have that really nice guy
who is super quiet
and always does what you say sort of
like if you tell him to practice seph ex for 3 hours he will
failing each time
and then you raid with him in your static
and he's just derping every time, no matter what
and you want to kick him but you feel so bad because he's so nice
not even nice, just he never causes issues and is just kinda like a big stupid oaf

What's the least mage-like armor a healer can equip? eg. Something like that FFXI Naginata-wielding chick's gear.

I ask because I'm trying to do some psychological warfare in PvP. My character is already a max height/muscle male Highlander and I'm looking to make people think I'm a DPS at first-glance.

Serious question.

Why can't ASTs get interrupted in the feast? I was on them and harassing them constantly and they were still able to get off heals like that. With SCHs I have no issues interrupting their casting. With WHMs I sometimes interrupt or I don't. ASTs however, no matter what I do, I can't interrupt their casting.

Why are such beast in feast?

So whether or not you actually roleplay, has anyone else made a backstory for their character aside "Warrior of Light"?

My character's a warrior-monk that left Doma in pursuit of further learning. I don't roleplay, I just go around places thinking of how my character reacts.

>>135150419
It's the comfiest.

Low level gameplay, especially on lancer, is mindnumbingly boring though, but I think it's worth sticking to it. Dragoon gets way more fun between 30 and 50.

>>135150547
Thats called roleplaying. You don't need to /em mile-long paragraphs and jerk off over obnoxious, superfluous word choices fresh out of a thesaurus to roleplay regardless of what the retards who have taken over the community in the past few years might say.

>>135150608
i dunno, i dont really like to actively RP, but i like thinking about my character as a person. i guess it's almost RP? like one player rp or something i guess

>>135150547
If I did, probably a generic lance for hire.

>>135150674
You will as long as you purchase from the same version you have a trial on. So a Steam trial has to become a Steam version and a Square trial has to become a Square version. I don't really get why but there's probably a good reason.

Other than that it's pretty straight forward and even that most likely isn't worth mentioning. I only bring it up because I fucked myself by purchasing it off Steam on sale after playing the trial on Steam and had to start fresh.

I've learned firsthand that this is a mistake because they are always total weebs.

PLD, BLM, SMN, and AST are the worst team you could ever be up against in 4 vs 4 feast. Maybe substitute WHM in there as well with repose spamming that you can never build up an immunity against.

Have people been vocal about balance on the forums? Will Yoshida make healers be in perma Clerics stance? Will you actually build up resistance to Sleep/Repose spammage?

Don't play these games with me! I will make an alt right now. Is their a race/gender that increases my snuggling odds? please don't say lala or c@boi. I love lalas but I can't play one.

>>135152193
I don't even know what a Japanese cat girl is, I just play female Mi'qote because I like playing girls and I like cats. So it's a pretty logical choice to enjoy being/looking at a catgirl. I like Japanese music and stuff if thats what you mean, but I don't shove my interests down others throat. Unless they are trying to get into raiding and need a wake up call.

Not at all

figured as much. i'll just drop surecast or some shit in that last slot til i decide to get it.


thanks anon

So is night time when all the shitters get on Feast? 5 losses in a row due to DPS being shit. I had a MNK deal only 30k in total damage while the other teams DPS were in the 70ks. Our BLM only did 11k in damage and just wouldn't sleep their healer so we could focus down their SMN.

Not your blog and yadda yadda, but I'm upset that people can't listen and focus.

>>135152531
ne sure to stoneskin that tank buster xD

>>135152479
Nice if you precast it (to land on the tank right as the last enemy in a given trashpull dies) and follow up with a Nocturnal Benefic, because it creates a massive HP buffer for DPSing.
It's by no means essential though.

>>135152303
I have no issue with Miqo'te. I don't expect everyone to regard lore either. But fuck Japanese catgirls. Catboys too, actually.

They gather in roaming packs. There must be a linkshell for them I'm unfamiliar with. They have names like Sakura and Tsukasa and shit and multicoloured hair and never seem to type well.

Today I saw a pack in Limsa. Three had black and red hair. I didn't stay to know them but I saw one type out something along the lines of, "Remember, I'm a vampire and I'm sucking your blood."

COME ON.

Harmless really, but I have a stick up my butt.

>>135152571
It's pvp, expect after long enough your win rate to fall to about 54-60% depending on how good you are, if you're exceptional maybe somewhere in low mid 60s.
>>135152331
I think everyone deserves snuggles once in a while. For me it's more just be kind to others and good things come. Personally I prefer female non lala. Lalas just all upset me from the story.

How long does the average Feast game last ? Trying to figure out if this last bit of Eso I need will go faster from Expert dungeon runs, or Feast runs.

>>135152571
nah, I was at an ~80% win ratio when I started, only at 56% now. eventually shit evens out pretty well, like >>135152661 said if you're hitting 60-65%, you're doing pretty damn well for yourself. It's hard to carry 8v8

25 matches in 4 vs 4. I only have 8 victories. When it was first released I thought I was doing good. I'm a tank who usually harass the healers, and switch to a DPS being focused down. 10 matches later tonight has been loss after loss because either my DPS weren't up to par, were going off soloing, breaking line of sight from our healer, and the usual not burst focusing down a DPS when their healer was slept. Granted I made some mistakes too as a tank, but honestly when your teams DPS is much smaller than the opposing teams DPS is disheartening. When I thought having an AST and SMN on my team would guarantee me victory, only ended up in loss as their WHM would infinitely repose me while their BLM proceeded to sleep everyone because no one focus them down.

Will I ever be able to get out of this rut and start winning? Will I ever obtain a Fenrir pup? I just want to level up my PVP rank & to obtain more Medals. Please give me some advice to better lead my team mates to victory instead of defeat.

Please give me encouragement.

>blaming bad luck and teammates on your losses
that's a self-destructive mindset that only lowers your future chances of winning. If you lose a match cause your teammates were retarded then don't mind it too much. Instead, focus on how you played, reflect and learn what to do / what not to do in certain situations etc.

also i have found it very very helpful to communicate to your team before the match starts regarding the opening salvo

>>135152734

>>135153243

mark targets

after the enemy team picks up kits at the start, remind your dps who to go on

and most importantly: git gud

>>135152591

That, and stuff like stoneskinning people with weakness/bod for some of the aoe damage heavy parts of a6s, stoneskinning the tank who is taking the mines in a6s as well, stoneskinning prey target in a5s so there is no damage down debuff etc.

>>135153117
Like one person said already, communication is key. Prevent stupid base dives call when to back off for buffs or adrenaline. You can't help a healer who dies from just a tank or single dps hitting them. But you can just do as much as you can to not be negative and focus on your game.

I similarly when I barely hit bronze was at like 77% win rate as a DRG, then insane losses until 54% win rate. Now I'm winning more again. Those loss streaks happen just like win streaks do. It'll balance out and if you're a positive impact you'll ultimately move up.

Oh believe me I do. Here's an example.
"Hey guys I see they have a WHM, MNK, SMN, and WAR. I'll focus on the WHM while you focus down the SMN. I'll help out too when it comes to give them the final push"
>Martch starts
>Every DPS for what ever reason is off soloing another DPS. I even mark the SMN as 1 and WHM as 2.
>DPS is ignoring the SMN. Meanwhile I'm getting reposed along with the healer and their DPS actually focus down my DPS.
>"LOL HEALER WTF HEAL YOU SHITTER" says one DPS. The other DPS just decides to chase another and dies
>"Wow guys this healer sucks. Do your job"

It's just as >>135153289 described it.


I'm just starting to believe that people are just being shit on purpose just for Lore/Esos.

>>135153378
Believe me I communicate. The issue is that they don't bother to listen and just do their own thing. There were times where they actually listened yet we till got a loss but I wasn't even mad because it was a close match. When they listen it's always a close match. When they don't its a guaranteed loss.

Then I had people be babies and then not care anymore and just sit back at camp.The Feast really brings out the bad side in people.

In fact I play dps because I can just turn off my brain and do well

>>135154921
no I play war/nin
I don't have an opinion on difficulty, I think all three roles are about equal

>>135154792
Make sure your weapon is the highest it can be for your current level.

Set up a way with your hotbars or whatever to easily and quickly mark targets on the go. A lot of people shit on marking targets, but as a low level tank, it'll also help you keep track of which targets you're dumping the most enmity onto.

Low level DRK, I found myself unleashing once or twice, and then cycling my aggro combo around on the mobs. Like, if there were three targets, I would hit 1 and 2 on the first target, then drop 3 on the 3rd target. And just sort of rotate that.

I don't know, it worked for me.

>>135154792
Make sure your gear is up to date.

Unleash twice then threat rotation.

Focus the DPS' target. DPS players are fucking retards so you have to accommodate them. If every DPS is on a different target, they will be, add an extra Unleash then rotate your rotation.

Use your fucking damage cool down.

Level gladiator for provoke.

When you get good you can try more shit but for now just use your fucking threat rotation. I see stupid paladin using their MP rotation all the fucking time.

>>135155219
I have no clue how you did it, anon
At that lvl drk shouldn't have any problems with aggro

>>135154792
Slot flash for early levels if you're having problems with enmity in AOE, its got a higher multiplier than unleash, although it won't do any damage of course.

>>135155219
Remember the most important thing about tanking.

It is a PvP role. You are not playing against the mobs, you are watching your party and fixing all their screw ups. You will find yourself tanking without a healer, and learning to hold aggro in DPS stance to compensate for your team. You will do mechanics because the dragoon won't.

>>135154741
That actually remidns me, do you get better actual stats if you use real i150 items, or the same as if you were using i210+?

>>135155219
above all else, tankbro, i have one ultimate piece of advice:

persevere

It's a crafting RNG makes you fail all your touches and NQ with all HQ mats episode.

for the ilvl 205 pvp gear, i don't have to meld it if i wanna use it in ranked solo queue right?

it says on the DF entry: "During PVP, materia bonuses are also ignored."

i know this is a really retarded question but justed wanted to clarify

>>135154717
>not capping my red scrips for months

Sounds like you fucked yourself over.

>>135155534
all materia is disabled in pvp yes
the only itemization there really is in pvp is accuracy is barely needed, so you can basically stack any gear above the level sync with your preferred stats and run with low accuracy
the only time accuracy really benefits you in pvp is if someone uses featherfoot or puts a blind on you

>>135155534
yes, morale is placedo and materia is useless.

mch was already a little better than bard single target in 3.0-3.1 but every fight in gordias had a fair bit of multidotting and things that simultaneously benefit bard but harm mch's dps

the closest fight between the two was a3s and even then, split hands are great for bard, add phase fucks mch while benefiting bard, and the hand add in last phase does the same and it's even more tilted if your group made you lb

PvP gear doesn't matter. Morale is useless since everything gets synced to 150, and materia is ignored.

Just pick gear with good secondaries (ie you don't need a ton of accuracy), and queue up. 8v8 is p casual.

>you don't have to quest and there are multiple ways to level up
fucking 10/10 where has this been the last 3 years

also is the guild on Ultros alive?

and can trial players join guilds?

>>135159072
S.K

>>135159254
no, yes

>>135159254
You have to quest, many features are locked behind quests.

>>135159245
Who are they then? Bet you don't even guess one right.

>>135159072
M.L

>>135159254
wait there are other /vg/ people on ultros? since when?!

>>135159319
Ultros was the official /vg/ server at launch, with the beta server being Cactuar.

>>135159254
>He thinks you don't have to quest
>The entire main story quest gates nearly all of the content

>>135159301
oh that sucks and neat

>>135159303
from the pastabin I read that I have to do msq/class is there other key features locked behind sides?

>>135159319
I'm a completely newfriend to FFXIV and Ultros is a qt tentacle monster

>>135159389
by questing I mean't just sides I'm doing msq/class

>>135159381
Well then. I learned something new today.

>>135159254
>you don't have to quest
Yes you do.
>and there are multiple ways to level up
No one does fates anymore and leves are trash. Enjoy your DF wait queue.

>>135159254
wait till you get to level 50 MSQ lmao

>>135159457
>Ultros is a qt tentacle monster

He's alright. Kind of a dork in this game.

>>135159457
Nope, only MSQ and Class quests are required. My zones are covered in side quests that I never did and will never do.

>>135159507
>don't have to do a million side quests
Not even this is correct because MSQ alone won't even nearly give you enough experience to hit 50, let alone 60. God fucking help you once you hit Churning Mists.If I was ever faced with the moogle hoard ever again I would tear out my throat with my own hands before accepting one more quest.

>>135159470
What world is actually alive with /vg/ people that actually do things?

>>135159590
how so?

>>135159590
>Yet another avatarring cat

>>135159628
>he actually did the moogle quests instead of sohm al/aery

>>135159590
show butt

>>135159667
He's involved in a side quest chain at level 50. He's more or less a jobber/comedic relief, but not unenjoyable.

>>135159687
Yes, hello. Is it an "implying the obvious" episode?

>>135159687
>he's still crying about screenshots two years into the game

would have done this one but metallic dye is a sign of mental illness

>>135159024

ugly face

>>135159667
Balmung and Gilgamesh are the most populated servers and also have sizable /vg/ communities. But you'll have to shell out shekels to transfer onto them because getting onto them the normal way is next to impossible.
