Making gil is almost impossible on most servers

Again. Questionable value.

You don't need an overmelded i70 ring gear to play your class in end-game dungeons that drop i90 gear.

You want to have the BiS, because that's a personal goal of yours to have. But it's not 100% necessary.

And end-game raiding? I've been part of progression guilds in WoW. It's all the same. If you honestly believe you need to have as much HP as possible to clear a dungeon and are going to fret over a minor stat boost, you are too serious. FFXIV encounter design is focused on learning a boss pattern and having a full party. With or without overmelded VIT gear you will end up dying the same until everyone learns the boss strategy.

You act like this is such serious business, but it's a videogame. You're supposed to win. The game is designed to allow you to win. Get over yourself.

So... then people do buy materia?

Nope not at all. Not like I didn't just sell a few pieces of crafting materia from a main story quest for like 70k.

Ladies and gentlemen, it is very apparent from these words that this person does not understand how Twintania encounter works, nor have read up on how it works. You were part of progression guilds in WoW. Good for you. Now try raiding in XIV and come back after you experienced Twintania.

That or all he's done is run it as PLD and decided he had no reason to care about the HP of anyone who wasn't him. He doesn't have the "cleared turn 5" achievement, though, so it could go either way.

I raid as PLD, and I understand how Fireball/Waxen Flesh works because it directly affects me on how likely a Conflagration blows up and thus increasing the chance I get killed. Good tanks will try to understand all mechanics of a fight, even if they aren't responsible for it.
