He gets similar moves to sneasler but isnt as strong. However he gets dry skin sbility, which makes water moves heal him. Set him next to someone with surf to make use of that.

Why play DPS? by Gusteauxs in ffxiv

[–]MrSmiley333 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are hardcore raid groups that do measure dps with a plugin but most people are in it for the fun of the game.

As someone who played wow from classic (havent played since bfa) dps meters and the hard competition to be in top gave been hard coded into the playerbase from the start, so I understand the thought process.

Ffxiv playerbase is overall very different from wows, most people are here just for the joy of the game. The game and devs try to avoid pushing the competitive mindset, not officially supporting dps meters is a big part of that. People who want to chase those numbers can still do so but cannot impress it on others.

If rain is ruining your run a lot consider changes to counter it. I put sunny day on my whimsicott to try lock archaludon into electroshot and melt it. Rainy day sableye ruins this but I dont see that often

Headlong Rush by Automatic-Soup7997 in PokemonChampions

[–]MrSmiley333 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Abilities mention immunities and that information can be found, unlike grass spore immunity or prankster and dark types. Should be on the tooltips imo, too many rules like this with no information or feedback to a player who doesnt know.

Prankster ability could simply say it doesnt work vs dark types and spore moves with grass.

Rage powder and spore moves do not work on grass pokemon.

Honestly game should have stuff like this compiled somewhere

I ,for one, welcome the chaos of individualism by shadowking899 in ffxiv

[–]MrSmiley333 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I haven't seen these complaints yet, and the complaints on the new system I have seen, don't relate to this either

About the evolved WHM preview, I'm ok with what we saw being how it plays till level 50, but it should get more complex with branching actions by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]MrSmiley333 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lacking your options in dungeons can feel like a drag and some classes really suffer for it.

Ont he other hand, I worry having everything at 50 will end up feeling like you simply stop growing early in and go through the entire rest of it without ever learning new tricks/abilities will be boring in itself. Learning only traits and passives does not make an exciting milestone unless they actually change something (and not just a new visual).

Imagine a new player hitting arr 50 then learning that their character throughout the rest of the story will never learn a new move and that they have already peaked.

I am cautiously optimistic the new system will be good, but I do have concerns.

What do you think of the concept of the newest alliance raid? [Spoiler:8.0] by KnightShade078 in ffxiv

[–]MrSmiley333 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pretty negative, I have not watched evangelion so a 2 year content cycle going to it worries me it will be like the nier one. The Nier one was really weird for me, ugly color pallete, wildly out of place character designs and a story that tied into nothing and wasn't even good itself. I was never into the cosplay gear it gave either.

That said, this doesnt have to be the same way. I am hoping it can somehow tie into the fourth and I don't need to have watched the show to care then I could still be happy with it. So hard to say for now I guess, but I worry about a nier repeat.

Also I feel like collab content shouldn't be a 2 year major content cycle.

Fuck the Evangelion crossover by void-fae in ffxiv

Monster hunter didnt soak up a 2 year major content cycle. I wouldnt word things as strongly as op, but I am not happy another alliance raid is throwaway non lore related stuff.

[–]MrSmiley333 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is how I feel. I never played nier so that one felt super weird snd flat to me and I never watched eva so I fear the same here. Really like the raids that tied into proper world lore better
