As luck would have it, SE are listening. The official FFXIV X account is taking feedback directly this time. Please comment there too! x.com/FF_XIV_EN/status/1879121281162870974 Also, Raven Feather breaks at 11:54

The dueling theme is actually called "The Gauntlet"

I've always wondered about this, thanks! Do you have sources on this I can also review or is this more through observation?

Addendum: I told you so.

The mob grouping advise is great! Will certainly keep it in mind.

While I agree that a tank should be faster than the dps to be able to pull all the mobs some dps really make that difficult by using gap closers that don’t require a target and in my experience it’s always been those dps that then start crying when they die because they went too far ahead and the tank physically could not catch up

I feel this video would be a lot better if there was context footage to what your were talking about instead of just FFXI footage. It would hit a lot better.

ty for information ur amazing don't listen to them keep going

Stacking mids isn't bad. Not saying you should stack them all on one attack, but if it's multilpicative like you're assuming. 1000 hp- 1000 damage=Dies in one hit 1000 hp-500 damage =Dies in two hits(Equal too A 100% hp increase) 1000-250= Dies in 4 hits (Equal too a 400% hp increase)

Wait Kiting does "mitigate" damage though in the sense of delaying an auto if they have no other mitigation in their kit to spend, If mobs are still somewhat healthy after mitigation has expired due to bad DPS kiting can offset the amount of damage intake by an extra 1 to 2 seconds for the healer to try and catch up with a OGCD or a GCD heal (if they have no more single target burst healing abilities) kzbin.info/www/bejne/aajCi2ika6ZgeM0

If you attempt to pull wall to wall with npcs you're in for a bad time and any queue pre ew is so dead you're going to have to play with npcs to make any meaningful progress lol

My rule of thumb is, if the tank is new to the duty, then they have a pass in pulling small for the first section of the dungeon, by the first boss they should get a feel for how the dungeon mobs are gunna go and could pull two packs at once minimum, but I won't begrudge them if they dont for the first time in the duty (this includes those who havent tanked that duty before, but have been through it before, even if they were a healer because duty support is a thing and they could have used that for their first time)

What makes any tank the worst and I refuse to commend them is that they never learn to use their Invulnerability, or using it as mitigation. Warrior can pull out 3 Holmgang's in one dungeon, other tanks 2 times, it's free mitigation. Paladin = No damage for 10 seconds. Warrior = Holmgang on 20% hp + Mitigation of 10 seconds when your hp can't drop + when 3 seconds left use Raw Intuition = Full HP. Dark Knight = Same as Warrior basically. Gunblade = Use it at 10-20% since it only now removes 50% of you HP.

People here crying about "toxic mindset" unironically making 3 people go for a 50 min dungeon with a healer afk because there is nothing else to use than glare. Pull big, die trying, improve. The difference with wow is that no one will hold you accountable, even less if you say you are still learning. It is more fun to get 30 mins of trying with a handful of wipes than 50 min of 1-2 aoe combo

Sprouts and players trying to Tank for the first time exist tho. At high levels it can be more valid, but low level dungeons are usually harder to pull big because everyone has less resources and there's not always experienced players.

I disagree that not going fast makes you a bad tank, As long as you finish the dungeon it doesnt matter if your fast or not, people need to stop makeing these dungeons spreedruns. If im not making any world records doing these then there no reason go fast.

i gotta disagree dont go into a dungeon if youre in a rush let the tank pull at their own pace

Some tank also pull small with 2 reasons: 1st: a healer is a sprout and first timer or 2nd: a healer is an Asshole.😂 I bet if some tank think of 2nd option, they already experience too many times 🤣 Or a 3rd: A healer had a delusions that they doesn't realize that they are a healer🤣🤣🤣 [point at a main DPS who decided to play a healer for level up purpose...poor them😅]

HELLO, THIS IS THE BEST TANK IN THE GAME THIS VIDEO GETS THE BEST TANK'S IN THE GAME SEAL OF APPROVAL ALL INFORMATIONS ARE CORRECT VERY NICE VIDEO AUDIO BAD HAVE A NICE DAY

Hey, that's exactly what i asked myself.

I hate copping out and just saying “They said they wouldn’t be putting stuff like the bozja or the exploratory zone until later “ but that’s just the case for this patch as well. They have learned a bit with Chaotic Alliance Raids and made it worth something caring for, though a bit more things to do such as more puzzles or alike would be good. Also please please Yoshi-P open up data center traveling, because having to purposefully wake up and transfer to a different server for later is very tedious.

well i started playing WoW and its a nice change of paste, would recommend giving it a shot

Im about to double your subscribers

The story is bad and poor execute, but the contents, like battle contents, side contents, are actually good. I enjoy the difficulty of Dungeons in this patch so far.

Enjoyed the video, and shocked to see so few views on it! Although, I do have to wonder why you went through such trouble to keep the discussion spoiler free, while then also name dropping the level 100 trial's EX variant

No it wasnt. I wish it was just boring. But it was much worse than that, it was the breaking of what made the previous 10 years of main story quests so great and the reason why so many of us played for so long. As a certain someone of light said in one of the most pivotal, critical and incredible moments in storytelling and gaming: "This is our future, our story". And Dawntrail commits the cardinal sin of not beign our story, and thus, for many, isnt out future anymore. XIV has always stood on its world building and narrative, its storytelling. The one thing it couldn't compromise or fail at: And it did catastrophically. Dawntrail is the second worse entry in the XIV history, only behind 1.0. In fact Dawntrail beign written, paced and themed has let many in the community to finally look beyond the MSQ - And under a new scrutiny, things like combat, mechanics, content cuantity and quality and even if its worthy of a subscription has been called out by community members and press. In fact, as a latin american, chilean, The New World is almost a mockery because thr world building takes a second place and thr entirity of it is consumed by the overwhelming, ever encompassing figure of Wuk Lamat and her future, her story. Musically even i found it incredibly uninspired, Dawntrail managed to make me even notice that Soken just didnt care much about a thematically sound... Soundtrack. Yes raid themes are great, buy always have been and they got nothing to do with the atmosphere. Living at the shadow and beauty of the Andes i expected at least some kind of motiff of andine music, but nothing of the sort. As a friend out it, Dawntrail is to XIV what Shadowlands was to WoW. And no, this in the end is not the fault of Wuk Lamat, much less her voice actress even if the lowercase yelling is truly bad and intrrupting a fight like that... But overexposure is the problem here, and yoshida already confirmed they are doubling down on it...maybe he should go and read those GDC slides he presented over a decade ago about listening to feedback. Dawntrail made me finally, after well over ten thousand hours, to decide to drop an expansion cycle in its entirity. Ill wait for 6.55 release to sub for a month and catch up, i will then judge if i even care about puchasing 7.0.
