Moogle Battle Video

[Richard_BG]

hope it wont be 1 tank 5 LNC and 2 healer setup at 1.20 or it ll be freaking sad

its gonna be MRD MRD MRD MRD THM CNJ CNJ. Calling it now.

also this:

so instead of Hellfire at the end of the fight we now have Mooglefire in the middle of the fight. sad sad sad reuse of fight mechanics to scrape by.

That little moogle Gladiator is the cutest thing I've ever seen....EVER!

i could.not.care.less. about the music or the level of "cute" this fight brings- those two things are 100% irrelevant to me.

the only thing i care about are the fight mechanics and its fun factor (which to me has nothing to do with cute or music)

im wondering how the lack of crowd control will work out. i also wonder how susceptible (if at all) the moogles are to magic attacks, or are mages only going to be used for healing with the occasional Prot/SS .

Crowd control in a major boss fight? Someone didn't play FFXI.

This isn't FFXI.

No shit. Now find me an NM you can sleep in FFXIV.

i did play FFXI for four years.
this isnt FFXI.
i havent played a battle in FFXIV that consisted of several mini bosses with 1 main boss.
since i have played other MMOs i am under the impression that crowd control should be a factor.
why would sleep be your only means for CC? what about gravity, slow, magic stuns, bind... pretty much everything else? why cant future mini bosses/bosses have a small susceptability to some CC in FFXIV?
CC is a very enjoyable mechanic to me and if the bosses are of a certain difficulty then it CC wouldnt cheapen a fight, only add to the amount of strategies.

This isn't FFXI is it ?, and considering we no longer have any CC besides sleep .. I think his concerns are valid.

Looks fun, hopefully will add some longevity, but i doubt it.

I also think it will be mrd x 6, conj/thm x 2

some people should re-read the new actions i think...mrd don't have anymore storm's path spam, and thm lost sacrifice, meaning it can only heal with cnj's cure (and the gimp of the case)
