    So the eyepatch is basically a holdover from the voidmages, rather than the original black mages. The purpose was to narrow their field of view to reduce the chances of accidentally making eye contact with voidsent and thus avoid being charmed via magic. This is also what the wide hat brim is for, so that a simple head tilt could remove their eyeline from sight easily.

    Bard definitely only has like 3 rng pools to pick from. Any real bard main knows it, subconsciously if not fully aware.
    My fingers know before my brain does which rng pool I'm in and I'm already pressing the proc right as it comes up every time without realizing because it really doesn't change that often lol. Bard is the only physrange job that needs a braincell to play optimally. With dnc and mch, you don't have to worry about where to drift your songs for perfect song uptime and to still have party buffs and burst line up properly. And yes, in Abyssos, you do need to drift songs to keep uptime.

    • @KaedysKor
      @KaedysKor Рік тому +5

      To be fair, that was changed a fair amount in EW. It used to be a lot more dynamic, since it was a lower proc chance _and_ you had two DoTs fueling those chances (since it used to be based on DoT ticks). So you had the chances of double procs, and the proc rate was much less consistent. Now that it's 80% chance every 3 seconds, the proc rate is super smooth. It's RNG in name, but as you point out, it's only _barely_ RNG. Dancers have more active rotational RNG than Bards at this point.

    Legit tip I wish more people knew as a Bard, if you pay attention to your song's duration you can predict when to use iron jaws to reproc your dots without having to keep track of 3 timers you only have to keep track of the one since all of them are 45 seconds, just make sure when you use the song you either iron jaws and weave your song in or do the reverse.

    • @KaedysKor
      @KaedysKor Рік тому +4

      Sadly, doesn't _perfectly_ line up, since you don't actually want all of your songs to run the full duration. First, you want to align with the 2m cycle, and 3x 45s songs is 2m15s. That's a lot of drift. Second, the last 3 seconds of a song are a complete waste, since you can't get a proc after the song hits 3s (they procs can happen every 3s during the song, but not as it expires). Lastly, the songs are not made equal, so you generally run Minuet and Paeon to just past 42s (ie. cycle when they have less than 3s remaining), and short-change Ballad, running it only long enough to hit the 2m cycle, which is generally 30-35s.
      So if you keep your refreshes and songs aligned, and do your songs properly, you'll be early refreshing (not the end of the world, over the course of a 10 minutes fight, you'll only lose 1 or _maybe_ 2 extra GCDs). Just make sure you do it that way, with the early refreshes, and you're not waiting for each of your songs to expire (or nearly expire) to refresh, as that'll push you way off the 2-minute timing window. Not only does this tank your damage, since you're not aligning your biggest hits and your best buffs with the other raid buffs, but since Bards are heavy support emphasis, you'll also tank the overall group damage by pushing your own 2-minutes (notably, Finale, which _relies_ on the song cycle) out of the 2-minute window, and providing the inferior Paeon or Ballad buff instead of the Minuet buff during their CD windows.

    • @Seeker265729

    I was astro main for a long time. I had the honor of playing while the cards were all unique and I loved it. Thinking IS enjoyable to me. All the card combos and every time I had the aoe boosted bole or spear I felt so happy. Then they changed it. No more fun combos... Then they took Nocturnal Sect away... the way I had managed to solo Ifrit extreme to get my first ever horse at 60... they took away the class I loved. So while I maxed it. It pains me to play it.

    Controversial opinion, WHM is actually horrible. I've spent the past few months leveling my classes to 90 and WHM seems to be the only one where it's both utterly boring and extremely difficult. Hear me out, the when I have a tank who's trash and doesn't use mitigations I have to constantly spam cure 2 (in early dungeons), otherwise he dies instantly leaving me no room for DPS or using any other skill. Meaning I'm standing there pushing 1 button over and over and over again with no thought. It's boring and annoying. If the tank is even "average" at his job I at least get to push 3 buttons C2, holy, and dots.

    @sirkyrxon936 2 роки тому +10

    On a real note as to not play AST (my main that they keep changing and the only healer i'll play) is that it's just undertuned. Its damage is the lowest of all the healers, and you have to overperform in both heals and support (cards) to still be 'mid' of the group. Sure it's a pure healer but WHM will always heal more, and do more damage. Even the WHM HoTs are better. I'd assume the class's damage is low in favor of giving cards to other players so that it evens out the total outgoing dps of the dungeon/raid equivalent to a group without an AST. But i feel like it doesnt even work like that since the cards give what... a 6% damage increase for like 15 seconds or something?
    Because AST is a complicated class no one wants to seriously learn, or even play, on the side of it underperforming (which ppl might not even be able to tell), is why it's the healer you shouldnt play

      At the 25th, 50th, and 99th percentiles, WHM contributes 4.5k, 5.5k, and 6.4k rDPS. At those same percentiles, AST contributes 4.5k, 5.1k, and 6.8k rDPS. When looking at HPS, AST outperforms WHM at every percentile. The issue isn't that AST is underperforming, it's that every rDPS job is automatically shit in DF/PF because nobody can keep their burst aligned, so you will never generate enough rDPS to justify AST's low nDPS, the same argument can be done for high nDPS jobs like SAM/RPR/BLM versus high rDPS jobs like NIN/DRG/DNC. All the top 10 ASTs for every fight are generating ~2,000 DPS from buffs alone and are totaling 7k-7.5k rDPS. For comparison, out of the tens of thousands of WHM players in this game, ONE (1) ever hit 7k rDPS in one fight. Might want to look at the numbers before talking out of your ass, "high skill ceiling" =/= "undertuned"...

    • @PossiblyMG
      @PossiblyMG 2 роки тому +1

      @@sirkyrxon936 you're being really vague with your anecdotes, it's impossible to take it as a valid point. By what metric where these healers "outhealing" and "outdamaging" you? nDPS, aDPS, or rDPS? What was each healer's overheal%, and how was it distributed? Each metric builds a completely different story. Do you have an anonymous log of you playing astro showing you are keeping 100% GCD and combust uptime and playing cards correctly under DPS burst instead of just throwing them out for the sake of it? Maining a job doesn't mean you are good at it or your opinion about the state of the job is valid.
      Astro didn't get any buffs because even the devs are aware that in optimized environments and in parties with high performing players, astro contributes more rDPS and more aHPS than white mage. Again, high skill ceiling does not equal undertuned, and buffing astro would legitimately break the job for week 1 progging and competitive racing groups. Don't believe me? You can look at the proof yourself:
      P8S2 statistics
      AST rDPS percentiles: www.fflogs.com/zone/statistics/49#boss=87&class=Global&spec=Astrologian&dataset=100
      WHM rDPS percentiles: www.fflogs.com/zone/statistics/49#boss=87&class=Global&spec=WhiteMage&dataset=100
      notice how astro outperforms white mage at every percentile, and this is also the case for healing:
      AST aHPS percentiles: www.fflogs.com/zone/statistics/49#boss=87&metric=hps&class=Global&spec=Astrologian&dataset=100
      WHM aHPS percentiles: www.fflogs.com/zone/statistics/49#boss=87&metric=hps&class=Global&spec=WhiteMage&dataset=100
      P4S2 rankings
      AST rDPS leaderboards: www.fflogs.com/zone/rankings/44#metric=dps&class=Global&spec=Astrologian&boss=82&partition=1
      WHM rDPS leaderboards: www.fflogs.com/zone/rankings/44#metric=dps&class=Global&spec=WhiteMage&boss=82
      You say "AST was at the bottom." Bottom of what? Enmity ranking? The ACT reading for aDPS, which astro is naturally low on because 20-30% of their contributing damage is redistributed by buffs? All I'm getting out of your opinions is that you haven't bothered to even try optimizing astro in any relevant content, or most of this would be self evident. It's completely fine for low nDPS, high rDPS jobs to only thrive in organized settings like a static and for high nDPS, low rDPS jobs to primarily thrive in party finder/duty finder while being swapped out for other jobs in organized settings.

    Having played old Astro, trust me. You don't miss those cards. Nobody does. They were nearly all worthless if they weren't named Balance. Increasing attack speed was a good way to get raged at since you would mess up where people were in their rotation for mechanics, and bole/ewer/spire were meme cards that only existed to buff balance. Balance fishing is *still* a meme that lives on even if it isn't a thing anymore because of how much it defined the job and kneecapped it's overall potential. I'm really scared when they revamp the job that we'll go back, because it was a god awful mess of a system that made Ast insanely inconsistent on the util it could bring and it's existence back then wholly depended on Whm being the worst job in the game.

I love the aesthetics of it, and it's way easy for me to play. (Just put regens up and away we go lol) Sage is my second pick for fave healer/shield heal, and I can smack buttons and have it do fun shit. Scholar is just UGH for complications and annoyance.
    As for BLM, I'll admit here I am totally biased as it's been my main ever since I started over 4 years ago, and it makes me happy to make things go BOOM. Buuut the whole basically turning into a turret to do the BOOM has gotten more and more complicated with several of these newer fights. I've honestly picked up Summoner for raids (both 8 and 24 man) now so I can have more mobility and learn the fights before going back to BLM to blow shit up more effectively. So yeah, totally accurate on that, even if it hurts my heart to say it.
