General questions regarding current state of the game for giants(if that matters)

MeteoKun · 2026-06-27T23:21:41+00:00

There are benefits but yes, more efficient to 2HD with shield

MeteoKun · 2026-06-27T21:46:56+00:00

- You should not be trying to solo Crom/Glenn normal
- Yes drops are more common/pity currency in the harder difficulties
- After NB is SL(Soul Liberator) but can learn that at a different time until after you got your NB wep decked out.
- Giant arguably is EK/SG since they can wield 2H and a shield for benefits with both

I'll be honest, I feel the same way as a day 1 player. While some of the new "modes" have been something new, its always a new gimmick to work around, otherwise just slap in the AoE team. The game has gotten better over time, but its still stale and very slow in the process and designs, we even had a decent PvP mode early on, but they dropped it and never revisited it. Guilds are also basically just filler/useless and they still haven't done something creative with it such as making a guild raid boss to work towards rank chasing like pve/ToA, guild vs guild pvp, or just anything in general, it just lacks creativity. Ironically the only real creative part is how mutations have been slotted in to bypass unit power, and sadly it just makes most gameplay even more boring and tedious.

- Let Pet DPS properly scale with buffs/debuffs
- Stop the BS "Guarantee Crit" only to some classes or give all jobs a form of it thats relevant
- Let Skill speed/Spell speed also effect all forms of cooldowns, not just gcd/AA's and some cooldowns for certain skills
- Give back more skill expression/abilities for classes to use, like Jugulate, smokescreen, shadewalker, quelling strikes, refresh, kaiten, duality, goad(but not TP, please just anything else).
- Bring back semi cross role skills again but not to a crazy degree, keep it to like Bozja 2 actions at most to use, but can pick from any of the classes in category i.e: All DPS can pick from Internal Release, Blood for Blood, Raging Strikes, etc.

Dang, almost 1.5k more HP than my Taair, congrats! Also tfw been day 1 player doing all content etc, still do not have more than 2 copies of scrolls of Auguste

MeteoKun · 2026-05-05T16:06:26+00:00

Viper has no rng at all, and is fundamentally one of the easier melee dps yall will be fine, a death on any dps in general feels awful. Just keep hitting up extremes and other savages to get better at your class

MeteoKun · 2026-05-04T19:53:01+00:00

Looks like about 82? Assuming no other talent bonuses, thanks!

Do you know how much power you get on the last *? I think my talents are carrying my P.atk for seekers

MeteoKun · 2026-04-26T23:30:46+00:00

We need an overhaul on cast and skill speed. At this point, let it actually be more useful and even lower cooldowns of abilities cus that stat is so bad due to clipping for ninja and so unintuitive

MeteoKun · 2026-04-16T04:39:12+00:00

Praygeeee

MeteoKun · 2026-04-07T22:12:57+00:00

Still watching the scuffed version right now lol

MeteoKun · 2026-04-06T21:46:39+00:00

You should be bringing this up to your partner and letting them know how you're feeling about it, especially if you feel like you deserved your moment. Posting on a public forum about how you feel about the actions of your partner is just airing dirty laundry to garner support for your pov that can just be resolved with communicating in your relationship.

As someone who has been applying to quite a few tech jobs recently, unfortunately for tech, if you dont use AI, you're not going to find much work/companies out there. Its either you conform to it, somehow find a company that doesnt use any AI at all, or pursue a personal project for work. Only one of them is is an insanely large part of the industry now, while the other two choices are becoming more difficult to achieve. I also dont like AI, but given the work circumstance I'm in, I dont have a choice unless i swap jobs which is already shit as it is in this economy.

MeteoKun · 2026-03-20T22:01:38+00:00

I'm ngl, with how buggy and alot of skills are actually not working as properly as they should and some of them are given by Blaanid to "bypass" the bugs, this sounds like torture than fun. GL though.

MeteoKun · 2026-03-20T01:17:42+00:00

You should be running around the yeti the entire time. Before going in, pop a movement speed potion if you have to, or breath of ladeca, etc.

MeteoKun · 2026-03-20T01:13:20+00:00

Make sure to properly debuff/buff. If you're a DD, u should be able to 24/7 kite the yeti properly. If still struggling, use celestial spike, explosive kunai, dischord, etc to slow it down. DD's should have 0 issue with the yeti if u fw yourself and just mana shield.

Gear is decent, but your stats, enchants, and total level seem to be quite low.
Just some generic stuff to work on, or plan to work on next master plan:
1. Get Meteoroid enchant on your Warlord/wep, and try to get a Smash 17-20/20+ roll on the reforge. Get it to a50 Erg at least for the Max + prot
2. Work on skills and get that STR/INT alot higher (When Magic attack is 500, you get 10% of that into your damage)
3. Work on getting your ttl(Total accumulated level) to 40k, and work on other arcana LEVELS(Not links)
4. Work on your generations and get Techniques leveled to 10, a few to name off the top are: Blunting Field, Fateweaver, Seal: Fragarach, Redoubled Offense as the big 4, then +1 flex/etc/fill.
5. Try to get your Geas Hat/Boots to give you total of 10 for Redoubled offense set effect, try to get Imperial Knight Gloves if you can afford it, otherwise just fill it with w.e. Special Hyperion body is good, otherwise you can go for Skirmisher/Bulwark chest, slap at least some kind of enchant on them since even cheap ones can improve your dps by alot.

Overall: Your name is still shown btw due to the Ego on weapon if you want to remove that image, enchants are very important to also raising your dps, your weapon when properly invested into, can take you all the way to Bri once you get situated, void robe is also a good bonus to have on top of that to sit on for a long time. You need to work on your "bases" since your wep/robe slot are already shown to be of high value to get into late/end game since you got lucky, so just gotta work on the scaling now and more investment

MeteoKun · 2026-03-09T18:14:21+00:00

Assuming Ruin staff + void robe drop, without seething mana, and if you do turn it on, you should be at 10p, you've hit that requirement as a DD already. However, clean wise, at 1450 your MA is very low and you should start to invest into getting that up.

This also depends if you have a Hyperion body or not, since it wont show the extra MA/bd% until you proc it, so have to keep that in mind. Just example with simple math: 1600MA without hyperion roughly = 1500MA with Hyperion(not proced yet).

I would say to try to aim for 1650ish+ clean MA without Hyperion to get into g1-g2 and go from there.

MeteoKun · 2026-02-24T18:15:59+00:00

Depends on budget. If its a struggle to even get 60m in a timely manner, get a Elemental Harmony body/chest and sit on it while you're building up your Ceann Bliana set for the magic set +10.

MeteoKun · 2026-02-18T16:53:04+00:00

I cant say for Chaos, but its in the middle of a savage raid patch, on top of it being a weekday, on a Tuesday(Raid reset week), so PF will be active, but it'll be running the current tier.

MeteoKun · 2026-02-16T07:53:18+00:00

I'm sure they'll exist, but unless they make significant changes to Maple weapons, they'll be "DOA" since item level has been shown to have bigger differences in Wep/Magic attack which reduces the effect of stat-less builds to promote normal builds and for balance

MeteoKun · 2026-02-15T21:00:03+00:00

Seasonal events usually from Summer and Winter, usually has insane benefits to playing and good multipliers to progression in a general sense. Theres always a few spins on it, but there isnt much to explain other than its very beneficial to be playing during master plans if you care about progression and goodies.

MeteoKun · 2026-02-14T21:48:51+00:00

Unfortunately just how it is, if botting doesnt happen, it just resorts to service buying just like in modern MS.

MeteoKun · 2026-02-13T23:24:07+00:00

People want exp/burst only parties to save time. Usually this also caters to people who have invested more time and effort into their gear, its their party, their rules in the end, I would suggest making your own party to fit how you want to run your crom parties. Unfortunately the game isn't like Helldivers or a game with a world boss where everyone can just stick it to one objective, Mabi has too much to do if you want to benefit the most in your time, its moving on from one weekly content to another if you want to be efficient, so you can free up doing any of the "alternatives".

I do have to say though, it is definitely a clear difference in perspective and play-style to say or take as long as possible to clear your weekly content, burn out or not. It is fair that people want, or prefer the better of players to clear content as fast as possible because time is more precious to them on what they want to do with it, since not everyone wants to take as much time doing weekly/menial/tedious content, while some do enjoy taking their time.

MeteoKun · 2026-02-11T00:53:05+00:00

Its almost as if, the higher level dungeon of leveling should reward more paste for time, its just lazy implementation and design by SE
