These fights used to be 10 times harder back when the game had around 500ms baked in, plus around 200-300ms if you lived in the EU added on top.
You choose paladin tank, nice
5:39 ah yes using your invul skill and still dying while its on cooldown, classic damage snapshot supremacy
Cheers on the clear
oh shit the fire horse mount wow
Oh wow you are jumping in it. But yea the further you go in the story the extremes and raiding gets more difficult.
I feel rn these fights are a nice little introduction to people that are scared of Extremes and such. Not too hard but they throw some curve balls normal might not
Although the battle design of back then was different. It's more chaotic than now
He's cute!
ahah those early bosses tanks don't have to do anything meanwhile the healers are sweating bricks the entire fight.
glad you enjoying raiding
damn that was good. This extreme was a nice touch to dip your toes into fights. The game is paced so well, much like Psybear you're passing with flying colors.
Congratz
How does he have 22M Gils ?
Very nice Andy! For what it's worth, you're pulling with Provoke (Taunt), but it works differently in FF. Provoke doesn't actually do anything when no one has any enmity (it matches your enmity to the current highest in the party, which is value 0 because you're just starting the fight). The best way to open is Shield Lob only (and later on, heroic leap equivalent once you have it), which has higher than normal enmity generation for the damage it does.
so very nice, congrats
i hope you like all the other fights too
also as a tank myself, i am eager to see how you gonna like these
This was a fun watch, I hope this will be a good side game for you alongside WoW. Really looking forward to the new fights!
