me and my husband

are FATEs still the most efficient way to level? I just solo'd one at my level and only got 7,000 xp, seems pretty trash.

>>181329563
Palace of the Dead is, but only up until level 60.

Person who made this thread, can you make the next one too? Basically anything so that idiot won't force himself anymore.

Right now it should be doing PvP depending on your level.

Where the fuck is the summer event?

>>181329563
Potd is better if you're a dps. Stormblood fates can give up to 900k exp (boss fate+2x exp bonus)

I made the thread because we were almost at the bump limit, not because I have a vendetta against someone. I'll check back throughout the day when I'm not playing video games or working to see if another one needs to be made, though.

I'm going to marry a Lalafell!

Yes but when you finish 10 floors you get a exp chunk equivalent to what your real character level.

You start at level 1 inside the instance and gradually gain levels as you kill monsters. When you exit the instance upon completion of a successful run, you're granted EXP for your overworld level.

talking about it can get confusing, but by the time you reach floor 50, your character level in palace of the dead will be 60. when you beat the boss on floor 50 you get the option to start on floor 51 instead of floor 1, which is valuable because starting at floor 51 puts your character level at 60, so you have the majority of your skills.

most people will continuously speedrun 51-60 repeatedly for the most xp. with a decent group, 10-12 minute runs are possible which grant by far the most xp possible until your character reaches level 60 outside of palace of the dead.

here's a graph showing how much xp a run will give you from levels 51-60.

>>181330140
On a side note, pvp at 60 gives 580k ish exp and sirensong dungeon gives roughly 1.7m with your typical exp bonuses (FC, food, rested)

>>181330062
Does doing the MSQ for ARR > HW > SB get a first character to 70?

New player here, what server should I play on? (EU)

>>181330140
How is pvp compared to this?

I want to level DRK but dungeons at 30 are boring

potd is pretty boring too.

>>181330314
Yes, you can even save a bunch of sidequests to level alt jobs too, though don't expect to get another 70 off them but they give a nice boost.

Why did Seto do that?

>>181330384
Oh good. I've been skipping like every single sidequest

good thread; psychopath hasnt managed to force himself

>>181330140
50% armory and 100% armory what do those mean? I know it has to do with your having a max level character but when do you get one or the other?

>>181330338
There are a number of new worlds that grant bonuses for new characters at this time that you might find appealing. Here's information on it.

potd til 60, then pvp 60 -70.

consider a jump potion.

>>181330448
100% armory bonus applies all the way to 60 I believe. You only get 50% from 61 until 70.

This is when leveling a combat class lower than your max level combat class.

>>181330367
this guy has the right of it: >>181330254

Basically, potd is the most efficient thing to do until 60. If you have access to fast queues (you or a buddy you queue with plays healer or tank) dungeons break even until ~57ish, at which point they start to become slightly more efficient.

Below 57: POTD>Dungeon spam>PVP
57-60: Dungeons>POTD>PVP
Above 60: Dungeons>PVP

Reminder, doing things that aren't fun to you at all is a fast-track to burnout. I would encourage you to do the things you find the most fun at the time, regardless of efficiency. If you're not having fun there's no point in playing.

is it really that hard for the tank to put reprisal on the boss when a dps gets marked, or for the healers to put up some mitigation, and for people to press vril at the right times

jeez
i just want to farm for the doggo but this shit is hopeless on PF when im getting 1 run done per hour

I just got off the phone with Yoshi and he told be the next 2 jobs.

One is a healer and the other is a DPS_

>>181333373
Farm parties are traps right now, for no real reason. I still don't understand how people struggle with Susano EX, but apparently joining a farm for that doesn't mean you'll actually clear

wiping on lakshmi farm parties on the other hand is inexcusable though in my opinion, since it's literally "pop vril to win", yet people STILL don't pop vril at the right time

Thank you anon. What a weird exploit (glitch?) of the Red Mage job.

Farm trap parties exist because people paid for their carry or they got lucky/carried hard by a previous group and somehow cleared. I've seen it happen where a few clueless DPS clear susanoex just because they get lucky and they don't get target by any mechanic.

How much experience and how many wolf marks do you get in Wolves' Den?

Does the new server exp bonus apply to DoH/L classes? And how long is the promotion? I have a level 45 monk on another server and I'm wondering if I should start over (again).

>>181333937
Can't you move the 45 monk to the promoted servers for free?
And yes I think it does

>>181333692
>>181333748
The sad thing is, it's never the cloud that seems to wipe the "farm" parties. It's usually people not moving with the Levinbolt marker, and the healers not healing through it, so the next levinbolt person handles the mechanic but dies to the bolt then electrocution on the other side. Or healers not dodging big circles. I've had to raise healers a lot more than I'd like to

>>181333798
There really should be another PF option where people who not only cleared but have multiple clears (3 or more) can only join your group.

>>181333736
Wonder when they will fix it. Or if at all.

>>181334013
From what I read the exp bonus only applies to newly created characters and not transfers. I don't know for sure though.

>>181333736

From my experience it's usually the white mages that fuck up the healing. They have no party wide shields so if they lag for a second on Ukehi for whatever reason then the group is finished.

>>181334203
It's a bit weird, if only because I can't see any difference between Ukehi or Sophia's Cintamani at 60, they should be able to heal through it easily

>>181334430
>needing to be told mechanics

You should know how to dodge and you should know the basic telegraphs

>>181334717
No hes saying that 9/10 mechanics in Menagerie are either painfully obvious or moves you've seen before in the game. Almost all the fight is recycled skills.

>>181334727
Tanks have it good. You can actually do dungeons in a timely manner. The absolute fastest might still be spamming PoTD, but doing a mix of PoTD and normal dungeons and even Frontlines might keep you sane and won't slow you down by much.

549KB, 1440x1080px

This expansion looks very unfair for the DPS classes in general.
Let's just go over some of the DPS classes again...

Melee:

DRG: Complicated as hell, an utter mess of long animation OGCDs, a bunch of priorities, a timer that can fall off, positionals that range from 100-180 and 200-290 if missed (and you'll miss them given the ridiculous amount of times bosses spin this time around). Jumps still locking you. A complete nightmare of a class.
Numbers? On the very bottom.

Meanwhile, you have SAM, which has no timers, positionals barely punish you, barely OGCDs and a pretty noob friendly rotation.
Numbers? Ludicrously high.


Casters

BLM: While not super complex, still extremely punishing and immobile due to permahardcasts and AF and UI timers. Has no utility.
Numbers? Lower than they should be.

SMN: Complex and punishing as hell. Missing an aetherflow this time around is twice as punishing as it was before, there's a lot of thought into when DWTs are used and/or if it's a good idea to delay Bahamut and a long etc. Class is hard as hell to optimize. Has some utility.
Numbers? Slightly lower than the other 2 casters.

RDM: No timers, barely punishes you for pressing the wrong button, mobile as hell (50% of its casts are instant), noob friendly rotation, has utility.
Numbers? At the top.

Ranged Supp

Haven't played these two classes but from what I've heard:

MCH: Hard as hell, barely any utility, ridiculosly low DPS.

BRD: Relatively easy, has a lot of utility, very high DPS.


Why are easier classes blatantly overshadowing the most complex ones? Shouldn't it be the opposite? High risk high reward no?

To be fair, we don't actually need Allagans around for such a creation to have been conceived.

Even without the Allagan influence in the world, the construction of Void Ark is something that goes to show that other civilizations were pretty competent.

He's beaten the Warrior of Light several times, he let you live specifically so you could get stronger, not the other way around. He wanted to show you the true power of the Echo, and to do battle in such a way that you'd both go down in history.

>>181338942
They made a lot of changes with 4.0, anon.

Remove all those Grey Xed out skills from your hotbar and replace them, Cleric Stance, Lucid Dreaming, Esune, etc. Cross classes have disappeared so that people can just level one class if they want, streamlined.

They also combined a lot of spells into one that changes, Aero, Thunder, Misama, etc.

>>181338841

It was kind of dumb how he whoops your ass twice then you can suddenly beat him in the 4-man. I understand they wanted to establish him as a powerhouse but there's other ways to do that then beating the player character in unwinnable fights.

>>181338942
Yoshi went full retard and decided to make a bunch of mandatory skills into (((optional))) role skills, and also gutted a lot of skills. Things like Aero automatically turn into Aero II as well as other dots so you have one less dot to manage on all jobs.

turn off discord overlay

>>181339453
This happened to me before. Its Discord.

Try turning off the overlay.

Am I the only one who thinks DRK animations look bad? especially how they hold their weapon and run.

I really enjoy their theme but WAR looks way cooler to me.

Well I was going for a light rouge effect

But those look just right given the weapon type.

>anon gets insulted
>demands to see the character of people insulting them so they can shit on them, too, regardless of what they look like

Your barbie dress-up simulator pixels are all beautiful and unique, stop fighting like middle school girls.

You know what would be good game design? Giving everyone back Rampart, Esuna, Protect, and MP regen skills and then actually giving you 10 unique things to pick from instead of 4/5 of them being mandatory or obvious choices.

Wait what are you drunk? Judgment bolt is lightning and its the most iconic attack of Ramuh the lightning primal. Anyone with common sense would not stand in a puddle of water when lightning was happening, but would when fire was happening. How can people mess these up?

>>181339904
What ever the fuck do you mean, that makes too much sense

Was the sarcasm not to obvious?

That is more than a valid thing, he says that his character is alot better looking, more unique and all that but has nothing to back it up with.
He's just shits on people using a new good looking set only because it's popular, he's worst than a hipster.

But he never implied that his character was better looking, anon, just that the SB slutglam is fucking boring after seeing 3,000 people wearing the same thing, which it is.
