FFXIV Random Praise Thread: Time to melee RDM

[Destinye]

Unmentioned QoL in 3.4 update that is not losing your target anymore on enemies that change forms.

Sophia Extreme is also quite fun, although I feel them putting players back onto the platform after falling off brings the fight to Shiva Extreme-tier in terms of seeing how many deaths you can get away with while still clearing. So far the record is 8 deaths.

It was mentioned - was a bug fix actually..supposedly a bug, but who knows with SE lol. Sophia EX is fairly easy but it's pretty much the shiva extreme of heavensward since the next real update is the expansion.

[Fiye]

I've gotten to 20 deaths and hit Enrage at like 20%.

Speaking of Sophia finally cleared a damn ex primal within the first week. Rotating shiftwork can suck a dick.

Edit: I had a clear that turned into a farm party (We cleared on first pull and then went on another 3 hours).

16 deaths on the last pull. Dead right at enrage.

Spoiler: show

Raid DPS was 6568 in case anyone is curious.

duty finder -> xp roulette -> perfect run with AoE kills of ~6ish mobs at a time -> 3 levels in 15 minutes

:D

and here I thought it would take forever to finish up Lancer.

[Destinye]

Nah..it's significantly faster to level up compared to 2.0 era.

[Kaisha]

TIL: You can skip waiting on emote-driven quests by auto-running while hitting the required emote.

Age old complaint, but Warriors forgetting they're tanks. It gets so annoying standing there for 3-5 minutes because neither warrior wants to tank. While it happens on both JP/NA data center (never played on EU), I mostly see it happen on NA datacenter for some reason :l

I do enjoy the power of OTing though.

[Shenrien]

I love MT as war and then out damaging the OT war because they don't know how to do shit.

Stance dance or just stay in Defiance? Lol Sadly the latter happens more often than I wish. I'm not some DPS king because all I do is tank, but I try to pull at least 900-1k+ with this new axe, if not I am very disappoint in myself. I still need to meld materia, but I am loving the increased damage with the new gear, warrior is better than ever.

My group smashed A9S on Thursday but I don't even feel that it's even worth reporting.. the fight just feels way too easy. I had way more trouble with A1S and A5S, so the fact that we just absolutely smoked him in less than a week is a little strange. Then again, I was MT and that role is just... stay alive, piss easy. Are the rest much more challenging? I hear A12S steps it up.

A9S is way under tuned. A10S is a good 2nd fight, I found it fun to learn too, besides the dumb adds at the end, they just didn't seem to mesh well with the rest of the mechanics.

A11S is a great fight, one of my favorites, especially the last phase. Reminds me of T12.

A12S is a large step up as most final fights are but we are progressing much faster than with A8S.

Our (6 hours a week) group beat A9S and A10S by the 2nd raid night, and I'm really enjoying A11S so far :O

The sheer amount of dead time in A11S didn't bother you at all?

[Taint]

That's true, they could have made that way faster, more fun and less of a clicky gimmick. But the fight itself is well done.

[AlastorTGN]

I'm getting rekt by fucking Optical Sight, going to be a rough ride.

About the same here and our first a9s win came on a pull where our smn dc'd midway through.

[Alkar]

New seasonal event. That's all that needs to be said.

[Fiye]

I praise this video.

[SamanosukeShiva]
