Looking to start this game tonight with my girlfriend. Could someone give me a rundown on what I need and how not to embarrass myself? Do I need stormblood right away or can I pick it up when I'm a higher level?
>>
The free trial has no time limit and you can go up to lvl 35 which means you can fight Ifrit and Titan in their weakest most basic forms
Read your skills tool tips
Low level sucks like all mmos
Early story and 2.1-2.3 story is bland, it gets better when the Garleans get in full swing in ARR and in the lead up and through Heavensward
Don't be the cliche healer and tank couple that dont know how to play, dps is more fun anyway
Dragoon is for cucks

What are the least punishing jobs that aren't SAM or RDM? It's too stressful and detrimental to progression when you make one mistake as BLM and lose 500 dps

I'm thinking MNK or BRD

Don't worry until you at least finish the quest "The Ultimate Weapon". That's the earliest for when you can get Red Mage and Samurai unlocked.

>>385235034
>level all professions equally.
Maybe if you never have more than 300k gil because of your glamour addiction and/or is planning to level gatherers in the most autistic way possible.
Doing one by one is a lot easier and have a more efficient balance of time/leve/gil spent on it. Plus, having one class at 50 will give you access to moogle daily quests, so you will be able to level one class for free (no gil or leves) while you work on another one and let your leves recharge, and also access to recipes that you don't need to HQ to sell (so you can work in getting some cash for your next levespam adventure).
If you don't have money to invest on crafter leveling, it's better to not even bother with it. It's better to level a tank and get all rewards from playing it for a low but decent income.

DRK.
Not they removed all penalties from fucking up in this job, you also don't even have to "stance dance" like other tanks, you can have both your tank and your DPS stance activated at the same time.

I'd say PLD is easier. While DRK is way more forgiving now with no stance dancing and that Darkside can no longer fall off the lack of any hardly any resource management for PLD is smoother.

Any FSH could help me with something?
What does Narure's Bounty exactly?
I was under the assuption that it would give you more chance to get bigger species of fish which would screw around your chance to get smaller fish, but someone told me that it just give you a chance to have a fish with a big size, which is better for collectable, same with Patience 2.

Who's right?
>>
>>385233115

MNK is the most braindead easy job in the game, even easier than SAM, so go for that.
>>
>>385243170
That's not RDM
>>
>>385236819
>>385237665
Why do people keep saying this? DRK dropping Grit is basically the same amount of effort as changing stances as the other two tanks, and all DRKs should be dropping Grit once they get a lead on enmity just like the others. Their rotation is simpler sure, but its not got to do with stance dancing.
>>
>>385244183
DRK's Grit gets far more benefits than other tank stances (more MP on Syphon Strike, HP drain on Souleater, more damage on Bloodspiller, no damage debuff if you keep Darkside on).
>>
>>385244959
But surely it doesnt even out.
>>
>>385233115
While SAM is very 'forgiving' with mistakes, it also has the highest skill ceilling in the game, so unless you're playing it properly, you're useless.
>>

A SAM playing poorly still out parses most jobs at their best.

DEX RDM.png
692KB, 1024x1239px
Finally got ACT and FFlogs uploader to work this week and decided to put my STR melding of RDM to the test:

First, some background: For people new to this theorycraft, it stems from here that a RDM with a STR melding will deal high damage. Parses on a dummy revealed that the average DPS for someone without STR melds is 50, whereas a DPS with someone with STR melds is approximately 121. How does this reflect in raid dps?

This isn't my perfect run, but I cleared O2S and I can start to see actual numbers

https://www.fflogs.com/reports/g1MYJnX9Rrmwdpc2#fight=9

The top samurai in our party (melee dps) successfully executed 225 auto attacks leading to 400,000 damage.

I managed to execute 113 auto attacks leading to 47,000 raid damage throughout the raid.
On the other hand, the other Red Mage in the party without STR Meld executed 91 auto attacks leading to 7,800 raid damage

In other words, my stats JUST from materia melding increase my raise damage by ~40,000 points.

I can improve this further by finding more ways to squeeze auto attacks, but we're seeing some EXTREMELY significant numbers here, and of course there's only higher numbers to go from here. I don't have the best rotation, but I aim to improve it.

I think this log shows hard numbers and shows there is indeed potential for STR Melding in red mages that know how to optimize autoattack management.

They refer to the raid Omega. The current tier is Deltascape, and each encounter is V1, V2, V3, and V4. People haven't 100 decided yet so those are what people have been calling them. The bottom 2 are shitposts based on the Heavensward and ARR high end raids, which are Alexander and Binding Coil of Bahamut, Turn X.

We're now getting less dungeons to make room for more experimental shit like Verminion and Diadem.

Why would you want more dungeons over experimental shit though for real. Every dungeon that's introduced outside of the MSQ is pretty much shoehorned in as hard as possible, with the mechanics and fights themselves needing to be babied to the lowest common denominator. PotD/Diadem/Feast/Aquapolis captured the general interest of the population for much longer than 1-2 more dungeons and that's why they're focusing on that.

Because it's not so they can release more (other content), it's so they get to release less content overall.

They have until 4.1 to release new experimental shit in order to even keep up with the pace that HW had for it (3.1 is when both Diadem AND LoV were released). So in theory either we're getting it earlier, or we're getting more of it.

My guess is it will be neither.

You know how you know Alexander was objectively crap as a whole? because is when the subs when from almost 3.1mil active players coming out of ARR to less than 300k subs by the time A12 came out.

Yet babies that started in HW will tell you otherwise, hell a lot of HW babies are disgusted by the format Omega is taking, 3 fights in and you already want to quit.

Also anti bump for shiling this already diying game, I never seeing a MMO empty so quickly after release, they just want to take your $50's guys, don't give in, is crap.
>>
>>385244959
the 20% damage down cancels out the bloodspiller extra damage. It makes it about the same in or out of grit with dark arts.
>>
>>385262171

No, a crafter should be able to buy items off the marketplace to craft a finished product and still make a profit.

The whole bots thing is simply because SE doesn't care to stop them. In their defense, I don't know of any large MMO that was able to stop them, either.

It sucks until you have blizzard 3 and fire 3. Those are the key skills of a Blm and the only thing that stays the same at 70. Both of those skills automatically max your AF or UI to 3 and if used in the opposite state like blizzard 3 in af3 the cast time is really short making blm more dynamic but the class to me got REALLY fun when I got ley lines which is imo tied for best caster cd with presence of mind.

You are looking at the numbers wrong.

10% of the player base raids constantly, while 31% attempts to raid, Coil served its purpose on keeping interest and attention even on players that were not doing the content.

Another example I can give you is how the Raiding community had to move to other servers to keep it alive, Excalibur became a dry apple when the second round of Alexander came around, the main raiding server, that just sad.

I get most of my comms tanking, but then again, I actually fucking talk during dungeons and that seems to make you much more noticed than silent stoic tank #2509719051 speedrunning shit. I open with a hi, maybe comment on what's going on, explain shit if someone seems unclear.

Of course, I call out repeated stupidity too. People not watching Shinryu video, then ignoring my explanations on top of that not once, not twice, but 5 fucking attempts in a row and keep falling off the platform every single time. I said, "How some of you even managed to hit 70 in the first place, I'll never know" - Got called an asshole by the BRD (who fell off the platform immediately afterward, and then twice more after that), and 0 comms after the run finishes successfully. Not surprised, but hey, you can call me an asshole all you want when you're not facedown for 80% of the fight. Until then, kindly shut the fuck up and listen to what people try to tell you so you don't look as stupid.

60-70 kind of makes up for 50-60 being lackluster.

I'm actually kind of worried for the 5.0 job quests since 4.0 has been "let's bring back all the peeps from the earlier class quests and shenanigans" which is great now, but they can't really play that card to the same effect again.

Also for 70 ALC is F'halmin's husbando actually alive, I saw that one dude stand outside of the crypt when we were melting Heartstrike but I didn't see him before in any of the other quests so confuzzled.

If you're talking prog with an actual static, sure and even so O4s will usually have SCH/AST a chunk below when paired with WHM. But since we're talking minimal effort to get picked for a raid group, SCH/AST are both roles that can pretty much leave most things up to the WHM because WHM no longer requires as much support with their MP fixes and Refresh/Mana Shift. All SCH/AST has to do is complement aoe heals, in NocT AST's case just spamming Aspected Helios gets you a silver star and lets you survive stuff that kills people with zero vit melds.

I mean, it's not like tanks will ever get any interesting mechanics in every MMO ever. You want to do mechanics, you go dps/healer. Same as usual. Giving a gold star to tanks just so they can feel useful doing a baby mechanic is w/e.

Oh please, I started just before 2.1. And even so, doesn't change the fact that people have beaten BCoB in like i50. People got better while you're preening your achievement of a raid tier 3 years ago as if you're relevant at all. Also, it wasn't a nerf if it fixed Twister, considering that's the only challenging part of the fight depending on how you deal with snakes.

I guess we can theorycraft how it would 'work' without bots all day, because there's not a single MMO example of an economy without botting.

It's the healers then. Everything goes really well when he was swapping to me. That would explain a lot, since I caught one of the healers not jumping across the gap for his levinbolt.

Alright, I guess I'll just go into a clear party next time, since I feel like I have a pretty good grasp on the mechanics. How exactly does the thundercloud work though?

the thundercloud spawns in a random location on the field and targets a random player. if you get targeted by it, the idea is to stand away from the group and make sure the cloud is not lined up with the boss+group. so if the cloud is north or south, move northwest or southeastish. if you stand still you kill everyone

She is born abanian, ruled a garlean leader residing in Ala Mhigo. Even though she was born and raised under garlean ruule, she was not raised as a true garlean and of course not considered one by that nation. She was to the garleans a eorzean/mhigan savage.

You didn't, because someone born under a Garlean flag is Garlean. Their family just needs to earn proper citizenship first with military service. The 'rem' in her name signifies that she's the commander of a cohort. A GARLEAN title that signifies her as the commander of a GARLEAN unit. She was earning her place in her society.
>>
>>385270320
rem: Tribunus Militum. Primus pilus, commander of a legion's first cohort. Pilus prior, commander of remaining cohorts.

It's a military rank. She's a commander of the Lupis rank, which Zenos gave her the rank after the leader fucked up and he slayed him, promoting her immediately after. Pay attention.

Gaius gave it to her, which was controversial, Zenos had her prove her worth to begin with because of the general doubt and then promoted her afterwards when he cut somebody up.

How deluded do you have to be to actually believe this. People are so desperate for depth in this story they'll go to insane lengths of mental gymnastics to interpret the empire as good guys/morally grey.

The entire point of Fordola as a character is to show how the empire are assholes. No matter how loyally you serve them, they will still treat you like trash if you are not pureborn Garlean. "Service guarantees citizenship, but citizenship guarantees naught." Fordola hated the Garleans, hated the empire and what they made her do. But she doesn't feel she has a choice, opposing them is futile, serving them is the only path to a better life. But no matter what she does, they still shit on her.

>B-but Gaius! He was a good guy! He just wanted to unite Eorzea! He stopped production of this chemical weapon! He cares!
Gaius cares about power and that's it. He does not spare Eorzeans because he sees them as inherently worth saving. He wants to rule and exploit them as subjects of the Empire. And the residents of Gyr Abania make it pretty clear what that is like. Most of the Imperial occupation is under Gaius' rule, but that doesn't make it any more pleasant. They still get conscripted to go and die, they still get beaten, raped and killed by imperials just for fun. There is no benefit to Garlean rule for these people, they are treated like subhumans.

Not that I expect a Gaiusfag to understand any of this. 4chan is full of edgy teens who unironically support fascism, genocide, slavery, eugenics, and generally anything which promotes human suffering. It would be asking too much for them to understand a simplistic black and white fantasy story.

If a savage wants to serve the empire, why refuse them? Even if Gaius himself eventually treats them with some measure of respect (after having them slaughter hundreds of their own countrymen), he is just one man. Fordola being a commander afforded her or her men no special privileges except maybe avoiding constant rape. They were still nothing more than trained attack dogs.

Maybe if you didn't rely on guide videos for dungeon mechanics, you'd realize it's always been the same mechanics for years now and there is nothing new to learn. You might actually gain the ability to recognize things for yourself.
>>
>>385274056
>complain because they look up the mechanics
People are complaining because you are looking up mechanics from a faulty source
Even threads like these are better than her guides for learning what to do

But I don't. I just like to know what's coming and have never personally had an issue, and I recognize all the reused shit like the "stand in these circle" pillars, the stack-up marker, etc. I never have a problem, but many groups I end up with seem to.

I would still like to know where she's been wrong on mechanics and examples of her fuckuppery, just so I know how unreliable she can be. But in my experience it's been "good enough" to be a warning, not necessarily a "follow this shit to a T" guide.

How fucking retarded are you? Shitters can clear dungeons and players with half a brain can clear story trials. A practice group for those is silly, but you'd get it done in maybe a few wipes if we talk story trials. Almost no wipes for dungeons.

Seriously. You're one hell of a terrible player if you need guides for those, or simply a fucking retard if you "don't want to offend somebody by neing new to the shit-as-fuck-easy content". Is this what XIV does to people? FUCK!

Especially since most sb bosses have unpredictable minibusters which make it excruciatingly easy to fuck up blackest night timing

Healers can bring 2k dps easy, but only if they have to spend less time jamming their spells up your ass.

Don't even try to fucking tell me the 20% extra dps from dropping your tank stance is worth cutting your healer's dps in half.

Name drop on degenerate /vg/ poster from zr that didn't leave 2 years ago.

So when exactly would I use the Rook Overload, if its potency is basically the same as just leaving it up? During Overheat, does the damage boost actually affect it? Or is it more for when a phase change is going to happen?

When the boss is about to go untargetable.

Turret isn't affected by any buffs on the MCH, its affected only by the MCH's raw stats. It doesn't count towards Wildfire damage either. Something like a DEX potion however would buff the turret, and vuln debuffs on the enemy such as Trick Attack and Foe's Requiem also increase its damage.
