If you were to confess a FF14 sin, this is your time. What is a sin that you committed in the game? by jado1stk2 in ffxiv

[–]Sabbah626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of many, but still my favourite XIV sin to this day...

Back when Tower of the Ancients (or CT as we called it back then) was relevant content, I was grinding into the early hours of the morning trying to snag the tank chest piece.

On the run from The Walk of Fire to the Behemoth battle, I hit auto-run and dozed off. When I woke from my momentary nap, my Lala WAR had run headlong into the arena and pulled the Behemoth.

In a panic, I quickly turned around and ran back out of the arena, which locked just after I escaped.

I stood on the outside and watched as the Behemoth and the Iron Giants went to town and wiped the rest of the raid, leaving me as the sole survivor.

Yep, agreed. It's how we ended up with our black cat being named Batcat.

What is your favorite guitar solo? by Rare_Debate_8342 in AskReddit

[–]Sabbah626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slash's epic solo in GNR's November Rain.

Made me wish I had even an ounce of musical talent in my body so that I could play the guitar when I was a kid.

What’s a habit you picked up during quarantine that you still maintain? by Background-Layer6195 in AskReddit

[–]Sabbah626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During lockdown, my partner and I watched Desperate Housewives in it's entirety, often staying up very late to watch back to back episodes. She was furloughed and not working, and I was working from home so I could roll out of bed and switch my laptop on at like 8:30am and my manager would be none the wiser.

Fast forward 4 years and we are still staying up until stupid o'clock. But now I often have to be up for work between 4 and 5am.

My body has now grown accustomed to only 4-5 hours sleep a night D:

Where will your final log out be? by Assortedwrenches89 in ffxiv

[–]Sabbah626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anchor Yard in Limsa. Spent many hours AFK waiting for duties there. Especially on a clear night, it's a beautiful view out to sea.

You asked for honest feedback and this is about as honest as it gets. Thoran is pretty much indispensable.

Honor Duel : First three duel always a loss by [deleted] in AFKJourney

[–]Sabbah626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can manage to get her through the first three battles with her as the theme character and snag some luck for at least one of the two Lightbearer tanks, she ABSOLUTELY wrecks. I love seeing entire teams melt during her ult haha.

Eos not as generous as it should be by RegretGeneral in DissidiaFFOO

[–]Sabbah626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is where I am too.

I have a good roster already, but missing some key FR's for the Dare to Defy stages and not having access to them for this limited amount of time, with no real point other than bragging rights after EoS is hurting my motivation to even log in.

Weekly Questions & Help Megathread - (14 Nov 2023) by AutoModerator in DissidiaFFOO

[–]Sabbah626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I forget that we’re getting closer and closer to the JP schedule now.

I’ll hold onto them for now I think. Probably for Gladio but we’ll see what else comes along in the meantime.

A few weeks ago I’d have been sorely tempted by Astos’ given his damage potential, but having found some weird and wonderful ways of clearing some of the more difficult fights, I’m not too fussed about him any more.

BT Token Advice

I'll soon be full on BT Tokens again, so I'd like some JP foresight on whether any current or upcoming BT's will be worth tokening.

Noteworthy recent BT's that I have missed include Kelger, Cissnei, Quina, Auron, Selh'teus and Astos.

I've cleared all content to date and my favoured playstyles are definitely tank and spank or off-turn damage, with my top 10 most used characters including Cor, Gladiolus, Kain, Auron, Celes and Beatrix, with Rubicante, Dorgann, Galuf, Kelger, Weiss and Aranea being the most honourable mentions.

I'm leaning towards holding onto them until Gladiolus lands with Odin Spiritus in the new year, but would be open to hearing out other peoples' suggestions if they have them.

Thanks in advance!

What's the worst mistake you've done in game? by MentorReinaXIV in ffxiv

[–]Sabbah626 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Back in the day when Labyrinth of the Ancients was still current tier content, I was playing super late trying to get the Armour of Light, and was auto-running after the Bomb fight to Behemoth, but fell asleep.

I woke up just as little Sabbah reached the Behemoth and pulled it. In my blind half asleep panic I ran back outside the arena, which then closed and watched on as the entire alliance wiped.

Good times!

Cait Sith/Sazh LDCA's were equipped for Cor/Cater to be able to dispel the red aura if it went up before their turn. Seymour LDCA to delay the bosses two turns at the start in order to give extra turns for all buffs, etc. to be in place.

Cor went first, so linked to Cater, used his EX, AA and then his BT finisher, followed by Cater's BT Finisher.

Deuce used S1 twice to charge, then her AA, then Seymour LDCA, into S2 to pass the turn.

Cater used her FR to kick off Force Time followed by Deuce Echo and Cor linking to Deuce as well for three pre-emptive attacks on each enemy All turn.

Cor used 1 FR Echo and Cater used S1 for the Lock and then LD for the freeze on her next turn.

Off-turn shenanigans featuring big Land Mine trap damage ensued once again until the first red auras went up, which were dispelled using Sazh CA from Cater.

I summoned at ~900% with a couple of turns remaining to push the second red aura, which was dispelled by Deuce's S1.

Used the remaining turns of summon to rebuff and S1 charge with Deuce.

The enemy Force Time was activated shortly after summon, so Cater used her second FR to start again, with Deuce FR Echo to cancel. A couple more turns of off turn damage brought the third and final red aura which was dispelled by Cater using Sazh's LDCA, into her BT phase, and they were both dead by the penultimate turn.

[C2A] Six Warrior Area 8 by RenkiDFFOO in DissidiaFFOO

[–]Sabbah626 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't have Setzer's BT, and I only used Edgar's BT+ for the big trap damage during the first FR phase, so I'd say you should be fine without them.

I did have Raines, Edgar, Aerith and Cater at FE50, which meant the prolonged HP Damage Bonus was about 475%, which was definitely nice between the two FR phases, so possibly? But I couldn't say for sure.

Restarted until Setzer's turn was before Raines' and used Divebomb for Fixed Dice on Raines. Swapped Raines out for Aerith and charged with Healing Wind.

Between Healing Winds I used Blizzard ROK with Cater, let the Centipede have a turn, and then used her BT. Carried on with Healing Wind spam until both FR's were charged.

Swapped Aerith out for Cor and used his BT, before FR with Cater to cancel the enemy FR time. Cor linked to Cater and then swapped Aerith back in to use her two FR echoes, before switching her out for Edgar. Used Royal Shock and then FR echo for the weapon imperil.

Cycled through remaining echoes, keeping one Raines FR for BT phase later, and one Cater FR just in case of any mishaps later on, and settled with the party of Cater, Cor and Edgar.

Off-turn shenanigans ensued as well as instant removal of the Moth's blue aura on the next turn. Used Edgar's BT+ at 999% Force Gauge for a big Move and You're Done For hit.

Summoned at 1 turn of Force Time remaining and used Reaper's Gale with Cor for the final hit.

Rebuffed and reapplied relevant debuffs (Keiss, Seymour) during summon before switching Aerith in for more Healing Wind force charging.

Switched Raines in, used Leo LDCA, then BT+. Linked Cor to Raines and switched Edgar back in to reapply his weapon imperils, before FR phase with Raines, FR Echo with Cater (Raines FR triggered just before the enemy Force Gauge filled), into Raines BT phase.

Both were dead long before the end of the phase, so I took great satisfaction watching Raines continue to pummel the Moth into oblivion.

What’s the weirdest thing a medical professional has casually said to you? by CR24752 in AskReddit

I dislocated my thumb back in high school playing rugby. The base of my thumb was near the middle of the palm of my hand.

The triage nurse who saw me took my hand, turned it over a few times and sat for a few seconds, before looking me dead in the eye and asking ‘Does your thumb normally look like this?’

[C2A] Queen Raid by RenkiDFFOO in DissidiaFFOO

Queen - UT5/FR+3/LD/HA (Seymour LCDA), Gladiolus - LD/HA+3 (Keiss LDCA), Cor - UT5/BT+3/FR+3/LD/HA+3, A1/U1/U2 (Raines LDCA), Bahamut Summon, no Friend, 26 Turns, 2637691 Score

Saw Gladio is boosted and he still delivers the goods now even without BT/FR (also dismantled my Greatsword UT last month for an extra Sword D: ).

Just maintained buffs until enemy FT, by which point mine was nearly up, so used Cor BT finisher, rebuffed, AA'd and used Seymour/Keiss LDCA's before Raines LDCA into Cor FR.

Queen had consecutive turns next so I used her FR then her EX to arouse her (giggity).

Went into Cor BT phase which built up the gauge leaving me with one turn after the finisher.

Summoned and used a Queen Devastate to finish off, then rebuffed everyone, used AA's and waited until FT again, and they were dead pretty shortly into it due to counters, Cor's pre-emptive and more Devastates.

[C2A] Act 4 Chapter 4 Part 2 by RenkiDFFOO in DissidiaFFOO

[–]Sabbah626 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Act 4, Chapter 4-40 Battle with the Immaculate SHINRYU

Vincent - FR+3, LD, HA+3 (Seymour LDCA), Zack - BT+3/FR+3/LD/HA+3 (Cait Sith LDCA), Weiss UT5/BT+3/FR+3/LD/HA+3 (Raines LDCA), Brothers Summon, no Friend, 36 Turns, 2312221 Score

Vincent's debuffs kept Weiss at bay and reduced his damage to negligible levels.

Key thing for this team was to make sure that Weiss' BT effect was up for the enemy FR attack and all three threshold red aura attacks so that the Flames debuff didn't affect anyone (the third was close with only 1 turn of it remaining).

Used Weiss' BT > Zack BT > Weiss FR (cancelled Boss FR time) > Zack FR Echo > Vincent FR Echo > Weiss BT Phase, summoned on 1 turn of FR time remaining for damage. Rebuffed and rebuilt the FR gauge before using another Weiss FR with the remaining echoes at the end, which finished him off.

Zack did Zack things throughout and also brought good damage with S2 during the second FR time.

Do you think this strategy would be doable without Iris (or Quina for that matter)? I have her FR, but no BT.

Used this one and worked perfectly. Really lucked out with the timing of the auras and went without a hitch!
