So, uh, I don't know if this is common knowledge or not, but I've seen a lot of posts about how MCH has to keep spamming 1 over and over until it work, then hit 2 and pray that works as well before ever hitting 3. That's not how it works  MCH does not have a 1-2-3 combo, each skill independently has a chance to give you a buff that increases the power of the next skill. You can spam Slug Shot over and over between ammo cooldowns and it will proc Clean Shot boosts just fine without ever touching Split Shot. Additionally, because it works on a weird buff based system rather than as an actual combo, you can hit, say, Hot Shot in between skills and it will not drop the buff. For that matter, you can even have both the Clean Shot and Slug Shot buff up at the same time. Again, sorry if this is common knowledge but I didn't work it out for a while and wanted to let people know.

This is a bad idea. Unprocced 2 and 3 have only 100 potency, while 1 has more (140 I think?). 1 + procced 2 has more potency than unprocced 2 + procced 3. Don't try and skip through the combo and think you're clever: you are seriously screwing over your potency.

Gauss Barrel adds a cast time to all non-procced shots unless you use rapid fire. By opening with rapid fire, reload and using 121 as your first three attacks, you guarantee all 6 shots in your rotation are instant cast: 1 (instant by Rapid Fire, procs 2) 2 (instant since procced, procs 3) 1 (instant by Rapid Fire, procs 2) Rapid Fire wears off 3 (instant since procced) 2 (instant since procced, procs 3) 3 (instant since procced)

Also weave Split inbetween your Hot Shot and Lead Shot to fish for procs without firestarter-ing your casts

bonewitch posted:Based off my knowledge of Bard: It's a dps increase assuming you don't need to move for longer than a gcd or two, depending on procs. It's even better for machinists because the attacks that are exclusive to it are off-GCDs and don't have a casting time, and you don't have a casting time on your 2 and 3 combo procs either. So it's really just lead shot, hot shot and split shot that you have to be careful about. And even if you are interrupted by movement, it's not as bad as bard because your turret is still plugging away.

That way you end up with procs on 2 and 3 after you run out of ammo and can fish for one last 3 proc before going back to repeating split shot or refreshing lead shot or whatever else you need to/can do. And you should always use reassemble on the first 3, when you still have ammo, since ammo adds 20 to the potency of any attack it's used with.

Mildly interested, if only to see what my character would have looked like with its superior graphics engine. Unless they don't plan on having 20,000 p poly flower puts in which case what is the point

seiferguy posted:I... kind of want to play this, to see how truly awful it was. It doesn't have much of anything, you can just kind of wander around but there's no NPCs or anything and the combat doesn't even work. It's been a while since I tried it but it doesn't look like much has changed then. If you get it working, definitely check out Mor Dhona and Coerthas, it's very interesting to compare them then and now. I tried to give it a go just now but it just crashes upon launch, my 970 just can't handle the shader code on the flowerpots

There are three ways to try and get on a high populated server. 1) Attempt to make a character at random times hoping to get in. 2) Make a character after servers come up from maintenance (there is one tonight) 3) Start playing on another server and pay to transfer after 3 days

Any goons on the JP servers? I live in Japan so I've been playing on a JP datacenter for latency issues. Japanese players are nice, just not so chatty and I don't really wanna speak Japanese in the game anyways. I hear Tonberry is the official AU/Oceanic server? Or should I try Excal and deal with the lag?
