Never be afraid of wasting a pomandor because 90% of people don't use them and they just sit there

There's probably cases where you'll want to have an emergency one but I think they're far enough in that you won't see them unless you're rolling in a premade group with goons

I was once scolded for using pomanders of strength, although party was still sitting at 3 of those and no one bothered to use them. But generally, no one cares.

lol gently caress anyone who gets pissy about you using pomandors while you're doing matched parties for quick exp

Huh, someone said that in FC chat a while ago.

Guess I just got extremely lucky, then. I'm pretty sure my queue time was like 15-30 seconds total.

They keep giving better bonuses for LDR queuing as a class in need which is probably fixing the usual DPS wait times

lmao if the guy who quotes 7 people any time he wants to say something is freaking out over a one page description of DRG rotations at 70

Galaga Galaxian posted:

That is a dumb macro. I can see it now.

RDM Corps-a-Corps in, starts doing his combo. DRG deploys his stupid macro, it grabs the RDM, instead of the SAM just a bit further away. RDM displaces away and just goes back to shooting magic roses and poo poo from a distance, having never noticed the tether. lol Dragoon.

the alternatives are i spend 2 gcds trying to target someone with it and then switch back to my actual rotation because i am a Bad, or i don't use it at all

Erg
Oct 31, 2010

or i just use basic situational awareness (not guaranteed) and use it to grab the tank while the RDM is doing their rotation off in mage land

You could just pick a focus target and do /ac "Dragon Sight" <f>

For this to work do I need to just choose someone at the beginning of a raid/dungeon to do /focustarget "My Balls"?

Only in the most technical sense really, realistically speaking you're only likely to get people to do things cross-server if it's raiding. Honestly, transferring to Omega would be the better option, even if you have to pay for it; for the free company bonuses, people willing to run stuff with you, feed your chocobo, give you fashion advice, etc. Please Calm Down is currently the #2 ranked FC on Omega so we're pretty active and healthy, with a fair few new players, and you'd be more than welcome!

Use elusive jump to tank swap when you get the debuff. Then run over to Orn Khai for healing.

Estiniens dialogue has a mistranslation, you need to use Elusive jump when you get the massive debuff.

To be honest I've basically met a genuinely terrible person in dungeons basically never. I mean in terms of bad mechanics I have but usually they either are receptive to advice or have a reason why they're doing poorly. (i.e: a newbie tank who is genuinely not comfortable with big pulls or a healer who doesn't feel they can keep up with it.) The salt only seems to exist in meaningful quantities in extreme/savage content.

I think its just the sense of scale (like the ridiculous walls in Yanxia) that throws me off. If the lochs were way less deep or way wider, they'd make more sense. As it is they kind of feel like a half-mile deep sinkhole magically swallowed a city while somehow leaving it intact.

The same thing happened to me in the 40s, this was a couple weeks ago. I haven't run into any levelling dead spaces in HW thanks to the occasional dungeon roulette, and also doing all the sidequests so I can find out more about the world (Nonmind!)


I don't know what this means! My knowledge of most of the classes is pretty poor, outside of AST/SCH/PLD.

DRG has a lot of pushing buttons in between GCD to maximize damage, and sometimes pushing two buttons in between a GCD is the most optimal. This can get a little tight even on good connections

It's not like required to do good damage, but you do need it for really good damage

The unlock quest for the first of the three Crystal Tower raids (Labyrinth of the Ancients). It features all the best elements of FF14 questing like excessive FedEx-ing and waiting hours for the right FATE to pop.

i mean it only takes forever if you don't bother doing other easy fates to clear out the ones you don't want

like i did the whole unlock sequence in about 90 minutes even with the fates not being spawned when i first started

it's a pain in the dick but it can be done pretty quick if you try instead of bitching to your friends that nothing's spawned

Erg
Oct 31, 2010

it's biggest offense imo is that you can't collect all four at once, so sometimes you get hosed with fates spawning when you can't use them

The bosses melt in seconds though. I was doing the kobold one, and clearing out the other FATEs when it finally popped and by the time I could run back it was 99% dead, and my fleche finished it off. Thankfully bronze is good enough to satisfy the requirements.

oh yeah that's a bad time. i was doing it on some weeknight before SB launched when no one cared enough to try and snipe fates
