Aquapolis is the courting dance with Lady Luck, only her favorite drink is your disappointment. Bartender! A drink for the lovely lady if you please!?

Goddamn for 10k or less that's basically free money. Everyone should do a few rounds in the 'polis.

SL the Pyro posted:I once saw a Susano EX group with a hypercompetent healer who told us not to give a poo poo about the lightning markers and would consistently throw out 10k+ heals so we could just keep wailing on the boss. treating the lightning markers as an extra-wild ukehi phase is fun as hell, but i wouldn't recommend it for random groups. also it's pretty easy to heal unless someone forgets a cooldown on assail/stormsplitter and gets imploded from 100% with low maxhp

I'm starting to think that materia prices are going to get hosed on Tuesday. I know plenty of people are hoarding cracked clusters (myself included) and if Lost Canals vomits materia as much as Aquapolis, I'm thinking that we will see far far more supply than demand.

SwissArmyDruid posted:And then the other tank is so incompetent that as soon as they provoke for Stormsplitter, they completely annihilate your work in perfectly positioning the boss. To be fair Susanoo is really picky about positioning, even if you're standing directly on the targeting circle he'll decide to walk forward a few inches.

At the bottom of Aquapolis, occasionally the chest will contain 65 green cherries that rot upon leaving the instance. There may also be a non-hostile yeti there doing the moogle dance. There have been no instances where they have both existed in that room at the same time.

So WHMs, is there more to knowing when to use Medica (2) or Cure 3 than "are people clumped y/n"?

Ciaphas posted:So WHMs, is there more to knowing when to use Medica (2) or Cure 3 than "are people clumped y/n"? Honestly Cure 3 is of really limited use. You use Cure 3 if a group of people who need healing are clumped up in a tight circle and not much else. Due to the nature of large group damage Medica/2 see infinitely more use.

I'm not a great whm but I think the situations for the three aoe heals are: Medica--use when there isn't any more raidwide damage incoming, nobody is more than moderately damaged, and assize's cooldown isn't coming off soon Medica 2--use when you need a lot of healing but people aren't clumped, or when there's more damage incoming so the hot matters Cure 3--use when everybody is very damaged, they're clumped, and there's no more damage incoming Medica 2 you obviously don't want to use if the hot is already up so swap it out for one of the other two if you would use it again

SJW Forum? I got temp-banned on the forum for posting in a thread that was related to The Lochs being congested. This makes me more upset I tried to voice my opinion about the issue. Is it my fault the forum mods are as butthurt as I am? Don't we pay a sub to get functionality out of this game? Then to temp-ban for something as frivolous as this is really, really sad. Thread Title: Please Fix MSQ Relevant sections from the FINAL FANTASY XIV Forum Guidelines: Use of inappropriate or aggressive language. Posting aimed to create a negative impact on the community or its members. Content in Violation of the FINAL FANTASY XIV Forum Guidelines: I've been trying to get in for loving 3 hours now to catch up MSQ and still can't because the zone is congested. Really annoying...

I'm literally not sure if I've ever casted cure 3 and I regularly forget that it's even on my castbar. Between Medica 2 and Assize I rarely even bother with Medica 1, much less Cure 3. Please note, i'm a mediocre healer who avoids difficult content, but even with that disclaimer I feel like I'm in good company with my cure 3 neglect

How long after each primal patch did they bump bird drop rates and add their mounts to the vendors? Wondering if I should bother saving up totems now or if it'll be some poo poo that drops way later in the patch cycle where it'll just be easier to go punch susex/lakex in a farm group for a few hours to get the mount.

I'd assume that a large percentage of people are sitting on at least 5-10 clusters. I would also venture to guess that Lost Canals will also give out a decent supply of (random) VI's. I just question what the demand will be versus the supply.

Ciaphas posted:So WHMs, is there more to knowing when to use Medica (2) or Cure 3 than "are people clumped y/n"? Cure 3 is more instantly applied healing than Medica 2 with 3 people in range and better than Medica 1 with 5 people. Cure 3 is more instantly applied healing per mana spent than Medica 2 with 4 people in range and better than Medica 1 with 6 people. Medica 1 is always both higher potency and more mana efficient as an instant heal than Medica 2. If you don't need the HoT, use Medica 1. Medica 2 breaks even with Medica 1 on healing potency after 6 seconds, passes it at 9, if everyone is benefiting from the regen (ie not at full health when it ticks). Medica 2 breaks even with Medica 1 on mana efficiency after 12 seconds, passes it at 15, if everyone is benefiting from the regen (ie not at full health when it ticks). On a single target (e.g. tank in a 4-man dungeon), using both Medica 2 and Regen instead of just Regen increases your regen-based healing by 33% and the mana cost of maintaining regens on tnak by 162%. At level 70, the two casts of Medica 2 per minute cost 4080 mana, the equivalent of casting Cure 1 on the tank every 8.8 seconds. Waci fucked around with this message at 22:43 on Jul 14, 2017 |

I remember when my group was doing Sephirot EX when it was current we'd have our WHM Cure 3 after double jumps and after Ratzon because he'd do his triple Tiferet afterwards and that's a lot of raidwide.

If nothing else it's fun having ~1600 crit, ~1300 DH, and SS/Det both above 1100 all at once. Also I welcome a market crash and an ample supply of materia VI for all.

Cure 1 can eat my butthole until it gives 💯% chance to get lillies. Plenary Indulgence is frustrating as hell when you can't get it to fire and OH WAIT THOSE ARE SOMEONE ELSES CONFESSION STACKS GG.

My Susano Story: Some goons helped me clear it and it wasn't all that tight. It took a couple of tries because a few of us were new and needed to grasp certain positioning mechanics. My Aquapolis Story: I went in by myself, saw "Synced to 180? That's sorta w-" and then immediately got killed in the first treasure room by a swarm of enemies. So overall pretty great.
