the gshade meltdown was pretty funny
why weren't players using reshade already?
Gshade was a repack of Reshade where you just dropped in and ran with it. I did find Reshade to take a bit longer, like 1-2 seconds, to load a new shader.
It'll happen one of these days, but there's always textools to fall back on at least modding wise. I'd fricking hate to return to that though. I expect mare to be something that nukes itself. More like with penumbra or dalamund is some ostentatious trans rights are human rights in your face thing.
We switch it to the 1 minute meta in 7.0
Please look forward to it
>7.0 adding buttons
hehe, haha
3 minute meta
What exactly is the problem with the 2 minute meta again? You homosexuals are all just parroting the same shit over and over again.
Them fricking up several jobs has nothing to do with 120s cooldowns.
Bosses aren't build arround it either.
This moron doesn't even know the meta was 3 minutes before.
These people don't actually play the game, they just want to share their cheap coombait made with tools created by insane trannies.
Crit RNG under all the buffs fricking up multi-dps checks for ultimates with short phases
Honestly the problem is more with crit than buffs
Yeah, but it also had 60, 90 and 120s, gay, 7.0 is going to only have 180s
Literally every class still has 90s and 60s moron.
No it wouldn't
>No it wouldn't
It's getting harder and harder for Ravahn to decrypt the changes made each patch. If the devs wanted to make it impossible to use, they could.
7.0 moron
BLM doesn't
BLM is the dev's pet job with a good rotation at every level range that only gets better with every fricking expansion. Don't bring that shit in
>with a good rotation at every level range
It sucks ass prior to 70
So why can't they do the same but for the rest of the jobs? BLM is probably the only unique job right now.

I used to play DRK in HW and SB.
I will never forgive what they did.
Why the frick they removed all the cool shit? If something bothers you you don't have to fricking delete it. Change a cool skill, make it different but so not FRICKING remove it.
Back in HW 70% of tank players played PLD, so they chose to make DRK boring like PLD to appeal to those players.
Yeah it does, all of BLM's CDs are 30s, 60s, or 120s.
TC and swift aren't really the same kind of cds as mug are, Polyglot is sort of but all three are more balanced around the jobs design rather than say the gauges in Reaper which do not have a material effect on your uptime. BLMs does have tools at 60s (and 30 if you count polyglot) but they are utilized around the fight. What I'm thinking of is more like Amplifier and Leylines, things you hold for 2min burst. BLMs other stuff isn't "burst at 30s or 60s liek say gunbreakers hypervelocity or something
>TC and swift aren't really the same kind of cds as mug are
No, they're the same kind of CD as Bunshin, Trick Attack, or TCJ though.
>What I'm thinking of is more like Amplifier and Leylines
You mean those 2 minute burst CDs designed to line up with 2m buff windows every time?
> BLMs other stuff isn't "burst at 30s or 60s liek say gunbreakers hypervelocity or something
All of BLM's stuff is "burst at 30s/60s/120s" because all of its CDs are 30s/60s/2m
You're always doing two TCs and swift and leylines and amplifier in the 2m window and one TC/swift outside it, no different from SAM or RPR or MCH
most of the whining you see is done by people who don't play the game or people who only run dungeons and afk in town, it's painfully obvious whenever someone talks about DRK and you get a horde of angry people screaming about it needing buffs because it's not able to solo dungeons like WAR
>What exactly is the problem with the 2 minute meta again?
Because it's boring. You no longer have to pay attention to party composition. You no longer have to look out for things like Trick Attack or Chain Strategem. Jobs even used to have different openers depending on party composition. All of that is gone, fights are much more boring with this approach + giant boss hitboxes.
I've never strictly had to pay attention to party composition in this game unless it was overtuned bullshit like Gordias release, or when PF was dick-riding a speedrun meta like during Stormblood. This is a game where I can play like a moron just fine and not overly inconvenience my whole party or alliance.
I don't know what's actually changed for you people that jobs with a 120s buff timer are unconscionable because holy shit most jobs have not actually changed that much in years.
>I've never strictly had to pay attention to party composition in this game unless when I had to
Yeah, okay, pal.
Engage with the entire post and not the part of it that lets you keep doing your Chuck E. Cheese animatronic Homogenization Hoedown.
>Engage with the blah blah blah
2min meta is boring and less complex than before
>This is a game where I can play like a moron just fine and not overly inconvenience my whole party or alliance.
The 2 minute burst window makes it worse to play like a moron though because one mistimed buff fricks the entire party up for the rest of the encounter
Not a problem unless you're playing min-ilvl Savage or an Ultimate.
meant Brotherhood (90s) *** instead of Chain Strategem
The giant hitboxes need to go, you can't have suped up melee potencies AND have them get 100% uptime
t. DNC
ranged have been ruining the show too long, frick those trannies, they deserve to do less
Even with the huge hitboxes there are still uptime strats in every fight, even the fricking tree.
keep seething. positionals will also be removed next expansion and it will make everyone seethe, cant wait for it.
t. played since HW and think positionals are outdated
What's with ranged sissies and this moronic complain? Even back in HW melee dps only ever lost uptime when they had to run to a wall.
Making the hitboxes bigger literally didn't change a single thing for them, they will still only lose uptime when they have to move to the wall.
Fights are also designed around the lines on the ground, not hitboxes.
You always see them cringe at how much bigger TOP Omega is, but melees will still lose uptime when they need to move to the wall.
I'll give you a real answer from someone that has watched the game degrade since the beginning
XIVs vertical expansions and button bloat have caused developers to constantly cut buttons from classes to make room for new buttons. This has caused them to constantly cut out niche buttons and systems that make a class unique in order to streamline class balance and fight design while also releasing new skills. Take a class like NIN. in 3.0 it had 2 dots (Both with different combos and timers), a debuff to put up (That interacted with other classes to change how you would play it depending) as well as multiple utility options to assist the party. Compare this to now, where ninja only hits aeolian edge outside of its 60s window where now all of the buttons it has acquired over the years is jammed into a 2m window because pooling resources for damage buffs is how the game is centered around. The class works well, but is streamlined to death where you do absolutely nothing with it outside of the funny flashy buttons. It also means optimization of the class is entirely macro dependent on where your party is going to buff rather than more micro optimizations.
Basically it just ruined skill expression in a really negative way

Goddamnit I saw this coming like 5 years ago.
I quit XIV after Heavensward because of all the ability pruning and homogenization. I fricking knew that I've already seen this happen somehwere: in WoW.
They are doing the exact same mistakes as WoW did with class and raid design. It feels shit to lose another MMO for the same cancerous design.
>Bosses aren't build around it either.
They are absolutely build around it.
Yes, if you count it as intentional that 120s almost always get off cooldown at the worst of times, sure.
>Yes, if you count it as intentional that 120s almost always get off cooldown at the worst of times, sure.
this, but unironically. every 2min theres a difficult mechanic that you have to master
absolute shitters in this thread. its wild
Literally all the extremes right now align exactly and dont jump off at 120sec.
Rubicante summons worthless adds midfight that literally do nothing but wait for buffs to align when they die.
Both him and Barb dont go invul anymore when phase changes.

>i dont play the game, so i dont have examples to back up my moronic point
Concession accepted
Yeah so great when your timers align while running arround with Minotaur tethers, literally the best time for burst damage, maybe you should play the fricking game fricking moron.
Buffs go out before everyone has split up, so you're right, its perfectly fine.
Well Big Bard does the first time she Juri Han's you
>Bosses aren't build arround it either.
Tell that to the current Ult where there's a hard DPS check every single time the 2min window hits.
Because it forces classes to take on extremely similar play styles, resulting in classes just not feeling different. This might not matter at all in highend content where output is all that matters, but mid and casual content that players play for fun and enjoyment, it gets stale really quickly. EW probably has the worst class flavour the game ever had, so bad that I don't even feel excited for new classes since they will be a recolour of shit we already have. SGE and RPR brought nothing new to the table.
>force 2 minute meta
>most jobs can't even delay their 2 minutes without ruining the rest of the fight
>keep putting forced downtime and mechanics that force the party to split up to opposite ends of the arena during these 2 minutes
it's just obnoxious to play around
So literally just go back to the trick attack meta?
you dont. stop being a Black person whos bad at math and mechanics
but raid trannies and casual shitters alike hate the 2 minute meta
what's your point?
nah, ur being obtuse. throwing out random buffs and not stacking them has never been the meta

out of all the 1000s of seethe posts about the 2min meta across the internet, not a single one has suggested an alternative. not even like a better alternative, just a simple alternate that isnt the 2min meta
people who complain about the 2min meta are just trolling
I've suggested an alternative multiple times. Frick party damage buffs entirely, make every class a selfish DPS that operates entirely on their own timetables. There's no real difference now that everyone just pumps and dumps at the same time anyway; it isn't "coordination" when everyone is just doing the same shit at the same time every time.
>get rid of buffs
>no one coordinates them
yea ur trolling, nice try tho
Now that you don't have to hold anything and everyone's shit all operates on the exact same timers no, no one is coordinating shit. When everything's on the exact same timer there's no skill involved with dumping it all whenever it comes off cooldown, you don't have to wait for this or that buff to come up because you know it's all gonna be there at the same time as your shit so it doesn't matter.
i wasn't really coordinating anything before either, set a timer for three minutes instead of t wo
You do not play at a high level, you absolutely need to coordinate, not every fight just lets you mash shit on cd and it be fine
Manifold Flames is a perfect example

Seems like on phones all the OTP system is is a passthrough to the existing Square Enix OTP system, I see no reason for concern with it
You can look through the launcher's code on Github yourself and see they don't do anything with your IGN/pass even if you set it to save and auto login, it encrypts your deets and wiretapping yourself with Wireshark shows XIVLauncher doesn't send any packets anywhere that it shouldn't, it runs the game and Dalamud + related plugins and absolutely nothing else
Tl;dr skill issue
sure, for now. until a troony dev gets slightly upset
I've been using this software since Stormblood. Two more weeks bros! troony meltdown! Trust the plan! Any day now!
automatically adding the 'you died" plugin for everyone without any kind of permission, because its funny. when there are sync plugins that use the file explorer to change your files is somehow perfectly okay, because you used it since stormblood.
>automatically adding the 'you died" plugin
Acting like that's anywhere near the same level of malice as restarting your computer is more than enough for me to not take you seriously
sonar is not open source. they already shown they can auto load plugins without permissions. what's stopping them from loading proprietary plugins on start? you being emotionally attached to your cheats?
you make up more nightmare scenarios for yourself than a republican senator, learn what open source is you fricking moron, gshade being open is where people saw the dev putting malware in
again, what's stopping them from autoloading non open source plugins?
begging for an argument about a false premise is reddit shit
what's stopping them from autoloading sonar?

I admit PLD wasn't the most enjoyable job in HW, but making a job that relies on blocking damage have to cast, which makes you unable to block, was the stupidest shit ever.
I agree though that NIN and BLM are the only jobs that actually got better with evey expansion.
Oh and I can't really agree on WHM. Cleric Stance was a cool mechanic.

You do realize class complexity doesnt equal clunkiness, right? Its not hypocritical to want to optimize your class but in an actual fun way. Spreadsheet paladin was not fun optimization to a lot of people but thats not the same as actually having shit to do outside of your minute window bursts. Give classes dots back and stop with the resource pooling
>Its not hypocritical to want to optimize your class but in an actual fun way.
Yes, and both paladin rotations were/are not it. Pressing a different 3 every X amount of time is meaningless, same with Warrior. You'd argue for managing Atonement stacks and Holy Spirit with it, but oh wait you can't because you're restricted by Blade of Valor DoT limitation and FoF buff window :^)
Having the freedom that PLD currently has right now, but without any meaningful application of that freedom because of fight design, and Goring Blade being tacked-on with GCD drifting because lmao skill speed is also dumb

Ok
Can anyone explain to me what exactly is the NEED for the 2 min burst meta? Why does it even exist? Why does every single job need to line their rotations + buffs within a narrow window perfectly? All it does is maximize peope's dps (which you can't even see without third party tools ffs), at the cost of jobs losing their unqiueness as they have to be increasingly homogenized for this to even work?
Is it LITERALLY just for the sake of parsetrannies?
>NEED
easy alignment of party buffs, something competent parties were doing anyways with party buffs that had roughly similar timings or could be withheld and put off until later to force their alignment
developers having a concrete 2 minute mark to design combat encounters around
>at the cost of jobs losing their unqiueness
why are you defining a job's uniqueness by whether or not its buffs align?
>homogenized
>parsetrannies
commit self destruct
Why do party buffs need to exist?
Its fricking stupid that raid buffs aren't support focused.
DRG doesn't need it. MNK doesn't need it. RDM doesn't need it.
BLM doesn't have one because yoshi knows its fricking stupid for a dps to have one but continues to play favorites.
Dragon in specific feels weird having it because Dragoon never felt like a job very centered on buffs and yet it's one of the DPS that relies the most on it.
Monk feels alright with theirs because I feel like they don't have a lot of eastern martial artist elements to make up for the fact their basic combos are all pugilist, though.
Dragoon is 99% of the time a selfish DPS whenever it appears in a game but they hearken a bit to Freya in FF9, and she has support skills of varying usefulness. Chaos Thrust and Chaotic Spring are her Cherry Blossom skill for reference
I'm confused as well, this two minute window just seems fricking moronic from conception to implementation.
It's to try to make classes as similar and easy to balance as possible.
yes, it also helps encounter designers line up mechanics to add challenge or some nuance to damaging them. You'll notice many big mechanics happen or finish just before that 2 minute interval.
>Is it LITERALLY just for the sake of parsetrannies?
Basically. Every rotation and ability adjustment of at least the last two expansions are to ease shit for raidBlack folk at the cost of making combat completely fricking boring for the other 99% of the game's content.
nothing changed enough that you should think combat is boring because of a change to fricking buff timers if you were somehow entertained by any combat content made in the past ten years
Anon here
is right
Nothing about the jobs has changed, how does buff placement make jobs the same?
They all play differently

So how many times do the writers think they can get away with fakeout deaths before even the dumbest of players get sick of it? Unironically if they pull another Ultima Thule I think there will be outrage. Either kill a character off or don't, but stop pretending you will when you obviously don't have the balls.
The community's overreaction to Haurchefant's death ruined this game's writing and is the reason nobody of importance dies anymore.

I don't know how he even became this iconic anyway.
He was a nice dude, with a bit more screen time, otherwise I hardly gave any more fricks about him then let's say secondary characters from job quests from Job quests.
Last major allied character they killed was what, Papalymo or whatever the frick?
Writers are gutless panderers at this point. Either way EW was objective garbage story wise complete with literal asspulls, doubt this new one shot adventure expansion scheme is going to accomplish much.
You ever wonder why posters that complain about a lack of character deaths being chickenshit always get compared to Ganker Game of Thrones junkies
I don't watch tv or movies and I haven't seen a single episode of game of thrones.
Nobody said you did
If I didn't how the frick would I understand your reference of being compared to GoT junkies.
Because they never say what it would add to the story. "Thancred should have died!" okay what would that have added, other than people complaining that the game will go 'muh thancred' like they complain about Hauchefant. Now Thancred is still around and the writers can do shit with him.*
*Sadly, character growth seemed to have peaked at 6.1 and after that the Scions are back to being cardboard cutouts once more.
FFXIV is a lost cause, find something else to invest in.
This is a very very very japanese thing if you've engaged with jrpgs or anime at all
>finally get triple legends
>realize I have no friends to share it with
bros...
Every single Scion has had either personal growth or been forced to deal with some kind of moral quandary/challenge to their character except Yshtola.
Pointing out how eternally single Y'shotla is due to her nerd behavior would insult the player base.

you will always need to balance summoner around the things it summons, including bahamut and phoenix
>classes have mechanics
What a nothing fricking post Jesus Christ
in light of this nothing post where are you fricking midwits getting the idea that jobs are all the same and all feel the same
You wouldn't know following these threads
How many of these class mechanics conveniently line up with the 2 minute meta?
2min isn't just about buffs, but all moves a class has. The classes feel homogenized because so many of them are about building up some meter or gauge so you can get a huge burst of damage. Too many jobs are 2 minutes of boring buildup, with 20seconds of high intensity burst damage.
>How many of these class mechanics conveniently line up with the 2 minute meta?
Not a lot of them because GCD speed and attack flow have not changed appreciably since late Heavensward to Stormblood. You walked into this one with an assumption and then slammed your face against a wall trying to come in through the door.
so, where/how do i get reshade?
looking it up just gives me gshade
i'm literally tech illiterate lmao
qrd on meme
every important buff in the game used to be on 30sec, 60sec, 90sec, 120sec, 150sec, and 180sec cooldowns
over the years they all got changed to 120sec
this allowed for tighter job balance, but more importantly, tighter enrage timers. making raid encounters much more engaging
people bad at math, bad at gaming, and who have shit taste think this is a bad thing
so is the gif showing they are all blowing cds at the same time
are those separate players or the samep layer
the copies of the same player is a meme on the idea that every job is the same now
not a legit complaint
oh ok
I would like to question why the dps are the ones giving raid buffs to the party instead of everyone else. Shouldn't DPS be the ones doing the damage themselves, not enabling others as if they're all support(outside of DNC)?
Imagine WHM with Plentiful Harvest (or whatever RPR's buff is called) and she gets Blood Lilies from the team buff.
I look at DRG and laugh because its got a bunch of buffs where their could be more damage buttons that rotates its own kit.
astrologian has powerful dps buffs to give the party
but yea, would be cool if some tanks were involved with this
WAR maintaining a battle cry buff for the party in-between all the nothing they do waiting for IR to come off cooldown sounds great.
EW made Summoner a Summoner but also forgot to make it a caster how did they forget
Summoner doesn't really cast anything on its own unless your game gives them White Mage as a gimme like FF9 and FFX did.
Hell offhand I can't think of a summoner class in previous games that was just about summoning. Rydia is the most famous and she's more about being a Black Mage than her summoned monsters.
Come to think of it yeah I'm pretty sure there's never been a "pure" Summoner in the entire franchise. You'd basically be a wasted party slot in the low levels since nosummonslmao and you're still fighting against Black Mage in the midgame, then you get outclassed by Black Mage for single-target damage towards midgame-endgame and your main value is stuff like Phoenix.
>Come to think of it yeah I'm pretty sure there's never been a "pure" Summoner in the entire franchise.
FFT Summoner only Summons. Granted you can tack on a 2ndary skill set to do other things but it can do fine with just summons.

Playing WotL on PSP Emulator with the FPS fix really made summoner a lot more enjoyable.

Whoa
what are you trying to prove or show exactly?
he's so casual that he wants gathering nerfed
You need to spend hours doing unfun worthless auxilary activity just so you can raid
I wasn't aware DoH/DoL were required to queue Savage
no you don't
just buy that shit off the MB
WoW buck broke an entire generation of gamers into thinking that raiding is something that matters.
You must be pretty poor if you can't just buy stacks of 99 off the market board.
Sounds like a skill issue.
you can literally buy all the gear you need to raid from the mb
same with materia, you can just ask someone from your fc (which you should have if you plan to fricking do savage raids)
Dude the only shit you "need" is food and flasks that don't even require anything to gather with cooldown.
Nevermind just buying it for what is worth like a few duties.
Literally shut the frick up moron
I don't craft either
qrd for me and
What are you poor? Who does their own crafting?
Frick you homosexual
Can't wait for that 6.0 retcon.
Simple: A "I won't use my cooldowns" campaign
Put a statement in your search comment. Post on the forums. Announce your intention to not use any cooldowns at the start of every duty, and stand by it. Eventually Yoshida will HAVE to listen to us.
90% of the people who play this game already don't, they do not care if we're dealing damage or not
pretty much all 4 man duties can be solo'd by the tank alone
what anon said is true
literally no one uses their buffs already because they're braindead lol

You raise the damage of everything slightly and get rid of dps damage windows that use these damage buffs that are brainless in execution.

go back to school, niglet
Pushing a button to make number bigger every 2 minutes isn't engaging. You might as well just buff everything's damage by like 1-2% and just remove those from the game. Also, increase outgoing boss damage so healer actually need to use GCD heals or just remove them and replace them with damage spells so their dps rotation isn't sleep inducing.
>Pushing a button to make number bigger every 2 minutes isn't engaging

Skills placed on a hotbar can be made <mo> exclusive w/o requiring a macro or 3rd-party workaround.
>DRG
- Give me something more interesting than Spineshatter Dive and Dragonfire Dive. They're beholden to the old rules for Jump, are visually unimpressive due to their age, and don't feel good to control or send out. I give Stardiver a pass because even though it's a glorified Dragonfire Dive, it's good to look at and has the Nidhogg attack animation
- Turn Mirage Dive into a jump attack
- I would kill for Skyshatter Dive from PvP to be incorporated in some way, maybe as a 120s ability in the vein of Ogi Namikiri for Samurai, or as a replacement for Dragonfire Dive. !!!I AM EXTREMELY AWARE I WILL NOT BE INVINCIBLE FOR ITS DURATION BECAUSE THAT'S STUPID!!!
- Either scrap Piercing Talon or make it part of the AoE rotation because it's a bad skill and always has been
- Wyrmwind Thrust needs a more visually impressive effect for the spear's travel, look up PAPACHIN's mod for this skill specifically
- Rename Life Surge to Lancet and Chaotic Spring to Cherry Blossom
- Would appreciate Sky Grinder, Dragon's Fang and Celestial Shooter from Dissidia 012 as new skills for consideration, Mirage Dive shows they're already using Kain's Bands for inspiration
- That's it
AM EXTREMELY AWARE I WILL NOT BE INVINCIBLE FOR ITS DURATION BECAUSE THAT'S STUPID!!!
Why not? What's wrong with some jobs having something unique to them?
What the frick makes you think a long delay with invincibility before pushing out a jump attack would be fun at all?
I think it's fun. Dragoon with an actual jump sure will be much more fun. Right now its jumps don't even feel like jumps, it feels like you're not a fricking dragoon with a spear but a homosexual with a toothpick.
Now you're a homosexual with a toothpick that literally leaves the battlefield.
>Literally get to say frick you guys I'm going home
>Not the coolest shit possible
It's like you guys hate fun.
Because this game is designed differently, it's meant for all jobs to be viable in all content and thus you cannot have horribly imbalanced jobs or abilities.
If you want that, play FF11, it's EXACTLY what you are asking for.
What game are you playing where a DRG occasionally dodging raidwide damage will break fights?
You clearly haven't done anything beyond a leveling dungeon in XIV if you can't see how broken something like that can be.
No I've actually done every piece of content except for TOP. Want to answer the question? Tell me where dodging raidwide damage will break a fight.
>i-ive done all content
No normal human being says that, stop larping. You can use it to dodge raidwide damage, debuffs, and even targetable damage if you want, it's gamebreaking.
>Tankbuster coming up
>Tanks specifically toggle off stance so they don't gain too much threat
>Both tanks shirk the Dragoon
>Dragoon giga jumps to avoid damage
Again, go play FFXI, that LITERAL EXACT MOVE is in the game, you'd love it. You have to accept that XIV is not that kind of game and things are kept within certain parameters for a reason, it's so that content itself can be designed in a fun and open way where people aren't forced into a specific meta or jobs aren't useless.
Hell even some dungeon mechanics and bosses you'll bend over your knee if you can just jump away and ignore them for 5s
Yeah, like.... uhh.... w-w-well you could avoid Cagnazzo's tsunami!
Try things that aren't direct attacks, brainlet
>Ramuh's Chaos, Ruby Princess's similar charm for the Old baskets

Make it just HG style invincibility, problem solved.
Five seconds of Hallowed Ground on a half-minute, minute or two-minute interval? What the frick?
>THINK ABOUT THE FRICKING RAIDWIDES THE HEALER'S FRICKING OVERHEAL PARSE WILL BE THROUGH THE ROOF IF YOU DON'T NEED THE PARTY HEALS
Let me reiterate that your suggestion was giving Dragoon a 5 second period of invulnerability every 2 minutes at highest, whereas Paladin gets 10 seconds of invulnerability every 7 minutes.
Do you understand how Hallowed Ground is actually used?
We've already moved to downplaying how good Hallowed Ground is, so I'd like to repeat for anybody watching that your suggestion was to give Dragoon an objectively superior version of Hallowed Ground that can be used 3 times, totaling 15s of invulnerability, in the time it takes for Paladin to receive 10s, and Dragoon's variant also includes an attack.
And what tank busters are being aimed at DRG the mentioned period of time?
Repeatedly downplaying the sheer value of 15s of invincibility vs. 10s of invincibility while asking stupid questions regarding Dragoon's tanking focus, that you know are stupid and misleading, is really not the argument you should be making.
You know monk could literally tank TEA? Fights are designed with 2 tanks in mind.
Right so DRG doesn't even need to spend his invulnerabilities on tank busters, making them even better. You have no fricking idea how many mechanics you can break with reliable invulnerability, do you? They might as well take TBs out of the game since you'd just shirk them to your DRG.
see
Easily manipulated. You could cheese many mechanics in ultimates with the ability to have a third tank invuln.
Frick off casual shitter
uh... how about the raidwides that assign debuffs? How about any mechanic that needs to interact with the player at all?
>Let me just ignore the Curtain Call explosions during P4S
>Let me just ignore the start of High Concept and wipe the raid because it does damage inversely proportional to the number of people it hits and also just not get the Perfection
>Let me just ignore Hell's Judgement while everyone else is at 1hp
what game are you playing
So you couldn't actually think of a way it was unbalanced or broken and now you had to swerve into "if you use it poorly you could frick your party up".
So you might... dodge inconsequential damage. Damn I guess you got me there, that's gamebreaking!
>dodge inconsequential damage
anon gaols are usually instakills if you ignore them and bosses can break if things like sable price don't get broken or don't even go off
do you play this game
Did you know that anyone right now, right this instant, could just not touch the sable price? It's true. No jump needed.
way to interact with only half an argument anon i'm sure you're a fantastic raider interacting with only half a mechanic
Bro I literally gave you an example with High Concept there is reason your party needs to be set up parfectly in order to go into that mechanic, you can't have someone be alive but not have the debuffs the mech literally doesn't work if you do, the other anon gave you one with tankbuster, allowing them to use those cooldowns during mechs where they shouldnt have them, there is a point to balancing the damage people take, Shadowkeeper is another example, you could bait a purple umbral orb instead of a tank then just jump it. Or just jump the four shadow cleaves, ignoring that entire mechanic
Any cast that requires a hit to apply a debuff would break the mech bc you didnt get the debuff if you just disappear from the map
Depending on how the jump is coded you could just dodge Alexanders time stop
You could do the tank dd strat for Intemperance but jump to avoid the DD, there's a whole lot of bullshit that you could do
>what if you could solve a mechanic in more than one way if you had the skill, awareness, and party synergy to do so? THE HORROR!!!
I wish you'd played during ARR so you could have seen SMN tank Ramuh and Eos soak Twintania fireballs so then you would have a nice day and spare my game your moronic anti-RPG horseshit.
>example given where a raid would break and potentially wipe the party if a Dragoon was allowed to have Rugrats party time
>starts fricking babbling about skill, awareness, and party synergy
No, we moved past the High Concept example because it had nothing to do with your attempted point about DRG being unbalanced. You know I was talking about the Shadowkeeper example and dodged it on purpose.
>like it was a bad thing
Fix your reading comprehension. My post was in support of creative alternative ways of solving mechanics. Almost like this game is supposed to be a fricking rpg or something.
>THE EXAMPLE WHERE A RAID COULD BE BROKEN BY THIS JUMP IDEA IS IRRELEVANT
Double Jump off a cliff moron
High Concept will break if I run into the death wall too you stupid motherfricker.
you're still alive to see how you fricked up the raid when you come back down
Dude have you considered the reason why the devs don't let you go into that mech without exactly 8 people? Why having someone die going into it causes you to get 9999999999 damage?
and a dragoon being able to do that with an attack is stupid yes
you've failed to convince at minimum four people that your idea is not fricking stupid and continuing to post in defense of the idea will not improve your standing
please either reconsider your stance or stop talking
Wrong anon, I'm not saying the DRG idea is any good
sorry
>SMN tank Ramuh and Eos soak Twintania fireballs
>Saying that like it was a bad thing
Next you'll tell me the change to lustrate was justified because white mages cried about how it broke Ramuh.
Your idea is moronic, think about all the mechanics you could break, let's even just say it's an invuln and you are still intractable, think about all the mechs you could just cheese, like Intemperance, which you didn't address. Not to mention the myriad of mechs you could just ignore, like gorgomantaea unless your FOV still match your character regardless of height.
You could make tiles a frick ton more easy bc you could just jump the cleaves too. Really go through different fights and think about how your idea could just cheese them.
>Shadowkeeper is another example, you could bait a purple umbral orb instead of a tank then just jump it. Or just jump the four shadow cleaves, ignoring that entire mechanic
This is a good point too, what the frick happens with aimed mechanics where the Dragoon just leaves? Untargetable, invincible? Let's say the guy suggesting it just be Hallowed Ground is how it's worked in and you still exist as a targetable entity but you're still invincible, how would it ever get past a balance pass that Dragoon can trivialize whole sets of mechanics by taking them for himself and jumping off?
Ain't bullshit fun? Like seriously, give every job something cool, not just dragoon, that's just one simple example. Every job should have something "broken" is a way because God damn it you are a fricking warrior of light you're not a fricking goon that is worse than NPCs. Yea because right now Estinien literally dabs you in terms of being a dragoon for example
None of you even think about how these ideas interact with how the game works. Great ideas.... for FFXVII
It might break the game yes. But who the frick cares if it's fun?
The people trying to play the game might care, bullshit is way more ok in a game you can control, not in a multiplayer game with other people. Especially not this game with it's fricked up code..
Nobody complaints about PvP skills being broken despite the fact that they in fact are.
In fact everyone loves it.
pvp is a completely different context where everybody is a bit broken, for this to apply to pve you'd need bosses and enemies that have similar levels of broken
Ain't this a job for the developers? But it's possible and you know it.
sure it's possible if you make yet another game, because no retooling everything to this new design is not a small, quick, or cheap job

>people b***h about NIN lb
>people b***hed about WAR lb
>people b***hed about BLMs everything when it got buffed
>people b***h about the crowd control being overpowered
Like every other thread has someone b***hing about pvp abilities, same with people in my static or eve on twitter
It's mostly because people hate dying to other people. Those guys will cry about everything.
What bubble did you fricking come from? There were complaints since day one of the revamp. Even the shitty ffxiv forums has a months long thread about how much they hate how fricked pvp is.
5 screeching morons do not count. Seriously. The overall reaction was absolutely positive.
More satisfying animations for MNK skills like true strike, snap punch, twin snakes, etc. Or rather have an upgraded version like what they did with forbidden chakra and the aoe version.
I don't need DBZ on every button I press
I meant satisfying not tacky shit like what most mods do. This doesnt only apply to visuals but also sound effects. I like DK and Bootshine as is (maybe a but more oomf when you have leaden fist).
Thunder III gets an upgrade, the engine gets reworked so AoE spells go off even if the enemy dies halfway through the cast, and you give me Ultima.
There.
>Ultima
*upgrade Despair to Comet
Comet will be AST's new damage spell in 7.0 since they're out of suffixes for Malefic.
And it will still have less potency than Broil XX
Broil is getting replaced too since we're on -ja now
>High Broil
Or maybe give them Flambe from the Ink Mage in Heroes' Gauntlet
They already have it with Macrocosmos, kind of, but Meteor is an upgrade to Comet and that's a spell with BLM association as LB3. Though personally I just want the lv. 99 or lv. 100 capstone skill to be a lesser version of everyone's Limit Breaks as a sign you've truly hit the upper ceiling of your job's capabilities
Comet has always classically been a time magic spell.
Meteor has been a black magic spell.
Comet depends totally and completely on whether the game even has Time Mage. It's Black Magic in FF9, FF11, and Dimensions
Stella!
You know what, I'll take that too.
As much as Paradox feels great to use, Black Mage's endgame is always a shift towards non-elemental spells and it annoys me that we're still relying so much on Fire and Ice. Which, yes, is central to the XIV incarnation, but frick, look at White Mage, THEY got rid of Aero and Quake.
Delete it from the game and nobody would miss it.
White Mage is good as is, but lets speculate. Medica can probably be trimmed. Of all classes, I think WHM could get away with Esuna being baked into their gcd heals. breath life into Cure 1. Plenary Indulgence should give an afflatus charge when its used. Afflatus itself is about perfect, i'd put Misery on the ogcd but keep Solace and Rapture on it. I think we could also have Thin Air give Swiftcast. I'd be worried about buffing Tetra and Assize as they're already extremely powerful and having lots of ogcds is AST's thing. Benediction, Temperance and Liturgy are all just about perfect. Perhaps add a small bubble to Benediction as well, enough to say take on another auto attack and try to smooth out the animation and effect.
I think Divine Benison is too good and is the ideal ability to remove if they insist on the pure/shield healer schtick.
as for a new capstone, there's always Reraise, which may be more in flavor for AST, but i'm afraid of the cheese strats that would enable. I think, taking a page from Aeris, that Great Gospel would be a good ability, say, 6 seconds of invulnerability cast on target.
>more dps buttons
who the frick cares about healer dps rotations. Seraph Strike I think will become a pve ability, perhaps even with its affect of giving a free, swiftcasted Cure III too, but should avoid giving a dps buff because it would make WHM far too good.
add something else to nins gauge or something, dumping out bhavas feels kinda lackluster. bring back dancing edge or some other gcd to add so we arent just doing 1-2-3 or 1-2-4. also do something else with mesui, maybe make it so it resets 1 mudra?
nin is pretty much perfect right now so there isnt much to fix
It's perfect.
>Auto match AST cards to the right dps. Not its not skill its busy work with no feedback for a buff system that's just worse and clunkier than hitting Divination

What
says basically. A GCD ninki spender on like a 30-45-60-90s cooldown or something
>NIN's only damage MIT needs to have its cooldown halved. Maybe even more than that. If my job is going to be stuck in this weird middle ground between pure damage melee and ranged tax hell in terms of DPS without excelling at either, I should have more survivability. Way more. Bad enough they keep nerfing my job into the ground in PvP. Don't need to be just as useless in PvE.

I don't know, bros. At this point the only job I somewhat enjoy is GNB. Like frick what's even the fricking point of dumbing down jobs? It's not fun, it's not fricking interesting to play a different job because you will basically do the same shit. All healers just spam one fricking button. Or gather a resource spend in 2 minutes, it's fricking boring. All jobs feel the same because of it. Not a single job has like an actual flavour. There's no reason to cater to casuals or parsetrannies because casuals will be shit no matter what and parsetrannies will still use the most optimal jobs that deal 1% more damage than the rest.
I exclusively jerk off to modded images of Ryne in high heels.
they really need to remove melee combos.
they cant add anything interesting when jobs like dragoon have a 7 button melee mandatory combo that is not fun to do.
You monkeys don't even do anything other than sit in Limsa with your nude mods and run expert roulette every once in a while. What gives you the impression that you're suited to talk about the state of the game and jobs?

You really like making up strawman arguments to an unknown audience so you can feel superior because you're really insecure, don't you? Have you considered that a lot of people playing the game from the start hate seeing their classes degraded into 2 min garbage?
There should be only one job allowed for all raid content. It should only have one ability that automatically hits itself every time it's off gcd. It does damage if you're DPS, healing if you're a healer, and mitigation if you're a tank. That way every butthole who only gives a shit about raiding can use this perfectly designed job so they can focus on their fight and the rest of the game is free to have fun, wacky shit without caring about the .4% of the game where this shit matters.
Who are you quoting?
>ultimate raids
>high end content
>difficult
I shall repeat this once for posterity. That kind of content is basically a hard "having friends check." There's nothing innately difficult about it. If you have the tight-knit FC, social circle, close group of online buddies, you can get through it all. Problem is, most of the community is shit out of luck in that regard and is forced to stick with PF. You are a normalgay who is part of the 1%.
>its the minigame moron posting his useless webms again
What's the tldr on this gshade thing? Is it a virus now or what?
Gshade briefly put in a piece of malware (and yes it is legally considered malware) that restarted your computer if you hit an anti-tamper function with in it, after the developer was upset by people forking it off so as to keep it from updating every other minute
Community trust in the software immediately plummeted since infecting your computer with a virus purely to satisfy the ego of somebody that's already five steps behind base ReShade is not their idea of a good time
They may have violated federal US law by writing and distributing software that no-questions-asked restarts a computer with no print-out or error message of any kind
Easy we get rid of it and bump classes damage that need it up,
everyone having a 2 minute buff damage window is stupid and further homogenizes the classes because they are balanced around it, being free from limitations would help everyone even the devs to make classes fun again.
>Raiders complain about cooldowns not being 60 or 120 seconds, purposely held buffs to stack them all at once
>Devs adjusts buffs to naturally align
>Raiders complain about buffs being 60/120
NO ONE HELD BUFFS
You absolutely held buffs lmao
NO YOU DIDN'T NOT UNLESS BOSSES DISAPPEARED
60, 90, 120s ALL STACKED NORMALLY EVERY 3 MINUTE
b***h bosses disappear in FFXIV all the damn time
it's literally impossible for them to design a fight where you do mechanics and DPS at the same time
Nobody was complaining about having to hold buffs, if anything it just increased the skill level because knowing when to do it relative to kill time was part of the planning.
I've made it to level 55 in Eureka. Probably could make it to 60 in a few hours once the challenge log resets. How should I get prepped for BA?
I think that only with the recommended actions you should be fine, but I forgot what they were
Damn, know anywhere I can find out? I've just been running Platebearer to survive as RDM. Should I go in with the Vermilion casting cloak?
try looking up a beginner's guide on google or whatever. It should have the recommended actions + some details that a new player to BA might miss and/or frick up
Is there a discord or some spot where people organize BA for Chaos? I'm reading up on a guide now and holy shit there's a lot of planning needed here.
>want to run BA
>discord is required
I dunno how to get into that shit or when it starts man.
Gotta find the discord first. I'll keep in mind those actions, though.
I'm just venting over the fact no one uses in game chat to talk. It's all discord garbage. I would kill for a push to talk feature in game.
because people are going into BA to get their mount and don't want to frick others up while doing it, it's a complete waste of time to use the in game chat for something like that. this isn't some random shit you can just do.
I get you, but for BA I don't want to frick up and have to wait hours or days just to try again.
Thanks I found it. I'll try and figure shit out from there. Cheers!
You can probably just Google (data center) BA discord server and get a link. The server for chaos is apparently called Late Night
Nah, stab a portal and play a dps with platebearer and shell and dodge mechanics. Raidwides will do nothing to you. I don't even join the discord runs anymore if I ever want to do ba, I just watch for their runs and follow them in. I'm not listening to some dumb troony prattle on about unfunny bullshit or explain a boss that does 2 whole mechanics every time I want to do the place
join their discord to find out when a run is going to happen and don't interact in the discord at all, get into their instance and snipe their portals, you can get aetheric stabilizers for this
early pull their fates with full elemental gear and especially the important ones that can drop the expensive items, bonus points if you spawn them all by yourself and they had no idea it's going to spawn, because they usually announce in their servers that they're farming the important fates and when they spawn
I have been banned from BA discords and people would often refuse to link me the trackers when I joined an instance
become the bane of eurekatrannies, make them seethe at your mere presence
but unfortunately sniping BA portals is probably pointless now because I doubt their runs get full anymore, even early pulling is kind of pointless because you won't kill the fate all by yourself and they'll get there before you do but people still get mad
I always stab on aether, and I farm another stab before I feel like doing ba again because I hate ABBA discord, they get full runs on Saturdays but that's about it so I only do ba on Saturday
I still need to farm cassie earring but at least the money nm farmers are all shitheads too
Those discord masses you can just run spirit of the remembered and the cheap wisdom for your job and you'll get your ozma mount the first time. Just queue up and join the party the bot tells you to, get in calls and listen for callouts. Every boss in that place is dungeon boss tier except ozma
>Is there a discord or some spot where people organize BA for Chaos
open late is the name of the discord, ask for an invite in eureka, maybe in hydatos when you see a lot of people doing it
or pampa finder if you are fr*nch
>die on floor 181 in potd

Would require a top down rework of all jobs, wouldnt happen until 7.0
>all this whining about fake character deaths
>killed off Minfillia, now we're stuck with a ginger-pubed mini-me version of Minfillia who is basically worse in every way. Oh and she has a lesbian friend who is into lip injection cosmetic surgery. 98% of the cast won't be able to see her again until presumably patch 7.9 or some shit
>Killed off Haucherfaunt (not even going to attempt to spell that correctly)
>killed of Moenbryda

>Killed of Zeno, now we're stuck with Void c**t
FRICK OFF YOU TWATS. Every time they kill someone, something bad happens that irreparably fricks the story. And empirically speaking, it's not like the game doesn't have the balls to kill off characters
Only thing I can agree with is that they really should have killed off Thancred. Dude has no reason to exist anymore. Minfillia being a stoic wienertease from beyond the grave was just cruel and unusual punishment for him. Just pity the guy at this point.
Man I miss Paps, he was a fricking bro
At least we have Krile now I guess
what the FRICK is a preset creator?
Someone who pushes sliders and takes it very seriously.
good luck on your house lotteries
Thank you, ass.
>Gaius' base of operations is Ala Mhigo
>invades Silvertear through Carteneau
Why did he fly around the entire continent
Also wasn't he Solus' right hand man you'd figure the 14th mutining would be a bigger deal in-world
Carteneau has Allagan goodies in it so it kills two birds with one stone
The XIVth Legion did not actually mutiny, Gaius was ignoring a return-home call and he was attempting to get Eorzea conquered as a Hail Mary before he was court-martialed and probably executed (Bahamut dropping under Solus's approval was extremely suspicious to him and being summoned back to Garlemald after that even moreso)
Native Garleans look at pretty much all Legions with equal admiration, with the exception of the IVth Legion which is made up of filthy normies and mages
Gaius did not invade from Carteneau, he invaded from Ala Mhigo. You're thinking of the VIIth Legion holding ground there because Nael was dropping Dalamud there to kill Omega.
The Agrius belonged to the XIVth
Yeah, and it flew in from Ala Mhigo. I don't know where you got the idea he came from Carteneau.
My wife.
Just burn down the idea of shared party burst, make jobs distinct with no concern for kit discrepancies, and make so fights are reasonably clearable by even the worst job combination for them.
>but that will make the fights easy if you optimize for them by using the best jobs possible!
So? If you optimize your strategy for beating a fight, the fight will be easier to beat. That's true of literally every other videogame under the sun, and this can't be true here because?
will never happen, sorry
Yeah, I know. I'm just annoyed about the whole FRICK YEAH BROOOO ME AND MY PARTY WANNA RUPTURE MY FRICKING BALLS TRYING TO OPTIMIZE EVERY LAST GCD FAR BEYOND WHAT ANY REASONABLE PLAYER WOULD DO!!!!!!! AND THE JOBS ALL GOTTA BE DIFFERENT AND HAVE DIFFERENT STRENGTHS FROM EACH OTHEEERRRR SO THEY ALL PERFORM DIFFERENTLY IN EACH FIGHT!!!!!! ...wait what do you mean the fight was easy as a result of me making all the optimal choices?! The Frick?!
I want more stuff like Macrocosmos in P3S just wholly fricking skipping a mechanic.
Black person logic
Burst meta is boring, I want my DoTs back.
Do unreal, buy a mount or minion and sell it for millions, boom you are set for the tier
people who have never cleared a single savage fight should not be able to talk about balance, job design and balance is irrelevant for you
i cleared o1s (:
And what about people who have cleared all content and played all jobs? Shut the frick up dude
So not you?
I cleared P1S and P5S. The juxtaposing from a game advertised as play whatever you want and switch if you get tired; to:
>you better be 5 ilvl higher than the minimum to join a party and not die by the raidwides
>X job sucks right now and no one wants it around. oh its your favorite? Too bad frick you
>No full Materia and best raid food? Your a burden
>Don't know what that means nor what bis is? How did you not know about this one discord group that is the holy bible of raiding
>Easy 1 mil down the drain just for crafted gear
>Didn't no-life the savage tiers week one? Good luck with party finder spergs rage quitting in prog groups
>What's a tank swap?
>Yay I found a static
>Oh no the static broke up
Nothing could have prepared me for this nonsense. Even if I love the job I'm playing doing its rotation for over an hour is exhausting.
All that just to lose the roll and get no gear for beating that floor
holy moly what a moron
t-thanks
yeah thats always what the party says AFTER no one mitigates it and people die
Yeah the thing about prog is that you don't know which raid wides are actually more dangerous until they kill you. Are you the kind of person who b***hes at people in learning parties?
Oh wait
>you better be 5 ilvl higher than the minimum to join a party and not die by the raidwides
>No full Materia and best raid food? Your a burden
Yeah you sound like a moron who wants a carry.
homie P1S was my first savage. No one wanted a carry. I was new and the complete change to how the game is played for raiders was shocking.
See how your being a cheeky ass about my experience? That was a lot of the attitude I got for not knowing shit before hand.
>you better be 5 ilvl higher than the minimum to join a party and not die by the raidwides
Bro, your mitigation?
>you better be 5 ilvl higher than the minimum to join a party and not die by the raidwides
If you die to a raidwide above min ilvl your party is full of shitters not mitigating. Call them out or kick the tank/shield healer.
>X job sucks right now and no one wants it around. oh its your favorite? Too bad frick you
Blacklisting MCH on PF was not the rule and anyone doing it looked like a clown.
>No full Materia and best raid food? Your a burden
Which is very cheap to get nowadays? Botters are 24/7 on it.
>Don't know what that means nor what bis is? How did you not know about this one discord group that is the holy bible of raiding
Bruh you can calculate your own gear set with a spreadsheet just by looking at the pieces. The stat priority is braindead.
>Easy 1 mil down the drain just for crafted gear
Gotta keep that economy running buddy. Why craft otherwise?
>Didn't no-life the savage tiers week one? Good luck with party finder spergs rage quitting in prog groups
Stop playing on NA.
>What's a tank swap?
Kick the tank?
>Yay I found a static
>Oh no the static broke up
You won't get the perfect static first try.
>>No full Materia and best raid food?
I consider this griefing if you don't
I can assure you your old static still exists they are just ghosting you moron.
>>you better be 5 ilvl higher than the minimum to join a party and not die by the raidwides
Not if you're mitigating, that's why it's called MINIMUM item level moron
>>X job sucks right now and no one wants it around. oh its your favorite? Too bad frick you
Wow if only there was some sort of system in place that let you switch to another job to play whenever you want or easily level one. And a 18/19 chance that at least one other job uses the same gear
>>No full Materia and best raid food? Your a burden
Yes you are dipshit, don't come into high end content missing 10 levels' worth of substats and vitality that's required to not die moron
>>Don't know what that means nor what bis is? How did you not know about this one discord group that is the holy bible of raiding
nobody cares if you're not BiS outside of ultimates or speedruns
>>Easy 1 mil down the drain just for crafted gear
Yeah that's right, pay up or level those crafters homosexual.
If mitigation and i lvl is an issue than stick to extremes since the first savage of each floor is barely any more complicated than exs.
How long has the meta been 2 melee, 1 ranged and 1 caster?
And were talking about disliking a synced 120s buff window?
lol
2 casters is still useable
120s buffs are the most absolute fricking banal talking point imaginable for raid balance and the only place it actually matters is TOP.
Group comp doesn't affect my gameplay. Classes being dumbed down or broken up so they can fit inside the 2 minute meta (RIP PLD) is an actual issue because it means classes will never be interesting again as every class will have the same core design; bunch of big burst buttons, some minor burst to follow it up with and wind down and then some basic b***h rotation until the next burst window comes up. Oh but one class will do their big burst damage by doing a kick! And the other stabs their spear! Wowiezowie!
>(RIP PLD)
Paladin plays almost identically to how it did before, now you just don't cast Holy Spirit four times before Confiteor and in return you get a boosted Holy Spirit after Royal Authority.
>Paladin plays almost identically to how it did before
pretending to be moronic also makes you a moron
Finish the quote and read the whole sentence or unzipper your sternum, jackass.
>read the whole sentence
Where does it mention goring blade?
That thing I didn't have to worry about for an extended period if I'd gotten off from casting Blades? One of two reasons Fight or Flight existed before the rework? That Goring Blade? The DoT that felt like shit and did nothing if used outside of FoF but was crucial to be used within it? That Goring Blade?
Yea, that thing you had to pay attention and it a meaningful part of your dps to maintain.
Surely you had more than 1 braincell to maintain right? You CAN maintain debuffs can you?
We're discussing a fricking tank, don't for even a moment try and pull the intellect card. Goring Blade was no smarter in its old use than in its current one.
It seems you can't maintain debuffs after all. No wonder you praise PLD being this moronic honeypot now.
And now, dont change the subject to "muh fantasy", you can't even strawman right.
That's a whole lot of childish b***hing to say "Yea ok I'm moronic they dumbed the frick out of the class since you never need to even think about your rotation anymore".
Since you seem to be having some trouble let me just help you out and feed you your next juvenile-moron line; "It was trivial and didn't matter it's not like it was a hard class to play or anything" and maybe we can skip to something that isn't completely moronic.
what actually got dumbed down holy shit this is so defensive and confrontational over a fricking dot
Wait, people think the old Paladin rotation needed any more thought?? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>He said it anyway
Huh. Guess I somehow still overestimated you. How tragic.
Well now them dumbing things down makes a lot more sense if people like you are playing the job.
>Huh. Guess I somehow still overestimated you. How tragic.
this homie think he vegeta
That line could almost be funny given how you have the mental capacity of a vegetable.
Dis homie mo buh dip duh dubba muhfuggin do dibba muh dick n sheeeit
>t. hasn't played paladin
Black person what the frick are you on about? Almost identical? How many more times to they need to dumb shit down one step at a time before you realize you're a fricking frog slowly being boiled. God I fricking hate you delirious morons.
Dont feed the roulette hero pretender
so was it actually different or are you gonna spend that time screaming about a slippery slope instead
>Spoonfeed me so I can pretend to be moronic more effectively next time!
Yea no, I think we'll just keep laughing at your absurd stupidity. Feel free to tell yourself you won something.
ok sneed i guess
This shit right here, this homosexualry needs to go, I'm doing more dps than 90% of you homosexual ass pf melee but I can't join for some arbitrary reason
Make your own party with all DPS positions unlocked because it's week 1000 and comp literally doesn't matter.
I still want 1 melee 1 ranged 1 caster 1 wild but Im actually ok with the wild being any dps rather than just melee
You get the full party buff with 1m/1r/1c + 1 any. The only reason people lock you out is because they are moronic shitters that are blindly follow week 1 meta. The only encounter I think is fricked without 2m is TOP.
Pretty sure Ranged classes get increased enmity by default
Some moronic ff14 shit that belongs to the general?
Make dungeons 5-man(1-1-2-1). 5th slot is for support classes(now yellow). They are the only classes with any significant buff mechanics and have very low damage(like healer level)
8man parties have the 8th slot converted to support(2-2-3-1). Their buffs, if used correctly, spread across 7 other people should be good enough to make up for the lost DPS.
Play FFXI and stop posting.
>STOP WANTING THE GAME TO GET BETTER ITS PERFECT ITS PERFECT CRITICISM IS TREASON YOU JUST HATE THE GAME YOU'RE BARRY RIGHT YEAH YOU'RE BARRY FROM WOW TRYING TO PLANT BAD THOUGHTS IN MY HEAD LALALALALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU THE GAME IS PERFECT SHUT UP SHUT UP
Yeah stop posting, you clearly have mental issues.
Jesus Christ, did you miss your nap earlier?
we can make the game good without turning it into another game you fricking homosexual.
>every game should just be the same
no
nobody will want to play that role and pf will die
*dungeon queues die from compulsory new role*
I like it, and unlike other people said, it would be played, after all DNC is pretty much a support class.
But PF would indeed shit itself, not because of people not playing the class, but because the game is held with spit and cum and the devs dont know what they're doing.
I'll keep using add-ons because of video related. SE won't remove the gays, so I will.
>Noooo my eyes they bleeeeed bawwwww
Pathetic manlet.
should've turned them into pool's closed men
That's a good idea! I just copied a glamour nearby and I like how they look like g-men infecting my server
Stay mad, troon.
Which plugin lets you turn them into anything you want?
Pnembura + glamourer
Go wild, and delete shit glamours!
Oh I didn't know penumbra could be used for stuff other than modbeasts. Cheers anon
You're a moron for using glamourer to do the same as you could do with voidlist.
It's not like I want to completely delete them. Just make them less of an eyesore on my end.
Black person you're all morons because you're using mods purely because you can't cope. Just ignore those dumb fricks and do w/e the frick you want, but noooo fragile miss snowflake can't bear to look at... whatever the frick you're now bothered by I guess? So please save me modderman!
Your glamour is shit, m8.
The fact that you think anyone would care is outright pathetic. Also what glam?
>Nooo you have to play dress-up-dollies when you play FFXIV!!
No way gay.
If no one cares then why did you comment on it?
>American reading comprehension
Jesus frick how horrifying.
>no one cares! Let me tell you how much no one cares!
Take your meds, lol.
>Noooo you called me stupid so you care!
No mate, I just called you stupid because you're a fricking moron.
lol, why did you reply in the first place if no one cares. Gonna keep enjoying my mods though.
>W-well okay then I'll just keep being a little b***h I guess...
You do you buddy, not sure why you had to sperg out as much as you did to get there but you did it.
>you do you
You know how I can tell you are subhuman?
No anon, I can't really bring myself down to your level so you're going to have to explain by what contrived means you've determined whatever it is you've allegedly figured out.
And please, do share, I can only imagine the depths of absurdity I'll get to enjoy here.
Stop bullying me you piece of shit
I've had it with this fricking online forun. Never coming back here again
I wish no one would care about other peoples glam
Just remove party buffs, keep shit like AST and DNC single targets
Whats even the point of them anymore?
>plugingays trying to go one week without embarrassing themselves challenge (impossible)
The post-ShB newbies that have developed a near religious devotion to the game and the devs will be the death of it. There was a time when we all understood that those who criticize the game are the ones who care. We know that from 1.0, and it was a lesson the devs supposedly learned. But what's going on now is that criticism is responded to with hostility. Those who worship the dev team believe that any change made is the correct one by virtue of the change being made. The devs are the ones making the game, therefore they are correct and you are wrong. And voices like these are quickly drowning out the ones that are disappointed seeing our game get gutted of depth. Look at WoW if you want to know how this ends up.
>pld can now use holy spirit after royal authority
Oh shit job ruined
>Never have to worry about adjusting rotation to accommodate your DoT
>Just mindlessly unga just like WAR :^)
>Class is basically the same guise dun worry!
RDM should have a spell that changes it's function based on having more black or white mana, like pvp. Make it a damage buff along with the attack if black higher and a heal potency buff (significant, like 20%) if black higher. One is good for prog one is good for kill. Have it be 90s or something, incentivizing you to use it situationally and not pool it for 2mins
I don't press my group buffs anymore except when they give me a lot of dps like reaper's does. 3% dmg is not worth a keystroke for me.
Not in extremes or pf savage. I don't care.
>3% dmg is not worth a keystroke for me.
God this is such moronic thinking, you arethe same motherfricker who only uses 5H in DBFZ bc "why wouldn't I always use my most damaging normal, 5L is just a waste"
Weren't a lot of plds just not pressing their dot entirely lol
I like to think I wouldn't loathe my chosen job to the fricking point where removing a DoT effect in favor of brunt damage is the difference between me finally crossing the line over wanting to kill myself from how boring it is.
I just want to mod my cat to have some slight abs and maybe a better ass in her pants. How hard is it to mod? Is it enough to do it on the body or do I have to do it for every piece of equipment?
Give nin perfect dodge back
DRG should be invincible during jumps. They should also have a jump that last like 3 seconds. Yes, they should be able to skip mechanics with it, for better or worse. The jumps are so fast now that they look stupid. DRG should be THE JUMP CLASS. These devs are just cowards.
Combat would unironically be more fun if every class had some bonkers bullshit
>DRG has invuln on command
>WAR gets nascent flash buffed to 'triple-pull aoes' as its default baseline
>SAM gets parries, straight up nullifying raidwides if they know its coming and getting buffs for it
>RDM and SMN already have rez, they're fine.
>If BLM gets all resources up at once (max polyglot, ice hearts, fire 3, triplecast, leylines, etc) they can spend it all at once for "Frick you" damage. I'm talking like LB-tier shit. Maybe they get damage down after, who cares.
>WHM holy stun never decays.
>MNK gets to heal themselves every time they get and spend chakras, make them the dps tank.
>All MCH attacks penetrate enemies in a straight line. Give them the best AoE who gives a shit.
That's a great way for a game these raidtists keep complaining isn't *challenging enough* or *unique enough* to flip switch and start whining that the game is *not challenging at all* and *everybody can break it*
Which I approve of, because I know they're gonna whine about this game's direction no matter what direction they take.
Actually yea, why should Yoshi listen to them if they cheat their way through anyway?
What is your hyperfixation on cheating? It's been a week.
Because all of you raidtrannies use cheats. That's just been brought to light.
Delusional moron that has never used PF
>cmon goyim its been a week, drop it already
Give ninja back old execute but it automatically kills whatever you use it on
>Kill boss with mug
>drops extra gear
>stand NE during firesday for easy HQ synths
>>If BLM gets all resources up at once (max polyglot, ice hearts, fire 3, triplecast, leylines, etc) they can spend it all at once for "Frick you" damage. I'm talking like LB-tier shit. Maybe they get damage down after, who cares.
I hope that they'll make it so if you have 2 polyglot charges and let a 3rd one clip you get a big nuke spell with a long cast so then using the xeno randomly to move will be a dps loss and make the job at least slightly harder
>You can't use any xenos outside of burst windows, no movement, no transpose lines, no using them for weaving
yeah... sounds real great...
>BLMs get a real excuse to never move
Sounds like heaven
It'd be fine but the rest of you pf Black folk wouldnt be able to handle BLM centered strats
>PF screeching because the party doesn't want to do the BLM cheese strats
>DRG players don't care and abuse their broken iframes for every mechanic, forcing the other party members to actually do mechs instead of skipping
>The SAM autist with a Vergil glam is trying to parry everything for fun
>WARs just straight up don't need healers most of the time, letting the healers focus on buffing and damage and babying the 'honest' DPS jobs
It really does sound better, especially if 1hkos get more common and enemy damage gets higher. Just make the risk/reward higher on everything
>The SAM autist with a Vergil glam is trying to parry everything for fun
How are these things not cool. Like seriously.
Can't have people having fun, only being miserable and coping by "flexing" the rewards
I like this but take away the players autonomy with it. If you ever cap polyglots, they just burst automatically, hurting or debuffing you, but doing big aoe damage. It's like over heating and exploding. You don't wanna do it, but it is still kinda cool if you do.
Every day I thank gGd you homosexuals aren't in a position to ruin my job
Phoenix should be an AoE rez

REMOVE MY FRICKING PACIFY HEALER
I get heavy OF vibes from this guy arguing that DRG jumping out of the game wouldn't break it.
Let me guess, it's aveyond-dreams aka Barry and his nichegamer discord. I noticed this is your new favorite go-to bogeyman.
Bring the thing, raidsissies
None of you Black folk played ARR to know NIN literally had FFXI Utsusemi. Did it break the game? No, but you don't know that
It was rarely if ever useful when NIN had it because a NIN having aggro meant somebody fricked up bad somewhere, compared to FFXI where it could dodge-tank.
Exactly. But if DRG had it then apparently it would break the game according to endbryos.
NIN wasn't straight up invincible even when it had an Usutsemi-like ability.
Wrong, you fricking IDIOT
There were countless incidents where players would abuse Utsusemi on NIN especially in raids where they were permabanned, which spurred the entire change to begin with
Not just ninjas, but black mages too with manawall clear exploits. I'm not talking about blocking a single raidwide like an endbryo like you probably saw in a youtube video, but full on CLEAR changing nullification of debuffs and effects which trivialized the entire fight for entire groups
You would remember this drama if you werent a fricking endbryo. Go back to r*ddit
>Did it break the game? No
It was fun because it could dodge Nael dive in T9, if it had aggro.
ARR TB's weren't anywhere near as predictable as they have been since the expansions. Perfect Dodge wouldn't break ARR fights all that much, but it would definitely break anything HW and up.
You know this, you can't pretend to be so moronic to have played ARR and not be aware of how fricking jank those fights used to be and often still are.
I don't want to remember the days where hard primals were progged like fricking extremes are today, bad memories

What if I told you that in the midday it's worse
Could've had avatargayging
think about that
Oh, my God. WILL YOU PEOPLE PLEASE UNSUB AND FRICK OFF TO YOUR BREAK ALREADY?
Much heatblast phase is fricking dumb. It doesn't make sense and the animations look awful during it. Machinest should be about building and placing shit. Landmines, traps, turrets, barriers, healing stations, buffing stations, ect. Make it the aoe "placing shit" support. They could reuse bishop for it even. Get rid of heatblast completely.
>2023 complaining about mch heat blast
Yeah maybe try it in 2015 you fricking endbryo and see how much better it is now
Heatblast was a panic mode bandaid. They had a fricked class and instead of investing in a proper fix, they just recycled animations and turned it into warrior. Heatblast looks bad and makes no sense, it's time to fix it again.
Heat blast is shit indeed.
>Much
this is how I'm gonna say it from now on

>enchantment shaman
It's garbage shit and I will continue playing summoner in frontline daily roulette, cheesing until I get reddit söy 5, and then idling until my lb is back up. Beats the hell out interacting with shitty ass CC and I'll have all the pvp rewards by the end of the season
Mch should be the debuff support. Use that wrench to keep enemies debuffed > gain scrap > use scrap to build shit for the party.
I want engaging support mechanics. Dancer dances, bard plays songs, mch builds.

Cry harder.
PVP was better in HW.
Deader, barely queuing, full of bots and trade winners.
That was SB, when it started giving a ridiculous amount of exp.
Never been good
SB was when it peaked. i remember everyone was running that shit cause it was the fastest way to level and it was honestly much more fun than dungeon grinding.
>and it was honestly much more fun than dungeon grinding.
Still is.
Sex with Ryne before the thread dies and Dragoons survive enrage with their jumps.

Maybe Dragoon was truly the endwalker all along

UNIIIIIIIIIQUE
SOOOOOOOOOOUL
Doing potd has made me realize how common enemies just flat out having dog shit buggy abusable AIs is, there are mobs in there who will literally stand still and stare at you if you don't get within their melee range
anon learns about sound aggro
Wrong, talking about the plants that are all over 190-200 that make the entire set a joke because they do nothing to you whatsoever on a ranged job besides a cast they do every 20 seconds even though they have auto attacks and a conal aoe and will move towards you if you LOS them
>Anon too moronic to understand blind enemies are blind and only react to sound
Wait till he gets to Eureka and learns some enemies get triggered by spellcasting lmao.
I have full +2 gear for 4 jobs including physeos, cerberus mount, lone hero, necromancer, azure and omega, card mount, etc etc etc.. I win
>endbryo doesn't understand the different kinds of aggro in this game
lmfao
>moronic ape that has never gotten past floor 80
There are also multiple mobs you can cheese by forcing them to do their rear conal they do if you stand behind them, over and over and over and over without them auto attacking because their AI is moronic
Last free tip from someone who actually plays this game, next one will cost you
Are we still on page 10!?
HOOOOOOME
RIDIIIING HOOOOOOME
More Gaia next thread
