Vermain posted:What's your current level? Every healer struggles to a certain extent with the 41-50 bump, and a lot of Heavensward leveling content gets speedrun by synced tanks, which can end up chewing through your mana if you're undergeared compared to the dungeon's ilvl. Also to kind of expand on this, Healing in FFXIV isn't like healing in wow, where you just spend your time spamming your highest efficiency spell with a couple emergency cooldowns. You're meant to be relying on your highly efficient cooldowns like Indom, Lustrate, Whispering Dawn, etc, and only using your GCD healing when it's needed. Adlo is wicked expensive, and the main reason you'd use it is to prevent a specific instance of lots of damage on the tank or a party member, like a tankbuster or single person bomb, or because it's a BIG pull and your fairy can't keep up with rouse on and you're out of Aetherflow (this situation is usually either the tank is pulling above their pay grade or you messed up and used too many energy drains, we've all been there). This applies across the other healers, too, although regen/aspected benefic are much more usable. WHM in dungeons should really be using Tetra, Assize, etc along with regens to keep people up, and you spend your GCDs on damage spells, and AST is the same but essential dignity and aspected benefic instead. It's a just an adjustment to your way of thinking to make healing make a lot more sense later on. You don't save cooldowns, you plan them out and maximize using them. In any given dungeon if all of your cooldowns are up during a pull you're making it much harder for yourself. If you want to try out savage content, you and your cohealer will work out which of you will use which cooldowns where to maximize both of your dps uptimes. If you've been doing that all along, you'll fall right into it easy peasy.

I'm about to hit 70 and finish the msq. What's the best/easiest/fastest way to gear up for plowing all the 4.x content afterwards? I'll try to get through all the raids trials and dungeons (and Eureka?) over the next month, but I won't be aiming for any ultra hard mode stuff. Basically just want to see and experience All the Things before Shadowbringers hits.

That's where I am right now and I'm loving it. It's just really weird getting the timing down on how to overheat correctly. Everything in this game seems to have a weird delay when I wanna hit multiple buttons quickly, is there some sort of animation lock or something?

Everything in this game seems to have a weird delay when I wanna hit multiple buttons quickly, is there some sort of animation lock or something? If you do overheat and didn't time it perfectly with Wildfire (which is an exercise in frustration without Flamethrower), you can spam Cooldown the whole time for decent damage, since Cooldown gets its high-heat bonus if you're overheating. Once you get Flamethrower you can, hypothetically, time your Wildfire with Overheat, but I found FT intensely irritating so I switched classes.

Vermain posted:You're also at the game's second big hump for healers. Bardam's is a pain for most healers, and it absolutely loving sucks for SCH: you have no AoE stuns to slow down incoming damage like AST and WHM do, nor do you have their raw throughput options at that level. Ensuring Eos is manually controlled and using Aetherflow wisely will definitely help, but Bardam's will always make you feel like you're running on fumes. Honestly I'd like to run Summoner more to level them both, but those DPS queues are murder, too.

FactsAreUseless posted:There is an animation lock, and don't worry about overheat. If you drop wildfire at high heat (after first using Rapid Fire and Reassemble), you can go Clean, Ricochet, Slug, Clean, Cooldown, possible second Cooldown if you got your timings realllll tight. Your goal during Wildfire is to maximize the potency you use during it, and having some heat for Cooldown means not having to go back and fish for procs on Split. Otherwise, Cooldown and Barrel Stabilizer should keep you between 50-95 in most fights, and that's a big damage increase. Cool, this is mostly what I've been doing it's just frustrating some part of my brain not having wildfire and overheat line up 100% on my rotation. Now that I've got Barrel Stabilizer the post-overheat part of my rotation is so much better.

Everything in this game seems to have a weird delay when I wanna hit multiple buttons quickly, is there some sort of animation lock or something? It's a combination of animation lock and latency. Each action in the game has an animation that cannot be interrupted (with a minimum time of 0.7s, or 1.2s for consumables like potions), and a period of latency for the overwhelming majority of actions (since the game doesn't have enough clientside protection to discourage packet spoofing). If your latency is good (around sub-70ms ping without much packet loss), you can fit in two off-GCD actions between each GCD; if it's bad, you can only fit in one. The rotation and opener for MCH changes depending on whether you've got good or bad latency, so it's worthwhile to do some tests with ACT or Stone, Sea, Sky using both openers/rotations to determine which is better if you don't know your connection quality offhand.

rantmo posted:Another newbie leveling question: I've got my main job in the low 40's and I'm leveling along at a good clip with the duty roulette and just running through ARR stuff but my tank classes, for example, are both at level 11 and so I can't start Dutying them up. What's the best way to push them to 15? Hunting logs and FATEs as I run by them or is there another trick for it? Throw in guildhests and random low level sidequests. Honestly even grinding mobs gives decent XP at such low levels. (The galaxy brain strat is to find the highest level mobs your main job can one-shot and use the job-switching trick.)

Fairy + Lustrate will take you extremely far. Also you don't need to top off the tank: they can safely hover around half HP most of the time. Also, people sometimes talk about fishing for a crit Adlo to spread with Deployment Tactics before the pull, and while that's very powerful it's never necessary in a leveling dungeon and I personally feel it would be a waste of time/MP.

Crit Deployed Adlos do make Hello World easier

One other thing to note about Adlo that's not immediately obvious: because of latency, the actual shield from Adloquium doesn't take effect until about 1.5-2s after the spell actually lands. Lustrate/Excog should be your go-to for emergency healing, with Adlo used to either soak an incoming tankbuster or to provide more leeway for your fairy after the tank's in the clear.BrightWing posted:Crit Deployed Adlos do make Hello World easier It's definitely worth fishing in situations where there's a high probability of your group taking lethal damage from mechanics without it, but those scenarios are mostly relegated to Savage-level content.

And even beyond that, you can do savage just fine without crit adlos. They're too unpredictable because SCH can't force an adlo crit on, say, a 60 second cooldown, but the very high end groups will sometimes fish for an adlo crit spread to soak a mechanic they normally wouldn't in order to get more LB gauge.

Also you don't need to top off the tank: they can safely hover around half HP most of the time. In any given dungeon, a spread critlo on a boss fight is less than worthless. Very few of them will do damage to anyone not the tank in the first 30 seconds. If I adlo a tank and happen to get a crit in a dungeon, that's when I'll spread it. It's not very often, and the only real exception I can think of is cheesing rathalos, but gently caress that fight anyway. Hell, even in savage content there are fights where your opener doesn't even include succor because there's no point. LITERALLY MY FETISH fucked around with this message at 23:41 on May 8, 2019 |

I was mostly just hoping with the Scions completely hosed by 'throw-wide-the-gates-catboy' that she'd take a more prominent role in holding the line in Eorzea while we're gone (and that maybe we'd hear a tease--still hopeful this is the direction they go). I'm not worried that she's going to be disappeared or anything. Her and Yotsuyu were really two sides of the same coin in Stormblood, and I'm eager to see more of her story.
