So I just learned Riddle of Fire. When should I use it? Right after perfect balance when I reapply Demolish?
>>
>>382311036
Right after the second snap punch or buff, that way when you're weaving oGCD's into the gcds they get the bonus damage benefit.
>>
>>382311170
Wouldn't that cause you to fuck up your PB combo? I guess it wouldn't matter anymore since you have one less GCD before GL3 is refreshed after PB wears off, but it feels weird.
>>
>>382311036
Here's my opener:
Form Shift for immediate Snap Punch ---> Perfect Balance for 2 Snap Punchs until GL3 ---> Dragon Kick > Twin Snakes > RoF&IR for Demolish ------> rotation with oGCDs.

Since we dont have touch of death, it works out. We gained no new attacks, lost a couple, and what we did gain only two of them are used in an opener(Riddle of Fire +Brotherhood immediately after using forbidden chakra)

The old opener mostly works, but you have to tweak it to make it work with the slowdown of Riddle of Fire. I haven't had any troubles keeping GL3 through the opener and before a phase change. Phase changes, on the other hand, suck ass and Riddle of Earth is god awful. It's pretty much always just better to Tornado Kick unless you're absolutely certain using riddle of Earth will make you keep your stacks.

What timeline my dude?
>>
>>382311737
I just did Laksmi for the first time and yeah, I did Demolish - Perfect Balance -> SP - Diversion -> SP - Riddle of Fire -> Dragon Kick - Internal Release -> Twin Snakes - Forbidden Chakra -> SP so it looks like you don't have to modify it at all if you have perfect uptime (and use PB late after the first Demolish), I thought RoF would mess it up more than that. Riddle of Earth is extremely useful too, I never dropped GL in that fight aside from her ultimate (when I had PB anyway) because of it.
>>382311296
Shouldn't it be more DPS to open with Demolish since it wears off by the end of PB/your first combo after PB? That's how it was in HW and it seems like it still works that way now, you still get the second Demolish buffed by IR/RoF.

It's 350 potency vs 180 potency basically. The only advantage is getting your fully buffed Demolish up 3 GCDs sooner, but unless you miss a Demolish in the fight because of that it's not a DPS loss.

You shouldn't.
Buy a 60-day timecard and activate it a month before the expansion, so you have ample time to catch up and a leisurely month to enjoy the expansion after. If you strip this game back beyond its arbitrary lockouts there's startlingly little novel content, and a casual player can see probably 90% of it without any grinding whatsoever. Honestly, I enjoy raiding but I aint touching it ever again until they completely prevent idiots from joining and sabotaging learning/clear parties; because when your party of dicktards hit the enrage in Sophia EX unsynced with echo there's something critically wrong with either your difficulty balancing or player-education, and if you're not committed to training people to be good you'd better quarantine the bad.

why do people complain about the aether currents

i always found them a fun little guided exploration challenge

the locks was a standout because even if you knew where some of the currents were, it wasn't obvious exactly how you reached them, like that one near the starter aetheryte that required you to navigate halfway around the zone to reach unless you had a friend with a 2-seater that could just fly you up

Everyone was bitching about this when we found out about the Dungeon list prior to release, but I thought they pulled the Ala Mhigo raid off pretty well. It would have been more accurate to call it Ala Mhigo palace anyway, since thats where most of the dungeon happened.

The little boy has the ability to summon anyone from your memories. He uses it to make you re-fight a slideshow of enemies from throughout the MSQ.

If AST go with Au Ra, Midlander or Elezen.
Midlanders are the best if you plan to play a healer because they work as any of the three, but miqote don't work as AST or SCH; nor do Au Ra as SCH or WHM.

For reference I base these suggestions on absolutely nothing.

Red Scrips will function the same way your Tomestone of Poetics currently do: for somewhat non-relevant shit. Which means they don't really "phase" them out, but their usefulness is limited (and already is). You know, just like Poetic Tomestones.

I've seen conflicting data, one suggesting they actually outnumbered regular hyur. If the male features were not so ayylmao thin and it were possible to change horns between faces or more customization of scales I could have considered it. And if the women were what they were supposed to be before being turned into kawaii uguu it would have been fantastic. I'm sure someone can make a case for sadu being such a spitfire and being short but a tall leggy succubus looking demon girl Sadu would have been even better.

I'm going to riot if they make female viera short and dainty. Though it's going to be a challenge to make male viera look imposing and not just like miqo'te fuckboys.

I can deal with the "weebshit" in the rest of the game, but Kugane and Othard are full on "folded 100000 times can cut through steel" bullshit.

>>382316746

The best part of Othard is unanimously cited as the Azim steppes where it's mongoria rather than Japan. Yangxia and the Ruby sea are Chinese.

Now yes Kugane was included entirely because of Japanese bias or catering to weebs, but it also was done in a way that did make some sense with the whole "neutral trading outpost of a cloistered kingdom which Thavnair is interested in for trade, the empire is interested in for trade and stability, and Eorzea is interested in for trade and to balance against the Garleans".


>>382316831

Meracydia is africa, not Eorzea. Meracydia is an untamed land without civilization to speak of inhabited entirely by dragons, beasts, beasttribes and maybe miqo'te who never left.

Eorzea is just the Greek city states to the Garlean's Persian Empire. Technically Roman but in terms of relationships it's a bunch of plucky city states resisting a massive international empire that dominates the world.

WoW has some pretty good music but it's all generic Hollywood fantasy music stuff with little creativity or out of the box design, more importantly instances and raids in WoW just use the same music you can hear outside, whereas in XIV, instance soundtrack shines.

Literally, yes. They were bullied into the "inhospitable frozen north" by the other races in antiquity because they aren't able to use magic. They found fuckloads of Ceruleum up there and invented magiteck and now they're getting revenge.
>>
>>382316902

Also the Idyllshire 210ish gear was samurai-y. So was the drops from either T2 or T3 of the raids, not void arc. When we go to Arabian-Nights Thavnair and South Ilsabard we'll have lots of Arabbiiaann niiighhhttssss outfits and clothing and classes Dancer and blue mage. When we go to Sharlayan it'll be lots of ye old english looking shit like we got in the Dravinian Hinterlands old Sharlaya dungeons. Northern/Central Ilsabard is supposed to be cold and mountainous and miserable and that's where Garlemand is (also pollutted to fuck and back. Expect FF7 basically).

>>382317037
They cling to the references of Eorzea being savage primitives by the empire ignoring they are also a bunch of independently minded city-states (which is not very african). Since you have magitek romans co-existing with samurai and gothic Germanic elves, it's not going to correspond perfectly to real life. Eorzea fulfills the role of the Greeks fighting against the Persians a hell of a lot more than the Romans engaged in a ceaseless struggle with not-africa.


>>382317161
Climatically it does not match africa. It's Mediterranean South-West (Limsa), Desert/scrubland Thanalan, European temperate Gridania, Indo-Persian Ala Mhigo climatically yet culturally more akin to standard bog highlander scots and shit, Gothic Ishgard.

When you realize what "can't use magic" means it begins to make them a lot more sympathetic. That doesn't mean they can't be conjurers and thaumaturges. It means they can't do fucking anything involving aether. Gladiator/Paladin blink uses aether. Probably the majority of abilities for classes and jobs that isn't just your level 1-10 attacks involve aether.

The thing is a relaunch like that shouldn't have actually worked, especially with the issues when ARR did launch that caused them to stop selling the game for a period. But it did and here we are now. Hell, the documentary revealed that the main reason they went through with ARR to begin with was because they didn't want to have a numbered Final Fantasy be considered a failure.

>but it's all generic Hollywood fantasy music stuff

What? How is this a "generic hollywood fantasy" piece? Even in modern wow which is obsessed with horns blaring in the background the music is often slow and mellow as it builds up into something.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0kK1zvoEOk
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6SwU3C9cyc
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iu5oGgSHqQ4

And if you think that qualifies as hollywood shit then the 1812 Overture might as well be in a Michael Bay movie.

FFXIV's music definitely wins out in raids and most dungeons, but WoW generally has better ambient music. Furthermore, Stormblood's music has also been lackluster compared to Heavensward. I don't get how we can go from Ishgard's theme and the Dravanian Forelands to something that just sounds like watered down Azys Lla.

This has to just be the northern hemisphere, although I suspect given there's no mention of any land masses to the south it's either completely undiscovered and is simply further away than the safe range of an airship, or that there is nothing there/there is some impassable barrier akin to Ys' Vortex of Canaan that prevents exploring the southern half of the world.

Expecting Eorzea to make any sense climatically is a fool's errand because of the very high aether levels compared to other contients. The only reason Coerthas is covered in snow is because the calamity played haywire with aether in the area anyway.

Guys this has been bothering my autism for a while.
Is Paladin or Warrior closer to FF1's Fighter?
In FF1 the Fighter [戦士] class advances through Bahamut to a Knight [ナイト] who hits really hard and can cast low level white magic.
FFXIV Paladin in JP is named ナイト and the Warrior is named 戦士.
In FFXIV Paladin can use White Magic, but Warrior does the damage and also uses axes like in FF1.
But the Paladin relic weapons Excalibur and Aegis Shield were exclusive to the Fighter from FF1.
Also the Amano Warrior of Light gear from Labyrinth of the Ancients is for tanks and not exclusively Paladin.
On top of this, in FF11, the starting jobs are from the original FF1: Warrior, Thief, White Mage, Black Mage, Red Mage, Monk
But the advanced jobs in FF11 include Knight and Ninja, the job advancements of Warrior and Thief.
So considering all this, is Knight/Paladin or Warrior closer to the FF1 Fighter/Warrior/Knight

>Terrible class design, and game design in general

They literally ignored all beta reports and decided "people will buy it anyway"
>and realized the game was designed by people who bought into the "Vanilla WoW was da best experience evuh" meme and even took what Vanilla WoW did and exaggerated it.
Wrong again
The only thing that wildstar had in common with vanilla wow was 40ppl raids
Even fucking ToR did a better job by putting elite mobs and locations with elite mobs in the leveling zones
Wildstar tried to copy wotlk in everything
>Every class could do anything
>Most of classes had both dps and healer specs and could perform both roles
>Terrible braindead raids that were build around achievments and other eceleb garbage
And don't even start with prequests for dungeons, until SB launched ARR had 60-80hours playtime to unlock endgame raids, 80 fucking hours, in wildstar it took week at most and was boring as hell, no quests in middle of dungeon like kara key in bc, just mindless farm to unlock
And I personally will never forgive wildstar developers for trying to shield blame for their shit game with "we designed game for the hardcore players, that was a mistake"

I'm looking for someone a bit edgy, preferably one who is incapable of doing wrong.
>>
>>382322145
Yeah, I don't know the actual reason, but I can easily guess what happened.

Japan is probably shit like "Ao Kojin", Ao can be either green or blue. They probably got the script and translated everything figuring it would be Blue and put it into the game, then saw the Kojin were green and said "shit"

Guarantee this comes up at a live letter or forum post.

>>382322145
Hancock explains it if you talk to him during the quest where the Kojin bro comes into Ruby Bazzar. But you have to talk to him during the quest, it's not in the mandatory dialogue, you have to literally right click him instead of Alphinaud or whoever or he will never explain it to you. The explanation is basically japanese aoi is green and blue.

>You will never interact with Estinien ever again now that he has truly ended Nidhogg.

Feels bad man.

SB had Gosetsu, Yugiri, Hien, and the dragons
HW had Haurchefant and his dad, Estinien, Alphinaud finally not being a little bitch, and the Vath Deftarm

The Bend of Time was a place in Chrono Trigger that worked identically to the ffv Interdimensional rift

The dragons were shitty UNGA BUNGA COMBAT niggers.

>Alphinaud will never accompany you now that his sister is back
But he still does accompany you a bunch during SB. Both him and Alisaie are meant to be the "main" companions so we'll always have one or the other around, many times both. Which is good because they're some of the only characters that they make me keep caring about.

I keep beating BLMs in aoe as SAM pre-70. What gives?
>>

I shouldn't have clicked this

SAM and RDM are hilariously overpowered. They may or may not get a nerf in the coming Omega normal mode release patch.
>>
SAM story quests are shit

The clouds are just fog of war. When we get there on 5.0 we will see the whole thing.
>>
>>382323331
they were ok
>>
>>382323273
SAM's the only overpowered one. RDM just sits about equal to MNK/NIN which I guess should count as overpowered because they're still stronger than the other casters.
>>
>>382323223
BLM at 60 is kind of mediocre at AOE ever since the flare nerf. Also, fire 2 got nerfed.

Things start ramping up once they get thunder 4 (64), Enhanced Umbral Heart (68) to double flare in their normal rotation, and Foul at 70, which is a 650 potency AOE with falloff every 30s. At 70 they're by far the strongest AOE DPS in the game.
>>
>>382323331
were the rdm ones any better? I leveled my sam to 70, was typical anime shit. but debating on rdm vs drg vs nin depending on which story is better
>>
>>382323254
not even the best part of the quest

what do you guys buy with wolf marks after getting all garo sets

new pvp gear for glamor

RDM is pretty neat. You get cat Dante and a waifu and some cool instanced fights, including the last one that takes place in Mhach.
>>
>>382323418
RDM is currently the weakest caster. But they're close to the other two and really fucking easy to play.

But SMN is clunky as fuck and BLM still has timers and movement to deal with, which RDM really doesn't.
>>
Midlander Hyur girls are literally the cutest
>>
>>382323585
How the fuck you even store all this shit?
>>
>>382323657
>RDM is currently the weakest caster.
Wrong. Don't take that random twitter post of the dummy parses as gospel, actual fight parses have proved otherwise that they're above the other two casters by a decent amount.
>>
>>382323769
I would tell you to haul yourself back to /xivg/ but the thread's already over

Not anymore now that we've seen data from actual fights be collected.

Yojimbo has a walking animation, easier to Port.

Anyone have Melds, best opener, general oGCD tips for RDM? I still get clipping when I try to double weave with Acceleration.
>>
>>382324201
Stack crit/direct hit. Opener is just precast whatever with Acceleration then do normal stuff. And you're retarded if you can't handle their oGCDs.
>>
>>382324036
FFlogs still isn't reading SB data completely right so I wouldn't put the stock into current logs (also all the good casters jumped ship)
>>
>>382322047
it's translated as paladin in every other language too and it's how they did it in ff11

"knights" have always been equipped with low tier white magic in final fantasy so paladin isn't a particularly bad way to call them in english unless you enjoy generic names like "dragon knight" instead of dragoon too.
>>
>>382324338
>(also all the good casters jumped ship)
Excuses. We also have people posting parses outside of fflogs which correlates the data that RDM is stronger than the other two casters.
>>
>>382318272
i'd be ultra mad if we dont actually get to GO to sharlayan
>>
>>382323795
You do know that FFLogs is showing Thunder III's DoT as 10x weaker right now right? Add 400-500 DPS to every BLM.
>>
>>382324435
I mean, I dunno about you but I think "Dragon knight" is kinda cool. Conjures images of knights using the power of dragons to fight, which incidentally is how DRG operates now.
