FFXIV Random Praise Thread: Time to melee RDM

[Fiye]

7 PvP kills on my last 24 man seize rock. Finally got my first Battle High. Fuck yes I'm going places!

[Kaisha]

Got kicked by a princess tank (who had all tank jobs at 60) in high-level roulette while on my NIN who couldn't hold hate at all. No biggy since it's been 10min since dungeon start and wasn't at the first boss still.

Re-queue'd, got a pop within 30s, and got into a group where we cleared under 15min. Faith restored.

Spoiler: show

I can't even remember being vote kicked before, so someone really had a bee up their butt.

A lot of time I'll find it that those groups have a premade. Like they'll have a buddy with them.

Or worse, someone dualboxing. Without any kind of bot to help it of course.

After a long break decided to go back in and beat it with WAR / WHM, yay ~

Something good to come from the OF. SE is looking into reviving CT somehow. In all reality it's probably going to be Raid Roulette. Personally I'd like to see the ability to obtain items for augmented i120 raid sets that can be dyed added to the raid or weekly quest. Make them ilvl 130 or something.

Raid roulette: Did we get T4?

An unexpected thing happened to me last night. I was leveling MCH; I was lv42ish, so I was in Stone Vigil. I got DCd right before the first boss, and when I came back I was locked out of the battle.

I was surprisingly able to chuck my Rook into the battlefield, and it actually started shooting once it got hit by something.

Hotfix inc :/

[Seravi Edalborez]

New meta, 1 tank, 1 heal, 6 MCH outside the battlefield.

That would be a FFXI strat, no time limit battle.

Huh, interesting. Other things you can throw in the battlefield via ground target (Soil, Shadow Flare, lolFreeze) all do nothing to the folks/enemies within.

Before BST armies in modern XI most of the strats for VD fights basically were OP PLD hold boss, everyone else at max fucking casting range to avoid every single you-die TP move.

I guess it's possible that it was always missing or hitting for zero; I didn't dig into it that much. I threw it in, it did nothing, it got hit with swinge, and then it started firing.

Rook damage doesn't give mobs TP!

oh the blm and smn army strat fights, those were quite fun at some points in the FFXI life before zergs came into the picture.

Khim/Cerb/Tiamat were the best especially when their big moves got unlocked sub 30% or whatever.

STOP TP!!!!

I miss random bosses. Losing claim but have Cerb use Gates of Hades 5 times in a row leading to the other group wiping was awesome. Getting the same RNG but superman stunning the 5th one as a DRK was awesome.

Definitely.

I remember one time we were doing Cerb, and I was getting annoyed at us missing stuns on it.

I don't know if he took me seriously, but I said to Ryko, something like "I swear, if someone misses another stun on this thing, I'm leveling DRK to 75 tomorrow."

It got missed (I think we still won)

And the next day I took out my level 20 DRK.

I'm actually a little smug-proud that I did Divine Might the non-"18 BLMs manaburn the shit out of it" method first. Granted this strat instead involved kiting shit back and forth, letting TT hang out in the arena, and having a bunch of people die to Mijin and whatever Mithra does.

We don't have any badass floating Lalafell bosses in this game, XI was better.
