Tales of Symphonia.
Being able to play the game along side 3 other friends was the most fun I had on gamecube outside of PSO.

And I'm still looking for a Katana that look like the Sealed J Sword of PSO in FFXIV!
>>
>>383694040
No way, it's still literally impossible. The bosses from floors 120+ got nerfed, but mobs themselves still hit like a truck and are damage sponges.
You need to get extremely lucky, otherwise you simply don't have enough time to get through.
186 is the farthest someone got.
>>
>>383694142
That's still slow, and the problem is, none of those flashy effects actually have any impact, and you're going to be doing them for 15 minutes whilst staying out of red areas because FFXIV does literally nothing interesting. It's a more bland, weeb WoW with half the content.

There are tons of black katanas or katanas that you can jet black the shit out of them.
None of them have purple seals or turns into a generic giant blade, but at least you don't need to kill +10000 enemies to make it throw laser beams around (no mag or photon blast required either), just get two sens and you are good to go.

Seriously nigga? BDO is the most dry shit for solo play imaginable, quests, especially main story quest, are barebones as fuck and doesn't even try to tell coherent story. Lore in general is either really dry or nonexistent, knowledge tiers literally doesn't matter for anything but combat bonuses.

It could have been a really great immersion mmo in mabinogi style, but it changed direction half way through production and so we get another korean grinder with zerg pvp and dolls to dress up

I actually miss a lot the time when it was scarce when we could get 24 man frontlines.
It was so much more fun and tactic based than 72 man, and stealing bases was actually worth it.

>>
>>383694785
The 4.01 patch said it changed exp rates based on match length. Do frontlines besides shatter give more exp now or what?

I did PvP for the first time in SB and while I had a good time, I only ever got Shatter despite using frontline roulette exclusively, since people only queue specifically for it and not the others.

Make it so that the majority of exp comes from Frontlines roulette instead of the map itself, with no daily limit on exp from the roulette.
>>
>>383696858

It is always shatter because of sheer amount of people that are wanting to get it.

Seize and Secure are 72-mans too. It's always Shatter because people queue for Shatter specifically.

Black Desert is the most solo friendly mmorpg, just don't expect "endgame" because all it's content is supposed to be played during leveling.
>>
>>383697834
>>383697712
Shatter is the better EXP grind cause it's shorter per match. So, giving more EXP to the other maps somehow would even things out. I don't mind Shatter, but a change now and then is nice.
>>
>>383697912
>So, giving more EXP to the other maps somehow would even things out
Is that not what they did?

From the 4.01 notes:
>Class/Job EXP gained from participating in PvP encounters has been adjusted to take match durations into account.
>>
>>383698004
The change is less EXP for getting 2nd or 3rd place. The maps don't give different EXP, not that I would know since Shatter is the only map that pops when you queue for roulette.
>>
>>383698536
That's a separate note.
>Victories and losses will now award different amounts of EXP.
How the fuck could you interpret as "takes match durations into account" as "less exp for 2nd and 3rd"?
>>
>>383695372
>>383695854
I don't know how to prove it to you other than telling you to play the game, but.

Legion, WoD, MoP and Cata gone still leaves WotLK, BC and Vanilla. And the vanilla world in itself is at least 3 times as big as Eorzea.

Shinryu does not have any difficult mechanics, he is just punishing if you do fuck up. If you don't move to the edge for Tidal Wave, you'll die. If you stand in the wrong spot on meteors, you'll die. If you can't kill the adds fast enough, you'll die. If you repeatedly get hit by his highly telegraphed attacks, you'll die. None of these things are difficult to avoid, you just need a few braincells to rub together, but that is asking too much of this playerbase.

I can understand that, I also enjoy the non-multiplay features of MMOs (character progression, housing, weapon/dress-up/pet collection, etc) but unfortunately they are really rare on single player games. Other than these "Massively Singleplayer Online with optional multiplayer" games (like Phantasy Star Online, Warframe, Spiral Knights, etc), Terraria is the only singeplayer example I can remember right now.
I don't hate multiplayer that much, I just don't enjoy playing with strangers and my friends prefer fast-paced, match-based games.

i get you, definitely. i spent years in guilds where i basically took care of people, did a lot of stuff to help others, and now that i moved to a new server i made my own solo FC. i'm still helpful, i chat with some folks but I like having my own thing, not have to worry about events, have to babysit others, etc.

I play at my own pace now, and I'm having more fun than I ever did back in the day. I log on, do my dailies, gather, do some quests, work more on MSQ, make money, etc.

This is fun for me. It won't be for others, but damn I enjoy it.

You misread though, I still play with others, chat with them, but I like not having to have to organize events, help FC members with everything every single day I log on, etc.

I'm also an older player, most likely older than you, so i kinda put those days of playing MMO's traditionally a bit behind me.

I don't isolate myself completely, I still interact with folks and do duty finder/party finder. I just like the aspect of having my very own thing with no responsibilites, no commitments and at my own pace.

Even with the Sustain pots, that fight was an absolute bitch compared to the 160 boss. I ended up just kiting the 4 adds around so I didn't waste time dpsing them, I killed them Contre when they all stacked up instead.

The boss heals whenever she eats the succubus so if you get to the boss without much time left you might be screwed. You also only need to get the succubus to like 75% for the hit to be survivable, rather use the rest of the time dpsing the boss itself.

Just the final boss, since he's a litmus test of almost all major boss battles in the game, and it is painfully obvious who the bads are and who were carried in earlier content.

Nah, do it after Enchanted Zwerchau so you still have the max 20% buff when you do Redoublement and Verholy/Verflare. Riposte and Zwerchau do shit damage anyway.

I pop after the gap closer, before I start the melee combo. Enchanted melee benefits from the magic bonus, and the nearby melee will benefit from the physical damage.

>For your opener, it’s not exactly going to be 100% consistent since this class relies so much on procs, but there are a few rules to keep in mind when executing your opener.

>You should always weave oGCDS after a Dualcast.
>Corps-a-corps and Displacement should be used before Manafication since Manafication will reset them anyways.
>Embolden should be happening after Enchanted Riposte.

>>
>>383710486
Assuming you're in 100/100.
Do your melee combo then verflare/holy, then one of your gauge will be at 40, fill up the other one up to 45 then use Manafication then do your melee combo again.
In case you don't know, Manafication doubles your current mp gauges and resets corps and displacement.
>>
>>383709932
Are you sure that isn't runescape?

>>383693410
Maplestory.

as an example

>melee combo and verholy for 41/20
>verfire and verthunder for 41/40
>manafication to 82/80
>melee combo
>verflare will still be under 2 stack embolden
If you do this without the initial proc, you have to joly/verthunder swiftcast verthunder and that takes 3 gcds, where the proc and verthunder takes 2. This means verflare will be under 1 stack of embolden.
>>
>>383712201
>hardcasting verthunder/aero

For what purpose.
>>
>>383712201
I'm assuming you didn't put that together but is it better DPS overall to pop Manafication for the first melee combo? I do the first melee combo without it, build the 40/40 as quick as possible, pop manafication and do the melee combo again. .
>>
>fw I want to play WoW but I neither want to play a max level character nor start over again

but I don't have a max level of every class yet

what do
>>
>>383712557
Hardly seems worth it. You have to delay manafication to build up to 100/100 instead of just popping it when you first hit 40/40, then you need to spend 2-3 GCDs to build back to 40/40, so by the time you get back to redoublement and verflare/holy, embolden is mostly gone.
>>
>>383713078
If someone uses a timer you can totally hardcast it before the fight starts.
>>
>>383713078

You precast it during the countdown to the fight, why wouldnt you cast a stronger spell than Jolt while you're doing nothing and the fight hasnt started?
>>
>>383713163
You did read the word "assuming" right?
Plus you don't you have to do 100/100 you just need the bare minimum to do enchanted melee. You should only ever reach 100 when you have to move around and can't do anything but cast spells.
>>
>>383710514
>reddit: the mmo
>>
>>383713228
But wouldn't it be better to do something like:
Acceleration>Jolt2>Verthunder/Aero?
That's one extra spell and you also get Impactful.
>>
>>383713105
>I'm assuming you didn't put that together but is it better DPS overall to pop Manafication for the first melee combo?

Yes, your goal is to get to your melee combo asap at the start so it can be buffed by Trick Attack etc.
>>
>>383713137
Masturbate and start playing FF14 or Black Desert instead
>>
Is there anything worth buying with Poetics to make money out of?
>>
>>383713481

How is it an extra spell? Hard casting Verthunder/aero would Acceleration > Verthunder > Veraero sure you dont get impactful but you get to do 600 potency of damage in the beginning of the fight and then go into whatever you procced with acceleration
>>
What are the chances that SCH is going to receive buffs in next weeks patch?
>>
>>383713590
but those are two shit games
>>
>>383713353
If you only had 80/80 then by the time you've built up enough mana to do another melee combo then embolden would be completely gone. It's basically just a really roundabout way of saying "use manafication at 40/40" which is a normal part of the RDM rotation anyway. I don't feel like it would really be worth trying to deliberately set up two quick melee combos so you could maybe get a 2-4% buff on Redoublement and Verholy. Like, it's probably a DPS increase, but a really marginal one for a lot of extra effort.

I am legit curious.
Why go to a mmo to play solo?
Most single player games offer better solo content, better gameplay and have better storytelling than mmos.

That being said.
lord of the rings online is pretty confy anf the zones are huge and awesome to explore

elder scrolls online is pretty fun and "delves" (solo dungeons) are usually interesting

secret world legends, investigation missions have you trying to solve really hard puzzles and sabotage missions are semi stealth mixed with a bit of combat and puzzle solving. The atmosphere and the characters is very different and really interesting compared to the rest of the mmos in the market

This is true. The only time I didnt follow this when during a downtime where I didnt have to heal or the boss was in a weak state and it's better than standing there doing nothing. This is mostly only in the early dungeons. Dungeons get hard enough after that to focus only on healing. The gcd in this game is too large and the action queuing is too fucked up to afford dpsing between abilities.

WoW is more complex by the fact that it allows more agency on the player side. FF14 locks you into a rigid routine that runs on a slow clock. The combat in FF14 isnt important like it is in WoW. Thats just the design decision that they made at Square for some strange reason. Tho that reason is likely cause they wanted the game to be casual friendly and focus mainly on the story aspects.

No? Modern WoW is oversimplified combat where you spam one button and use your 4-5 cooldowns as they come up and your 1 situational cooldown as you need it. It's fucking braindead compared to FFXIV and even moreseo in actual content where addons tell you what to do.

Lakshmi Ex is probably one of the worst boring fights in XIV. At least post Susano, don't cherry pick the worst.
>>
>>383725512
No, I'm just not bad. I never go out of mana, DPS in dungeons, and never let the tank die. You're just bad at this game, which is probably because you're used to braindead WoW healing where you use healing touch 5000 times and do nothing else.

They're right though, you can't blame a healer for not dpsing. You can get mad at them, but they lined up as a healer, not a dps.

>>383725692
I wont because your mind is already made up. You consider FF14 harder because of your investment in it which is why I wont pursue that debate with you. I only care about the objective parts

>FF14: no various class playstyles, rotation-based combat with high gcd to keep it easy; most skills outside it are placed on long cooldowns to keep the player from spending too much brainpower having to cycle it all fast enough
>WoW: each class has three ways to play, with additional talent trees to allow divergence of playstyle even more; gcd is kept reasonable with constant procs to keep the action going; because players have to think faster due to faster rotations, combat tends to be more complex

Faster == more difficult. Thats game design 101. Whether it makes it more complex, I cannot say because WoW uses a different combat system than FF14.
>>
>>383724990
In XIV as long as the tank mitigates damage and the healer puts a regen/shield on the tank, they're good to go and should do damage to help end the fight quicker.

Only in early dungeons. Past level 40, you cant do that any longer.

t. shit healer
My friend heals better than you and does more damage than you'll ever do, only exception might be very big pulls, but that's all.
Either that or you've been paired with tanks who pop all their cooldowns at the start of a boss fight then don't bother afterwards.
Even in raids there is time to deal damage as a healer.

3 actions per 2.4 seconds (more if you play NIN) vs 3 actions every 3 seconds in WoW. FFXIV objectively is faster.

You're obviously cucked by FF14, which is why everything you answered with is mostly subjective.

But I will confront you about one thing: NIN.

Nin has higher apm, only because they do less dps. If they had the same dps as your standard gcd limited dps in FF14, they would be the most OP class ever. Square arent stupid enough to give a class the higher number of actions and also the same amount of dps. That's where the balance comes in. Thats why playing NIN is underwhelming. You don't play it to be a good dps.

>mostly subjective
Says someone whose entire argument is "much procs" when proc-based gameplay gets fucking boring when every class has a proc gimmick shoehorned in.
>You're obviously cucked by FF14
I guess I am, since it's a better game and not a slow oversimplified casual tablet game for retards with absolute fucking bottom-of-the-barrel trash bosses like WoW currently is.
>Nin has higher apm, only because they do less dps
NIN is only beat by SAM and MNK currently and they more than make up for the difference with Trick Attack and Shadewalker. The job doesn't have a low GCD because it has lower damage, you fucking retard, it has lower DPS because it's a fucking support and that difference is made up for by raising raid DPS. In fact, it's arguable that NIN has consistently been the absolute best job in the entire game since it was released bar none, even beating out SCH and WAR. Of course I doubt a retard who plays a 1-button rotation with procs game would understand that, even though MNK also exists with an identical GCD reduction and the second highest DPS in the game, and SAM exists with nearly the same GCD reduction and the highest DPS in the game.

AST and NIN are my best examples to bring up when I tell people why FF14's combat is shit. Square puts all the fun abilities on long ass cooldowns, so you're stuck using either 1 button or three for a combo while waiting for said ability to come back online. Instead of, for instance, making all of AST use a card based system to make it more fun and interesting. Or all of NINs abilities being off the Ninjutsu system (which btw, in a proper mmo, would be considered a different spec and allow a ninja to either focus more on ninjutsu spells or more on flippy, fast dagger play).

The game has a lot of potential to grow, but Aquare only cares about the bottom of the barrel of gamers. Aka the ones who dont want to play a game. They just want to "experience."

20 seconds isn't long.
>>

They haven't paid attention to previous primals and have been carried through so now with something that requires awareness they don't know what to do.
>>
>>383727323
Meanwhile in WoW you have 1 ability you spam and 5 on actually long cooldowns (not 20 seconds like Ninjitsu)
>>
>>383727427
FF14 has a problem where they expect people to google all their fights, save for the earlier dungeons that gave clues as to what you may face later on in a boss fight. Shinryu was a difficult spike for most of the fanbase who dont like reading. So parties are wiping since he's not your average spank and tank.
>>
>>383727564
>Meanwhile in WoW you have 1 ability you spam and 5 on actually long cooldowns
And 5 to 10 more abilities that are either proc'd constantly or are on short cooldowns.

The people I noticed having the most trouble with Shinyru are level boosters or people that are just returning to the game after not playing for years. They didn't see or obviously forgot the mechanics that were repeated through all of A Realm Reborn and Heavensward.

My other issue is with their weapon. Every other class has a basic sort of weapon, meanwhile AST has this autistic globe thing and Yu-Gi-Oh deck holder strapped to their thigh. Why not just a deck of cards that they hold/float around them? It'd be like Setzer or something.

Instead we end up with what we have. It reminds me of shitty korean MMOs where every class has some autistic weapon type like dual weilded laser axes with jet boosters on the side.

Plus every single AST weapon looks the fucking same.
>>
>>383727676
"short" cooldowns.
>>
>>383727807
A deck system would be totally fun. I was actually expecting that when the class was announced. But we ended up just getting the same healer with a card ability tacked on. Square couldn't have disappointed me anymore.

It's been a while since the last time I played it, but that first issue isn't so bad in my experience (there is a noticeable delay on damage input, but not on combat itself), and there is a fan-made updater that automatically applies the english patches (and it isn't as broken as the official updater when you have to download a big update).

histories most legendary BANTZ
Sultan Mehmed IV to the Zaporozhian Cossacks:

As the Sultan; son of Muhammad; brother of the sun and moon; grandson and viceroy of God; ruler of the kingdoms of Macedonia, Babylon, Jerusalem, Upper and Lower Egypt; emperor of emperors; sovereign of sovereigns; extraordinary knight, never defeated; steadfast guardian of the tomb of Jesus Christ; trustee chosen by God Himself; the hope and comfort of Muslims; confounder and great defender of Christians - I command you, the Zaporogian Cossacks, to submit to me voluntarily and without any resistance, and to desist from troubling me with your attacks.

--Turkish Sultan Mehmed IV

The Cossacks' reply came as a stream of invective and vulgar rhymes, parodying the Sultan's titles:[citation needed]

Zaporozhian Cossacks to the Turkish Sultan!

O sultan, Turkish devil and damned devil's kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are thou, that canst not slay a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil shits, and your army eats. Thou shalt not, thou son of a whore, make subjects of Christian sons; we have no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck thy mother.

Thou Babylonian scullion, Macedonian wheelwright, brewer of Jerusalem, goat-fucker of Alexandria, swineherd of Greater and Lesser Egypt, pig of Armenia, Podolian thief, catamite of Tartary, hangman of Kamyanets, and fool of all the world and underworld, an idiot before God, grandson of the Serpent, and the crick in our dick. Pig's snout, mare's arse, slaughterhouse cur, unchristened brow, screw thine own mother!

So the Zaporozhians declare, you lowlife. You won't even be herding pigs for the Christians. Now we'll conclude, for we don't know the date and don't own a calendar; the moon's in the sky, the year with the Lord, the day's the same over here as it is over there; for this kiss our arse!

So I'm looking at the new bard stuff and I like what they've done with the songs, but it looks like it gets really good when I get to Trabadour.

Until the community nerfs it, like Steps of Faith requiring 8 people to communicate, or The Royal Menagerie requiring people to have actually played much of the content up to current level cap.

Dumb PvP where you walk around looking for someone to do a specific and rigid combo on until one of you dies.

Yeah 8 man sch is still strong but leaves too much to the other healer with the nerfed to fuck fairy. Sch cds are still just too strong for them to be counted out but I need a dungeon healer and I'm torn between ast or whm. Whm is effective and strong but that's it it's dead boring to play while ast has a ton to do but the cards and lower dmg kills me.

its possible to make a sizeable chunk of money just leveling crafters. you have to spend top gil to stay on the cutting edge, in addition to keeping weird sleeping hours on patch day

as a perk, you get free materia melding and can double the durability of your equipment for merely having the crafters leveled

>Post a single WoW fight on par with Brute Justice in terms of complexity and diffculty.

The longest kill a FFXIV boss has ever taken was Twintania at 65 days, I don't know if pull count data exists. Most people wouldn't say that was the hardest encounter thought and barring that the next longest was A4S at a bit over a month.

Now obviously a direct comparison isn't entirely accurate for various reasons.
-A lot of people playing Vanilla-WotlK WoW were new to MMOs and had zero idea what raiding was
-WoW raids require the coordination of more people (10-40), while this may seem like a crutch (more people to fall back on) it absolutely isn't at the cutting edge.
-WoW has had at any given time a much larger number of people aiming for world firsts

But here is the short list: of everything over 65 days:
>Alone in the darkness at 70 days
>Ragnaros and chromaggus at 74 days
>C'thun at 85 days
>Ouro at 87 days

But if you ignore twintania and include everything longer than A4S:
>Al'Akir at 35 days
>Lich king 25 at 36 days
>Alar at 48 days
>Four horsemen at 56 days
>Solarian at 59 days

And if you want to just go by "mechanical difficulty" here's my opinion of fights harder/more complex than A4S:
>Mythic Paragons of the Klaxxi
>Mythic Garrosh
>Mythic Archimonde
>Heroic Saurfang
>Heroic spine
>Mythic Star Augur
>Heroic Lei Shen
>>
>>383717424
Maybe it's just the players being good enough to make it look easy, but the BDO and Vindictus gameplay doesn't look compelling at all. Like the XIV gameplay looks kind of boring but I can see some kind of mechanical stuff happening, the other two sort of look like the player is just mashing keys between dodges on a brainless enemy.

This is what you can get from each Deltascape fight once a week (until they uncap it). The pieces will tell you how many of each you need for a turn-in but basically it's "expensive armor = 4, cheap armor = 2, accessories and belts = 1 apiece"

Chest is the longest farm because you can't speed it up, it's always 1 piece a week max. And if you go for the chest piece, you can't get legs in two weeks, either.

A4S isn't that complex mechanically compared to A8S. The reason A8S was cleared so quickly is because the only people left in FFXIV's raiding scene had to git extremely good to clear Gordias because of the extremely tight DPS checks basically requiring you to be doing 100% of your possible DPS and doing every mechanic/strat perfectly or you'd wipe.

It should apply a vulnerability debuff or something to make it stand out. Casters' LB is better for adds when grouped on a tank, and melee is for single target kills, which range DPS gets the shaft (Forgive the pun).

If your carpenter is within 10 levels of the bow's required level to equip, you can repair it with Dark Matter, basically adding 99% durability to a maximum of 198%. its about 10% of the cost.

I would've agreed with them before leveling up a scholar, turns out you don't need to do anything 90% of the time because fairy-chan does the job and dpsing is boring as fuck now, no filler aoe, and st is spam broil II
The problem isn't that healers aren't supposed to dps, it's that you're bored as shit if you don't do it, and it being rewarding / fun is more important than one could think even as a healer.
But maybe these guys' problem is that people expect a certain dps from healers, which shouldn't be the case, that I agree.

WoW raids have longer clear times because of exactly what you said; people were new to MMOs at the time and still figuring shit out. It's the same reason Twintania took longer than T9S even though T9S is inarguably harder by far (even T9 normal is harder than Twintania)
Clear times are mostly meaningless because of this, especially in a game like WoW where the constant degradation into its current casual state has put off all raiders to the point where "good" groups are just shitters that farm for years to overgear content in order to clear it instead of getting good. While FFXIV is a game that came out in the modern era of datamining and autism crafting out everything to figure out the objective perfect way to do everything. The only reason A8S didn't take months was because after Gordias, the devs undertuned the DPS requirements for the fight. It doesn't change the fact that other than WoW raids being bloated to artificially make them take longer due to one person out of 40 fucking up everything instead of one person out of 8, A8S is still more difficult than anything in WoW. I'd argue T9S is too if you do it properly.
