Just want to double check, does Excogitation save tanks from going 50+->0 in one hit or do they die without the heal going off? I'm guessing they die.

Thought so! Thanks. Within one or two Abania's of hitting 70 on SCH. I guess it wasn't that bad to level, really, but I think I prefer WHM, at least for stuff I've tried in Stormblood (AST is still 60 and I stopped WHM at 64 for some reason). At least getting 70 SMN means I'm done with caster DPS and can clear out all my 'of Casting' leveling crap for seals

Interesting thing about Primals and mechanic failures, Ifrit will spam his deathblow repeatedly if you survive the first hit.

So will Twintania, which is how you cheese the fight for solo unsync: be a healer, wait for her to enrage, and then just heal through it because it doesn't do that much damage.

And the ADS in Turn 2! People were cheesing that back in 2.x: you could either read a research paper on how to handle Allagan Rot and hope everyone else knew how it worked, or you could wait for enrage and spam Medica II/Succor a lot. Four years later and I still have no idea how you're supposed to do that fight properly.

You pass the rot along your party members in a chain one by one through all 8 people. You just stood in a spot and let someone come to you. After that you walked over to someone else and then walked back to your spot. Repeat until boss is dead.

'uigi' isn't a single syllable so it breaks the scheme unless you use it like Count Bleck did.

It's sort of a crapshoot to determine what will or will not just straight up kill you when doing things unsynced. Fail Ramuh's DPS check? Judgment Bolt instafries you. Fail to hit the elemental converter for Levi's Tidal Wave? lolwhocares

Ramuh's Shock Bolt tankbuster also goes through Hallowed Ground and every damage reduction CD that isn't doing the mechanic correctly. Which at current health pools is survivable until he casts them back to back.

Swear I've been in multiple WT groups which have wiped to Tidal Wave because of getting the converter timing wrong (and many other groups which have wiped because they burned too fast, of course). Haven't done it since Stormblood came out, though.

The tanks will come out with about 1/4 of their HP left. Everyone else is dead. I know this, because I soloed Leviathan for WT last night after everyone else pushed 55% way too goddamn fast.

Having completed the 2.0 story, I am suddenly overwhelmed by the sheer amount of things to do. I have a lot of stuff to unlock, I have the Heavensward lead up, lots of classes I want to try, I probably should level crafting, the beast tribe stuff, and there's probably a lot of miscellaneous stuff that I don't even know about.

Burn the MSQ until it gets tedious and then go off and do Hildabrand or anything that you're interested in doing outside of watching cutscenes.

My experience was soloing Leviathan unsynced as a 70 PLD so that's probably why I had that experience. I didn't remember it doing that much damage but who knows. Other things that aren't instakills: Titan Gaols, Twintania Conflags, Allagan Rot (although it can crit and that is a terrifying experience).

I just learned this game has PvP. How is it? I know nothing about it really, but looking for an MMO that has a strong PvP side to it.

Pro: The game has separated PVE values from PVP values so that they can be balanced separately Pro: Stats are purely a function of your job, and any traits you may take. Gear is purely a glamour reward. Con: There is kind of a bot problem that needs dealing with.

The queue times can be kinda fickle for pvp depending on how much it rewards you outside of it. If the outside exp gain wasn't as good as it is, pvp would be a ghost town.
