What are you guys doing with the week or so that remains until everyone's progress is thrown out the window? I'm trying to meet the minimum iLv for the next EX fight:
>grinding out an Aetherpool weapon for my main, since I'm still using a shitty i210 welfare weapon >every single silver chest in the floor 41-50 stretch is either trapped or a mimic Kill me. 4 runs in, and I'm at +30 weapon/+24 armor. That said, at least it's good for Esoterics/Lore farming. PotD sucks but I'd rather kill myself than run Expert Roulette again. i235 is said to be the minimum to attempt Sophia EX.
Waiting patiently to see the endless tears once people on Balmung can't get their rape-dungeons because not only are apartments limited, but you can buy an apartment even if you already own a personal home.

>12 minutes
Since when? They gate everything so hard you can't even AoE things down proper anymore.
Henry Hill
Get better DPS.
Aiden Butler
>muh ecelebs
Eli Wood
No I'm pretty sure you're just not timing things proper. Even with both DPS/Healer/tank pulling 1700/1400/900+ DPS respectively it's never been close to 12m.
Andrew Price
>not having a 240 lore weapon How the fuck can you be this bad. They even uncapped the gears from a8. You could literally get it in an afternoon if you've been buying tokens each week like you should have been. >there are people with mains that aren't at least ilvl 239 this late into the game
Adam Cook
Okay maybe 15. Either way it's quick and easy for either dungeon if you have a competent group

It will take you less time to get a 240 weapon.
Get your 230 weapon (Alex 8 4 times over and over to get 4 gears no cap on these. Get 1000 lore for the tokens)
Once done just do the void ark and weeping city to get the tokens at the end. Trade in for some Illuminati deep gobdip
Upgrade to 240.
Jackson Hughes
>AST getting "huge barrier and card buffs" on 3.4
Who's excited for 20% balances, boles and arrows?
Jason Jones
Why do you people not realise that Lore is still a limiting factor?
You say "get 1000 lore" but that takes 3 weeks minimum.

Caleb Davis
God I absolutely cannot wait for the sea of SCH tear if that does happen. You just know they'll whine about how hard their job is having to micro their pet and shit too, it'll be great.
Though it's probably more likely to kill WHM than SCH.
Wyatt Morris
>that one person that said something got promptly btfo

it would kill WHM, as the raiding meta is probably still balls to the wall dps checks.

Nolan Miller
>blizzfags are already so bored of legion and overwatch that they have to come to ffxiv threads to have fun
Christopher Reyes
>aspected helios barrier will literally become deployment tactics >this will not kill SCH
May i remind you diurnal benefic/helios is still a step below WHM while nocturnal benefic/helios is already better than SCH and only getting better. Fairy regen is not as big of a deal as people make it out to be and if the card potency is also getting buffed then SCH's dps can also be easily overshadowed.
>mfw astrolgian is the worst class i have ever seen designed I really don't get why yoshi-p can't accept that there will always be a meta no matter what he does to balance the game, its not like any one healer is absurdly overpowered over the others (till 3.4 astrologian i guess). Also the card gimmick can be easily fixed by making rng more predictable, instead of just making the cards pocket raging strikes. Ergo you draw from a deck of cards that refreshes itself rather than just drawing a random given card at all times, makes for way better planning.
Kayden Price
I'm glad I leveled both SCH and AST now.
Not planning on resubbing in the near future though.

Charles Clark
is this game fun, should i try it
Jaxson Morris
The only way whm will be viable if they throw in straight up tough as balls heal checks in the raids.
Also sch need to calm down about what their class can do. A good sch can out dps a shitter dps, sure. But that's like saying you can beat some crippled kid in special ed in a foot race.
Matthew Ross
>it used to be whm/ast shitposting
I think its fair for the more experienced healers to complain considering they've only focused on making ast as strong as the other two healers despite its premise of being a jack of all trades healer. I mean he is clearly stating that he is catering to shitter players.
Ryan Smith
>BRD/MCH """armor""" looks like shit yet again thanks yoshi

Have there ever been any MNK buffs/nerfs? I didn't start playing until last summer and hit 60 in April, so I don't know if the devs care about the job at all.
Justin Hall
>start enjoying BLM >get to 60 >enochian kills any fun the class had
Robert Myers
PLD is not badly designed, it's just bad DRG is fine BRD is horribly, horribly designed in HW but it's still strong as fuck so it's like whatever
Austin Rogers
MNK is one of the few classes that actually improves with the new 50-60 skills and mechanics. Plus they've always been an easy class.
Colton Miller
It's more like AST picking a fight with WHM and SCH because of how useless they are. Every patch when they get a new buff they claim "SCH/WHM are becoming useless now!!!"
Jason Davis
great, thanks
Jordan Bennett
MNKs get buffs every other patch
Brandon Johnson
Monk doesn't need buffs or nerfs. Monk is perfect.
Samuel Martin
Why exactly do players have this mentality of x class is bad?
Just because AST is slightly worse than WHM/SCH doesn't mean it can't replace either and still be viable, yes even in progression.
Same with PLD vs DRK, like DRK is only preferred because it has an extra cooldown reserved for magic and the current raid tier prefers that, its not like its a huge fucking advantage if you bring a drk mt over a pld mt though.
Seriously, this mentality of X class is grossly overpowered is what leads the devs to do shit like homogenize classes.
Oliver Reed
they wont stop buffing monks, even though they're great
Adrian Long
WAR and SCH are objectively overpowered and irreplaceable though
Landon Gutierrez
>DRG is fine >SkS bound >Clips dots heavily >Random positional requirement on two separate buttons >Loads of worthless do-more-damage-harder OGCds

ok kid
Carson Williams
I spy a NINposter casually leaving his class out of the triumvirate of overpowered bullshit.
Jaxson Wilson
More utility soon, brother.
r-right
Thomas Adams
FFXIV is a game of numbers, and since all 3 healers have different numbers, one of the three will always be worse than the others.
if all 3 are exactly the same, whats the point of having 3?
also as says, SCH has far too much utility compared to the other two healers, and warriors simply have just better versions of abilities other tanks have.
i'd rather see classes buffed to meet the OP one because its no fun to nerf player power. just give them a bigger monster to kill imo
James Watson
Isn't that Ainu?
Brody Hernandez
AINU NO EXIST, REDFACE OKINAWAN GO BACK HOME. AINU NO REAL.
Jeremiah Perez
AST is fine now but since all those shitters wouldn't stop crying on the forums, they are going to buff AST to be stronger than SCH. Good job.
Justin Hall
there's nothing wrong with designing an ultra defensive tank that does shit damage, the problem is that damage is too fucking important in this game and there's like 3 bosses in the entire game where PLD outshines DRK
I'll give you DRG even though your only valid point is the dot clipping
James Nelson
Same I will revisit it because I love the class so much but I jumped to DRG and BotD is way easier to manage.
Ethan Miller
>drg >can't jump over anything >jumps actually make you more likely to eat a hit >can't manually target any jumps, even hellfire dive >backflip has like a 3 minute cooldown
Justin Edwards
NIN is nowhere near as important as WAR, let alone SCH
Dylan Barnes
Eno allows Blizzard IV/Fire IV and increases damages by 5%. It also weeds out the shitters, The best 3 in 1 ability.
Andrew Thompson
This is fine.
Asher Robinson
NIN is the only DPS that is mandatory. It is exactly as important as them. TA, the ability to have Slashing up on offtanked targets, strong TP regen, and enmity control are broken as fuck.
Triple melee? Has a nin. Double Ranged? Has a nin. Standard? Has a nin. Double caster? Has a nin. Monk even considered? Needs a nin to be even worth it.
Jason Bailey
I'm tired of all these WAR and SCH bandwagoners. Yes they are good designed jobs that do their role right. But it really doesn't fucking matter in this game when everything is balanced for the dumbest DF party compositions. You could beat Nidhogg Extreme with 2 PLDs, 2 ASTs, and 4 BRDs.

David Nguyen
>far to much utility Nigger you no this is a frigging exaggeration. SCH isn't that far ahead in utility to AST, the only one who has shit utility is WHM and thats because it has cure 3.
The two things AST doesn't have that SCH and WHM have are an instant aoe heal and an equivalent to DT and cure 3. Lightspeed makes up for both of these things to an extent while giving them a niche the other two healers don't have.
The only thing it TRULY lacks is a regen under noct sect which it makes up for having on demand cure 2 and medica.
Eos and selene skills aren't as big of a difference as people make it out to be. >but sch has virus Ast gets disable, with no antibody limitation >but sch gets sacred soil Collective unconcious does both asylum and SS at the same time at the expense of having to sit still >but sch gets roused whispering dawn Ast gets synastry + diurnal helios >but sch gets fey illumination Synastry also buffs heal potency and can be used to either heal two people at the same time or bomb heal the tank >but sch gets a consistent haste buff I think the fact that its only 3% is well balanced with asts rng >but mana mangement If you put it into numbers, with CO, LE gives more mana than aetherflow could, unless you're some shitter that stacks pie >but eye for an eye Rng? Just like bole?
I mean i could kee going, but I personally think its pretty balanced in terms of utility. To put it in tldr, you could say sch has a bit more control over its utility, but its definetely not something I'd consider broken.
Kevin Lee
Yoshi is under the impression that nobody cares about texture quality. He said this outright when people started asking if Dx11 would have updated textures like was originally promised.

Adrian Gonzalez
Zurvan is probably only Zurvan in name. His Japanese title means 'god with the fury of an oni'. He's probably just a crazy violent bastard with an extremely short temper.
Jonathan Nelson
My style of tanking is extremely aggressive which leads to high damage output while I still retain all of my tanking capabilities. This is achieved by min-maxing stats, learning job synergies, and understanding how to mitigate every tankbuster appropriately. This is a playstyle I have grown accustomed to, which basically means that if you suck shit and your playstyle is garbage then my methods will not be effective at all.
Oh yeah, look forward to Fanfest.

New jobs as follow recently leaked: >Red Mage as a Melee Magic based DPS, their weapon of choice will be a rapier. They will work similar to spellfencers meaning that they can imbue their weapon with different magic effects. They have a few utility abilities like a MP goad for party members and can also apply magic resistance down to enemies. Finally, they have a few ranged spells but they aren't as potent as Black Mage's spells. >Beast Master is a Melee Pet based Tank, they can summon different pets with different functions similar to how Summoners can summon different egis. They have a large pet that tanks for them, they have a smaller pet that does good single target DPS, and they have another pet that focuses primarily on decent AoE damage. The Beast Master dual wields one handed axes and is designed to be a off tank job similar to Warrior but they can main tank well if they micromanage their tank pet effectively.

I fundamentally agree with you, and think the only thing AST really lacks are deployment tactics- which is only relevant for J storm's 34k aoe which only THREE astrologians have EVER done in noct stance successfully- and lack of cure 3 which is seriously difficult to make up for. However, your breaking it down fundamentally doesn't work.
>virus vs disable Don't work on the same thing. Disable doesn't work on anything with a set amount of damage dealt, including all split damage and every J-attack. Disable also lasts 6 seconds, not 10 and thus affects fewer things while it's active. >soil vs CU CU is excellent, but stunning the AST means you can't put it up before the attack lands without wandering into a dangerous zone, and if you put it up "on time" server tick often doesn't give you the damage reduction. e.g. super jump -> J kick. >roused dawn vs synastry + diurnal helios While you're correct, you're comparing a WHM stance AST with a SCH. Compare SCH stance AST with SCH or shut the fuck up. >fey vs synastry But you've already used synastry in the above description? So synastry is on cooldown (which is 30s longer than divine seal might I add), and so you're actually comparing fey on sch with nothing on ast. Clearly ast loses this one. If they are both up, they're fundamentally identical. >haste vs cards Agreed. >mana management This isn't true. CO cannot be used for "mana management" as its shield effect is mandatory for mechanics. I assume by LE you mean LA, and I'm sorry but you're factually wrong. SCH can use energy drain in a pinch, AST simply has to roll ewer or it's fucked when it's low, which weakens its card effect. If neither can do this, then they both get ballad so claiming "but the ast gets a ballad" is bullshit, if you were about to. >E4AE is rng No. It lasts 30 seconds and autoattacks trigger it. You can guarantee it for every single heavy damage attack in the game except double rocket punch.
t. BiS raid AST.

I think they're gonna keep going with the high deeps/low utility tradeoff. Giving them more utility would only hinder other people from choosing the other melee jobs.
Ayden Nelson
they have this strange idea that every thing they've done in the last few months will be reduced to nothing because its suddenly possible to get stronger.
nevermind that there are numerical requirements to get into some instances. must be a bitch to log in and have your character reset to level 1 every 3 months

In the cinematics the WoDs are just the stand ins for the player character, from an advertising/promo standpoint.
But in game they are actual people of their own from an alternate reality or something, who were probably playing very similar roles to you before their own universe went to shit. Whatever it is we'll find out next week.
Henry Jackson
Literally nothing. If you actually played 1.X to completion and then imported that character to 2.0, every NPC immediately recognises you (and imply your party) as the WoL that Louisoix teleported who then vanished- you quickly realise he teleported you into the future by accident. Any kind of conjecture of "the WoDs are actually WoLs that Louisoix teleported!" or any of this shit simply comes from uninformed people. Hydaelyn confirms (in her retarded language) after Antitower that she's an/the original god, and when she separated Zodiark from herself the universe/dimensions split into 14 separate versions that will eventually collapse into the "core", where the core has zodiark and hydaelyn as one again. The WoDs are WoLs that originated from a now-collapsed universe (that the ascians (or that universe's ascians if they aren't exempt from the split like hydaelyn and zodiark are) teleported to our functioning dimension). They are not the 1.0 WoLs. That's us.

Nope. I can't remember if you need to do normal mode first. I think they changed that in 3.2

Nicholas Parker
But I'm logging on the moment the servers are up, then my raid team and I are going to clear all of alex normal and get server first alexander clears, just like every patch. I won't have to worry about most of this.
Jacob Long
You have to do each normal mode to unlock their respective savage, and to unlock the next normal mode. What you don't have to do is complete each savage to unlock the next savage.
Jason Thompson
>sounds like a personal problem user Sure. PF groups by people who want you to watch a video first before joining their ""farming"" on the first day are just my problem.
Brody Murphy
I jumped from drg to blm in 3.3 due to static falling apart and find it the opposite. There was a few times in midas where my botd was fucked because of stuff outside my control like the tank deciding go drag the boss during my second opener in a7s, when I was 2s away from refreshing
Brayden Cook
Yeah. Having to resort to PF instead of having friends is EXACTLY your personal problem. Thanks for confirming.
Elijah Foster
That's not voice acted and in multiple long-running cutscenes

Evan Myers
You're on patch 2.2 right now. So three patches of MSQ to get to 2.5, then 2.55's short quests but long cutscenes, and then finally you can do heavensward.
No, I got the point exactly. But if you didn't have your PERSONAL PROBLEM you'd be ignoring nearly all of the stuff you listed as it wouldn't affect you. But because you suffer your PERSONAL PROBLEM, you're wondering if other people are "ready for it" so you can share stories, despite the fact it's your PERSONAL PROBLEM. What actually happened is I understood it perfectly and you're retarded, but you're SO retarded you don't even understand when other people understand you. Go get yourself tested for Asperger's. I'd take a hundred quid bet you suffer from it.

I haven't got around to savage raid content and I'm still relatively new. Maybe it will get harder but it feels more natural to me.
I lost DPS trying to manage enochian it doesn't mesh with me at all. Normally I can just tough it out and try to learn but its a fucking hassle and a training dummy doesn't teach much. I don't want to join a roulette or a dungeon and suck massive shit especially since I do decent with DRG in comparison.
Robert Phillips
>Going this far to antagonize someone dreading common problems of day 1 large patches.
This is starting to get annoying and I'm seeing it pop up way more. Especially with legit issues with the game. This retarded I got mine fuck you behavior especially on Cred Forums makes NO sense at all.
Benjamin Young
Yeah man. Some jobs and their rotations will gel with you more than others. My only advice is play a job you love and not kinda like. I found that out by the end of 3.2 that I hated drg and was already dropping hints to my static I wasn't going to be around in 3.4 playing it
Camden Miller
The thing is until 60 I LOVED black mage. I was literally in bed just thinking about if I just go and continue on my BLM and gear up for 60. I'm so torn on this. I could gear both but with lockouts and all that shit I won't be able to do it efficiently and have to choose one now.
I honestly want to play BLM again.
Asher Long
you think BLM has it bad, think about all the BRD mains
Benjamin Sanders
Amazing that a game with a billion cutscenes can't take 5 minutes to explain this seemingly important bullshit better.
Luke Watson
It did explain it. You just didn't pay attention.
Isaac Martinez
The only truly required crossclass skill is provoke. All the others add maybe 5-6% overall DPS at most.

Ian Mitchell
I must be the only one who thinks this looks nice.
Eli Moore
You're only on 2.1 actually. 2.2 and 2.3 are pretty shit, but it gets drastically better at 2.4 and beyond.
I wouldn't rush it though. Take your time and do all the good level 50 content while you're there. Especially the Crystal Tower 24-man raids, which you can unlock right now in Mor Dhona.
Oliver Sullivan
I would have remembered something about being split into 14 different universes.

Rewatch the Antitower cutscene. It's the main thing she talks about. "Across ten and four we were divided, reflections of the Source" or something like that.
Tyler Martin
>still not getting the point A retard is you.
Landon Adams
This guy is just posting theories as fact. None of this is even remotely confirmed yet.
If the parallel universe thing turns out to be true however, then it's a sure bet that the Warriors of Darkness ARE the characters from the cinematics, and that those took place in an alternate universe where the same shit happened.
Elijah Roberts
Oh, right... across ten and four, clear as day. My mistake.
Liam Nguyen
>#10 in roulette >gotta take a piss, obviously won't be ready by the time I get back >get back in under two minutes to see it count down to one second and withdraw

You really need to rewatch the Antitower cutscene. It's not a theory. It's straight up fucking fact that Hydaelyn herself tells you.
Not the game's fault you have a poor grasp on the English language.
Anthony Ross
This is a joke right? How the fuck do you get banned for that

It's across ten and three, and four. And there's absolutely nothing even remotely hinting to other universes. Could be talking about those crystals you're always activating for all we know.
But congrats on making me watch that stupid shit again.

Not nearly as many as female elusive outfits, and every existing male-locked outfit has a strong chance of getting a female version.

I'm pretty sure automatic house demolishing was introduced because people who quit a year ago still had housing hogged up.

The reason why automatic house demolishing was introduced is because people continue to go to incredibly overpopulated servers despite getting multiple warnings that the servers are grossly overpopulated and that they really shouldn't go there.
That, and the fact that SE fucked up by going against their word and making personal housing the same as FC housing

This. DRG is dull as shit until you get to 50 and beyond.
Thomas Thompson
This is true, but it doesnt take that long to level classes/jobs anymore anyways. Only grindy bit is 53-58 which isn't nearly as bad as LNC once was. Do PotD or something, get a somewhat okay 235 weapon for your trouble and see how the end game skills are.
I love DRG myself. Huge numbers, tight rotations (when you hit the Sks sweetspot anyway).
Oliver Sanchez
They added more housing plots just a few months ago.

I just came back after a 6+month break from the game and there's just as many plots now as it was then.

Hudson Allen
I'm sitting on about 400m I have a private room in a Free Company with friends
Playing dress up and making an effort to get more than one place to furnish is the most nu-male thing you can do in this game, short of literally getting cucked.
No idea why people are throwing a fit about you trying to get more than one apartment, since there's going to be plenty to go around even on containment servers like Balmung, but you're literally acting like babbies first 1m the way you talk about an extremely easily obtained currency on a dying game.
Got back into the game after two years of absence a couple weeks ago, just finished the main Heavensward story. Still have a metric fuckton of shit to do
Charles Turner
You don't deserve it. Your culture is dead and you're a drain on society. Go overdose on meth already.

It has abysmal AoE damage and some people consider that it has unnecessarily large amount of Defensive skills, but no one will really care about what you play unless you play it wrong.
Brody Peterson
>He doesn't RMT it
lol why even make gil if you're not gonna use it, turbocuck
Ayden Mitchell
It's not the greatest right now, but it does just fine. I do 1.1k on mine, but it's really more of a raid tank than a dungeon tank. You won't be a burden if you play well, that's really the main thing that'll separate you from the rest. I've carried so many parties as my PLD.
I mean, I'd love some WAR-tier buffs so I can fuck shit up more, but I get 4k royal authorities so I wont complain too much. Try and grab a nin if you can for dem buffs and practice switching stances so you can maximise output. What I like about PLD is that it really forces you to work for your output, you cant just spam overpower/steel cyclone and get away with it. Every tank should be forced to do GLA/PLD before being allowed to touch the other tanks, it's a great way to learn the fundamentals you need for proper tanking.
And at the end of the day, sword and board is just the most aesthetic way to tank. I love that shit.
Dylan Clark
>spending your time in an online game trying to convert an inflated currency into pennies.
SE doesn't do shit about people who involve themselves with RMT and that's still a complete waste of time.

PLD is the most popular tank because it's the simplest. If you're planning on getting into raiding, I would recommend going with WAR or DRK just because they're played less (though honestly with the state of raiding as it is right now, you could get a group as a GLD).
If you're just leveling PLD for DF groups, then don't worry about being a burden on your parties. Player skill is much more important. If you're not a retard, your party will love you no matter what job you're playing.
Jeremiah Carter

Zachary Wilson
>he spends his time making 900m a month for a meager $450
You could literally work at the lowest facilities in the country for a week and still make more than that with even more freedom, both being a wageslave though chances are you're not gonna be some chinks cuck at a regular job.
May as well do it for free, which literally no one would put past you I'm sure.
A low tier bait, but if it's true it definitely explains the cuck attitude about a non-tangible housing system.

There's your problem. Balmung it's $5-6 per million to a reliable reseller. That means 90m, which is super easy to get while I bot in my sleep.
But yeah let's feel better by calling me a cuck while you sit on 400m and spend it on absolutely nothing.
Landon Davis
Probably at least a million gil. XIV's economy is kind of weird compared to wow and their wowtoken, in that the game basically throws money at you for free with things like free V materia through weeping/potd, which is like 250k gil a pop.
It's hard to imagine it costing anything less than a million since you would basically pay for your month by running potd a couple of times.
Gavin Allen
Dunno about you but I was hyped to make my MCH a gunslinger. Still waiting on a good duster though.
Blake Russell
>He actually thinks he can sell gil for more cash than the chinks are selling it for. Why the fuck would gold sellers buy 10m for $, 50-60 when they sell it for less than 100m for $50-60
Brody Collins
RDM will be healer with some stupid gimmick but still better than Astro
Owen Peterson
AST is on par with WHM right now and is apparently getting buffs this patch that are so good they make the devs scared to implement them. Think about it.
Gabriel Price
Because most people don't buy shit from dumb chinks who get their accounts banned in a week and will pay more from an American seller.
Thomas Cruz
Because on Balmung bots get deleted in front of your eyes so they rely on content sellers to sell them gil. I kind of wish it was like Guild Wars where when you saw someone get fucking banned a giant fucking scythe would come up and crush their character out of existence.
Jayden Thomas
AST been giving buffs since 3.0 because they are that awful.
Zachary White
But have been fine since the last buff. Think about how large this one will be considering the emphasis they place on reworking the cards and shielding. This won't merely be a potency increase.

Michael Peterson
Is there a point playing the maintain-botd game for dragoons during short term aoe encounters? (like dungeon trash for example).
Seems pointless from a potency per second standpoint when I can just dot everyone once with phleb and then spam doom spike.
I'll pop botd just to get one geirskogul off and lose it immediately, but it feels kind of sacrilegious compared to how its used in sustained single target where dropping it is a meme.
Chase Moore
If you do a big trash pull that is AoEble, just spam doomspike. You could use BoTD once and use Geriskogul as well.
Adam Williams
Craft some greens and blues and turn them in for the easiest seals of your life
Cooper Torres
should i main warrior or paladin if im planning to be a main tank
Wyatt Turner
well the obvious answer is if the skill is going to be on cooldown when you need it afterwards, don't use it. if it will be up for then, then do use it because free 200 potency. also don't phleb for aoe, just heavy and doom spike
Isaac Robinson
What greens and blues? Most of that shit has been downgraded to only give you 300-400 GC seals or so.
Dominic Wright
What I always do is HT > ID > DIS >(Botd) CT > Geirskogul > Doomspike spam > Geirskogul before BotD runs out
I haven't quite done the math to see if the extra Geirskogul is worth having to do an ID > DIS > CT combo on a single target, but it also helps stop the TP drain that Doomspike Spam does.

So will apartments have magical doors where everyone lives in the same room like FC rooms or will we get our own door?
Jordan Sanders
The former probably or maybe talk to an NPC to go to your room like inn rooms.
Thomas Walker
...
Jason Phillips
You have no idea what you have to go through to be accepted as a cute cat in Odin. I think I spent almost 50€ now on Fantasia only to get the perfect cat. I had to sample through the top 100 cutest cats in Odin to get it right.
Kevin Scott
>4k with royal authority
user, why are you lying?
Cameron Flores
>500K to get an inn room that you can decorate
Brave YoshiP
Connor Cooper
I'm not. It's called min-maxing user. Probably above your level, this is 4chins after all. I'll fetch my stats and post them in the next thread that pops up (maybe even a screenshot of the hit if you're lucky!).
Of course, I don't need to validate what I know against you or anyone else. I just don't want this poor newby user to get the wrong idea because of meme spouters. You play PLD right you can get some decent damage.
Not to say it isn't still marred by shit damage and poor aoe. That sword/board love is strong though
Bentley Reed
I mean I wish the place was more of a rectangle and you could place some preset windows but how did people believe that there would somehow be 3,000 fully made apartments with a balcony?
Easton Rogers
>What are you guys doing with the week
not playing that shitty excuse for an MMO
Ryder Sanchez
oddly enough the vast demand for housing in Balmung would be curbed if they just let people go to the same Inn room
Levi Gonzalez
preach it shield brother, im a PLD too, how do you get those big dick numbers, my best royal authority was like 2.6k
Jordan Barnes
I don't give a fuck about the room, I'm paying for that sweet, sweet teleport.
GC - Goblet Personal house - Lavender Beds Apartment - Mist
No more will I have to click on the Limsa Aetheryte like a pleb.
Hudson Harris
Even with min-maxing and stuff. My PLD has an ilvl of 238 and hits only for 2.2k damage. And that's already with the 30% buff. Also if you use a potion, which is locked behind a 5 min cooldown, you can't really say you hit for 4k if you can only do it thrice in 5 minutes.
Jose Rivera
245 weapon
Easton Long
I gave everything I owned to someone who hates me and deleted my character.
should I come back to this game?
Noah Jenkins
damn... you sure told him....
Jayden Roberts
You don't seem to be someone who should waste his time on an MMO
Leo Butler
cuck
Samuel Reed
I fucking love those Aerie weapon skins though.
Blake Bailey
For one, I hope you're as BIS as you can be. I'm still using 220 pants over anything else cos the fucking 230 pants wont drop in the 24 man and my static died shortly after Sephirot (really it's real life shit right now keeping me away. Everything's done though so meh).
Just min max stats; if you cant stack crit, do det, remove all parry. I use as many grade V crit/det materia as I can (I craft so gil is no object really). Make a nin buddy, and practice stance dancing. PLD aoe isn't the best, but single target needn't be shit. Practice on SSS if need be.
Dont get me wrong PLD still needs to be reworked some. But there's no reason it should be as shit as Cred Forums would suggest. No WAR/DRK/PLD can keep aggro from me if i want it. Lucky for them, I'd rather sword oath/DPS and provide cover based mitigation
Dominic Sanchez
With every new patch my Ocelot cosplay gets closer. Now if only the guns weren't awfully disproportionate.
Aiden Long
So what? Hitting 4k a couple of times means it doesn't count? Dont tell that to the BLMs with their five IVs they may shit themselves. Anyway, my 4k RAs are fairly regular. Not every hit I admit, but regular enough. I outdps a lot of folk.
To be fair to folk, if luck stat is a thing in this game, I'm pretty sure mine is sky high. I get mounts, weapons, everything first or second run without issue.
Jaxon Rivera
Me too and I have them already but there's no excuse for recycling this shit.
Especially since crafted gear will cost a buttload of gil, I want something new for this money. They put "new" gear in 3.2. It's making me angry
Tyler Price
How do you know if you're cat is fine or not? Just go what with you like.
Nathaniel Murphy
Heh my bad, I've had it so long I forgot. I use a 240 relic. Muh selected stats and all that.
Camden Rivera
Ocelot from what game? Do you have the PVP revolver?
Gabriel Robinson
they probably did it to A: make it easier to get said skins and B: make people not have to buy a 5 million gil weapon for an appearance
Aaron Harris
then you are doing something wrong buddy, because my PLD is ilvl 221 and hits for like 2.6k
Kevin Perry
I do!
Young Ocelot is possible to pull off and so is Le Cowboy Ocelot. I'm just not sure which one to do.
Brayden Collins
Pre-imperial Garlean revolver a best
Parker Morales
how was the grind, how long did you take between the hyperconductive to the next stage of the relic?
Are you guys counting critical hits as normal damage now are you just fucking with me?
Bentley Thomas
I did it fairly casually, so a little while. I knew I didn't need the 240 to clear content so it was more a glamour thing (plus a little usefulness). I just casually did PotD and Exs each day for a few weeks, which FCmates generally needed anyway and I like trying new stuff in dungeons to try and improve my DPS. So yeah, I guess somewhere around a month as I did it? Totally doable in far less time if you grind it, but I wasn't fussed. Thegns is okay but doesnt look as nice as Almace anyway, and the stats were still good pre-selection stage.
I expect they'll nerf it next patch as per desu. Hold off if you can.
Benjamin Thomas
there is straight up a red beret in the game.
either I'm hysterical and I dyed it red, I believe there is two of them level 1 one being red and one being green with a pomp.
James Anderson
thanks man, im currently getting aether oils for the hyperconductive, hope they nerf it soon
Easton Thompson
See this is what pisses my nin off, with his +1300 crit spec.
I crit far more than I normal hit. More than 60% of my hits crit. But my normal hits still match with the other anons'.
Tell us your stats, let us help if we can. Everyone loves a badass pld
Ryder Gonzalez
I'd like the Sophia and Zurvan fights to be narratively something more than just, "Shit's waking up. Go to the containment bay and kick its ass."
Luis Bell
aether oils you;ll find a piece of piss. I'm not sure, but can you buy umbrites yet? Cos if you can, you'd be wiser to buy those and just take the one oil each week. That'll shorten the grind so much- at least if you have a blue scrip gatherer/crafter.
Ask whatever you need. Cred Forums is full of faggots, but this faggot is happy to help
Henry Kelly
Well, my static pretty much changed me from a PLD to a WAR since they needed an off-tank. But I'm sure you can also give me some tips on how to improve my WAR. What stats should I look for? Also I'm piss poor so crafted gear is a big no no for me.
William Walker
Should I go NIN or SMN for the next patch?
Gabriel Taylor
>crafted weapons will be better than sophia's >sophia weapons reduced to glamour fodder on day 1
Landon Moore
Holy shit this triggers me too, whats with their side cape fetish? i want a dress or the thing actually covering both sides, what the fuck!
Levi Thompson
Depends, what classes you got so far?
William Thomas
SMN only if you want to play the easiest dps class.
Mason Johnson
Will monk be the expansion's main job? Like goon was in HW?
Samuel Brooks
Do we have actual numbers yet? Because I was expecting crafted to be 250 with sophy weapons being 255.
Jeremiah Thompson
On my server people usually look for melee DPS since you usually take two anyway. You gotta decide if you're more of a melee person or a dot person. Personally I fucking hate dots.
Michael Flores
I currently main SMN but thinking about playing a NIN. When I started playing SMN nearly none played them but now everyone plays them and it feels a little sad. NIN is really fun but sadly got not good aoe damage.
Brandon Bennett
>roulette trial Nidhoegg >suddenly massive lag >everything delayed >can't properly do stuff and even die once >we can't kill the last add >decide to leave so that they might get a DPS without lag >tell them that I leave and why >suddenly someone else saying "low dps" + ragequit Curious.
Jacob Perez
Pretty much why I stick with paladin
Jose Morris
I dont have a blue script gatherer/crafter, the only char I have is my PLD and dont really have the patience to lvl up another class
Caleb Perry
what ast card combos should I be using on which jobs? Anything especially powerful, should I only be using royal road cards?
Kevin Jones
I'd play NIN just for the glams desu
Adam Hernandez
NIN's AoE got a considerable buff. You're not going to beat a caster but that's par for the course with melee.
Jordan Turner
slap down your cards on the Bard. all 6 of them
Jose Butler
Yes, rebuild the fist of Rhalgr
Hunter Harris
That's probably the case and materia melds will push crafted over sophia weapons
Isaiah Barnes
I can understand that. I use WAR for 24 mans/dungeons etc cos i dont MT those and I love dem FCs. The damage is great and the buffs WAR offers help a lot.
Honestly for any tank I'd say the same. Max crit, then det, str Vs on guaranteed accessory slots and crit/det on the rest. CRIT is your priority, det just makes life easier for healers. nothing else is worthwhile. If you have any parry above the minimum GET RID OF IT. Parry fucking sucks. I dont give a shit what any Mr Pro tank says, Parry is fucking garbage. DRK has skills that proc for parry if they need it, pointless to stack for them too,
All crit/det all day erry day. Totally possible to a respectable level with proto midan/yafaemi/lore gear. I' m a cheap fuck that only crafts glamours for myself (cos Iknow i'll just take the savage gear as I get it). remove parry, prioritise crit (then det). Wow all the bitches here with your big dick tank deeps.. My WAR's FCs are 10k currently (still stuck with Parashu, axe wont drop from Nidhogg :/)
Jacob Nguyen
You should be fine as long as you get company seals. You can also look for Amber which you find in treasure chests doing levequests. And thanks to dailies, you get poetics real fast which you also can trade in for items you need for the relic.
Aiden Ross
Didn't they want to rework the parry stat in the next patch?
Joseph Roberts
NIN glam is cute and sexy. But mostly sexy.
Brody Morgan
Ah well.........the sand will be a sticking point. Have a look online (it'll be more useful than I) at the list of things the NPC will accept in exchange for crystal sand. Elemental IVs, moonstones, amber saps etc. This was simple for me since all i had to do was gather some Morel/cuprite. Will take you a bit longer, but if you start on it now it shouldn't be a hinderance
Carter Green
Final question, Str potion or Vit potion?
Nathaniel Walker
They said 3.4 at the earliest, 4.0 at the latest. It probably got pushed back.
Alexander Evans
Meanwhile MNK glams are boring or nonexistent
Landon Carter
They say they will, but honestly I expect nothing. They're great at claiming this shit and terrible at actually doing it.
Juan Brown
C: They're too lazy/mismanaged to make new assets
Charles Moore
Vit. Both give the same buff to attack (as far as I'm aware), but vit still boosts hp as well. Not that any tank should need it, but why not eh? I mean, unless the mats to make the str is a lot cheaper I guess.
Alexander Diaz
>det just makes life easier for healers ??? Det does not increase heals you receive, only heals and damage you deal
Isaiah Fisher
that is THE reason. THEIR reason is A or B
Connor Ramirez
There are three different berets in the game, and despite being called Red Beret, Green Beret and (I think) White Beret, you can dye them all.
Bentley Myers
I'm a PLD main so ;p
Isaiah Perez
That'd be neat.
Luke Perry
Would it be fair to call Ethys liberal scum/an sjw.
Sebastian Rodriguez
Shit I was planning to do this with my other 5 friends, guess we'll have to queue this fucker as soon as we can.
I need the WoL set.
Luke Jackson
My clemencies hit 8k-13k for what it's worth.
Grayson Thompson
He likes to ignore facts that disagree with his theories, so yes.
Caleb Reed
I thought I enjoyed playing PLD at 50, but now that I'm used to my level 60 abilities I want to kill myself when I'm doing level sync'd content. I don't know how I ever found that job fun before it had a proper DPS combo and heal.
Logan Hernandez
Example?
Ryder Thomas
What the fuck is an Ethys? Are you trying to bring /vg/ shit over here?
Kayden Baker
All in the experience. I feel the exact same way. Kills me to go back, but I do for the tomes in roulettes (when it happens) sometimes you just gotta get on with shit.
Dominic Allen
His Unukalhai """theory""" is full of holes. He bases it entirely on the idea that Gaius -might- have had a kid in Ala Mhigo and -might- have abandoned him and he -might- have Echo, even though Unukalhai straight up tells you he only has a power similar to Echo and is from another world.
His Yda theory that's gotten insanely popular says that she's lost Ala Mhigan royalty based entirely on the idea that she's an idiot. It ignores that the only known child of Theodoric is a man. It ignores that Sharlayan has a strict neutrality policy and wouldn't have taken in royalty especially when they were doing everything possible to avoid war with Garlemald at the time. It ignores that her tattoo signifies mastery over her chosen area of study, which means she's not actually stupid.
Leo Jenkins
Very very wrong.
AF1 MNK armor is perfection.
Lincoln Jenkins
Ethys is the reason why we don't have more Yda fanart.
Easton Green
I quite like him and his content analysis of the lore but yeah I did not like those 2 theories the Unukalhai one was far worse though, and at least Yda does seem to be related to Ala Mhigo with the way the story is heading
Nicholas Hall
Except for the color. I'm glad they made a way for them to be dyed.
Nicholas Green
>It ignores that Sharlayan has a strict neutrality policy and wouldn't have taken in royalty especially when they were doing everything possible to avoid war with Garlemald at the time.
Higher scholars like Louis and Matoya had the clout to do shit on their own prerogative, not Sharlayan's. It was Louisoix who took Yda in.
Matthew Wright
Finally hit level 59, so I'll likely get through Heavensward just in time for the new content.
