I'm too cheap to activate my old sub so I made a level 35 character that I'm minmaxing with the best gear I can obtain without access to market or trading. I don't know why.

Depends of your level, for SB dailies, I remember it being good at lvl 60-63 but it starts sucking complete ass dick the closer you get to 70 simply because the xp you get from the quests doesn't scale as much as the xp you need to level.

Really? First time I'm seeing it even though I tend to jump on every FFXIV threads I see.

Telling you to go back to /vg/ or /trash/ is appropriate then.

Moogles are cool.

So you're pugging huh?

Going two dancers is setting yourself up for failure their buffs just overwrite each other instead of adding up together. I would just avoid dupe classes altogether, have one of the ASTs change to a WHM or SCH and have one of the DNCs switch to another DPS class.

Just like telling you to go back to era is appropriate if you dislike sexy pics

It's seen as a slippery slope towards avatarfagging and the general bullshit that is the /vg/ thread. Granted, that bullshit goes for literally every general on that board because it's a horrible fucking board, but that's just why people are paranoid about avoiding it.

Am I getting xiv confused with another game or did they nerf it at some point

you want to use upheaval on cd, unless there's less than like 23 seconds left on the timer because you'll miss using it under inner release. make sure you always have 20 beast juice in the tank so you can actually use it on cd since it lines up pretty nicely with raid buffs
use your best judgement for onslaught, it's different from the other tank gap closers so you're only really going to use it under ir or if you're going to lose damage by being away from the boss for whatever reason. it's a weird skill

Objectively, if a player is playing an off-meta job, then they need to be better than someone who plays a meta job in order to do the same DPS. Ergo, parties should be taking players who play meta jobs because that gives them the best shot at getting the deeps they need

raid trannies complained about it

We all know she WANTS to, and all but admits it at the end of SB.

Go make all the DPS do a 5-10 minute rotation on a dummy and see how much dps they do because that should be a good indicator if it's a mechanics issue or IQ issue. I main RDM and I was grey parsing Titania for a long fucking time but after I learned the mechanics inside and out I can occasionally purple parse but reliably blue parse. I got a major issue of losing procs because of butterfingers and people dying at really fucking bad times.

It's not a bait, my group was in that exact same issue two weeks ago.

Same thing happened with e1 last week. Now we're repeating the process with e2 this week.

I never did savage content so close to launch but I got all normal Eden gear on my main with appropriate melds so I guess I might as well start Es1. I hope tome gear isn't expected in these fights because I'm not going to start doing roulette's again for these faggots.

How important is it that you learn the opener for MNK anyways?

I still repeat the cutscenes and boss fight every week and it is still as epic as the first time.

I dont plan on caring about parsing or any of that other mess but i keep seeing people talk about parse nonsense in every 14 thread. I'd like to at least understand what the numbers in the images mean though.

How about you stop waisting time in titania and do E1s. Other than that Jesus just press every cooldown on cooldown and every dps there should parse better

not important, as long as u know how the class works. almost every single jap has their own opener

statics might not, but it gets progressively more painful to pug it the further you get from reset

You raise a good point

What

In a nutshell, the higher the numbers, the better you perform.

Attached: 1565286272304.png (1920x1080, 2.26M)

the numbers are percentiles and class specific, so the drk (for example) did more dps than 88% of the drks that have uploaded to the site
they're also color coded from grey(the lowest 25%) -> green -> blue -> purple -> orange(the top 10%), so if people talk about a purple parse they're in the 75-90% range

>comparing emet selch to kotor2 or anything in that game
Actual brain damage.

True, but savage pugs are sort of the minority here.

>how dare you compare two games you like to each other

Where do you get kotor2 from that?

>that the vast majority of people here on the FFXIV Yea Forums threads
It's insanely easy to give the illusion of a consensus on Yea Forums, some hours are more receptive to it than others. Use Blue Mage shitposting and arguing as an example, most of the day can talk about it with something resembling civility but some afternoon-night hours have that guy that goes on a crusade about how angry and sad Blue Mage's implementation makes him so he feels the need to argue with anybody that doesn't have the same roiling hatred.

I'd personally opt for "unprompted character posting should fuck off" since a visual aid helps tremendously with your question or whatever you're asking advice for at the time, say a glamour. It's easy to tell who's just posting a character and who's deliberately fishing for attention, though some people apparently recognize one-off pictures on site from /vg/. I wouldn't know, I don't keep my finger on the pulse of a different board and most of the time I only learn who somebody in particular in a screenshot is from somebody deciding to talk about them.

it seems like a lot of people who have gotten to endgame are angry about something to be honest.

Why bother getting mad at people when you can help them get better? I honestly don't understand it. more people at higher skill levels = more people to group with for competently beating high tier content.

Retarded comparison, but for the same reasons you always have one angry retard rage quitting a trial filled with sprouts, "I'm better than them ergo they're not worth my time".

To be fair, a lot of people either don't read chat or are too afraid to simply reply to simple questions such as "are you reading chat?" I often come across players to whom I'm trying to politely teach the mechanics of an encounter and I just get radio silence from them.

It literally is always better than normal gear at same ilvl...

Maybe you should take your own advice and help yourself get better first retard

I found Emet Selch to remind me of Kreia. Both in rhetoric and in presentation. Emet Selch hoped that a splintered ascian could reform without the need of the rejoining, and Kreia sought to destroy the force. They both discuss topics of moral relativism, and speak down to everyone they talk to. I didn't say I was comparing the games. Just that Emet Selch and the whole flipped narrative (A la fighting the light by restoring the dark) of Shadowbringers reminded me of KOTOR 2/Kreia.

This is true week 1
The dps check is pretty irrelevant at this point now. As long you have a group that know how to play there job the dps check shouldn't be unobtainable with a clean run

It's like you don't understand how parse percentiles work.

I was like you once, a bright eyed and cheery mentor. I thought anyone could clear savage, as long as they tried their best and heeded the words of their betters. Some people, it turns out their best isn't good enough, and their brains fucking leak information at an unheard of rate; you can pound "go here, here then here" into their heads as much as you want, they just can't retain it or put it into practice.

>finally got BLM to 80 and it's one of my favorite classes

JUST

No, I understand. I've been playing for the better part of 2 years and I always make an effort to say hi and thank everyone for the party. The worst part isnt somone who doesnt know the mechanics for me. its the people who refuse to help when people are obviously having problems or dont know mechancics or are too afraid to admit they dont know them.

yeah thats the thing for me. being helpful and friendly has hcaused me to clear dungeons/trials/etc faster WAY MROE OFTEN than it has cause it to go slower. I dont understand the mentality of "everyone should already know everything im not going to bother saying anything because that wastes time" Its a videogame

Thats fair. I've seen that a lot too. Doesn't mean i won't keep trying or won't stop being nice though.

I've been playing for close to 2 years user. you can be upset all you want but I like being nice and having fun in a videogame. not getting mad at people I will likely never meet again. In my opinion the real "Retards" are the ones who refuse to help out because they think being a "Silent badass" will make the trial/dungeon/etc clear go faster instead of actually actively doing something.

but i guess im just an idiot huh.

see my other post here if they are obviously refusing to get better they deserve no sympathy. but if they are trying thats a different story. maybe I'm naive for attempting to see the best in everyone, but I've always been like that.

you can think that if you like, but you just sound bitter and angry. try doing something that gives you joy.

If you're below ~30% then you're basically just not pressing buttons.
Keep the GCD rolling constantly, keep buffs/dots up, and don't break combos.
If they're parsing that low, they are DEFINITELY fucking up at least one of those things.

>Steam

While the plow guard is a real guard, I do have to criticize how they animated it. The character's back is bent too much, their feet are spread too far, they're too low to the ground, and their knees almost bend inward. They're making every single mistake that somebody that doesn't know anything about athletics makes. It's honestly my biggest gripe with an animation in the game.

Just for context on how retarded your post is.

why

Steam is fine. There's really nothing wrong with it and you can use steambux to pay for your sub.

Who was in the wrong here? The viera the ronso or the fairy?

>If you're below ~30% then you're basically just not pressing buttons.
Not true since there is big gear difference right now.

The outfit, like other glamor items, will enhance assets.

If you can't do mechanics you shouldn't be worrying about your parse.

It's pointless to speak reason to egomaniacal mutts. It's ingrained in their brain by their retarded fucking culture to kick anyone that's down for their own amusement, even if it leads to overall detriment and hurts them too in the long run.

mentor chat to kill yourself

Because Steam is a third party client that requires you to have connection to their services to play an online game.

Which means if Steam ever goes down, you can't get into FF14

press your fucking buttons and stop dying and don't sit around with fucking ronkan gear or unmelded eden gear

I'm pretty sure recently they made it so that if Steam is down you can't access the game.

I guess if you're doing okay but have shit gear you might be around ~15-20 at worst. Anything below that is definitely a personal problem.

This is funny to me.

That isn't much of a point against it since steam's verification server basically never goes down

Most people want it for the crown for vanity purposes. I unironically believe if it was like a watering can or a big tree or some shit, vanityfags would fuck off.

I don't understand how mentors are the ones that single pull and bitch about doing DPS as healer.

offtanks can be carried
dancers are carried
one healer can be carried at a time

dps might be able to be carried if titan weapon pugs start showing up

Remember, all Fae are murdered somethings or other

No. Ronkan is 440IL. You should able to clear E1S or u bad

Some more incredible facts dropped by the thread's raiding genius

I don't get it, though, isn't there a Lifestream in the First?

Wanna try to clear E1S in Ronkan right now?

Fair enough. It just baffles me how people can be so put-offish over a videogame that 90% of the time has nothing to do with being competitive unless you're in PvP

Enrage for E1S is like 55k...
E2S is 70k....

Ez

I think its implied that Fae can, like how Emet was able to, grab a soul before it merges with the Lifestream and force its reincarnation.

Will you make the party or do I have to? My tanks are still ilvl 440 so they can come.

>15k dps increase from the first 2 floors
what the fuck

Upgrading one slot of gear by 10 ilvl - 400 dps
Melding two materia - 50 dps
Overmelding 3 extra materia - 40 dps

as long as tanks are doing their rotation as best they can and healers are cramming in as many attacks as possible and keeping their DoTs up, hitting enrage is mostly dependent on the DPS.

They are going to address this, they said so in the last live letter. In the mean time kicking for "playstyle" differences is your only option. Don't say anything and just kick him. And if you're with a buddy there's no chance of him staying since you only need 2 votes to kick someone.

How exactly are they going to address it?

I'd fuck Suzaku.

the crown defaults to on, so you turned it off. and that's okay.

rDPS was the best addition to fflog ever.

what quest features all of these drunk Moogles I keep seeing

>Overmelding throw away gear for an alt class
The only shitter here is you, learn how to play your alt classes instead of trying to pad and make up for it.

I want to keep devotion but have it come off me instead of my pet because depending on example which platforms titan himself destroys first I have to reposition the little bastard to give everyone the buff.
Fuck physic tho, completely worthless

start in Gridania and you'll see them

faggots like you are the reason why we can't solo the Deep Dungeons with Titan-egi as our tank anymore.

what do you do when you're pretty sure you're playing your class right but still can't break 12k over the course of an entire fight?

When will pug faggots finally realize you can just do Cleaver in the boss circle?

First and most importantly: have a brain. Also never use boosts and play whatever class from lv1 to 80. Do the hall of novice and learn your role. Use most of your toolkit instead of just mashing 1 button. Like if you just do your combos and hit your oGCDs you're already better then 90% of the playerbase. Don't be a tank/healer/dps only shitter and play all roles.
If you do all this you're already beyond good in my eyes.

what the fuck why did I start in shitty ul'dah if I could've had drunk moogles

He's right. SMN is not pet job or warlock clone

12K is fine

Get better gears
Use food
Use pots

What's wrong with setting item level requirements?

It is pretty cool, I wonder if it'll actually influence any adjustments.

fuck you, samefag nigger

Titan egi was and still is worthless. He was never used for any meaningful content. He should outright be 100% removed from the game because of how worthless he is for savages and ultimates.
I have mained SMN since ARR and I want this fucker gone

around the same time they realize they can also be a mile away to do it

>12k
what job and fight?
mnk/blm/drg should be able to reach this number with ease, meanwhile dnc/nin/brd may struggle a bit to keep that number outside their opener

But everyone in these threads bitches about everyone. Surely most of the game's population has done what you're talking about?

I bet you're the type of self-proclaimed quasi-"elitist" who hasn't even cleared UCoB.

don't blame me, I play red mage and corps-a-corps often comes up at that time so it is what it is

there's always a shitterstopper in the MSQ, though. Garuda Normal, Steps of Faith, Ravana, Shinryu, and now Titania.

the Ninja one with the bats where you have to sneak around Aleport is 100% bullshit

Go to SSS.
Check HP/dps values no food pots

Still got 50% on each of them so I have no idea what the fuck is up with the average Dark Knight.

You don't even need savage gears to get them either because the tryhards are still too busy chasing parses in savages.

Is it wrong of me to sometimes slap myself with a clemency in the middle of Requiescat during E2S because the healers always scare the shit out of me?

Seriously, I know you need to top off the hell wind people but if I die someone is getting bitchslapped with a shadowflame.

>tfw the only log of me is me doing really poorly back when Eden normal came out because i was learning the fight

NO I'M NOT SHIT I SWEAR I'LL PICK UP PARSING TOOLS AND SHOW YOU I CAN DO GOOD IN TITTY EX AAAAAAAAAAAH

Tanks and Healers are easier to parse well on by default since they aren't damage focused roles. Healers in particular are a fucking joke parse wise, since you can horrendously pad your own numbers by forcing your co-healer to handle any and all GCD healing.

>No cute femboy race

Feels bad man.

Yeah no if you're looking up a guide for normal content you might as well look up a guide for killing yourself as well. The whole point of roulettes is to get people to do old content so sprouts and returners can actually clear it. Don't want to deal with bonus? Don't queue for the roulette.

never played sam at max but from what i can tell it is easier than MNK, less positionals if you can deal with the odd melee casting shit.

but you can still cast foul on mob groups in 5.0?

what are miqotes you very masculine strong man?

if you die because you didn't cast Clemency, it's the healers' fault. The enrage is still pretty razor-thin at this point so every Holy Spirit counts

Don't, you want to toss out as much DPS as you can. If you die, you can tell healers to keep you up more. Toss out clemencies when one of the healer is dead and they're focused on rezzing or some shit, but otherwise if everyone is fine, focus on DPSing. If you and have been using your CDs, it's on the healer.

>The enrage is still pretty razor-thin at this point
No it's not. Titan's is.

ty for repeating what i said

>caring about normals and ex when savage is out
It was fun to hit 100s when it first came out, but now we on the real shit bois

if you're in a situation where you feel the need to Clemency, you're definitely not in a static that's got E2S on lock. Pugs will be cocking up E2S until 4.2, guaranteed.

yes you ((miss)) something the game still actively encourages you to do. did you hit your head today

>28.5% when we reached dad&son phase
>one nigger dps died
>0.5% enrage
I fucking wish I wasn't stuck with Titania weapon so I can actually start carrying.

he meant he misses casting Foul in the single-target rotation, you dip

Miqo'te's are more muscular than Au ra and hyur, they're just manlets. Also the only cute face for Miqo'te looks weird with their proportions.

Out of curiosity, how much are your tanks doing dps wise? My static has gotten several 1% wipes and I genuinely feel like the dps from the dps jobs seems fine but our tanks are doing 6k each and one of our healers is doing 3k.

literally doesn't matter when the DPS each eat three demons during cycles

>Looking up guides is now a bad thing

You White knights really are ruining this game.

before this thread dies, anyone have any funny df pics or rage twitch clips?

Tome weapons will not save you from those damage downs

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Got the clear a pull after though so that's cool.
Ask your group to save some CDs coming into phase 2 and phase 3 so you can reopener

Attached: 2019-08-12_22-44-37.png (253x48, 1K)

My clear run from last week had 87% DRK at 7.6k and 37% GNB at 7.5k
>our tanks are doing 6k each and one of our healers is doing 3k.
I am sorry bro.

Kick them. They're holding you back. 8K tank minimum.

Is ACT still not accurate when it comes to parsing? I've noticed I'll hit 7k+ as a tank but when I put it in fflogs, it'll go around a mid-high 6k.

>now

Yeah. My static has me doing 13 something as BLM and every other dps doing 12 something. For people with no weapons or chest piece aka first clear I feel like this is fine.

But then there's the 2 tanks and that healer. And 1% wipes.

rDPS vs aDPS

Make sure the phase aren't split up.
You can also merge them manually in ACT but fflog will do it automatically for you.

he says foul in multi target makes him nut, that's fine, understandable.
but foul in single target? just an obligatory use this in umbral ice button. it doesn't have the same impact nor flexibility as xeno.

there shouldn't be any variation between your act log and the fflog, are you sure you're not looking at the rdps vs adps columns?

There IS however variation between two different act loggers in the same group, sometimes as much of a 200-300 dps difference.

Only got 88 on both DNC and MCH for both fights, no idea how to get better. Haven't touched either since Savage came out though.

You deal so much dps that dmg down will not matter

Why is this theme so good, god damn.

I had grey SCH in that run and he still did 4.4k while purple WHM did 5.9k, WHM was better geared though.
So yeah, your tank and healer dps are holding you back. Either tell them to git gud or wait for tome weapons.

you can just say you didn't play BLM during SB, it's ok, we won't think less of you.

i'm looking at the "all" portion of act and it's telling me 7.3k encDPS but I've noticed on fflogs, it'll mark it as 6.8k dps (aDPS)

one is with buffs, one is without

Ah, I see. When people talk about DPS in threads are they talking with or without buffs like on here

aDPS removes extra DPS you get from single target buff (AST cards, Dragon Sight, DNC partner, etc).

>healer makes the BLM do black smoker baiting

Here's one of our 1% wipes. I'm the BLM. Might not be great numbers but it's what I can pull off at the moment with my gear and skill and I genuinely feel like we did fine (the 4 dps).

Attached: dnI6Egb.png (1286x823, 84K)

oh do tell what's the proper usage of foul in SB, tranny, i'm all ears. surely you could use it to reposition or open up weave windows like xenoglossy!

FFlog mainly uses rDPS now, so without.

your SCH needs to get his shit together

>did fine
>people literally sub 10%

No. If they were good they would have done more damage to get you a clear. They are not carrying their weight.

>party wants to add melee to soak one puddle
seriously why the fuck do people want to do this if it's 100% attainable to fucking go HRHR
I fucking hate pugging sometimes but I don't want to commit to a static.

man well this is a bit disappointing. i wonder how else I can boost my DRK dps.

The DPS are doing fine (MCH should be better though).
GNB, PLD, and SCH didn't do enough.

This fight must be total ass for a BLM. How do you cope?

please try to control your autism, user

lmao nigga just stop

>hold triple, sharp, swift, two polyglots
>do black smokers and probably still have leftovers for temporary current
You aren't stuck with a shitty polyglot cast anymore m8

Well I specified I meant the 4 dps when I said fine.

>Miqo'te's are more muscular than Au ra

In your dreams. Even the most basic, ugliest Au ra looks way more masculine than catbottoms.

Don't listen anons who judge you by %. You just need a little more. Pentamelds for dps

>hurr durr i have literally NO argument
thanks for conceding, not sure what i expected from a retard pretending to be multiple people with (((((we))))))

Because it's filled with SOUL.

you could probably squeak it out if the MCH does a little better and the SCH gets his shit together

I think it removes aoe buffs too like lit, otherwise paladin's a/r would be the same

user he was literally just saying he misses the feeling of casting Foul as the big finish, and you climb up his dickhole with optimization autism

What are the point of different market tax rates for each city? Like why does Crystarium have lower tax rates than Ul'Dah?

Are there any nice dyeable stockings?

Titan SSS dummy for MCH is 12.600 dps. To reach this number you need to have half of your gear 470 and melded 450

Wait a minute. How the fuck did you finish innocence in 7 minutes?

dummies are overtuned because you don't have to worry about mechanics

They are overtuned to account for lucky crits too

>the difference in DPS between the tanks is starting to become more pronounced the deeper we get into Savage

Starting to get worried bros

Don't worry, nothing can be as worse as being a DNC main so you will always have something to look forward to.

RDM at least has raise.

I never understand the point of these tumblr-tier gifs

>my group would have killed titan week 1 if our blm wasn't complete trash at the game
Guy can only do 11k when everyone else is doing 12. Fuck that guy, if he wasn't the raid lead's friend he would have gotten the boot for this

DRK, actually. Being on bottom for two expansions in a row hurts.

I still don't understand what's Curing Waltz is for.
>bro just stack it for double the effectiveness
Still heals for fuckall.

>Guy can only do 11k when everyone else is doing 12.
At least tell me he wasn't the one who was fed first week coffers.

I treat it as a lightly better Second Wind, but you can use it during Improvisation.

WAR is at the bottom right now. If you are doing worse than WAR then you should check your rotation/TBN procs. Don't forget to TBN your healer or somebody else/MT at the right times.

Yes, he even got the titan weapon coffer week 2over our 13k monk because he needed on it too
Told the group to give it to mnk but no the raid lead said "eh, any dps who gets it should be fine"
Fuck man If the mnk didn't get it I had hoped I would atleast get it since I am a SMN out performing him

>want to get into a static
>self-conscious as fuck that I won't do things well at first and completely blind to all the fights
I want to die, I don't know why I feel the need to be perfect out of the gate.

Ok, now this is epic.

true fucking facts
I stuck it out through E1S/E2S but i'm starting to have major regrets especially since people are starting to lock NIN/DNC/RDM for 1 slot ("support" DPS)
it makes sense but i'm majorly sad
5.08 soon.... please dear god

You can join mine! ^^ what data center?

>most of the bosses teach you their mechanics till 60%
>lacking analytical skills to figure out what is going on
>the boss stages itself normally have markers that show you stuff for mechanics
user, you have a brain. Use it.

I know this post is ironic but Aether. Like I scored 90 on pre-savage Ex primals and I still don't think that's good enough to look for a static.

Does anyone actually enjoy current NIN?
Not shitting on it or anything but it just looks like a mess of CDs and ninjutsu reset to me right now.
Doesn't help that every NIN I've gotten so far turned out to be absolute shitters.

>he still does ex trials after the apocaPDPSe deleted every 5.0 parses up to that point
lmao at latelets

I'm on Aether too! Are you a DPS?

And that's a good thing.
pDPS was a meme.

>BLM
Can short fire phase by more legit with max spell speed build? I know Balance discord call it meme rotation with ~200 potency gain.

I find it fun because it's the only class in the entire game right now that takes skill to play. A real shame it will be butchered into a ezmmode class in 5.1

everything actually lines up really nicely as long as you do it in a VERY specific order
missing a mudra will eat your rotation alive
missing a TA window sets you back basically 1k DPS at least
it's incredibly strict but it's very fun
it's pretty much ruined every other job in the game for me because of how involved it is compared to other jobs
and i'm terrified of the rework because they are going to decimate it
I just want some more damage don't fuck with my rotation and stuff assholes...

only masochists and the delusional

What is short fire phase?

I assume he means no umbral hearts. There is a blm opener without it

Tank and DPS.

>everything actually lines up really nicely as long as you do it in a VERY specific order
Does this also account for clipping delay when performing 2 mudras+ ninjutsus?

Since nobody has answered your question yet and I too was frustrated by it, you have to go ALL the way back and do ALL the hunts starting with ARR GC log hunts, after that you have to go to each expansion and talk to every hunt quest giver and unlock every god damn tier.

It's mostly talking but finding the starting quests was a chore

I enjoy NIN because I like mudras/ninjutsu. NIN feels like real magic ninja but weaving everything in TA short window is problem

We're looking for a ranged DPS if you are one.

No B4, no F1.

It's the role I mostly play.

>everything actually lines up really nicely as long as you do it in a VERY specific order
you just described every dps in the game

clipping is mostly a meme
every CD lines up just fine, GCD rotation is not a big issue, you only need to watch Huton and armor crush when needed and same with shadow fang
if you do your CDs right then you are all good

most other DPS can go a little loosey-goosey with their rotation and oGCDs, while NIN has to do everything perfectly or it all goes to shit.

Let me know how to contact you and I can sneak you in. We're pretty casual.

>just hold literally 7 instacasts bro
wow
melee soaking isnt bad if they just put puddle in melee range

>yeah just triple weave every other GCD, clipping is no big deal bro

most DPS do not have only 10s to press 20 different buttons

clipping is DPS loss but NIN has nothing to lose

What? Amaya strat has melees soak 2 puddles just fine.
Just put it next to the boss.

Attached: TwkD81I.jpg (750x489, 43K)

I understand clipping is avoidable.
I just want confirmation that the CDs are designed in such that account for GCDs drift due to clipping.

it's only avoidable if you live on top of the data center and are also a master pianist with the reflexes of Bruce Lee

Is this what you'll be doing the entire fight or only in certain conditions? Because I can already see fucked up shit like
- you have so little wiggling room that any distraction will force you to f1 or drop eno
- where are your sharpcast windows now
- you go to UI, server tick cucks you, but since you don't use B4 you have no choice but wait until T3 can be casted
