sassassin posted:I basically disagree with all this unless you're trying to burn through the game to level cap as fast as possible (I did this and don't recommend it). Sidequests are story and lore. There's loads of fun content in the game that will be missed if you're focused on MSQ progress. Leves are mildly useful as a new/free trial player for gear and materials - they're quick (timed "kill as many as you can" one excepted) and offer a bit of variety. I kind of agree on HoN. One of the tank lessons is showing you 6 enemies and telling you to pull 2 at a time so you don't get overwhelmed. Please don't tank like that, y'all. You can easily handle all six with a healer backing you up.

I got to explain what an Armory Bonus was to someone on NN last week but usually it's mischats and pet typing and RMT bots (fun to kick). I've heard other servers' NNs are fulla drama but Seraph's has been mostly chill.

Tanking is fun and I like playing chicken w/ mobs by seeing how close I can get before hitting Sprint while still getting the full 20 seconds oh yeah, use Sprint so you get hit less often on the way to wherever you're going to post up. It's not just to make the dungeon go faster, it's mitigation since you're faster than the mobs while sprinting and they can't all reach you to hit you.

Theris posted:Hit them once, which you can usually do without stopping. The DPS picking up aggro from one or two is not a problem, you just pick it back up when you stop running and they bring it over to you. If they don't bring it over to you that's their problem. Yeah this is what I do. If they peel away a mob and insist on facetanking it outside 'hawk range, well ... I've never seen that happen, come to think about it. Usually they'll just keep running towards wherever you stop and give you the mob. I'm considering what GilliamYaeger said and I might try that w/ the regular & ogcd AOE to make sure it doesn't happen, but it's not really a big deal when it does. A DPS can take a hit or two from a mob without perishing.

FuturePastNow posted:I usually just swing the first part of my aoe combo as I run past and then throw ranged attacks behind me until I get to the next group. Try not to overthink it. This is the big thing, yeah. You'll find a rhythm that works for you and lets you pull smoothly, so don't stress it too much as a newbie. As long as you're grabbing 2+ packs and rotating your mitigations, the chances of anyone expressing a problem with how you're tanking is very low. There are so many awful tanks in Duty Finder that I can promise almost everyone has seen someone worse at it than you.

FuturePastNow posted:the Trade Mentor crown is a clear statement that someone has priorities in the game and being good at it isn't one of them That's right. I'm here to click nodes and spend all my gil on materia, and I'm all outta gil.
