<(O.o)> Wow, just wow..

I am reading old forums on Final Fantasy XI when it was announced to be an online game. The posts were from 2002 and wow the hatred against the idea.

If I had to put any FF game up against each other for which I played the most, well.... hands down, it would be FF XI.
I think I first heard of the plans for FFXI in 1998 or so. At that point, the only thing shown was a chatroom-type program with "Cecil Harvey", "Terra Branford", and "Cloud Strife" chatting in Japanese. IIRC, FFIX, FFX, and FFXI were all kinda being announced around the same time, though FFXI had very little information at the time as practically NOTHING was done yet.

For example, ore, logs, skins, and other materials before they are processed to ingots or other items have been set so they cannot be stacked due to the fact that their size would make adventurers’ gobbiebags too huge to carry.


but carrying around several giant pieces of furniture, armor, weapons, an entire buffalo (for popping Saramaya), etc. is fine
I can carry around 80 full-size beds, but can't stack two glasses of orange juice.

You see, when the various juices and potions were implemented into the game, it was decided the bottles would be made of dark matter and thus be very heavy. The corks are just normal corks however.

Clearly all the gobbiebags are made with timelord science!

is 10 gigabit ethernet good?
yeah, it's 10x faster than gigabit ethernet :P

a lot of people can still run most stuff on 100mb, I just recently upgraded my stuff to 1gb.

At work we're upgrading a lot of stuff to 10gb fiber, so that's nice.

I'm watching my FC's second coil group do their their initial runs.

They've got two random Dragoons. Two idiot randoms Dragoons who're using a shitty rotation that's making me wish I could take control of Caduceus and Hood Swipe the ***out of them until they learn better. -.-;

The sad part is: it would quite possibly work.

Quite possibly? Twitch is full of it. Guys donating $250+ to gamer girls.

What rotation are they doing and what is yours?

Any non-AoE rotation that involves using Ring of Thorns is completely wrong. 120 TP for 150 Potency is stupid as hell. Not to mention they weren't weaving buffs, just spamming them and wasting GCDs.

My rotation:

HT IDC Ph TTT
HT TTT Ph TTT
Repeat

I get around 305 DPS if I can stay on a target full time for ~5 minutes. Around 380ish for the initial set.

It's the highest Potency Per Second rotation known so far. Credit goes to EasyModeX (and some Reddit people) on the official forums.

Yeah I don't keep up with the rotation things <_< Assuming IDC is Impulse Drive, Disembowel and Chaos Thrust and TTT is the Full Thrust combo?

I use

HT IDC Ph TTT with jumps/leg sweep in between and then repeat, is that good or bad? I don't play dragoon that often really.

You got em right.

That's the second best. It looses a liiiiiittle bit of damage because it doesn't get the full benefit of Chaos Thrusts DoT. Far easier to do properly though

I only use dragoon for stuff like CT really, it's not that geared. Full CT/hero's belt and then DL accessories until I get more myth. I play Paladin 90% of the time.

How much of an increase is your rotation?

I think it was maybe a 5% increase? Maybe a little higher. Not enough that you'll see a noticeable difference once you're actually dealing with enemy mechanics.

<random>

I slept poorly last night, so tonight I decided to make sure I slept very well by gulping down a Georgia Mud Fudge Blizzard right before bed. Well there's my problem! All the bad foods are delicious! (I regret nothing.)

</random>

Gnight AHers, sweet dreams to you all. ^^

I do HT > ID > BFB + Chaos > Phleb > Dragonfire Dive > T + LS > V > PSjump(PS is weaved earlier so no delay) > LS + F > TVF. When done right it gets Chaos till the end all in BFB. After that I reset HT > Phleb > IDC, when BFB comes back up I put it in front of whatever is more optimal to do given timers/boss health remaining etc.

Sheena Hayane taught it to me back in October. She always puts Dragonfire at the end though, but personally imo that makes you lose a lot more on Dragonfire.

Watching the very first part of it, he doesn't optimize BFB usage, and will be falling behind rather quickly.

I do, actually. Everything, including DFD and the next Heavy Thrust gets buffed by BfB. The buffs only matter for the initial hit of a DoT, it doesn't need to be up for the full duration.

Buffs also work when the ability is clicked, it doesn't have to remain up for the animation.

That's true, but the way I do it gets x2 TVFs into the same amount of time. Also when facing things that aren't a training dummy, it ensures you don't waste Impulse Drive potency when tanks/mobs/etc. make sudden turns or adjustments.
