and if the ranged DPS aren't using LB on trash packs, it becomes another tank cooldown

Electric Phantasm posted:What's the etiquette on this? Like will people get mad cause they wanted to save it for the boss? If you're ranged or caster, you should always LB a trash pack. If a melee bitches at you about not saving it for them to use on a boss' last sliver of health, they are bad at the game and all of their opinions should be disregarded. And if there are no ranged DPS, frankly I'd rather a melee use it to delete the biggest mob in a pack. Or use it in the middle of a boss fight, not at the end, so you get the full effect. Like I'm sure good etiquette is to talk to your party about it, but if you're playing with people you don't know, the LB in a dungeon belongs to the first person to press the button. In raids and trials it's sometimes required for a mechanic, and if nothing else, I've seen many raids saved by a healer LB3 so I just leave it for them.

Most of my comms are for saying gg at the end of Frontline matches, or pity comms after a miserable raid. I never get one when I think I actually deserve it so it's best not to think about it

Raenir Salazar posted:My god tanking is stressful. If you have 2+ enemies, just use your aoe. The single target combo should never be used on a pack. Provoke puts you at the top of the targeted enemy's enmity list, though you'll lose that aggro if you do not then damage that enemy. In a dungeon, you'd only need provoke if you miss one of the enemies (it will have a green dot instead of a red one next to its name). Provoke is mainly used for tank swaps and add phases that are needed in some raids and trials, so it should never be used as part of a rotation. You should almost never need it.

Fortunately the other names you're given as options are all moogles that do have defining features, so it's a process of elimination. I guessed wrong, and the moogle was sad.

GilliamYaeger posted:Re: Retainer vocations. One gatherer, one combat class. Which ones don't matter as long as you have one of each. Pick jobs you're leveling, so you can hand them down gear. The retainer's gear does affect what ventures they can do and the rewards they get

Antivehicular posted:The important thing about that boss is that the Zu doesn't care about the hatchlings, just the eggs, and it's pretty manageable to just kill the hatchlings as they show up, so just let the eggs hatch and deal with the adds as they come. The real issue is errant AOE, especially on classes like DNC where it's core to the rotation. Having a DNC on that boss sounds like the nightmare scenario, really. A dancer standing in the dead center pixel of the arena won't hit the eggs. Good luck.

Your first retainer should be a combat job, ideally the one you consider your "main," so you can hand down your used gear to it. The retainer won't out-level you, but if constantly send it on ventures it should match your level pretty quickly. And then a gathering for the other retainer. Go ahead and sell old materia, there's basically no reason to meld gear below max level (some of the crafter and relic weapon quests will ask you to meld stuff, but if you do those you can just buy what you need when the time comes).

You should level at least one crafter and gatherer job even if you're not into those things. It's pretty easy to do. Besides getting a retainer to level, you'll be able to meld your own materia, repair your own gear, do the tribal quests for those disciplines

girl dick energy posted:Which is hilarious, because it explains both the Sultansworn, who don't believe for a moment that you're actually the one who did it, and the Brass Blades, who aren't being paid nearly enough to try to arrest someone who Another thing to remember with the Brass Blades is that Y'shtola probably killed a ton of them when she collapsed that tunnel while Yda and Papalymo obliterated a hallway full of them, so they got a really good lesson on not loving with Scions

You also miss out on a huge amount of story by not leveling jobs. Each job has its own story (which range from very good to very bad) up to level 70 (+an 80 quest) and then Shadowbringers and Endwalker have very good role quests that you'd need at least one tank, healer, etc to experience.

After a month straight of Dun Scaiths, I didn't see a single wipe. Deathgaze was only killing 2-3 people in most runs and sometimes not even that many. Diabolos on the other hand still turns into chaos when people put the gaze stacks in bad places, run a ball into the crowd, or run into the red orbs

Selachian posted:Plus the non-tanks who think they're helping when they run into the center meteor circle. (Only tanks can catch that one, everyone else who tries it dies instantly.) Not true! I saw a reaper survive it once. Probably with some healer shielding. He probably saved us from a wipe that run because no one else was in the center meteor circle.

There's a level 50 "8 person" map that, since it only has overworld enemies and no dungeon portal, is easily solo-able at 90. It has a low, but not unreasonably low, chance of dropping a few materials that are worth a lot more than the map. Not bad as far as gambling goes.

Qwertycoatl posted:Unless it has "Savage", "Extreme", "The Minstrel's Ballad" (or "The Binding Coils") in the name, you can queue into it on duty finder without knowing anything about it and you'll be basically fine. And once you get to SB and ShB normal raids, you'll give 7 people in raid roulette a more fun time than the a1n and a2n that are the bare minimum many people do to unlock the roulette.

hopeandjoy posted:I do wonder if they’ll nerf EW’s first alliance raid eventually, since that also is one of the few with a mechanic that can wipe everyone if one person is in the wrong spot. I think it does have enough leeway for 2-3 people to be on the wrong side? Could be wrong. I have seen it below 10% hp going into that mechanic, though, so I wonder if groups will start skipping it once we have the final ilevel Endwalker gear.

Mainwaring posted:There's at least one scholar job quest where you fail if you don't esuna a debuff on an ally which is some real bullshit. One of the AST duties was like this too. And you can't see the debuffs unless you actually target the ally, just focus targeting them isn't enough. I did almost all the MSQ duties on Warrior and most of them were pretty easy. Tank jobs are easy mode for FATEs solo out in the world, too, since you can just pull everything

God Hole posted:So this is my first "new" FF since FFX, which I'm realizing was over 20 years ago lmao. this also my first mmorpg Turn your tank stance on when you enter the dungeon (it will be off by default anytime your level is synced) and hit every enemy with your aoe, unless there is only one enemy, then you just face it away from the party and press 1-2-3. That's all there is to tanking at level 20. Later on you get damage mitigation buttons to use and you should cycle through them when fighting groups since packs of small enemies hurt a lot. Players generally expect dungeons to be speedrun, and when you're new you can take it slow but you'll gradually get comfortable with pulling more and going faster, because if you use the mitigations properly you can take way more damage than you think

People get confused because there are two different kinds of slow- movement slow and attack slow, and Arm's Length only does the latter. Also most bosses past level 40ish are immune to those kinds of debuffs, but you want to use it on packs anyway (or for its other function, to negate knockbacks)

I just go in blind to dungeons. I do new ones with the Trusts the first time because it feels story-appropriate to me but you don't have to do that. Dungeons are easy content, and while it felt to me like they started turning up the complexity of them from level 70+, you'll get better at the same rate so it works.
