY QUEST.
Okay good.

maiden lodge
#

Screamers are how I got mine down

eager prairie
#

@valid hull check your persoanl journey journal?

maiden lodge
#

So I recommend

wet crown
#

and holy fuck, violence is so heavily weighted towards death

pastel coyote
#

ok il will try that Dis, but be prepared if i don't get my 6 memory in 5min

wet crown
#

I got 113 deaths and only 17 slashes

maiden lodge
#

If you don't get 6 in 40 minutes, I mean 'statistical probability' but I've had someone levelling for mettle in my party while I did screamers get theirs in around 40 minutes passively

wet crown
#

they knew what they were doing

#

death is not nearly as good as slash

#

in most cases

valid hull
#

Death's great for fragment farming if you have a party running around for it.

#

Slash you usually just use in duels combined with boost

wet crown
#

and it's epic for the hall phase in the CLL

#

also works on the animals in the last fight but eh

maiden lodge
#

But yeah, dungeons are not the way for bitters, and in a pre-made party, HW fates not the way for other memories or for second+ relics

wet crown
#

someone tested slash on multiple jobs

#

it works with reassemble and inner release

valid hull
#

Anything with guaranteed crits.

#

As it is a weapon skill

#

I imagine Dragoon too.

wet crown
#

indeed and that is making me happy

#

oh yeah, them too

valid hull
#

Get like a full health bar back too with dragoon

#

If you boost it

#

Though... no clue why you'd be low

pastel coyote
#

i only get 2 Dis

maiden lodge
#

2 in 11 minutes.

#

Are you doing 5.5 minute HW dungeons?

pastel coyote
#

i can if i want

autumn heron
#

Hrothgar and viera can wear the hood that comes with the Bozjan fending set

#

Thats nice

wet crown
#

not the others on cat daddy

viscid monolith
#

@maiden lodge What did the patch change

maiden lodge
#

Turned on bonus xp on the earring. 10%, not 30%, because changing that is client-side

soft gyro
#

patriot games

#

noone took the mines

#

instant wipe

glacial turret
#

Did something get nerfed on the hotfix

late willow
#

Not really

maiden lodge
#

No. There's a typo in the earring. It's supposed to be 10%, not 30%, and when Bozja dropped, it wasn't giving XP at all

glacial turret
#

Hi Meara

late willow
#

Hi Isra

maiden lodge
#

It gives xp now. It won't replace aetheryte earring until level 71

viscid monolith
#

Did they nerf rates for HW fates?

late willow
#

Doesn't look like it

maiden lodge
#

No, but honestly, people need to try mob-chaining in Bozja, it's not tested enough.

uncut cedar
#

were drop rates increased in bozja?

merry knoll
#

is it better to use bozjan gear in bozjan instance or just stick with your bis?

marsh osprey
#

i got a lot more plates

#

i think

lilac crest
#

I think bozjan gear gave stats

#

Like haste

marsh osprey
#

upgraded bozjan gear

#

but that costs many thousand coins

#

they will probably add some more ways to earn coins

faint dagger
#

second castrum clear

#

i now know

#

that forming a party for north of people who have cleared north

#

is fucking crucial

late willow
#

Apparently Castrum has a rare chance of dropping the upgrade material

faint dagger
#

we had one wipe because the self-designated 20-minutes-in-advance north group totally failed to go north

tardy copper
#

Really hope Castrum is easier today, only managed to queue into one yesterday and then everyone left

faint dagger
#

one wipe because the new designated north group went north and ate shit

#

and then I made a north group of big chonkers and we cleared it flawlessly

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

open verge
#

Bozja has no buisness being this fun

faint dagger
#

Castrum Lacus is REALLY FUN

open verge
#

I only got to one boss

faint dagger
#

i haven't had such an adrenaline rush clearing last night

open verge
#

Didn’t have enough people running it

faint dagger
#

in anything ages

open verge
#

Is it hard?

tardy copper
#

I hate when nobody adds me to their group so I have to switch instances until someone does

viscid monolith
#

You guys are trying to do Castrum too quickly. Gotta wait for more people to get to rank 10.

faint dagger
#

so uh

#

I saw exaflares

open verge
#

That’s true

faint dagger
#

SoS ex element mechanics

open verge
#

Nicee

faint dagger
#

This really wack mechanic where the boss does callout telegraphs, then leaps and does relative A12 sacraments and donuts

#

the enemy in the instance is the timer

#

completing objectives adds 10min

#

most time is gonna be lost on the middle clearing-the-castrum section, just by people flittering around and not being efficient

#

and wiping on the last boss

gentle lynx
#

Alright, i just learned something new about Lyon

#

he casts Twisters

marsh osprey
#

i had like 4 experienced people in my 44 man party

faint dagger
#

thing is uh

viscid monolith
#

Yes

faint dagger
#

i've done Lyon 2 times

viscid monolith
#

He has Twisters

marsh osprey
#

they lead us to a clear

faint dagger
#

but I don't actually know what twisters are

viscid monolith
#

You ever did T5

faint dagger
#

no

gentle lynx
#

the green thing that spawns under you and immediately blows you up

faint dagger
#

oh

#

i never saw that on lyon

gentle lynx
#

It's Twintania's signature move and it is cancer

faint dagger
#

does that happen if you don't like, kill him quick?

gentle lynx
#

if you survive the earthquake + cleave, he casts Twisters

viscid monolith
#

Nah just a regular attack

gentle lynx
#

no, you have to be moving when he casts it, essentially

viscid monolith
#

What is his Twister attack called?

gentle lynx
#

so that in the half second it takes the thing to prime you're not on it anymore

#

i didn't catch the name

viscid monolith
#

I died to Taste of Blood because I didn't knkw what it did

faint dagger
#

yeah we killed him like

#

second exaflares

gentle lynx
#

uh

#

no

viscid monolith
#

Didn't know it was a cleave

gentle lynx
#

we're talking about the solo engagement

faint dagger
#

wait

#

Oh

#

kekw

#

okay

#

my bad

gaunt star
#

Fuck twister

gentle lynx
#

So far the sequence i've seen is Buff (Dispel mandatory) -> Expanding Earthquake + Sloppeh Cleave -> Twisters

#

i have never seen anyone survive Sloppeh until just now, and the guy technically died he just auto-rezzed

marsh osprey
#

twister was the mechanic that made people not clear t5 for weeks

gentle lynx
#

and then Lyon casts Twister

viscid monolith
#

To be fair

#

That was because T5 was broken

#

And the game had trash latency everywhere but Japan

marsh osprey
#

took them ages still to understand twisters

#

iirc one party managed to clear it before changes

gaunt star
viscid monolith
#

Ya one party from Blue Gartr

floral aurora
#

Anyone beat a boss 1vs1 in Bozja yet?

gentle lynx
#

JP killed Gabriel

#

haven't heard of any clears against Lyon or the Pyro though

faint dagger
#

I've seen a war do very well

gentle lynx
#

so we now have full mechs for Gabe

faint dagger
#

and then die due to greeding mustadio on gabriel and getting merked

gentle lynx
#

Manawall is mandatory, either that or i think Hallowed might work

gaunt star
#

Yeah

#

The tank invulns work

faint dagger
#

so idk if common knowledge yet but bozja base gear is 495 with two meld slots

gentle lynx
#

technically only Hallowed will work, because you have no healers

odd yoke
#

Lyon looks fucking insane...

gentle lynx
#

unless you use Arise to full heal yourself, i guess

faint dagger
#

dyes... averagely, it's one of those where some parts of it don't dye ever

odd yoke
#

So we got

Aoe with Enaero (dispel) > growing aoe thing > Half room aoe > 4 twisters > 4 fireballs that pulse aoes > fireball line aoes + half room aoe > twister despawn + buster (manawall/invuln) > winds peak (point blank aoe + knockback) > heart of nature (aoe and spawns exaflares) + Winds peak > Kings Notice (Gaze) > Heart of Nature (Aoe + exaflares + growing earthquakes) > Splitting Rage (Temporary Misdirection) > Jump + Half room cleave. >Twisters > Winds Peak > 4 fire balls (pulsating aoes) > Heart of nature (aoe + exaflares + growing earthquakes) + 2 fireball line aoes going off > earthquakes start growing with final 2 fireball lines > Exaflares move + Half room cleave

gaunt star
#

Yeah

odd yoke
#

For lyon

gaunt star
#

Damn how close have people gotten on Lyon

odd yoke
#

70%

#

That's all

#

70%

gaunt star
#

To 70% or 30% left?

odd yoke
#

To 70%

gaunt star
#

Jesus

odd yoke
#

He's fucking insane

gentle lynx
#

what's a pulsating aoe?

#

also you telling me that's like the first third of his fight?

odd yoke
#

He drops fireballs that pulsate out somewhat sizeable point blank aoes around them

gentle lynx
#

So they're sort of growing point blank AoEs?

odd yoke
#

No, same size

#

If they're growing i make them as Growing

gentle lynx
#

okay so they're just point blanks

odd yoke
#

Pulsate just means they repeat a few times

gentle lynx
#

OOHH.

#

okay

tardy copper
#

Lyon is 1v1?

odd yoke
#

Yes

#

The centre duel

gentle lynx
#

The solo engagement, yeah

odd yoke
#

After chocobo

tardy copper
#

what’s the reward for winning a 1v1 besides a title?

gentle lynx
#

i dunno

odd yoke
#

Well for Gabriel at least

gaunt star
#

99 lockboxes right

odd yoke
#

Its 99 boxes, 9k mettle, instance wide buff increasing Mettle gained by 50% and title

#

At least for Gabriel

#

Other duels might give more

gentle lynx
#

I'm kinda concerned that pyro's fight might actually be harder than Lyon's

gaunt star
#

What do we know about the 3rd duel

odd yoke
#

We know 2 minutes of the pyro duel

gentle lynx
#

Pyro drops Akh Rhais

faint dagger
#

i thought yoship was overegging it being a 1 man ultimate

#

...but he was closer to that than i thought

gentle lynx
#

I've seen Pyro only once

#

it's so damn rare

gaunt star
#

I’ve never seen it

faint dagger
#

nor me

#

i've never seen lyon either

#

just gabriel

gaunt star
#

I’ve seen Lyon like twice

gentle lynx
#

He follows the mechanic Kyubi fight

odd yoke
#

So I'm seeing

Meltdown (exploding puddle) > Time eruptions > Thermal gust (line aoe) > 2 sets of phoenix dives (watch to see which ones cast first) > Meltdown > Tornado transformation > Flashover cast > Flaming Rain cast (drops 3 aoes around you) > tornado aoe comes out + more aoes under you + boss caats Backdraft > last set of aoes after dodging the 2nd set > Small wait before a very strong knock with a Front and back cleave via Thermal wave cast

#

For pyro

faint dagger
#

also is our Lyon pogging they got an NPC named after them

#

the mentor Lyon lol

odd yoke
#

You can see

#

How fucking

#

Insane

#

He is

gentle lynx
#

Metal Scorpion -> Gabriel ; Red Comet -> Lyon ; Dainsleif -> Pyro

#

Basically, the hardest CE of each tier i'd say

#

and yeah this is basically a 1-man ultimate

#

if you're lucky enough to get selected and you actually win, you're a fucking legend

odd yoke
#

OH apparently i was just told

#

Lyons buster

#

Goes through tank immunities

#

You NEED manawall

#

Even as tank

gentle lynx
#

oh jesus christ

gaunt star
#

Damn

gentle lynx
#

...wait, so that's 2 mandatory actions then

#

how are you gonna heal??

odd yoke
#

Yeah fuck your self healing

#

Probably resistance potions

#

Since those are items not actions

#

Maybe throw up auto potion

gentle lynx
#

Or play PLD

gaunt star
#

Or war maybe

odd yoke
#

Or a job with self healing like pld/war

#

Or healers/rdm

#

I think someone said the pots are like 4k hp per tick

gaunt star
#

Sounds about right from when I used one

odd yoke
#

So like 60k worth of healing

#

Which isn't bad

#

OH AND NOW APPARENTLY THE ROTATION ISNT HARD SET

#

Well fuck me sideways

gentle lynx
#

Fuck Zenos, Lyon is now the alpha male of this game

faint dagger
#

it's funny cause he's a literal alpha

#

but he has hur dur male highlander vibes like Godbert

#

it's funny

#

he's got too much comedy relief against him

#

like the end of castrum cutscene|| where the camera just zooms in on him being comically shocked you actually won||

gaunt star
#

He makes me want beastmaster as a job so badly

faint dagger
#

I stan BST

gentle lynx
#

...wait, he DOES look like Godbert

faint dagger
#

i am a Hunter Main

#

I need it

#

And not as limited

gaunt star
#

Yes

valid hull
#

Castrum spoilers: ||That part is hilarious Emu. He's just like "wait what you bitch"||

gaunt star
#

Not as limited

gentle lynx
#

i still haven't beaten Castrum ;-;

gaunt star
#

Tho they could make it nuts if it was limited

open verge
#

It’s going to be limited

gaunt star
#

But ugh

faint dagger
#

it's like a tom and jerry skit the comedic timing

gentle lynx
#

my alliance this morning failed the Lyon phase 3 times this morning and we failed the whole thing

open verge
#

It’s gonna be limited

gentle lynx
#

and tonight there has literally been no CLLs that filled up

faint dagger
#

We failed Lyon twice, because group 1 who literally volunteered failed to go north

gentle lynx
#

i don't understand why no one wants to do it

faint dagger
#

then group 2 who volunteered again, just died

#

then I formed group 3 with the biggest chunkers I could spot

#

and we decimated him

gentle lynx
#

what's the fail state

#

just death?

#

like, full 8-man wipe, or anyone dies you go?

gaunt star
#

I feel like I got super lucky with my group

gentle lynx
#

or is it a DPS check?

gaunt star
#

Did it first try 0 wipes yesterday

faint dagger
#

either 8 man wipe or enrage

gentle lynx
#

does he say anything on enrage?

faint dagger
#

he dps checks not insignificantly

#

He does but I forget it

#

something like 'is that all you've got, what a dismal performance'

#

then he ejects anyone remaining north

#

and the bird does full damage to everyone

open verge
#

Yoshi p hinted at it being limited so I wouldn’t be surprised at al

gentle lynx
#

hmm... wait, does the enrage kill the party?

faint dagger
#

yes

gaunt star
#

castrum spawns once an hour right

faint dagger
#

lyon enrage causes a full wipe

gentle lynx
#

no i mean, does he kill the people upstairs

faint dagger
#

yes

gentle lynx
#

before the bird deletes everyone

faint dagger
#

he ejects the people upstairs

#

then wipes the raid

gentle lynx
#

so, the people upstairs don't INSTANTLY die?

placid matrix
#

Can't believe they added Stands to FF14

gentle lynx
#

they get ejected down, and THEN the bird wipes us?

faint dagger
#

yes

#

if the enrage is failed

soft gyro
#

LMAO, you can dualcast lost death

gentle lynx
#

okay then that explains it, those dumbasses hit enrage and failed

faint dagger
#

so everyone is present in bottom for the bird to do full damage

gentle lynx
#

i was wondering why they were alive when Lyon said they failed

#

i'm going upstairs myself next time i get the chance to actually do CLL

faint dagger
#

yeah

placid matrix
#

Does the castrum scale or is it really that easy?

faint dagger
#

i went upstairs on my first clear because our shotcaller asked for big chonkers

gentle lynx
#

i mean, i don't main DPS, but i like to think i'm decent with SAM

faint dagger
#

Castrum scales from 26 or so

#

But you will notice quality dps

gentle lynx
#

Castrum scales, but there's obviously a minimum amount of people you want

faint dagger
#

yeah, 26 or so is the minimum i think

#

it's around that

gentle lynx
#

i'd hazard 24

soft gyro
#

aka, 2 parties on up and down

gentle lynx
#

since that would be 3 full parties

faint dagger
gentle lynx
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

faint dagger
#

yeah we had it today where upstairs on first boss killed while downstairs had 30% left

gentle lynx
#

i'm glad i brought tank in on my first prog run though, learning mechs was important

faint dagger
#

was kinda embarassing

gentle lynx
#

how hard is downstairs on first boss?

#

i did upstairs

#

those magnets suck

soft gyro
#

downstairs are pretty easy

gaunt star
#

I think down is way easier than up on first boss

gentle lynx
#

everything upstairs is fine except the magnets, those launch you SO FAR it's hard to get it right

marsh osprey
#

Upstairs is braindead

faint dagger
#

downstairs just needs body soaking lines

gaunt star
#

So is down lmao

faint dagger
#

and it has TGC tethers

#

./titania

gentle lynx
#

TGC?

#

oooohhhh Thunder God?

next quarry
#

Thunder God Cid

gentle lynx
#

THAT tether

#

right

next quarry
#

People take turns with tether?

gentle lynx
#

i would assume

odd yoke
#

Passable tethee

#

Yes

faint dagger
#

yes

odd yoke
#

It gives vuln

#

In a aoe around you

faint dagger
#

taking tether gives fire damage+++++

#

so taking two ohkos you

gaunt star
#

^

faint dagger
#

like uh, titania

next quarry
#

Can you reflect it

faint dagger
#

unknown

#

probably

gaunt star
#

Not sure didn’t try

faint dagger
#

it's a dummy mech so

#

may as well save it

wary pond
#

ok castrum clears

#

to get caprine

#

all prisoners must be saved

faint dagger
#

...caprine?

wary pond
#

caprice

#

fragments

faint dagger
#

we got 4 prisoners and we actually choked hard in nobody checking a whole-ass corridor

#

so we could've done it ez

odd yoke
#

Caprice has the super broken skills

#

Like mimic

#

And the dice

wary pond
#

yes

faint dagger
#

i bought the bozja fending coat and gloves

#

not feeling the love for most of the rest

#

idk

tardy copper
#

what are the best lost actions for MCH in Castrum?

wary pond
#

deep essence of platebearer

#

make u survive fuck ups

wicked oak
#

any website for the fragments / lost actions?

wet crown
#

@tardy copper Lost Slash + Reassemble

wary pond
#

if u want pure damage then above with essence of skirmisher + banner of honored sacrifice

#

mix those and your lost slash with pre crit hit

#

will do closer to 600k

lilac crest
#

Lmfao what the fuck

wary pond
#

assuming you are lyon party

lilac crest
#

Where do I get lost slash

wary pond
#

i think its violence

#

fragments

#

which drop from bozja riders

#

rank 5

#

in 3rd area

#

slash can be used

#

once per min btw

odd yoke
#

90s

pastel coyote
#

i try to form party for farm rank V but nobody come

soft gyro
#

dead instance prob

gentle lynx
#

you don't need Riders

#

Those Coffin dudes drop them too

#

and they're only rank 3

tardy copper
#

I think doing anything strategically in Bozja will be much easier next week once people play it through the weekend

heavy crane
#

I take it there's not much point trying to get into Castrum Litore right now

gentle lynx
#

probably, depending on your timezone

#

it'ts like midnight over here so i'm not even in Bozja anymore :v

heavy crane
#

I meant more like, this day

#

Probably not enough people at rank 10 yet

gentle lynx
#

not necessarily, i got a run that's above 30 people this morning

faint dagger
#

i've had groups of 30+

gentle lynx
#

made it to last fight then failed

#

it's been a complete flop tonight though, twice with under 20 people, had to bail

heavy crane
#

Does the story imply that there's going to be a second part to Bozja, like Eureka? I don't know if they ever officially said there would be multiple zones

wet crown
#

it implies that Dalmasca is a possible location

heavy crane
#

Oh, though if it's the relic thing then I guess there probably will be

marsh osprey
#

I had a 44 man group in eu 1 hour after server launch

#

Eeeeeasy clear

gentle lynx
#

jealous

marsh osprey
wet crown
#

nice stick

heavy crane
#

I hate the dragoon relic

gentle lynx
#

i wish my alliance didn't suck ass and actually beat Lyon phase ;-;

marsh osprey
#

Glowstick

heavy crane
#

I really wish that they'd let us dye the glow

tardy copper
#

I think there will be 2 more areas for Bozja to level up beyond rank 15

wet crown
#

you never get to dye the glow

gentle lynx
#

i don't think we're gonna see an expansion of Bozja

#

it's probably gonna be Dalmasca next if anything

wet crown
#

ofc not, because 6.0 will be Ilsabard

gentle lynx
#

no i mean, i don't think we'll have more Bozja areas

wet crown
#

though I'm unsure if Bozja is part of Ilsabard or Othard

marsh osprey
#

The glow on whm stick is kinda dyeable

gentle lynx
#

not that the next expansion is gonna be Bozja

marsh osprey
#

Because the leaves get dyed and affect the glow

wet crown
#

Ehhhhh

gentle lynx
#

i'm saying if there's gonna be more ShB Eureka it'll be Dalmasca instead of another Bozja map

#

that's my guess

heavy crane
#

They kind of have left that storyline hanging

marsh osprey
wet crown
#

the story reveals all of the bozja stuff is just to distract the rebellion and take over Dalmasca

#

and with the stuff that happens after CLL, it makes sense that we might just go there

oak pike
#

Isn’t the resistance story line and the weapons storyline gonna combine soon ?

wet crown
#

Oh, the Ultima Weapons

#

I doubt that.

#

okay I admit, the dye on that stick is cool

faint dagger
#

How does one maximise Memory drops in bozja?

wet crown
#

kill lots of things

#

and if you really wanna maximize, do HW content

wary perch
#

Farm cluster or fragment while.you farm memory from mobs

faint dagger
#

yeah but i've finished 3 relics and i'm sick of hw

wary perch
#

Best is get a group and mass pull

#

Forget memory from skirmish and ce

wet crown
#

Bozja is the slower approach that rewards you with additional stuff. So the atmas drop more sparsely

wary perch
#

It's not worth it

autumn heron
#

its like a 40% drop rate for memories

#

in bozja

wet crown
#

Honestly, I only use Bozja for leveling and the weapons are my secondary objective

open verge
#

How many dungeons run for a relic?

faint dagger
#

6

wary perch
#

I get more memory from farming mobs than fates

odd yoke
#

6 bitters

autumn heron
#

they have to be synched right?

odd yoke
#

Mobs are the way to go to farm

#

Yeah

autumn heron
#

fug

open verge
#

So bozja is faster for memories?

autumn heron
#

no

odd yoke
#

Group up > spread out > aoe shit

autumn heron
#

HW fates are for most of them

odd yoke
#

Let that shit rain

#

All 3 types at once

open verge
#

No I meant the second

#

The second step is faster in bozja?

autumn heron
#

oh. I dont know if bitters drop from fates

#

in bozja

odd yoke
#

They're all faster in bojza, just that no one has caught onto the idea of actually farming mobs

#

To properly group up

#

And aoe farm

open verge
#

Hmm

odd yoke
#

Like literally

autumn heron
#

I still only have 18 Bozjan Clusters

odd yoke
#

Group out

open verge
#

Do you have to farm the same mobs as a group?

autumn heron
#

I need 180

odd yoke
#

No

#

Spread out

open verge
#

Clusters take time it seems

odd yoke
#

Farm mobs everywhere

#

They go to everyone in the party

oak pike
#

I’m getting a lot of clusters

odd yoke
#

So you get all 3 types at onxe

autumn heron
#

clusters only drop from mechanical enemies

odd yoke
#

With clusters

autumn heron
#

specifically the bozjan clusters

odd yoke
#

If you're hitting mechs

autumn heron
#

the ones needed to get the mount

open verge
#

I’m gonna start a farm party for clusters

#

Should I use lost actions to make it fast

odd yoke
#

Obviously yeag

#

Faster means more drops since you go faster

autumn heron
#

I heard the death one kills the drop rate

#

but Im not sure

odd yoke
#

Deathing stuff still gets things to drop

#

But just group up a large group

#

And aoe it down

#

Even rank 1s work

#

Like the cactuars or shit outside the base

autumn heron
#

Dont try to kill rank 3's as a DPS solo, I learned that the hard way

odd yoke
#

Be tank/healer to survive then mow shit down

oak pike
#

RDM goes brrrr

#

Nice being able to heal and stuff

autumn heron
#

Most of the mechanical enemies in bozja are weak to magic it says

#

so I switched to BLM

#

I got mowed down

odd yoke
#

Healer or spellforge tank

marsh osprey
#

i can solo rank 3 as whm

wary pond
#

no i need to farm alot of castrums

#

then clear duels

#

cleared gabriel

autumn heron
#

you beat the 1v1?

wary pond
#

yes

#

gabriel

autumn heron
#

👑

wary pond
#

with 30 secs to spare

#

now i can focus on kyon

#

lyon and the fire mage

odd yoke
#

Lyon is insane

wary pond
#

red choco

#

yes

odd yoke
#

No he himself

wary pond
#

oh yes

odd yoke
#

His rotation isn't static and his mechanics are wack

open verge
#

So how do you clear 1v1

wary pond
#

he does twisters and liquid hells

open verge
#

You required to use lost actions?

marsh osprey
autumn heron
#

Yes

#

very nice

odd yoke
#

Lost actions are required

#

Gabriel needs manawall for non tanks

open verge
#

What’s the reward

odd yoke
#

Physical jobs Spellforge is highly recommended to hit dps check others you need other strong actions

open verge
#

Oh 99 loot boxes

odd yoke
#

99 boxes, title, 9k mettle and instance wide buff increasing Mettle

marsh osprey
#

whats the title

#

cuz thats the good reward

odd yoke
#

Gabriel is Gabriel downfall

open verge
#

Jesus Christ that’s so much money

marsh osprey
#

or 99 indigos

odd yoke
#

Doing all 3 1v1s get you Sword of the South

marsh osprey
#

sword of the south is gonna be RARE

oak pike
#

Bozja triple legend

marsh osprey
#

yeah basically

faint dagger
#

necromancer tier ngl

marsh osprey
#

you need to grind a shitload and/or be very lucky

odd yoke
#

Once we figure out the rotation and mechanics ans get guides it shouldnt be bad

faint dagger
#

What mobs are good to pull for middle/top zone?

wary pond
#

he mix twisters + liquid hell + his 80% of arena slash

#

must duspel his wind buff

odd yoke
#

So we got

Aoe with Enaero (dispel) > growing aoe thing > Half room aoe > 4 twisters > 4 fireballs that pulse aoes > fireball line aoes + half room aoe > twister despawn + buster (manawall, invulns DONT WORK) > winds peak (point blank aoe + knockback) > heart of nature (aoe and spawns exaflares) + Winds peak > Kings Notice (Gaze) > Heart of Nature (Aoe + exaflares + growing earthquakes) > Splitting Rage (Temporary Misdirection) > Jump + Half room cleave. >Twisters > Winds Peak > 4 fire balls (pulsating aoes) > Heart of nature (aoe + exaflares + growing earthquakes) + 2 fireball line aoes going off > earthquakes start growing with final 2 fireball lines > Exaflares move + Half room cleave

He can change the order

wary pond
#

he pop it alot

odd yoke
#

Current framework

soft gyro
faint dagger
#

pog

#

easy

wary pond
#

didnt get in in fire mage one

#

have yet to master metal guy dodging

#

metal fox

soft gyro
#

oh hey, im also doing metal fox now

odd yoke
#

We.have up to 2mins for that one

#

So I'm seeing

Meltdown (exploding puddle) > Time eruptions > Thermal gust (line aoe) > phoenix dives (watch to see which ones cast first) > Meltdown > Tornado transformation > Flashover cast > Flaming Rain cast (drops 3 aoes around you) > tornado aoe comes out + more aoes under you + boss caats Backdraft > last set of aoes after dodging the 2nd set > Small wait before a very strong knock with a Front and back cleave via Thermal wave cast

wary pond
#

but yeah

#

solo instances are whatever

#

unless u seek challenge like me

#

its actually good its solo

#

so i dont rely on shitters but myself

snow zodiac
#

For the bitter memories can I queue for 6 specific lv60 dungeons back to back or is that one per day like roulette?

heavy crane
#

You can spam em

snow zodiac
#

sweeet

gaunt star
#

where do i exchange the coins

pastel coyote
#

you don't need them, gimme

#

or try the guy supplier something

autumn heron
#

The resistance supplier I think

gaunt star
#

thought i'd be able to turn them in without full clear meltdown

pastel coyote
#

ha yes you need to clear the castrum

gaunt star
#

failed at 3% final boss PepeHands

pastel coyote
#

i don't want any excuse

odd yoke
#

Apparently the upgrade items for armour also drop on last boss

wary pond
#

gabriel became soo easy now

#

with deep essence bloodsucker

#

and honored sacrifice

#

i get him to 20% before missiles

#

and spellforge

#

my confetti do 100k on him

viscid monolith
#

Were you using Spirit of the Irregular?

wary pond
#

no

viscid monolith
#

Is that viable in duels or no

wary pond
#

deep essence of bloodsucker

#

idk

#

bloodsucker give u 48% dmg

#

and 25% of that dmg heal u

viscid monolith
#

How do I get that

wary pond
#

castrum

viscid monolith
#

Damnit

next quarry
#

Deep Essences are the OP drops

viscid monolith
#

With Bloodsucker I wouldn't even need to Dispel Lyon

wary pond
#

and honored sacrifice give u 55% dmg
but you get 5% hp bleed

#

add spell forge too

#

and even lowest hit

#

deal 20k on gabriel

#

all your hits

#

become fell cleaves

#

under inner beast

#

lyon autos still do 20k

faint dagger
wary pond
#

u need to dispel it

viscid monolith
#

Not me

#

I'm built different

#

Also I was on PLD so they did 12k

wary pond
#

the longer fight goes

odd yoke
#

The aoe damage will probably chunk

wary pond
#

it deal higher and higher dmg

#

it peaked at 40k at one point

#

for me

viscid monolith
#

Ok fine. Can I at least switch out Dispel for something else mid fight?

wary pond
#

u can dispel

#

then change after

#

i guess

#

but dunno if he never put it up again

odd yoke
#

At least until we find out if he reapplies

marsh osprey
#

i think if i get anotehr castrum run

#

im gonna get healer boots and gloves

autumn heron
#

I just want

#

one run

#

then focus on clusters

shell merlin
#

wary pond

#

i think about 2 mins

odd yoke
#

Thats what we have currently

wary pond
#

should have HGed it
