Twintania downed because FFXIV is so much easier than [insert name here]

[Grey Jorildyn]

Yep, which is why staggering the little snake kills is a better choice than trying to meteor all 4 at once.

[Dammerung]

No, then you don't get the damage buff on the 2 new snakes. Killing the big snake should never be an issue; it's all about destroying the 2 new small snakes as fast as possible.

[Grey Jorildyn]

To each their own.

[Kipling]

I do it one way in my main group and another way in my alt group. There is no best way as they both achieve the same exact thing.

[Dammerung]

As long as stacks drop before Twintania comes back, whatever method is fine.

[Mrbeansman]

So this being bitched about on the OF cause apparently people really are taking 40 minutes to stand above Twintainia and kill it.

[Izzy]

I guess I don't understand how other games are able to check for this kind of stuff, but for some reason SE can't?

[Raldo]

I'm not sure if other games don't check, or they simply don't give a shit about the Y-axis so mobs could still hit you up there.

[Kirbyprime]

Lol... my static started using a second tank... except we treat the fight exactly the same as solo tank strategy. Superstitious voodoo and how apparently liquid hells never seem to target the tanks when we have an off-tank on final phase. >.> I mean our DPS is high enough to not care, we still have to tell people to slow down on slow conflags or risk killing it before fireball goes off.

[TheDirtyHobo]

If you want superstition, I did a run with another group where I was offtank. 2 and a half hours worth of runs, maybe 15 attempts in all, and I wasn't targeted by a single fireball or conflagration.

Masterful troll.

I mean it should be bitched about, because it's fucking stupid it exists.

I don't know why the guy bothers with Scourges though in that vid tho, wouldn't it be faster to just focus on Twin? Or is he just popping Thunder on them? idk idc I immediately regret watching that 2 minutes anyway cuz it reminds me of old-school XI ENM exploiting "set rise to 4, cast bio and afk"

[Seravi Edalborez]

Probably just made the video to make a point, rather than as a serious kill attempt.

You can't be target of conflag, FB, or DK if you're #2 on hate list...

[Mrbeansman]

Apparently people have been using that to get easy kills for 2 months now. The sheer of amount of "whaaaaa ban everyone" is annoying though.

They spent the whole time commenting "wow you must be really lucky or something, you haven't gotten a single one" during every conflag phase after like the 4th. I guess the offtank they had before me wasn't even second on the list, somehow.

[Seravi Edalborez]

I guess it's possible if it was a WAR with Defiance off and only alternating Storm's (x).

[OWS_Tonx]

With myself usually going as our OT WAR I'm always #2 on list without defiance. Throw like 3 BB combo on there and you're set rest of the fight just keeping up debuffs with the occasional BB.

people have been doing this since same thing since 1.0

before the beetle gil nerfs, you could sit in uldah and see the same 4 archers flag up for a duty and come back 2 minutes later doing that all day spiritbonding gear. I'm sure they were pos warping to the beetles and exiting wp

the only way apparently to combat this, because of shit coding, is to report ingame after seeing people do this or hearing them use it, and after reporting those beetlefarmers about 10 times and seeing the exact same ones for months that doesnt appear to work either

whorld first is gonna go to whoever gets a pos tool working after patch the fastest

[Kaisha]

Because the XIV crew never played XI and haven't learned from mistakes it rectified years ago?

Spoiler: show

RIP Cerberus wall

I'm surprised with people who complain about rubberbanding on their positions due to shit routing, that the game didn't have methods implement to do the same to people clearly warp hacking about.
