Basically to o optimize all parts of the fight, I tanked the entire first section in Shield Oath which allowed the WHM to solo heal and the SCH to just DPS for the first 3 minutes. We tried Sword...
It can dodge every single normal auto attack in raids, AND on top of that it can dodge both Kastralle and Panzerfaust in A4S which are 6-10k hit attacks. I totally spelled those wrong, but german...
A paladin cleared a3s soon after the world first when even the devs weren't expecting it to be cleared that early. Eeep that was me; though honestly I only stuck with PLD because we were so many...
It depends what your healers want to do.
The more time in shield oath = more time healers can DPS.
We basically solo heal the first 3 minutes of the fight, so even using Rage of Halone for...
Hi Xenosan, I mainly mean so that if a DRG is not in the party that the BRD and/or MCH are not penalized.
Basically 1 of those 2 is required for savage, so the only way to buff their damage is to...
Yep but the difference wouldn't be as far off as it is now. Is what I was getting at.
Solutions for PLD's lesser DPS to make it more... fair?
Make Shield/Sword Oath instant swap
Add Piercing Debuff to Royal Authority so that PLD can replace DRG, like DRK can replace MNK.
It...
Are we playing the same game? In every single 3.0 8-man Raid you can dodge SOMETHING in the fight, even if it just only bosses auto attacks.
Also you could dodge Twintania's auto attacks and...
I only have DRK and PLD at 60 but from what I can tell right now,
PLD feels more comfortable to play, that's why I use it instead of DRK. Yes maybe I can do more damage on DRK, but I tunnel hard...
I was MT entire first phase, and then like normal(most people?) I was MT for 3 of 6 Cascade sections. Right now I just wanted to post this to let people know what PLD can do, if I had been OT at the...
I blanked out all other people in the kill and just left in just PLD, can see on the left the ACT parse has a different color for this attempt indicating a kill. errrr well it would be if i didnt...
Since people are talking about PLD DPS here :O
We just beat Alex 3 savage today, we used MNK/PLD instead of DRG/DRK like the other clear groups were running.
My PLD DPS at the end of the fight...
It was 17 parry = +1% parry rate at L50, not 100. It believe though it was 86 DEX/STR was +1% mitigation, which is gone now in HW. This means some Dreadwyrm pieces added nearly 3% parry rate per...
the pre-HW is that every 86? points of STR and DEX added +1% parry mitigation, that's removed so you just do the flat 20% now.
That's correct, you cannot prep leves for DRK, AST, or MCH as the XP from turning those in goes toward the class you completed the leve on. Though the Challenge Log XP will, which is about a 3rd of...
From what I understand
Alexander Hard Mode will be equivalent to how difficult story missions are, Praetorium, Westwind, Steps of Faith, Hard Mode Primals, etc.
Alexander Savage Mode will be...
Turn 13 Clear (Auto-Attack Data Only) with 512 Parry rating:
Auto's taken: 144
Parries: 20 (14%)
Blocks: 54 (38%)
Mobs included: Bahamut Prime, 2x Pain of Mercaydia, Storm of Mercaydia, 1x...
the new FBoC really don't want tanks to mitigated damage with block/parry, or something's off with the new BiS sets when it comes to tanking.
The most possible parry you can reach is somewhere in...
Some numbers get skewed too... not sure if you are looking at Auto Attacks only from the mobs or all abilities, but also with how long Bulwark Lasts and raises your anticipated Block Rate to 88%...
As Ellatrix is trying to get at 130 gear will not really help people beat Savage Coil that couldn't beat it before 2.4.
Many to nearly all mechanics will retain their similar "skill check" that...
As I queue for dungons as tank only now, if I see a BLM I try to speedrun or pull multiple sets at once. If i see 2 classes not proficient in AoE I will pull less at a time, especially if my healer...
Gear only makes the tank/heal/dps checks easier to achieve.
The main problem though with DF etc is that how they are designing the fights is that there are very very very very very very very many...
It's possible that Tam-tara is the default dungeon if it pairs you up with 3 other people that did Low level Roulette instead of pairing with (at least) one person who chose a specific dungeon.
PLD actually has a lot of options this go around depending on how they specifically want to gear themselves.
Theres a parry build, det/parry, crit, crit/det that you can attempt to gear yourself...
