I wish they would unscrew SMN since I think it has some of the best spell animations in the game :sigh:

One thing I like about BRD is that you can mitigate lovely tanks with your own version of barricade and convalescence :buddy:

Yeah but O2S never puts aoes under random players' feet so it doesn't matter if they stand next to me. In O4S meanwhile I have been killed by people dodging too close to my pillow fort.

Anyway if you wanted to give BLM raid utility it should be by letting BLMs give bosses debuffs to their resistances or outgoing damage somehow, not by buffing other party members.

Yeah, but goons would love to run Coil with you.

If you mean Crystal Tower, queues will be long. I've heard Sunday is better.

What happened to this game? seriously?.

I expected that SB would bring SOMETHING DIFFERENT for END game but no, its just like ARR/HS.

-Daily Trial (The only fun one)
-Expert (Same two dungeons over and over and over and over every single day)
-Log off.

And the most important thing that really made me QUIT like 1 month ago after reaching level 70 full 310.

Why there are so many BAD PLAYERS everywhere? I haven't touch the game in 9 days because m y last experience was terrible;

>Go expert as a FULL I 310 DRK
>Wipe / Wipe / Wipe / Wipe / Wipe
>Leave and eat the 30 minutes penalization.
>Go trial and TITAN hard appears
>Wipe / Wipe / Wipe / Wipe NO BONUS PEOPPLE I mean c'mon?
>ALT +F4 and don't touch the game until now, 9 days later

Hey I remember that I still paying the subscription ;

>Log in and go Trial
>Susano appears
>can't even pass half of his HP because DPS/healers dies on every single step
>Wipe 3 times in a row

I'm betting OF. If a wipe happens in an ex, it's usually the tank or healer being megadumb to the point where I've never wiped in an ex where it wasn't one of those.

I'd be interested to know how you can be bad enough to screw up at Titan Hard these days. My bet is on the OP cleaving the entire raid.

I spent about 45 minutes trying to pass Titan NORMAL a few weeks ago because the healer had a bad ping and refused to stand anywhere but the edge of the arena. Even after I put down a marker directly behind the boss and said "Stand there and don't move"

My static is now in need of one healer (WHM or SCH) and one ranged dps (prefer BRD or MCH but not as picky) for Omega savage. We've cleared O1 and have hit enrage on O2 a few times. Had to skip last week due to real life obligations and are now getting back into the swing of things.

We raid Tues/Wed 7-10 CST but will likely move to Wed/Thurs in a month. Message me in game (Truth Quark, Excalibur) or via PM if you're interested.

I've been playing this game for just over a week now, and I have to say the community is one of the better ones. Maybe it's the sapling icon next to my name, but people are always enthusiastic in offering advise and explaining boss fights patiently. The standout experience so far has been Trials. Ravana & Garuda have such memorable themes, particularly coming from WoW where you just turn off sound during raids.

You have a treat for the most metal 2.0 boss theme that's coming up.

If you just push the issue and set a day that you wanna do it, the thread is likely to respond. Heck, I'll run Coil and Crystal Tower with you. It doesn't take that long.

Crystal Tower stuff will be hard to get a premade group together for cause its 24 man, but DF queues for them are shorter on tuesdays and weekends. You're gonna wait at least 30 minutes to an hour for a pop though. 4.1 is gonna add an alliance raid roulette if you don't manage to get it done before then. The second and third parts of CT are very cool and worth seeing at least once.

Coil will never pop in DF and you want to unsync them anyway, but you can get away with a way smaller group and people are usually way more eager to help out because they're mostly fast and easy undersized.

Before they announced the alliance raid roulette I was thinking about trying to get people together to run a 24-man or two every weekend so we could show them to all the cute newbies. IDK if people would still be interested in that now though.

I think Reddit has had a move towards Crystal Tower Sundays or something, so all the sprouts who want to do it queue on the same day to shorten queue times.

yeah the meter in Rise is preposterous for the verses but it is a requirement to sing "A to the L to the E-X-ander, gobbies gonna rise up, boom like thunder" alongside soken, otherwise your loot won't drop
