Man it's really dumb how much of a difference dragoon makes, but one guy in my static decided to go on it tonight for O5S and O6S, and I 95th and shot up to second on server Bard for Chadarnook. Tethered only once too, in the opener. 82nd with a death on Phantom Train, but I was dumb and completely glazed over a Demonic Whistle cast so I was knocked off.

ApplesandOranges posted:I really want to be good at MCH since I love the aesthetic, but I have such terrible tunnel vision when playing it. It's not nearly as bad as Heavensward, but Wildfire periods feel like the system is playing me, rather than me using the system to adapt like with MNK. It's just a question of practice. These days I just autopilot through Wildfires on muscle memory alone, and that's also pretty much mandatory since in savage content you'll often be doing some dumb boss mechanic with a lot of movement while also Wildfiring at the same time. MCH, much like BRD, is more about ignoring the system entirely and just doing your thing as long as the boss doesn't leave.

Bolow posted:Can I be mad online about a single pile of loving cherry blossom leaves costing $5 meanwhile you can get 2 trees and a picnic blanket for $10. Man, I'm still kicking myself over the cherry trees. A few years ago during an event you could get tradeable versions ingame, took about 10 minutes each to get one. So I got the 3 trees that have adorned my yard ever since, and called it a day. Those trees go for 25m each on the MB these days. I could have gotten so many more trees for little effort.

At least you got some. But honestly Death’s Fingers aren’t too bad of a poor man’s replacement, especially if you have enough slots to stack them up to make the leaves thicker.

There's low level armor that is like, a chest piece combined with a helmet. I'm guessing that you can't glamour it very well? Does anyone know/have tried it?

The double-slot armor glamours just fine. You won't be able to glam something on your head slot, naturally, but if you want to put the tin can (or the cloth cowl) on, you can.

Rastan Beeza posted:Tell me about the worst or funniest dungeon/DR you've ever run, goons Copperbell Mines. I'm running it with my two friends IRL who are all over at my place on their laptops and a rando tank. The tank is this completely average-looking hyur and has this hilariously like generic real life name. I don't want to out him so think like "Richard Thompson" or "Todd Johnson." He is the slowest puller in the world. Before every pull. He stops, looks at each enemy (I could see him targeting each one-by-one) and then turns around and looks at us, apparently making sure we're in position. Only then does he pull. If you pull before him, he refuses to tank and just stands there for the entire fight. So Copperbell is already super long and this makes it take forever with all this downtime as Richard Thompson slowly guides us through the dungeon. My friends and I invent this elaborate backstory for Richard Thompson that he became a tank to impress his high school sweetheart that fell out of love with him after he was injured in a football game and his team lost state. Unfortunately, this didn't work so he spends his days slowly grinding Copperbell, seeing her face in the eyes of his enemies, causing him no end of anguish. We get to the last boss and right before we start I say, "Cheer up, Richard. Maybe with this final battle you'll finally impress her and win back her heart." He responds with the first thing he's said in chat the entire time "what the gently caress does that mean" and he stands outside the arena and, apparently, refuses to come in. I say, "Oh I didn't mean anything by it. I was just being goofy," but he doesn't come in and doesn't say anything else. Finally my friend who is a dragoon pulls and tanks the fight as we beat it. Richard stands outside the arena the entire time. At the end he says "fuckin weirdos playing this game" and leaves. And gave me a commendation  Edit: just looked him up on lodestone, Richard is now a level 63 paladin wearing a level 18 bracelet and a brand-new ring Rosalind fucked around with this message at 17:55 on Feb 28, 2018 |

Dungeon runs typically go smooth for me, except for that one run of The Vault that I did where the other DPS ran towards me while some kind of damage mechanic was going off and killed us both. The other DPS warps back to the start without waiting for a raise and the Tank tells the Healer to use Swiftcast, with the implication of raising me. The Healer uses Swiftcast Physick and the Tank has to drop Charibert's remaining HP alone.

I was running Hell's Lid (is that what it's called I'm horrible about names) with a sprout 70 WHM and holy crap they were playing their heart out. Practically ignored the tank to DPS. The tank and I both made sure to let them know to keep that up and they're awesome.

It's been a while since I looked real closely at a parse of the level 50 rotation (or ACT in general), but for 23% of damage being fire 3 I'm assuming there was a fair number used. IIRC the majority of you damage is supposed to come from fire 1. Now, if you see this parse, you should run for the god drat hills:

MelvinBison posted:What was the bug? You could use the command mission LB, Ungarmax, outside of command missions in any duty. It only cost a single LB bar and gave a 50% damage buff to your entire group for 15s. You could use it to make savage content and the like trivial.

i mean, it made the dps check trivial and allowed good groups to skip mechanics, but it wasn't going to stop you from wiping in the first like 30 seconds of god kefka if your healers were bad

Yep, factor in that the healer casting ungarmax frees up one of your dps from having to lb during a burn phase and using one bar meant every dps check of a fight could be trivialized. That there's yet another exploitable command being accepted by the server without any kind of validation is almost expected at this point considering SE's track record. What was interesting is Yoshi-p specifically calling out the complete disconnect between the dev team and GMs that were supposedly letting this slide for over 4 months. We already know that there's nearly zero up-channel communication from the regional support teams to the Japanese management (most famously illustrated by the guy whose account was banned due to a billing error on SE's part and given the run-a-round for months which finally required pleading to Yoshi personally at a fanfest q&a before corrective action was taken). Hopefully we'll find out in the end if the NA staff was ignoring a bug, or the NA staff themselves were being ignored.

For the Warp thing at least, keep in mind it's only abusable in the English client, since in French, German and Japanese the Warp skill has the same name as the Return skill.
