800 potency once every 120s isn't really all that incredible

Even Dragoon beats that in AoE oGCDs if you just combine the 300 from Dragonfire Dive with the 3x Geirskoguls you get over that time interval

>>378098953
That's very clearly closer to 6 dollars.

Let's settle this, what's better for leveling
PotD or Dungeons?

>>378098852
My biggest pet peeve was every job in HW having DoTs as their highest damage/execution time. Nice to see they finally have fucking jobs without any.

>>378099219
They also have 720 potency attack available every other 8 GCDs (16-18 seconds)

>>378099239
Until 50 it's unquestioningly PotD
After that it's dungeons unless your queues routinely exceed 15 minutes and your runs exceed 30 minutes.

You guys need to stop posting so many threads. Don't turn this into /ffxivg/ please.

>>378099239
Roulettes first, followed by PoTD.

>>378099147

>>378099239
Tank and Healer = Dungeons
DPS = PoTD

Generally PoTD should just be for alt jobs imo.

>>378099239
I preferred PotD most of the time because I could converse and not feel so alone while leveling.

>>378098953
BDO has no endgame pve. Or rather, it has no endgame, it's just grinding and grinding.

>>378099303
Every job that isn't built around dots (BRD, SMN) lost them (exceptions being stuff like Chaos Thrust and only because it's not a standalone skill you have to monitor).
Healers have DoTs because easiest way for healers to DPS is to cast in dots and then go back to healing but even then their number has been reduced (Aero 1 rolled into Aero 2, Bio 2 into Bio, Combust 2 into Combust, SCH and AST can't take Aero any longer)

It could have been worse I suppose.

>>378099303
it made sense but yeah it made sks a lot worse than what it should be, since even if you could somehow get enough sks to do cool shit, you would either clip your dots or have to drop them, both of which are shitty

also now that i think about it nin gets its meter from autos, which aren't affected by sks, which makes it REALLY bad on a class where it was already bad due to clipping. nin really did get put in the cuckshed this expansion

>>378099561
Demolish is still there; Touch of Death appears to not be.

They haven't removed DoTs, full stop, but they seem to have removed most of those "standalone" DoT skills that aren't part of your combos - Mutilate, Fracture, Phlebotomize, Touch of Death, etc.

Interestingly, One Ilm Punch and Arm of the Destroyer are still there. No idea if their effects have changed, though.

What is your favorite mount and why is it the ADS?

>>378100165
Since NIN's Shadownfang now becomes third part of combo and applies both DoT and slash debuff I am expecting the same for One Ilm Punch.

pls post more cute birbs

>>378102256
sps isn't about lowering cast times(although that's a nice side effect on blm), but casting more spells total due to a lower recast time.
since their melee combo thing is apparently their highest damaging move, and it's tied directly to the meter you gain from casting, the more spells you cast the more big damage combos you can put out

Oh so I'm retarded because I simply supposed there must be more to mmos because it's impossible that people are so fucking stupid as to pay money for grindfest bullshit? If I'm retarded for presuming that, then you're beyond retarded because you're paying money for that. Luckily, I only spent 3 months on ff14 and didn't waste a lot of money. There is no fucking way I will pay for lore and light grinds and raiding with autists every time a new raid comes out.

Which are the best quests.

If you end up not liking it, you can change your character around for 10 bux. Hair and non permanent features can be changed ingame for 2000 gil though.

>>378105297
Nah the HW ones were complete garbage and you can tell they were an afterthought

>>378105262
That spin looks like it has a lot of weight to it. It reminds me of Steel Cyclone and how satisfying it feels to use. Glad I'm a DRK main.

>>378105262
Literally DRK's decimate.

It even use 50 blood juice like WAR's version.

>>378105297
I kind of hope they do something different.

>>378105297
HW Hild was shit and forced compared to ARR only because autists like you want more of le dumb funny faces man.

>>378105256

think the race differences are being eliminated in 4.0, at least in regards to mana pool

but in general, the higher level gear you get, the less and less your base stats even matter, it's like less than 0.1% of your total stats at max level

>>378105256
At level 60 you have around 1600 in your main stat before buffs. Losing 3-5 points doesn't make much of a difference and the numbers will only be larger in a month.

>>378105379
You got two years before 5.0. You'll get to them all.

I wouldn't be surprised if DRK just gets a Fell Cleave/Decimate equivalent, but leaked skills + the trailer showing them being buffed by Dark Arts seems to imply there's much more going on than we know.

Good. The existence of Dark Arts and the fact that it changes the behaviour of skills in some way means that there's potentially a decent level of depth to DRK that can be explored as the game progresses. I'm eager.

Well, Dark Arts will probably buff the damage like it already does.

Also if cost remains the same then WAR can technically get 2 Decimate out in a row, or 4 (or 6 with Infuriate Jesus Christ) with that skill that reduce the rage cost of their skills.

Beta testers report that DRK has the hardest rotation by far, all the tanks are reportingly looking extremely strong.

We can't really speculate even about even the shown off WAR or BLM due to not knowing all of their 62 -70skills + all of the reworked 1-60 skills + all the crossrole skills, I really hope we're heading in a good direction.

Funny enough, based on rudimentary rotation theorycrafting, WAR *seems* to be completely unable to use FC outside of Berserk, just 10 FCs and 3 Upheavals(triple punch skill) every 2min, which implies we're missing HUGE pieces of the picture.

>>378105723
Dark Arts actually have some misc effects than not, Blind + extra damage on Dark Passenger, lifesteal on Abyssal Drain, extra mitigation on Dark Mind, dodge on Dark Dance, and while they are pretty questionable now, they might take a very interesting direction, especially with the implications that DRK will be juggling MP, Blood Gauge, and other effects all at the same time.

That's literally DRK's version of Fell cleave.
With a stronger potency.

>>378106264
Probably juggling MP and Blackblood so that you can always have MP and blood to use on a Dark Arts + Blackblood skill. Combining that with saving MP for Passenger, DA -> Carve and Spit/Souleater already makes DRK sound a bit more difficult than what we know about WAR/PLD so far. We also don't know if they're changing any older skills.

>>378107335
What is shilling to you? People discussing game? I literally have never seen an non-ironic "DUDE GO BUY STORMBLOOD NOW LMAO". And almost every "should I buy the game?" questions were answered with "go try the fucking free trial".

Or maybe with Stormblood around the corner people are excited to talk about it.

Balancing MP, Blood, and "Blood Weapon effects" all at the same time within the same rotation, apparently

Balancing MP was only a little more complex than the other classes, but with the Blood gauge and other abilities affecting how you gain/spend MP/Blood together/separately, it might be a bit nuts

>>378107438
That makes me sad I really liked the Sacred Soil effect.

Wat.
Outside of Raw intuition/Vengeance/Berserk WAR needs 8 GCD to get enough stacks to use 1 Fell cleave in HW (HS > Maim > SE > HS > SS > BB > HS > Maim)
Now with the new Storm's path they only need 6 in SB (HS > Maim (10) > SE (10) > HS > Maim (10) > SP (20))

>>378107775
Meaning skilled DRKs will probably find their enjoyment of DRK multiplying, while FoTM shitters will drop the job like a bad habit.

>>378108023
Just click it when you're taking a lot of hits in short period of time.
Like Tyrfing on Zurvan, but stronger hitting obviously.

>>378108023

passage of arms also increases the paladin's block chance by 100% so it can be used just for personal defense

Not to mention some current one will be switching to samurai because muh 2 sword dps job too.

People keep forgetting the fact that Passage of Arms also grants a 100% block rate while it's active. This means that PLD will get even BETTER at handling bursts of physical attacks.

>>378108023
They'll probably make some new mechanics for it.

>>378107848
The problem is that it takes WAR 4 combos(12 GCDs) to build 100 meter for a full Berserk window. 4 FCs without Release, 6 FCs + 1 Upheaval with. Any less means you miss a Berserk FC, and the potency math makes that unrecoverable outside of Berserk.

Berserk has been dropped to a 60s CD, which means every 60s(at a very fast 2.4s GCD), you have 25 GCDs. 9 of these are in Berserk(clean 100-0 meter burns + 1 path combo), and 12 of these are just spent building meter for the next Berserk.

This leaves you with 3-4 GCDs spare, which means you'll get to use 1 Upheaval in between each Berserk, and that's it. Literally nothing else. This means we're missing LARGE pieces of the puzzle considering footage has been leaked of 7+ Fell Cleaves inside Berserk

If you dont want to raid it doesnt matter, if you do then abandon it now they have said two things that utterly damn it.
"we want white mage to remain a pure healer"
and
"the difficulty of Creator was about right and we shoot to maintain that in future raids"

Since healing has a ceiling of usefulness that passing gives no return and whitemage brings only healing its not good compared to a healer with any utility/damage. The fact that beta testers have apparently said it still struggles with MP issues means it won't have any sustained DPS of its own either. Barring AST gettin nerf'd all the way into the ground (which we have no reason to believe at current) WHM is not going to be picked up by any raid groups since the whole community is a buncha tryhards that are super hardcore serious about the meta.

I like the self heal and since WAR lost Bloodbath for reasons I don't understand, what the fuck do have to heal ourselves?

He was in Deviance for a long time during the liveletter and never used upheavel outside of it.

Equilibrium.

>>378108910
Equilibrium? Once every minute? 1200 potency, free heal that could already heal you for a shitload as far back as Midas?

>>378108910
>what the fuck do have to heal ourselves?
Equilibrium is still a thing nerd.

It's implied that songs now play a part in their skill rotation. Mage's Ballad has Foe's built in, Army's Paeon has some kind of damage buff, and Wanderer's Minuet is your burst, with each of them charging separate gauges

>>378108910
It's not clear, but we don't know all the tank crossroles yet either, I'm sure they wouldn't just remove WAR's AoE selfhealing like that, unless they want DRK to be the only good dungeon tank.

That's what I mean, he was in Defiance for a short time, used no abilities, then swapped to Deliverance asap
