Yeah this has been an issue for a while but they dont have a fix for it so they have to keep the buff cap

Debuffs have priority so no you would get a debuff and lose something like a buff instead

As far as i know JP just uses Discord and tries to instance all together or get to the amount of players they want in the instance and once they have enough people they sign-up for it. The complains seen very similar from both sides tho (Instance Prog and one person being able to wipe everyone)

I think most people's issues is that FT is not really designed for any type of players its in this weird high commitment to get in but "easy" fights which just doesn't seen worth for most people. Personally the only really bad part of it IMO is the instance prog part of it

As for the organizing, its designed like they just expect 24+ in an OC instance to just go up to the pedestal and sign-up which is also extremely unrealistic to content nowadays. I understand its designed like old MMOs but its honestly not really compatible with game's community

I agree that the average player is just not willing to put in almost any effort but when SE designs the vast majority of the content in the game expecting nothing out of people its kinda expected they complain when something goes against that

I dont personally think the relic grind is bad too. The Tower issues i do agree with, very weird way to design the content

Most complaints are either Relic or Forked Tower related. The Relic is IMO fine but getting bad RNG can be annoying since there's no use for the extra stones. As for Tower, the fact its the only other part of the content past FATEs makes it so people go in unprepared and just waste others time

This is the difficulty level that normal content at cap level should be but SE are cowards

Im forever mad that we had the successor to fucking Ragnarok Online and it just never got to be good enough to justify playing

This one is more because XIV has no transition of difficulty in content and a lot of people see it as a story only game and don't really care about interacting with basic systems. People just being selfish IMO

I actually think theres another side to this, if you are very cutthroat and are progging by yourself you are not ever forced to prog at a pace that's not yours. I think people who PF just need to treat it as like solo queing in a ranked game (League prob the most common experience for people)

Most of the good players i know in XIV are deathly afraid of being the one person that is dragging their group down and some of them are the best player in their statics. It is a very real way of seeing the game, i guess its kinda like a impostor syndrome to some extent

If you already care about not wasting peoples time the effort you put in will naturally be much higher than the average person in PF. Having progged even ultis in PF, the most important part is that people are trying and most people will understand actual mistakes instead of unwillingness to learn

Insanely funny that they need to have this thread

You can just ignore the colors and use the apocs themselves

This makes changing strats very annoying to as a community process because anytime you propose anything later on people go "But people have cleared the fight with the current strats already". Completely missing the point of the proposed change to begin with

My biggest issue with the PF strat is that you actually have to look at the icicles at the very start to dictate where you are placing the cleaves. You are looking for them but ignoring their spawning position on purpose just to have to look for it again later into the mech (the KB)

PF way sucks cause i have to look at other people and for the KB i have to look at whats not there instead of looking at whats there if that makes any sense

I dont know the actual reasoning for Sprint but ReAction has fixed these issues for like years and SE only just now made like Pots work properly but some other things still dont

Boss Rel has usually been better but people have historically been horrible at remembering positions based on the boss. Marker crutching probably

PF constantly wipes to Polarizing Strikes if the boss isnt facing the A marker even tho the mechanic is forcefully boss relative...

Oh, this is prob another thing thats fixed by plugins that i forgot SE just never fixed...

do you mean sprint is unreliable because it doesnt really queue? If so i highly recommend changing your sprint bind for a macro that just has sprint being used 15 times and it will legit always go off properly

Industry plant game

I play WAR once in like every 3 months and i drop storms eye for a few seconds at least once per pull lmao. People are insane

I just hope they put all the good songs we have from 8 in at this point . And that the enrage is cool

I miss TEA where they are all bangers....

Yeah but just like in the UWU Ifrit one it is just bad for an in-game song imo

The guitar is just not it at all. At 1:10~ with the distorted vocals and the high pitched noise it just sounds like they had a mic feedback issue
