I’ve seen the solo tank clears of P2S and it does feel like it’s a lot of extra work for not much gain. Especially since with higher ilvl the enrage is really not an issue anymore.

We have “experiment with solo tanking P2S” as something on our list of things to try after we clear act 2 of the final fight. Right now it isn’t worth the learning curve wipes. Coherence is the big issue as all the tank busters are easy to mitigate. Solo heal P1S is just “stomp eric to the ground” time and is so much faster than anything else.

Are the 2B outfit coffers from the first NieR raid on a daily/weekly lockout or can I attempt for them per run? Then again if I keep getting groups like the one last night that really, really struggled to understand the Engels fight I might not even bother

an AST solo healed the entire raid tier week 1 so clearly we're all just playing suboptimally by bringing multiple healers at all

I stop to do that FATE every single time I'm there and it's available. The team that designs the FATEs in general seems to have a lot of fun with the tongue-in-cheek humor.

Even the other NPCs there are in on the joke. The hardest part of the FATE is pressing the right button while my eyes are glued to the chat window for his incoming banter.

Ah, that'd do it. Any time WAR gets called out I assume Bloodwhetting and completely forgot Holmgang's on a short timer.

Every time I start the game and it sings that song at the starting screen, I'm reminded that we have yet to rush into a chirurgeon's office, be directed to the receptionist's right, speak with the healer and then find our eternally bonded partner crying on the bed.

What's a good glam for SMNs book? Thinking huge book with some effects, but will try anything cool. I'd rather just buy than farm so no need for some extra rare thing in a savage dungeon I'm on Excal if anyone has something

I like the Bluespirit book but it’s not that fancy, just blue crystal. And all the bluespirit weapons don’t dye well if you don’t like blue.

I always like either Byakko or Zurvan's effects on any weapon, and the books are no exception.

Bear in mind, relic grind is still a pretty large timesink and tomestone sink, so it's best done over time using your surplus poetics rather than all at once, barring light farming, so you don't burn yourself out. This will list out the steps, https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Anima_Weapons, but you can also use this just to keep track of where you're at, https://ffxivrelictracker.com Do look into just previewing books off the market-board though. Most dungeon books don't stand out that much outside of the one from Ktisis Hyperboreia, due to their nature of being books, so more likely you can find a decent book off the MB.

Looked around, Word of the Demon works for now. the 90 Classical Index is pretty boring so that's good

Also the Book of the Round or whatever is called, which has a built-in reading light.

The Byakko book is also solid, but harder to glam around because it’s white. I love the ink brush effects for a book weapon, tho.

ZenMasterBullshit posted:I mean if you've built your Buff/CD timers around one specific set of classes then it's a bit tricky to on the fly shuffle for a one night shuffle. Hyper Inferno posted:TBN is a 25% max HP shield, which on a tank is roughly equivalent to 1500 potency worth of HP healing. Oblation is 10% and is probably the fair comparison here because DRK gets it at 82 alongside all the other tanks getting their upgraded short cd and duration defensives at that level as well.  GNB's party and personal mitigation are as bad as DRK (which is why their personal DPS is also higher than PLD/WAR), but superbolide doesn't demand your healers heal you to full or else. It's really problematic that the clearly best tank (WAR) and clearly worst tank (DRK) are actually the best and worst at all levels. DRK is not just worse in dungeons which "don't matter", it's also a little worse than all the other tanks if you're trying to prog savage content and they at least need LD to be fixed. There are lots of ways to make it not suck rear end and square just needs to pick one. My favorite idea is you get healed to full after taking lethal damage OR you can use it as a rez on another party member. and speaking as a WAR main, bloodwhetting would still be a fine ability if it didn't trigger more than once per attack, the current implementation is just insane.

Just a heads up for anyone else that missed it in the latest announcement about the Live Letter: There won't be any live translation this time. It'll all be in Japanese, except the slides that will have both Japanese and English. The last time I watched one that was Japanese only I kept an eye on the Nova Crystallis Twitter account since it seemed they did a decent job with their own semi-live translations. Is there anything else I should check out?
