Yes but it also requires the other tank to not be a goddamned retard and stop generating aggro for 5 seconds. Most players are physically incapable of not pressing buttons for 3 seconds, let alone 5.

Because the RMT game is still good.

SE takes MONTHS to ban bots, so they make all their gil, sell it off, and make enough to make 20 more accounts, easy.

you could also teleport hack inside instances to solo bosses.

some people have cleared A3S by literally making teleport hack groups where they fly above the arena and kill the boss because he can't touch them. if they die for any reason, they can just release and teleport hack right back into the arena and keep the boss engaged.

Anon what the fuck are you even doing? Talk to people, when running dungeons or joining a party in party finder. Join an active fc, best if it uses some kind of voice chat. Join a static, no better way to meet friends then spending hours on an encounter together.

But really the biggest one is to just talk to people, participate in stuff with them. If you're super desperate you can try joining the novice network, those guys are great.

You will get absolutely swarmed with Free Compant (Guild) invites the minute people see you're new and don't have one yet. There are plenty of people willing to help out newer players (and plenty of people just looking to boost their FC's membership numbers but that's life).

So I've been doing some chocobo racing.

I've bred my last bird with a rental and got a shitty chocobo out of it. I did a few races with it anyway for the MGP.
I used the same mother bird and another rental for another breeding and got one with much better stats.

Should I get the shitty one to level 40 anyway and retire it for breeding or just replace it with the good one?
>>
>>334175648
I always say hi in dungeons and try to explain the mechanics if someone is new to the duty but I'm not really comfortable with randomly adding someone to friends because we did a shitty dungeon together, and they're often from another server anyway
I tried joining a few FCs but since everyone just knew each other I'd rarely get to do anything with them, maybe they'd ask me if I wanted to do a roulette and that was it for the day
I'm also really bad at making small talk so that doesn't help

I'm doomed to be an autist in mmos as well as real life
>>
>>334175810
Well you might have missed the launch but you still have the expansions where the game gets pretty hectic. We're on patch 3.2 right now, so the next expansion would be 4.0. Before that we have patches 3.3-3.5(Probably, if the last patch cycle was anything to stand on) each released at roughly a rate of 1 per 3-3.5 months. So we could see 4.0 sometime next year.

I don't know man, but you gotta star somewhere. Just try to add more people to your friends list, it's not even really having them on there then it is them seeing you going the distance to befriend them. Another good idea is to get into some linkshells. Hunts, endgame raiding, anything really where you can talk to people ad get them aware of you.

C and B ranks are. A ranks you can technically solo, but they take forever. S ranks still need a few parties to take them down.

You can only have one chocobo registered to race anyway. You have to get the other one to 40 to retire it before you can register the newly bred one.

I am sorry for your loss.

The B Ranks only give seals if they are your weekly elite marks.

A Ranks can be soloed but the 3.0 ones take forever.

S Ranks still need multiple people.

It was an example of some of the minor things I notice.

His biggest problem is that hes slow to heal and he really forces me out of clerics more than I'd like. I feel like he's either not muscle memoried all the aoes yet, or isn't really paying attention to when they are coming.

The CO thing is because he should be using it with LE, which he doesn't. Also spending CO on regens is a waste.

He also asks me to succor more, which is...a bad sign considering I'm only mitigating the first aoe when they come in sets.

Also I don't have to go run with them either, it was only that one time when they asked for a healer so I volunteered and noticed why their progression is so slow.

Another thing they could fix is their dps setup, they have 1 brd and 2 mch and the moment I asked why I got a ton of remarks about how those are the only classes they can bring, I'd really rather not hurt their feelings especially since they are just casual players.

Yeah but running past them still does nothing but be a minor inconvenience if they manage to get a heavy on you.

The obvious answer here is to be willing to stance dance.

WAR can shit out damage while still holding aggro, but only on single-target bosses or if he asks the group to go easy on aoe damage.

not a lot of pressure on healers unless you're trying to minmax your dps while keeping everyone alive, they pretty much have to deal with the same mechanics as the dps
>>
>>334186915
>I just don't want to feel the pressure a healer or tank would have compared to DPS

What pressure?
All tank has to do is hold onto mobs. They have to try to not be able to do that.
All healers have to do is not let people die. People here go on about healer DPS but no one in actualy DF (in aether at least) gives a fuck if you DPS or not.

I know what you mean about being pressured as a healer. You tend to get over it once you do it enough and just enjoy the fast ques. As for being #28 may be around 10-30 mins.

You're correct about tanking, holding aggro is pretty easy if you understand your class.

Healing is hit or miss, though. "Don't let people die" can be pretty tough when your group treats healing like a 5-year-old at the doctor.

They need to finally release a heavy armor wearing two hander dps. Samurai sounds good so far and has been semi confirmed afaik. The only thing that really keeps me from properly playing FF is not having a class that suits me. Give WAR/DRK dedicated dps role or SAM. I say dps because I played tank for 5 years in different MMOs and honestly, fuck that.

No. He did what he needed to do to keep more people from dying.
You see the shit going on in Ishgard now that the truth came out. If he'd said anything, that would be happening in the thick of the war and way, way more people would die. He needed a united people until he could find a way to kill Nidhogg, which he did.
