FSH sucks and I have it at 80.

Just make every WAR ability, weapon skill, and trait fell cleave

I main DRK actually. The state of melee is a fucking joke right now though, there is no fucking reason for MNK to be rivaling BLM in its raid damage contribution right now. NIN is in the process of a rework so I'm not really considering its current state. DRG has been busted since day one of the expansion.

I did it, FSHbro.

Newfag here
Did they ever explain why there's no set bonuses

>NIN is in the process of a rework
I thought the nin "rework" was the thing we just got a few days ago.

>that wasn't a rework brainlet that was just potency adjustments
Yes but it wouldn't surprise me if Yoshi called it a day on that and said "it's a rework baka gaijin".

The same reason why there are no unique effects on gear

No, they're apparently changing how mudra work entirely, mentioning that they "learned a lot" from Dancer's steps.

People are fucking lazy and half the autists that play this game suffer from "social anxiety" (see all the people who cry about tank anxiety and healer anxiety when playing a new role for the first time), so if they make a PF and no one joins these people are likely to kill themselves because they think everyone hates them.

No he specifically stated the potency buffs were just a ”hotfix”. Major reworks never come in the .0X patches. He said NIN and SMN will get a major rework coming in 5.1. I want to level NIN but I hate using mk+b in this game and fuck playing it in controller.

Fishing is literally a waste of time, boring as hell, and the only argument I've ever heard from those who claim they like it is "it's comfy while watching netflix"

because stats have been streamlined to hell and back and there are no 'specs' or 'builds' for jobs. At most you can prioritize what substat you want the most of through materia, but it effects little and most of the time for most jobs you either want crit or direct hit

Its just not for you then lol let people enjoy thing

Fishing is the only job that doesnt make money, it really is just a waste of time

everything in this game is a waste of time, you might as well enjoy it

Is there a materia guide I don't want to be clueless as I was when I ran full battledance at the start of SB because I thought that was good

Are you BLM? If yes then SpS. If no then flip a coin. If it's heads stack as much crit as you can, if it's tails stack as much direct hit as you can.

Steps are a trigger button which prompts two (or four if Technical Step) move buttons to push, picked at random, then executed by pushing the trigger button again

I haven't been in the conversation. Is this that same RDM main who was constantly throwing a tantrum back in the weeks leading up to SHB?

What like, you press it and then go like W A and then press it again? Just an example in case it goes like up and left.

Using the "wrong" materia is probably worth 1-2% of your DPS. In other words don't worry about it, just meld crit or det or DH it literally won't make a difference. 99% of your damage comes from you actually maximizing your uptime.

Dude it’s shit just trust me

balance is unimportant, only fun is important

balance, homogenization and streamlining is fucking ruining the game

>1-2%
Might be the difference between getting a 98/97 and getting a 99.

Probably, his parse autism knows no bounds.

>Fishing is the only job that doesnt make money
*raughs in aethersand*

someone who "needs" a materia guide isn't hitting 97s

That percentage adds up that’s why food and pots are also relevant if you want to parsetranny correctly

So what exactly is wrong with SMN now other than pet actions getting eaten up without going off now?

Is NIN getting out of the shed bros.....I miss trick attack....

That’s a huge fucking problem especially when Bahamut is most of your burst damage lmao. Animations clipping/not registering at all, DoTs not lining up, Wyrmtrance got worse, devotion got “buffed”, Ruin spam is even more boring than Fire IV. I can go on but seriously I apparently fucking hate myself for maining this shit enough to be orange right now

F4 isn't even boring though, getting to constsntly shit out tens of thousands in damage is its own reward.

Having played all three roles i feel like DPS not AoEing is the worst, specially when you and the tank/healer have used your cooldowns and by the time they're over the mobs are still only halfway dead.

Make Missionary and Heart of Light reduce all damage instead of just magic that is the dumbest shit

Aren't most raidwides magical anyways?

>>queue up as healer

more like the tank does a multi pull, but doesn't use a single cooldown, ontop of the DPS not using AoE

>verflare/verholy and scorch both guaranteed directcrits when using verflare or verholy triggers a verfire or verstone proc
rate my "save red mage" buff idea

That's actually the opposite of how I feel. Having leveled all tanks to 80, PLD's mitigation feels the weakest by far. It used to be the cooldown king but now the new sheltron feels weak as hell and the job's missing a personal cooldown entirely. And hallowed ground used to feel overpowered but now the cooldown feels so long that it sucks. Holmgang and superbolide are miles better, and TBN is so strong that it sort of makes up for living dead being as shit as it's always been.

That's beside the point though. It's fine for the tanks to not be balanced if it means they actually get to be different from one another.

t. 4.0 DRK main

>waaaah buff these extremely strong skills

> First time I try one of these.

T-thanks.

That's just because all the other tanks got stuff to compete with sheltron and for the most part all those skills are better. The sentinel thing was definitely a buff in almost every case.

Is the modding scene dead now or is everything just behind a shitty paywall now? During Stormblood it seemed like there were multiple releases a day and now I rarely see more than maybe 2-3 a week which is a shame because the base textures in this game are fucking awful.

Kind of assu

>strong
>useless half the time by the arbitrary decision of what is or isn't magical

If they streamlined this much shit already, I cannot understand why they even want to differentiate between physical and magical, let alone try to keep an entire job "the magic tank". Dark Mind is garbage and I hate it. Popping Missionary against incoming raid wide damage only to have it do absolutely nothing feels like shit. What is even the point of differentiating damage types other than forcing you to memorize what type of damage an attack is so that you can say to yourself "two of my cooldowns are completely useless against this"? It isn't fun.

>nerfs
Confirmed for not paying attention to balance patches for the entire history of the game.

They RARELY ever nerf jobs, and prefer to buff the jobs that are underperforming.

PLD and WAR both get damage shields (the best form of damage mitigation) along with PLD also getting another fully party mitigation that also mitigates both physical and magical damage, while GNB and DRK are stuck with just magical damage mitigation. It's dumb.

DRK literally has TDN shut the fuck up. GNB also loses on mitigation for having “better” burst damage than the other tanks. Homogenizing them would make them lose their individuality. If everyone is special no one is

Considering just how much DRG and MNK are over performing (especially MNK) just continuing to constantly buff buff buff is going to lead to things spiraling out of control, hell we're halfway there already.

they're bad for not running to you when they have aggro but you're bad for ever dropping aggro in 5.0

Wow that single target shield sure is some baller partywide mitigation, you fucking retard.

He never said anything about losing aggro though

Tank will eventually lose aggro unless they stop AoEing and instead waste a GCD on a single-target attack.

Jesus christ you're delusional. FFXIV is a Single Player game that Yoshida managed to somehow siphon monthly fees from.

What a small brain.

Raidwides it doesn't work on this tier:
Paradisal Dive (the fucking proximity markers in 1)
Doomvoid Cleaver
Megalith (not even a raidwide but the list was looking kind of sparse)

Yeah. They're useless half the time. Even if they were, having to give the slightest additional thought to your cooldown mapping is sooooo not fun huh?

The only reason i parse outside of raids is to keep an eye on dipshits that do fucking nothing and give them that silent kick. Im not sure if other people are parsing too to agree but it works pretty often.

So why was this removed again? Out of all drg players I spoke to, both pc and console players, they literally just added a second True Thrust on their hotbar at the start of their Chaos Thrust combo.
They axe old skills in the name of hotbar space, and in that same breath they add those 1 hotbar spot for a full combo. The icing on the cake is that Impulse Drive is still present in pvp.

It's insulting to think you'd even need a guide to figure out stuff like "hmm, Flare does a ton of damage but bottoms out my MP, I wonder what I need to do to USE THIS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE?"

Literally me.

Impulse Drive didn't really do anything? It was just a starter for the Chaos combo. Disembowel buffs you and Chaos Thrust puts up a DoT, while Vorpal and Full Thrust just outright hit harder, but Impulse Drive didn't really do anything. I think it had slightly more potency than True Thrust, but that was about it.

It just doesn't seem necessary to have two combo start buttons when the combo doesn't really differentiate until the second hit. If Impulse Drive had had some kind of effect it might have been different, but it was just a mildly harder True Thrust. They even buffed True Thrust to compensate for getting rid of it.

Really, Impulse Drive and True Thrust weren't really that different (like 40 potency,) and by buffing True Thrust and axing Impulse Drive we get to save a button for our hotbars and get a potency buff.

Dungeons, yeah, kinda. Nobody really cares if you're not going 100% in a casual dungeon. As long as you're broadly doing the right stuff and don't cause the group to wipe, or slow down the dungeon excessively, it's whatever.

So it's bad to try to do very well because most other people don't?
Interesting perspective

Trying to do well and uploading and dickwagging a roulette dungeon are two different things

It's a little pointless. I mean, people are just there to do their daily shit, and it's not like it's challenging content or anything.
Maybe they'll commend you for it? Beyond that, what's the point? Dungeon performance has little weight on savage raid performance.

stay mad faggot

You should parse dungeons but I don't see the point of uploading them

there's even less point to getting triggered by someone uploading dungeons. I like to see the numbers. Deal with it bitch

You can do well. A lot of people have more fun when they're playing optimally as opposed to braindead slogging because "it's just a dungeon lmao". But playing well and actually uplolading a dungeon parse to fflogs are not the same thing.

Whether you "actually upload a dungeon parse to fflogs" or not is a retarded fucking thing to make a big deal about. Stop crying.

I made it as question for the people saying how much better it would be if it worked as DNC. I just assumed you were one of them.

Are the fragments of the source different universes altogether or are they planets scattered around the same universe? When they say Omega came from a different star they don't mean a different shard, right?

They are planets but in different universes. In other words, each shard is a planet, but not in the same universe. You can't go to other shards by space travelling with a ship from the source.

Different universes. Omega and Midgardsormr came from and impossibly long distance within the same universe, Ishgardian astrology tracks Nidhogg's horde by the Dragon Star, Midgardsormr's planet, which the Dravanians use as a North Star for guidance.
