If you need 4 kills and you get 5-7 mobs i mean you kinda gotta kill the 8th for pts. Or you sleep them and port up?

Yeah man if you can 3 step stuff that's solid. And yeah I occasionally allow myself to get dragged into extended floors. If you need 4 kills and you get 5-7 mobs i mean you kinda gotta kill the 8th for pts. Cuz sadly, especially in temenos where the ??? is like bigfoot rn.. 5 climbs might leave you to 40K/50K. And I feel like the time spent / units acquired ratio dips a bit when all the chests are gone. You could find an off path camp with a favorable mob and just stay put for a while and pile up 85/170 points every 2 mins or so... no travel time at least.... tbf if the chest is gonna be 3K more often than 5K its not that much slower smh lol.

Not sure about solo solo.. i always (to this point at least) have had a BRD and a COR running with me. Depending on how locked in I am, whether i SVCC, get annoying links, 15-20 minutes per "zone" (ie. West, Central, NE, SW, etc) seems avg. Id imagine solo you'd need to lean on multi stepping so SAM probly as good as any option. I've tried WAR, SAM, and DRG. With buffs, DRG is just wrecking stuff. Diarmuid to Diarmuid is usually an overkill unless I miss (only get 2nd hit) the second one. If I only get 2nd hit on the first WS, I can still kill it with the second if I have full TP and its a squishy mob.
I'm a COR main and part of me wants to say, if your solo and only have trust buffs, maybe COR... but there was some floors where leaden is not super useful. Anything you can leaden / AE / Leaden / Wildfire and not even need chaos... COR would be great at. Barring that, WAR and DRK at least aren't as attack starved low buff.
I see... It's probably something I just need to iron the kinks out on then. I ran with just a couple mules for that first go and some trusts. I'll try it with full force now and work on getting that time down to something more manageable. 15-20minutes per wing makes sense, Gonna make adjustments and see if I can't pull off an hour run I wasted a lot of time with unnecessary adds and dicking around killing mobs I didn't need to haha.
And yes, Skillchaining is the way to go for sure. Not enough HP to 4-step so 3-Stepping Shoha>Kasha>Fudo works good.

Just finished my first Temenos run. Took me entirely too long to do but I was liking that I could just take my time and move at whatever pace I wanted haha. Was using outdated SAM on 130 and it took 3 full hours O_o;. First run and breaking 2 years of rust off but I know I can do better than that lol. What times are people normally getting for Full-Clear in here? And are there any jobs that have a strong advantage in this sort of stuff?

The point is whenever something takes good hybrid damage and you make use of that, it will be doing 99999 if you are buffed and changing r30 Nyame from path B to C wont change anything for those hybrid WSs.
I realize this is a bit old (hey I was away on vacation), but thought it was worth mentioning...
I don't agree with the premise that whenever hybrids are good, they are hitting 99999, and that's a vital assumption for Simon's reasoning to work. It is very frequent for me to run into situations where hybrids are my best damage WS on NIN, but they aren't capped damage - even in something sort of low key like Sortie with typical BRD+COR buffs, I might be doing ~70k average with hybrids, or less on 4th floor Sheol C. Or in Limbus, with mobs getting more DT, it's highly likely to run into situations where hybrids are NOT hitting 99999 but are still your best option.
For any situations where you actually are seeing very consistent capped damage with Chi/Teki/To, then I see Simon's point. I just don't often see that in real situations. It is also very rare that I'm ever relying on NIN nuke damage. Therefore, I would rather keep the better hybrid WS damage piece (and WSD piece for that slot for every job). I can live with using nuke pieces that are merely second-best to Nyame C. Maybe my decision would be different if I was someone who played... IDK, BLM SCH NIN as my priority jobs, and thought I'd get enough out of a C piece to make it worth trying. That's not my situation though, so I'm happy to stick with B path Nyame.

I've been updating the wiki cutely as I've been plodding along... and my contributions are all still current...
---
It's been about 2 weeks since I returned and I feel like I haven't really accomplished much of anything. I didn't think exping would be so slow? Maybe I should show a little leg or something to get cleaved or something.

yeah when I can actually get the stars to align, I do really enjoy the act of going to the gym and feel satisfied about the workout I did
seems like sucking it up and doing it when I don't feel like it is going to be the challenging part

The issue is almost certainly on SE's side. There have been many complaints of disconnects over the last few days from people who rarely if ever have network issues, and last night FFXIV had a server go down entirely. While I can't prove it, I have a sneaking suspicion that the hardware maintenance they did last week may have broken something in their network stack.

Ive been having this issue lately. I read one of the old forms said try a VPN. I tried NordVPN and havnt gotten a d/c in like 2 days. I just tried this method this week.

Saw this asked for a few times, Sockfoot already made it, i just upgraded it to account for basement objectives, it counts muffins, cases, and sapphire/starstones. This is really my first foray into lua, DM me if you find an error and I'll try to fix it.
Known issues: sometimes it counts cases/stones twice, not sure why.
Obj C4 is counted as E (hopefully fixed in the next day or 2)

I feel like ls message is the spot for this info since its server specific. Or if you are on Asura you need a bot to tell you where it is i suppose lol.

What sets should I prioritize first? What weapons should I work on to go with those sets? What is some good end game content I could take pup to to succeed with?

If ppl killing on portal is the problem, the fix is easy enough. Getting everyone to do it tho.. not so much. Im not gonna take credit for this move cuz I didn't invent it but its useful.
So if you have a bunch of ranged or casters on you, beginning of temenos floor or end, you run back to the portal room, go just inside the door and immediately tuck yourself (or whichever of your alts pulled/has aggro) into the corner right inside the door. Mobs cant see you, all come right into the room easily. No need to "pull back".
And if thats not the problem, well idk lol.

Vyre, you are no longer 20 and immortal.
This should be a mantra you repeat to yourself every time you go to exercise, preferably while stretching and deep breathing.

Network connection check in the POL launcher network settings? Tried it both ways with same result unfortunately.
More than likely your GPU is entering some power saving crap and killing the background frame rate.
Are you using dgvoodoo? Yup, set it up per the guide and consulted some smarties to ensure I did it right.
Have you checked Event Viewer on windows 11 yet? Unfortunately since the program doesn't crash out, just goes back to character selection, it doesn't seem to log it.
Have you tried turning it off and on again? I'm about to try turning it off with my boot.
Using a VPN solves these issues. Tried it with and without ExpressVPN, multiple protocalls, wired and wifi, several different wifi connections across the country, and one out in the Gulf of Mexico.
personally, i think 90% of this thread is snake oil I getcha, but I can either try this stuff or go play angry birds.

Is the issue with your shoulder on the same side?
Yes, actually. Both issues are on my dominant hand side, my right side.
Back when I had regular(free) gym access in college and The Navy, I didn't have any issues.
Got my bench up to 245 when I only weighed 150. Squat to 425.
But I haven't lifted in a regular free weights setting now in about 7 years. Haven't tried(also am cheap).
Issues started, like I said, from body resistance exercises and the shoulder thing out of the blue.
Haven't felt like I've been compensating for anything, but maybe it's a combination of all the stuff and putting on pounds. I'm about 19 pounds overweight from what would have me rope and choked by Navy PRT standards.

well idk no tem ??? all week on any server. Only times ive seen it on asura it was in a big square room with gigas on 2nd floor both times. Cant imagine you'd have to do it there. But if killing aroudn the portal is messing it up... any other server seen it near end or start or a floor?
Temenos everyone just sneaks/invis and runs to the end, kills 4/7 mobs and ports. Huge packs of mobs are bypassed.
Its probably 1 mob type at a time can spawn the NM and its pixies or something dumb right now.
In Apollyon the mobs are mixed together so different mob types are more likely to be farmed on the way up. Asura has had 3 ??? in Apollyon this week alone.

Also find something that you enjoy doing that motivates you to be better. There are a lot of things you can do that aren't traditional "exercise" This. Example:
My best friend, conically overweight since she hit 30, arranged for an ex to settle a debt by adding her to his gym membership. She went sporadically for a few months to swim and exercise. It didn't last.
Some years later she was able to buy and build the goat farm of her dreams. She happily lugs 40 lb, 18 kg, sacks of feed and deals with other heavy items while loosing weight and building muscle tone.
The goats are cute.
