If both hitting provoke with precise timing and clearly communicating that it was used are mission critical, just make the "YO I HIT PROVOKE SHITLORD" callout be a separate button from the actual spell.

Panic! at Nabisco posted:So now that we know MCH isn't as bad a class as we thought, just wanna ask how demanding it is to actually play. How hard is it compared to other DPS? I'm a career healer looking into branching into DPS (and I main SCH, so SMN is not much of a vacation), but I'm not actually very good at the whole DPS thing, so I'm waffling back and forth on which to pick. MCH is the hardest dps class to play and probably has the lowest risk/reward payoff, in terms of overall dps numbers. Its no slouch in terms of dps but the things you have to do and know to play well is higher than other dps classes. That said I do enjoy playing MCH and getting wildfire right feels real good, but getting wildfire wrong feels real bad man. In the end its not super important if you are not great at the class as no fight in the game yet requires you to be great and if you dont plan on doing any of that content when it comes out then it doesnt matter. Play it if you like how it plays.

Fister Roboto posted:Open the pet tab of your abilities window. You can drag the abilities to your hotbar from there. You do have to mash the button a bit even without the macro though. Thanks, I keep forgetting about that whole window (Let me tell you how I found out the three mudra ninjitsu combinations at first! ). I'll give it a spin and hopefully it means I can get bane off sooner.

This is contributing nothing. Vermain posted:If your ping is 100+, I agree, but I have not had a single issue with a 70 average ping using utility macros for Hallowed Ground/Provoke/Divine Veil. Do not use Hallowed Ground macros. Divine Veil is okay, since many healers are not used to it being A Thing yet.

Speaking of Divine Veil, when are the best times to use it? I've figured out what to do with most of my new abilities, but I'm still kind of feeling out that one.

When Melee are going to take a strong hit the extra barrier is nice. Or if it's a boss like Mr. "SIT-NERS WILL BE PURGED" you can maneuver to hit everyone with the barrier for one of his big AoE's since he doesn't have a cleave. It's not very crucial though since 10% of max hp on a PLD isn't a lot when everyone's pushing 10k+ numbers.

It takes a lot of coordination and foresight. If it's to mitigate a raidbuster like Gigaflare, I like to pop it right when I see Sacred Soil getting put down, because everyone's going to group up there and it will usually be followed up by a Succor which will trigger the shield. Alternatively, you can just pop it on cooldown when there's a lot of raidwide damage going out, like in the second phase of Bismarck EX.

If the game has flavour of the month classes, I'd say SMN would be one. They're looking pretty drat good, but I think every primal or Alex fight I do has 2+.

As an apology for 2.X tri-disaster it got renamed tri-bind and at lv54 or 56 you get new hot and sexy tri-disaster which is a one minute cooldown that applies the big three dots all at once. At lv52 you get an aoe attack that does burst damage. Also Fister Roboto posted:They can cast Akh Morn and Teraflare, that's all you really need to know. SMN is pretty fun right now! Way better than 2.X SMN.
