I appreciate the commitment to making the game play itself for you but I'm still wondering how you're managing to do all this. Do you have 4 separate installs all running at minimum graphics with the plugins set up to run X amount of dungeons per day?
See, I hesitated on voicing that myself, but, on top of this, I'm also wondering why you're parsing these runs as well. Natural assumption is to fully optimize all your bots for the most optimal Prae speedrun, but good God. At some point, I have to question if this level of technical autism is really worth it for what essentially amounts to a live service game that may either eventually shut down in your lifetime, you'll kick the bucket before EoS, or something else may more permanently keep you from continuing to play the game.
Would have been even better if Square didn't pussy out and stagger trash mob spawns
Forgot about that. I'm rather pleased that the Scions contribution to Tuliyollal is teaching the natives how to do a colonialism. Good job Blue Alisaie.
The best part is how blatant it was. The postlude mentions how hesitant and upset Alexandrians are about Zoraal Ja's spawn child being the new king, and how they got even more terrified when Wuk announced herself as his "guardian".
As the designated tank of our duo, husband had the same comment. He was pretty annoyed at how nearly all the DT dungeons prevented him from pulling more than one set of spawns at a time with artificial walls. But the boss fight mechanics in the dungeons, at least, were still fun. That's basically the only positive thing I have to say about DT.
1 install.
Half as a joke, half because I'm convinced that DRG is bad because it has a bad aoe at level 50.
Ah. So what I'm getting out of this is, this is how randoms are occasionally skipping cutscenes during Prae runs. And that those randoms are also retarded for skipping in a party with 3 other people who aren't using those plugins and don't know how in the world this random person kept skipping cutscenes.
It could also just be that they have a different language on. Each of the cutscenes have a slightly different length based on the language your voice lines are set to.
Not when they're so far ahead that they start fights minutes ahead of everyone else. We're talking enough time for arena lockout to kick in.
Oh. Yeah then they're using skipcutscene lol (It doesn't work in Decumana if you're in a party with people who don't have it because the walls don't go down if someone's in a cutscene... but only in trials/raids.)
Healing got made braindead easier, so yes. You're running into shitty tanks.
Found your problem. There's a reason why they call it the "Burger King crown".
Oh that's even worse. Dark Knights have gotten extra retarded with cycling their CDs as of late and it's giving everyone the perception that Dark Knights are somehow squishier than every other Tank.
You have a healer who isn't GCD healing because you haven't hit 5% HP yet.
Ideally, you should be cycling out your CDs on trash, not "using them all", and Paladin has the most mitigation bullshit than anything else.
well ya, you don't burn CDs on trash that doesn't need it just b/c the cooldown is up
As a general rule, I tend not to pop BOTH of the "big two" CDs (usually your Tank-specific, long CD and Rampart) if it's "single mob" numbers and I make sure to save at least one of the two for the next wall-to-wall because otherwise... I won't have it up in time for the next wall-to-wall. You would be surprised how much this mitigates the average DF shittery in every case EXCEPT for a healer being egregiously dogshit (not healing whatsoever, somehow burning their MP dry, healbotting, Freecure fishing, etc).
I dunno about that one, man. Unmitigated tankbusters slap ass pretty hard and "meaningfully punishes" is a pretty subjective metric when you may have a healer who's completely asleep at the wheel or, worse, dead on the ground, along with the rest of your party for being mouthbreathers that can't dodge AoEs.
