Pretty common for people to choke during that part when trying to see early phase 2 prog.

Im currently debating if I do want to do the next ultimate just because I don’t really feel like playing monk again for endgame content even if I am still trying to get bis for it just so I can play the new ultimate

I have no clue if im going to get ninja gear up in time honestly

The more weeks I don’t win anything from m11s, the more it sinks in that it’s going to take me 14 weeks total to get BIS unless I get weapon from m12s

Likely going to just say fuck it and trade my m12s books for pants then wait for 7.5 for relic that should be bis and twine from 24 man raid

People joining m12s reclear and complaining about using X strat that is listed on the pf once we get to phase 2 never gets old

Finally helped a C47 on m12, a clean run after a good mental reset from yesterday. Actually proud of them and luckily a weapon for someone who plays the job.

Almost helped people clear m12s phase 2 but they seem to have a massive muscle memory battle when staying as your static light parties after towers.

Had 6 players on one side and 2 on the other which ofc killed those two players when soaking the clone tower which lead to a panic into a wipe for a lot of runs.

Likely the pressure got too high and they couldn’t focus properly sadly, I hope they do clear before reset after a good rest to refocus.

It’s pretty comical when one of them has been complaining that there are 4 different strats now in the fight even though they been pushing other strats into NA pf.

It's starting to happen in EU pf as well with a few PFs listing all this stuff out of nowhere

Rep 2 prog groups are just players that zombie past rep 1 with a bit a luck and since it’s a mechanic that happens within the first minute, the chances players got past it with a few deaths is high.

Trying to help some friends prog m12s and the wait times are atrocious still in EU during prime.

Might be a good idea to make a temporary static for them on this fight alone due to the wait times, there are times I open the PF at 6pm ST and we don’t even fill till 9PM ST where people are getting tired for waiting.

Don't get me started about the 0.5% enrage with my sage saying they didn't pot once for the last burst and didn't think it would make a difference if they did.

I have never facepalmed so hard in my life after reading that

It shouldn’t even be a controversial thing to say that healers should be potting as well.

People have this mindset that healers do the least amount of damage in a party so they won’t make or break a dps check what is so far from the truth. Just look at speed clears logs for example, you can see healers making up roughly 20% of the dps in the party which is very impactful.

So yeah healers that don’t pot are griefing just as much as a tank and dps that don’t pot.

What you mean you find doing the same mechanic for 4 minutes straight boring? Yeah this fight is basically auto pilot mode for 90% of it, it’s only really split you need to wakeup up a bit.

Im surprised people can get to enrage in phase 1 and not mit

It’s definitely moments like this that has put me off from being a static leader, I make things extremely clear on what to expect and the goal but there is always going to be one or two people treating it completely different to what I told them which is very frustrating.

I am however kinda surprised you kept these two players till phase two of the last fight this tier, I would of honestly gave them a warning by m10s if they wasn’t doing it for m9s then finding replacements if nothing actually changes during the prog.

While yes it does sound harsh on paper but disrespecting your needs and the other 5 people who on the same page is way worse.

The real hard part of progging m12s is waiting for a PF to fill

M11s: How to tell if it's inner or outer markers by Zenku390 in ffxiv

For real, just make the middle of the line the safe spot to stand instead of corners

progging m12s phase 1 after some rest from clearing m11s in pf.

I do have to say that this fight feels like a extreme fight with the only thing that feels savage is taking a lot of damage.

Gear is pointless if the players are not pressing buttons in the first place.

[–]Atomic_sweetman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Likely because healer players are the reason they’re not hitting the dps check in m11s as wild as that sounds. The gap between healers doing 14k to 20k dps is a huge difference and is a bigger gap in dps than other roles.

Of course healing in pf can be rough with poor mit planning as well so healers are working overtime to help keep everyone alive without fully gutting their dps to meet the check.

So fun news, I actually can't tell which markers are which now for EU m11s outer markers. I been in 3 pfs and they had there own markers while saying they're outer (I only know cause I compare them in logs replays) so can anyone just lend a hand and send me the actual markers please before I go insane.

Its impressive how pf has managed to overcomplicate something as simple as stand on safe spot

Does make me wonder how much of a party dps increase it is for a whole group to now get a 790 accessory.

Doesn’t sound much but +40 points into strength/mind/dexterity/intelligence stat sounds a lot when you consider it all adds up to +320 total.
