Using Limit Break (lb) on pulls

[Thunda_Cat_SMASH]

Honestly if the melee doesn't use it on the first boss, then they don't get to get pissy over it being used on a trash pack... I used aoe lb in a pull with multiple enemies and the melee told me to not do it again, I just said I would and moved on. Ain't my fault he didn't lb the boss.

This right here. You don't use it when your chance comes up as a melee, I will use it as soon as I get the chance to as a ranged/caster. If you wanna whine, talk to my shiny rifle, cause I don't wanna hear it.

My only thing as a melee dps is that we really only have the option for bosses. I see some people talking like the single target LB has many options outside of that. Maybe LB one of those two Remedy Bombs over the boss.

But I tend to use it at least once before. Normally at 2nd boss at the start of the encounter. Usually have just before or a full LB one by the time we reach a fourth/final boss.

There are a few HP sponges in dungeons between bosses that can soak a melee LB. Malboros, iron giants, treants -- big mobs, basically. It's really a matter of timing. Depending on your PT's DPS output, the LB may not charge until a boss fight anyway.

See in those situations there are also adds as well so I would see that as a Caster LB situation. /shrug

Any time there are two or more mobs that can be hit by a limit break, and assuming none of them are so critically weak that the lb damage is wasted, then a BRD/MCH limit or a caster LB will do more total damage than a melee using a single-target LB on a single enemy. If you're LB'ing trash, there is no reason not to use an AoE limit unless you tank is literally single-pulling stuff like a goof.

Though if you're burning the meter because you have no caster/range in party, or said player isn't bothering, then please carry on, my good man. If it will be back for last boss then by all means burn them quicker.
