Zweihander01 posted:Looking for some crafters on Excalibur to make the fending Sky Pirate pieces. At a minimum I need someone to make the Pterodactyl Leather and Cloud Cloth, and then I'll need a 2-star ARM (for chest and gloves), LTW (for boots), and WVR (for pants). I already have the alloy ingots made, thanks to Ruan. Feel free to either reply to this post or contact Anime Cliche ingame. I'll be on in an hour or two here if you're still looking. Shoot a tell to Samba De'migo or ask in the crafter linkshell when I get on/someone in the crafter linkshell if I'm online. I can do the LTW for you, but no WVR or ARM.

Kuvo posted:so i started leveling astrologian and i have to wonder why they made three of the six cards have the same color icon? its pretty hard to tell ewer/spear/arrow apart at a glance Well, the (awful) reason was to have them match the colors of the Eorzean elements. It is hard to tell the blue ones apart, but you eventually get used to it.

I want to say it also does nothing to a blm in astral fire but I'm not sure I haven't played BLM much since Heavenward, but Astral fire sets your natural regen to 0. You still get MP from a BRD/MCH. Its also confusing as gently caress when you still have mana after "the usual" number of fire spells (but I'm a terrible BLM).

If not for SMNs in the party, Ewer feels strange in that it basically becomes the RNG based way AST makes up for not having Assize / Energy Drain mana return. ed: Good point below about mana for Bards/Mech. Hadn't thought of that. nuru fucked around with this message at 22:52 on Nov 19, 2015 |

Is it true that giving the arrow to a ninja will ruin their day as they miss multiple global cooldowns every time they try to do mudras?

Kuvo posted:so i started leveling astrologian and i have to wonder why they made three of the six cards have the same color icon? its pretty hard to tell ewer/spear/arrow apart at a glance The color-coding for AST cards can be a bit confusing at first. One of my FC mates is partially colorblind and he has a hell of a time distinguishing Spear/Ewer/Arrow from color alone. If you're having trouble, I suggest learning the icons for the cards rather than the color (So The Balance is a sun, The Bole is a tree, etc...). Also if you play with sound on each of the cards makes a distinctive sound effect when they're pulled, which means that sometimes I can tell what I pulled without really looking.

Your rotation is so tight that it doesnt really help much, though. Also that graphic with the cards is outdated.

Most of my Ewer's get turned into Expanded Balance/Arrows for everyone. Spear's are the only one I have a hard time using since it seems to only affect CD's and only those that are cast while under it's duration.

Suitaru posted:Doesn't Darkside prevent most MP recovery? Which is why I said when they changed it from a reduction to a refresh that DRKs were going to hate this. You could actually use Ewer on DRK and let them play a little more loosey-goosey with their MP management. I don't know that BLMs could have made use of it, what I heard was that the rotation was so locked into muscle memory that even if they did have the mana to squeeze off an extra spell where they'd normally bottom out, they'd just go into the next part of their rotation anyways. But the real death of using Ewer/Spire on anyone else was when they made it Royal Road into AoE instead of extension as it was at launch.

nuru posted:I can't remember where our LBs were going. I think we were LBing immediately going into phase 5 (spear of the fury) with whatever we have, then using a DPS LB3 whenever it's up? I could be wrong though since I'm not a melee on the fight. If you're saving for that window in phase 8, do you use it earlier at all? As a SCH it's not super healer intensive; a WHM can solo heal the whole drat thing so as a SCH your job boils down to being an added safety net. Healing/shields you provide is mana the WHM doesn't have to spend, and having a SCH around makes fuckups more recoverable, like when jumps aren't placed far enough apart or someone has weakness from an earlier screwup and really needs an extra 3k HP to survive incoming raidwide AOEs. For the chains section, it helps to make sure that people aren't running and spreading apart too quickly before the chains appear; if people start closer together they don't have to go as far to break chains. As a SCH once I've broken my chain I basically just turn around and run back to the tank to start bringing tank HP up again; as long as people were topped off to begin with and aren't stacking meteor damage they'll survive all the unavoidable damage coming in and you can focus on the tank until everybody can group up for AOE heals. Save a lustrate to drop on the tank while you're running back into heal range (if you had to run that far) and make sure you top everyone off with a Succor before the chains come out and you shouldn't have any problems.

No. It will slightly delay their next weapon skill after mudras, but that's hardly an issue. What it will do is make them burn TP like it's going out of style. But otherwise, ninjas love arrows.
