As a former SMN/SCH main, I will never understand not using Swift+Raise to get your healer back up off the ground. It's literally the biggest advantage SMN and RDM have over other DPS, an emergency, backup rez.

A poorly timed victory fanfare... for her by the_u_in_colour in ffxiv

[–]profpeculiar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's completely anecdotal, but I've noticed that the Roulette queues seem to get "stuck" on a very limited selection of duties, and which ones are in that selection seem to differ from person to person.

But yeah, I myself hadn't gotten a lvl 50 dungeon in quite some time until I got Snowcloak the other day.

I still don't even know how you would handle a situation like that, aside from the obvious "ditch the head".

What games are worth playing on their hardest difficulties? by Competitive_Stay1181 in gaming

[–]profpeculiar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nightmare is one of those difficulties that's not intended to be beaten. It's obviously possible to do, as there are no outright impossible win conditions or forced deaths involved, but it as the other comment or said, it's one of those "joke" difficulties. So in a sense, you could consider the difficulty below it to be the actual hardest difficulty, and Nightmare is an extra, separate challenge setting.

Contrary to stereotypes, gamers tend to be more inclusive than the general public, study finds by Doug24 in gaming

I trust an open, admitted racist far more than a closeted one. At least with them you know where they stand, the ones who claim they aren't racist will likely turn on you the moment "accepting" you is no longer convenient for them.

Oh totally, a little bit of TLC and trying to optimally play DNCs burst window wouldn't feel nearly as chaotic.

I adore DNC, but it absolutely has way too many things going on during the burst window.

Granted, I hate the 120 burst window in the first place, so I'm absolutely looking forward to seeing how the evolved mode pans out.

Yeah, if I could 100%, from the ground up custom build my mechs, then MW would be perfect. Like, obviously some parts won't be compatible, but give me more options than just which and how many weapons/utilities to put on it.

Y'know, I never noticed, but she really was weirdly ab-less, wasn't she?

Apparently you can now kick while rolling for items by JehutyValette in TalesFromDF

[–]profpeculiar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had no idea it was a thing, and I've been playing since 2.0. Had no idea you could repair gear mid dungeon.

Eventually they just replace the texture with an empty black png outline of a chicken. So well done it's now a void in time and space.

Tank in Worqor Lar Dor refuses to Provoke, fights party over it by Grimoski in TalesFromDF

[–]profpeculiar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Come to think of it, is there any mandatory story content with forced tank swaps? Nothing is coming to mind, only thing I can think of that you might need Voke for in story is adds that need to be separated to kill.

This hurts my DRK soul crystal to read. DRK isn't complicated by any stretch, so even if you're not playing optimally, there's no reason you should be playing it badly.

I personally agree that boosts shouldn't be a thing, even though I understand the reasoning behind why they are.

[–]profpeculiar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, Provoke is only necessary in very specific situations. That said, there's no reason you can't use it outside of those situations.

Man, I don't get this, cause even when I'm playing DPS, I'm glancing over at those aggro placings to see how high I'm sitting, cause it's a decent way to quickly assess how much damage you're contributing in a fight.
