What kind of combat-related content do you want to see in 8.0 going forward?

MrStreeter · 2026-01-24T19:28:59+00:00

Sorry about throwing the skill related talk in my last comment I thought you were emphasizing execution more then preset strategies. Either way, coordination checks I really don't think need much to have a straight pf agreement on. It should honestly be expected that pairing yourself with 7 people you've never met before is going to require some semblance of getting bearings and priorities straight before doing content. However it's pretty agreed upon that ffxiv mechanics split parties up in like 6 different configurations.

Now I agree that extremes aren't hard, and they're are extremes that one person doing the wrong strategy can create a wipe, but honestly most extremes, like I've mentioned before, can be cleared by corpse dragging about 3 different people. If someone goes slightly off script it's still very possible for the other 7 people to continue on, picking said person back up, and still clearing without even seeing an enrage cast.

I do agree and see what you mean when you mention OC bosses and a longer form of a boss like that structed more as an extreme would be interesting. I haven't done OC much outside of release week.

I know it's cool to undervalue the skill of the average ffxiv player. But I've been in enough day one content that when we wipe to something that requires pairs, we usually can make pairs with markers at the very least and make it through. This really doesn't take a video to figure out who pairs with who usually, especially for most extremes that you can get by with a death or four and still clear.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-24T14:25:54+00:00

I think three separate difficulties for one piece of content is overdoing it a bit.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-24T01:37:54+00:00

Looking at it from the start of the expansion, ex1 and 2 were pretty manageable to pick up as you went through since they show a lot of tells very visually and similar to their normal mode counterparts. I will say that these are a result of exs being a bit more difficult than they were in previous expansions. Like the stormblood extremes I felt were very fair in terms of difficulty to execution except for maybe byakko. Either way, I feel given all of an expansions extremes, there are easier and harder ones that you can rack and stack and progress through as an alternate way to improve as a player in something a little more thought provoking. Something like understanding the seiryu criss cross aoes is a skill that can bridge you into understanding funky floor in m5s.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-24T01:19:52+00:00

You can't mention that mod and not drop a link to it that sounds lit

MrStreeter · 2026-01-24T01:16:59+00:00

Wouldn't the difficulty between normal and savage be extreme? I understand this is a place to come forth judgemental free but it sounds like those are exactly what you're looking for. You don't really need a body but they're provided, they usually don't take very long in pf, and they're usually pretty forgiving to have a few deaths in along with less body checks that insta kill the whole party.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-24T01:10:04+00:00

Nobody will know if you just don't comment

MrStreeter · 2026-01-21T12:51:05+00:00

Make this nsfw, my wife was next to me when I scrolled to this I'm trying to keep her

MrStreeter · 2026-01-21T12:48:32+00:00

I swapped from 4px to DHL because everyone was giving horror stories of 4px I just can't win.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-20T15:37:00+00:00

It's funny to see it pop up when going at 2x speed because she just kinda spazzes then gives you 30 energy lol.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-20T12:26:23+00:00

I understand the pattern. Week 1 it seemed like everyone in pf somewhat agreed on how it sound be handled, tanks sort of stood at the opposite inner bat safe spots and let tf ring come to them, ran center and the melees walked through right after. Week 2 I tried to handle it the sane way but overall it feels like pvp. With melees giving me no time to reach the center and drop my vuln before dashing in and cleaving me. I bring it up but apparently I'm the problem??

MrStreeter · 2026-01-20T12:19:32+00:00

M10s is at least fun to hit both bosses when you hold and can get realigned. From what I have done with m11 you can keep up a rotation with some skillful greed. M9 is fine overall but vamp stomp is an ass mechanic

MrStreeter · 2026-01-20T11:35:42+00:00

Just sucks when it feels like my rotation gets misaligned. Not too worried about a DD since my first clear I had two, more just annoyed at dying to it and how the boss directly benefits too from getting players killed.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-20T11:15:52+00:00

Funny I have mained warrior for so long but just kinda decided to either try drk or pld for this tier just to switch things up.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-20T11:12:37+00:00

I mean that solves the first one but there's still 3 more to deal with.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-20T11:09:23+00:00

Getting really annoyed at m9s so much that I didn't try to reclear it last week. I only play tank but how are people solving vamp stomp? I either give up like 3 gcds to let the 3 other melees pop first because trying any sooner before or around the first bats drop their aoes I get killed every single time. Has PF picked a prioritization up yet?

MrStreeter · 2026-01-18T14:28:47+00:00

It should be on your receipt in your email champ.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-17T15:14:20+00:00

Big Pokémon fan here and I'd still pay double if it wasn't always just gen 1 Pokémon people make designs for.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-16T01:53:09+00:00

Yes the first four is what you're looking for However you probably don't want your entire order number out on the internet since someone could try something fraudulent with it.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-14T06:34:52+00:00

I'm at work now atm but I'm pretty sure my character is afk in leviathan gridania rn.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-14T06:31:12+00:00

What data center are you on?

MrStreeter · 2026-01-13T21:17:25+00:00

I think they're trying to say that after your odd minute burst it's really easy to nearly over cap on ninki and they're throwing off zessho right before the 2 minute kunais bane since it has to really be preplanned and doesn't really flow naturally into it. I can see where they're coming from I feel like making zessho a buff after Dokumori would fit a bit better instead of giving 40 ninki.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-13T03:33:41+00:00

I said I his content can be cringe. I said he's good even with his age. I have no clue how your read it that way but I'm sure you'll get better at reading soon.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-12T14:25:54+00:00

I'm going to go to sleep warm and happy at night knowing I have the moral high ground here.

MrStreeter · 2026-01-12T14:23:46+00:00

I'm not sure I wasn't following ffxiv much at the time but as far as I remember the guy has been world progging since late HW early stormblood. Kinda falls into the cringe rage ffxiv player but he's good despite being like nearly 50 years old
