IMPORANT: Hello guys, I'm sorry to say that I've misunderstood how Subtractive Palette and PIC's main GCD combos work. When under subtractive palette, you can ONLY cast subtractive magic, you can't dip between the two types of magicks, only swapping between single target and AOE. Sorry for the misinformation! :( EDIT 2: One more amendment, Tempora Grassa does NOT stack with Tempora Coat, so if Tempora Grassa breaks, the cooldown is reduced to 90s, like addle! It's still a very interesting ability, really loving Picto so far :) Hello, thanks for watching this video! As you may have noticed, I skipped out on a lot of things when talking about Starry Muse, because I only wanted to focus on the benefits the buff brings. Here’s some stuff that I missed: - Rainbow Drip also grants one stack of White Paint - Star Prism heals the party - Hyperphantasia (haste buff) is consumed even when the relevant spells are casted outside the magicked landscape. So you want to stay within the generated landscape as much as possible.

Your visual layout of the skills and abilities really did help me grasp it a bit more. Thanks for this!

[@omupenguin]

Very happy that I was able to help!

[@Alp-xe6ty]

Really great breakdown - the best ive seen so far and whilst i dont think ill feel confident until I've had a chance to actually use the iob for at least half an hour or so, this has cleared up somw questions i kept being left with and helped visualise how it will flow. Appreciate it must have been a lot of effort to make so thank you very much ! Your pace, presentation and articulation of the skills though is very calm and easy to understand. Id love to see more videos from you 👍

[@omupenguin]

Thank you so much, your words of encouragement means a lot to me. I hope I won’t disappoint with my upcoming videos!

[@melissavoda3730]

Out of all the videos Ive watched to today. This was the most helpful, please do more guides, and even the more indepth of this one!

[@omupenguin]

Thank you for the encouragement! This video series is something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time, so hearing this helps me know that I’m on the right track!

[@ramipotato6053]

Very helpful video - thank you for creating it! Your visual displays were really clear

[@ehymon8519]

I can’t thank you enough. Your video is detail, visually appeasing, and everything makes sense. Appreciate the effort you put and it shows. Looking forward to your future videos!

[@omupenguin]

No, thank YOU for watching! It really means a lot knowing that the stupidly amount of time spent on this video has accomplished its goal and beyond!

[@Incubookie]

Amazing break down, thank you for this. This job might just get me back into the game

[@shehan09]

Great guide! Very nice to understand when first starting out with the job

[@YYHuiyao]

This is so much effort, I love it

[@omupenguin]

Thank you! Comments like this make the extra nights after work worth it!

[@Addych]

What an amazing video! You made it so easy to understand. Thank you a lot!

[@omupenguin]

Happy to have helped, sir!

[@scrappedbits]

This was extremely helpful. Thank you!

[@omupenguin]

I’m glad I could help!

[@mynchNstars]

Hey thank you! I'm sure this is going to help me a lot :)

[@ThaliaLizette]

Very well done, thank you!

[@ryanc5572]

Thank you for this guide. Very informative and easy to understand. This job is going to be incredibly dull to level and I am dreading it, but I must cause I want to get the Master of Magic title.

[@omupenguin]

Glad I could help! This class is incredibly fun, and it’s my currently my favourite caster DPS. It just flows so smoothly!

[@peterfabell154]

I know it’s a bit early, but a video talking about how to maximize damage with a picto using this same format would be incredible.

[@omupenguin]

Yes, it is indeed too early hehe. I do think that would be a fun video since Pictomancer is so open ended, but unless I go Pictomancer in the upcoming savage, I’ll likely do a guide for whatever I’m maining first. Do keep a lookout though, it’s a non-zero chance that I’m going Pictomancer!

[@cabbagesoup3735]

This really helps me visualize the rotation. Great job! Are you going to do viper as well? Not many videos out there are visualized as nicely as this!

[@omupenguin]

Thank you so much, this really means a lot! I was planning on doing Viper, but this video took too long to make, so I have nothing done for Viper at the moment. I will eventually do one in the similar vein, but definitely not before Dawntrail drops unfortunately I have plans for a quick pick up guide for Viper and Picto when DT drops, but not to this detail, so you can look out for that!

[@Toksyuryel]

It took me until this video to figure out that Starry Skies is Leylines. This is gonna be fun.

[@Trickproof]

Great video. I appreciate you adding in the CC, though your voice was very understandable even without it.

[@omupenguin]

Thank you so much! This makes the countless re-recording of my lines worth it. :)

[@EtherealMemory]

thank you for the video and maybe it's just me but I had a hard time hearing you with the volume on your mic

[@omupenguin]

Hey thanks for watching! Nah I don’t think it’s just you, I think I don’t have a good voice, and my mic could definitely be better. But I would like to ask, is my voice too soft relative to the background music, or is my video too soft in general?

[@alexkim789]

the visual organization of this guide is amazing. thank you so much

[@zillahstar]

Great video. The music was a bit loud compared to your speech

[@omupenguin]

Got it, will lower it in the future!

[@yamchayaku]

I got my picto to lv 100 and their dps is completely busted. My Black Mage and Machinist are nowhere near keeping up. I'm loving the Picto but I know for a fact that they're going to get a HUGE nerf later on.

[@omupenguin]

They might do what they did for EW and buff the other jobs instead, and personally I think it would be more interesting if BLM and MCH were higher on the DPS charts!

[@yamchayaku]

@@omupenguin I seriously hope the MCH gets buffed They're super busy as dps goes but it seems they're really lacking, especially due to the fact that they lack any raid-wide buffs to increase dps. We're always getting destroyed by dancers in that respect.

[@omupenguin]

I heard that MCH (and BRD) are actually stronger than DNC right now! I don’t know if they’ll ever buff MCH to be competitive with melee, but it was my main in ShB and I would like to see it shine.

[@chickenmanicmrt1705]

I can't hear you

[@omupenguin]

Will reduce the BGM next time!

[@chickenmanicmrt1705]

@@omupenguin looking forward to it :)
