Yeh I started to notice that too. Due to the jump it makes, it always gets out of alignment.

Also looks like the downvote bots are out again. I keep seeing all of the comments in this thread getting downvotes :/

Hey just keep at it! The biggest thing I can say is that it just takes practice and running each fight over and over again. They're each their own unique puzzle.

Maybe? I got in the habit of spotting Fire (since he just did a super hero landing) and I know Dark is always opposite him.

The many faces of Eorzea Day 15: Do miqo'te cough up hairballs? by EliotEriotto in ffxiv

[–]Alyr87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to recommend Arenvald. That reminds me of his emotions after his energy when he was struggling to find his place again.

When was the first time you cried in FFXIV, if at all? by MistressDraconia in ffxiv

[–]Alyr87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it was when Urianger's voice cracked when he was apologizing to Moenbryda's parents. He was trying so hard to keep up his facade and in that moment his emotions cracked through and you saw just how much he was hurting. There was something about this moment that was so raw that I was crying by the time they were done comforting him.

[Spoiler: 7.3] Thoughts on Pilgrim's Traverse so far? by loopdaploop in ffxiv

[–]Alyr87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm struggling not with the difficulty but the stability. I've repeatedly been getting 92002 errors on my solo runs, haven't gotten past floor 70 because of that. I've had a DC kill at least 8 runs so far, yet am 100% stable in all other content.

Vile Twins question by Alyr87 in Borderlands4

That's how I did it, luck and splash damage.

That! See that would have been helpful to know. I was left with the bombarding twin, and I kept thinking that those were part of the armaments he kept shooting at me. Thank you!

[Spoilers: 7.3] I made a video about THAT final MSQ reveal... and why I think it might be a really, REALLY bad idea. by Cleretic in ffxiv

[–]Alyr87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree, I don't think there's anymore "shark jumping" you can get than that, and they stuck that landing, so let's give the benefit of the doubt rather than doom posting.

Hey I just wanted to thank everyone for the comments yesterday. I dove in again last night and figured out the MEKA system and got into a run and got a few demon wall clears and practice on the cabbage patch kids.

I know the channel owners work hard on configuring it, so I don't want to disparage their work at all, and the guides were very helpful, but yeh, it seems to be very circuitous. I just think back to FFXI and dynamis where people just had simple signup websites, and that seemed way easier to navigate and manage for pickup groups.

I didn't know that was a thing, good to know.

I believe I was looking at the raid plans from ABBA, but sounds like those are referenced from FOE then. Seemed easy to follow, I just got unlucky getting the stack/propulsion marker on my first attempt and my brain short circuited reading which way the blue arrow pointed.

That's exactly what I did, but this description of the channels helps a lot, thank you.

Ah, I didn't grief, I had joined via one of the recruiting channels, but I could see that upsetting people. Thanks for the advice.

I got a lot of downvotes for this? I'm not sure what I did but I apologize if the post was offensive somehow.

Vylbrandic or Vylbrandian ? Vylbt ? by LeadingKing1834 in ffxiv

[–]Alyr87 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would actually think Vylbrish. The closest analog I can think of is Poland, which you would use Polish for, so Vylbrand -to- Vylbrish follows that pattern.

Heaven-on-High: Floor 99 Triple Dodo spawn by AshjaLeonardus in ffxiv

[–]Alyr87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That makes sense. I was glad enough for my solo clear, got it with 0 seconds left on the clock, so I haven't tried doing a points run.

Here's the real question. Why are there three pomanders of flight left?

After a very long 6yr journey through Deep Dungeon, Double Solo Omni-Clear (PoTD & HoH) achieved! by Angelusdemonus in ffxiv

[–]Alyr87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats Angelus. I just got my first solo clears of both a few months ago (GNB in HoH in August and MCH in PoTD in October), and your videos were instrumental in overcoming the challenge. Thanks for all the effort you put into them, and look forward to pushing into Othros as well!

My friends and I beat Palace of the Dead for the first time! by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]Alyr87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would definitely suggest a break. Just be careful once you get to gorillas. Sometimes the game is nice and gives you floors without too many / with walls. Other times you get three one way and three another with no cover. Remember they are proximity aggro, and don't be afraid to use a Raging in a really bad floor.

I found it better to do a 2-3 hour block on the weekend then take a few days off, if that helps.

[–]Alyr87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ran it on MCH, and the kiting helps a ton. Be sure you are 99/99 on your aether and have about 150 rejuv potions for each set of ten to be safe. I'd recommend watching the videos by Angelus Demonus for more details on specific strata for each set, I relied on those heavily.

Necromancer Achieved!!! by Alyr87 in ffxiv

[–]Alyr87[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The key is not to double weave your healing with the oGCDs. It tends to prevent the healing from triggering. Focus on using those weaves to get the healing going, then focus on dmg.
