Just had a pretty entertaining Pharos run.

Huh? I can't remember the last time I had to give a tank a few seconds to gain enmity.

Adorable, playing dumb doesn't make any points.

So you never replied to me but you did reply to someone else and YOU stated that you only let your garuda auto attack with wind burn, and never use any of it's 3 other skills. Why are you not using contaigen? Do you not know how to use shortwave so that it gets the kill shot and doesn't mess anything up? do you not use aerial slash? that's a huge dps loss alone. Every time you mention rouse/spur the only thing you mention is enkindle. You really need to learn the ability of ifrit and Garuda as well as you know Titan. If you are so good why don't you have wave book yet? or the primal ex book? allagan? They all work with a arc and are SUPER EASY to get for any half decent summoner. hell wave book goes free lot all the time on my server, and considering the amount of levi farm groups I generally pick up a wave weapon every time I go out.

No that wasn't me that said I only kept Garuda on Obey, that was that Scott guy or whatever. Even when I do, because you should have Garuda set to Obey, I'm still using all of her abilities when I have the chance. The knockback move is inconvenient to use most of the time because she's supposed to be ranged and has to rush up to an enemy to use it, then move back so she's out of attack distance.

And one person does not a full party make, regardless of how well I can use my class, it doesn't mean I'm going to be able to carry people through Titan Extreme that can't dodge Weight of the Land or Landslides. I'm locked out of other content because none of the good parties are doing Primals anymore since they're outdated.

So if you haven't even touched the classes yet why should anything you say mean jack squat?


"Oh noes! The Summoner has a tank pet out! He clearly cannot use anything else effectively now! If only I actually played the class to end-game and knew what I was talking about!"
>Explains everything that you've been saying, try harder.

Well few people have actually played their class to current "end-game" (as of 2.2).

I cleared all of the 2.1 content with my BLM and most of it also on my Bard.

I'm currently on T8 with my static as BLM and have carried people for all of the Ex primals.

It seems you have no real experience of a lot of older "end-game" content, or the newer content.


So you really should get off your high horse when your going to start lecturing people about "end-game" content that you have not done on any class.


Having multiple classes at level 50 means nothing on it's own. I have 2 of the dow/dom classes at 50 on my main, I know BLM pretty well, but I'm not what I would consider a "good Bard", despite being ilvl91 or so. Though I would say I know my main class pretty well and have a reasonable basic understand of the other classes mechanics.

No, seriously, I really don't remember the last time I had to hold back to give a tank time. Heck, my LX runs usually involve my buffing right off the bat and still not pulling aggro. The only time I pull aggro is if I straight up attack before the tank ever touches the enemy.

[Megido]

haha, this guy

There are weird people, noobs, and then there are weird noobs. Huntington you are the super rare one-person-a-forum weird noob, made HQ by using low grade materials.

And that's exactly what I'm talking about, you're giving the tank a few seconds to land a hit first so you don't pull aggro. I can't believe I'm actually having to spell it out because that is the exact widespread "give tank a few seconds to gain enmity" signal that anyone should be able to realize. At it's core you're giving him a few seconds before you make a move for him to hit first, so you don't pull.

No, because I'm not claiming to be some hardcore all day every day Raid content player. I've attempted Garuda Extreme dozens of times after I studied up on and played the fight enough, I never finished it before 2.2 because no one else I ever came across knew what they were doing. Because those exact people already had their pre-formed groups that they set to be their statics for other content. I was with the other people who didn't have enough time to play through the content, or were unable to because of their own skill. Yet I still know how to play my role through each of the fights. I don't have actual experience with Ifrit Extreme yet, and I know what to do for Titan but I have not cleared it because of what I already said.

You are right that I don't have tons of experience with pre-end game content, but that's all it is. A lack of actual experience, but I still know what to do when I actually get to it. The difference with you is you're thinking you're credible enough to diagnose who doesn't know how to use their class because you've dabbled in one Magic and one War class, and barely anything else. Crafting doesn't qualify you to be able to say "Hey White Mage, do you know what Shroud of Saints is so you don't AoE heal right before a fight? Hey PLD, have you tried emptying your MP with Flash at the start then rotating your Rage of Halone combo between each enemy?"

Because you are literally lacking in experience with most of these classes, which means anything you say to other people about them has little to no merit. I don't claim to tell people what they should be doing on a class unless I've had enough firsthand experience with it myself. Then here you are preaching to someone about Summoner when you have a drop in the bucket of time actually using Arcanist and not having even gotten the Job yet.

It seems you have no real experience of a lot of older "end-game" content, or the newer content.

When was I lecturing anyone on end-game content? Do you have a quote that shows me telling someone how to play in T6 and beyond? Because all I've told you because you're too ignorant to actually recognize it is that you don't have any classes leveled worth a ****, don't preach to me to start off on how to play something if you've only used BLM and BRD. My god the irony that you're going to turn around and tell me what you've been doing for months is absurd in of itself. Don't tell me how to play SMN if you haven't used the class, and I won't tell you how to use BLM when it's only at level 32 for me right now. Capiche?

I'll put that in my signature, it's been blank for awhile now, didn't know what should be put there.
