I cant get enough of your videos, keep up the great content, and congrats to editor person for putting this together !
apopreciate this! remoinds me of PoE university which made me so much better at PoE. I just got GNB to 80 and want to start tanking stuff so this is grerat
Solid knowledge my guy. I never knew how D.Drill ACTUALLY worked.
This is awesome, thank you Xeno!
wow, we wiped so many times on Kefka, and we'd always spread far away for his Wings. thanks for showing that clip, that makes understanding how to keep uptime better for when I encounter similar mechanics in the future!
Especially with Endwalker coming out soon I’m glad someone is making sure people doing high end content know what the different types of enemy attacks are considering we are all about to be doing a lot of blind prog soon. I can tell you how many “high-end” raiders only know how to do fights by following guides to the letter like it’s Dance Dance Revolution or something.
Xemo's content game has been on point lately. clearly learning a thing from asmon's grindset. keep it up xeno!
GGs to the editor… he really is putting in work condensing all the info Xeno provides so it can be easily consumed
A good example Xeno you should have included since we will be seeing thordan ulti soon, you should have included the spear throw where tank has to stand in front of the healer, I'll be kinda bummed of that mech doesn't reappear, not gonna lie back then you would feel like a bad ass stopping that spear from nuking the healer
chef's kiss
I've been looking for something like this for a breakdown on busters.
This is actually really helpful
Thanks man
Madge
This guy is so toxic bro, I can't fucking stand him.
Jk, Xenos based as fuck.
Good content 👌
For us wow players who played tanks. Tank Busters is what we would call a taunt rotation.
ESO is the only other MMO I've played, and it's vastly different from XIV so I was pretty overwhelmed at first. I was so goddamn confused when I heard people talking about "towers," I had no idea what they meant. "Meteors" made sense for me because the first time I saw them they actually were meteors, but I didn't know why everyone was just standing in place letting themselves get hit. "Stacks" didn't make sense to me either because I didn't know wtf those arrows were. I didn't understand how proximity AOEs worked either. Pretty much everything confused me except for "tank buster," that's probably the only one that makes sense without context. The name kinda lets you know what it does.
Hall of the Novice is a goddamn joke and the only thing it's good for is that ring.
since when i discovered Xeno i keep busting, sometimes on my tank.
Tankbuster Lore? Hell yee.
Technically, Chimera's "Rams Voice" and "Dragons Voice" were the first iteration of Chariot and Dynamo, no?
Also the 'Bomb Tankbuster' I always call 'Brandamante' also because of Nael Deus Darnus 🙂
Hall of Novice should be mandatory and expanded
Thanks for the explanation!
Wish there was background for the chat window so I could see their responses, can't read a thing lol Well when there's white background
9:47 the boobas in chat lmao
Same good content, same bald head, same favorite ff14 content creator 👍
bald
Please give me More content daddy 🥵💦
Can we start calling him professor xeno?
What's the first song in this video?
You forgot the flare tankbuster, which is very common nowadays. Showed up as G100 but now because it's standardized for Flare mechanics we call it the Flare tankbuster (though I do slip and say G100 every now and then)
For future vids when you teach new players, you should put on your scholar hat and make those sprouts take notes
thx man keep them coming , as an old tank in other mmos and new in 14 i really need these videos
Is this going to be on the test tomorrow? Is Rich going to be there? Madge
Thank you so much. i was wondering what kind of busters existed as fresh tank. these things intimidated me for going higher difficulties since everyone expects newe tanks to know everything about a boss
lol i've been playing since 2.0 but didn't raid until stormblood and never heard the term chariot or dynamo till Ruby Weapon. It's always been out and in for me though protean has always been protean.
One tank buster which i really like was one i have only ever seen in seiryu ex, where he puts a "Karmic Curse" on the mt and follows it up with a heavy hit, If that hit deals damage to the person with that debuff, when it falls off it deals a raidwide that seems to be equal to the damage soaked , which if you do not mitigate it or try to tank invuln with one that prevents death instead of preventing damage (war, drk) it will simply wipe the entire party (bar the tanks) Granted it's almost never used but i thought it was prety cool.
Thanks Xeno, this is going to be super useful with players unfamiliar with high end raid mechanics or just mechanics in general because causal stuff is very face pull.
this dude's beard is a tank buster
Man, can you do more videos like these? And like your how to not suck videos? There isn't really anyone else giving this level of detail about jobs/mechanics, and this well explained. Would love for non-tank jobs too but understand you main tanks so I'll take what I can get
As a newer Healer main, I really need to know this kind of stuff. It's great to look at guides that list effects and be told the general mindset, but learning specific terms while seeing detailed examples really helps cement the lesson. Most healers I've met don't know the first thing about other roles in the same raid, so knowing this helps me prioritise and plan ahead.
Can't wait for Asmongold react to this lol
Thank you for these tutorial videos!
one thing to note about distance based tankbusters is that you cannot debuff those with stuff like reprisal, addle or feint because the entity that is handing out the busters is untargetable (in that example its coming from the water nados) even if theres a boss present. If the tether were to be coming from a targetable source or boss, then its debuffable.
Dude these videos have been absolutely incredible. These will be my first recommendation to new players wanting to improve their skill
As someone who hasn’t finish shadowbringers and picked warrior main, this info is invaluable. Tyvm.
Props once again to the editor for the flying text as well as the chaptering of the video for future reference. I remember seeing most of this live and this level of formatting is MUCH easier to understand and absorb.
Professor Xenos bringing knowledge to the streets 😤🙏
Titan's Mountain Buster taught me tank buster etiquette in 2.0 …
realy thanksim new player at this game i realy like this, thanks pls do more videos like this .
Hits you and puts a bomb on you? cues Kira Yoshikage's Theme
I'm surprised they didn't give an ability like that to Kefka. It would suit him well with how chaotic and destructive his magic is in the Dissidia games. So unpredictable.
Very nice formatting on the editors behalf; especially with the video chapters. Having raided myself since 2.0 this was still a nice refresher, and would be perfect for any tanks wanting to raid in Endwalker.
