WHM is an excellent healer for those who enjoy playing classic, iconic FF jobs. This is something most niggers do not do because they come from inferior MMORPG's like World of War Creations

In Final Fantasy XIV you can play whatever the fuck you want and be useful as long as you know how to play your job, "META" shit is viable only for "First" clears worldwide and server wide.

What?

Fractal was 2-pulls>boss>2-pulls>boss>3-pulls>boss
Neverreap was 2-pulls>boss>2-pulls>boss>2-pulls>boss

I don't think Pharos and St. Mocianne's were any worse.

HW dungeons really didn't have obnoxious gating until you got to Antitower/Amdapor in like 3.2, and that was the least of the problems with that shitty roulette tier.

It's already a slight DPS gain to use PB to tornado kick you stupid nigger, people just don't do it because it's a net DPS loss if there's any phase shifts after that. Riddle of Earth renders that moot.

Meme kick doesn't hit hard enough for you to want to give up 30% more damage for however long it takes you to get back up the 3 stacks. Riddle of fire will be used when you're in spam forbidden chakra mode and that's it.

I support huge DPS penalties on death. The rez system in FFXIV is already so generous (Theres no upper limit on the amount of people you can rez provided you have mana, 1/3 of the classes have access to a rez)

Keep on going. Once you hit 50 check out the Hildibrand sidequests.
>>
>>379986608
Tornado Kick used to be 500 potency, but it was nerfed because Yoshi was too retarded to just put it on the GCD.
>>
>>379986605
The problem is that it's inconsistent. Some classes get totally thrown into the ground while others just basically take the weakness and go about their business.

Maybe meme bars wasn't such a good idea.
>>
>>379986052
Tornado kick was a very marginal dps gain if it critted at the end of blood for blood right before snap punch. And that was with just the shitty blood for blood. Its probably going to pan out way better than everyone thought it was going to be.

I'm in the exact same boat as you right now actually, except I have different classes at max. Apparently the best way is doing Leveling roulette, HW Beast tribe daillies and spamming the highest level dungeon you have. You can probably max in a day or two if you're dedicated.
>>
>>379985692
>>379986126
The only thing particularly shitty about it is targeting. I don't know how the fuck people heal on controller but then I don't know how people heal at all really.

But if there's a pile of enemies and you need to target something specific really fast bad times tend to be had.

>>379986578
Just run Palace of the Dead until your eyes bleed. You should be able to hit 60 in about day.

Yeah the targeting system in this game is balls.

I heal on PC by clicking nameplates from the party list. Not sure how people on controllers do it, but if it's the same tab-cycle system that's used for enemies, it'd explain some things.

That's probably the most noticeable thing if you come from WoW. The tab targetting is bonkers. Even if you think you're staring directly at the mob with your camera it can still target something else.

I personally burn out on dungeons way faster than on PoTD when it comes to leveling tanks. Maybe its because I've leveled 4 tanks to 60 across two accounts, but holy fuck am I sick of those 50-60 leveling dungeons. At least with POTD no one even expects you to hold aggro on anything, you can just sprint through the level picking up a bunch of mobs till you find the exit portal, then everyone aoes them down.

I think theres a specific keybind for "target nearest enemy" as well as "target furthest enemy". Probably pretty important to bind them to something since the basic tab targeting is inconsistent as fuck

Elezen is the only answer for PLD. I'd say Roes pull off the tank look better than Fem Au Ras, though, if you're dead set on those two. Femras are a bit too short to be intimidating, and the huge armor contrasted with their small frame and girly posture looks weird.

Not sure how I'll feel in five days when SB launches, but for now it's my go-to healer when I want to run low-level roulettes. Just sit in Cleric Stance all day and DPS while the fairy does the boring work.

It's more proactive than WHM since shields are better used to mitigate than attempt to recover HP, but HW added so many tools to make up for it's shortcomings that it doesn't much matter any more.

Getting a successful crit Adlo Deployed and watching the team eat a buster with 0 DMG everywhere is a hell of a feeling.

Here's overall what was nerfed for SCH in terms of deeps

>Cleric's stance (overall for healers) meaning very likely less DPS while cleric's stance itself is useless (5% damage boost WOW)
>Triple dot reduced to two (Bio II and Miasma III). SCH doesn't get Bio III but SMN does
>Bane nerfed in damage only doing 20% damage to big groups

from what I can understand, you do a lot of magic casting following a priority system, and, once you reach critical mass, go in for the melee combos and bigger damage.

quick rundown: cast a balance of black and white spells to fill up both sides of the gauge, then move in for a melee combo
BLM is really not similar
>>
>>379983068

>>
>>379992784
It doesn't share BLM's signature "stationary nuke" characteristic.
>>
>>379992784

Completely different resource build and management, playing with procs and shit, and yes you do go in melee, which BLM never does Blizzard II is bad and you should stop using it past level 30. BLM has a rotation with procs you can use, whereas RDM seems to be priority-based (closer to how NIN plays), and you intentionally trigger procs.

They also have a raise, which BLM doesn't. So there's that.

I just really don't understand what happened there. If it's going to be a generic damage cooldown instead of a stance then okay, fine, but at least make it more than a 5% boost if its uptime is going to be that shitty. If it were +20% damage for 15s on a 90s cooldown that's still a big DPS nerf to healers in general.

You'll always want a healer with protect (meaning with DF you'll be taking it) and to have Esuna as a just-in-case

You can send it in I think, but if you ask a question that has anything to do with game mechanics and dev decisions, you may as well not waste your time. If it would be useful for players to know about, they won't spend time answering it.

Plus they changed it so that its damage only drops off to 70% after the third enemy getting way more total damage on big groups.

What if the meta is either Scholar + Astrologian, or White Mage alone. If White Mage was actually forced to heal 100% of the time, Lilies and Confessions would actually come into play and provide use - it's the current nature of content that the White Mage doesn't actually have to use Cure 1 and 2 that much that makes these mechanics seem useless.

But if you had a Paladin OT constantly dampening damage and providing a group shield through Divine Veil or a strong single target heal when needed, an 8 man group may be able to get by with only a White Mage for a real healer and run a 2-1-5 composition.

Sure I can do content, but other than MCH I think WHM got shafted the hardest with their new gauge and resource management. The lilies encourage sub-optimal play and punish you for using skills in situations where you'd normally want to use them. It stings all the more knowing that SB was supposed to be the big rebalance for the healers and the devs basically said "yeah, fuck WHM, let's make AST even more awesome. Oh right I guess we can give SCH something too so we don't have double AST in every 8-man group.
But make sure they're not compensated for the ACN dot nerfs otherwise."

I'll still play WHM, but I don't think I'll enjoy it as much. I guess I can feel good about bick dick DPS in dungeons?

It's just not as interesting as other changes and honestly, if MCH doesn't have utility, they won't be wanted in raids. Doesn't matter if only the top 3% of players will notice or be able to play around it, The Meta is a gold standard to which every try-hard shitter abides by.

Which happens once, on your first attempt, which you heal through, and then take Esuna for that specific fight in the future.

Look it's dumb as fuck that they make you waste a cross-class skill on it and healers SHOULD always have access to a cleanse, nobody is going to fight you on that. But the vast, vast, VAST majority of fights in the game offer no tangible benefit to you bringing along Esuna, and you should absolutely be defaulting to using Cleric Stance until you find out that Esuna would help you.

There's a better case to be made for dropping Lucid Dreaming as a just-in-case skill than there is for dropping Cleric Stance, if you REALLY feel like you can't live with having access to a safety blanket that isn't going to do anything for you most of the time.

It's being casualized. Some people will defend it because they don't want to face it and want to justify their preordering of the expansion.

You're literally going to be doing nothing but spaming souleater and meme spins on DRK. You even lost half your oGCDs. The only positive change is Darkest Night.

I don't think he does, not personally at least. But the dev team certainly has a hateboner for WHM.

The biggest problem is there's a schism between what players and devs want WHM to be. The players want WHM to have raid-worthy utility abilities, even if it means sacrificing some healing moves to get them. Devs want WHM to be the pure healer class, the quintessential "make bars go up" job. They left the raid utility to AST and SCH so WHM could have heals for days and big dick DPS in dungeons as a way to make them attractive. Unfortunately, the game is not all dungeons once you hit end-game. The serious players raid and raids require utility. Only fresh prog groups require the raw healing abilities of WHM- once people figure shit out, it's a DPS race to the bottom. If XIV had enough damage coming out in fights that bringing a WHM was an attractive pick, that'd be one thing. But the game's content is designed to be beatable with any combinations of jobs within roles so that will never happen and WHM will sit on the sidelines once content is on farm.

WHM is not useless, and YoshiP doesn't hate the job. The devs just have different desires from the players and the dev's vision doesn't jive with how players do end-game content. This could change with SB but so far there's no indication than it will.
>>
>>379997834
So, adjusting for Diurnal giving 10% bonus healing, ASTs are not better at healing either single or aoe compared to White Mage. This is purely MAX throughput though - Cure 2/Benefic 2 every GCD, all oGCDs used purely for healing, procs going the way you want, etc etc.

If you assume the White Mage never gets any Confession stacks to use, they're worse. Likewise if the AST isn't actively burning every card they get to throw Ladies, they're a good deal worse.

GCD moves and even one to one comparison oGCD moves, AST comes out ahead, but the White Mage just has more oGCDs to throw more often, and that's not counting Divine Benis or Benediction.

However, the comparison falls apart when you head over to Nocturnal, because Nocturnal Aspected Benefic, if you assumed that shield was eaten every GCD, becomes a fairly higher throughput GCD than Benefic 2 - though even with this if you assume they're not burning cards for Ladies or that White Mage gets good luck with Confessions (3 stacks every 15 seconds), then White Mage still comes out ahead in pure output.

However, having written all that, the difference is not that great. Even assuming no Ladies and perfect Confessions luck, White Mage still only outperforms in a healing sense by 20%, while that whole time the AST was free to contribute cards oGCD to the team.

You know the point I'm trying to make stop replying in an effort to make yourselves look cool. This game and any other MMO can be profitable while ensuring their players aren't garbage. Whether it be through a handful of complex tutorials or an in game parser. WoW is a prime example and even the closest game to FFXIV.The Novice Hall is garbage and optional and there is no parser. 3% of this games playerbase actually knows what they're doing and it's ruining the game. If you're too much of a bitch to take some harsh words from some dude online because your numbers are visibly shit and if you're too retarded to take 5 minutes to learn how to dps and heal/learn your rotation/stance dance on tanks then you're a special kind of retarded and should consider playing a game more suited for retards like BDO or ESO. Go back to subreddit, the FFXIV subreddit is perfect for the snowflake players.

Listen up you fucking retard, the only way to ensure players learn their job is to lock their progress behind skillchecks.

>I'm orange percentile raider on DRK
Yeah hey, me too. (Not sarcastic)

You do literally nothing but spam your Syphon Strike combo on DRK now, which either ends in Souleater if you're using DA, or Delirium if you aren't. This is a markedly lower amount of complexity than doing the same combo, but having the choice between not using DA, using DA on Syphon Strike, using DA on Souleater, or using DA on both.

You currently hit Scourge once every four combos, like clockwork. This is markedly less complex than using Bloodspiller, which can be held off for upward of five combos, or used multiple times consecutively, and can be used in between any two combo GCDs, rather than simply between combos.

The reduced number of distinct oGCD attacks is counterbalanced by a greater number of oGCD Dark Arts uses, and a great number of GCDs they can be applied on.

The way that MP is channeled into damage, either through Dark Arts, through Dark Passenger, or stored-and-released via Blackest Night -> Bloodspiller, is extremely conducive toward playing off your other party members, and to a pretty big degree you're free to move that damage around so that it synchronizes with Trick Attack, Battle Litany, and the many other new party buffs being introduced. There's a lot more depth to that than simply having a couple more oGCD attacks that you try to hit as soon as they come off cooldown. It's probably the first class FFXIV has ever had (since 2.0, anyway) that is almost fully resource-based, and not built around managing the timings on specific cooldowns. That's exciting, and a lot more interesting than the current DRK.

The only real shit sandwich DRK has to eat for Stormblood is an aesthetic one, because Scourge and Delirium both looked really good.

The best way for people to learn their job is to fucking take 5 minutes out of their time to read a couple paragraphs and study a picture.

All of this games content outside of the raids are too casual and fucking braindead easy. The gap between the floor and the cieling is too fucking much and you're a fucking autistic piece of shit if you aren't capable of seeing that. When theres a gap this large there will always be that large discrepency between people who are making an effort and those that are holding them back. The game isn't difficult at all. Like, AT ALL. Literally no one will be scared of this game from being too difficult if they knew what a fucking rotation was because even a good parse during a fight can make it 100% easier whether it be through pushing phases or quickly destroying adds to make healers and tanks lives easier.

Literally fucking kill yourself.

There's no aggro multipliers on DPS attacks, DPS aggro order is 100% damage done to target indicator unless they're using healing abilities. (which short of a SMN healing the party contribute fuck all anyways)

You're completely missing the point, these people aren't going to take the 5 minutes because they don't care.
They're progressing through the game without much care or thought, and until the game tells them to stop and learn their class, they aren't going to do it.
The game defines the rules, rewards, and punishments. Until you properly incentivize people to perform, they aren't going to do it.

I don't think they did that, but they did reduce the cooldown on Dark Arts from 3s to 2s (ie: you can use it every GCD), so that's definitely what they're going for.

>>380006523
Honestly, I think WAR kind of got the short end of the stick. They lost a lot of stuff that they needed to lose for the sake of balance (the Path debuff, being the only efficient provider of the Slashing debuff), but the buffs to their DPS were very slight - they're going to come in under DRK going by the event tooltips, which might change a lot - and their rotation is a lot more tight and exacting, they basically lost Unchained, they get overly penalized for stance swapping, Defiance is still basically just as bad a stance as ever (got buffed slightly from a 25% damage penalty to 20%, Inner Beast buffed from 300 to 350 potency), and they have no way to help other party members with mitigation, the way PLD can with Intervention and DRK can with Blackest Night, and obviously can't use IB in Deliverance, even though DRK and PLD can use Sheltron/BN in their tank stances.

Unless fights are really heavy on AoE spike damage and WAR can do a 6x Decimate, or the status removal/immunity on Inner Release and Shake it Off, I don't know if they really have much of a place.

You can play casually and not be shit. You will do nothing to harm the playerbase by taking 1 fucking day tops to learn your class.

It's this way with all things. In Halo's old ranking system the bottom 10 levels out of 50 represented like 50% of the player base and those people were about as threatening as the lowest tier of AI enemies.

You're completely correct.
But again you are missing the point.
If you want players to perform correctly, the game needs to do more to encourage this behavior and discourage the opposite behavior.
It's as simple as that.
If you let players get the content they want with no effort, they are simply not going to expend the effort.

>You're fucking retarded. Look at the potencies.
Dark Arts adds 140 potency, regardless of whether it's used on Syphon Strike, Souleater, or Bloodspiller. What potencies am I looking at, exactly?
>Because Scourge is higher potency than any other move. When you have a higher-potency move then you'll have a reason to hold Scourge.
That's not even correct. Scourge only has to be higher than your AVERAGE GCD potency for you to use it, not your highest potency period.
>If you want to be shit at the game.
No, shit at the game is if you start firing off DA and Bloodspiller as soon as they're up, instead of only using them if it's the only way to prevent yourself from hitting 100% on MP/Blood, when there are party buffs up to boost their damage, the fight/phase is about to end, or there's some other reason to stack your damage into a specific span of time.

As long as you aren't losing uses of DA/Bloodspiller, you get the full potency out of every use no matter when you actually perform the action, which means that you perform best when you fit as many DAs/Bloodspillers as you can into your windows of party buffs. That's like the entire fucking point of DRK in Stormblood, and you should be ashamed if you've been going around trying to speak authoritatively about it without realizing that.

Lately I can't even do the shitty daily roulettes as healer anymore. So many fucking retarded ape shitting tanks out there that refuse to use any def cooldowns on trash.

I do that every time I see a healer just stand around doing nothing while I pull half the dungeon. If you don't want to DPS I'll make you heal insane amounts of damage instead.
>>
>>380008801
I don't think a parser would directly help, and here's why: in and of itself it doesn't prevent a bad player from reaching any content.
I think putting more checks in the game would help (dps checks for some boss fights, heal checks, tank checks, etc.)
To some extent this is present in Job quests, but I don't think they go far enough.
A parser would help when a player is experimenting with rotations or wants to measure their performance in general, but it's only a small part of the solution.
The game also needs to be more clear about rotations, a Novice Hall-like thing for intermediate players would be nice. Something job-specific to help players learn exactly how their skills fit together and how effective they can be.
I do appreciate for your apology, I know how it is sometimes.

>>380009624
The blunt purpose of a parser is that it TELLS you, OBJECTIVELY, whether or not you're doing good DPS. Speaking from experience, almost everyone reckons they're "pretty good" at DPS, whereas if they were to activate a parser, they'd realise they were (for the most part) complete trash. Some people would shrug and not really care, but I'd like to think at least some would go "wtf, what can I do to make my dps better?" and improve as a result.
>>
>>380009612
I'm always casting, though. Lately its more heal spam than dps because some tanks would die if I even let the 5sec cd on cleric stance run out.

I just love tanks with level 50 equipment in the pope dungeon near the end of HW that never takes any global cd but pulls as he pleases anyway.
>>
>>380009275
>you perform best when you fit as many DAs/Bloodspillers as you can into your windows of party buffs. That's like the entire fucking point of DRK in Stormblood

You apply it to whichever one(s) are going to fit inside the party buffs.

I don't know if you've realized this but there's a LOT of fucking party buffs in Stormblood, even compared to the Balance-based, post-AST 3.4+ era of Heavensward. There are a lot of opportunities for DRK to take advantage of them, compared to basically every other class in the game.
>>
>>380009624
I feel like if they wanna cut down on toxicity or whatever they should still implement personal parsers and maybe set out some numbers on what you could be reaching based on your gear.

The more tools the average player has to actually improve and be able to tell they're even doing something wrong in the first place, the better. Also another Novice Hall would be phenomenal, hopefully something you'd have to actually be able to complete before being let in the door for harder shit, though I doubt they'd go that far.
>>
>>380009813
True, but a lot of trash people would ignore that.
"Who cares, I'm clearing the content, I've done this dungeon before, it's my sub", etc.
The only way to actually guarantee you aren't passing the trash up the content chain is to prevent bad players from moving on until they git gud.

>>380008531
Based on the information we have (which is just outdated tooltips and very much subject to change), DRK beats WAR by a very thin margin on sustained DPS, WAR beats DRK by a much more considerable margin on burst DPS, and DRK beats WAR on party utility (unless tanks are constantly getting stunned/slowed/heavied in Stormblood but I kind of doubt that).

If one of my dps is either a BRD/MCH/BLM, and after one pull I find the healer not dpsing, then of course I'm going to do big pulls, nothing will go wrong if the healer is 100% focused on healing.

The only exception is if there is a sprout on the healer, then I will pull one group at a time to start (2~3) pulls, and then increase it to two groups and see how it goes from there.

Something like a distribution graph of other player's DPS numbers at that item level would be really really neat. Like "You are at Xth percentile for your job and item level".

So again, there's no decision making, it's just "use DA on Syphon Strike if you're near/at max MP, or just use it if a party buff is up" unlike the more complex previous iteration of DRK.

Thanks, but you haven't convinced me not to switch to the now-more-complex PLD.

>>380010458
No, all the high-uptime party mitigation is gone. Their party utility is limited to the new cross-class Reprisal (does no damage, doesn't require a Parry, 60s cooldown, 5s duration), and to The Blackest Night, which can be used on a party member to shield them for 10% of the DRK's HP.

Since it's 10% of the DRK's HP, though, it's basically a 17-18% shield on an equally-geared healer or DPS, which is actually pretty strong for dealing with stuff like Preys.

It varies by taste if managing resources is fun or not. It's a completely different gimmick than weaving in a bunch of oGCDs which may evoke a different aesthetic (MDA model definition) in some players.

Justify calling the Heavensward version of DRK's combos "more complex", and explain a relevant situation where there's any meaningful "decision-making" to be done.

And I hope you aren't going to say "Sometimes you need to put Delirium up!" because Delirium has a 90%+ uptime even if your only goal is to completely maximize DPS, and there's maybe 1-2 times per raid tier where there was any point in specifically trying to put it up even when you had the MP to deal more damage using DASEs.

From the OF:

“Koike incident”

A female player and celebrity named Miyu Koike, who also happened to be the host for FFXIV’s official Nico Nico channel show, had an incident she attempted to recruit 7 other players to play with her (this was broadcasted live at that time). Abyss of Darkness, a world 3rd Japanese group for Final Coil clear then sneaked into the party (6 of them), streaming themselves through an unofficial channel and then made fun of Koike through slanders, spinning the boss around, and made fun of her DPS performance. Worse, Koike was also sexually harassed when the party disbands.

This prompted the Japanese community to punish the group sending hundreds of naked Roegadyns (Hageruga Matsuri, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOkhhTUjJi0). As a result, these trolls ended up changing their names, servers, deleted their Twitter accounts, issued a non sincere apology through their Nicovideo live broadcast (which further angered the community).

Finally the group ended up a temporary ban given by the lead community representive, Foxclon himself.
The incident did not end in a sweet note however, therefore the group is currently monitored.

I think the normal tails with the colored tips would be the best if the tip wasn't tied to your hair's highlight color.

You can't do a Silvester tail without being a black hair white highlight shitter.

I've gotten it a few times with monk
At that point you can jump on anyone and burst them with axe kick and somersault before the healer even has time to react

Someone please tell me there is going to be a better way to level up on Stormblood apart from just buying potions. I just spent the entire weekend to get an AST from 30 to 50 by spamming PotD like a nigger, and realizing that I'll need to spend even more time to get to 60 makes me want to kill myself.
