When repositioning Hesperos during Pinax I'll say to myself "red and blue" a few times to get me to charge that direction without thinking.

Bloody Pom posted:The mythic keystone thing is something I wouldn't mind them stealing from WoW honestly, just so long as it's kept as fun side content and doesn't become the new endgame. Yeah, same. Doesn't need to be a 1:1 translation just something in the same vein. That's literally the only part of WoW end game that I think is worth a drat tho

Bloody Pom posted:Am I masochistic for wanting them to add savage alliance raids? I have had thoughts about savage versions of each of the fights for Aglaia. Some of them monstrously mean because I actually liked mythic raiding in WoW. The main one is for boss 4 using debuffs so that one party fights an add, one party does above, and one party does below mechanics. Parties swap every minute (and a new add spawns). Dps check, positioning check, vision check all in one minute packages. Yes you would have to do the balance thing with the add every minute and it needs to be dead for that to work. Failing the balance kills the party instead of wiping the raid though, to be nice.

They already have a savage massive raid - DRS

Mr. Nice! posted:They already have a savage massive raid - DRS Yeah but DR is janky and the two hit get a doom debuff sucks and it uses extra abilities and you cannot rez. Note I actually like the thing but it is not comparable to savage alliance raids in terms of what people are asking for.

a savage alliance raid sounds miserable an extreme-level alliance raid sounds maybe cool though

I will never get used to randomly getting multiple comms from strangers in 24 mans as a DPS. Just got 3 comms as a Summoner and I'm just like "??? I died twice through this run what did I do to deserve praise? I didn't even res anyone."

I will comm someone if I recognize their name on the comm screen. So either they did something cool or had cool glams or were the friendliest in chat, or they were the only other option because in the time it took me to watch the cutscene everyone else bailed.

^^lol^^ I can't even imagine how many of my comms are because I waited for everyone else to leave the instance

There have definitely been times where I was all ready to commend someone, but they left before I could even get the commendation window open.
|
# ? May 12, 2022 06:55 |

I just commend whoever's left at random. If I died a lot it'll be one of the healers (because I've forgotten which one ressed me).

Commending takes too many clicks at the end so I often don't bother

Bruceski posted:That's how you do it. Eventually it becomes second nature (you'll still screw up sometimes, and P2S can cascade easily). i jumped into p3s today and honestly the first half ain't bad at all the mid-fight adds phase definitely seems to be the great filter (not helped by the fact that it is may and people are still rocking moonward gear apparently)

torn between raiding as a tank again so tethers actually get picked up reliably or staying dps so we actually have a chance of beating the adds dps check because hooo boy it's pretty dire out there in learning parties at the moment
|
# ? May 12, 2022 08:55 |

the best strategy is probably to try to ask around on discord/in FC chat for anybody who's willing to help, and accept 0-1 chests on your first clear. Trying to do it entirely with the people in learning parties is going to be a lot harder than having 3+ veterans helping out

There’s the whole meme about sliding difficulty of reclears between a Tuesday and Monday reclear but it applies to the entire tier as a whole as well. This late in the tier, practice PFs aren’t gonna be great.

S.J. posted:Yes, but... no This. I want some of the dungeons to have a non-linear layout again, like Haukke Manor, and I want a savage mode. I know they can pump these things out in their current layout, but it would be nice to have some variety or additional challenge.

I haven't had much time to practice P3S due to classes and having to be available and depression but every practice group I've been in was walled by the adds DPS check. And I'm talking about like 1-2 months in, not on release. Some people just do bad DPS for many motives.

# ? May 12, 2022 12:17 |

We struggled in our static with the adds DPS check in P3S until we got people to start hitting the big birds just before tethers appear and while waiting for tethers to resolve. I noticed that a lot of people in Practice PFs (at least 1 month into the tier) just stand around and wait for tethers to resolve before DPSing again, and this will make the DPS check either extremely tight or, in some situations, outright impossible.

S.J. posted:Yeah, give us back un-nerfed Ivalice already the actual mechanical complexity of orbonne is still unchanged, the only difference is you don't wipe because more than half the raid struggles with such high-difficulty concepts as "have three people on the pad with three markers on it", "don't overlap giant aoes" and "don't drag trailing aoes through the party". in a raid that already takes 40 minutes on a good run, i'm quite happy with not adding another 10 to 20 minutes to it

I was completing the lv 90 role quests capstone just recently and it made me want something like at-release WoW mage tower. Still some of the best content WoW put out, even if some classes just had a much easier time with them than others, or the fights were almost trivialised with particular legendaries.

Yeah. There's really no point in making ADR content hard because the kind of person the content is designed for will never be able to do the mechanics and it punishes everyone else with a much worse time.
