TSDS Guides need YOU!* (*well, your ideas) :)

I'll tell you why the game is "Lacking" in the guide department. Mainly because no-one needs them for any of the content in the game. there are a choice few fights where you may need to know one mechanic and that known strategies are pointless once the next update hits.

Unless your trying to go into a fight undergeared you skip most mechanics by nature of the inflated strength of your party making guides a wasted effort if not for bleeding edge content. Welcome to MMO 2.0, where your "Strategy guide" for 90% of content is "Don't get hit by the AOE, and hit stuff"

Praetorium all roles -> ultima weapon around 8mins (....plume from the centre, followed by plume from the edges...).

I'm not sure who started to call titan's aoe to be "plume" those things need to end.. Lol..

I edited and gave some tips on lowbies dungeons in case you're interested which are rarely and never mentioned anywhere..

Ah yeah I did wonder if you were referring to that. I didn't know what they're actually called thus the 'things' part at the end of my description for the move. I know Mizzteq calls them plumes (as it's her guides who I've watched for most of the content). I guess the specific name of the move is less important when there isn't a cast bar to be able to watch but good spot

This 1000 character post limit is a bit annoying

Yeah well a lot of mechanics boil down to 'don't stand in stuff' but the encounters I've made guides for were a right pain to do the first time around with current guides either being so out of date or just not existing in the first place.

I complete each dungeon/encounter a number of times to get a proper understanding of it and then record it around 2 times per party role in order to make the guide. A lot of wipes still happen in those fights because the information just isn't out there. There are some good guides out there but then there are also some fights where the only guide is a 20+min long video of someone talking a bunch of waffle.
