Do you shame people for their choice of materia melds?

[HyoMinPark]

Not everyone who plays FFXIV considers Savage/Ex Trials as endgame content. Even FFXIV Dev's know that, that's why they made Relic Weapons/Eureka/Hunt system.

Savage and Ex Trail content to me, is like the Majhong content in FFXIV. It's there, it's optional, you don't have to play it lol.

Plus all the Tryhard Emo's in this game are in the Raiding scene lol. Can you imagine ppl saying they're hardcore because they've beaten an AI opponent? lol. Maybe if you did it on a PS4 i might give you a clap lol.

The OP of this thread should read all the replies and see it for himself. Raiders are the cancer of this game, they think they can dictate what melds i should put on my gear and if i call them out for it suddenly they're all foaming in the mouth and coming out of the Woodwork like this Kasumi guy xD.

Elitist Raider: Direct Hit is the best Meld for Tanks, Tenacity is a waste of a meld, I have more respect for you if you did not meld anything at all.

Casual Player: But i don't even raid, i just do Expert Roulletes with 3 random people

Elitist Raider: It doesnt matter, Tenacity is Trash, If you meld Tenacity your going to get shamed and called a noob, GL getting a static with those melds, the parser only reads Damage Dealt, nobody cares about Damage Mitigated!


Seriously, SE needs to change Direct Hit so it has no effect if your job is a Tank lol. That should help all the confused tanks who think they're a 3rd DPS.

Idk which to quote so I'll just quote this one.

Who peed in your cereal this morning? I don't know what you have against raiders, but I think the only toxic/elitist individual in this conversation right now isn't them.

I'd say if raiders/theorycrafters thought Tenacity was a worthwhile stat compared to their other options, they'd have BiS sets with it melded. That said, whatever benefit it gives is outweighed by the benefit of the other substats. Hence why it goes largely ignored when it comes to optimization. No one cares if you want to meld it for dungeons, but people that want to optimize will not meld suboptimal stats. That defeats the purpose of optimization. And I really don't understand what's it to you what other people meld.

It's also quite funny how you go on about how "ugly" or "worthless" the "dye-able glamours" from Savage are when you've stated in the past you want them available from normal mode.
