>still no raid roulette
Why add a roulette for it if you can just add a grinding step that no one will do after next week?
If you seen that uncovered ff15 event you'd understand where all of the money from XIV is going.
>People still play this shit game
I never played this game that much but this week I actually hit the cap of whatever tomestone it is this time. What is with the cap?
>>333107372
To keep people subscribed for more than a month.
>>333105168
I have spent a little too much time on leveling my classes, since all of the battle ones are 60. I havnt really payed attention to other things.
Is anything I should be doing? I am in the precess of leveling some gatherers/crafters. But I rarely do hunts, been doing some beast tribe quests, but it's still early. I havnt touched chocobo breeding. Are there any activities that I should put in my normal schecule?
the feeling when you are too underleveled to do anything with your FC
>>333107598
Not really. It depends on if you have any specific goals. I can't imagine there being much use for gathering/crafting besides making gil for a house. Beyond that there's tomestone farming to cap, which just means better equipment/iLevel.
Can any fishers tell me if a fish requires Fish Eyes to be caught, do I have to use it every time? Or if I catch it once then I am able to catch it without the skill?
>>333108258
you have to use it every time, and you will not be able to catch it if fish eyes expires before you cast your line
its basically there to make it so you can't use Patience to make it easier. stick to axolotl and thunderbolts
I'd like to level Culinarian but it seems every dish takes a million ingredients to make.
>>333108609
trick is most of those ingredients come from npc vendors. there's usually only 1 or 2 per list you need to gather/hunt for. and raw materials are always cheap
>>333108609
if you have one of your retainers as a combat class they can help you get ingredients that drop from enemies
>>333107928
Why bother? Alexander is boring to run over and over again
>>333108019
Got a small house,crappy location, but it's well decorated, and got like a mil gil atm, and while I spend money like a fool.
Doing beast because I miss traveling in the world, and it's not as tedious as I remember (I was 50 back then though).
Got enough gear, that list is old, all of the classes are of higher level now.
It would be fun to have more cash, but maybe I just should sotp playing all togheter.
>>333108691
>>333108842
Thanks, good thing I had already given SE my shekels for another retainer.
>>333108446
I've had my 99 scrip tokens ready to buy whatever book would get me a worthwhile fish almost the whole week and it fucked me with rng. I checked every day and it hasn't stuck me with anything better than capelin so that's what I'm forced to go for this week. I got 1, only 9 more to go

Just hit 60 the other day, now grinding for Tomestones so I can get i200 gear and go into the Antitower. What should I do next?
Level another class? Main MNK. Have all jobs, most classes at 30, DRG at 35 and WHM 38.
Try DoH/L? I have LTW at 11 and that's literally it.
Attempt Coil? I'm decent at the game I think, getting lots of comms as MNK, but I don't know how skilled I have to be to do the infamous full party dungeons. I don't communicate with my FC so I'd be doing it via DF.
Void Ark once I hit the level for it? Crystal Tower wasn't bad, but I played it long after it was made irrelevant (as in last month).
Anything else I'm missing? I just started beast tribe stuff for the first time today, so I've got that to do. Is PVP worthwhile? I'm tempted to do Frontline for the tomestone bonus. I'm not doing relic weapon stuff, that breaks my limit for grinding.
>>333111921

>>333112059

Level a DRK to max level. They have the best quest chain in the entire game and are very fun if you play them well.

>>333115440
I got the titan pony on my second run, where I fucked up hard and got knocked off half a minute into the last phase
From that day on I swore I'd queue for titan ex as tank every day and teach people how to do it
It's not going well, people on duty finder are fucking retarded
>>333114369
No. If you want to lead the dungeon then you tank instead. Stop pulling enmity and extra pats when you get bored. I can't handle MP management when I need to spam power slash + DA to compete on single target.
>>333115835
Unfortunately tanks rely a lot on gear in early levels. A lot more than other classes rely on it.
However, this particular tank was pulling 2-3 groups at a time and then flashing twice before entering typical rotation. So if you're grabbing large groups and then telling people to throttle their AoE DPS, I have to wonder why you do it at all.
>>333115408

I still have Ramuh EX and Shiva EX left and they seem hard.

Mentor system fails in NA/EU because it's a status symbol here. People who have WHM, PLD and DRG all at 60 can't give you basic advice on how to play WHM or PLD because they're a "dragoon main"
The mentor chat is an elitist shitflinging fest and most of the new players in it are bots selling gil; if you see a mentor 9 times out of 10 it's a fucking shitter. I know how to play all classes, but I've not joined the mentor system because I'd be forced to socialize with these fuckwads and it'd brand me as a mouthbreather.

>>333118509
About half because I've not been playing those classes in awhile.
I change up glamours I use for classes every month or two. This wouldn't be a problem if we could get some kind of glamour box system where you can disassemble items to be able to open a glamour menu for them. Kind of like a closet but losing the physical item.

>>333118846
When she brings out the sword, face her toward the party to split the cleave damage, then face her away again.
When she brings out the bow, immediately get behind her or she'll one-shot you. After her huge one-shot arrow fan, bring her north to the edge .
>>333112989
>>333118846
Even fucking easier.
Swap after she fired her arrow. If you got target by push back skill use Tempered Will(PLD), Holmgang(WAR) but if you're DRK then you'll have to move to her back

Yeah, the game doesn't really explain shit in good detail. The newbie guild shit is a step in the right direction but the problem isn't that low levels are bad, it's that high levels are playing as if they've ignored the first 50levels of the game.
Your best bet is to find a player who plays your main and asking them to show you how to play on a dummy or something. When I first hit 50 on ninja my FC leader told me my rotation was absolute trash in T9 and took me to our FC house to drill it into me.

Well, if you're only 1 off you just don't take the tether on the tank, and make them use their invincibility move.

>>333120893
I understand it: in a well designed game outgoing damage is so insanely high and buff chaining is such an intense task that there should never be any time for DPSing as a healer - it's just not your fuckin' job. But XIV is a fucking hot mess and you basically never need to heal so everyone is a weird DPS hybrid.

I didn't find gaius intresting at all. He's a cliche as fuck jrpg villain who was doing it all 'for greater good', but in realliy is just a retarded short-sighted psychopath and wafmongr with delusions of grandeur, who gets fiddled by the 'real' villain.
The emperor is a pompous ass, gaius version 2 basically, that annoyed the fuck outa me the second he appeared on screen so i instantly skip all cutscenes he's in.

Huton.
Monks can get 1s attacks now with buffs but TP drains too fast to be viable. When you run out of TP in a minute going fast isn't viable.

Middleaged single mothers with limited brainpower.
I had one that was awful at the game but we kept her around cause she was nice and our small FC needed a dedicated healer.

>Gaius
>short-sighted psychopath

Gaius took Ala Mhigo with almost zero bloodshed because he used psy-op tactics to instill social unrest.
When Nael was calling down Dalamud, Gaius helped take him down because he knew it was batshit insane and that kind of violence wasn't needed at all.
You didn't pay the smallest bit of attention to his character. He sold out his principles in the end out of desperation, but he was never a psychopath. He really did always want what he believed was right.
>>333121395
I bet Odin fried your average healer brains because they suddenly have to use Divine Seal.
>>333121305
>CNJ storyline is actually entirely about telling healers that they can and should attack as well
>they still refuse to try it
Stance dancing is fun, more people ought to try it properly. It's more engaging that most DPS rotations at least
>>333121220
I don't know about that. There are plenty of fights where even the best of healers don't have any downtime. Sure there are slower phases where a WHM might have time to throw out some damage, or a SCH might toss out some DoTs, but most healers focus on healing during major bosses.
If you can weave damage effortlessly between your healing in nearly every situation then bravo, you're a very good healer.
>>333121304

Also can anyone give me a run through of Ninja gameplay theory, with regards to rotation/priorities/when to pop cooldowns, etc. I trust /v/ with this stuff more than the official forums, and the parse-padding theorycraft wankers.
So I've piled up about twelve million Gil, am I still abysmally poor?
>>333121647
i110 T13 had very little healing downtime for the main healer (usually the WHM). Can't really think of any other fight though.

If a fight is easier then you should be rewarded with a little experimentation. I don't see this as a complaint. Merely a level of difficultly that somebody may have mastered. Perhaps the game is just plain easy for them, so they should move on.
>>333121741
Yep.
>mfw listening to 80's music while playing MCH
How do you spot a WoWfugee in this game or on /v/? What are the biggest giveaways?
>>333121740
You keep Huton up, you keep dancing edge applied unless there's a warrior in the party who's not a fucking shitter, you keep your dots up and you mash your ogcd's as hard as you fucking can once every minute when you trick attack.
>>333121898
When I'm in a dungeon and everyone else is mashing two buttons only.
>>333121741
Depends on the server.
For the most part 12 mil is still kinda poor, yeah. Upper level poor, but still poor. You want around 30m or so before you're at about mid-range, and then into the ~100-120m range before you're touching on 'rich'.
>>333121898
They say "toon" when referring to their characters.

2.5 GCD.
>>333121361

I just got greased lightning II and I thought that was fast. You mean to tell me that you can go even further beyond regular speedy stuff and vomit attacks faster than the animations? I'm liking MNK more and more every day.

Before some dingus links Shasta's brutally incorrect guide:
YOU WILL ALWAYS CLIP YOUR GCD WITH RAITON NO MATTER WHAT. THERE IS NO AVOIDING IT, EVEN AT 0 PING. DO NOT EVER RAITON WHEN IT ISN'T FULLY BUFFED, USING IT FOR EVERY MUDRA AS SUGGESTED BY SHASTA AFTER THE MUDRA HANDSHAKE CHANGES WILL RESULT IN A LOSS OF UPWARDS OF 10 GCD'S OVER AN EIGHT MINUTE ENCOUNTER
>>333121741
There's literal poorfags that is at or at less than a mil. Then there's the second tier that's probably between 2-20 mil.
Then there's the "I decided to make 999.999.999 gil for fun" people.
>>333121647
If healers aren't doing 500-700 combined at least in savage/ex primals right now, then they're slacking.
How do I do macros? I've never played any mmo except this.
I can make my certain buttons do a chain of skills right? Both of my hotbars are filled up so I have to do some serious finger twister with the ctrl button.
>>333122124
Is 999,999,999 the max? Fuck, I'm only 25% of the way there.

>Realize that pre 60 BLM was the dumbest shit.
>>333122464
I'm so glad I waiting until HW to level BLM. The 60 rotation might be a pain to keep up with all the boss aoes, but at least it isn't as braindead and boring as the 50 rotation
>>333121819
I'll have a read through this when I get home from work.
>>333121928
>>333122116
So the idea is to save OGCDs for trick attack funtime, and use fuma shuriken unless I've got some kind of buff up?
Thanks guys.
>>333122334
NIN without Huton is literally the worst shit ever. Even their animation was made with Huton in mind.
I have no problem playing at 2.3-2.5 GCD as DRG, but when I play NIN without Huton it feels slower than molasses.
>>333122352
>sub-50 content
>don't have full flank and rear rotations
I feel naked. Even just losing Dragon Kick is weird.
>>333122036

>>333121361

F&C and WT wouldn't be so bad if they were fucking COMBINED ON THE SAME BUTTON
WHY SUCH A FUCKING SIMPLE THING ISN'T THE DEFAULT IS ASTOUNDING
>>333122825
There is no cap on any skill, however you can stack shit to ridiculous levels. For instance Monks can stack crit buffs to make them have a %70-80 critrate.
They did some patch fuckery in how things are calculated with HW to keep shit from getting too fast. There was also talk when HW hit to decrease overall GCD to 1.5s~ by the time HW is ended but don't get your hopes up.
>level synch below 40 as PLD
Nah it's fine I didn't want the tools to do my job anyway
>>333107372
Typical MMO mechanic to both keep some semblance of progression parity between casual and hardcore, as well as discourage people from burning themselves out by not excessively rewarding poopsocking (someone who plays 12 hours a day won't get seven times as much stuff as someone who plays 12 hours a week) and keep people from running out of content too fast (since you can't get everything you need to feel like you're "done" via a week or two of marathon play and thus have to keep subscribing.) Raid lockouts (be they "hard" lockouts or "you can run this as much as you want but can only get loot the first time" lockouts) are another form of this, as is rest exp (though that one cleverly frames itself as a bonus for not playing rather than a cap or "penalty.")
>>333123043
I was so tempted to not do the 58 Dragoon quest knowing I would have to add another skill to my hotbar that does the exact same fucking thing as the one before it.
Why is it random? Why couldn't they just combo properly. Fuck you.
>>333123084
>There was also talk when HW hit to decrease overall GCD to 1.5s~ by the time HW is ended but don't get your hopes up.
With the current net code it's going to be clipping galore if they still stick with this type of system.
>>333123043
I actually just made a macro that uses both of them at the same time. Whenever I combo it I can just spam the macro and it;'ll use the correct move. Lets me save a space on my hotbar.
>>333123290
>He macros a queue-able skill
>>333123043
That was some stupid shit. I think part of it because the design team want to pad out DRG skills for whatever reasons.
>>333123290
You will clip your GCD like that because of how macro is handled (You can't queue them)
>>333122847
shit dragoon
should use full thrust 100% of the time since it has the highest potency
>>333123386
Yeah that's the downside, but like I said I just spam the macro when it comes up and it goes through with no delay.

At least it made for a pleasant surprise. Already got spoiled on enough plot stuff.
>>333122825
The thought of a time where a 1.5 second total for a bootshine combo exists. What time to be alive. Albeit the upkeep cost for it is huge, but good lord the dps must be outta this world at that level.

I still don't get why they insist on still doing that shit. Does it really make Tam-Tara Deepcroft that much easier if I can use Holy?
This goes double for spells that are flat-out replaced by higher-level versions like Stone.

What crafting classes work well with gatherer? I just recently started playing and enjoy comfy woodcutting while listening to XFM podcasts.
Hoping to make some cash out of crafting, too.
>>333124781
>What crafting classes work well with gatherer?
All of them except CUL.
>>333124781
Basically they all do.
Botanist supports Carpenter, Weaver, Culinarian and Alchemist, while Miner supports Armorer, Blacksmith and Leatherworker Fisher is mostly ignored, but a few crafts from Alchemist and Culinarian need the fish.
>playing BLM
>low level dungeon in duty
>have to switch spell locations on hotkeys
I sat for 10 seconds wondering why my Fire III wasn't going off in Bukakke Manor. Why can't I use them, it would make the dungeons so much better. Other classes could benefit from this as well.
>>333116298
Shitter detected, fuck off.
>>333125189

I only do that with Healers.

>>333123696
PLD has to juggle enmity into the equasion when it comes to maximizing DPS. That doesn't mean they aren't still a bad job, but if you want to squeeze out the most DPS possible, you can't just get one solid enmity combo like DRK and call it good or have your enmity combo used every other combo like WAR, especially if you have non shit DPS in your party.
>>333125591
>have your enmity combo used every other combo like WAR
Fucking WAR.
And to think they have Unchained too.
>>333125740
Yeah, but WARs have the smallest burst tps in their opener so it makes up for it. PLD and DRK have tools like c&s, shield swipe, spirits within, ect to help give them a slight enmity lead before before they actually have to use their enmity combo, but it only really matter for PLD since they want to open with goring.
>implying WARs ever get to MT
>>333124098
Bards are having a hard enough time never using Foe's. Not even in a party with a BLM and Healer that actually dpses.
Cut them some slack.
>>333125740
WAR is just in such a fantastic position right now. 3.0 fixed pretty much everything wrong with the class and then some.
The only issue is that shitters are flocking to it in droves.
>>333125569
To keep things interesting and incentivise running low level content on high level classes.
Playing Ninja without Huton is excruciating for example. I don't care if you minimum iLv sync me or something, but if I can't have Huton I'm not doing any low-level duties.
