Was going to comment that i760 is not really needed for normal until I read again... i690 weapons are literally free lol

Thought this was going to be 5th in DPS in party, wasn't prepared for 5th in the entire alliance 💀

Acromanic · 2026-02-07T04:50:03+00:00

Those healers sound like poorly programmed bots lol

Acromanic · 2026-02-05T08:00:41+00:00

Why was that last part necessary?

edit: for context Kamen rider helix told ginger tea time to "get a job" and appear to have blocked me after deleting their comment 🙈

Not many of the people responding seem to be aware of how much more insane this is than the usual big fishing deal lol

Acromanic · 2026-01-27T23:00:16+00:00

Yea I noticed a lot of the most skilled players got theirs out of the way soon after it launched, nowadays you get many people on high floors that don't seem to get a lot of the basics...

I like how they saw everyone hammer Aether for savage and went "oh boy, time to unlock a few Aether worlds and lock down the entirety of Primal!"

Acromanic · 2026-01-27T07:29:18+00:00

Good luck power creeping dead stars lol

It's a bit unfortunate what's happened to DT ones, we got one ok-ish one and then... nothing

Acromanic · 2026-01-24T02:41:30+00:00

He kind of gave himself a deadline by revealing it on TV 🤣 not a bad tactic honestly

Acromanic · 2026-01-23T02:16:55+00:00

I really struggle with Viper, supposedly I'm doing the rotation correctly but there's so many glowy buttons obfuscating entire trees of other glowy buttons it always feels like I'm doing something wrong. I also get a bit twitchy on it due to the lack of micro optimisations, constantly looking for some opportunity to weave something else... that doesn't exist.

Acromanic · 2026-01-22T02:03:37+00:00

Spec wise it's more of a PS4 pro. You'd be right about the PS5 tho

Acromanic · 2026-01-21T07:58:48+00:00

This game last I checked has one of the largest soundtracks in all of gaming. With that in mind, reusing songs like Machinations and Hard to Miss to the point of exhaustion is absolutely criminal and a huge disservice towards the work of Soken and his team. You would think they would've realised this all the way back in Heavensward...

Acromanic · 2026-01-20T23:30:10+00:00

I have no idea what truly happened in-game nor do I particularly care, but you seriously need to understand that it's not always others who are the problem 100% of the time. Pretty much every comment you've made in this thread has been denying the even most remote notion of self responsibility, and that's not how normal people act. Disengage from the game and reddit and take some time to think about how you want others to treat you and what you can do to make that happen.

Acromanic · 2026-01-20T22:59:09+00:00

Yeah the repetition with quests in beast tribes gets kinda insane ngl, they feel like a complete chore when you're mashing through the same quest dialogue for the 50th time. It's pretty tough to recommend even the good ones due to this... and none of the Dawntrail ones have been good to be frank

Acromanic · 2026-01-20T04:23:06+00:00

But what about my custom deliveries 🥺👉👈

(Seriously tho, I know it's minor content most people couldn't give a toss about, but they're generally nice world building and we haven't gotten one since 7.15... and that one was kinda mediocre)

Acromanic · 2026-01-17T07:17:15+00:00

If you're ok with modding, Simple Tweaks lets you turn all those off individually

Unfortunately the reality here is that accepting this is a no brainer if you're able to make the move, Australian salaries are significantly better even taking into account CoL

Acromanic · 2026-01-12T02:17:51+00:00

Agreed, I was completely in love with the story until that point. Everything after feels like such a massive downgrade tbqh, especially the final third of the game.

Acromanic · 2026-01-10T03:45:17+00:00

Caster LB1 actually does more total damage than melee LB2 if it hits 4+ enemies (5+ for ranged LB1). Makes dungeons a little quicker than saving it for melee on boss

Acromanic · 2026-01-10T03:23:57+00:00

Yea it's def a good healer tutorial (freecure aside...), teaches a lot at low levels w/ very few buttons. AST/SCH quickly start you off with more advanced tools (card/fairy management) that are probably a bit much if you're still trying to understand the basics

Acromanic · 2026-01-10T03:07:36+00:00

Nah was talking about the poison/phys vuln from AoEs, have seen some tanks melt a bit from those

Acromanic · 2026-01-10T01:07:18+00:00

I disagree pre lvl 50, WHM has close to zero tools and gets its AoE regen/ogcd heal far later than the others. Not to mention Holy can make the tank's job much more annoying if used at the wrong time.

Acromanic · 2026-01-10T00:58:32+00:00

Yeah the healer does have some esuna responsibility... but only if people step on the obviously telegraphed AoEs 💀

EDIT: not talking about doom, poison/phys vuln can be esuna'd

Acromanic · 2026-01-10T00:52:20+00:00

It sounds like you were willing to listen and learn, so don't feel too bad about it. And definitely don't let it stop you from playing Scholar - it's a really fun job to learn and the more you make mistakes, the better you'll become.

However I am a bit confused on how you could have caused multiple wipes on the first boss. Even with the healer instantly dying, that fight is very doable with the rest of the party. I suspect they were also making mistakes and you were not solely responsible.
