I really wonder why some people lose their spot in queue more easily than others. I get plenty of 2002s, but even after taking literally more than 10 attempts to reconnect I've never lost any progress, I would have a meltdown if I did.

Also it's kind of obvious but having extra rezzes from SMN/RDM can have a huge impact when working through hard content. I think people underrate that stuff sometimes. Maybe they should give MCH a Defibrillator instant cast rez on a really long cooldown.

The devs included a grind that takes 600,000,000 mettle (30 turn-ins at near the cap) to finish, I don't think they can claim to be surprised players are focusing on the stuff that gives mettle.

BA is a lot more fun than DR normal... once you get in at least. DR Savage seems pretty cool but I haven't had the chance to give it a serious go.

Argas posted:I would like to be able to use PFs and such within Eureka and Bozja at least. I know it's due to the way they're implemented as their own instances but it's really a shame that relics are now siphoned off into these places that prevent you from doing other content while you're inside. You can't grind towards the relic without being inside. At least Bozja has many steps where you can make progress in non-Bozja content.

iPodschun posted:You can use Bozja/Zadnor to level all the way to 90 if you want. I believe aers said the experience scales up with your level up to 87, but even then the experience gained per skirmish/CE is still very good so you can keep going to 90 if you want. It's like 345,000 xp per skirmish from 80-90 I believe.

Twibbit posted:Something that is confusing me on fishing, most guides to catch specific fish mention the tug it requires, but how helpful is that since I have to catch if I get a tug right? or else I just waste the bait. Is there a way to ignore a tug? or are people just letting themselves have to recast to save on GP? Surface Slap is a super important buff that lets you prevent a given type of fish being hooked, until your next catch; this often lets you drastically increase the odds of catching your target fish. If you reel in a random bite you'll lose that buff, but if you let every wrong bite go you can maintain it until you get the bite you're looking for. Same for the prize catch buff, but that's generally far less crucial than surface slap which is a total game changer for a lot of rare fish. Also aside from that, hooking the fish takes longer than letting it go (especially for medium or big tugs), and on some fish you really want to get every possible cast in during the limited window.

Hopefully the BLM pvp skill is that they stand still casting for a full minute and if they ever finish the cast they kill the entire enemy team and win instantly

If the other players (including healer) are doing crappy DPS then the packs will just take too long and you'll start to get worn down, maybe that's been causing you trouble.

The one frustrating thing I've encountered, I think, is that there's a split second between the cleanse and the immunity buff going up, so if you manage to get stunned right after you press the button you can get totally screwed.

I'm getting to some reasonably high level games and it's definitely giving me flashbacks of my old Dota addiction. Super easy to keep playing "just one more game," but it's really nice that the game length is short and usually not subject to insane variation. It's wild how spread apart the fights can get, and how chasing someone all the way across the map and deep into their base can actually be the correct move at times. I've been focusing on MCH which people seem to generally agree is in a good place strength wise, but mostly I'm just impressed by the design of it. It really feels like the coolest version of what I imagine the Machinist to be, 'cause I've never really been impressed with how it feels to play in PvE stuff. It's so versatile, and hitting a boosted Bioblaster on a full enemy party is insanely satisfying.

CJ posted:I really like the system of win streaks and not losing stars when you're at the bottom of a division. It means that over time people should slowly climb with an even win/loss ratio. The problem with most ranked systems is that most people plateau in skill fairly quickly then rarely deviate from that level. The way the system is set up there's still incentive to play even when you plateau because you just need a win streak, and the floors at each division will help relieve ladder anxiety. I'm giving up on ranked pvp completely because 95% of my matches are becoming complete stomps, and it's not particularly engaging whether I win or lose. I got handed something like a 12-win streak last night, where matches were just completely obviously over about 30 seconds in almost every time, and today had an equivalent losing streak that felt equally random. There's certainly stuff they can fix in terms of class balance and those tweaks will be welcome but besides that I expect the matches to continue to have absurd ranges of player skill that make them play out in very stupid ways. It'll still be fundamentally a super fun pvp mode for casual matches but man it's weird at the high levels.

There's a rating you get at crystal, and after a long enough time I guess that will be able to function as a "true mmr" type thing. For now though the system is still making some extremely weird choices at times, and there are just a ton of new people reaching the rank all the time and it's extremely chaotic. And like, since you can't go below Crystal 0, someone who's lost 50 matches at the bottom of Crystal is probably not weighted all that differently from someone who's won and lost an equal amount.

boloney posted:You always blitz when it's available. RoF always lines up with your Tornado Kick/Phantom Rush anyways e: I'd say the way it actually nicely lines up is that as long as you use RoF on cooldown every time, you'll never be stuck sitting at 2 charges of Blitz for any significant amount of time. You definitely don't want to use it every single time a charge is available though, and you also don't want to wait until it has 2 every time.

In my experience The Balance is generally full of 1) terrible assholes and/or 2) people who will spend 50 hours practicing (or just theorycrafting) a special opener that theoretically can result in a .1% dps gain while never learning to work their normal rotation into basic mechanics, and die to greed constantly

CC sure is fun What's that? The red team happened to have someone near the top rank on Primal? hmm must be a coincidence edit: and again!  They pressed a few more buttons, must have realized they were being too obvious.... except only 23k self-healing means they managed to not pop recuperate more than once the whole match. Got a few queue pops that got instantly declined too as the thrower and throwee probably saw they didn't pop at the same moment. e2: oh weird they remembered how to play when in a third match, not against their friend Martman fucked around with this message at 12:08 on Apr 30, 2022 |

Lord_Magmar posted:Right, but if you can do SSS then it becomes a matter of executing that rotation during mechanics. Which you don't need a dps meter to tell you whether you're able to do that or not. e: I guess when I'm referring to a dps meter I mean looking at my parses afterwards, not watching the number real-time. But still, I often have a vague or sometimes outright incorrect sense of how well I did from pull to pull. It is very helpful to see numbers that explain what I actually was doing rather than just knowing I can theoretically clear a target dummy.
