Fucking hidden stats

Those stats aren't important enough to worry about. As THM/BLM you care more about spell speed and direct hit.

>>383640550
They also don't exist anymore, chance to hit and dodge are tied directly to the difference in level between you and the thing you're hitting, rather than being based off the old evasion/accuracy stats.

>>383640370
I didn't even know there was a dodge stats

>>383640891
Yes because they implemented things to try and salvage their shit ideas like guildhest. Gets way better in HW

>>383641180
There is a solution in the cash shop.
Also I think the 2.4 and 2.5 patches had some good story stuff going on with them.

What do I do as a sub-60 SMN between aetherflow cooldowns and when out of stacks? I feel like I'm doing fuckall damage. Do I have to time my shit like fester, bane, or painflare to align better with the cooldown or do I just burn everything away and ruin while maintaining my two DoTs until the cooldown's done?

Rouse/enkindle on cooldown, after that it's pretty much bio/miasma then ruin spam. If you use garuda, you can stack stuff on contagion dots and shadowflare during it but meh.

>>383642731
I'm sure you have plenty of mobs to DoT. Since Bane doesn't spread your DoTs at 100% to the mob, individually DoTing them after a Bane could take up a lot of time.

>>383643065
As a tank Aurum Vale is nice. As a healer it's pain never ending.

No. But I want to level it anyway because I have to level all DoM jobs. I figured if I level SMN and RDM at the same time, then do AST and WHM, I'll save armory space.
>>383643501
I'll keep a closer eye on rouse/enkindle, then. I have both egis on sic since contagion can't be wasted anymore, not sure if that's correct though.
>>383643517
Seems reasonable, thanks.

Also, ruin III all the time or just until I feel like my mp is taking too hard a beating? I know ruin II is for movement, and ruin III has reduced cost during dreadwyrm, but I'm unsure when it's appropriate to use ruin or ruin III outside of dreadwyrm trance.

Yeah, it should be an o-yoroi and sam should share with drg, but yoshi is a hack that watched too many Edo period samurai movies and gave us a fucking robe and share with mhiggers.

How do I get a callback trial if I barely remember my character name? Does it let you add offline people as friends?

Are tancity and piety tied to any of the 5 attributes, or can you only increase them with gear?

Also, are invisble stats (stats that are only listed on gear effects) like gathering always 0 unless youre getting a bonus from gear? To clarify, would my gathering always be 0 unless im getting a gathering bonus from a piece of gear?

>>383644009
I already play limbo with tank hp to get as much use as possible out of the ast skill that has better potency lower the health.

Also, muh commendations.

>>383640891

Only 2.1-2.3 is boring. 2.4 and 2.5 are both great.

You should also be doing the content that came out with those patches aside from the main story, like the still-great Crystal Tower raids.

>>383644158
Have you tried switching to gathering class and looking at your stats then?

I can't stop playing DRK. Why is Blackest Night such an amazing skill?

>>383643936
Dots are snapshot meaning if you apply them under contagion the 10% damage will apply until the dots run out. Doesn't apply to shadowflare but since it's on the same cooldown and is ogcd, you might as well time it.

Mind you, the MT probably should have moved, but they're hardly the only person at fault here. Healers are the most entitled bitches sometimes.

>>383644086
SAM should wear heavy armor, wield a naginata/odachi, and be a tank.

>>383644235
The first boss of Labyrinth is probably the hardest bit of 24 man content in the game currently.

At least that's how it felt when I did it few days ago for Khole.

>>383644323
Oh, I didnt know changing class also changed what stats you can see. I just started and my character is leveled enough to change class yet

>>383642731

SMN pre-70 got raped with the expansion, sorry. It used to be the most fun job to play, especially in AoE situations where they were the best job by a massive margin.

It's still a good and enjoyable job for single target boss fights at level 70, but only then. Which is like 1% of the content in the game right now. At least Omega is mostly single target.

What really upsets me is people are saying nu-smn is complex now. It isn't complex you retards it's just more punishing if you die. You aren't managing your attunements, you are not managing shadowflare uptime, you are managing one less dot and if you do the current accepted opener correctly you don't have to reapply your two dots manually until a minute or more after you start due to how they changed tri. They made it super fucking lazy and boring

>>383644940

The current SMN opener is a lot longer and more elaborate than the HW ones though. It has a little less oomph due to nerfed burst and Deathflare/Akh Morn being overused so it feels less special, but it's still pretty satisfying.

>>383645484

not him, but clunkiness undeniably makes a class more difficult. you could argue whether or not it's good game design to inject difficulty in such a manner, but there's no fucking doubt at all in any reasonable person's mind that if you make a class CLUNKY AS FUCK, then it ipso facto becomes difficult to play. you can't really dispute that.

The two of them used to be married but Rowena racked up a huge amount of debt in her name and generally wasn't happy, so Gerolt transferred all the debt to himself and divorced her so she could have a clean slate and a new life
Now Rowena is pissed at him for divorcing her when she was unhappy before and wants to keep him in crippling debt to her

I have never seen anyone complain about Bahamut or SMNs in the game, but then again I mostly play with skilled players. If you have a problem with Bahamut then that means you aren't constantly moving the camera and that doing so is somehow hard for you, which means you have zero raid awareness and you are a shitter I don't want in my group.

Sure, it can happen in your head as often as you want, but it's not nearly as explicit as having other NPCs go "Oh, look, I think he likes you tee hee hee".

>>383652618
I'm not at level 66, but I'm guessing I use Jolt II>Aero/Thunder and then Impact if Fire or Stone don't proc? That makes sense, I thought that using Aero or Thunder would cancel out the ability to use Impact.

Not sure what's wrong with that since I clarified that the story is terrible. At least in other MMOs you have other options for unlocking the endgame content as opposed to slogging through endless dialogue regarding some retarded cunt and her quest to be as important as possible.

WoL doesn't care for romance and sex.

How's it feel knowing you could've done anything else with your life other than report to Minifilia 500 times?

>>383653995
>I played WoW before you were born, bby :)
the post you quoted is even more fitting now.

>>383654172
It's illegal to be underage on 4chan ;)

>>383652390
The chick from the BTN quest and the lizard girl from the WAR quest are both after your dick. I'm sure there are more.

>>383653626
Theres nothing to do besides logging in for roulettes. Already geared the jobs I wanna play with ease taking almost no time at all. Waiting on Deltascape savage but even then they needed way more ready for launch like the new aqua, potd, and a beast tribe at the very least.

>>383654128
Nah but for real the story gets good later on.
If I was the XIV dev team, I'd actually go back and clean up/shorten the opening quests.

>>383653874
What's wrong with their run animation?

>>383654027
I always been strangely lucky to find static.
I've been in this one since alex.
You should try posting in the PF with the job you want and try a bunch of times.

>implying that's not completely contrary to their goal of jewing a few more dollarys from the players with skip items
>implying XIV's story ever gets good outside of a few odd questlines, who stand out even more compared to the nonsense horseshit surrounding them

>>383654331
This is my point. If the quests were condensed in the earlier expansions, not leaving people with the dilemma of slog through 100+ hours of bullshit or pay $40, there wouldn't be a problem. Some of the quests were borderline retarded, and others were just "teleport to this person and talk to them." The loading screens pissed me off more than anything.

>>383652712
I like to imagine the WoL and Lyse spent the time waiting for Hien and Gosetsu to finish Bardam's Mettle fucking behind the rocks.

>>383654482
not him but I assume the trap snapped its spine

poor guy
I know the whole "they're just like rats" thing but that's still awfully sad

>>383654556
>run to random village in the middle of nowhere that you're not attuned
>talk to guy
>report to Minfilia

WHY

>>383654019
yes, I do think you fucking didn't.

>>383653874
Face 1 is also very used and you can make 2 work, 3 and 4 are abominations.

>>383640891
I want to see Yugiri's cute face already!

>>383654734
It's disturbing that you would feel less bad if it were a rat.

>>383651542
What's infusion?

>>383654595
Sometimes I think I should start writing fan fiction or some shit.

Then I remember that XIV fan works are entirely made up of yaoishit and I realize what a waste of time it would be.

>>383654863
that's not what I meant, it's just other people claim they're just as much of a pest as rats
mouse traps are pretty cruel

>>383654979
The lore is too good to write fanfiction.

>>383654863
Rats are often portrayed as filthy creatures, pests and bearing all sorts of illnesses and plague. It's not really a surprise people would consider their existence entirely differently from squirrels.

>>383654979
you'd be the unique individual at least.
The one guy producing straight smut fics in the sea of Aymeric/Estinien yaoi shit.

>>implying that's not completely contrary to their goal of jewing a few more dollarys from the players with skip items

From people too faggy to just play through a 2 week story.

Lmao

suck my fucking dick dude

>>383654995
You know what's cruel? A rat infestation. Like a really bad one, where your house is at the risk of coming down because the little shits are fucking with the foundation.

Rats are pests, anon. They carry a shit ton of diseases and can cause you a lot of trouble. Don't let Pixar movies convince you otherwise. Would you have pity on a cockroach?

>>383655229
gladly, as long as you're not a hambeast.

>>383655083
You do understand what lore is?
Lore being good is basically one of the biggest reasons of writing fan fiction. Taking lore and writing your own stories into and around it.

Just skip cutscenes, if you don't care about the story whatever but buying the game then paying to skip 99% of the content just to get to 4 boss fights as soon as possible is retarded

>>383655315
you too

>>383655386
I obviously didn't skip 99% of the content if I did Stormblood, retard.
