Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

Do tp song/promote during the heavy metal faust and that takes care of tp issues. Until it's destroyed by the fire the boss has a 90% damage resistance so killing it faster doesn't help you kill the boss faster by much.

That was the general idea. Only problem is we were having issues killing Faust (we ended up needing to kill it in the SE quad, I think most groups kill it SW, and using LB1 for the first few kills of it. Near the end we did fine without the LB1) Once we started killing him more reliably I was able to either get TP or MP songs out during that time depending on who was having the most issues.

I'm also kinda hoping I can try doing a WAR start next go too to up our damage on Refurbisher a bit, but have to talk with our PLD to see if he minds me messing around with it.

Or be Humble and never play TP song ever, because *** the melee/tanks, I need to try and out DPS them.

Fah la la la laaa ♫

Oh hey, I forgot XV2 DLC1 was out today.

With pld and war it's better for the pld to tank the boss because warrior has decimate for the adds, charging stacks > double decimate with berserk on the first set wrecks them. Whatever you gain in more dps on the boss you are losing to the dps spending more time/tp killing the adds.


SE is the normal spot to kill him? That fights map always throws me as to what is actually north and south. In theory you can burst your dps and kill him on the first lava rise but it's not really something I'd recommend planning on. If you don't kill him before the second lava the boss just eats him and wipes you so if you killed him and didn't wipe you killed it in the right spot lol

I couldn't remember when the first generators spawn, I was thinking it was pretty close to the 30sec mark so it'd be just around the time I'd be hitting pacification. If it's earlier than that then mer.

You're right though, I'm far better used on the adds. I think it's mostly I feel so wonky on the opening of that fight because of how the beginning is timed out.

We kill on second lava but a lot of the guides I was skimming through seemed to have Faust down just before the first lava and moving into the Second lava area to create the Wall of safety for Scrapburst.

Either way, we were killing it so I was happy. Just made scrapburst feel more hectic I think.

But seriously... I just need to teach the BRD not to simply move towards me when it happens because she has this habit of gravitating towards me whenever I move and getting cleaved by Faust. >.>

I forgot about all these wallpapers you can get

If you do normal opener it would be after pacify yeah, you'd want to delay berserk till the adds for the bigger gain over all until your dps down them without really thinking about it... and faust should be something like this

It certainly possible to kill him in C before the first lava, just not really a thing to aim for while learning.

Edit: A B and C are like, when you first drop down and are facing trump referbisher A is to your left and blank right, B and C on the other end.

still weirded out by the fact that in the original ffxiv she's a little girl and my character saved her. then in the new one i wanna... come to her rescue...

So what you're saying is...

Face Boss towards A for Faust drop/Scrapline, everyone else Stack behind at C.

Tank rotates boss to B.

Move Faust to Unmarked corner, build wall, kill Faust, take his job.

I think the next phase had us tanking Refurb facing towards the C/Unmarked side, do you just just keep him facing A? Or maybe I'm forgetting a phase... I think next phase is the first set of bombs and when he gets his 2nd arm back.

Edit: Also thanks a bunch for the tips.

You only 'saved' her in an echo vision

don't you dare question my visions.

Minfilia is a terrible character. No amount of boobage can savage it.

Next phase start at A and shift up to B once the OT + Healer drop their generators. You'll have a wall build right after, I usually drop my rock on the border between the 2 and dame hides behind it as well. Adds die in A and party stacks where you want them to for the stack buster.

Since you said you had a bard have them be the one to pick up the alarm and just keep dots up on it for extra procs. The dots will kill it by the time it needs to be killed and it doesn't do much damage. It should die on the border between blank and C.

This guide had diagrams for all the things if that helps

peanut

i've said that about sehachan a few times, but you never know how a new arc or story can reshape how you look at a character.

This will help greatly. o.o

Now I'm pissed I didn't see these diagrams before. x.x

lol if you need a fill in for practice/learning feel free to poke me if I'm around.

You said she is a terrible character?

yeah

but the last season was pretty decent. there was even a beach arc.

Despite that I think she's still mad at me I wouldn't conclude as much.


But *** it, what do I know?

Will do. o/

Right now I'm more worried about finding an 8th. Luckily this week we can't do anything anyway since the weekend is nothing but holidays. But given we're using an unconventional group comp I'm interested to see what responses I get from people when I have PF up.

ok, you talked me into it.

that was an awesome guide, thanks Ina

Go on...

So Brave Heat is pretty much just Saiyan Spirit but for all races. Eh.
