Thank you kindly

why is dragoon affected by battle litany but bard isnt by battle voice

I meant now but I realized they're a clunky mess so I'll wait for SB (why are there two fucking expansions abbreviated SB) to make one, especially since I'm not interested in new jobs anyway. Any opinion on SMNs?

How can we being passively agressive with dumb team mates?

>DRG, tanking again the floor? Good job champ

>WAR you're dps is pretty high you champ, a shame that we all died, good aggro on healer tho
>BLM knows that staying in aoe grants buff
>SCH your dps is so high that even the tank has died, good one

Any more helpful tips for retards?

Learn English first, then find something better to do than roleplay as a 30 year old woman

The only mistake I see is the one on the 5th row, any more mispelings?

what's wrong with that
so BRD and DRG can keep playing together like god intended
Don't do this

Being in the first line, and misspelling since you asked. If you're an actual ESL I'm curious, what's your first language?
I realize the irony of this sounding passive aggressive but that's not my intention

Is there a way to see overall job representation in savage fights this tier? I've tried looking through FFLogs but I'm either blind, dumb, or both and can't quite tell how to see this.
I can see how many parses were logged per job, but that doesn't quite give the info I'm looking for and it's just looking through the past 2 weeks from what I can tell.

Funnily enough the most iconic "dps tank" that is WAR actually has the best concept of tank/dps stance.

>he doenst use MO-macros
healing in this game unironically is the easiest thing to do.

Aye it's sad since WAR was the only stance in both dungeons and raid that could actually use it's tank stance for mitigation and healing. However, it's not all bad: Equilibrium can now be used a heal without the need for a stance, Thrill of Battle gained the 20% increase healing buff that Defiance used to give (though it's duration was nerfed to 10s from 20s) and Nascent Flash should generate Bloodbath levels of HP recovery. The changes to tanks was largely a buff to PLD, though it received some nerfs as well to compensate (Cover costing oath gauge and no longer reducing damage by 20%)

Overall Warrior seems to have recovered it's self sustain (or rather can now more often use it) while still being largely the same from SB, just with new "big dick" versions of decimate and fell cleave.

Okay, now they have to make encounter design that actually makes people heal.

Right now you can get away with 3-5% of your GCDs being heals and the rest being DPS over the majority of most encounters and still have everyone living. This is not acceptable.

Western culture encourages people to speak their minds more. It's why Japanese companies will often hire one to be the "Loud American", in order to have an employee that is willing to tell their boss how retarded they are.

That and the West currently has a huge problem with outrage culture.

Yes, I know that, in fact I was implying that. That's half of the issue. OGCD heals are really fucking strong.

Enemies still don't hit hard enough to make you GCD heal more than 5% of the time. This is a real issue if you're expecting healers to be healing more often.

cope

Okay then stop prefacing those kinds of posts with stuff like "actually makes people heal"

I'll believe it when I see it. As it is, unless they really ramp up the damage in raids or move away from hyper-scripted fights, healers are still going to have 50%+ downtime.

Do MSQ and Alliance roulette retard

Healing design in XIV is based on two assumptions:
1. The healer is an idiot who does not know how to heal efficiently
2. The party are all idiots who are constantly making mistakes and taking unnecessary damage that needs to be healed

In case it wasn't obvious by now: XIV is not designed for the 6% of players who clear hardcore raids or the even smaller fraction of those who hyperfocus on optimization. Healing is not designed with under the assumption that everyone plays perfectly and plans out their entire GCD script for the full length of a 10 minute fight because they know exactly what the boss will be doing at every individual second.

What is the best scenario here?

>healers now need to heal more due to higher damage
>your tank dies to autos in leveling dungeon runs

>damage is almost the same
>all the good healers quit out of boredom and swap to DPS/tank

So what's the general consensus on Stormblood? Storywise HW is the popular one, but what about the content? Did SB do that one better than HW?

I'm so sorry.

Hey man, hold up. I'm a healer main and I hate the fact that, as a healer, I'm supposed to spend more time DPSing than healing. I think that's fucking retarded, if I wanted to spend all of my time DPSing I would have rolled a DPS.

You realize these low-effort shitposts is why I said that

above is what should happen, below is what will happen

What do you use WASD and your number keys for then?

Idk but I wanna cum on that cat

i still have ASD bound to movement but i use the same M1+2 for forwards movement. i have the entire qwerty row bound to skills

why is it always the red mage who dies multiple times during fights?

I love both of them story and content wise

First one is the best scenario, unironically.
Most healers will eventually adapt.
imo there needs to be far more roomwide damage, throw out small dots on everyone that work like a Baby's first Almagest that force healers to use their aoe heal not just once, but twice.

The MSQ for most of Stormblood was pretty bad. The best part was the Azim Steppes, and the writer for that part is now the main writer for ShB, so that's nice.

Does the second video have game sounds at 1% or something? I feel like I can hear them in my soul.

Story: HW
Dungeons: HW
8-man: HW
24 man: SB
Trials: HW

Gotta say SB was pretty fucking shit overall

Are you seriously pushing this meme? Shes been a lead writer since 3.1, including all of Stormblood. She didn't write just the Azim Steppe.
Oda is more than likely still a lead writer right alongside her too.

cringey au ra roleplayer detected

this goes for any class that is percieved as easy, but they think playing the easy class is a replacement for having to actually pay attention to fights

>8-man: HW
Yikes

>let's give each healer a single attack and a single dot

ultimates have been the only redeeming factor

trials and 8 man raids were worse in stormblood, 24 man was better, dungeons about equal, potd had a better lifespan than hoh, stormblood relic was worse because of eureka, but diadem as a whole was probably worse than eureka just for the fact it was pretty much left to die twice. job rotations were generally better in heavensward at least for the ones i played regularly.
I still prefer heavensward.

Good it keeps some wow niggers away.

You did do the dark knight questline in preparation for shadowbringers right? Dont you know, fray is gonna be relevant like eistinien was

SB dungeons shit all over HW
SB 8-man was better gameplay wise but not thematically, until the very end. Nero gives a massive amount of bonus points.

That's the screenshot I posted, you fucking faker.

eureka will be left to die as well

And I'm certain you can provide evidence pointing toward her being involved in more than what she was creditted for, can't you?

Stormblood as a whole was pretty weak. The main scenario didn't really have a good pay off and obviously suffered greatly from being split among 2 areas. It is pretty apparent that they wanted to have a Doma expansion but didn't have enough content and shoe horned in Ala Mhigo. Raids had some good fights, but other than Halicarnassus I won't look back fondly on any of them.I feel like they made the crafting and gathering endgame too easy and didn't give enough rewards out to give incentives for people to keep turning in tokens for anything other than gil that's still worthless. Eureka could use some work too, but I can see version 2.0 being ok if they basically have a Hydatos approach with more to do.
Gear in general this expansion was pretty lazy and didn't seem as cool as some HW sets did as they came out.

I looked up some of the Au Ra lore after playing through the Azim Steppes and I don't know how anyone can want to play one now. They're all actual savages.

not him but coil exists

And? What the fuck does Coil have to do with HW vs SB?

Baldesion was a huge success for them so they'll probably make more of those.

Considering SB is what brought us shit like relics locked behind Eureka, Eureka itself, a lazy PotD rehash and BLU, I'd say HW content was better.

>We'll finally have nice thigh boots without having to open our wallets for the Mogstation outfits
This outweighs any negatives.

JOL: How did you go about writing the main scenario for Stormblood? Did you write the story piece by piece? Did you have key events in your head from the start?

Oda: Myself, Yoshida and Ishikawa carried out a focused three day meeting, and decided the flow of the story. After that, myself and Ishikawa broke it down into parts, and created the plot for the locations we were in charge of. Then we put the two plots together and continued started to add the foreshadowing and smooth any overlaps.

The fights were better. Half the fights in the Alex series weren't even boss fights. Remember the room that literally just spawned like 8 waves of adds?

Boring and dull, Zenos was really interesting as a concept but he got too popular and now they're LITERALLY parading around his dead corpse because he's too marketable to let go. Dungeons were pretty alright, trials were fantastic, raids were nice at first and quickly wore out their welcome. I was hoping ShB would go back to wholly original/new ideas for raids but we're getting Nier shit that doesn't even make sense on top of a Nomura raid that's guaranteed to be a fucking dumpster fire.
Eureka was the worst piece of content they've added, even the Diadem had the good sense to make itself scarce when it was poorly received by 90% of the playerbase. 3.0 AF weapons still look far better and you can get them at half the grind at this point. Anyone who defends Eureka is either delusional to the point of mental illness, or an utter jew who only likes it because of how much the drops cost on the MB.

You are genuinely retarded aren't ya? Split into parts, she's been main scenario writer with Oda since 3.1... Do your own math. To say she literally only did "azim steppe and drk quests" is fucking retarded and ridiculous.

Is there any job that could possibly match the DPS of Samurai? Let alone surpass its parse. And I'm not talking about a Samurai with both Shifu (Mind of the Samurai) and Jinpu (Rush of Battle), boosting attack damage and speed by 12%. I'm not talking about Samurai with Hissatsu (Hidden Technique): Kaiten (Turn the Heavens) boosted Midare Setsugekka (Chaos Slash— Snow, Moon, Flowers) either, and this skill is only usable by one who has mastered the peerless concentration of the warrior's state of mind, doing a total of 1080 potency. Hell, I'm not even talking about a combo using Hissatsu: Kaiten boosted Higanbana (Mourning Flowers), placing a DoT of 3510 potency, using Meikyo Shisui (Standing Water, Perfect Mirror Reflection) to instantly deliver a Kaiten boosted Midare Setsugekka and finishing with Hissatsu: Guren (Crimson Lotus), dealing a total of nearly 5400 potency in the space of a couple of seconds.
No, I'm talking about Samurai possessing the secret technique Hissatsu: Senei (Thousand Blades), a more powerful version of Hissatsu: Guren that does 1250 potency to a single foe, and who has mastered Tsubame-gaeshi, the technique of the REGEND Sasaki Koijiro, enabling him to perform Kaeshi (Reversal) forms of his most powerful abilities, which allows him to unleash his ultimate combo of Kaiten: Higanbana, followed by Hissatsu: Senei in the space between his next move Kaiten: Midare Setsugekka, and finally Tsubame-Gaeshi unleashes Kaeshi: Midare Setsugekka dealing 1200 immediately. Samurai has just done 7040 POTENCY in the LITERAL BLINK of an EYE.

I'm not saying anything like that. I think it's fully possible she only did the Far East as that's a logical way to split things up, especially when in that same interview she said she wrote Susano. But either way she didn't write JUST the Azim Steppe. She's a main scenario writer, and has been for almost 4 fucking years.
What on earth are you talking about? She's in 3.3's and 4.0's credits as a main scenario writer. She was promoted right after 3.0 release. She didn't write just the parts you happened to like.
If by "crediting her" you mean the fucking liveletter slide, that was literally just meant to give an example of some of her story work in through the patches, it's not meant to be an all encompassing list of everything she's done.

The game is a cointoss for being unplayable at the moment. Some runs I get a flawless group who is all on point and I want to commend each and every one of them for not being garbage.

The meme about the average player not being able to walk and chew bubblegum at the same time is distressingly a fact.

Why shouldn't they be seething? This is a red flag of a highest caliber when a dev thinks that by simplifying the game they can attract more players.

I think I like Revenge Twofold the best of any of the boss themes.

You've lost your mind haven't you? I'm literally not saying anything of the sort. You're implying that 5/6 zones were written by one of the writers, and the other one did only one of them.
Regardless, when ShB turns out to be "more of the same" as SB, I'm sure people will be shitposting anyway about how much better it was and that the writer let us all down, and eventually people will be saying "Yeah she was a writer for SB anyway so it was no surprise this was bad."
I sure as fuck will be enjoying the story either way, just like how I love SB and HW.

Revenge Twofold is one of the best boss themes in the series

I honestly was wanting WHM to be more like a Chloromancer.

Until shadowbringers comes to ruin the game and make it the BFA of XIV.

it fucking baffles me that they're applying absolute polar opposite design and balance philosophies to tanks and healers respectively and even going so far as to complain that they don't know what to do with healers when what they're doing with tanks seems to work fine and everyone seems to love it (so far).

Helmets already look bad on roes, I can't imagine how terrible they would look on hrothgar.

>start to try out a healer since I've always been a tank
>level a scholar to 60 3 days before the presentation on role changes
Damn, just my luck again. Guess they want the game to be as unoriginal and monotone as possible. Might as well play a dps since they atleast seem to have some bit of complexity to them instead of making them braindead retarded.

ShB main scenario writer is the same one that wrote at least Crystal Tower, Haurchefant, Matoya, DRK quests and Azim Steppe.
Those are all above average, so there's a lot of potential

They're the tranny race.

i wish we got cool hoods like that

It's not about raiding. Look at tanking stances. They saw that people didn't like using them but failed to understand why. It's not because they cripple your damage (though that's a part of it) but because they provide strictly worse gameplay. DRK is fucking unplayable in Grit. PLD has strictly worse resource generation in Shield Oath (even though that resource is used for defence). Only WAR has good interactions with the tank stance. So instead of making tank stances interesting they just made everyone blue DPS. Instead of making healer optimization more interesting and accessible they just gave every healer ten thousand healing buttons.

oh is the DRK writer doing SHB? it should still be top tier then hopefully

Au Ra only look good in fan art. In game they look either downright weird or the asscrack of uncanny valley.

I loved the Thief stuff. I love this style of speech.

Squadron has a level 53 and 57 dungeon in it, and HoH is only for 61+.

What's the most fun DPS that

ast potencies and card %'s are trash, it's very likely they get shedded over WHM

I love the ROG/NIN quests holy fuck
Jacke and his crew of adorable Miquote and shithead Lala have quickly become some of my favourite
not to mention your Shinobi buddies interract with them often during the NIN quests so you don't just abandon them like many other Job quests abandon their respective class quest NPCs. Only up to 56 but really enjoyable desu.

Our hack covers his basics

Brewmaster doesn't really work in wow either to be fair. It's overpowered as fuck and there's no way of balancing it without it being terrible but I still like the gameplay and ~class fantasy~ of it.

AST had damage buffs in 3.0-3.3 and noone used it over WHM because of how awful the damage and healing was until SE buffed Balance to 20%
Now AST is back to 5%~ish buffs while still having weakest damage and healing out of all healers, WHM might unironically make a return past the prog raiding.

yeah my bad I meant to say you can play HoH 61-70
so Squadron from 15-60, HoH 61-70, Trusts from 71-80

Newniggers whining about muh frogposting don't even know what Boy's Club is dude

>They saw that people didn't like using them but failed to understand why. It's not because they cripple your damage (though that's a part of it) but because they provide strictly worse gameplay.
But that's wrong
>DRK is fucking unplayable in Grit
If as you said "it's not about raiding", then you don't understand that Grit is integral to DRK's Aoe rotation with mobs (ie dungeon content). You get more blood in grit from Blood Price which you can choose to spend on Quietus or Delirium, extra mp could be used to DA Quietus or be used on Blackest Night (you get the point). Grit was the only thing that made DRK good in dungeons at 70.
>PLD has strictly worse resource generation in Shield Oath
PLD has the worst stance because it cost both mp and a GCD to turn off/switch from which was annoying as shit, you're right about resource generation.
>So instead of making tank stances interesting they just made everyone blue DPS
The intention was to correct MT/OT rotations. The central issue with PLD pulling a boss was that you had to completely fuck your rotation to secure aggro. In the case of Warrior lots of it's best tools were tied to the tank stance (Equilibrium, Inner Beast) that's what players didn't like about stances. The aim of removing stance requirements for abilities was to free up player options and not force them to do their OT/MT rotation or gimp their dps/rotation for access to their tank stance tools

its simplicity is probably its biggest downfall desu
if you're used to playing MNK or NIN, SAM and DRG can feel slightly too tame.
SAM makes up for it by having big satisfying large penis dps, and DRG makes up for it a bit by jumps being fun, but you can't fully make up for a lack of inherent complexity (unless, apparently, you have fell cleave. seriously, warrior is boring as fuck outside that one ability and maybe steel cyclone/decimate)

that's when you get hagakure and turn into the shinten swordsman
it takes just enough brainpower to line everything up/not overcap to be fun but not a pain in the ass

Yeah I admittedly should have mentioned I like complex/punishing but not tedious. SAM nukes are a bit nice though. Anyway I'll give SAM another chance

strong competition between au ra and miquote.
i'm expecting viera will also throw a spanner in the works, but they're a little too tall to have the "im a cute little girl" thing going on that trannies seem to flock to

Au ra

I don't think you tried at all.

Would I be gay if I made my character a Viera even though I'm a guy?

well I guess dragoon then
ninja is also too simple and monk is tedious and about to get hit with the retard stick in ShB

Making a good looking au ra isn't hard, it's just that literal retards think bright blue hair with red highlights and heterochromia looks good. Ignore the glowstick I haven't figured out which sword I want to use yet

Right now Lala, but that'll be switching to Hrothgar once that drops and furries are unleashed.

That's the real tragedy we're supposed to prevent - not the destruction of the world but the existence of furries.

Yes because you are insecure enough to ask.

Au Ra

You would only be gay if you enjoy men sexually.

>Would it be possible to post your Viera's character config file? I'd love to do some edits on it. She's gorgeous.

>Sorry that's going to have to be a hard no. I am EXTREMELY uncomfortable with other people making copies or derivatives of my original characters. I'd instead encourage you to explore the character creator because even though it's not SUPER robust, there's lots of room to make something unique and beautiful. I'm sure you'll find the perfect fit for you

――レベル80のクラスクエストでその辺りが語られるんでしょうか?
Q: Will we get to know more about this with the Lvl 80 job quest?

吉田氏: ほんのちょっと触れられてはいますが、あまりフレイと紐付けて欲しくはないですね。そもそもフレイという存在自体が、英雄の持っている内なる負の感情が人格化してるだけなので。内なる負の部分すら操って力に変えるというのが、今回の……まあちょっと中二設定ですね(笑)。あれで暗黒がさらに人気出てくれるといいなと思います。
Yoshida: It is slightly touched upon, but please don’t link it to “Fray” too much. “Fray” itself is only the personification of the player character’s repressed darkness. Controlling and turning your inner darkness into strength is the fantasy setting this time *laugh*. I hope Dark Knight will be more popular due to this.

>DRG
>more complex than NIN
DRG is literally the most boring melee job

user, there is only one class quest at the end now. The new thing is "role quests".

Because I was only thinking melee for some reason:
SMN is not punishing and seems but complex but actually plays itself
RDM you won't like
BRD you might like
MCH is currently tedious

all the trannies are going to switch to viera

Elezen are snowflake trannies
Roes are futa trannies
Midlanders are passive aggressive trannies
Highlanders are actual trannies
Miqote are female(male) trannies
AuRa are female(female(maybe male) trannies.
Hrothgar are furfag trannies
Viera are based

Oh I forgot one race, lalafells are pedophile niggers. No one loves them.

I'm expecting him and Myste will make an appearance, but I hope they don't do "oh hey look another personification of your mental illness! we've done this twice now"
as kino as those lines have been, I dont think they can do it a third time without it feeling pretty played out

NIN is easy as shit, what could you possibly think is more complex about it than DRG

No they aren't. Viera are too tall for them, and they're already petitioning on the OF to let them be """"smol"""". Trannies want ideal femininity and that includes being short. One of the many reasons they flock to Au Ra.
