Alright you parsing nerds, whats the ideal setup for ACT, tried it out today and every time I do Susano EX everyone's DPS drops dramatically when we enter the sword phase, I set the dmg tick to reset every 30 seconds but no matter what the second the sword appears on screen everyone drops 500-1000 DPS before the sword hits the tank.

People who obsess over dps numbers and parsing shouldn't bother playing this game, or any mmos.
When you make everything about numbers and optimal ways to get certain numbers and obsess over it you take away all the fun of the game.

People really love the idea of "unbeatable" bosses that even the best players in the game can't kill, until they are the ones actually trying to kill them. Then they all quit out of anger. Gordias nearly killed the game and now people are begging for something similar.
>>
>>384521565
30 seconds is fine for most encounters. Regardless of the setting FFlogs will parse the logs correctly if you upload them there. I set mine to 40 because of Lakshmi though, the downtime after adds is ridiculous.

Yes, because there's not 2 more raid tiers coming up. This is the only raid until the next expansion.

They're better now and losing GB isnt as bad with Stabilizer on a 60sec CD but Yoshi still hasnt given us a reason to use Overheat since its still a DPS loss and it could benefit with a slight increase to the potency of the Shots both Heated and Unheated

>Did the patch fix MCH?
You basically got a bit more damage, no utility, and your rotation was simplified even further than it already was.

I would have thought Overheating would be a damage gain if you did it during Wildfire.

>>384522917
what did the patch do to simplify your rotation

It's literally barely an increase. You could ignore overheating and your damage would be less but not by a whole hell of a lot.

>>

Given that Hotshot itself is a 8% damage gain now when you compare it to the 10% that Overheat gives the increase is minimal, you might as well just keep balancing your heat between 50-95 and get around the same every Wildfire than losing the Gauss Barrel, if they buffed it to 20% or so then you would probably see it being used more

it's only a decent gain if you have Hypercharge up like the old rotation so the 60s stabilizer doesnt really do anything
>>
>>384523559
The problem I have with MCH is that it's a clusterfuck of 60s cooldowns that you have to keep aligned at all times and then blow them all within the tiny 10s duration of Wildfire. If your latency is over 150 then you can't weave during Rapid Fire at all without clipping and so fitting everything into 10s Wildfire is impossible.

That's the shitter mentality. If other people are going to commit time to doing something then you owe it to them and yourself to play the best that you can.

Sort of. Fire IV and Blizz IV are faster now, so it's easier to pull off all six Fire IVs with umbral hearts rather than being stuck with just four per AF cycle. From what I hear BLM are a little closer to SAM now. I still wouldn't mind a small potency boost, though.
>>
>>384521039
I'm a shitter myself but parse anyway to see if I'm doing even more shitty than usual, or if I'm doing shittier than the other shitters in my DF party.
Usually spurs me into putting a bit more effort, especially if my co DPS is of the same job.

So are SCHs just supposed to delete Adlo and Succor or what? Seems like the only time they want you to use them is to deploy Adlo.

They had about as many pulls as the world first WoW guild did on the final boss. The difference is that there are no real gear gates in Omega Savage so you can beat it once you master the mechanics. That and it's not horribly buggy.

Why should it be attacked? MMO players are losers with no life that spend all of their free time playing MMOs. Is it the developer's fault that people play their MMO every waking moment and are thus overpowered as fuck for the content that the developer creates?

The mentality of MMO players makes them WANT to complete the content the developer creates as fast as possible because the MMO is all they care about, and yet they complain when they complete the content quickly because it causes them to reflect on how much of a failure they are and how much of their life they are wasting.

If MMO players were capable of exercising self-control, there would be no complaints. However, MMO players don't even know what exercise is, let alone self-control.

I'll tell you, fool.

Every Final Fantasy takes the raw concept of a given Final Fantasy trope and re-imagines it, re-defines it for the context of that game. Chocobos look different depending on the environments they can grow in. Moogles evolved differently, or in some games weren't able to live at all. Even things like Bombs get a tweaking to give them an entertaining twist. If it's all the same every time with exactly the same aesthetic, which part exactly is the "new" part of the game?

Kinda suck. Esp after they were building up this whole Bloodstorm angle with monks, and the Temple of Fist. A missed opportunity to give Lyse and her home more depth. In fact, the entire expansion felt like a waste of potential. We did everything too fast.

Grinding dungeons and farming legendaries, praying for BiS? Farming AP? Grinding your head into the gear-wall that is Mythic Kiljaeden (that Method had to class-stack for?)

FFXIV has a shit ton to do for if you play the game a few hours each day. Although I'm sure you're in one of the few groups that have cleared Neo Exdeath already.

In fact I'm sure you were part of the 5% that cleared all of Alexander Savage.

Because Yda was supposed to get reunited with the Scions, but she died in the Mhigger uprising that ultimately led to the Garlean occupation. Lyse, who survived, felt survivor's guilt and wanted Yda's legacy to live on, so she tried to pretend to be Yda.

MMO developers can't create content fast enough to outpace the rate at which MMO players can consume it.

MMO players need to fucking chill, yet they are unable to. Their complaints regarding content being completable too quickly deserve no sympathy or respect.

I mean, they could. They just put in harsh gear gates. FFXIV has taken a strong stand against gear gates in the past two raids now; if you're really so good you can do it all you can beat it in crafted, melded gear. Otherwise you can ride the gearing fence with your tomestones and raid drops.

I agree, since BLM is the caster version of SAM, or vice versa rather.

We're not a full group sadly or else we'd be done with O3S by now I think, along with doing higher damage with a constant NIN, and MNK or BRD. Still was a good feeling to see the BLM (who was a MCH beforehand, played BLM for fun) do well in a heavy movement based fight for O1S.

Mythic+ is maybe the only thing thats better.

The truth is, FF's endgame has you actually playing the game content a lot more than WoW does.

I can't tell you how much time I've spent waiting in stormwind for a specific group just to run mythics. I can't do old content, puggable content is easy and unrewarding, and patches are few and far between.

At least FF gets me playing the damn content to progress.

Artifact research made me wait.
Artifact Power made me grind boring shit.
Artifact appearances had me doing a grocery list of boring ass archaeology.

Fuck, even when I wanted to do a dungeon, I was told I had to get reputation first.
When I wanted to advance my order I had to do MONTHS of Order Advancement Research.

None of these things are putting me in groups, none of these things are letting my play my class in the context of the bigger game.

The fact that there's busywork to unlock fun content is garbage, and you HAVE to know that right? WoW wasn't like this before, it shouldn't be like this.

It's more that WoW wastes your time with the hours of just unironic waiting just to unlock a new tier. FFXIV wastes no one's time, there's almost no pointless busywork in regards to accessing dungeons, raids and also crafting/gathering (in 4.0, not 3.0). You spend the time, you get rewards.

The 1% elite beating a boss doesn't mean it's a easy fight by any means

They're right about sacred soil for the most part. There's a threshold you have to hit to make it worth it. Like 90% of fights it's a waste, but it isn't useless.

It doesn't matter how "creative" they are. Obsessive MMO players will always, ALWAYS complete new content absurdly fast and then bitch about how fast they were able to complete it. It couldn't have ANYTHING to do with them spending every waking moment of their lives playing the MMO and thus having absurdly high stats and absurdly high level gear, oh no. It's ALWAYS the developer's fault that THEY complete content too quickly.

You are exactly the type of player MMO developers should not listen to, because they will never win. You will never be satisfied. Fucking kill yourself you waste of life.

>>384535003
If Blizzard really wanted they could make you have to be in full mythic gear and remove TF before you're able to beat the raid. So technically you could gate it as such.

They won't since they're not idiots, but it's possible!

Wrong. Sacred Soil has to fight an uphill battle to mitigate a Lustrate's worth of healing. This doesn't happen in 90% of content. Eye for an eye being on the tank doesn't cut down on my stacks or GCDs used so it literally makes no difference.

Legion at launch has a raid with four difficult tiers. They added mythic+ for scaling dungeons, the ability to endlessly upgrade the XIV equivalent of a relic weapon, continued with pet battles, made world quests which are better and more important than fates which might as well be removed from the game, has actual PvP that isnt some weird standalone shit and multiple factions. Probably more I forgot. Im really honestly 100% disappointed in SB launch.

They should have had Uznair, POTD 2.0, Diadem 3.0, the first raid in both modes, and a faction ready at LAUNCH for people to do.

It's not about shitsockers it's about what clearing in a day means for the rest of the population. The first 2 encounters are puggable, most people with decent statics can finish probably this week or next week. Then they're effectively content capped for the next 3 months.

18 hour Pandemonium Warden attempt was done by quite possibly the best LS in the game at the time, geared to the teeth and with a shitload of relics.
PW spawned like 16 fuck you adds that could fuck you up easily and basically had to be kited so they wouldn't murder the alliance, and PW itself also cycled through every single boss that was present in the ToAU expansion originally.
If they kept pushing they maybe could've beaten PW in that attempt but it was more of a "We've been at this shit for 18 hours already, and we don't even know if the end is in sight?"

AV was basically an issue of it was too fucking strong, and the gimmick between the fight was basically impossible to do unless you were in Japan or using a bot. AV basically goes Super Saiyan and further Super Saiyan 3 and powers up mutliple times as his HP drops. And since you couldn't practically lock out his 2 Hour abilities, it let him basically just rape your alliance with Meteor/Comet, Chain Spell Aeroga 3 which did like 900 damage to everyone in range in a game where you had maybe 1200 HP if you weren't a tank and weren't a taru, or someone a bunch of superadd to buttfuck your alliance, heal completely to full while still retaining the Super Saiyan 3 buffs etc.

Tanaka or Sage Sundi or one of those fucks said the idea behind Pandemonium Warden was supposed to be something the whole server cooperated to take down and kill, NA, EU and JP groups all together or something.

If the top end is clearing in 1 day most decent groups will be done within a week or two and the 50%ile will probably finish within a month.

I really enjoyed pretty much everything about the game up until the end. Then it becomes an awful grind. When I experienced, first hand, just how awful Gathering and Crafting are handled, that was a real downer for me. Palace of the Dead is really cool to go through once but the requirements to get the weapons out of them are just fucking stupid. It should be one full run gets you the weapon for that job. Period. Just stop dicking me around and shit. In then end, you're endlessly doing the same daily and weekly content in order to stay caught up, but there's no point because that gear and those dungeons become obsolete once the next update launches. So really, I'm paying $12 for a couple of dungeons and a raid. No thanks. If there was no weekly lockout and if drop rates and currency rates were better, than I'd highly consider coming back. It's a great game but the artificial grind is really fucking stupid. I'll miss the story and the 24-man raids most of all, and I really want to try out the new PvP, but SquareEnix can fuck off with their MMO model.

If you hated the dungeons, you shouldn't have bought the expac or gotten any more invested.

I dont play MCH I believe though every class/class should be strong and it pains me to see when a playstyle is not doing what it should be doing .

>>
>>384540750
Absolutely no defining features that make them worth using over BRD or RDM. SAM completely shits over everything in the game in terms of both raw DPS and uptime so unless you genuinely enjoy MCH, there's no reason to even look in their general direction.

Because WAR is no longer like it was in HW so it's literally just a worse DRK at this point.
>>
>>384541112
Because prior to Savage DRK was more useful then WAR, so everyone leveled DRK. The patch helped them somewhat, but Blackest Night is more useful for progression then WAR DPS.

>>384541112
Blackest Night is fucking good, and most of the damage is magic, so DADM is good, and PLD can block magic now too. Along with Divine Veil+Intervention+Cover shit is cash.

>>384541182
They just have no idea how to balance MCH with BRD, BRD is a utility monster, while MCH seems to be intended to deal a lot of damage due to the lack of support, but they're just garbo. They've gotten fucking close with balance this time around though.

>>384541016
SMN DPS is really hard to calculate because of the way it gradually ramps up with your trance/bahamut. You'd have to take a total average over the course of like, five minutes to get a full representation. Either that or split it into different parts of a pie chart. At least 1/3 of their damage is 100% uptime because it's just DoT ticks and pet autos. Another 1/3 is pet autos while roused, tranced Ruin3/Ruin4, and then the last 1/3 is Bahamut impulse and fester, deathflare, akh morn burst.

Fucking autists feeling the need to yell out the name of the guy that pulled, like fuck off just fucking kill the thing, you found it. We dont have to wait on your tranny boyfriend to drag his ass over across the map that gest angry when its killed before he arrives

>theres literally nothing to keep you playing except for weekly lockouts
This is pretty true for those who only care about battle and that's it. But caring about getting glams, houses and other unique items is what makes the game so good for me. Feels nice. Sorry I blogged you

My nigga. It feels nice having interest in all of the aspects of the game because I always feel like there's something to do. Glamour is my endgame, and that can occupy me for a long ass time. If I get sick of playing dress up then I can craft, or dick around in the golden saucer, or decorate my house, or shit even explore parts of my map I haven't been to/try to find sightseeing locations. And then on top of all of that I have battle content. Feels real good.

To be fair, as a SAM no one mentions it either. You'd think I could get maybe a brief exclamation for embracing the way of the samurai from Gosetsu or someone, but no one mentions it at all.

HOLY SHIT THATS SICK

This, glamour hunting, crafting/gathering and other optional tasks are the true endgame.

Is there two versions of the Primal Sam weapons as it seems the built ones that can be bought on the auction are glowing and the earned ones dont?

Take me with you. The G' FC and the chucklefucks who hang around limsa and other shout hotspots are awful.

I wish it didn't have such a retarded sheath

I already do but this shit is annoying.

Two versions of every primal weapon, one that drops from the primal, and one that's crafted. Crafted ones always have the extra glow on them
>>
>>384543818
Side note, the chain quest to unlock them in the first place is fucking spiteful.
