I wouldn't be so quick to say this, because this is what we said about DET.

Also, I can't find that weight you mention on chocobro forums.

I don't know if you're understanding t0rin wrong, but crit doesn't have diminishing returns.

Every point of crit will give the same DPS. Crit damage is static, and the amount of crit you gain per...

If a BLM takes the Allagan over a SMN in the same party, I will smite them wherever they are.

We shouldn't have to use outside fixes when it's never been a problem in any other game.

I have to use WTFast.

I'm in the US.

I have Verizon fios.

I cannot beat titan extreme without...

Do you even know what the issue with coil drops was?

It was solely on turn 1, and the problem was that one of the chests has twice as much loot as the other.

They don't.

It's RNG.

fyi
Auto Attacks start queueing about the last 1/4th of a cast.

If you just continually cast every GCD, every 5-6 casts you'll see an auto attack netting 5-6 DPS.

Along with that, auto attacks...

And then they have no swiftcast tri-disaster or resurrection for a minute.

Yes, it is equivalent to that. How is it not? If you let one class or the other nuke away, they will burst you. Have you...

The thing with FFXIV, though, is that I, and many others, only have a problem with FFXIV.

I'm a good player.

I know I am.

But I have to use WTFast, and I've never had to do that with any...

We did.

If you don't understand basic terminology(DPS vs. Damage, what a parser does), then please do not continue the discussion. There is virtually no difference, DPS-wise, from a 10 minute...

This is exactly why I stopped PvPing.

Tired of it being solely about gear/gear grind.

I miss the first year of WAR..

ITT: Whining about timed burst(on a 5 minute CD)+overgearing.

Another Garuda, and there's my Sic Ifrit.

Mine were just Obey+Obey.

My understanding is that Ifrit would scale similar to DRG/MNK, where DET is exceptionally strong because of their auto attacks. That would be why with such a "small"...

For one, Garuda is better suited for crits(slower bigger hits, more susceptible to RNG) and Ifrit is better suited for DET(DET has a big effect on auto attacks).

Second, yours was Obey vs Sic and...

Garuda.
Does.
More.
DPS.
Than.
Ifrit.

Period.

The only time to use Ifrit is if you have a MNK, and your BRD isn't using Foe Req at all(if the fight is short enough to not use 2 Contagions).

Relic.

/10chars

Surecast + Swiftcast

Try to clip your DoTs between .00~1s to .999~s left on the timer. That means the DoT timer doesn't have a "1" present. When it has a "1," that means 1.00~1s to 1.99~s is left.
Remember, each DoT has...

Ifrit does less DPS than Garuda straight out.

Don't just look at the potency.

I think it just scales differently, because if it did do 20% more than Garuda, AND he had an auto-attack--There would be no reason to use Garuda, ever.

Just as a note, Ifrit does scale off of INT.

However.

-Ifrit does less DPS than Garuda unless on Sic, where he's equal(but uses a stun and AoE)
-Ifrit is melee
-Ifrit uses Skill Speed and DK...

Sigh.

I'm stupid.

And how does FFXIV not follow a "core mechanic?"

EQ had tons of horizontal progression and not much vertical, that's why. You can't mix the 2 to the extent the poster above was stating.

You can't have must-have procs/augments because that...

"Even though the company who makes the game calls us Summoners, we aren't Summoners."

You can't compare FFXIV to past FF games. It's stand-alone.

-Note above about classes/jobs different scaling.

-Also note, different attacks scale differently, especially with DTR(can't confirm if for STR/DEX/VIT). You need to test every attack. It's...
