    dude, legit your mention of knowing WHAT a mechanic is doing and WHY it's being solved this way is one of the things i try to explain to people all the time. i've seen so many videos of people using 3rd party tools to show them where to go, but they still fail and mess things up because they never learned why they need to go to specific places.

    A few random things I'd like to add when it comes to positioning:
    - position slightly offset to everyone else makes it much easier to immediately tell when you've gotten marked rather than having to wiggle and jump.
    - pre-positioning yourself to the most likely location the next mechanic will take you (within reason). This is especially important if your position is something other people will need to react to fairly quickly.
    - when a (spread) mechanic is up next, do not stand far out of position unless you have a good reason to. Otherwise people who are used to adjusting around others' mistakes will now expend brain power to figure out if they need to adjust around you or not.

    i 1000% agree with repetition and learning to control the camera. there's so many mechanics that become waay easier just by moving your perspective to a different point.

    Something that gets said a lot in the community is "Anyone can clear any fight in FFXIV" and that is fundamentally true. However I feel many take that as "If you can't clear this in a certain timeframe, you're bad, you should hate yourself, and you shouldn't play the game", which is fundamentally untrue.
    This is why I personally say "Anyone can clear any fight in FFXIV, as long as you have the willpower to do it." Anyone can, but that does not mean a clear is pre-ordained upon you. You have to do work to get it, and the reason it looks so easy for others is because they've done a lot of that work already. And you've got to catch up. So it may take more time than other people, it may have to be small hours spread out over months of agonising waiting to get back into the fight, and it may feel like you'll never see the end. But you will, as long as you want it. Put in the work to win, and the journey of that victory will be with you forever. My first journeys certainly haven't left me yet, I hope all of you get some that you'll cherish too.

  • @Arthrexx
    @Arthrexx Місяць тому +6

    A good tip that makes me able to pick up fights at bare minimum twice as fast as others; Chill. Relax. Don't focus on your rotation. Hell, don't even do damage and fully concentrate on the mechanics. Most bosses don't have DPS checks outside of the enrage. If they do, like adds, only do it then. Having to focus on mechanics AND rotation at the same time divides your attention and makes it easier to misplay or forget things. Focus on one thing at a time which should be mechanics because if you don't play them right, you won't even get further. What use is 500k DPS (exaggeration) if you die after thirty seconds in the fight?

    • @Yokai_Yuri
      @Yokai_Yuri Місяць тому +1

      This! This is something that the community goes against because the elitist wanna be like to put "DPS IS PRIORITY OVER ALL" and insist that good dps equals clearing the fight and resolving mechanics. Unfortunately these people are the most "influential ones" specially when a sprout or a somewhat new player tries to hop into difficult content like ex, savage, or ult.
      How many times have you seen PF with "parsing" and this isn't even like a savage thing only, they do it on extremes. I've always said the same: Prioritize mechanics over DPS, but sometimes I feel that falls on deaf ears, specially if you are in a static where most people try to be sweats.

      my friend who does ultimates got yelled at for barely attacking when we were doing savage prog. I did ask him why later and he said this exact reason- luckily I already focused more on mechanics anyway but it's so funny how people do not know this and choose good dmg over understanding mechs

  • @ludafactor
    @ludafactor 29 днів тому +2

    Back when we were still in ARR before an expansion. I’ve tackled the hardest fight of the game back then which was Second Coil Savage “back when the devs decided to make a harder version of a tier when it was considered a challenge already” with a group of friends, it took hours on end to beat the Avatar. Morale was low during all of it and people were exhausted. But I ended up dozing off and fallen asleep mid pull and slept for over 4 hours, and during that my group waited for me and checked up on me to see if I was okay. When I finally woke up, I wanted to go back in even if my group was concerned at the time. We one shotted. This is what made me prioritize Step 0 throughout my time of playing this game. Taking care of yourself is a major factor if not the most major and you stated it perfectly here.

    I'm never going to touch an Ultimate, maybe not even a Savage but I stepped up to doing EX content and enjoyed it, but unfortunately there are just so many people who play this game that technically are "that player", but they make me not want to touch the game at all because they make it hard for regular people who don't have time or want to commit that hard.

    Fantastic vid, definitely gonna be sharing this to my friends who struggle a lot with consistency and stuff. Also one neat tip I wanna add, Audio Queues. My favorite example of this is in Ucob with Nael. Rise of the White Raven lines up a lot with mechanics that happen in that phase, so you can use it as a way of remembering mechanics and when they come out. 3D Headphones can help a lot as well if you're listening for where certain things are coming from as well.

    The healer "rotation", I find, comes down to really being able to stay aware of your healing cooldowns. It's important to keep track of the timing so you can optimize where you place your heals and mitigations. DPS, I think to their advantage, have rotations where they're led into hitting abilities at the right moments if they're keeping on top of their rotation. For healers it's much less strict which is almost more of a challenge because you have to stay aware of all your cooldowns all the time. I'm sure my opinion is a bit skewed as a SCH main ('cause our kit locks other parts of our kit out), but good recovery in particular for healing requires you to learn how to analyze "if I use this here, will it be up again when I need it?"
