I wouldn't mind if they instead just smoothed out the skill acquisition (aoe at 45? come on) or cleaned up the 1-50 stretch/tutorial instead. More classes are cool too though

If it means my whole group can aoe down all that garbage instead of just the tank so we can move onto more interesting things, I'm gonna push for it

Should I be expecting to pay through the rear end for crafted when it's released or is the price pretty static? Exarchic seemed to be pretty consistently around 100-200k but I don't think I was around for the day it was patched in.

On the note of bozja exp I dunno if anyone's looked into the new dungeon numbers yet but I did the third EW dungeon (lvl85) just now at level 86. Gave ~4.7mill (I need 9,231,000 to level) and took about a half hour including queue as dps. Probably comparable now and definitely more engaging.

GiantRockFromSpace posted:People have been saying raids got harder after the squish but they feel the same to me? Prob it's just people AFKing more than usual. Like Syrcus still dies at the same pace. Anecdotally it seems like the SB content is more challenging post-squish. Probably contributes to people avoiding the Ivalice raids, especially noted pubbie slayer Orbonne. If they gave proportional exp rewards for the time invested it'd probably help with the CT-fixers. At this point, especially with the dungeon exp boost, I've just been skipping ally roullettes (and trials too for similar reasons). I'm pretty bad, but there's some very bad pubbies out there lately.

Finding a hotbar setup I liked was what I think killed DRG for me. I can see how controller users may fare better with the class since you're using so many buttons so frequently. Like my regular ShB opener was something like: E > Q > alt+1 > 1 > alt+2, alt+3 > 2 > shift+1 > 3 > shift+e > 4 > shift+3 > Q > shift+T > alt+Q > shift+R > shift+Q > shift+3 and then some more crap My hand hurts just from thinking about it edit: and to actually answer the request, here's my setup from 5.5 - the empty E space was BotD. I try to keep similar abilities in the same hotkeys from class to class so it's (as above) obviously not ideal for DRG, but it helps to keep the muscle memory. First row is neutral, second row is alt+, third is shift+. acumen fucked around with this message at 19:21 on Dec 23, 2021 |

Barreft posted:I've had this drat song in my head everyday since Endwalker came out The EW soundtrack is insanely good. There were a few tracks in particular I remembered from the promotional material that took a bit while to show up, and they delivered. I'm no music major or anything but it's absolutely amazing to me how Soken can turn one motif into a dozen different songs ranging from chill diner tunes to melancholic retrospections, while still managing to include homages to franchise staples and XIV themes.

admanb posted:(to me) the best tracks in Shadowbringers were mournful while the best tracks in Endwalker were triumphant, which makes sense given the respective themes Final trial the mix of Maker's Ruin/Footfalls in phase 2 owns and imo that moment is even more hype than Ardbert's pre-Hades

On the topic of ping/MCH heat blast stuff does anyone know if it's actually better to deliberately heat blast > gauss > heat blast > ricochet etc or do I get the same result by just repeatedly smashing all three at the same time? On test dummies it seems to be pretty much the same or there's so little difference it's unnoticeable

Kyrosiris posted:You wobble between the two to avoid overcapping. You only single weave because Heat Blast has a 1.5s GCD and trying to double weave clips like a mofo (I think even one double weave loses a full Heat Blast). Oh yeah that makes sense, fair enough. Well since I'm not a current content or savage raider I will probably just continue to smash my face on the keyboard and eat the 5% or whatever dps loss! Probably even less.

Chillgamesh posted:The main thing Bozja has over Eureka is that you can grind for out-of-zone progression there, that lost actions are better than logos actions, and that there are more raids. These were all very important distinctions for me that made the difference between killing only like four mobs in Eureka and completing six relics in Bozja, to be fair

Sinteres posted:Tbh they should have just patched exp into Eureka since 61-70 doesn't have trusts so it's kind of a dead zone in leveling for people who use them and command missions to level. Yeah if the majority of my classes weren't already past that point this would've 100% made me play more eureka Roulettes are cool and all but sometimes I don't want to/can't commit to being a competent party member and would rather mindlessly grind fates or whatever it is you grind in eureka

In Alphascape 2.0, this was uh... interesting. Is this a bot or something? I can't imagine a new player/boost is somehow using mudras more than their 123 but, here we are.

Does flamethrower even have any use now? Scattergun gives off so much heat that it seems like it might be a dps loss. Bioblaster even doesn't seem worth the gcd when it's making up like 3% of my overall dungeon dps and autocrossbow/scattergun are a combined 40%ish.

I wasn't really following that goty thread but EW was my #1 for sure. And after watching the ending cutscenes and final battles and listening to the soundtrack some more after I beat it the first time, I think I can now definitively say that I enjoyed Endwalker more than Shadowbringers. Good game

cheetah7071 posted:I think it's a great alt class but I wouldn't want to main it. Doesn't feel like it has much depth. About the only crunchy bit to it is choosing when to enter ifrit, because that has long castbars Yeah this is pretty accurate. I haven't done any raids with it but between regular trials and dungeons slipstream also seems to do a surprising amount of dps - usually in my top three abilities - so optimizing that is another little quirk. Having a gap closer and heal are also kinda neat to pull off appropriately but overall yeah, pretty simple. Great to share gear with my RDM primary just to mix things up occasionally.

Kazy posted:I find Southern Front is better exp than Zadnor only because the FATEs in Zadnore die far too quickly to guarantee a gold. If you join a group it seems like as long as your group as a whole contributes enough to get a gold and you get a single hit in, you get gold. Join groups it's easy as hell I've been preferring EW dungeons though just for the sweet tunes and getting to use my fancy new expansion skills.

FeatherFloat posted:You'll need to slap an extra one or two materia onto the gear you eventually make for yourself, and eat some fancy food, but it's really not as bad as all that. You can get away with using cheaper materia from the previous tier, and you'll earn a bunch of materia just from crafting the stuff as you level, so it's only a little bit of work and calculation to get your gear in the shape to make the crafted 580. Okay that's great I'm already just throwing VIII's in all my combat jobs anyway, those X's are expensive as poo poo and I don't raid.

It's obviously impossible to carry 23 players but a good player - especially with bh5 - can absolutely make a major difference in a match. I've pulled off some wild defenses clutch healing a small squad against a larger zerg and single-handedly turned fights around as a summoner making GBS threads aoes all over the place. And I'm by no means a hardcore pvp guy, just do my dailies. edit: yeah what those guys said. Battle high is a huge deal acumen fucked around with this message at 00:43 on Apr 2, 2022 |

It's not so much "try not to ever die"; it's more "you shouldn't ever be in a position where you will die because you fight at range and are paying attention to your minimap/surroundings". Also on top of tab targeting I'd also suggest binding"target nearest enemy" (mine's on tilde)

As a non friend haver getting smashed by 5 stacks in games sucks balls but duos are pretty reasonable imo

# ¿ Apr 12, 2022 16:38 |

yeah I can't imagine that even duos would outnumber those solo queueing, especially at this point and in this game. If CC is successful and continues to be successful after the shine wears off then I can see them adding it, but for now it's for the better. As for CC itself, only played one game so far but it and the pvp action changes kick rear end. I especially love how short the games are.

Vermain posted:Having the burden of responsibility shifted onto individual players over healers in general was a great change for exactly this reason, since your success is no longer entirely dependent on whether you A) have a healer and B) they're in range and willing to keep you from instantly exploding when you go in. As a (typically auto filled) healer who was often both a) and b), FL feels kinda rough and the clashes much more lethaI; I had more deaths in my first 6.1 FL match than the previous half dozen combined, probably more. Tanks do feel much better though, which is likely healthier for the activity at least. And it could just be getting used to the new abilities and necessity to play more carefully too. Would be nice if we got some exp for CC because that's all I want to play now!

They definitely took some inspiration from mobas for the new pvp actions. I did the Pyke thing with my ninja, feels great Also glad I'm not the only one having CC portrait issues. That default driver's license photo brings much shame.
