Personally I quite like standard movement compared to legacy so maybe make a note of it as being an option you can switch to if you're not feeling standard movement as opposed to a recommendation.

Arcanist can also upgrade into Scholar, a shield healer. It's the only class that can upgrade into two jobs, it's weird like that.

The Lone Badger posted:If I tend to solo, are any of the beginning classes particularly applicable for that? All of them are decent soloers, even if you roll a healer. Maybe a tank if you want a decent balance between durability and damage dealing so that you don't have to constantly keep an eye on your HP but also don't have to take ages to kill a mob? You also eventually unlock a chocobo buddy who will help you out on the overworld and it can do all 3 roles depending on how you spec it.

WrightOfWay posted:I once had a Paladin get mad at me for constantly leaving him below half health because Spirit's Within scales with health. Sorry dude, your extra 100 single target potency is not worth me losing Holy casts on mobs. What a baby. If you've never popped Hallowed Ground just to keep your HP up as you hit Spirits Within I dunno if you can really call yourself a PLD.

shoc77 posted:I notice at the start and end of dungeons that the group parties usually start with a friendly quip which looks like a generic quote which you select from somewhere? Hello fellow JP server player! As others have mentioned, auto-translate can be accessed by pressing Tab after typing the start of a stock phrase. The generic greet on JP servers is {Let's do it!} and the usual ender is {Good game!}.

If you do decide to do ARR relics, note that if you want replicas of the various stages for glam purposes you must either have the actual relic in your inventory or have handed it in to an NPC in Mor Dhona called Syndony. For expac relics after ARR you can dump the actual relic and still get the replicas whenever you want because they added achievement tracking of the various steps for each relic in Heavensward, but ARR is just built different so you will not be able to pick up replicas without the actual relic or having handed it in. Do not be like me and dump your ARR relics thinking they work like other relics and that you can just get the replicas whenever. I dumped two and managed to get one reinstated to me via GM but I'll need to redo the other and it's a pain.

They used to be different, but they normalised them all somewhere around late SB/early ShB so they're all the same now which is nice.

If there's one really good bit of advice I got for playing mahjong in general, it's that as a newbie, never ever ever call someone's discarded tile until you really know what you're doing, unless it is the winning tile obviously. Resist the urge. A fully hidden hand is always a valid scoring hand.

Antivehicular posted:Yes, use Arm's Length on as many trash packs as possible. It applies Slow to everything that hits you, which is amazing mitigation against 5-6 mobs. I think it's important to point out that in XIV Slow is an attack speed debuff, Heavy is the movement slow debuff. I know I got confused by it a lot when I started.

Yeah I usually do two groups or so in low level stuff if we don't have any aoe DPS because that's probably what my tank aoe alone can handle. If we have aoe DPS then well let's go ham for a bit.

No, all expacs are sequential. You have to finish base ARR main story (+ patches) to play Heavensward (+ patches) etc etc up to Endwalker.

Endwalker builds on a lot of stuff that was established in prior expansions, including Heavensward and Stormblood, so if you did skip them to get to Endwalker faster you might just not get what the hype was about when you get there.

Vikar Jerome posted:Well thats dumb cos clearly most cant pull it off. I had another duty there while i was getting dragoon to 50, and the tank ended up quiting after he kept loving up and the healer begging him to stop mass pulling, had two more after that and the tanks just... fought what came to them in the room and moved on to the next group and everyone worked toegether and it was fun and fast? Like, this "player strat" of mass pulling is easily one of the dumbest loving mmo dumb things i have ever seen in this game. You are not saving any amount of time at all and while you look big and hard trying to do it, 9 times out of 10 they always get everyone wiped. The game is loving easy until a dumb tank starts doing this dumb poo poo It's pretty dumb to mass pull in ARR dungeons but HW upwards when A) both tanks and healers get more tools, B) DPS get more AOE options and C) dungeon design becomes a lot more linear mass pulls is normal assuming both the tank and healer are decently geared. AOCs Pink Pearl posted:I just came back from a few years off of the game. I’m level 68, and the next msq unlocks at 69. I’m totally unsure of how to play whm on a controller but I don’t want to start a new class from the ground up to learn it because that will take forever to level. Any suggestions? Mostly just on how to transition after a long break from playing on pc to using a controller on ps5.. Find a training dummy somewhere to get used to your new buttons, maybe ask a friend to party up with you so that you can practice healing with a controller. After that try a low level dungeon or two to get used to it in a live environment.

I think the important difference is that unless it is literally the only video game you have on hand you're not expected to run their dungeons multiple times a day, not even factoring in other real life people.

Also Coils is a step up in difficulty compared to EX trials, they're Savage level raids, and ones with a lot of ARR jank at that. More power to you if you want to beat them legit, but just note that it's going to take you forever doing it trying to queue for it in DF rather than making a party in PF to find other people who also want to beat them legit.

There will also be a similar marker that looks like that crossed with a stack marker, that's a shared tankbuster. Both tanks need to stand together to take it (or one just cheats with invul).

Most tankbusters have a small aoe attached so it's usually not a good idea to stand too close to the main tank when you don't have to.

As a JP DC player I would add on that this is mainly for current EX/Savage content, old stuff usually still needs a dedicated PF group search rather than going through DF.
