The Official Forum fail thread: This game wasn't meant for alts.

I don't see my ninja making any more damage than a monk... what are you on about? More aggro =/= more DPS. SE may have placed rogue/ninja aggro on a higher tier (like healers), that's all.

Yep. Different tier of aggro.

I wonder if that guy knows parsers exist.
Plenty of people "see ninja making more damage than a monk"

Has aggro tiers ever been a thing? I mean I guess he's referring to specific abilities granting more emnity than others? I have NFI....

[Kiarax]

WAR is definitely the best DPS, you seen how much enmity they get? God damn!

[Kirbyprime]

In other words, Quelling strikes actually reduces DPS, anyone who uses that is a noob and should be kicked.

[Arthars]

no wonder SE dont have built in parsers

the enmity bar is a DPS parser itself

i see

Dictator Obama who threw out the least executive orders in ages. I love OF.

Near as I can understand it, he thinks that different classes have different "tiers" of threat. Like, forget the known formulas for enmity generation (damage:enmity is 1:1, healing:enmity is 2:1? Last I saw anyway) and just consider that every class has its own modifier.

As we all know, a monk doing exactly 1k damage generates less threat than a ninja doing exactly 1k because of aggro tiers. It's why tanks generate so much extra (not because of combo bonuses or anything) and why healers generate a ton by doing zero damage*!

*Remember, OF hates healers who throw DoTs or Stones.

DDoS'ers? It's those meanie elitists again.

[agrotc]

Well who else could it be, especially when the issues started before the Coil changes even took place?

We have a purple weapon, the best in its line, being outdone by a BLUE weapon from the hardest raid. What's wrong with this picture?

Since when did this game follow the fact purple = epic/the best lol

[Zumi]

This guy just won't stop, can someone seriously be this dumb?

DDoS canons and other such tools are rented out to individuals so does not require having to be some group with a grand agenda or political agenda by another nations citizens to be the cause of it. Such groups are rare, what is not rare is individuals renting these canons to target servers of companies whom did something they do not like.

His response to the attacks happening before the coil nerf patch.

In fact the person who started the big whiny thread about second coil nerfs that is currently around 60 pages of whining had pointed out and whined about the upcoming nerfs to the coils 2 days prior to the start of the DDoSing and before knowing what those nerfs were also. Just the principle of it being nerfed was enough for her to whine about it without even knowing what would be. It is not hard to assume that others felt the same way and one of those pre-emtively decided to lash out because of it.

C-O-N-spiracy.

It's clearly a protest to the Michael Brown shooting.

[kisada]

ok i just have to put this here, thanks seravi LOL. i woulda ended up seeing it sooner or later anyway.

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ntlines-damage

Hacks? War frontlines damage
I just witnessed Kisada Exis playing warrior from Behemoth do 225k damage in a frontlines match where our team got completely destroyed... yet he still did 225K damage. How is that even possible? I'v only seen a few summoners get close to that kind of damage.... Is this possible on war? What am i missing here?

I checked out his profile after the match and hes not even max/min for pvp half of his gear still has parry and accuracy as the off stats.....

[Kirbyprime]

He's on Hyperion... sigh... anyways, haxx, ban please, etc etc.

[Lyall]

parry and accuracy is good because without accuracy you won't hit anything and without parry you take hits and die

Careful there, you really do sound like a native.
