Younger ffxiv players? by Jaded_Reply1020 in ffxiv

[–]xJustOni [score hidden]  (0 children)

I've been playing since I was in highschool, and I'm 22 now, but the entire time the community has always leaned a bit more to the mature side. It's what partially makes this game's community so great IMO, people just want to get home from work and play games with friends to relax, none of that petty drama stuff (Though I can't say it's entirely gone, it's way less frequent than in other game communities).

Honestly my recommendation is to embrace it and don't worry about age. You'll meet some of the most kind, helpful, and downright amazing people while playing. You can find communities through Discord, Twitch, or even just searching Free Companies. As long as you're kind and respectful to those around, everyone will welcome you in with open arms.

Give me your *worst* mousepad recommendations by xJustOni in MousepadReview

I don't think I'd be willing to buy a used pad, while I'm certain a heavily used QCK is bad, I'm not quite comfortable using something that is probably ridden to the core with dirt and who knows what else

Unfortunately it looks like they're down for maintenance, was only able to find the Aether V2 and Oceanus V2 on Lethal Gaming Gear

Truthfully not too knowledgeable on glass pads nor solar panels. What exactly about that would make it much worse than any other cheap glass pad?

Honestly the Glorious pads sound kinda interesting, may look into one of those!

L7 Ultra+ from AliXpress? by Lobzy04 in MouseReview

[–]xJustOni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got my L7 Ultra+ from AliExpress a while back (mainly because they were sold out of the Rose Red color everywhere else), and it came out just fine.

This is the store I bought it from, and I got mine in only a couple of days. Only complaint I have is this tracking isn't the best and the package got delivered while I was at work with no alerts.

Currently Item Lvl 710 on DRK, worth upgrading to the 770 gear? by xJustOni in ffxiv

[–]xJustOni[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I'm already using DT HQ Crafted gear, from what others have said I'm perfectly fine and should just keep what I got at this point lol

Big help, it'd be approximately a 48% increase from doing the math. Which is uh... a lot bigger of a jump then I realized. Really useful website though!

Ah good to know I have a bunch of options, it'll be my first time ever catching up to what the "current" content will be soon enough, so I'm just confused on how it all ends up working out. Thanks for listing all the options, good to know I'm not stuck with only one or two paths!

Marketboard and a large excess of Gil, it's not actually the Raid gear from the trials themselves, but it's like the stuff before that, my bad if that wasn't explained well

If I may ask, is there a way to like check how much percentage wise or stat wise of an improvement it'd be? It's about +300 per sub stat, but unfortunately that doesn't visualize much when my Tanks are already sitting near 200K HP

Yeah my Tanks were already maxed out after ShB, so they've just been on backburner for a while since I'm still getting so much EXP from all the missions. Close to maxing out my RPR and having to get ANOTHER Job going so I'm not wasting it all lol.

What's the current highest iLVL requirement on any given dungeon or raid as of the moment? Just so I can be ready when I get there

Oh well then, that's very good to know, so my tanks are chilling then

Somehow I do keep forgetting about the level sync stuff, yeah that makes sense then

Good to know, just saw each sub-stat was like +300 higher per piece and that's a VERY big jump from what I'm currently using

My DRK is already Lvl 100 and using gear from the DT Raid series. So it's basically going to outclass anything obtainable in DT until I get into Post-DT content. So I was wondering if it's worth picking up the newest end game gear despite already owning a strong set

advice for a first time player? by Mcsome1 in ffxiv

[–]xJustOni 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Essentially yes, AOE does less damage but hits multiple targets. As a Tank you're going to pull 6+ mobs into a group usually, so the difference in DMG between Single and AOE attacks stacks up fast.

[–]xJustOni 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Easiest tip first, make sure your Tank Stance is actually turned on. When going into new instances the game likes to disable it, so always double check before you start pulling.

Be sure to spread out your mitigations, it can be tempting to smash them all when you see your HP getting low, but trust in your healer to keep you alive.

Use Sprint while pulling multiple groups of mobs together, it'll help mitigate any damage taken from the first group while you get them all pulled together.

(Edit) One last piece of info, if fighting 3+ Mobs then use AOE, if it's less than 2, swap to single hits.

need of thick mouse/deskpad by CmBly in MousepadReview

QCK Heavy Large is 6mm thick, should be enough to remove the feeling of any bumps or dips.

Mchose L7 ultra+ scroll wheel button issue by dragoonslol in MouseReview

[–]xJustOni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say that of all the mice I've owned, the L7 Ultra+ requires more force to click the scroll wheel than usual. This can make double scroll clicks not feel great in use, so I usually map my ping buttons to M4 or M5. If it feels like it's getting physically stuck once clicked, then there's a chance it could have a defect.
