This is the theorycrafting section of the BlueGartr Forums for Final Fantasy 14: A Realm Reborn.
If you need to know what theorycrafting is, do not post in this section, it is not for you.
The Theorycrafting section's primary function is for guided discussion along a strict topic for the enhancement and optimization of specific classes/jobs/dungeons/monsters on an elite level of play. It is also for hosting guides and compiled information on various aspects of the game.
For example, in the Marauder/Warrior discussion topic, the conversation will be directed towards the optimization of endgame usage of those classes/jobs. It should include information on stat optimization, gear optimization, rotation optimization, and even as far as racial optimization as well as the required other classes/jobs that need to be leveled for maximum damage output. It may also include a list of abilities and gear selections while progressing.
This section is not for helping you get off the ground by asking stupid questions, this section requires you to test your theories and present them in a clear and concise format so others may comment on their effectiveness, adjust them for optimization, or point out your absolute failures so you can try again and be better at it next time. Keep all random questions in the general game discussion forum.
There is a strict no tolerance level for trolling, off topic discussion, or even the creation of an unauthorized thread. In the rule of 3 you will be infracted to lose posting but not viewing privileges for 3, 6, and 9 days. After that you will experience a full forum ban for 3, 6, and 9 days. After that you will be unwelcome in the advanced section for 3 months or longer, depending on your level of stupidity or simply be permanently banned from the forums all together.
Please keep all random discussion in the discussion forum, this is not the place for it.
Please keep all random topics in the discussion forum, if your topic is worthy of the theorycrafting forum you will be given a chance to move or recreate your topic in the theorycrafting section.
Please keep all random complaints/whiteknighting to the appropriate threads in the general discussion forum.
All topics will be closed after 30 days of inactivity in the theorycrafting forum. If you have new information on the topic and it has been closed you are permitted to re-create the topic, advancing the topic number by one. Do not repost subjects and topics that have already been discussed unless you have new valid information. Failure to follow these guidelines will invoke the rule of 3.
All threads will not progress past 30 pages in the optimal 50 posts per page setting. After 30 pages the topic will be locked and a new topic referencing the old topic will be created and the numbering of the topic will advance by 1. Please reference the original postings ala the random image thread (EXAMPLE: http://www.bluegartr.com/threads/117...=1#post5839062 ).
This system is in place to advanced the discussion at a reasonable but informative pace as well as optimize the search engine system in updating itself easily within the forum engine.
This forum is not for the discussion, development, or advancement of exploits, cheats, hacks, bots, or other illegal third party addons.
Legal third party addon discussion such as damage meters, boss assistance systems, and optimized UIs are welcome and encouraged to be discussed in a thread built specifically for their usage. Class/Job Specific addons should remain in their class/job specific forums and listed in the new topic quick review and reference.
Once again there is a no tolerance rule in effect for bullshit. Waste our time and we will not hesitate to remove you from our presence.
