Aegis + Burtgang Buff

LOL.Nice one sir, nice one.

Yep,thats exactly what I said.Since you said you cant block it at all,no matter if it was after this update or pre-update.So I stand by what I say.I can still block it.Just not as much as you by a (presumably) small %.You say it like non-aegis MDT/shell has just vanished from the game lol

Wait, really? So because someone is female nothing they say matters? Why, just wow. lol. Just funny since Kirscy is a girl and has pretty much come up with a great deal of what we know about the game today.

ITT: Taking a joke seriously.

You'd be shocked how many douches in this game think they are better because they have a penis.

I've generally accepted that 99% of the people that exist are idiots, ***, or douchebags.

I haven't found that 1% that isn't one of the above, but I'm leaving some margin for error.

Who takes girls seriously? I'm a fruit loop :o

What kills me most of the time... Hmm...
Truthfully, the mage behind me is a pretty big factor. I like to live in a world where i rely on my teammates, and if they have bad connections that night, or they get aggro, low mp, whatever, usually thats about what does me in.

Have i ever died from a straight melee hit? If we're all petrified i guess. But i guess the answer you're looking for is - No. Most times, I'm killed through a massive tp move or a spell

Here's the thing. Lets assume i do have, say, 1.6k HP.

Lets assume "Big monster name here" readies a spell to hit me for 3k damage unresisted. Now, i am the proud owner of a capped MDT set, witht he inclusion of shell 5, so that spell would probably hit me for 1.5k assuming i don't have any bar spells or carols on or any of that sentinel song bards got. Thats all variables.

Up until this update, that would do the very same damage to you.

But lets assume, just for a moment, that the monster can't hit that high. No, let's say he can hit for... 1,000.

So i'll take 500, and even if you take 0 damage with the almighty aegis with se's new fix, theres still more fighting to be done!

While i'm over here blocking every melee hit perfectly, and you block 1/2-2/3rd of them, our HP's are probably gonna look really similar in a few moments, right?

(cause mobs have a time period before they cast, let us not forget).

So lets assume we're solo, by the way. We're taking damage, and we cure ourselves. Lots and lots and lots of cures.

I'm getting mp back every block, you are not.

So as long as mr. monster here dosen't start chainspelling blizzard 5, i think i've won that fight over you.

The point - Aegis is probably better on Magic casting mobs
Ochain is better on physical ones

Wait... they are situational?

(I'm trying really hard to let my sarcasm and humor shine through)

ITT: Butthurt Aegis owners.

Should of been /war in the first place.

you had issues holding hate outside abyssea? zomgorzlolz

and for your info, ask ANY excal pld if they ever had enmity issues. While its true the 1/4th HP does not generate any enmity, people like you, yes the window shoppers, failed to realize that excal had low delay, high base dmg. Meaning a marchx2 excal PLD swinging away on Tiamat and making her moaaan with pleasure didn't need to do ***else to keep hate.
Also, it changed a 6 man cerb/khim/tiamat/nid fight from a 30 minute slow paced fight into a 5-10 minute modern abyssean post-proc zerg fest.

wut?

what about the ones wearing hauticlaires waiting for the big boys to die?

Enlight procs make higher multihit weapons more desirable in most situations. Otherwise you'd likely be right. If you let enlight run out before recasting you are gaining 25~ dmg/hit on average and you're swinging that much more frequently. So overall you aren't losing much if anything from regular melee swings, but you're gaining weaponskill frequency.

I think its descended to

ITT:PLDs cant tank without Aegis

or sattva rings

I am so sick of random people taking stabs at me on here lol.

Window shopper?! You imply i want the sword in the first place.

People like me?

I swear to god relic holders need to come off thier little dream pedistol and join the rest of the people. Whatever, i'm an idiot for using empyrean, i get it. I'm an idiot for not abusing a LS to get a slightly useful sword. I'm Sorry.

Is this what you want me to say?

i'm still kinda wondering about these plds keeping hate from meleeing tiamat. makes me feel like my plds were slacking back in the day.

Yes, Excalibur was a very game changing piece for a good pld who knew that focusing purely on defense wasn't the way the go.

Even with that, it falls behind an Almace atm.

correct me if im wrong, but didnt pld have access to a plethora of mdb gear already, so if you had an aegis and shell, couldnt you use mdb gear over mdt gear or still achieve full haste without gimping your magic resistance?

Aegis also shares another thing in common with your analogy. You'll never touch either one unless you shell out rl cash for them.

chainspell stun so he never flies, was more secret than the modus veritas conspiracy

you do realize that Blazed no longer exists per say, since first day of 85 cap, and the name has changed?

you do realize noone cares

and what's the point of that? we use to have drks who would soul eater kclub him when he landed, but that has nothing to do with plds keeping hate with excal. if your cs stunning your zerging. otherwise you sleep it on the ground cause it's easier for the pld to handle while it's in the air.

here's how you moron. touchdown>melee>rape>ws> takes about 20 seconds if you have a well geared excal PLD buffed right before she flies again. The amount of hate generated from forcing tiamat to take off in less than 2 mins will last you till the next touchdown providing you're not a total tool * i have my doubts about you* and have a good barfire set where you take anywhere between 9-30 dmg

Your plds didn't melee tia? Please tell me you didn't sleep on the ground?

weknowthis

oh lord. sleep tiamat on the ground.. wtf is this ***, terra staff tactics?
Even if your PLDs are *** HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE and can't sub nin, don't know how to merit sentinel and hit their Sentinel JA incase they are /war, you can still have BLMs rotate stuns on the ground and use that time to strip away her HP.
did you grow up in abyssea?

my blms could always bring it down from the air. pld use cure cheats and flash to hold hate. nuke crazy bring it down, rest mp. if we had a kraken dark who was bored we'd let them play around to make it go faster, but for the most part we would low man so yeah we slept it on the ground a lot.
