Closed Captions are up!
If any of the information mentioned for some reason changes by next expansion i'll make an updated video on it (though I doubt it).
Hey, just wanna notify, the 6:21 CC said that the fights are 50 minutes to 90 minutes long. I think you meant 15 to 19 minutes long.
Every expansion I say “this is when I’m going to try savage”, and every expansion I say “ok next time” lol 🤦🏻
If this isn't me 100%...
Now is the time to do it with Echo :D
No time like the present! We've nearly 5 months to go between now and EW. Plenty of time to clear the current savage tier 😀
More than the difficulty it's the time committment/reward ratio.
I believe in you.
Im a triple legend and savage vet just here to say thank you momo, your healer guide way back when helped me a lot!
This is an incredibly informative video. I always have the problem with finding a static who would want to take on someone who has literally no experience with the more advanced raids and has limited time. I am hoping to be able to do so either soon in the next month or once Endwalker comes out.
As a returning player that is lacking some of the resources that have developed since my absence from the game, I really appreciate this.
Love your vids and streams Momo. Helped me get into endgame especially healing in general. Hope to see more content from you. Keep it up!
I'm a very casual player I only beat 3/4 of the second raid tier of this expansion and that was mostly because there were ppl there who already did it, and also because the raid tier lasted ages. Regardless I'm planning on raiding next expansion and this video definitely gave me a morale boost in that regard. I remember being an mmo newbie 1.5ish years ago and watching your how to dungeon scholar video and it was a massive help. Ever since then I've always looked to you for guides and such. Keep up the great work
momo doing guides again ? blessed
Thank you for making guides nobody else does. You helped me a lot on my way already and I am sure this will help a lot of new people aswell. :)
There's literally 100s of raid guides
@@icanspelle6050 brother i wrote this 1 year ago where there weren't. are you ok?
@Alethya brother this games has been out for years there's infinite guides, are you okay?
Man looking at this guide reminds me the time I was searching some advices and found your melee uptime optimization video. I tried the most of it with the release of Tsukuyomi EX and playing ninja... Good to see some others advices to help people jump into the "toxic" content LUL.
Keep doing it as always Sir, and huge thanks for that.
Thank you for this video! My group might finish E12S tonight, its rough fight but we almost got itt
Its a long fight but it's got some fun mechanics! Good luck.
Really appreciate this video I’ve always had a bad taste about statics because I come from other mmos and I usually raid with my guild/FC like I’ve played 14 since HW but I still don’t like the idea but watching this made me think I should give it a try because I am so tired of party finder lol and my FC just don’t have the confidence to even try raising no matter what I say
Great Video. Very informative and easy to digest. Always appreciate your content.
Thank you!
that's my homie in the PF at 7:40ish (demetri sawesome). we actually just cleared UCOB a few days ago after uh, protracted roster issues.
excellent vid momo!
You love to see it ❤️
Thank you for explaining some of this, FC im in asked if I wanted to raid and me being a WoW refugee I did Heroic content there. So no big deal... Or so i thought. Was asked to roll ninja and I was being sent savage strats and that was it. So... this helps a bit
I'll come back to this video again once I'm ready to fully raid I was rushing it but stepped back and now doing eureka instead.
Eureka is a lot of fun enjoy your time doing it and i'll see you in the raid scene :D
3.1 - Flexible roles is my biggest weakness. I envy seeing people being able to switch around and play it to a decent standard. One tricking has just crippled my ability to join different groups in the long run ;_;
Dee pls you can do it >:( you just gotta believe in yourself
Guides are back!!!
a momo guide? my day is blessed
about potting -> in some fight its worth to pot even during prog since it can make your group skip some mechanics, changing the pacing of the fight to be easier + you have to learn less mechanics. an example is protean 2 in TEA p1, you never have to learn that mechanic if you just optimize from the start
I am torn about this. In one hand it gives good ways to self improve but on the other if people see all this and they think they all these are a MUST. In FFXIV you need none of these just a good understanding of the job and the minimal gear ilvl. I learned SoS ex blind at lvl 80 in a pug and had a blast, it took a few days but I got it. My best advice is find a group with the same mindset. Not every group is the same and I think playing with people with the same mind set helps maximize fun and clear goals. But that is just my opinion. I just don't want people scared off thinking every raider does all this and thus expects everyone to do the same. It does help but not expected in all groups.
Good watch! With DSW coming in 6.1 I've been thinking what they might bring to the table (pun intended) in terms of mechanics. I know they've dipped their toes a bit in "elevation" mechanics in Alexander, E4S and Heroes' Gauntlet so would like to see an ultimate take on that
Something new would always be really cool to see so here's hoping.
Love the vid !
how do you access stone sky sea? I cant find it on the duty finder
Big fan of this youtuber
Yo, how do you have that damage meter on screen at 11:35? Is this like, prerecorded playback with active log data added in on top? I'm a wow refugee, very new to the game, I played a GLD back when ARR first released up to like level 25 before I gave up. I was an active wow player at the time and the GCD as well as slow start to all classes in general and (at the time) the main tank class in particular led me to give it up. I'm very much enjoying myself now, just finished the requirements to upgrade my THM to a BLM and I know I'm in basically the tutorial section still. Thanks for the video, while the info for new mmo players/raiders was stuff I already knew, the ffxiv specific stuff and the info for wow transplants was incredibly helpful.
Thanks for the plug! Blue Mage is real! :D
You can raid on it so :D
Thanks Momo!
A momo video? I'm so confident this is gonna be quality, I'm gonna like the video before I watch it.
Edit after watching: yup this is a bomb video.
One of the big choices between "Do I want to join a static, or do I want to pug this tier?" is your own time investment into the raid, and your goals for clearing.
The upside of a static is consistency in positioning, strategy, and progression. The downside of a static is that it can be significantly harder to replace an underperforming team member if your static leader isn't principled, and your rate of progression is directly tied to the amount of days you raid. Additionally, you are usually recruited for a specific role or even a specific Job, so you often don't have many options for changing gameplay up.
The upside of pugging is that your progression is only limited by the weekly reset, and you're unrestricted by the role you want to play. The downside of pugging is that joining new groups each time you go into a raid means adapting to their often unorthodox strategies, taking a necessary step back in progression just to get into the instance, inconsistency in other players, and personality clashes.
All that being said, pugging a tier is definitely viable, and can also be a good substitute after a static raid week is over. If you get into the tier on day one and do well, you can often get into the rapid progression groups that end up getting to the penultimate and final fights a few weeks before most statics even get there. I've passed several statics my friends were in just by pugging more frequently than they raid during a week.
I love this game so much
I wish I knew more people who played
Df and easy don’t always go together well. Every once in awhile you que into a normal mode expecting a quick clear and you wipe so much you second guess if you accidentally qued for savage lol.
Is it the same thing for a tank? Do I gotta beat a dummy to see if I'm ready?
Great video
very good video NODDERS
Was there an update or a change to the overall stats of gear? Compared to the for example 600 Vitality, I have like 100 at much or less. That always bugged me but haven't got an answer lol
do you have to finish story before raiding ?
Nice music choice :)
I just wanted to quickly address how different groups may deal with fflogs. Although you say casual and midcore statics focus more or too much on whether you are getting good logs, I have personally been turned down from multiple casual statics. For instance when I returned to the game after a break. I just wanted to enjoy some light hearted raiding and got turned down because my logs were too good and the group didn't think they could meet my expectations. So it's definitely not one sided.
I want to do this, but it’s hard to find somebody to do it. My FC not into savage runs though.
Thousand % agree that savage raids are accessible to all and any players can clear it, so long as they put the time, effort and practice to it. There’s no true “gatekeepers” in this game, except for yourselves
i am a new player trying to find a static so i have no experience in raiding at all. i've been browsing/posting on reddit, discord, and party finder but nobody wants a brand new player with literally zero experience. since i can't actually practice the raids without a group to show groups i am willing to put in the work, i'm not sure what i should be doing to try and get a group
Learning parties in PF, you'll learn the fights and more likely than not someone will be uploading the logs of the clears. If there are none up you can create your own and with enough patience they're bound to fill, especially with the influx of players that have come over with the new WoW train.
Statics are generally the better way to raid but you don't necessarily need one. You can easily kill the first 2 fights of a raid tier in party finder if you put in about the same effort as you would when playing in a static
Very helpful! Tyvm
I'm glad it was able to help you :D
@@FFXIVMomo you should do more vids. Your content is great.
@@yazan80 I'm planning on it
@@FFXIVMomo looking forward to it
Based video. Very useful for all the new players 👏
I play on ps5 do you have any tip on how to check damage for console players?
You have to pray people upload logs for you, otherwise stone sky sea
what parser is being used?
mopi mopi
Kinda funny i found a group i got into by hoping into different PFs.
i play on console, and it seems like that would make harder content more difficult without access to act and some of these tools. is there a population of high end console players out there? or is that very rare?
Some of the best players i've played with played on Console.
How do you find static at 7-9pm est only? Sadge
Reddit is probably best for specific timezone things, just include your set hours in the title of the post you make.
@@neru1835 yeah it have been a year. i learn that most people play 9-12 pm EST sadly.
Tbh having a static for savage is not necessary, i pugged the tier in like 9 days. Ultimate however is a different story....
"please be ponctual, respect your peers time" ... a lot of statics lack of that. It's so important, because some members will wait eagerly for raid days, and will be frustrated if other members are late repeatedly, cutting down the time they get to play in a static environment. It sounds so simple, but it can become an issue really fast from my own experience
Can I use your video in a discord channel?
Sure
did he say 15-19 minutes long...? Or 50-90 minutes?
15-19 minutes.
I tired, did party finder to get xp, someone asked if I wanted to be in a static. Said yes, but told them I wasn't very good and had zero experience. E9S was fine, but I was struggling on E10S with the shadows/meteors and this dude got so Fing nasty with me, I stopped playing for 7 months. Tho I do recommend everyone try, it's ok if you try and not like it. Hope you all have a better experience then me.
That fight is legit the worst fight of the tier, seriously fuck orbs, and thank fuck my static is full of sweethearts who just laugh when their tank just sacs herself. I hope you give raiding another try! It's great fun when you manage to find a good group.
I’m sorry man, that shouldn’t happen 🙁
I am writing this comment to boost the video! Hi good video by the way
Thanks :D
This is too hard momo, can you make a gardening guide?
best I can give you is a fisher guide
Looking at other data center pf is like gibberish for me haha. I like how Elemental pf is mostly listed as "da usual strat, marco and waymark provided" but it must be even more gibberish to new raiders XD ("The usual strat, what is that!?")
some datacenters apparently don't even use macros for positions?? found that out recently and I was so confused how people even do farm parties
@@kiiturii they spend 2 minutes before a pull with waymarkers
@@daydreamer9954 sounds... annoying, here we load in, start timer, put waymarks, post macro and if people haven't already taken their position they will and boom we've pulled within 20 seconds (at least in a perfect world, usually it takes maybe like 40 seconds)
Help I’m a “veteran” player who’s never dipped their toe into harder content and I want to so bad I just need to find fun people to do it with. They can be as inexperienced as I am I don’t even mind I just wanna have fun and do this.

Yeah but how do i get into ultimate raiding? All i see in Europe PF's is LPDU have AM, i've no fucking idea what either of that means and there are no ultimate practice parties it's all closed cliques with duty completed pfs...
How do i get that dps meter?
The overlay? It's the Mopi Mopi overlay and Kagerou overlay that are showcased in the stream.
What even is a static
A far away dream. Let me finish up Heavenwards first.
momo whens the video that shows me how to look good as a male healer
WHY IS THE MOUSE OFF SET IN GAME
I DONT KNOW
The emphasis on using ACT/FFLOGS on all the "how to" prep for raiding made it seem like console players cannot be in the same level...
Not necessarily. I'm in a group progging TEA and we've at least 2 folks playing on console. Worst case, console players can ask folks on PC to upload to FFLogs and/or XIV Analysis and they'll be happy to do so
@@Kazgrel yes I know now it's not mandatory to use ACT but it's basically expected that if you don't or can't, someone else will to use it for console user, so expect to always be recorded... It's just so offputting to see a "how to" guide when I'm trying to improve on my own before seeking a static, that the assumption is without PC use or user ready at my needs I'm at a disadvantage.
You don't need to use ACT to do well. Its very useful but its still just a tool. Stone, Sky, Sea and looking at your position in aggro priority can give you a rough estimate of how you're doing.
I do, however, recommend using fflogs and xivanalysis even if you don't use ACT. You can learn a lot by looking at the logs of top parsers for your job and plugging it into xivanalysis.
One of the best Ranged DPS I ran with played on PS4 and outplayed most players.
This is an organic comment from a real human being.
do i know you? xanther smh xD
Hawwwlucha
Y'know.... I assumed it went from extreme to savage for the longest time. Then again, I'm still a sprout and a fellow sprout/fc member got recruited to an (almost) all sprout static for the alexander savages.
Also I may have very low luck with this since I don't want to use those 3rd party performance trackers. 😰
I love how the game is made to not use DPS meters, then this guide comes out saying you're going to be judged for not meeting the standards set by a third party DPS meter 😑
Each static since their own criteria. Some don't care about parses, some do. Whoever told you people didn't care about numbers lied.
@@FFXIVMomo I think you misunderstood me. Or maybe I misunderstood you. It was definitely me. I was implying no one should care about them to begin with, but I missed where you said each group cares about different things... I think the fun part should be all that matters, but that's my opinion. So that's on me
First.
just realized your avatar is crash bandicoot thought it was hooded figure this whole time
Not anymore :D
How to get into Raiding. Step 1..be an established raider with impressive logs.
Is there a kind WHM or otherwise knowledeable person that could give it to me straight, what gear do I need to put on my WHM to lets say, show up on E1S and not look like a wannabe idiot? All those BiS guides ignore that fact that gear comes from savage and I have found very little resources about 'nearly' BiS until you get BiS. :-)
I have Augmented Exarchic and 2 Augmented Cryptlurker pieces (chest/legs), with Aug Exarchic weapon. I'm not sure I fancy doing weapon, but I probably will, the rest of the gear is big black hole, difficult to compute for a newb.
Meld Crit until you can't meld crit anymore and then meld either Direct Hit or Determination. Direct Hit will increase your damage by a small amount and determination will increase your damage by an even smaller amount but will also increase your outgoing heals by a small amount :D
@@FFXIVMomo Mm, should I meld Aug Exarchic or finish Aug Cryptlurker set? Appreicate the response though
Usually for building any healer gear you will start with piety by choosing piety based on what you are comfortable with. For new raider I think at least 1k-1.2k is a good start.
Other than that is like what momo said.
Usually, I will create "Best in What I Have" (or atleast easy for me to get one) set in etro.gg and then hop on to balance discord for their gear planner spreadsheet, make a copy, put my number in and compare my set with their suggested set. You will be surprised for amount of dps gain BiS set has over what you have. (Very little)
@@axestump3590 Yass, this is the juice I've been missing, thank you so much. I have no comparative info and no experience in gearing up. So while I understood quickly what gear I can't have, it's very daunting to know what can be done with the gear I have. I shall follow your advice and well maybe, try to wing it a bit more since I won't waste everyone's time with gear I have if I spruce it up a bit. 🙌
@@martam307 Sorry I was streaming while you posted this, the Augmented Cryptlucker stuff is generally better as it has a higher ilvl which means more main stat/HP at a basic level. Though it's not as easy when you try to optimize stats as a 520 exarchic piece with crit/det is going to generally be better than the 530 cryptlurker stuff gear that is det/pie.
Unreals are in no way harder, than current extreme trials
Why am I the only one in my friend group that likes taking it in turns to bully low level mobs
borpaSpin
Clean out your inventory man goddamn. (Great guide tho ;) )
That moment when your me and just want to get into raiding so you can get the 2b gear cause your a weeb
Should've mentionted that Low quality Food/Potions are dog-shit and should be avoided.
Yeah don't use any 15 second potions or low grade infusions.
You made it to be linked to Asmongold to get more subs as he is in ffxiv now , amarite? Momo truly is wise.
BTW, thx you for your work, some years ago your logs and tips made me from an average raider to an advanced league. You are one of the Titans for me, thank you.
seems way too complicated
So i am watchin this as i am laying dead in Eden normal because the fucking boss decided to make literally all of the arena except one fucking pixel a dead zone. How tf am i supposed to learn this? Pre-shadowbringers raids seemed wayyyy more fair compared to this bullshit. No telegraphs, nothing. Wooo imma cast something and you guess what it does.
do I know you?
Time to pester Asmongold to watch this on stream LETS GO BABYYYY
True
so if i want to raid i need a fucking resume? Wtf
5 secs in and youre speaking spanish lmao
seeing this makes me disappointed in ffxiv. Was hoping doing end game without resume not like wow was, but it end up another wow clone.
how to turn a game into a job guide
Raiding only ever becomes a job if you decide to make it so, just because a few niche statics are hardcore doesn't mean they all have to be. My last static was pretty relaxed about everything and one of our players clicked their actions with their mouse. Just fine a group that vibes
Raiding is a job you do not get paid for. Lots of stress. Lots of bulls**t. Lots of time invested. NO MONEY.
You can do casual hours in a static and prog at your own pace it doesn't have to be stressful or filled with BS, If that's the experience you've had with it in the past then it sounds like an environmental issue, like your static or mindset.
