someone explain what the fuck is going on with this game's playerbase. These were level 60s leveling alts and I started playing this game 2 days ago.
>>
because leveling doesnt require you to learn anything and being 60 gives you no understanding of your job

3 years since i started and tanks still use no cds and healer dont dps

What's the fastest way to improve item level? Should I even bother with Alexander, or skip him and go straight for Dun Scaith?

Raid DS give you ilvl 260 gear.
Then you can get scripture and buy ilvl 260 gear that you can upgrade to ilvl270.
>>
>>376079173
Dun Scaith asap (5m queues). Alexander queues can go from 10m-30m. Sometimes 5 during popular time or something. But Dun Scaith is instant q all day. Also it's not as hard as Alexander so you won't be dying to shitty healers not being able to do content at its ilvl.

Apparently Diadem weapons are 280? Is it worth going for those, or should I just saddle up for the Anima Weapon grind?
>>
>>376079783
Diadem isn't worth it and it's dead now anyway.
Basically you have to wait for a specific timed fate called "Emergency Mission" where you need at the minimum 4 groups to win with it.
Then you have to get lucky and by one of the people who receive the weapon.
I did 20 EM and never got one so I gave up.

The quest hub in 4.0 is in Ala Mhigo. The resistance front at the mountain. The main city (Kugane) will just be the equivalent of Ishgard, but I think it'll be the new hangout for RP/ERP in certain servers so it wont be as empty as Ishgard.

Lay Low (Trait): Enmity generated during Laylines is reduced by 20%. Successfully refreshing Enochian during Laylines will increase casting speed for a few seconds.

And before you say it, I think the effect of Enochian allowing IV to be cast will be permanent, but I think it will still have a small buff that gets maintained by using Blizzard IV.

It's a far more polished and overall more appealing game then wow in terms of basically everything. The visuals, audio, gameplay, and story are basically the best they can be for a game of this style (i.e. wow clone) and wow's glory days have long since gone. When an mmo hits the decade+ time span, it's time to let go.

And even though this point is now dated, it has one of the best recoveries ever made in a game going from 1.0 to 2.0. It's a miraculous feat that they deserve to be compensated for.

>>376089357
Because Ilberd wanted an even meaner dragon than Bahamut to recreate the Calamity. Before the Garleans called down Dalamud, he'd actually started a new life and had a job and family in Ul'dah. Bahamut stole it from him, so he became obsessed with revenge to cope. He wasn't concerned with summoning Rhalgr, just throwing back another Calamity in the Garleans' faces.

Papalymo cast a different spell than Louisoix. It just looked the same because he was either intentionally or subconsciously mimicking what he saw Louisoix shape his spell into.

Balmung for ERP,

>>376089732
Louisoix was beginning a primal summoning of the Twelve so he could take advantage of the gathering aether to shape whatever he needed more easily. So when Bahamut showed up, he shaped it into a new Dalamud. It wasn't inherently fatal, but Louisoix was planning to commit suicide so the primals wouldn't manifest.

Papalymo was casting some kind of ancient sealing spell that tied the seal to his own aether, burning him out completely to maintain it for however long his body could manage.

Well the primal always takes the form that the summoners worship. Garuda was a worshiped by the Ixal, Shiva and Thordan were historical figures of the Ishgardians etc. It seems odd that a dude fighting to liberate Ala Mhigo and a bunch of Ala Mhigan refugees would summon not the destruction god Rhalgr (who we see a monument to in Ala Mhigo) but some Doman death serpent

>>376089513
The eyes were used as a source of Aether, much like the crystals used to summon other primals. If dragon eyes will always summon dragon primals, why aren't Ifrit, Garuda, Titan, Leviathan etc giant crystals? Also, Thordan was summoned using the the exact same eyes.

>It seems odd that a dude fighting to liberate Ala Mhigo and a bunch of Ala Mhigan refugees would summon not the destruction god Rhalgr (who we see a monument to in Ala Mhigo) but some Doman death serpent
Because Ilberd was the primary summoner, and his will and emotions were strong enough to overpower the other refugees. He never wanted Rhalgr, so essentially all those other people were just living sacrifices to add grief and aether to his own personal primal.

>>
>>376090134
Okay. Maybe it didn't have to be Rhalgr. But I'm still confused as to why it was Shinryuu. If Ilberd really just wanted another Calamity, it could have been another Bahamut, or some formless energy being like Ozma in ffix. I know the real answer is "Because Omega fights Shinryuu, and we gotta make another reference". I guess we'll find out in a month.
>>
>>376090419
The gameplay doesn't change much throughout the game. You just kinda get more skills for each class. DPS is following your 123456 combo right. Healing is dpsing and occasionally doing a heal. Tanking is dps except sometimes you have to lower your damage to eat a tank buster.
>>
>>376090395
Nidhogg's will was only in the eyes until we kicked the shit out of Estinienhogg and sent him to dragon heaven. We saw his aether disperse.

>>376090423
>But I'm still confused as to why it was Shinryuu. If Ilberd really just wanted another Calamity, it could have been another Bahamut
Well all Ilberd knew is he wanted some big, mean, black dragon to destroy shit. He didn't give it a name or anything. It just turned out in that shape for reasons. Maybe the Ascians fed him some info or something (they do hang out in the Interdimensional Rift). The name Shinryu only came from the Domans thinking it resembled one of the creatures from their myths.
>>
>>376090423
>"Because Omega fights Shinryuu, and we gotta make another reference"
This is THE reason. Even the guy who predicted this right at 3.5 part 1 ending cited the exact same reason. Anyone who think otherwise are just delusional.

dude, llberd wanted antoher "bahamut" like calamity so his primal took the form of a twisted dragon-like creature, a creature with no name, some domans that saw the fight were reminded of the legend of "shinryu", thts why they called that dragon creature shinryu, simple as that

Balmung is where 95% of /xivg/ play and 5% are on Gilgamesh. Pretty much nobody of relevance except maybe 2-3 people from here play on Ultros maybe but they'll try to recruit you really hard into a mistake. Sadly, Gilgamesh is full 95% of the time and Balmung is full 100% so you'll have to pay to transfer into the latter if you want into the promised land or have any interest in RP, ERP, big population, or playing with /v/.

You see him for like...five seconds, and the only thing he does is put his scepter down with two Ascians behind him. There was no foreshadowing at all. These fucking hack writers focus way too fucking much on primals that they can use it as a cop-out for any strong story boss. Watch, Stormblood will release and Zenos will use all powerful voodoo magic and become a Primal, because that's all they know how to do.

Speculation. All Lahabrea did with Thancred was give Ultima to the Empire.

Nabriales said he would use it to nuke another area like he did with that one island.

Giving the Empire an Anti-Primal weapon would be a direct hindrance to their Primal schemes.

>>376092654
Actually he was with the empire for the end game of using ultima to create a calamity.

Primals are just the easiest way to create a calamity otherwise. And that's all they really care about doing.

I'm not sure they KNOW what they're doing though, as the only dimension they were "successful" in ended up negatively affecting their goal.

It felt like all their budget went into that battle scene between Omega and Shinryu, and even that wasn't that good.

Doesn't help when the playerbase bitched, and still continue to occasionally bitch, that Chrysalis and Steps of Faith are 'too hard'.

Early on, yes. End game no. Usually the first to die when the tank dies, being next on the aggro list.
>>

no there's not

In 8-man content, not for long unless it's unsynced. In dungeons, yes if the healer is competent.
>>
>>376095476
>looking up boss mechanics so your not a complete deadweight makes you an autistic speed runner
If you need a guide to tell you how to handle the babby-tier mechanics in dungeons, you will always be a deadweight no matter what.
>>
>>376095476
The problem is the sort of people who need a guide for anything under new Savage/Extreme content are also the sort of people who would immediately forget everything in said guide as soon as they got into a fight. And then die anyway.
>>
>>376095407
Absolutely not. Gladiator and marauder are your tanks, they evolve into paladin and warrior. You can unlock dark knight, the other tank, after finishing level 50 story.

Just hit level 54 War, so I'm also fairly new.

My rule is use overpower/flash for as many mobs as you're pulling. So overpower 2/3 times if you're pulling 3 mobs. If you're pulling more than 4 mobs, overpower once to grab them all, then pop Maim, and any cool downs you might need to survive, and then just spam overpower. It's the most efficient damage/tp. Stop using overpower once you hit around 200 tp and just cycle through enemies using your normal skull sunder combo on any enemies that you're about to lose aggro to.

And definitely get flash from paladin, as well as provoke.

People in this game have the situational awareness of a chicken nugget.
You can look at guides, you can read mechanical descriptions, but it doesn't matter for shit if you're just generally retarded. And with XIV's focus on instant-wipe mechanics, where having a single moron smacking about can totally undermine your chance at success; gambling the next 8-13 minutes of your life (plus however long you queued) on the 0.78125% probability that you have a fully-competent party is the fast-path to losing your faith in humanity.

no you're missing my point.
an argument was made much earlier in this thread saying that if you knew the mechanics of a dungeon before you did it for the first time, you were a speedrunning scrub.
Emphasis on the aspect of "its because you didnt go in blind your first time"
You can't go in blind if you have someone tell you what the mechanics are. Therein lies my question of what the difference is between getting your info from a guide and getting it from a person.
In the end you still know the material before it happens which is what a previous anon thought was a problem.

Desynthing's not that bad now, especially if you're a GSM. Currently 230 in it and been leveling it off of A1S drops. Good money too! Also good money to desynth the allagan replica heads for healers/mages as it gives Demi 3, HQ plat ingots, and some other junk here and there. It's a good business.

They were only giving .1s and .2s when I hit like 155 or something, so I can't imagine they'll be any good now.

HELP

I reached lv45 on my first job, figured I would take a break from it and continue with pugilist so I can unlock monk. I am level 20 and the problem is that I've done all the quests on my other class, so I don't know how to level. I barely have any leve "allowance" so can't do that

This. Healer needs to be watching the party menu and playing wack-a-mole, not looking at the enemy menu. If the healer is too busy looking at enemy HP to notice that the tank isn't as safe as he was five seconds ago, it's going to be a lot worse than just not dealing a few points of damage.

The game is balanced around the healers healing, tanks tanking, and DPS handling DPS, anyways. Getting upset that the healer is just doing their job is ridiculous.

>Heals group excellently
Healing/protecting the tank so you have plenty of time free to DPS is 'healing excellently'. Constantly healing the tank when they lose 5% HP is not.

If you're doing your fucking job correctly, you shouldn't even need to heal that much.

If you don't like people bitching about healers not DPSing, then go back to ignoring everything but Netflix, like you do in dungeons.

That very, very rarely happens and healer DPS is an important contribution. Moreso in dungeons where a healer's strongest point in terms of damage output, AoE, is most applicable. When properly done a pull can end with every player (assuming it's a WAR/DRK and not a PLD) within ~20% of each other in terms of DPS.
>>
>>376099695
I consistently let tanks get that low and use lustrate, tetra, or dignity for these moments for even more dps. As long as the tank never actually dies it doesn't matter how low he gets. Tank damage and raidwide damage in XIV is extremely predictable.

This.
Also, if you give the tank a stoneskin + adloquiem/Nocturnal Benefic (swap back to Diurnal before you engage any enemies obviously) then load him up with every regen you have at your disposal you can spend the next 15-30 seconds non-stop DPSing. Shadowflare is even a stronger form of mitigation than Sacred Soil on big-pulls due to the cumulative effect of the added Slow.

It's a bit harder as WHM, but they at least get the benefit of having Holy also stun enemies.

Man, I miss the good ol' days. Get that 50 cap with conjurer. Farming tomes in WP. Got nice and geared up, fellow DPS FC brothers wanted a healer for quicker queues. Just summon the fairy, put the tank on follow and read a book. Glance up now and then to see if we've zoned. Can't do that shit these days. Shit sucks.

I swear I read half of Clan of the Cave Bear doing that. Good book.
>>
>>376100395
Holy's stun is really good for mitigation in dungeon pulls but it's unfortunately a potential DPS loss in a group with a DRK because of Blood Price's existence.
>>
>>376100506
The DRK could always pop it after Holy is unable to stun. Also the DRK should at least have their Sole Survivor up and ready when ever the first add is almost dead.
>>
>>376100565
Yeah, as long as the DRK is aware and waits until stun DR to pop it, it works out better. You also have to be careful of an AST using their AOE stun too.
>>
>>376100623
>>376100565
>>376100506
You could also tell the DRK to hold off from popping blood price instantly, hopefully they understand, it's better than the waiting game in my experience, since I wait like 6 seconds for them to start holy spamming, then they pick up the cue too late and I popped blood price and their casting their first holy.

I feel like I just enabled their laziness, but at least everyone could see them lying there dead, contributing nothing. When they're alive, I feel like I'm the only one who sees.

I used to joke with my friend that I healed shit because if I left it to other people we wouldn't succeed. Well, now that's finally become a reality. I'm really not looking forward to the shitfest that will be Stormblood.

This.
As much as healers should be DPSing during downtime (with the healer metagame consisting of "creating" more of that downtime through timing and the skillful use of cooldowns) I hate when people cite the conjurer's questline as proof that SE vindicates healers DPSing because A. you're misrepresenting the story; that simply isn't what the whole thing was about, and B. they'd never staunchly advocate skillful play when they let retards run rampant at endgame and haven't yet committed to simple fixes like making SSS mandatory to queue for raids.

She was way more interesting than Diabolos; her design juxtaposed with the previous Void Ark villainesses and contrasts nicely with her presentation as this apocalyptic Voidsent Queen, but SE had Diabolos pull that offscreen power-play and she got anticlimactically Ganondorfed. Dun Scaithe was all around kind of a shitshow, the only boss with unique music being Doomgaze, and then there's the Proto-ultima backpedal.

I hope they bring her back in some fashion (preferably as a SCH fairy, or if nothing else her gear).

That title is there to tell the consumer that it's a complete re-haul of the original FFXIV that nobody liked, not because the world was destroyed and reborn.

Such a simple concept of players want to look awesome cause gear mismatch is derp. But no, let's make you store all pieces instead of just flipping a switch saying you acquired it at one point.

City of heroes did it long before transmog or glamor existed. Half it's damn rewards were unlocking parts in the costume database. Why so fucking hard to do it for anything else as a base feature blows my mind.

Idk man, I was hyped for that story. Ending like that was disappointing.

Hyped for what, exactly? Evil Shadow Queen appearing then getting 1 shot as the final boss instead of penultimate boss?
>>
>>376102397
I mean ok you can be disappointed. I'm just not understanding how you didn't see the trope coming since the end of Void ark where diablos takes the coffin off for his nefarious schemes.

You honestly thought he wasn't going to "just as keikaiku" when it was setup like that from the start?

"Buy more retainers" is why.
They nickel and dime players for fucking everything, and all the profit gets shunted off into garbage like Final Boondoggle 15, KH3 and FFVII:Remake. Can't even hire Akihiko Yoshida to do armor designs because he's Freelance now and thus expensive, and having the armor not look like complete garbage is clearly not a priority.

Honestly, I play XIV because it's the best FF game since IX (ie. in nearly 20 years, XII being a weird edge-case of quality story with mediocre gameplay that could have been amazing if corporate quit meddling didn't pull the rug out from under the dev team at the last minue), and it galls me that we're not getting proper support for XIV or other nice things like Nier Automata DLC (the best title SE has produced in ages) because "not profitable". Because 10 years in FFXV dev hell was clearly fucking printing money for the company right? Mob of cunts.

Would you have preferred if they made her boring, masculine, or a vaguely feminine monster instead? Nobody would have remembered her in those cases.

Being raised in a feminist environment (AKA anywhere in the west) has put you in a rough spot, anon. The feminine is seen as shameful, and for men's part, they're supposed to see feminine as childish and prefer women to be masculine. Not that anyone actually prefers masculine women, including men, which is just one strike in a damn near endless list of things contributing to the destruction of gender relations, the family, and society's mental health overall.

When doing anything with women in fiction, it's best to write them as women. Even when writing a female villain, it's best to give them that touch of feminine grace and warmth. If you go back to 40s film (because it doesn't seem like you want to learn it from anime), before feminism made everyone forget what a woman's natural character looks like, you'll get a good idea for why that works.

For some reason I keep thinking that SAM will not be a popular class. Sure most people will roll one, but I genuinely expect it to go the route of Heavensward.

Common, then evens out.

Make a weekly dungeon with 10 bosses instead of a daily dungeon with 3. Also have it save your progress for the week.
