I was remarking that Copied Factory feels like they secretly enabled minimum ilevel or something, because it always takes noticeably longer than any other

I was doing savage for the first time and got as far as P10S turrets before my static fell apart. But I gotta say, Wicked Step was very frustrating but really, really funny.

Regalingualius posted:I was remarking that Copied Factory feels like they secretly enabled minimum ilevel or something, because it always takes noticeably longer than any other Aside from everything having way too much HP, the majority of the bosses either have exasperatingly long phase transitions or untargetable periods that drag the fights out even further. It really does drag, even with everyone's power getting a boost from EW.

I have no idea how to cleanly avoid the first boss's spotlights, their AoE seems really wonky.

I mean, even the first two fights where you have 100% uptime on the bosses feel like they just drag on compared to the Twelve raids

FuturePastNow posted:I think Aglaia and Euphrosyne are cool looking spectacle but Euphro in particular is just too easy. If the third one is Orbonne or Breach level pain I'll be happy I wouldn't be too surprised if new Alliance raids are just going to be easier from now on so folks don't abandon the alliance roulette once they can no longer ilvl cheat the system.

I like the actual aesthetics of the Nier raids a lot, and the inclusion of environmental cues you have to pay attention to is genuinely great, but they're, mechanically, a lot for the average player to deal with, and their infrequency means that you can lapse on your knowledge of simple poo poo like "where do I have to be to avoid the beam sabers in Bunker" easily. I'm still not quite sure I hate them as much as Cidolfus, but that's mostly healer bias talking.

All I know is that the last two bosses of the third Nier raid were one of the only times where I was so disoriented by the visuals that I could barely keep my eyes on the screen (let alone actually play) the first few times I saw them.

Personal raid tier list Yay, things are happening EW raids Nier raids Ivalice raids Wiping city Ok, if I have to Other HW raids World of darkness sometimes I'll quit if someone dodges, no regrets Syrcus LotA 6.5 can't come soon enough to get rid of the disrobing meta, I don't really mind running these if there are actual sprouts but I hate Crystal Tower raids.

I like how Crystal Tower raids lose it to PVP of all things in the time benefit ratio for mogtomes. If I have to do lota one more time with no new players I will scream.

I like the Ivalice raids for the scenery-chewing voice lines the bosses have. It also drops generally good glams. Dun Scaith is a rare find in roulette but the final battle is genuinely cinematic and cool and I like the characters in the HW raid trilogy and still want my own Parrock or Sea of Clouds housing. Crystal tower is fine, like it's babby's first raid and it's so common that I can sleepwalk through it, but I don't hate it. I like the music in Nier. Weeping City is probably the rarest pull in roulette, in my experience. I almost never see it, so I don't remember how anything goes. The Twelve are all right. I don't know, to me it feels so empty. These are the gods we pick at the beginning and there's really nothing special about any of them. There's no grandiosity to it. It's just a handful of fights. It feels like such a waste, to me, but it's also not complete, so I'll wait for 6.5 to reserve judgment on what the story and everything ends up being.

Mister Olympus posted:compare the "three people get marked for big explosions" mechanic on TG cid to Ozma's equivalent where six people get marked and the whole alliance gets punished with damage+damage down if two of them overlap 6 people get marked the second time in Cid. every overlap explodes for damage and gives 2 stacks of a dot. the damage this mechanic does was nerfed because it basically insta wiped you on fuckups, even with the echo. orbonne was nerfed first by giving it echo, and there was a second pass sometime later (I want to say in ShB) where they took every 'failure' state mechanic on Cid - 3people not standing on each tower, the shadow orbs getting too close, and an ice add not being killed - and greatly reduced their damage edit: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/9ee566b4cad525c8330bfb3c09591b3f63f433fd check the battle system changes aers fucked around with this message at 08:22 on Sep 2, 2023 |

Well, I decided to go one more step with all of the 9 remaining ARR relics I've got. I figured there wouldn't be any better circumstances, since I'll be finishing off the BRD one and that ARR Job's about as perfect as it gets for farming FATEs when you can't be on BLU or non-ARR Jobs (AoE at 18 and 45, actual kiting on single target for a few seconds and ranged available at all levels to pull boss targets away from their groups). After this, though, I'm only focusing on BRD, WHM and NIN since those are the Zeta weapons I want. The others may or may not happen at some later date, if I get bit by the completion bug, but I'm certainly not doing books for them right now.

I'm surprised they don't just have an airlock of 2 barriers, crossing exterior invisible barrier triggers cutscenes, inner barrier doesn't drop until everyone's out of cutscenes (with a maximum delay timer based on how long it should take with autotext maybe). I get it's possible to troll with network packet fun, but that should be super easy to detect/ban for harassment

what happened before you could teleport into the arena? I had two instances yesterday where the tank just did not give a gently caress and started the fight while the sprout was in their cutscene, and both times they didn't get out of the cutscenes until after the arena was sealed

Mister Olympus posted:the "three people get marked for big explosions" mechanic on TG cid It's really obvious where you're supposed to put those, and they still gently caress it up every time. Much more obvious than in Weeping City (where the "back corner of the platform" spot is very scary to people). I don't think there's any way they could do this mechanic that six random people would get right, even if they shined spotlights on the places to go, so I hope they use it again because that's funny
