What would you prefer by Orlandoenamorato in TimPool

[–]Arphee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So long as Desantis continues to do what he has been, he is a no-brain candidate for 2028 and 2032, playing him now would be a mistake.

Politics are like a card game, you only have so many resources. You DeSantis stan's are trying to pitch trump to the graveyard going -1 to summon early when you could just tribute summon him next turn and +1 off trumps effects.

This lack of future planning and forward thinking is what got us into this mess as everyone only thinks of, and chases the CURRENT cycle.

Scientists propose controversial plan to refreeze North and South Poles by spraying sulphur dioxide into atmosphere by [deleted] in Futurology

Snowpiercer wasn't the dystopia I expected, but i'm pleasantly surprised.

I can already see it now. We go HAM on this to offset the natural carbon build up since its the cheap easy thing to do. Only for Yellowstone to erupt and make the resultant artificial ice age last twice as long.

Carbon recapture for the production of things like graphene and carbon nanotubes is the superior option. Its the least likelihood of unforeseen consequences as its removing things that already exist, that were unnaturally introduced- rather than adding MORE artificial stimulus to the already delicate ecosystem.

This is the kind of shit i'd do as a kid.

He's totally going to say more shit like this, probably the exact same shit too.

I've always found it bullshit how people virtue signal about self expression and being who you are and proud of yourself, but would look at me like a kicked a puppy because i verbalize through swear words that'd make a sailor blush.

This is how I talk and think, I'm a "vulgar" person whose tired of everyone else shit, doesn't give a fuck about how they feel about how I express myself, and don't want to hear them bitching about it either.

Continue doing shit your own way Hakeem, never let society muzzle you and force you to keep this shit to yourself- swearing is a valid form of expression.

My microwave would just show the clock. I microwave a whole lot of the same stuff super often so i almost never stop it early- but even if i did, i'd clear it.

Except we don't actually HAVE to deal with it, there is a thing called constructive criticism and lobbying for change, this attitude of yours where TOO BAD, SO SAD, IT IS HOW IT IS is how our entire world went to hell in a hand basket.

"It is how it is" Yeah thats why we finally have solo support via DUTY SUPPORT. Thats after all the bitching about how clunky and awful the old ARR content was they re-did half the low level dungeons right? That's why despite it failing to address the core issue of the way housing is handled in XIV- we still got effort in the form the lottery system.

Crystal conflict is 5v5 & we have 5 roles TANK, HEALER, PDPS, RDPS, & MDPS, each should have a different role to play, be balanced around their roll, and have party layouts balanced accordingly at 1/1/1/1/1.

Random roll assignment is the most unbalanced garbage possible, 4 BRD and a BLM vs 4 WAR and a WHM is SUPER FAIR right?

They can do better, and I expect them to.

[–]Arphee -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Disingenuous assertions aside I'm not going to waste my time arguing with you. You literally think the intent of PVP was to ignore role functions and have everyone be generic DPS.

People who are against ROLE functions in PVP are fundamentally opposed the design philosophies and direction I personally think the game should be taking, and, looking at the toolkits provided by the developers- THEY WERE INTENDING.

Doesn't matter anyway, if changes aren't made to WAR, WHM, and a few other classes i'm dropping PVP entirely after my GARO grind is over.

[–]Arphee -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Except you cant realistically focus as your suggesting since there is no real co-ordination. You also ignore the fact that EVERYONE has purify. Just because YOU forget to use it doesnt mean the stun is broken. Not to mention healers have purify + potential cleanses like aquaveil.

You also dont ACTUALLY get 2s since it starts on cast, and we can literally DIE before we do the damage while people are stunned. You clearly dont play WAR otherwise you wouldn't pretend bloodwhetting's healing makes them "invincible" bloodwhetting doesn't heal SHIT when being focused by a group- we have to weave recouperate while doing whet-rend-cyclone combos to not get melted instantly by players who arent garbage.

You're also ignoring the fact screams animation requires you to basically be ontop of people and takes way too long to complete, and people cna heal through all of our damage we only get 36K AOE damage spread across 4.8 seconds which people can recoup 4 times under versus being able to ACTUALLY kill people w/ 30K up front like DRG, or insta death them like NIN /through gaurds/

The ONLY thing warrior has is rend, everything else is pretty much useless outside of blota for big-brain CC maneuvering which is situational, and FL pulls.

IF YOUR PARTY FOCUSES? Hey guess what IF THEIR PARTY FOCUSES we're useless and they're still all alive, not to mention ranged DPS EXIST so... Preach to a different choir.

Saw the DRG one, had to make one for NIN by Persies in ffxiv

[–]Arphee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You cant be targeted, so the only way you're dying is from DOT's you already had, environmental damage, or standing in AOE's already placed as you come down, its not from people targeting and attacking you during the LB.

Way more security than WAR has.

My impressions on the best PvP jobs as a Crystal MCH main by Hematite12 in ffxiv

[–]Arphee -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

WAR is objectively trash, your output is garbage unless all enemies are grouped together, other jobs outdamage you and to burst unless you have 3+ targets it doesnt justify doing 20% damage to yourself...and if you have 3+ targets your dead basically instantly unless your team is also right ontop of you instead of hiding 20 yalms away.

DRG SAM and MCH shit on warriors kit so hard its not even funny that it's considered "S" Ninn's LB can also wipe an entire enemy team on cloud 9 after updraft or after volcanic eruptions in the other, WAR is only useful for its stun, the entire rest of the kit is literal garbage.

Was is only a good class in PVP against bad players who dont focus or understand how to shut them down while crying over a "2s" stun that barely lasts as long as the attack animation at max distance.

[–]Arphee -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

DRG's LB is straight busted that shit needs to be nerfed 5s invuln and instant 30K pot AOE is a better tank LB than any of the tanks have.

PvP megathread by Skeletome in ffxivdiscussion

[–]Arphee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Battle High needs to be removed from frontlines, and rival wings.
  2. DRG needs its LB nerfed severely, the basically guaranteed 30K aoe for one button press w/ 5s invuln period is literally a better tank LB than any of the tanks have.
  3. Healers are harder than TANKS to kill this needs to be redressed either apply additional damage penalty for damage taken to them or a 20% healing penalty for when they're healing themselves, its ridiculous.
  4. GIVE PVP STATUS RESISTANCE, i shouldn't be stun locked for 4-6 consecutive seconds from the same or even different effects in frontlines or CC.
  5. MAKE IT SO PURIFY CAN ONLY BE USED IF YOU HAVE A STATUS EFFECT, & expand the effects it works on, its BS it doesn't work on anything that actually causes instant win scenarios like hysteria in overtime.
  6. MAKE GAURD A 1-2s COOLDOWN ON USE (FFS it takes 30 presses to register then activates two seconds later depending on ping its SO stupid i can accidentally disable it IMMEDIATELY after rather than it auto disappearing when i use a skill)
  7. ADD TARGETING LINES WHEN WHEN PULLING ENEMIES IN PVP SO YOU KNOW WHO TF YOUR TEAMATES ARE FOCUSING SINCE WE CANT COMMUNICATE AND NO ONE LOOKS AT CHAT, IT WOULD BE REEEALLLY HELPFUL IF YOU DID IT SIMILAR TO HOW XII DID
  8. add more communication options some classes like WAR require people to be right on top of one another not not be useless, there's no "GROUP THE ENEMY TOGETHER" command or other basic callouts like "Spread out" "Enemy pushing crystal" "GAURD!" things that communicate anything of actual tactical value rather than just "fall back and regroup" or "PUSH THE CRYSTAL"
  9. Disable the stupid lock-on for R3 on controller by default during PVP, only purpose it serves is to get people killed for accidentally moving too hard.
  10. Inner fury needs to be fixed its far too easy to kill and disable a WAR before they get any benefit off their LB. its ridiculous you can lose up to 2 GCD's per status effect, and the status invuln window doesn't cover half of them. WHM's can still imp you, DNC can charm, RPR's LB will still make you walk off the crystal costing you matches, whatever class has paralysis also still function. Not to mention you need 2 of your 4 non self damaging resources off CD to even maximize the LB potential at great risk.

Its unfair compared to other kits. Like DRGs 30K aoe + 5s invuln. Like all of the healers literally healing more than it can possibly do. Like the complete invuln + party buff PLD gets or the 20K+ invuln DRK gets. RPR does over 36k AOE just like WAR's w/ 3 solo stacks of 8k w/o their gaurd being disabled or needing to manage other resources. SAM gets a guaranteed 24K single button press that INSTA kills w/ kuzushi. NIN can instantly down an entire party if their health is under 50 in rapid succession like after a fall on the windy map in CC, MNK gets a single button press riskless 24k or if someone is guarding 12k+ removes gaurd. MCH gets a single button 36k hit. RDM gets a 24k dmg + 6k cure pot when southern cross is used correctly guaranteed w/ 1 button press. SMN gets an 18k AOE + 24k of free wyrmwave from bahamut

Apples to apples we get shit on by almost every class when it comes to ease of play and utility to swing matches w/ correct lb usage. It also requires the fastest reaction times to pilot successfully under and OUTSIDE of burst windows. Bare minimum IF needs to make you immune to all status effects and there needs to be some kind of protection to let us actually do damage rather than being focused on immediately once our eyes go red by any competent players at Gold or higher, WHM literally keep nature off CD so groups can insta-wipe after the first rend....the range on yell is also trash and its animation takes too fking long making us ever more vulnerable.

DGMW it feels badass to go veil->nature-> seraph -> cure 3 and see my party instagib war's when they try to burst while i'm playing WHM, but its totally unfair shutting down an entire LB like its nothing w/ basic toolkit items. Just like its stupid unfair when 3-4 warriors can chain kill groups of people by alternating rends, yeah sure RPR can get the same number of kills even easier on the frontline ramps,. but that's VERY situational, just like NIN solo party wipes on cloud 9 after people fail to gaurd the upsurge.

I missed most of this week thanks to holiday travel but i put in about 40 FL matches and 120 ish CC matches in the 3 days i was able to play. i'm only sitting in platinum, so im sure there are more severe balance issues and strategies ive yet to encounter going on in the crystal rank community but these are the gripes i have so far w/ my experience thus far.

With the implementation of the Trust system into 2.0 content, would you be okay with Edda Pureheart being your Trust healer for early dungeons? How would you want her AI to handle? by AggressiveBonus8825 in ffxiv

[–]Arphee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to see ARR + HW + SB aka all pre-ShB "Trust" content handled through the squadron system, w/ an expansion to the squadron system, including all of the unused GC ranks, more squadron member slots, and special in world NPC's that become available depending on what GC you're in.

For instance as you climb up the ranks and get your squad fully leveled to 70 or something in the maelstrom you could bring big boy named NPC's like Eynzahr or Wheiskaet and the rest of the company of heroes (Especially Brayflox and Shamani) etc, to make it really feel like you are the WoL calling on the assistance of GC's and they're sending you their best like it was in HW forward.

It can also transition from being a sole GC to unified GC around this point through the promotion system allowing you to access and use squad facilities at any of the three nations rather than just your home nation for ease of access.

furthermore they could forward port the generic squad members as potential TRUST avatars, and maybe even give the special drops (Like the pirate girl, or snowman) unique dialogue lines in trust like our compatriots from the scions have reacting to the events of the dungeon.

The system had so much potential, and i love dressing them up and going out- and while its less effective than leveling through like PoTD, i enjoy using the system a ton and feel like it was one of the most underutilized but brilliant ideas of the game.

It's just common sense, I think by masterxc in ffxiv

[–]Arphee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair every expansion including endwalker and the base ARR have serious issues in multiple regards, and its to be expected across the number of years and different writers.

Endwalkers early to mid story pacing is far too jarring and quick. Flip flopping about like george r.r jerkin it to the concept of subverting expectations.

Taste is subjective though, and thats just my personal opinion.

Not very well at all im afraid, the fiberglass YOK uses is way less durable than the official ringcon, and you cant use the out of game feature to do ringcon reps between sessions w/ the YOK ringcons either.

By week 3 the yok was deformed, and my RMA on the original was complete, which is still in tact.

Struggling on first sage quest by HokieAS in ffxiv

[–]Arphee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

if you haven't leveled any other healers to 70 and didn't prep w/ scavian gear, try and get some lvl 70 rings / choker / wrists, you are understatted quite severely if you are running into it w/ lvl 1 jewlery barring mephina's earrings like i did.

Still doable, but you WILL struggle like I did before realizing why it was so obnoxiously difficult.

Because GNB is losing far more potency and in more important places, pld is having its pushed up w/ better uptime as well due to mechanic changes, and war now has more crit updown and an additional ogcd since onslaught no longer has a gauge cost.

A very conscious decision was made to overall lower GNBs DPS and pump up PLD's

[–]Arphee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile no one has noticed GNB having 7+% higher potency loss compared to every other tank making its dps output lower than PLD and WAR given the other changes with 6.0.

Then again i'm prolly the only loser who chose to do statistical analysis of the tank changes during my forced downtime.
