i've run into a glut of dps in ldr just...barely dpsing, at all. yesterday i had a lancer (who was new) who would run into packs and just spam heavy thrust. today, i had two dps who would stand still for like 2 minutes after each pull while also criticizing each other for taking so long to get to the pulls. i don't really care because i was on drk and my aoe was going to be way better than theirs, but it was still super bizarre.

Rainuwastaken posted:Have we met the person in charge of Kugane? It's separate from Doma so... Kugane isn't a city-state like the ones in Eorzea, it's just the only city in the country of Hingashi where foreigners are allowed to visit and trade. All we know about the government of Hingashi is that it's a military government called the Bakufu, which took power after a long and bloody period of civil war. It's basically 1:1 analogous with Edo period Japan, so they probably have a figurehead emperor and a shogun as the de facto leader. Hopefully this will get fleshed out in later patches.

it's also a major plot point in the SAM storyline that the bakufu is corrupt as gently caress and everyone hates it, but most people go along with it anyway because it beats the hell out of another massive horrific war

Verranicus posted:It's probably because I associate it with growing up, but I still think XI had a better and catchier soundtrack than XIV. Not to say XIV's is bad by any means, but the zone and town (and even PlayOnline) music from XI is stuff I'll still find myself humming occasionally while with XIV I really only love a few of the trial or dungeon themes. it's been like ten years and my body still reacts when I hear the Vana'diel March and this probably explains a lot about my extremely broken brain

I like the Sam 50-60 quests because when a roe dude walks out holding his katana in the reverse grip idle pose that all dude roes and dude au ra use your wise master insults the guy for holding his weapon in such an undignified way. Potentially while the WoL is standing there with exactly the same pose if the player choose a sub optimal, non-catgirl race.

So Pre-26 as a Lancer do I just keep up the Heavy Thrust buff and spam impulse drive? Or do I True/Vorpal while maintaining the buff? It probably doesn't matter for poo poo but it's bugging me

I'm also kind of confused on telegraphs. If I get out before the telegraph disappears do I avoid the damage, or do I have to wait for the attack animation to play out as well?

Don't even bother with Impulse Drive or its followup, Disembowel, until you get to 50 and get the third part of the combo, Chaos Thrust. Bolow posted:I'm also kind of confused on telegraphs.

The animations themselves won't hurt you and it looks badass to stand in them.

Just the telegraph. With extremely few exceptions, you'll be fine as long as you're clear of the telegraph even if you stand in the animation.

I can think of exactly one dungeon boss that harms you if you walk back into the animation after the telegraph (the flame ship in keeper of the lake) so suffice it to say, when it happens, it's a boss gimmick Note that eventually you fight bosses who do aoe effects without telegraphs but that's a separate thing

There are plenty of other telegraphs that leave poo poo on the ground that you generally don't want to stand in. But as far as the initial attack goes, you're fine as long as you're outside of the lines when the cast bar resolves.

Man, that thing just brutally mercs people with his 1000 tonze-swing that doesn't do the telegraph.

They're all correct, but the most-correct answer is, "Are you out of the telegraph before the cast bar finishes?" If yes, then you're safe. If not, you just got hit.

I don't think you'll run into any for a while but gaze attacks (does damage or effect if player is facing caster) work a bit differently. To avoid gaze you have to be physically facing another way until the attack is cast. However if you turn around too soon such as immediately after castbar finishes, you will most likely get hit. To play it safe you should wait until the attack's damage value/dodge notification appears before turning back. For regular AOE markers just run back in or use your gap closer ability as soon as the attack is cast. It feels boss as dps to get back in action while stuff explodes around you.

Disembowel is worth doing for the piercing debuff even at lower levels. You get it before you have any aoe so it helps while single targeting everything down.

I like how the game reuses the general model of enemies like that. You can safely expect any cyclops or similar model to use the same one-handed and two-handed unmarked attacks.
