A light party clears Twintania (and macro icon question)

[AdamFyi]

To be fair, High Allagan equipment has mostly the same primary stats as the i110 soldiery gear (Which you can upgrade through hunts), but just different secondary stats (Well, except the weapons ofc but they don't make TOO much of a difference). I'm really impressed that they managed to 4-man Twintania. Good job!

Biggest difference is the people with HA, esp T8/T9 gear, are normally (I'd say 80-90% of the time) a lot better than people with i100+ with none.

Who's to say that normal people can't be good too? I'm sure with enough patience and practice, everyone can down t5! Remember that those people who can easily down t5 are the very same people who puts in the effort and practice.

On the video, sure they have HA gear and are more skilled but remember that there is also a possibility that it took them multiple runs to 4-man this judging by the fact that they reached the enrage timer.

Obviously it took a bit of practice; different strat an all. But in general, people who don't raid aren't at the skill-level to do this. Most people think ilv = skill, when it doesn't. I've seen countless people in full sol-gear (mix of 100 and 110) that are beyond terribad...and they outnumber the good people with the same gear (full sol, no HA) by a huge margin.

They make an enormous difference...

I'm gonna cite an example here. for my BLM I used a macro with the level 3 spells (for fun) and set Tri-disaster as the icon (because it fits) However I do not have tri disaster itself in the macro. It stays dark regardless.

Just did the same thing and it's lit up. I'm starting to think this might be a setting somewhere. Maybe it's to do with the hotbar it's on. Shared, non shared? I'll play about...

I only saw one or two people holding HA weapons. The rest doesn't seem to be (the glow on the weappn gives it away). Also, there are only 2 DPS, compared to the usual 4, so I guess that makes them at a slight disadvantage?
