Alexander Discussion, Round 2: Wait is this the easy mode thread?

[Arthars]

yea my bad, i was on phone earlier and fucking hate typing on phones

tends to reply like a tard

i got another account as well so i just roll everything and move on

[Ratatapa]

roll all the fuck you can, anything, everything for your main

when you got leftovers by then use it to gear your subs

end of story. this set of gears is just darklight +1 you guys are way overplanning lol

HOWEVER, seeing that it just takes 3 hours to get all 4 items if you roll anything, i guess that planning can keep 1 occupied for the rest of weeks

The reason i'm planning is simple

the Gear name Prototype, We have no idea if this gear is required for Savage, but at the same, time we will get it all one day

so guess i'll continu my way

ACC head legs legs
ACC head legs legs

[Taint]

Has anyone seen Bodyx2 drop in A4?

I really hope so or that floor is going to be a pain in the ass when everyone just wants body items.

[Arthars]

yup

i had personally seen 2x shaft 3 times in a row

no one wants them tho, everyone wants legs because you can get by the time hard mode comes, and 2 weeks later you can get the new tomestone body anyway the same time you get 4th shaft

[cute]

Where to trade item for the armor?

[Taint]

yup

i had personally seen 2x shaft 3 times in a row

Yeah same with my group. I was just thinking for weeks 3-6 everyone would want the body, especially if you need the body to upgrade to savage tier body.

[Seravi Edalborez]

Also might not be news to some, but in A3 if your DPS is good enough you can skip the 2nd hand phase entirely. It'll just go ...tornado > human > super human (final).

[Avarice]

35% marks the beginning of the final phase, so one can use that as a determinant on if their DPS is good enough to skip anything.

[Seravi Edalborez]

Right. I just bring it up because human > final does not have an untargetable skip like human>hand>human does.

[Ramset]

What's the trigger for the final hand then?

[Seravi Edalborez]

Based on fuzzy memory I would say up to Tornado phase is HP based. From Tornado it goes human and from this point human>hand rotation is time-based but final phase is HP based. So kind of like Turn 8 I guess where it's both HP and time.

[Shenrien]

If you're ever in a group that gets a second hand phase you can have a machinist or bard limit break the two of them and should push it into super human.

[Avarice]

For A4, the name of the move the Manipulator uses before sucking up the OT and a DPS is called Emergency Quarantine, so once you've killed one leg, you can focus target the Manipulator so you know when it's being casted to prepare for it. Alternatively, you can just set a trigger in ACT for "readies Emergency Quarantine" and this will alert you every time he's about to use it, even in the very beginning.

[Deadgye]

Seeking the peace of reason,
Shaping up peace last season,
Reason to keep believing,
Waking the beast - stop sleeping.

I know this destiny: you're caught in a trance and the mockings [aren't a kind of?] dream, no sign of advance, you see.
The mortal coil we serve is taut like a spring; step back, just step, two-step, just step, one-two-three.

Our world's a fantasy, no more than a test, and the feeding off the fallacy creating this mess deep down.
Inside this bleak machine with all of the rats, break free, [two things? two fangs? two something?] electricity.

Try turning up the volume,
Try turning on those [old ways?],
No time enough tomorrow,
[Foe turning?] let your journey begin!

Twenty-two seconds testing,
Fragments in one direction,
Celestial noise detected,
The million unsuspecting,
Standing to live to reason,
Time in the [near-far?] deepens,
Condition's begun [???],
Send 'em to plea to listen.

I know this destiny: alone in a trance, no escaping from this waking dream, no hope for advance, you see.
The mortal coil we serve is naught but a spring; unwind, too slow, too quick, to what you believe.

Your world's a fantasy, you failed the test, ever forging all-new fallacies creating more misdirects.
Move through this big machine with all of the rest--d/c! Dying, dying! Electricity!

Falling back right into the system,
Falling back on our own two legs.
We're falling back right out of the system,
Means falling back right into this space.
Yes, falling back right in with the system.
[???] falling gradually.
But falling back is better than [???]
Falling back into pieces again.

Sounds that we've been breathing,
Memory wipe and bleeding,
Everything deleting,
Radicals flow and freeing,
Energy slowly seeping,
Suspending all disbelief in
Synergy with our being.
Set off his[its?] fire and free him[them?].
--loop-

Time turning up the volume,
Time turning on us always,
No time enough tomorrow,
For turning back to where we began!

We got bored so ilvl 130 clear with 135 weapons :/, can it be savage time please...

A1 ilvl 130

[Carth]

The fact you can do it at ilvl 130 is a very telling thing, but good job on the challenge run. I like watching stuff like that.

[VentusInvictus]

It wasn't challenging really (as a DPS I should say, I think healers actually are the breakpoint here), it required good execution but honestly the fight is almost a dummy fight. We will likely continue this after savage, it was spur of the moment otherwise we would have posted vidsd of all 4 turns.

I think the only hold ups would be the DPS check of A2 and the heal check on A4.

[Jahaudant]

It makes me sad that a lot of full i180 DPS can barely do 75% of the damage your DRG is doing in i130. What the fuck is wrong with people?

pushing buttons in ordet is hard after several years of ff11 autoattack

[Destinye]

pushing buttons in ordet is hard after several years of ff11 autoattack

Lots of people still failed to optimize their damage there as well. Or hell optimize anything because making and pushing macros were hard too apparently.
