I want duty support savage raids, where Alphinaud pastes a macro, Urianger suggests an alternate strat nobody can understand, and then Alisaie repeatedly wipes the party by greeding her melee phase

Fingers crossed siegfried is easier than the blue mage man previous. He probably isn't. I think he is easier, but #31 makes up for it by being harder

In any case you'll do much better with a class you click with than one which you read on the internet has the biggest dps when played perfectly

Shows up pretty clearly on the graph there, the gap between a good and bad player is much bigger than the gap between a "good" and "bad" job

I'm willing to spend a long time helping bad players in a dungeon or whatever. In savage PF though if it's listed as a clear/loot/late prog party I'm bailing once it's obvious the goal isn't happening, and the nine year old can join a practice from start party if they don't like that.

orcane posted:The actual level of you as a tank will influence how well these pulls will go. Due to the unlocking feature of role skills it's very possible to go into the initial dungeons with only a single defensive cooldown (rampart) which is a huge difference to syncing down to two or three (reprisal, arm's length). It's kind of weird how you don't lose role actions when you sync down. (And then it's more or less irrelevant except for tanks, since everyone else's role actions are pretty niche, although having Peloton in early dungeons is nice)

When two paladins meet, their job stones glow and then the dominant paladin's job stone absorbs the glow from the submissive paladin's job stone. No coherent explanation is given for why this is, why anyone should care or why it wasn't widely known to happen before these quests. But everyone, especially the 60-70 quest writers, agrees that the whole thing should be quietly forgotten.

I'd say it's harder than doing a dungeon in a party but it's very doable and often surprisingly quick. Basic Instinct doubles your damage, and a fully operational blue mage is rather strong even before you count their instant-kill spells (especially when synced down as you don't lose your spells). On the other hand you have to tank AND heal, and you can die surprisingly quickly. And some boss mechanics are a pain to do solo. (I generally use Pom Cure with healer mimickry rather than White Wind. WW is great at healing the rest of the party when you're at full health but if you're solo and get chunked down, it won't save you)

I find Moon Flute a bit awkward for soloing - if you don't get the kill then you can't heal for 15 seconds. I guess the pro play is diamondback just before it expires if final sting isn't an option.Dareon posted:Just in general when soloing, how are you supposed to deal with that? Just be so overpowered that you one-shot the boss before they can hit that phase? Pretty much, yes be powerful enough. Also, often staying in the jail isn't actually an instant-kill it's just a ton damage so sometimes you can level up some more and be able to wait it out. The other thing is being a bit careful with phase transitions. If the boss uses its jail skill in phase 2 which it enters at 50% HP, you can plink it down to 51% then unleash your burst to kill it as quickly as possible.

Mesadoram posted:I always loved blue mages in game, hearing how broken blue mages are makes me . Just be aware that blue mage isn't an "I win" button and early on before you get the good spells you're plinking away with a range of 200 potency spells which apply some crowd control effect. But, it's really cool when it comes together and eg someone manages to pull together an alliance raid party finder and do all the crystal tower raids in half the normal time Qwertycoatl fucked around with this message at 17:01 on Oct 26, 2022 |

If they were coded to use AoE, their abilities would also be adjusted to make them do less damage so it would balance out, since "slower than real players" is a design goal

The thing about retainer levels being limited to your level is important - if you haven't levelled botanist/miner then you shouldn't use it on your retainer either.

Uganda Loves Me posted:I'm trying this out for the first time, and I'm really enjoying crafting. I've taken 7 crafting classes to 50+ before my main combat class (paladin) reached 40 lol. It's probably not practical to continue with all of them, but I like being able to equip my character with a full set of high quality gear that I made myself. Continuing with all of them is entirely practical - it's very common for people who craft to level them all. Crafters all share gear except for tool/offhand and it's nice to be able to make all the intermediate parts of a craft without having to rely on the marketboard.

Dareon posted:I would like all classes to have a Shirk so if something punches us we can aim at the tank and slap it. If you run onto the tank then unless they're asleep their next aoe will pick up the mob (and until they do, that galaxy brain meme from above "mobs having aggro on other players is mitigation" is unironically true)

Unless it has "Savage", "Extreme", "The Minstrel's Ballad" (or "The Binding Coils") in the name, you can queue into it on duty finder without knowing anything about it and you'll be basically fine.

They're rarer now but older trains do still happen. It was post-EW that I happened to kill a random A rank in La Noscea just before a hunt train came in looking for it, and I hurriedly teleported away before they got to the exact location and found me standing over the monster's corpse

BurningBeard posted:Lol. This would be me. I'm just low key stressed about doing group content and didn't want the responsibility of healer or tank. But positional skills stress me out too because of my bad eyesight. Sounds like it's really no big to miss these so that's good to know. Or play as a ranged or caster DPS with no positionals and no responsibilities the responsibilities of healers and tanks are less than they look, and in normal raids/trials a tank is frequently just a dps who's harder to kill
