Wingnut Ninja posted:I just gave it a quick try and it's a real mindfuck to figure out from scratch at 80, but it seems like with a little practice and understanding it'll be really cool. Pretty much every attack feels like it would be a "capstone" high-cooldown attack on any other class. It is and it is great.

Summoner is incredibly simple mechanically which leaves more room for on-the-spot decision making and also looking cool which is the most important part of a job.

Wingnut Ninja posted:I didn't realize all that about the Astral Flow differences [e: looks like it's something that comes after 80], but aren't you going to use all three during your rotation no matter what? Or does that change at some point as well? No, you use all three, it's simply a matter of when you can afford to stand still and cast vs. when you need to move, when you might need a dash to the enemy vs. when you want to stay away, etc.

I don't think you could plausibly split Endwalker into two expansions, but I do believe that it has basically two vaguely-related stories inside of it and I think that's to its detriment. I think the solution would be to connect the stories together better, and not just separate them more.

SirPhoebos posted:To broach a more general topic: when making dialogue choices, how many here treat the WoL as a character in their own right instead of an extension of yourself? Because there have been points where I passed over what might have been a funnier or spicier dialogue option simply because I couldn't envision my WoL saying it for whatever reason I generally pick the most generically heroic options available, so I guess?

Summoner is significantly less complicated than it used to be, but it functions just fine at that level. Just summon bahamut, make sure to Enkindle and use Deathflare during Bahamut's summon, then summon an egi, use that gem version of your single target/AoE spell where applicable, then repeat twice.

DRK is either top damage dealing tank or second most after Gunbreaker. As a part-time healer I have noticed I need to heal DRK more then another tank but it could just be me getting bad DRKs.

New raid was fun, though the second fight was annoying because our healers had trouble staying alive. I did enjoy the final pull on the last fight. Every pull in which you last long enough to get two LB3s is a good pull.

Zeruel posted:Two LB3s?? Crikey how long did your attempts last? I want to say the last pull was at least 12-13 minutes? But yeah, we dropped to half, a healer LB3d to rez four people (three of whom immediately died because we died to the deathwall and rezzed in the deathwall), and then we managed to recover. Also, someone had time to go 'sorry guys I need to leave please kick me after this pull i need to bring someone to ht ER' and then, a couple of minutes later, go 'actually someone else is brining them to the ER never mind' and get rezzed. It was kind of hilarious.

Garlemald is Rome? Like they even use Latin. (the correct answer of course is that Garlemald takes bits of several empires and combines them to form an extremely Empire-y empire.)

Antivehicular posted:The vibe I get from Copperbell is that it was intended to be new players' first experience with "challenge" mechanics (mob rushes! A puzzle boss!), but the design and tuning ended up making it only work that way for people who are new to the dungeon and also MMOs in general. The first time I ran Copperbell, I found it exciting and tense, because I hadn't played MMOs for over a decade before FF14, and it was the first dungeon that I did on my own without coaching from my partner. Every subsequent time... loving snore town Eh, even then, Tam-tara and Sastasha are better 'how to dungeon' fights because they're actual fights. The slime boss is literally just two adds for the DPS, and they were never particularly hard, even before they got one shot.
