girl dick energy posted:I have an FC friend who was playing BLM with full effects on, and we only realized that when he said he didn't notice the flare marker during Emanation. That one's real hard to miss, so I figured that had to be what was going on, and his reaction was an instant "oh my god this is so much better, my eyes don't hurt any more". I wish there were a more granular level of configuration for what exactly constitutes "limited" effects. Like, I was in an instance the other day and the despite being on limited, the MCH in the party's effects were all invisible. Not a huge issue, but it looked kinda stupid.

Limited pretty much just drops everything except any effect with a gameplay purpose - ground aoes and healing zones and the like. Although if there was a middle ground that turned on other jobs' big hits like Stardiver and the like I'd probably run that.

I wish there was an option that turned off all the "impact" effects that hide the boss behind a billion fireballs but kept the weapon swing trails and similar personal effects.

I found a plugin that lets me turn full effects on for 4 and 8 player parties and down to limited for alliance raids. Now I can see the pretty lights in roulettes and also be able to not stand in the bad accidentally in crystal tower (because I swear to god that's the only raid series in the alliance roulette pool)

Antivehicular posted:Has XP loss/debt on death in grindy multiplayer games ever been implemented well or added to the experience at all? I can't think of a single time it hasn't just been a pointless bringdown. funny enough i take advantage of this aspect of eureka to help people experience the content in a fraction of the time it would otherwise take them.

My preferred method of healing is to set the boss as focus target. I have a mouse side button to switch to focus target, and another side button to switch to nearest enemy for adds and whatnot. If I need to do a single target heal I click someone in the party list, press the heal key then immediately hit the side button to get back to the boss.

Literally the only time I've turned effects down was in Baldesion Arsenal first time where it would have been a real real big pain in the rear end if I had died. Full effects otherwise. No regrets.

Part of why I play games is Spectacle. Why the gently caress would I tone down the exact reason I am playing this game by turning down visual effects? PRETTY EFFECTS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN BEING ABLE TO SEE, THEY MAKE MY BRAIN PRODUCE THE HAPPY CHEMICAL

I have bad eyes and legit some fights in Panda I wouldn’t be able to do with full effects. I still wanna see the ghost buzz saws from fell cleave though.

What are my options for hammer weapons as a Warrior? Axes are great and all but this class has always felt like it needs a hammer. Especially at the start and end when the game tasks you with breaking rocks with an axe.

The ShB hammer is a craftable weapon, not from a tribe quest. You can buy it off the market board, but it's a level 78 item, so be aware you can't glam it onto anything lower then that. We really do need more warrior hammers. Of the current options, only the P4S weapon is dyeable. Also give me a replica of Nero's hammer.

i love spell effects but it's summer time and i literally feel the space heater 5900x/3070ti kick on when there's a lot of poo poo going on ingame. also green dps chat: i love blapping on sge because you actually have quite a few things to do. ppl poo poo on toxicon (somewhat rightly so) but feels good to be able to aoe blap while moving but out of range of phlegma balls. i work really hard at it except i don't bother dotting trash packs.

SirSamVimes posted:Turning down any visual effects is cowardice. Summoner just isn't the same without Titan flashbanging me once a minute. On the topic of healing, I gave Sage a look last night, and I definitely feel like it needs a bit of tweaking come 7.0. I feel like I barely use two thirds of my toolkit, and when I do have to use them they aren't as impactful as other healers' big buttons. Very visually stimulating though.

kerachole before 78 is trash and after that it's super super good. bouncing between kera and physis plus the haimas scratches my itch quite well. pneuma underwhelms me though, maybe i just havent been in enough content where it's available to find its use.

Pair Pneuma with Zoe and it's basically a full party heal. Few things heal as much as that.

whoever said using squad members for dungeons was dead wrong btw, its SO annoying trying to do mechanics with them, even in level 20 dungeons lol. the engage, disengage poo poo and trying to get them to target stuff during invul. phases is absolutely dreadful. I just want my goddamn squat emote...

Yeah squads are garbage. Just try to find a less painful set of dungeons to get it over with.

Thousand Maws 10 times with a podcast on. Virtually impossible to fail(don't overpull as tank, you don't have CDs and they don't AoE), no need to give orders to squad.

Yeah, modern Toto-Rak is boring but quick and painless, because they forgot to make new bosses when they modernized the dungeon and you'll never have to move the squadron off their autotargets.

Also, to make it go smoother, bring two Arcanist squaddies, as they actually have incredibly powerful AoEs that they use liberally due to still having the 2.0 skillset.

That would require me to find and recruit them and I’m loathe to do that now that I have some 50s squad members. Also, how do I get the last rank of my GC? It didn’t make that clear

Also the only real reason to get up to Captain is to be able to spend seals on the ARR-HW and StB minion lootboxes if you really want to. Sometimes a mount pops out of them. But you can also just get all the minions and mounts in the pool by just doing the things you originally got them for.

I do feel the need to turn off some effect on the latest Alliance raids because it's 24 folks' lvl 90 effects going off and it can be genuinely hard to see what you're even fighting, let alone their patterns.
