Totally 100% agree on the tankbusters, I actually liked how much more involved it felt to tank and I am guessing it felt more involved for healers too.
I don't think the tier is too crazy but doing PF and not searching for a week 1 static was a mistake.
I cleared 5-7S week 1 and got reclears but progging on 8S in PF is impossible, I actually started looking for a static because of it.
P6s is hell in pf. Spent almost 6hrs trying to reclear this week with people screwing up cach1 or puking on each other endlessly during cach2. Hopefully next week is better
While I agree with the tankbuster, I also felt cheap with the stage of the paladin as one of the weakest tank at the moment. If you invuln the hit, the DoT still hit hard because you did not mitigate the bleed even though Hallowground has very long cooldown. In addition, shelton block also does not mitigate the DoT damage too.
Personally, FFXIV charm was always you can play whatever you want, I feel that current tier you can not do totally off-meta comp and hit the DPS check for the door boss.
The moment i saw that DoT on my character when the tankbuster hit, i knew. Aaah so this is how they gonna try to avoid Invul cheese.
You have the two most broken dps jobs in your comp….
if you didn't have a ninja and monk in your group and instead a drg or rpr or some other combination of less meta melee you probably would of struggled more with the p8s dps check.
I agree on mechanic RNG having too much effect this time. Bad pattern gonna affect the ability to beat the door boss check more than any class swap.
had a pld and war tank with a DRG and also RDM… and I tell you it was a struggle with that DPS check.
don’t really agree on your take on job balance since you only had a few poor performers on your team. unless you are saying that it’s ok for some comps to be unable to beat the check. like a pld/war/ast/sge/mch/rdm/rpr/smn combo
Fuck p6. The mechanics are indistinguishable to me and I can't remember which is which because they all look the same but each has different solutions and… Just fuck p6. P5 and 7 were awesome. Currently working on door boss with static, really enjoying it right now.
Hi Ilya! How did you place your waymarks like that for P7S?
I've only gotten a bit into p7s so far, but I'm having a lot of fun healing this tier. They definitely made it harder on healers, and requires more thought and resource management, which has been an excellent experience
