Pro tip if you're rolling with a good WHM: They're probs gonna go right into Holy spam as soon as, or very soon after you stop moving. Don't waste those big defensive CDs during the time Holy spam's stun lock is happening, it's basically a free Hallowed Ground every major pull. Wait till mobs are no longer being stunned then pop your CDs

Another useful tip is that using a self-healing move while rounding up the mobs like GNB's Aurora and WAR's Equilibrium is useful for generating a lot of hate to keep the mobs chasing you, healing generates aggro too. It's especially good for mobs that aggro from really far away where you can't hit 'em to generate threat and get pulled from a single Regen tick.
@DarkDyllon4 жыл бұрын
an healer should never apply a regen on the tank during pull, if this happens then just provoke the missed mob (if more either go back a bit for your ranged move) Once you're in position you shouldn't have to worry about emnity anymore since tank stance is stupidly strong (i let my DPS friends get close to over taking me, 1 attack of the last in the single target combo attacks and they drop from 90-95% in the emnity bar to around 10%)

It is, however, a learning experience, just like with any other job. The more you do it, the less scary it becomes. And the finer points come in time with a bit of willingness to learn and practice. Mistakes are gonna happen, so get comfy with the idea that you may not be perfect every single time.

Amazing editing as always. I also wanted to commend you for presenting relatable and constructive benefits for pulling big rather than just focusing on speed. Personally I already do wall-to-wall because I agree that it's very fun, but a lot of people don't necessarily care about speed or efficiency in their daily wizard chores. As a result, they get their hackles up when "getting it done sooner" is the only reason to do something they perceive to be difficult, particularly when they're doing something that is otherwise pretty chill. You've explained why it's not only better but ends up being more comfortable and easier in a lot of ways which I think does a better job of convincing people of why it's so great. This is something I personally feel a lot of the FFXIV community actually struggles with, and a big reason why you see so much pushback to feedback in general. So props again for that, I think a lot of people could learn from your teaching method to better convey gameplay techniques to new players.

Good stuff. I would have made a mention about being careful using your cooldowns, ESPECIALLY Arm's Length if you have a White Mage in the party. Holy's stun is lost uptime on your defensive buffs and can completely waste Arm's. I'd also have mentioned sprinting and staying on the move, as well as my biggest pet peeve with tanks that's shockingly common: Tanks that stand there at the boss and have their head in the clouds, with DPS losing their buffs etc before the boss gets pulled. Coming from a healer main since ARR: if you're waiting for healer MP, don't. It's basically free for us and nothing in this game boss-wise does enough damage to where it even matters if we're topped up for a boss. Minor nitpicks aside, great video.
@SS2LP4 жыл бұрын
There’s literally no reason not to wait. Every single DPS lose buffs after a few seconds and need at least a few GCD rolls before they can realistically use buffs. Waiting a second might bring them off cool down so they can be used immediately at the right time to like you with burst damage phases to maximise damage output.
@DarkDyllon4 жыл бұрын
in nowadays endgame dungeons you don't really need that many CDs for wall pulls anymore. i guess only if the DPSers are shit and using single target on AOE scenarios. PLD has shelltron which can be used quite often, DRK had TBN (the best CD hands down tbh, fucking 33-34k shield and you get the damage buff for free afterwards) WAR has nascent flash now (and before they had inner beast orsomething that counted as a mini rampart) GNB has heart of stone (i think, only played GNB early on in the expansion then switched back to PLD) also GNB having his normal combo which gives him a small shield and having a regen ability. Enough to be sustained if you use too many CDs (like if in 1 encounter you use rampart and your 30% CD)
@nounours26274 жыл бұрын
@@SS2LP Nope. we're not talking about "burst" buffs but about constant buffs. Some DPS have to keep something permanantly active to dammage correctly. For the monk, it's speed stack (3 or 4 stacks) : last 16s but can extend it without limitation For the dragoon, it's a dammage buff (that unlocks skills) : last 30s but can only extend it once (20s longer) + if he looses it, he also looses his "super attack points" For the ninja, it's a speed buff : last 70s. Consume a "super attack point" to refresh. For the samurai, it's 2 buffs (speed and dammage) : last 40s each. Can only be refreshed through 2 different single target combo. Cannot extend. For the black mage, it's a dammage buff (that unlocks skills) combined with a ball stack (3 stacks) : last 15s but can extend it without limitation And for some tank as well! For the warrior, it's a dammage buff : last 60s. Cannot extend. Have to finish a 3 hit single target combo to refresh. For the dark knight, it's a dammage buff : last 60s. Cannot extend. Simply refresh with an OGCD skill. If you're taking a break for a good reason (irl problem, healer OOM before a big pull, explaining the strat, etc...) it's ok. :) But if it's not the case, don't stop for no reason. At best you're making the DPS spamming buttons to keep their buffs up, at worst they (and/or you) will loose their buffs for nothing. Not to mention the wasted openers if the tank waits really too long before a boss.

Just a note from a tank - Sometimes a single defensive is not enough to handle wall to wall pulls. Do not be afraid to double stack if you are taking too much damage, or if the healer is not keeping up with the damage you are taking. And most importantly, only pull what you are comfortable with. You will learn what you can handle with practice, and that takes time and repetition! EDIT: And be aware of what type of damage you are taking. Some mitigation (DRK/GNB) is magic defensive mitigation, this will not work on physical based mobs!
@DarkDyllon4 жыл бұрын
i would say, step out of your comfort zone every once in a while, you won't improve if you keep doing what you already know. On your mention on be aware what type of damage you are taking, i will have to mention that the only 2 ways to know if it's magic vs physical damage is to check either the combat log ("casting" is obviously magical and "readies" is physical) or via FFlogs which flat out tells you, but FFlogs for dungeons is not a thing. The other way, which personally should be standard in the game but Yoshi P thinks that not adding this adds a layer of strategy (spoiler, it doesn't DRKs will just use their magical CDs in the hope that it mitigates, but it doesn't even tell you if it mitigates or not since the damage rolls are random within a certain range) FF14 quick launcher lets you launch the game instantly without having to type out your password everytime (or the slow launcher in general) but it also has plugins, including a damage indicator plugin which colors the damage types, blue for magic, red for physical and another for darkness damage (damage you can't mitigate unless it's shields) No idea why the damage indicator plugin isn't already in the vanilla FF14, people always say "just see if it physically hits you, if yes then it's physical" Ok, i'll give my example on why this example is bullshit, Kefka for example in the Sigmascape raid series, his Tank Buster is an attack that throws pots and pans ontop of you (so you would think physical since the pots and pans are not magical but physical objects hitting you) but it's magical damage (remember having to invuln it or let my drk OT take over since he could easily mitigate more than i could) Another good example is Omega (O11) in the Alphascape raid series, he has a tankbuster called "mustard bomb" which is obviously a physical move right? nope, it's magical damage, i literally let the drk tank this as a WAR since he was better equiped in handling those tankbusters, with 2 CDs i would drop to around 10-15% HP, he would drop to around 35-40% HP.

@@DarkDyllon fflogs ids the bane to ff14 (as i have seen the community become cut throat after the site was made) :/ also reason why no dps meter in the gamer as is is due to divisive they are. should go to live letters where yoshida goes over it. a good potion of the community is ps4 as well. but dmg vs magic is pretty obvious if you pay attention to the telegraphs.

@@azura-moonstar FFlogs is only bad if it's utilized for toxicity. if people use it for personal improvement and don't bug other people about their parses (minus statics because that info is crucial in that setting) then I see no problems with it. But when people start jumping down other people's throats about someone playing poorly, then there's problems.
