Even better, it's a debuff which raise immunity gives you immunity to, so if someone is raised on top of the bulwark it just immediately and permanently disappears. (This happens in the NEST 10S video.)

So I've been meaning to ask about FF14, as I've been trying to get back into Final Fantasy as of late, and after bouncing off the WOW starter trial edition a couple of times, I thought maybe FF14 might be worth a shot, since it sounds like there's a lot more to do outside of combat. However, from what I read earlier today, it sounds like the game's future is in question (the director's leaving, and the next DLC was cancelled?)

Why am I level 49 in Eureka I'm a guy, I don't need the silly hair. The fire goodbye mount isn't bad, but I can live without it. I think Logos is overly convoluted and dumb Bunnies take me to my death more often than to good treasure It's gonna take loving forever to get 400 more Pyros crystals, and then I still have the light phase. What... What am I doing with my life? I can stop at any time, so why don't I? Help, Yoshida

Pyros isn't outright terrible. That's about the most praise I can give it though since filling out the Logos actionsdex is made unnecessarily annoying by top tier logograms seemingly only coming from gold bunny chests. And certain ones being almost impossible to farm after you level past the sprites that drop them (mitigative, fundamental).

now that i've gotten MCH up to higher levels (67) and i get to see more of its buttons firsthand, the amount of plates you have to spin to cram everything into a 10 second window is absolutely ridiculous why do i keep playing this class mostly just mad i need to keep reapplying gauss barrel when it falls off tbh, that really should be something that's just on at all times

You know, I was seriously considering raiding again (lapsed after Gordias and never returned), But then I read last page’s dissertation on the Hello World mechanic Nah, I think that is far above anything I am capable of, so I guess I’m on baby raids forever

Baby raids are still quite fun! This is the first time I’ve been current with the endgame, and I loved Alphascape normal.

MechaX posted:You know, I was seriously considering raiding again (lapsed after Gordias and never returned), Remember it's a dissertation because I'm taking a high-altitude approach to explaining the whole thing, which is helpful but can be overwhelming. When you're actually on the ground in the middle of it, 3/4 of what I wrote doesn't even apply to you. As a tank, I don't need to know everything a healer or dps has to do in HW; all I have to do is look at my debuff bar to see which pattern I got and then take appropriate actions when necessary. It's easy, and recommended, to use the very visible attack animations going out in the phase as triggers for when you need to move as well. Every fight in this tier is super good and fun to progress through. If you were going to dip your toes into Savage raiding again, this is the tier for it, by far.

Hello World is still baby peanuts compared to anything Pepsiman did. This isn't necessarily due to the complexity of the mechanics themselves, but more due to the amount of throughput required while doing the mechanics for on-ilv Pepsiman, and the comparatively worse netcode at the time making things inconsistent in firing off. If you did Gordias, any 4.x savage should look trivial to you. (And the diagrams make HW more complicated than it actually is. You really can just zoom in on your role, and everything lines up so long as markers are correctly placed.)

MechaX posted:You know, I was seriously considering raiding again (lapsed after Gordias and never returned), Its evil when you take the full scope of it, on a person by person level its not as much to take in. I'm a tank so the following happens: As Hello, World casts, i prepare convalescence and divine veil, then passage of arms. As it hits, I break my passage of arms with sprint and then, depending on Red or Blue, the following: If red, I wait for the scholar to deploy off me, then move to the correct spot and detonate. Then provoke omega and drag him to a preset point. The other tank then takes him back and my part of Hello, World ends in the preset safe spot. If blue, I provoke omega, drag towards the set spot, run to catch the other tank's explosion while shirking to them, go to my assigned spot, detonate and then my parts over and I run to the preset safe spot. Then I reprisal the Ion Efflux that Omega ends Hello, World with. Hello, World 2 has an extra quirk with rot, but nothing much changes outside of making sure I get it if I'm blue and running inside omega's hitbox to explode the rot safely after its past. Its just... like this or more per player, and everyone has to do the dance perfectly. No room for recovery if you flub it. Thyrork fucked around with this message at 19:45 on Nov 9, 2018 |

I may have made a terrible mistake. But I'm still going to ride this train all the way to the station. But yeah, SKS values that cause things to not line up inside a mch's Wildfire window will just straight gently caress you out of a ton of damage.

Got more where this comes from but: The 1-3-0-4 strategy for Hello, World 1 animated. Between a text write up, this, and seeing it for yourself it's intimidating but understandable. Promise. And even that is a broad guideline, as a tank I stand more where omega is before error casts and run to C after.

So, I'm really curious about how to make my DPs better. In O9S right now, I met a RDM with worse gear than I (theirs: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/1344716/ , mine : https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/14683462/ ) and yet they were fully able to keep up with my DPS and surpass it quite a lot during the entire fight. Looking at the entire logs, I am not sure what I could do better or how I could potentially improve. Please help me goons. xihanalysis; Theirs: https://xivanalysis.com/analyse/krWhfpR7LPjJ4xbc/7/13/ Mine: https://xivanalysis.com/analyse/krWhfpR7LPjJ4xbc/7/11/ From ACC; Theirs:  Mine:  It should be noted that they had 175 hits according to ACC, while I have 163. There's certainly something more I could be doing. Edit: It should be noted that I play on NA from EU, so I do experience a lot of latency.

I'm glad I'm not the only coward too scared to displace during the majority of the fight. e: two quick things: -You have two instances of trying to fit fleche + manafication + corps a corps in between a gcd, which you really don't have to do. corps a corps can be used in between melee combos. -90% GCD uptime could be pushed higher. I skimmed through the fflogs replay and caught an instance of a cast being interrupted during Earthquake phase - no idea if that's something that happens a lot, but as you get more comfortable with the fight you should be able to premove to places you need to stand next and not have to interrupt casts to execute mechanics. I'm a stupid idiot and xivanalysis called me out for nine major issues in two categories, but I still kept my GCDs rolling. Vitamean fucked around with this message at 22:56 on Nov 9, 2018 |
