Wait when did they do that? I remember it refreshing Umbral back when it was 100 potency and worth using. But yeah even since Blizz 2 got nerfed to 50 potency it has no place being on anyone's bars, and they haven't designed a fight where a Bind is useful since T7 so even Freeze is barely needed.

Kuvo posted:i assume this is what Krile's flashback dad was alluding to about being imprisoned right It's 99% going to be Hades. Considering the Greek naming scheme for the zone and that he was a FFXI villain so it fits the nostalgia thing they're going for too.

RDM has like the most boring aoe I've seen since rogues spamming fan of knives in WoW RDM is in desperate need of Verblizzard and Verwater aoes so it can do Scatter > Blizz > Scatter > Water to at least make it not Scatter x Infinity on 4+ targets.

Actually for coil at least a few of the instant death hits are something like 125% your max HP instead of being a fixed damage amount.

You'll probably kill him pretty early into the second cycle of his mechanics but you're probably still gonna have to deal with GCOmega. Neo's a 6 minute fight that makes you do it twice to be 12 minutes long.

EponymousMrYar posted:Is Yotsuyu a good enough actor to fool her own brother? Or does she really know nothing? And what the heck is that fancy mirror for? If I'm rembering right, that mirror is supposed to be from the myths of Amaterasu, which has some people thinking Yotsuyu's gonna go Primal for our big story climax, it also fits with the patch title "Rise of a New Sun" since Amaterasu is a sun goddess, also she's Susano-o's brother. So plenty of things to suggest it can happen.

Chardanook reeks of them playing it too safe, the fact there is 0 randomness to the paintings makes the gimmick even less involved then Catastrophe's savage gravity gimmicks. Chardanook could probably have used some of the randomness Gaurdian has, lord knows you have 10 years for the Possession cast to actually finish and see what paintings were being picked.

Hobgoblin2099 posted:I hope it's not as strenuous as Exdeath, but I have a gut feeling it will be. From experience, both forms of Kefka are easier to learn then Exdeath. Though clown is very strict on not failing the mechanics. God has a tiny bit more leeway but going into any Forsaken with deaths is like 99% a wipe.

Now you exchange your aetherpool points in smaller increments!!...long after the weapons you can get from it are basically entirely irrelevant and no one cares anymore. This is more for Heaven-on-High which is going to work the same way as the changed PotD for it's weapon exchange.

Ridorona is cool. Spoilers for it. I hope you guys like math. Also only 99% sure since ACT is broken atm but, Yiazmat has 50 million HP, with a gimmick to chunk 40% of it. He even uses Growing Threat at 10% HP and starts glowing red. Axle_Stukov fucked around with this message at 12:17 on May 22, 2018 |

Hobgoblin2099 posted:You know, during that scene he implies he thinks that Yotsuyu slept with Zenos for her position from what I can tell. But then he also says something like "None of you loved Zenos more than me!" or something. So from his perspective, his sister stole his man away from him or something. What a hosed up family. It's truly a shame, but the WoL is the only husbando/waifu for Zenos. Can't wait for the reunion in 4.4/4.5

MechaX posted:My run had a lot of people getting used to the math, but the pelvic laser really, really hurts. Plus, there were too many times where people got the marker in the giant electric cog phase, and then just explode for 46k damage. The tanks have nothing to do with petrifying the raid, Yiazmat turns himself for that.

SKULL.GIF posted:The server tick mechanic for Tsukuyomi is still absolutely indefensible. The floor isn't any kind of server tick, it pulses every 5 seconds. The only server related shenanigans would be the normal things where crossing at the 4.9 second mark will probably give you the color you were on. And if were talking EX, just be booking it to the correct color immediately as meteor marks go out, you have plenty of time even if your a meteor target.

LordHippoman posted:Ironically my biggest difficulty was the add phase. I could not, for the life of me, find safe spots. Pretty much the edge of the platform on the middle of any side will be "safe" or not fatal. There is no safe spot to take minimum damage on that add phase, especially when it's 5 of them landing at once.

Leal posted:Continuing on a fresh character, I'm at 41 and man I forgot how A: How fanatical the Ishgardians are and B: How stingy the quest rewards are in giving out accessories. It amazes me that despite making adjustments, Heavensward still rewards ZERO wrist accessories during the entire 50-60 leveling experience. Stormblood at least does give you a full set of gear... though you do have to dig through the sidequests a bit to find the accessory ones. But yeah, Omegascapes bosses are actually a big question to me, the pattern so far would suggest FF7 bosses ending with Sephiroth, but then Omega not being fought at all seems like such a copout. Well guess in another month or so we'll get our first hints of 4.4 and see what they're up to. Axle_Stukov fucked around with this message at 00:30 on Jun 26, 2018 |

Poops Mcgoots posted:I honestly don't really know what bosses you could do that are iconic to 7 that aren't the gem weapons and sephiroth. Maybe a jenova fight where the phases are her forms? Bizarro sephiroth would honestly work better for a 24 man though since you could fight him with three parties. Eh 7's got it's fair share of bosses that I'm sure people will remember like Lost Number, Materia Keeper, Schizo, Carry Armor and Proud Clad. And then you've got Jenova for the third boss easy, or even Hojo and Jenova is like a phase on Sephiroth.

BrightWing posted:My main problem with SMN is Bahamut randomly deciding to not do what you tell him to and missing out on an Ahk Morn. I get what they were going for with the wyrmwave mechanic, but it makes Bahamut so stupid if you start moving because since he has no regular auto-attack it seems #1 priority is STAY WITHIN 5 YARDS OF MASTER and will happily make sure he gets next to you before firing that Ahk Morn.

Hobgoblin2099 posted:I am inclined to believe that Belias waits until you have a proc before he jumps and does his freakishly long attack that is designed to be as long as possible to wait out the duration of said procs. The timing for his divebombs are the absolute worst in the game, it literally fucks over like everyone. And then there's the one at like 4minutes where he does 2 divebombs within 30 seconds like gently caress off already.

Hobgoblin2099 posted:I don't know what demon possessed me to say this, but I want it excised right now. If Pagos was just Anemos 2 it would have been an OK statement. But Pagos went and stripped any elements of not poo poo design and multiplied the poo poo by 10. And the cherry on top is the weapon is only 370. I've already got Kefka Savage weapons for all my jobs, and for people who just want a 370 the 24 man had the Solvent added to it's tradein vendor too this week. Like if this came out on 4.3 release it might have had a purpose, but as it stands Pagos is some nearly pointless bullshit i'm only doing for seeing what they do with XIV Galuf.
