    You have lost yourself, I have no interest in arguing about swapping in IRL when you are taking damage even though I don't think that would often be worth it. This thread is about using a Polearm to do damage, which side are you on?

    Fuck off with stupidity.
    ......
    Yes, you're right, fully preparing yourself for the hardest shit in the game with low numbers is exactly on par with not having level capped gear for every level.


    AFK healing you in my chasuble since you're so anti-elitist, you won't mind at all.

    I'm Anti-stupid people, there is nothing wrong to fully prepare for tough stuff, but if you had fucking spelled it out way better about the whole thing from start it would've changed a little.
    Also, everything in that list, if you don't do it is gimped, so do you do all this at all times or not?

    Everything I do is low man. If people are not prepared, shit won't work. You should try it sometime, it's a lot nicer than filling alliances with retarded bodies in chasubles and afk'ing while you swing at shit.

    You know so much about me you think? It's cool to do those assumptions brother. Fucking troll, go lowman your own ass instead, it will be more productive.

    I really don't think anyone could kill Nidhogg with one of the 6 being a WAR, ignoring swapping weapons.

    The last sentence is too close to "we can do any fight in the game with nothing but af1" (which I'm not arguing against).


    But really, you're sounding way too much like a guy I play with that thinks haste/refresh rotations are super complex and playing X mage job is way harder than the idiot melees that just stand there and die all the time.


    Gear is a pretty big deal these days. With the level of damage a well geared 2 hander can put out while actually maintaining survivability being far above and beyond anything a blm could ever manage (barring sleepnuke stuff), your melee's gear is pretty crucial. A drk that relies on black pieces for ws is going to take some nasty spikes sometimes no matter how careful they are, a war without a -dmg set is going to get smacked the fuck down sooner or later, etc., and no matter how good you are if it takes you an hour and a half to kill tinnin, you lost.

    Now, obviously, if they can't take the 4 hours it takes to get a weapon from 50 to 200+ these days when martial mastery is up, and carry around a 4k stack of sushi and at least an engetsu and an iron ram lance, they're clearly not going to be that kind of player.

    But anyway I'm probably wasting my time saying the things that you completely realize, like I said I'm not sure how much of it is you being serious vs just pointing out how silly that kind of outlook can be.
    You mean like that?


    Also, everything in that list, if you don't do it is gimped, so do you do all this at all times or not?
    Quite literally everything except level cap gear and the only def set I have is for blu. Have quite a bit of gear for level capped bc's in storage and mules and what not, tho.

    hint: I'm not ignoring swapping weapons. I never, ever said anything whatsoever about fulltiming your damage down set.

    No, no, I am trying to say
    You can't kill Nidhogg with 6 people, one being a Warrior.

    Gimp.
    How many jobs do you have?
    Tons of sets for all jobs are fine and dandy, just that it's pretty tough and impossible to have ALL kinds of sets for people with several jobs that already require tons of equips for the usual you know.

    You can do it for 5 jobs without any mules and a little discomfort if you have fully unlocked MH/Storage/Locker/Satchel

    Depends on what jobs aswell. I have several sets for all my jobs, NEEDED sets, but not for level syncs and stuff that have little to no use at all. I was sarcastic back there with the list because of the whole thing.

    Hah yeah that's v. true, I'm thinking drk/brd/blm/mnk/pld, subbing something like RDM in for mnk could completely fuck me over.

    I'll give you that having a shitton of jobs is a reasonable... reason... to not have all the various this and that to perfect each job. I perfectly understand the ridiculous limitations of inventory in this game.

    I'm not trying to call anybody gimp really, I'm being a little facetious with starr (I thought it was more obvious, just like I thought the intelligent usage for IRL would be more obvious), my point was expressed in the big post I made: dun dun dun... shit is situational. It has its uses, and dismissing them on the grounds that they're not worth it to some people is silly.
