Make sure that he starts keeping the slashing debuff up instead of your warrior from now on. That'll learn him a thing or two.
A simple copy-paste since I already typed this out before!
(Biggest Damage and Enmity) Butcher's Block Combo is 150 -> 200 -> 280.
(Slashing Debuff and Maim Buff) Storm's Eye Combo is 150 -> 190 -> 270.
(Damage Debuff and Maim Buff) Storm's Path Combo is 150 -> 190 -> 250.
(Biggest Damage) Aeolian Edge Combo is 150 -> 200 -> 320.
(Huton Duration Increase) Armor Crush Combo is 150 -> 200 -> 280.
(Slashing Debuff) Dancing Edge Combo is 150 -> 200 -> 260.
Using Storm's Eye to keep slashing debuff up instead of WAR's highest potency combo is a 20 potency loss combo.
Using Dancing Edge to keep slashing debuff up instead of NIN's highest potency combo is a 60 potency loss combo.
Do the math, Galen!
Give me the math next on why I should pretend NIN ups my DPS more than DRG does
Too busy making charts for Overwatch version of fflogs for our static. We just need to convince Ketsen to be our 6th and always be Reinhardt.

I know this one! Because Litany will somehow always get popped at the absolute worst possible time when you are like two steps too far away for it to reach.
Hammers aren't swords. Hammers aren't swords at all!!
Yea, our scenario was the last one you described. Not nearly optimal, it was our second or third week raiding, but it made me aware of aggro issues in some cases.
Fixed the problem when we let the boss with the WAR until the end of the Shock Therapies. I switched to SwO after getting decent aggro from the Chimera and proceeded to DPS the boss until the Boost.After that, we swapped again.
I've been checking some discussions on the Official Forums, and it's kinda divisive how to handle the tank roles properly. Usually I MT and pull the boss, but there are some talks about letting the WAR pull, as he can get a crapload of enmity without losing much DPS as the PLD would, then proceding to swap right after the WAR opener so he can proceed to do his fflogs DPS as an OT.
There is also the notion that PLD should never be MT in the current state of the jobs (opinion of the Warrior's lord and savior Xenosys Vex), but that would require the WAR to play like a fucking DPS and put a lot of weight on the healers.
So Genji main, got it.

So... I haven't played since the main story ended. Is there somewhere I can catch up on any essential changes, I have ilvl 100-120 gear which was OK back then but is probably useless. I'll only be playing for 2-3 months due to recently finishing uni, surgery and a bunch of other factors.
The reddit post in op is 10 months old now. Also, what's the best place to refresh my memory of the story?

We should switch it up. Exelon goes Reinhardt and Ketsen goes Mercy.

Lame.
I was just thinking they could even include a trait or ability that increases your dodge chance if you're wearing no armor. Then it would be a true Dunban style dodge tank.

They did it. They actually did it. Now all the ERPers on Balmung will live out their darkest fantasies.
Or maybe it's a Maniac Mansion homage.
MogStation uses the exact same username/password your PS4 login uses. IIRC some people have problems because the username is case sensitive, so if it has a capital in it in your saved PS4 login (I think PS4 may auto-capitalize sometimes?), you have to match that on Mogstation. Otherwise it's the exact same credentials in both places.

Yeah same for us too.

Nothing on my end but I logged off over an hour ago and didn't go in Savage tonight. I'm sure it'll be totally comcastic tomorrow.
Must be the primal database since it occurred on Famfrit too.

I'm on Aether with no problems. Sounds like it's a Primal thing.

It sounds like an ISP issue. Everyone who has reported it so far has said they are on comcast. I'm with Verizon and absolutely no lag today (surprisingly)
Raid buddies had minor issues, nothing game breaking.
It performed pretty much the same for me since, SEA latency.
I heard this too earlier while doing Seph ex on Lamia. People were all over the place. I kinda assumed they were just making excuses for dying since I'm in Australia and was fine, but maybe there's some truth there.

Would be nice for XIV raids to go back to exclusive looking gear instead the same gear as normal, just dyeable.
Been thinking the same thing lately. or have the same base model and give the Savage version some extra stuff. 50% more spikes or 200% larger shoulders.
More armor designs is always fine with me.
Considering coil didn't have a normal mode, this doesn't make much sense >_>
There's still the current tome gear and the current raid gear, looks-wise.

I just want gear that doesn't look like shit. Midan gear is all right but Gordias was some level 40 looking garbage.
Gordian gear actually did dye alright--most of it was terrible in default colors, which I sort of think was intentional. The weird cloth flaps ruined some of the chests unfortunately.
Midan gear is mostly just kind of safe and there. I dunno.
The dyeable/nondyeable split is what people were asking for back during Coil when a Savage FCoB was being speculated about. The only real difference now is the nondyeable stuff can't be bragged about.
On a related note, where's the wild speculation over what appears to be a ninja wearing the HA aiming chest in the 3.3 dungeon preview?

I'll only be hyped about cross class glamours when someone shows me a bard using High Allagan healing gear.
That would be really weird. xD
I'd really like to use the Eikon caster body on Bard though. That would be awesome.
This is my actual worry. Most overexposed glamour in the game to somehow become even more widely spread.
Just think of all the Au Ra and cat waifus in these glamours too.

But think of all the money you can make farming T9!
When's the new patch hitting?
Also as far as Raiding is concerned. NIN is basically my best friend for getting those SICK NASTY WET NOODLE FFLOGS DPS for PLD. As their skill is basically a substitute for worrying about emnity
Oh no I'm gonna have to use Rage of Halone, save me nin-kun~

3.3 should be like 2-3 weeks from now
How does an over-melded healing accessory stack up against Lore i230 gear? Obviously you're losing a few points of your main stats, but does the melding make up for it?
I'd like to be done with gearing my Healer for the time being but I'm not sure if it's worth buying a ring or necklace when I have the crafted stuff.

I dunno about healers but pentamelds are often way better than non-bis stuff

Cross class glamour wouldn't make much sense, imo. Imagine a healer wearing tank gear.
I have always wanted heavy armor as a caster so I have zero issues with this.
Imagine a catgirl tank in a bikini or a Lala tank in a spring dress. Immersion destroyed!

Imagine a monk wearing a ghost costume and wielding kettles.
I am here to destroy everyone's immersion as Tanaka intended.

Think of it this way. You'd be able to wear Amon's hat no matter which class you change to.

Yes it does. When you try to accept the quest it will tell you that yu need x class at 15 and 30.
