WTF? Garuda EX should only take about a minute, a minute and twenty seconds at most.

Quote from: oss on June 29, 2017, 08:01:14 PM

Well that was 50 minutes of a tank not turning his back away from the stones, a healer refusing to memorize when to take cover and a SAM bleeding her GODDAMN AOES ON THE LAST SPINY PLUME

Id give Garuda ex a 6/10 not enough footwork

You can try it for free until you reach level 30 actually, so set up an account and get a good feel of the game. See how you like it. It performs just as well both gameplay and control wise on controller than it does on PC. In fact I played on PS4 first and then jumped to PC, but still use my controller. Devs really care about both.

Ian · June 30, 2017, 07:22:57 PM

Correct, you only need to purchase the base game (A Realm Reborn) and when you setup your account you'll be given a free trial.

Its the least theme park-y MMO as far as im concerned and has plenty of soul in it. Pick it up.

Weaver 50 and 200k gil down the drain to buy the HQ mats for the quest. More to buy control materia god help me.

With DRG being thrown in the cuckshed, I've decided to now main SAM. Holy shit is it so much fun, and by the fury does it do crazy DPS.

Playing Bard actually feels like playing an instrument with the amount of finger work you can get going, goddamn is it fun

Bard was meh in Heavensward but yeah you do a lot

Ian · July 03, 2017, 03:59:20 PM

I'm a lancer at heart and I've always gone for the Lancer/Dragoon job as my main every time, but Yoshi really fucking castrated us with Stormblood. I thought it was going to be fine at first, but then I realized all those buffs to our GCDs was just to balance out the fact that we no longer get Internal Release, Phlebotomize, or Power Surge. DRG just straight up plays like shit at lvl 70.

I dont get WHM. Your offensive spells cost like 1/10th of your MP to cast so its almost better to not deal damage at all if the tank is being sanic. And i dont feel right just sitting idly by only healing.

Lucid Dreaming and Ether only extend it for like one extra pull. Is this just the way it is or what?

PLD's only and no slut gear allowed

Ian · July 04, 2017, 11:17:41 PM

WHM has always been the awkward healer, they buff the ever loving fuck out of all their attacks to the point where they're the highest DPS wise out of the three healers, but they consistently cave in to Netflix healers and adjust the class to accommodate them. All the while dancing around the issue of having to tell them they should DPS, so now they try to create this bullshit middle-ground which just fucks over the class even more.

Everyone who plays should be able to finish the MSQ. Balance for story required trials should be based around that, first and foremost.

If you want a challenging fight with fancy mechanics that not everyone can clear, that's what the future Shinryu EX is for.

Fucking Netflix-player scum. He probably doesn't even play the single-player FF titles because "M-Muh difficulty!"

EDIT: Another beautiful gem:

Quote

or ya know dont be an asshole and help people get their clear. ya know the reason for duty roulettes to exist

Duty Roulette: Expert, 50 & 60, Leveling, Trials, Main Scenario, Guildhests, and PVP reward you for doing content AT RANDOM, not to help new people clear content. Duty Roulette: Mentor is the SOLE roulette made to help new people clear content, which is why it demands you clear everything except for Coil and Savage Raids in order to access it.

Spreading this information to help players who don't want to The Royal Menagerie every day for the next month and also to spite this dumbass: If you want to do Duty Roulette: Trials and NOT get The Royal Menagerie, unequip gear to lower your item level to 284 or lower and then queue, then re-equip your gear when you're in duty.

Ásgeirr · July 06, 2017, 02:05:00 PM

But the story trials arent hard, you cant be that bad right?

Im playing with a noticeable delay from EU, you have no excuse

Ian · July 06, 2017, 02:24:08 PM

Shit players have been bitching about the difficulty of MSQ trials since ARR.

They bitched about Titan story mode.
They bitched about Garuda story mode.
They bitched about The Chrysalis.
They bitched about The Steps of Faith.
They bitched about Ravana.
They bitched about The Final Steps of Faith.
And now they're bitching about The Royal Menagerie.

They literally just want every story trial to be like The Singularity Reactor with Thordan and just face-roll the "boss" so they can experience the story. As if any other MMO or Final Fantasy game for that matter has EVER done that.

More potency buffs for DRG and a shorter recast for elusive jump sounds good. Now shorten the recast for Dragonfire Dive pls yoshi.

Ian · July 16, 2017, 10:02:23 AM

It's going to take a lot more than that to get me to go back to maining it. What it needs is:

- LoTD to initiate IMMEDIATELY upon reaching THREE eyes
- Gierskogul reduced cooldown back to ten seconds like Nastrond
- Dragonfire Dive reduced cooldown and also gives Dive Ready status
- Remove Dragon Sight. It's way to clunky to weave into any kind of rotation
