Ferrinus posted:I have, and on four or five enemies, your potency/second is marginally higher if you skip the F2s, while on six+enemies a pair of F2s mildly wins out. What about T4, do you always want to keep it going?

vOv posted:What about T4, do you always want to keep it going? Iiiii have not done the math on that one but have been assuming yes. It's for sure worth it if you're using F2, because a regular non-proc T4 actually does more total potency than an F2 does. In particular if you're eschewing F2 entirely AND using such things as ley lines and triplecast, your rotation might literally be shorter than Transpose's cooldown, in which case you'll want to refresh T4 just to make sure you're always casting.

Summoner is really fun in PVP. Getting battle high/fever just makes the murder even more ridiculous.Fister Roboto posted:Seal Rock is a lot more fun than Fields of Glory imho, because it actually forces people to fight each other if they want to win. But nobody ever queues for it for exactly that reason. The Xaela have a better pvp mode than players do. Naadam pvp map when?

Renegret posted:Triple casting flares is the funniest loving thing in this game. It's less funny when I forget to pop diversion beforehand but it's worth it. I believe that there's some sort of threshold based on number of enemies that someone mathed out where Fire 2 is worth fitting in since it doesn't get reduced on additional enemies, but I don't recall what that threshold is. I think it was somewhere around 6. If you're swift/triplecasting your flares, I think you may end up waiting on the transpose cooldown as well, I think? Though you'd only throw in one F2 in that case. I'll have to doublecheck on a dummy later. The thread ought to compile a list of known good class guides and, where none are available, create them. It'd be a huge resource for new players or even people who aren't new but may have missed some tricks that can be pulled. Also, dungeons give max ethers now, no excuse not to be quad flaring. If you have a second BLM or a RDM who likes you enough, mana shift means 5 flares. 5 flares, my friend. Living the dream.

Evil Fluffy posted:The Xaela have a better pvp mode than players do. Naadam pvp map when? Naadam is pretty much just a single point seize map, where capture is finality. Ultimately I think that would be awful as a frontlines type, as is. I do think they need to move away from modes that include PvE elements though, because it breeds this weird mentality among people where they don't need to PvP in PvP to be useful, when Fisters scoreboard the other night shows exactly how opposite the reality is. I've actually come to like Seize a lot now, the removal of field effect AoEs in PvP has done wonders for that mode. But it definitely does drag along really long. Since we've had an OF confirmation that we will be getting another Seize map, I do hope they revisit the mechanics of the mode to make it a bit faster.

Living the dream. You can combine triplecast and swiftcast and convert and ether for Swiftcast Quadruple Flare, right? This is very important.

SKULL.GIF posted:Square-Enix is very bad at the Internet My old account had different passwords at their store and services, turns out the store checks the password in multiple lists, so I ended up being able to log in with two different passwords for the same email, later after I changed my email the store account kept the old one and it was impossible to change without contacting support, and I couldn't change the store password (one of the two), so my (single) account could be accessed and recovered with two different emails and two different passwords.

Has anyone else had their hotbars completely reset? I logged in today after having them be perfectly fine yesterday to see this on a handful of my jobs. Doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason - it struck my RDM main that I didn't notice until I was in a Susano instance, as well as my 70 DRK, and also hit my NIN and MCH, which I haven't played since the expansion dropped. Only thing I can think of is that I made a new character on a different server last night, but I don't get how that'd affect some of my jobs and not others.

Keep in mind that, the iconic Samurai in the Japanese mind is a man filled with arrows like a 300 remake, still holding the line because This Is His Final Service/Ultimate Glory.

Hotbars and keybinds and such are saved locally, so maybe the related files got deleted or corrupted somehow? It's the only thing I can think of there.

I'm really excited for the Omega raid because I have no idea what to expect in there. What is the aesthetic? What will the bosses be? If we assume that O12 will be the fight against Omega, so what is leading to that?

Since it's the interdimensional rift, I'm expecting a bunch of FFV references, and a void conglomeration aesthetic.

Yeah but then they spend a few minutes talking instead of spending those few minutes either A) Running away before they die B) finding a broken beam or something to try to prop the ceiling up. I mean, the couple minutes of exposition wouldn't be so bad if everyone was at least trying to save Gosetsu while he talked and told them to save themselves and let him have his redemptionary sacrifice, but instead they just stand there.
