I miss Heavensward. FFXIV has gone to shit.

The only time I think "Oh please no" is if I'm SCH and the rest of the party is as follows: WAR, DRK, AST

And that's only because I hate healing through living dead.

Questions for ya'll.

>1. Are you not wanting to play XIV now until expansion because of the changes

>2. Hyped for your main?

>3. Do you feel the customization for Hrothgar/Viera was significant

>4. Do you think Viera ears should have motion or remain static.

Hey, looks cool. Love the robot; reminds me of DFO mechanics.

Mr Happy wants to be the official SE mouthpiece for FFXIV because it gets him exclusive content he can use to make videos. He sucks Yoshi's cock relentlessly. He hates leaks because it means he can't make worthless speculation videos where he talks about nothing for 20 minutes for sweet ad revenue.

Will there ever be an option to turn off others glamours for my clients similar to turning off gauss barrel?

That shuts off ALL voices dum dums it's been six years how can there not be a separate option by now.

How much do I charge a bunny for sex on 1st day of release

No, the ears may as well be made out of plastic. There are hats that have more animation bones than Viera ears.

why has no one made a rotation guide thing since we've seen all the dnc tool tips?

So I started xiv recently and the only problem is that I resent I have to type in my password, hit play, watch the rating and squeenix shit, then hit start, then select my character.

Logs don't tell them anything about you. What if you're some tranny who does that awful fake high pitch voice that constantly cracks. I certainly couldn't stand to play with someone like that.

there are like 5 items that dye well, all the other have garbage colour distribution or just get all of the same colour
its more likely we get other coloursets that fit better

Lol goodbye BRD, keep the bench warm.

Wasn't particularly planning to fantasia into one but kinda disappointing still.

We don't have all of them, also you'll have to build DNC rotation around other players not just yourself. Other than that it's extremely simple - main combo > procs off main combo > fan OGDs that proc off the main combo > fan procs, use dances on cooldown, use flourish on cooldown to go into procs faster.

You were just a number to inflate the company leaders ego. you did good

No you sperged out

obsessed

There's quite a few female voices like that.
Nobody ever deals with femroes long enough to notice, but a lot of them have the thing where the voices with good emote sounds have terrible battle cries and the ones with great battle cries have fairly bad emote noises. Never pick "shonen protag seiyuu" femroe voice, ever, or I will break your neck.

None of the jobs themselves make me go "Oh fuck no" but the first pull you can tell who's gona be shit.
>Tanks that pull one pack
>healers that only heal
>DPS that dont AoE
You know, things like that. If I had to pick one I'd say bards. Fuckers always need to attack while Im doing the pull and I swear try to take mobs from me.

However I do really like MNK WHM and NIN. They just always seem the most competent.

I don't often say this, but yikes

Need advice. Is it worth moving servers for better ping or better players? I'm on Tonberry but I'm an americuck, I feel like I have too much latency for raids, but japs play better than NA trannies. Game is unfun with such high ping though, do I just go back to NA? Which is the comfiest server?

Attached: 1558151928277.png (800x1248, 1.11M)

That isn't nearly all the tooltips. But basically the rotation works like this:
You have two 2-step combos, one for AoE and one for single target.

The combo steps are guaranteed to link into each other, but they each have a 50% chance of giving you a proc which lets you use a more powerful version of the step right afterwards. These upgraded versions themselves have a 50% chance of giving you a feather on your gauge, which you can spend on OGCD attacks, which also have a 50% chance of upgrading to a more powerful version upon use.

is there a more based primal than susano?

>MCH robot takes 6 seconds to attack the target after using the skill to summon it
>the 20 second counter starts regardless
So the actual duration of the damage being done is 14 seconds, not 20

>Never pick "shonen protag seiyuu" femroe voice
Implying i'm weeb enough to know what this sounds like

WILD

Yes because they are now rid of some fucking faggot.

>Devs don't like the bunnies because they want them to look manly, but they end up looking like cats with bunny ears.
>Fans want fucking kid bunnies, which isn't gonna fly.
I'm surprised they didn't compromise by either making a beastly new race that isn't Viera but is also rabbit themed or just keep bunny boys fairly tall but give them "softer" faces than the other races aside from the mandatory old man face.

healers have to focus on heals if tanks do big pulls, especial if they're retarded with mitigation

Same stuff for drk fray summon.

It's the same with bahamut and DRK one

Speaking of big pulls, I really hope DRK's either don't lose or get a suitable replacement for Dark Arts + Abyssal Drain spam
That combo combined with the billions of ways to snap generate mana made AoE tanking as DRK a joy, it'd be super shit if they took it away completely

>unequip my job stone

You don't have to be a weeb to know which voice sounds like a little boy screaming.

Only in leveling dungeons. At 50/60/70 Healers shouldn't even have to use a single healing gcd after the initial regen.

Nah, the ability preview proved how dumb they are when handling the game. Turning it into WoW 2.0

>No, but I don't particularly care for either
>If tails can have motion so can ears

It's ridiculous. Just the animation takes 2 seconds, the robot spawns and does its animation and loses 2 seconds and uses the next 2 to get to the target and actually punches the target for the first time at 12-13 second mark.
And I can already see that in 5.1 they're gonna shorten animation times. I think that did it for dragoon jump animations in SB.

dance has an inherent PBAOE nuke and puts up damage buff on you and your partner. Technical dance hits harder and gives damage up to everyone. Technical and Standard buffs stack.

no it isn't, bahamut starts firing off about a second after he appears, provided you're firing off spells and/or enkindles
the only thing that lags bahamut is if you force him to run around, at which point he has an aneurysm and stands there staring at the sky for 10 seconds before doing anything

0.1% of faggots wanted male viera to begin with

Feels like you'd do a sloppy job.

Shotafags should not only be ignored, but usually the exact opposite of what they want should be done instead.

Which you could be forgiven for, because holy shit that face is neotenous.

theres still hope, maybe elidibus can posses his dead body after zenos steals his own body back

If basically said the only thing holding them back from bunny boys at this point is internal workflow problems that prevent them from implementing any new races at all. If they ever get those fixed, they all but confirmed that male viera would happen, but it's a big "if".

They heard the backlash loud and clear. It has been years since Yoshi has had to make an official producer letter post on the forums to deal with fan concerns, but the combination of genderlocks + no new healer essentially forced him.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

I feel bad since you wasted tomestones for those

Yes, you have two special actions which cause you to start dancing, your weaponskills get replaced by "steps". Your job gauge displays a series of random steps you have to execute, like a QTE. You press the steps in the correct order and get a buff or do a big attack.

someone give me a quick summary of what each of these gods do

The problem is that every part of your character is a model. The head, chest, arms, etc. And every time you equip gear on one of those parts, that's a different model. You have equipment A arms model, equipment B arms model, equipment A head model, equipment B head model, and so on. So when you change gear or glamours, you're not just putting on that armor, the game is literally swapping out a different model chest or arms or legs or what have you. And so the FFXIV team, whenever they implement a new race, have to make models for EVERY PIECE OF GEAR IN THE GAME. And as the game continues to add new gear in over time that's even more gear that would have to be models for any new race in the future.

>When people have to datamine a benchmark to answer basic questions

WoWfag here, are there any WoWfags that went to FFXIV that can give me a quick rundown on the game, if it's similar to WoW at all? I'm interested in giving it a shot. I can't stand WoW anymore because of war/titanforging, mythic+ dungeons, and some other design issues.

NIN still has scouting exclusively too. Unless they are removing Scouting and Maiming, they should have just given Scouting to Dancer. It doesn't make sense to have 2 entire sets of gear for every tier when only 1 job can use each of them. Either give DNC Scouting and then add a Maiming DPS in 6.0, or remove Scouting and Maiming altogether and just have DRG use Striking and NIN use Aiming.

Not him but as an AST myself I hate AST/AST lineups. When I queue into 24-mans or 8-mans without a co-healer I never queue as AST.

It's not improbable, he created a leaker boogeyman to fight and get good boy points with Yoshida that way.
But wouldn't he post them elsewhere? Since we fucking hate his guts.

I thought it was pretty rad that we got to see WAR use it's Deliverance and Defiance abilities together, it clued us in on the loss of dps stance before the other tanks too.

sounds like you will be happier over here >>>/xivg/

I still got 2 classes I want to level before then. MCH is so fucking boring at lower levels, but I enjoy the end game playstyle. I keep thinking maybe I'll just buy the autolevel but I'm not that dumb, not yet.

In this case it's all just to give the media/"influencers" something to talk about. It sucks for users because there's zero reason why SE can't just release all the information themselves, they do it solely to maintain a network of shills. They give certain people exclusive information which they can use to make monetized videos/articles, and in exchange those people shill the new expansion. It's a very efficient system for SE but boy it sucks for us.

13yr Mythic Raodong WoWfag here, swapped in December.

Think of literally content in WoW and how it always feelings lacking in some aspect. FFXIC has everything WoW has but actually fleshed out and well presented.

There is genuinely far too much to cover.

WAR is getting a 900 potency attack, more AOE, and some sort of interesting looking buff.

I still don't understand how it is in the shed.

Free trial up to level 35. Free heavensward expansion with base game until June 27th. Free heavensward and stormblood expansion with Shadowbringers, but they don't unlock until July 2nd when Shadowbringers launches.

finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/The_Twelve

DUDE WHAT IF WE LOCKED HAIR TO FACE AND ONLY GAVE 2 HAIR TYPES PER FACE AND ONLY HAD 4 FACES LOOOOOOOOL

every tank has aoe combos now

No one is in the Shed, and if people try to put jobs there they can go fuck themselves.

Byregot should be 12, he's clearly the strongest. Ask any crafter.

The fact that Dancer doesn't use Scouting is weird as hell. Scout gear fits their aesthetic better and is basically the same stats anyway, and both are support jobs.

You're biggest possible hurdle will be the mandatory Main Story Quests. But if you like FF animu plots then you'll enjoy it (mostly).

We know from modding though that that's not entirely true. Most of the races share body models which are just slightly modified using algorithmic scaling and changes to animation posture on the rigs. When they make a new piece of gear for female Midlanders, it automatically works on all female races except Lalafell. All they have to do is check for any obvious errors caused by stretching and the like, then modify the base model accordingly. It doesn't add that much extra work. The only real extra work is caused if they need to modify gear specifically to work with a new race's features, e.g. changing a helmet so Viera ears don't clip. That is when they are forced to make new models, and that's also why the majority of headgear won't be functional for Viera/Hrothgar at launch.

AST are usually abysmal in random duty finder groups, but amazing in statics and such. In roulettes and such they rarely use any cards or use them right, rarely AoE and often just stand there overwhelmed.

Because at the end of the day, it's still just Fell Cleave: The Job, while every other tank gets something cool

What DNC and GNB weapons might look good of the ones we can currently pre-farm for?

the endgame is trash and unrewarding, but everything up to that point has very good production values. You'll still unsub after you finish all the relevant content, but until that point, the game feels amazing.

People always complain about the 2.5s gcd but it's only an issue at first. You barely feel it later on due to all of the oGCDs you have to hit, especially on DPS.

That part's frustrating for sure, but it's more than that. The LL was an absolute shitshow, from the sound issues, to horrible interpreting, to fuckups like AST cards having the wrong names in the job actions trailer. It's doubly frustrating because it feels like there are legitimately good things to get hype about in ShB but it's presented in a really shitty way.

>join a seiryu clear party for kicks
>3 rdms and a sam
>none were over 5k before the cutscene on any pull

>no materia slotted

That's usually not a "huge" detriment in normal content as long as the person can still play their job correctly. Of course it's always better, but I've done Ex trails and raids with Tanks/Healers that don't have all their shit slotted and they can still get through it fine. I think it's more about people not realizing the boost they get from materia rather than outright being bad.

yeah, I want to see some sch tooltips. whats that crit buff it got do?

If you're a raider, it's great, because it guarantees you any loot drops for your class.
And that's why it sucks for everyone else: your exclusive garbage dilutes the pool. On the chance healing gear drops, a healer has to roll against their cohealer- meanwhile you never share.

Few companies are as professional as they try to appear. Blizzard is (or was) one of the biggest development studios in the west and yet even after 14 years of WoW, it still feels like it's being developed by total amateurs. Most players of ongoing games WISH they could get poorly translated dev streams with botched audio. Instead they get nothing or even get told to just stop whining.

He looks so much sadder.

It looks that way at first but you can see he draws The Spear and it says "The Arrow", but the next card he draws is another Spear.

so no ones gonna reply? alright

The AST at one point draws Bole, Spear, Spear. The text reads, Spear, Arrow, Arrow. It's not a "your next card" mechanic.

the whole rotation is juggling rng, they might as well rename the job to jester

It was right every time before the last card though. It could be that they have a new draw that gives you the opposite of whatever you would have got. Ewer to Spire, Spear to Arrow, Bole to Balance.

Fair enough.
I only watched the trailer once, and I was just musing on a reason why that might have been the case.

quantity of content is much less than WoW but overall quality of the content is better. (as in visual/aesthetic/sound/music/QA)

Classes are more difficult to play than in WoW so learning curve/time is much greater. Raid designs bend towards mechanic execution with a lot of one hit/insta-death or wipe mechanics, rather than DPS/gear checks like in WoW

I play both WoW/FFXIV and alternate between the two when each game gets a content patch.

good taste in tops

Not him but seriously? Is that

>youtube.com/watch?v=Ht1dQP6k4Xc
Is that some joke that I don't get or is there a legit reason why he spams blizzard 1?

When he stops making hour long videos "speculating" about shit he already knows but can't talk about.

But there's no decision to make. RDM is literally press 1 then 2. If 3 lights up press it instead of 1.

Never played the game so I don't know how to interpret these scores. It says "very high", but I had screentearing out the ass during the benchmark and I was literally watching a slideshow during the scene where there was a large battle with fucktons of shit going on. Can I realistically expect this game to be playable with that score?

>rather than DPS/gear checks like in WoW
But there are plenty dps/gear checks in XIV, some fights have many at the same time like seiryu, it might be a joke but it's true.

Least fun class to play with by far would be BLM. When they aren't killing me from spread mechanics, they're off in narnia missing heals. Every so often I find myself fighting them off from melee positions in pug strats. Most of their mains are some combo of primadonna and autistic, so they're content to make you fight their job in addition to the boss.

Limited sample size but I don't think I've ever seen a truly awful AST. The shitter healers gravitate to WHM and SCH.

By average I meant "medium". It'd be 30fps probably.

Lower some of the effects then.

I have 2,6k what's the problem?
I've been playing the game on high without problems and there's no reason this expansion should change that. XIV is hardly the game that justifies a hardware upgrade.

and if it doesn't light up then you have to change the rotation, every time, the difference between a high dps rdm and a low dps rdm is how much rng procs they got

Not sure what DC you are playing, but awful ASTs are a dime dozen over here. Even, I rather see a WHM over an AST in pugs.

Are you offering?

whats the most effective way to level up tanks and healers? I'm planning to level up a WHM and PLD but I'm still lvl 10 and 40.

DPS checks in FF14 are shitter filters rather than real DPS checks. If you can execute your rotation while doing mechanics, you pass. There's always tons of leeway even when everyone has outdated gear.

Heavensward had real DPS checks but everyone hated it so they haven't done that since, not even in Ultimate.

Yes. The only variant in RDM damage is rng because the job is so simple that player skill is irrelevant.

Or the simpler explanation is they got it wrong. When you use Minor Arcana the text slot is reserved for telling you what you have at present, and it makes sense that they continue to tell you what you have drawn in text form in addition to the visual. If it were a new draw, it'd have a new animation, and frankly a new draw would add bloat and compete with redraw, which is confirmed to still be in.

This statement might not be too far from reality. Most XIV players i've met never played other MMO or FF before.

Some specific settings like tessellation can tank your fps at times, you'll have to do some tweaking.

In most content there's only 8 players though so it's no big deal if large crowds aren't smooth.

A new draw would take the place of Spread or Royal Road which are both gone.

>lacking elementary grade reading comprehension

Depression is hell of a thing

the whole class is rng, with other classes you learn your rotation and do them, with rdm you always have to work off whatever procs you get
manipulating the rng with micro managing is what's hard and is never properly explained

Is it true that Bane is gone and were just getting an AoE DoT or two itself?

It makes me sad how much your character in the benchmark moves yet we all know that in game cutscenes will never have our characters move this much.

Speaking of retainers, now that Squadrons and Trusts exist, it's only a matter of time before we can play with our waifu retainers, right?

Again, the animation was of Draw. The only card manipulating skills without unique animations (or any at all) are undraw ones. And again, it would compete with the shuffle mechanic since you'd essentially have 2 shuffles which is not how this game's design works.

And then fanta if it is fucked.

Unlikely because of retainers being able to play as Gatherers.

See, there's the problem. You get access to higher explorations and better rewards when your retainers (i)LV is higher.
Also each gatherer is different from each other in rewards from ---side Exploration and quick ventures. War/Magic retainers are different from gatherers too, obviously.

With Royal Road gone (thank fuck) there's less need for Time Dilation or Celestial Opposition, since you'd save those primarily for optimal card setups. I'll miss that angle a little, but I'd rather have other toys to play with.

Probably because they don't want a AST + DNC combo to be busted

they seriously cant stop trying to ruin the fun of DRK.
I fucking give up on DRK.
I knew I shouldnt have placed any hopes in DRK.

People didnt like the feeling of half the cards being useless and sitting around for 30-60 seconds hoping it doesnt screw you again, so all cards give DPS increases now and are assigned to entire roles or something.

Within a few weeks of Shadowbringers dropping, there better be a shortening mod for Veena Viera. They're far too tall for the look most people want to go for.

I use it when I want to do a turbo pull on dungeons but if the healer is shit and dont realize that he needs to pop his cd I die.

What I heard was that the whole system being "fishing for AoE Balance" wasn't something the devs wanted. Especially with AoE Ewer/Spire being a possible result. The new system seems to be mostly single target cards with the attached symbols feeding into a party buff effect.

>Kinda, I only just got to Heavensward and really want to try DNC and GNB so I'm tempted to just wait where I am (since I have RDM at 60) and grab them so I can get some dungeon experience AND level them to 70 via Stormblood's story rather than having to rush to level them to 70 and having no idea of how their kit works even in a simple environment

Eureka being locked into instances was a bad idea. They should have been open world but connected for all the data center with multiple versions like at the start of Expansions to alleviate stress on zones. It needs to be open world so it's something to do whilst killing time waiting for other things in Party Finder etc. That's what made old relic quests more enjoyable instead of being trapped in an instance.

Whoever says that isn't in their right mind. The actual, gameplay, content of XIV quests is abysmal. While some do have interesting dialogue and stories all of them are just killing enemies that barely fight back, picking stuff off the ground or talking to NPCs.

A little jiggle never hurt.

There has never been a mod that changed height for any race. That would require completely remodeling the body and animations, beyond the skill of any regular modder.

It doesn't update unless you close the duty finder window and re-open.

I guess this is a case of "You think you do but you don't." since you obviously don't want a viera.

Pretty strong
Imagine that paired with AST/SCH skills

It looks like you give 3 cards in a cycle to players, and then at the end you use it to provide some group buff too.

Seems kind of based. WHM is starting to skirt that line of viability.

All I want for Viera is better hair options. All the current ones for them look like dogshit.

I played AST since 3.0, and the two things that always bothered me most about it was the AoE RR and RNG padding. The ideal AST design is to have fewer but more meaningful choices that you have to decide on the fly. Choosing between 2 good options to fit the immediate situation is the better design than choosing between good and bad, because the latter's easier.

1. Yes. My sub ran out yesterday and I'll renew it ~ a week before Shadowbringers
2. Yes. WHM.
3. It's fine. I never cared about spending hours in character creation screen.
4. Floppy ears should have motion, erect ears should be static. Both should sway a bit to the sides while moving.

Please understand.

My hope is that with everyone getting additional healing+ skills and tanks and dps even getting healing abilities, that the raids are actually going to start hitting harder this time.

i did, and even saw DPS in need

Darkside is now activated and extended by a single target or AoE (Edge/Flood) that cost 3000 MP.
If you use TBN and the shield is fully consumed, you get Dark Arts, meaning the next Edge/Flood you cast has no MP cost.

It's basically a way to ensure using TBN doesn't cause threat/dps loss.

what are the naming conventions for viera?

eorzea is so backwards they use the imperial system.

No he didn't.

1. Kinda. I'll probably just clean up the remaining EX/savage stuff I never did.
2. PLD: Fuck yes. A little sad we didn't get a res but oh well.
3. Mostly. Hrothgar hairstyles on facetype sucks, but it's fairly easy to make good-looking, unique hrothgar so I don't mind as much. Don't give a shit about viera.
4. Couldn't care less.

I'm in the same boat except my MCH is still level 60. I'm just going to hope that they change Eureka to be near-soloable in Shadowbringers.

Shame about it all being so high level. I would love TBN to be lower. Either way all tanks and healers are looking up.

Swahili names, so for females you'd go for things like Mchumba or Chausiku.

we don't know
at all
hopefully there will be a post about it on the forums like they did with au ra

>fake ears with no fluff or definition
>have to take up the headgear slot for glamour

No thanks. I'll just have to wait for SE to get it right in the next game.

a bit less than a meter

Both sides are arguing over the wrong shit.
It's not an argument of difficulty.
Anyoen who tries to reach 95 percentile on RDM knows the RNG is technically 1 of the 2 difficult parts of RDM.

But the reason its not "difficult" is because its not punishing.
people who "lol just balance the bars" dont know when they are fucking up, because they dont get punished for the small things they do wrong. the difference in DPS when played wrong can be at little as 1%, where as other jobs, even slightly being wrong, by the tiniest bit, is usually at LEAST a 10% loss, if not greater.

Also, most RDMs start off with a GCD, rather than an oGCD, which actually tends to be a loss of 1 GCD by the end of most fights. (idk why, but it is.) most RDMs dont know this. This is an example of little things people dont actually know, but arent really punished for.

Probably a week before launch on the official forums, that's how it was with Au Ra.

I must commend you on your stellar taste my friend, that is indeed scarily similar.

you get the idea

>European-inspired
>burger units
I don't get it

The races rava and veena are indian words. But the name Fran is spanish so who knows.

>burger measurments
Why.

What gear is this?

Americlap education

the fact that you even have to ask is tragic

same reason we get fire 1 2 3 4

>wants the race who one of their defining characteristic is their tall stature to be shorter
why? just play something else

Viera were never "amazonian". And Feol exist.

i named my character Veis, in preparation of viera. veis is a viera from FFTA. i just can't figure out how to pronounce it.

It makes the world feel more primitive, like medieval times.

Fran also has a fake Icelandic accent, is voiced by an Austrian, and the other names sound noridc with weird pronunciations, Mjrn, Kjtn.

How do you make yourself to pay monthly for this shit?

"Vice"
thats my guess at least

they should be taller
i'm disappointed that they seem to have pussed out solely due to them being "taller" than every race if you count their ears as height
probably were worried about them clipping doors

you dont use the "cant die" buttons as a reaction.
you use them pre-emptively, before the boss uses the tank buster, knowing you're better off saving CDs for other tank buster/phases.

example, in Alexander O12S, the boss makes u swap tanks, and hits you with a tank buster you CAN NOT survive with stacking CDs. You can stack every CD DRK has, and not live. You MUST use living dead.
You know when the attack is coming up, so you use it pre-emptively.
(WARs have to time it mid animation, due to how short Holmgang is)

If you have a PLD they can only invuln once.
WAR can holmgang, then DRK can LD, and then WAR can holmgang again.
due to short recast, DRK can use LD for another tank buster (punishing heat) earlier, to save another CD, to stack for another punishing heat, w/o having to go into tank stance.
PLD cant do that.
So WAR and DRK were great for extending the soft enrage. (This insta kill tank buster is the soft enrage. cant survive more than 2, unless you bring a WAR, which u can survive 3, extending the fight a bit longer.)

Reminder that the Japanese just straight up uses "meters" ingame/in-universe. is just something Koji came up with using his autism.

How is using Fleche/Contre instead of Veraero/thunder a dps increase?

In FFXII all the viera has spanish names.

Except the Feol don't exist because Feolthanos doesn't. Fucking retard.

yes it was vice or vase. vice sounds good.

It's just Koji's way of saying "meters", that stupid hack.

"Vase"

Nigga, this game wouldn't even be around if it wasn't for Koji. Yoshi needs to give someone else producer and director.

if you're not doing extreme/savage/ultimate then invulns don't serve a purpose. In such content they're used as a typical cooldown (like Sentinel) to just survive a hit or to survive through unsurvivable strategies/mechanics such as taking two mechanics worth of damage instead of one.

Doesn't matter, it sounds cooler.

I'm playing a fantasy game, i don't want to see the international system units on my fucking fantasy game.

is that really how its pronounced or is it your take? it's either vice or vase.

Starting a new character

What will be the optimal way to level a GNB at launch/EA?
HoH?

>Feol
jesus christ, end this meme, feol were a cross breed between aegyl and a viera in FFXII Revenent Wings, they had shorter ears but were otherwise the exact same size as regular viera

doesn't HoH give garbage EXP? I plan to just do daily roulettes and spam dungeons

>tanks doing hoh
*Laughs in instant queue pop for dungeons*

You need to get to 61 first to unlock HoH.
But it depends on dungeon queues. There will likely be a healer shortage in the first few weeks of 5.0, so even tanks might have difficulty getting into 60-70 dungeons. In that case just to HoH.

>people going on about what jobs they will play and what races they will fanta into
>still playing cat nin since the end of ARR
I guess it gets less fancy stuff with ShB, but I am content.

>tfw when they weren't just this plus bunny ears
Muh tol fags ruin everything.

The easiest way to show this w/o parsers, is to go into Leviathan EX.
start off with a hard cast/swift/dual cast. Before he becomes untargetable, see how many GCDs you get off, while trying to put fleche/contra on CD.
Also remember fleche being the higher potency option you have.

Now, start off with fleche, and make sure u had dual cast ready prior to pull.
you'll notice you get an additional GCD off, and have fleche on CD sooner.

>he thinks tanks are going to get instant queues at the start of ShB
yeah you and every other gunbreaker, buddy

Saw someone mention Living Dead might be gone in ShB. Any chance this is true?

They did say they were wanting to eliminate synergies between jobs that made them seem mandatory. Bene + LD seem like a strong candidate.

>he thinks he will be getting instant queues as a tank in shb

Someone didn't play HW on release.

That won't be the case if everyone's levelling GNB and going full retard over the healer changes

>There will likely be a healer shortage in the first few weeks of 5.0
I don't think you have any idea how bad things will be. Healer will be way more in demand than Tanks for DF content through the whole of ShB.

If there was ever a game's localization that reeks of "trying too hard", it's definitely this one.

>amazonian
dude, they were just tall and slender, that's not amazonian you retard, unless you just consider tall girls to be amazons in which case lmao @ ur life

>using Deep Dungeons to level tanks and healers

Why do so many people do this? You're not gonna learn anything about your job in there where everything dies in 2 secs. Just do Roulettes and Dungeons ffs.

I think healers will be fine

I doubt it. People said the same shit about tanks/healers in SB and it ended up being fine after the initial rush was over.

MUH TANKXIETY

And you have play tank or dps yourself to avoid dnctrannies and squall fanboy tanks

>no new healer
>hundreds of other lvl 60 GNB's in the queue

Good luck doing dungeons to level.

Oh sorry let me add 10 or 20 seconds to the queue

I think they'll be fine too, but that doesn't matter if 80% of healers go full retard over the changes. Either way they'll be in demand.

Badly informed since dps cucks spread everywhere potd is the fastest way to level or scared to play the role.

Since there's no new healer and everyone and their mother will be playing dancer or gunbreaker, healers should have the fastest queues

Good luck finding those healers that will levelling from 70-80 instead.

They go full pants on head retarded with healer. Little to no changes to the classes, taking away even more of the DPS and have them 'focus on healing'. That literally means you have no way of speeding shit up anymore.

I got bored of dungeons ages ago, deep dungeons might not be much better but it still is.

Tank is the easiest role. As a tank main I found it harder to do dps stuff

>there are players who literally won't tank because it makes them anxious
ffs if you guys can't even play a video game, how the fuck do you function in day to day life?

How are they planning on balancing that shit? Its either going to be complete mandatory or completely shit.

How can you say this when you haven’t seen any of the changes to healers?

It is but some people claim to have tankxiety.

The changes are being overblown by autists such as yourself, who mistake your own opinions for the opinions of the entire playerbase. 90% of healers in this game don't even touch their DPS skills to begin with.

Please respond

1. I'm still subbed both because I have my virtual drunkard's mancave to protect, and because I'm leveling crafters (and a few other jobs) for once. I also feel like I should get even more playtime in as SB SCH before their entire skillset gets changed up in ShB.
2. Both hyped and scared for the aforementioned SCH.
3. Only attempted to make a bunny so far, but I'm not seriously considering switching from my catgirl so I didn't really pay that much attention to how much variety they have compared to other races
4. I care less about how much they move and more about having the option to have one straight and one floppy ear. Perfect symmetry is boring.

100% true. you can just run in tank stance get shit done

Then why would they level a tank?

It's how it's pronounced. But it's your name and character, it's entirely up to you.

All three healers still have aoe (see Art of War). That's enough to keep dungeons moving along quickly.

then that's how i'll say it.

deep dungeon teaches you jobs better than roulettes do. The former actually teaches you how to improvise cause pulls happen randomly at unpredictable parts of your rotation. The latter just breeds people with a very rote and shallow understanding of their job. The kind that jump off the arena if the pull happens 1s early cause now they dont know how to do their 'opener' anymore.

Looks like the set from arboretum hard.

its faster to level dps in deep dungeons so they're not wrong, for tanks duty finder is faster though

Completionism. Had no intention of playing tank when I took all three tanks through PoTD and HoH to get the associated achievements.

Turn on fucking darkside you potd drk shitter

having more responsabilities doesnt mean its hard to smash your aggro combo properly every other minute

Attached: no.jpg (1280x720, 65K)

Dungeons don't teach you shit for Raids anyway, user. Dungeons are basically their own thing.

I highly doubt that. Most things in deep dugeons (leveling, not the higher/lower floors die in a handful of GCDs and there's a bunch of walking between rooms. There's no room for getting a handle on any kind of rotation.

This is some bullshit. I've done a lot of potd/hoh and all it does is teach people to spam a basic attack combo or aoe since nothing has a lot of hp in the farmable areas.

>claim to have tankxiety
not a thing, they just don't want to play tanks because they would rather play dps or healers

Tanking is like being the executive of a large company. Your actual daily work is easy, but the decisions you make are critical. Making one bad call or choice can get your whole party killed, or put your entire company in the red for a year.

. Are you not wanting to play XIV now until expansion because of the changes
Nah I still want to clear stuff and obtain someglamours
. Hyped for your main?
>SMN/SCH/DRK
FUCKING YES but worried SMN got dumbed down badly
. Do you feel the customization for Hrothgar/Viera was significant
Can't say, haven't bothered with benchmark since I don't plan to fanta
. Do you think Viera ears should have motion or remain static.
Motion

They're wrong because leveling through dungeons is the fastest. What makes potd so appealing to dps is the queues since they don't have to wait 15~30mins to get into a dungeon run so in the end it's faster for them.
If a dps queues for dungeons with a tank/healer they'll level way faster than by doing potd.

Tell that to them, not to me. I'm a healer/tank main. Tanking is a fucking joke but people confuse grabbing the next pack of mobs in a dungeon to leading a group and tank cucks who try to feel special by overblowing their role.

>not a thing
Google it then, you'll see a fuckton of people who are afraid of tanking because they get anxious when playing the role.
