War soled last 5%!

Just go watch!

https://youtu.be/vWfSRhzGcdY





Ps: I did just got out of the hospital after having a panic attack and I stopped breathing afew time this pass weekend. So sry if you can hear me breathing. It was still hard to breath a little.

Who is he, and how badly must I beg to get him in my static?

Equilibrium and Storm's Path. The real MVPs.

Clemency is better......

Lol this happened to me a few days ago though our WAR soloed from %17.

It was impressive, though it took a good while :x

No it's not, because you have to stop and heal, while warrior can dps and heal themselves up, bloodbath and equ plus innte beast is way more OP.

Why are they breathing so damn hard?

War does have more reliable self healing(storms path(3gcds)/inner beast(7 gcds)/equilibrium(60 sec)/bloodbath(90 sec/Pld can use too)) to keep itself alive but Clemency(2 seconds/2/5 of mp) is still better or at least equal to overall. And tbh I'm just being salty that it's another War video <.<

See it this way: It makes it a veiled "NERF WAR!" thread :3

Clemency can only be cast up to 4 times a minute, iirc, and for no more than an Equilibrium, and at cost to block, dodge, and parry chances during those cast times. Every other Equilibrium can gain 50% more healing, or averaging to 1500 per minute, while a full Bloodbath can pull up to around 3000 potency of damage-based healing, and Inner Beast itself can pull up to an additional 1440 potency (300*4*1.2) per minute, and Storm's Path another 1000 per minute ([60/2.5/3]*[250/2]). That's a total of 4800, albeit augmentable 3 casts per window by Convalescence every 2 minutes (average 5340) against nearly 7000.

Clemency is not better. With the PLD also using Bloodbath, the two are very, very close, but the Warrior self-healing comes with a mitigation component, instead of mitigation loss.

Guys! seriously the tanks are balanced perfectly fine, finer than perfect even they can all do this(lol right)

I hope he got the comments AND the minion as a reward well deserved oO

I always cringe a little at that notion. Perhaps I'm just salty that if my ninja-butt was in the same situation, I'd just get steamrolled no matter how good I played >.>

I was thinking the same thing, tbh. A MNK or DRG CAN'T survive her hits, even if they perform mechanics correctly, but who cares about them, right? They died in under three hits, what losers.

Clutch!!!!

Zojha and loreleidiangelo (don't know how to make multiple quotes, sorry ^^") : Well the guy decided to play tank, not the easiest job on earth AND is abble to solo her, of course a ninj or a dragoon can't do it, but then, why not try tank ? :)

The really sad part of this statement? 8 WAR extreme primal kills are a thing >_>

The problem is that you're assuming the tank role is the most difficult to perform optimally by default. There are quite a few people that would disagree with you. More to the point, I'm not sure even a DRK Or a PLD would be able to achieve this either, and they're also tanks, so what's your point?

Just trying to highlight that the most skilled player in a raid isn't necessarily the last guy standing, is all.

Not at all, tanking myself, i actually find it easier than DPS ^^" (but i'm a weird person, and a crappy DPS ^^")
I just say that people usually don't want to tank because....well...because what ? i don't know, maybe responsabilities ?

"Just trying to highlight that the most skilled player in a raid isn't necessarily the last guy standing, is all."
Well, yes and...no ^^" most of the time ( i'm not saying all the time or everyone of course !) if you die, that means you messed something (AOE avoidance, mecanics, taking back aggro for example) thus, the last guy standing is kind of skilled no ? ^^"

Or the last guy standing has a crap-ton of defense, mitigation, and self-heals to cover up any blunders. Plenty of tanks who "stood in the bad" are the last ones left alive in Weeping City because, well...they're tanks.

Just having them is not everything, you need to learn how to use them efficiently, so many tanks i saw not using a single defensing CD...sometimes they are even more fragile than some dps !

My point isn't really about bad tanks or whatever, my point is that if it were a DPS in this same situation they'd be physically unable to salvage the raid, and no one would notice or care about their particularly exceptional skill.

tl;dr good job to the WAR, but let's not pretend they'd have been capable if this if they were anything BUT a WAR.

Yay more "WAR is the best tank" propaganda. We certainly haven't had enough of that.

This is easy as hell, honestly a warrior could solo this entire fight probably given ... 3 hours..

This isn't so much impressive as much as the boss is just really easy. Honestly think about it as long as you have decent gear and some HP regen/abilities this isn't exactly cookie worthy.

Haha, dw I will make 7 PLD 1 sch Nid video soon:). I did 7 pld seph ex kill 2 months ago, need to make PLD shine a bit more!

This is the reason why I tell every new player to go marauder/warrior for their first character. WARRIORS ARE A BEAST RAWWWR!

Tanks are the last person standing by a "mechanical" need (1 of healer jobs is to keep them alive so the mob/s don't dmg them & DPS to 0hp) so a Tank being alive last happens more often (cept in derp-tank times dieing to 1-shot mechanics) I mean I almost did what that WAR did as PLD on my 1st time run of Weeping city... with only that fight as my info about boss mechanics (granted my run was from 3% & I died at 1 due to it being my 1st time fighting here so lack of skill with mechanic's killed me)

Finding a WAR user skilled enouf to live & win in that senario is just as awsome as finding a PLD or DRK that can to, there Tanks DEF mitigation & "turtling" is in there job discription FF14 just gave them a way to "heal" in burst's... heck for a Tank doing that is "mentally" like fighting off a trainwreck in slow-mo, a "War of Attrition" if u will (pun intended for OP's case)

Gonna be honest Warrior LB3 should just do mega damage since you basically bring up mountain spikes before you can say Stone 3.

why are we still surprised over war's solo'ing something?

im still surprised people dying in weeping city man its sad and pathetic

Wan't there a vid of a WAR soloing her for 15 minutes, about two weeks ago? o.o Fenris something-rather-I-forgot-the-last-name
Everyone was salty/pissy about him wasting time and to just wipe it..... they silenced after 5 mins of the WAR nowhere near being dead and Miss Sparklyhair slowly dying.
He just had to execute the mechanics and rotation flawlessly for 15 mins o_x (I wouldn't have been able to... I'd have slipped up somewhere, after so many repeats... xD; ).

Honestly, it re-kindled my want to re-learn MRD/WAR (had an alt WAR on Balmung, but... haven't played him in almost a year o_o).
I wonder if WAR solos on this fight will become more common (or, lessen when the mechanics become moreso older news than it already is, for some). o_o Seems to be three solo WARs, thus far, on this boss...

pretty much this. And idk why ppl are still surprised war's can solo bosses under 20%? It's been this way since ARR where you will hear stories from war's solo tanking chimera in cutter's cry. I perosnally have been in this situation many times,

Plus this boss doesn't auto attack a lot since she is always casting something. Impressive, but I think its pretty telling that a WAR is more like a DRK than and actual DRK. Anyone got a vid of a DRK soloing that last 5% of the final boss in weeping?

Poor DRK.....

It amazes me how people think this is a good thing, this happening means how good designed it was.

The only thing I hate about this is I've seen a few WAR's since these "WAR soloed last x%" videos went up suddenly drag the boss to a wall and try to cleave kill as many people as possible so they can get an "epic solo kill" too*. It's like "yes, we see that you're an almighty WAR, now stop being an a55 and do you're damn job!".

*or at least that's what I think their doing, they might really have just messed up. But that fact that I've never seen a PLD or DRK do it, and it's always in the last bit of the fight, leaves me questioning if it was a mistake or not

Edit: changed my wording a little, since it didn't feel I was getting the right massage across before.
