AST doesn't get Gravity until 52. With cross class abilities gone that is our only AoE of any kind. Also card abilities only start at 30.

I don't understand how this could be causing so many problems anyway, they already have actions that are exclusive to a given job, and traits that are job exclusive, so there's nothing stopping them from shifting which skills come before and after the job upgrade and using traits to adjust damage/healing values Also, I like to at least cast succor once or twice to get the green buff icons up in the party list and remind my party that I exist and I can even Fortuitous Bumble fucked around with this message at 22:45 on Jul 19, 2017 |

The latter doesn't matter though because AST is a WHM with renamed skills below 30. The former does matter however due to the number of dungeons designed with aoe mobs to mow down. (50dr has a ton)

essential dignity is hilarious in like satasha story, you can actually just remove benefic from your bar because ED is basically benediction on a 40s cooldown at that level

I'm at work so I can't check myself, do Au Ra men have any face options that aren't covered in scales or are they pretty much all like that? Lalafell is already wearing thin, and I've never made an Au Ra.

Face, facial scales, and horns being tied together makes Au Ra customization kinda disappointing.

SCH update: thanks for the advice regarding focusing on OCD spells. turns out previously i may have been hoarding aetherflow but once i embraced that dissipation it something of an "oh poo poo" button things made sense.

Thanks for the confirmation about LB usage. It was a weird dungeon run all around, actually The PGL complaining about my blowing up adds was mostly just the cherry on top. The worst part is, I've only ever gotten Tam Tara Deepcroft (out of the maybe five duties I have unlocked) from the leveling roulette in the four days I've had roulette available.

Hm, so, what guidance do you have on when and how to use Miasma II. Do I spam when when there's a group of mobs and I have MP to spare?

At 2 mobs it will deal more damage than broil 2, if the dot deals at least 3 seconds (or one tick) of damage. On 3 mobs, spamming the initial hit will do more damage than broil 2.

It's a good time to level crafters if you're still lingering on it. There's a flood of cheap material on the marketboard thanks to idiots in a race to the bottom as they all undercut each other by 10% each time. Thanks, canals! I'm talking like, orishigane ingots going from 15k each to 2k each. Feels good to finish a leve for 20% of the level for the small fee of 5k gil!

I wonder how people are having such bad luck with getting their Omega items. I've been doing Omega 100% with pubbies all 3 weeks and I've never had to do a boss more than twice any of the weeks and I've always gone after a specific item per boss. The "pass on everything but the item you want to remove people from the loot pool" strategy works fairly well.

Have you had any trouble with other people following the same strategy and the loot going to timer? It's definitely not something that works if everybody does it.

Ciaphas posted:Ninja feels loving great to play though, especially for a melee class. Except Shukuchi, I still can't use that very well. I find the trick is to have it tied to a macro that skips the aiming part of the power. Mine either moves you to your target, or to a target you're moused over but people probably have their own preferred variations.

Yeah I've been using a <t> macro but it has proven less than ideal, especially with bigger enemies; Shukuchi <t> wants to take you to the target's center, so you could be like two steps from melee range before Shukuchi will go for some of the really big customers. I might try <mo> though. I got really used to doing that for Aetherial Manipulation back in the day, maybe it'll apply here as long as I'm not the first party member back into the fray after an AOE or whatever.

Apparently one of those mobs acts like the first boss of sastasha hard and does tail screw??? and he got creamed instantly the second I hit my first miasma. Thought something was fishy cuz i'm ilvl 257, not that far undergeared. Through the whole dungeon the dude never used a tank CD except a rampart twice. I did get to play with dissipate and lustrate a bunch, practiced the advice in here from earlier to not blow adlos on everything although I did use succor too much in boss AOEs a few times before remembering I had emergency tactics.

SilverSupernova posted:Not sure if someone posted a video of it yet, but Omega V4S's transition, man. This poo poo is hype. If they were going to stick with V throughout I don't think they'd have used Exdeath so early. Personally I'm hoping for an VIII themed Omega segment. Edea (or possibly Seifer), Adel, Griever and Ultimecia seem like they'd make good raid bosses.

The tail screw on that mob is a normal damage aoe circle, not the boss ability. It just shares a name. More than zero succors is probably too much in the leveling dungeons when you have one of indom and whispering dawn every thirty seconds. Either people are eating extra damage or you're healing people to full when you could have let the fairy do it. nuru fucked around with this message at 02:02 on Jul 20, 2017 |
