Limit Break problem

[SannaR]

Part of the problem is a lot of players don't know it exists or they think everyone has their own. This thought pops in even before they unlock PVP. If it has then they assume that it's separate because that's how it works in PVp. Or they feel as though they'd use it wrong or waste it. It's how when you do run into the few times you have to use a tank LB you end up dead cause the tank doesn't have it set to their hotbars.

I mostly play magic DPS in roulettes. I'm not popping the LB if there's a melee DPS in the party. And I won't pop it on a boss as my LB is a DPS loss. I will pop on a W2W trash pull, if there are no melee DPS in the party.

Don't do that, Casters get first dibs on LB in dungeons regardless of team comp since their's does more damage than Ranged and is easier to aim at a pack of mobs, followed by Ranged, then Melee should only use it on the final boss
and LBs generally aren't DPS losses unless you do them in the middle of a burst phase (or if you're single target SMN/SAM and the animation lock completely fucks up your rotation and filler GCDs or whatever)

additionally, if you have any LB charged up and you know the next boss will reset it (mostly alliance raids) then as a Caster or Ranged you have no real excuse for not trying to pull with it

p.s Caster/Ranged LB1 does more damage than Melee LB3 at 6 targets

If two DPS...I use LB on a boss as soon as it gets there. It'll fill again before we get to final boss so if LB2 gets filled I'll use it. If not gonna make it I'll just LB1 to finish it.

If even one ranged DPS though...should be saved for trash mobs. Way more collective damage.

*keeps burning lv1 LB as brd*
Like this?

Unironically yes that's one of the better uses for it in a large pull.

I had a healer lb3 in P8N because they didn't want to res the two dead DPS. Six thousand three hundred and twenty five hours and that's the lowest amount of dead players it's been used on.

melee lb3s in game description: single target attack

melee lb3s actual effect when I use it : Make your party members forget how to do some random mechanic they did perfectly ever other run and wipe the raid *monk only additional effect :chance of getting yelled at for delaying brotherhood raid buff

[Renalt]

*burns lb3 as a rdm during a visual heavy mechanic when the boss is at 45%*
How about this?

If Melee won't...sure. May as well use that LB that early and you could possibly get 1 or 2 bars of LB to finish.

*burns lb3 as a rdm during a visual heavy mechanic when the boss is at 45%*
How about this?

There is a far less eye murdering version in the Bozja content and there is absolute zero goddamn excuse to not use that when they have taken so many other animations and toned those down.

[MistyMew]

*waits until the boss is less than 0.5%*
*burns LB*
*boss dies*
Got it~!

They are biting

As a Tank, if a Melee DPS does not use LB on 2nd boss the moment it is charged and ready or when the bosses health is at 80%, I am gonna pop it. I am not going to make it collect dust while you can use LB and let it recharge before we get to the final boss.

If a Ranged DPS doesn't use their LB on W2W pulls then Imma pop it because clearly they aren't going to use it on a big group.

Also if LB2 is ready and the DPS does not use it immediately, at 10% HP Imma pop LB. DPS players need to learn it is not meant for your grand anime finishers where you pop it when the boss is at 5%-1% HP.
