How about Botanist as "Botnis"? Or Curtana as "Curtinna"? Thyrus as "Tierus"? Ifrit's Incinerate as "Inshinerate"?

While we're at it, i'll throw in Allagan as "Alahgan".

Fucking Midgardsormr.

I can't believe people haven't said the worst offender of them all: coils

Wouldn't it be Kerberos or something then? It's been a couple years since I had any exposure to Greek mythology back in undergraduate studies.

**Rocl** · 2014-03-21 00:11

Was under the impression it was Kerberos in Greek and Cerberus in Roman (donno why I said anglicized)

**matic** · 2014-03-21 00:34

off current topic; I've come to realize over time that whenever I check my inventory/armoury chest/retainers, I will always find at least one Woolen Coif, despite constantly npcing them.

Speaking about french we're calling titan "tits" cause this is how the galka npc calls him in the french version (tétons in the storyline).

Yeah it's Kerberos in Greek with a hard K. I was more-so getting at the fact that this individual had only heard of the mythical being from FFXI and thought it was a unique monster, so his knowledge of the original greek name is probably not a factor, lol.

A guy in my ls calls Haukke Manor "bukkake manor"

He can't spell anything though so he gets 99% of place names wrong even when he's not trying to be funny

Didn't you just post this on reddit?:

Your highest DPS is only 319. 290-350 regardless of class, RNG, and locks is a bit of a stretch it seems.

**Rocl** · 2014-03-21 02:25

some guy named lord garuda that's the worst shit i heard all day

**Eanae** · 2014-03-21 02:35

Yeah, that's 1 parse out of 20 and only 1 person was under 290. I have some more with multiple people under 290, and have parsed some with everyone over. That was just the last one I happened to have parsed when I posted it. 330ish is about the best my group has pulled out on Twintania. A monk who gets no conflags, no dreads, and no liquid hell could EASILY pull 350 on Twintania. Anyone else with perfect RNG could probably come close with no mistakes. My group doesn't have the top DPS in the world by any means, so there's certainly better parses out there. Please get the bitter out of your ass Foxer. You kept asking me why people don't like you in tells today. THIS is why.

His alts are Lady Garuda and Prince Garuda. :>

Your quote said regardless of condition, any class full i90 should be pulling upwards of 350 DPS. Reword your shit I guess.

Just seemed like you were trying to start shit after our talk earlier.

**Foxer** · 2014-03-21 03:05

Yeah, no. Saying up to 350 for any class is a stretch, especially if you get targeted. Most I've seen my BLM do is 301. SMN MNK BRD can hit 350 sure. Maybe I'm terrible. IDK.

Well I mean I'm not saying everyone should be doing 350 dps or they're bad. 350 is probably the cap on what a good player could do under ideal conditions and 290 should be the floor unless you have bad RNG come your way. I guess I worded what I meant poorly. 301 is good for a BLM for sure. Was that with no conflag/dread/liquidhells? Each liquidhell in the final phase probably knocks you down 5 dps or so as a BLM.

**Dammerung** · 2014-03-21 03:09

280-330 is a more realistic ballpark for high Twintania dps. A few can probably top that if they are never the target of a mechanic with optimal execution.

I typically top out at 330 on BLM with only a few minor mistakes but I'm guaranteed to never get locked by conflag/dread since we do solo tank. This is with 0-1 liquid hells in last phase. Maybe I could push it higher if my fucking scepter would drop.

**Foxer** · 2014-03-21 03:35

^330 is pretty ridiculous IMO. Our MNK is the only one who can break 330-350 DPS with solo tank.

**Eanae** · 2014-03-21 03:42

Best parse I still have of Garuda on BRD is 326.52 without Allagan bow and that's with songs, 0 conflags, 0 dreads. Didn't count liquid hells because it probably wouldn't knock off too much for a BRD. 330-350 is really the "perfect RNG" goal.
