Thread: Bind since the update     submit to reddit submit to twitter

    Bind since the update

    I've had some trouble with bind since the update. Especially with sky NMs

    I've farmed before and after the update. I've only had one bad episode of binds on a zip before the update.

    Since the update I've gone to sky twice now, and we've kill faust and zip both times, and all 4 of those fights have had bind issues.

    The second faust even resisted 3 binds in arow on ice day. (wiped shortly after)

    My duo partner and I on the first Faust kill had to resort to putting gravity on and double two houring to finish him

    my bind macro has:
    333 enfeeble skill
    90int
    12 ice magic acc
    6 generic m.acc
    Bind recast:27seconds

    I know people do this fight in some different ways, either solo, duo/trio, straight tank or bind infinity

    tried again after wipe, and first 2 bind were resisted (brought a pld to assist us) grav resisted after 2 cast.

    Honestly, worst faust I've ever fought.

    Sounds like it popped at the higher range of it's levels.

    Definitely a high pop, I've done Zip a couple of times since the update and got low pops, I have relatively similar stats and had the easiest time I've ever had on it(first time I'd tried since getting D.Chap/Seraweels and a few other upgrades).

    cool, like well over a year ago? back when your LS had what one kill on Khim ever?

    No disrespect ment towards PB, but you, Shirahime, are hardly the person to question anyone

    thanks for everyone who put some input on this, it is possible in all my kills before (over 2 dozen) I did never get a high pop. I'll reconfigure my bind macro abit with what I can for a better land rate.

    Why don't you have your bind macro to be the best godly bind setup possible already?

    it's a good setup as is, I've mostly focused on haste/recast since going to sky since my land rate was good and rarely had trouble landing bind before rescently

    reconfiguring the bind macro doesn't purely make it better, it'll increase the int/m.acc but not lower my recast as much. Finding a good balance in having enough acc to be reliable and having a lower recast incase of freak resist is often the best way to go.

    Ahh your right, it sucks that the fast cast and enfeebling pieces happen to share the 2 same slots.
