Okay I am not sure how a dps healer came into the picture but let me do some clarification I guess or at least clarify to the best of my ability. First of all again I believe I said in my first post a support class the focuses on buffing and enhancing party combat ability/defenses while debuffing/debilitating enemies would be a class I would love to try out. The way I see it, the amount of damage a party will take will be reduced to a notable degree with the right skills and rotation of such a support class, if such a class was coupled with a healer it would reduce the burden a healer may face at times in managing party health and leave them with an ample amount of mp no matter the situation. Also considering the party will be dealing more damage due to a supports buffs battles "should" end more quickly further reducing the overall damage a party takes in the course of a battle. Now of course the support class does need to do some kind of damage but nothing that deals out an abundant amount of damage over time, this comes in the form of the debilitation the class can cast and is just something that is more or less for level progression rather than legitimate dps. To further clarify such a debilitation would be that the enemy takes a certain amount of damage each time they either auto attack or use a skill is a viable support skill that would would work wonders in many battles. As far as healing is concerned since the class is support it will have some sort of healing but nothing as effective as a whm and what not, and to be honest the healing it would be doing would only be effective if the class is being used properly since it would heal taking into account the party has been optimized by your buffs and the enemies have been debuffed/debilitated appropriately, only then would a support classes heal really be effective. Now I do agree that IDK where such a class would fit in a 4 man party if any but I see the viability of such a class in 8 and 24 man raids. There we go, I think i made sense in all of that and if i didnt i am sorry:( but again I am not talking about a dps healer, I am talking about a class that focuses on making the party stronger and the enemies weaker making overall battles smoother.

Now that I think about it I did actually roll a necromancer on the first guild wars and I had a lot of fun playing as one. While it didnt have skills to buff party members I clearly remember debuffing/Debilitating enemies that it just made everything so fun, the class was very effective at damaging mobs since it had debuffs that damaged a target and those around it each timed it attacked making a good tank and necromancer quite the dream team. Even for boss battles it was fun to play as since I had to cycle different debuffs to find out which ones were most effective for the fight on hand

Yeah, I am aware Bard is more support oriented but like i said in my original post, I am wanting a pure support class, since bard falls under dps they have the added job of making sure they output a decent amount damage while managing the supports they have which is only 5 with no cross classing any other things that might fall under support. By pure support i mean a few attacks but mainly a balance between, buffing allies and debuffing/debilitating enemies

Okay now I have never played a pure support class in an mmo but after watching an anime called Log Horizon I would seriously like to give it a go on ff14 when and if such a class becomes available. I am not ff11 savy so i dont know what classes were pure support if any but by support i do not mean heals, I mean unleashing a wave of debuffs and debilitations on enemies allowing your party to do more damage, and buffing your party in a variety of ways to further increase damage or defense for that matter. For a better idea of what I mean here is a link to said anime I watched, Im telling ya the minute something like this comes out so gonna give it a go, It also showcases a tank skill I wish was on ff14 . http://www.animeseason.com/log-horizon/

Woot awesome I'll make sure to invite, could u also tell me the general time u are on so I know when to contact. also for others wanting to join also make sure to give the time your usually on so inviting becomes simpler

I am looking for people who rp the road less traveled, namely being the bad guy:lol:. I am creating an Antagonist FC but locating said members for it will be quite a task, so if there are any present villains lurking in the shadows leave a post here and i will surely get back to you, thanks and lets stir some trouble up in Eorzea and Hydaelyn as a whole :evil: (Balmung Server) Edit: For those who want a look see, not much on now but it will get crazeh http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=4810&pid=60519#pid60519

I cannot recall for the life of me if the beastman aetheryte crystal used to reach titan had a specific name. I know they called it abnormal to some degree but i think it was called something else as well and not beastman aetheryte crystal, if anyone knows can they please clarify, I hope to make use of this info for some interesting rp so if it can be found thank you

UPDATE: I did some stuff. Note though the FC has not been made yet, need to get the signatures and gil. The linkshell has been made though so I will most likely invite those who want to join until the FC is established. Also this is my first time running an RP and FC for that matter so please be gentle with me

Well I am trying to create a counter measure for all this at least in balmung if there be endgame geared players who wish to help other players in their endgame progression drop by the linkshell I recently created Knightsof unity no members yet but hope to fill the ranks with like minded individuals

considering the endgame will more than likely change since every 3 months New content should be rolling out the amount of people trapped in an endgame limbo of little to no progression will increase all I am saying is by getting a static group together that aids through endgame will surely save people a lot of hassle and mat get them to do the same

Its take gonna take some time and persistence but I'll be working on a group to help others in the endgame aspect. sure I can ignore it and eventually get done what I need to get done but considering the annoyance it is I wanna help people so we can all enjoy

A Mammet with a missing arm, slightly dented headand damaged leg walks among the public, many ignore its presence and simply continue their daily lives. This Mammet seems to have a destination in mind though; this intrigues you to a degree and you decide to follow it. You are not alone as well; all though not apparent others have been intrigued by where this disfigured Mammet is going to and are following in tow. The Mammet walks for some time, taking a turn here and there passing by old and dilapidated buildings and then stops moving upon entering one of them. The air suddenly changes and the Mammet turns around and looks upon those who have followed it, and then a voice is heard. “Congratulations, you all have decided to walk thepath that others would avert their eyes from, you all have decided to plunge into the unknown and seek out what lies beyond. By being here you all also share the same reasoning as I, this world we live in is madness and must be lead by individuals who can overcome that madness. You all have an ambition and goal you would do any means necessary to accomplish and I need that drive and dedication. Why you ask? Simple because we will become the new owners of Hydaelyn, we will create a world free from this madness and hypocrisy that many claim to be justice, we will create a world where those who seek truth will find it, We will create a world of true freedom, We will create a promised land that not even gods or primals will interfere with any longer. There will be many though who will not want this new world and resist. We will destroy all those who resist and remove those unfit for this new world. Everything you all do from now on will be part of the greater goal of creating a new world, Live how you see fit, Kill who you see fit, Die how you see fit, We are the saviors of this world, We Are Cetra.” The Mammet Doll then ceases to move, after a slightpause those gathered began to leave with a look of ambition and opportunity in their eyes and even bloodlust.

all the more reason to do something since its on legacy, i enjoy the friends i made on there, cool peeps and all but the endgame chokepoint has gotta clear up

I have had enough of endgame bs elitism and what not, as well as the other things that have poisoned the endgame. While it happens in other games as well I will make my very best attempt to solve the issue in this one and if not at least get very close to it, if you feel the same way I do keep watch on my future posts somethings gonna be done.

Idk about you all but my time as a levels 50 has been a nightmare when it at least comes to the relic quest cause all i see is and i quote "LF Geared and experienced". Okay two things here, one while gear does increases survivability it does not guarantee a win if people are not up to par. The fact that I see the same people day in and day out asking for such groups to me seems like whatever group they did acquire with their requirements still failed. The second part is experience, it absolutely baffles me in here and RL how people want experience but never want to give it but whatevs. This thread right here I hope to be incredibly useful in acquiring people who one, can at least enjoy the game after a wipe and not quit, and two can offer insight and strategy to those less informed. The purpose of this thread is to create a directory of people who wil not quit during primal or even dungeon runs because things are not going smooth and will be helpful and intuitive and not care about the requirements such as gear or experience.(one thing on gear, the fact the crystal tower will keep people from joining based on gear should indicate technically all pre tower primals and dungeons are doable with a variety of gear and strategy) The template to follow or use as a guide Name: Andras Goetia Server: Balmung Main Job: Dragoon Alt Job: None Availability: Usually 2pm-8 or 9pm Eastern Time Bio(optional): Hello fellow dungeon/primal runners quick tidbit about myself, I always stick around in runs even when the going gets tough, I believe in trial and error. Also if you want an uber kewl dragoon I am the one for you. See you around in game

:lol: Dem chairs are a game breaker. Lol but yeah I may have gotten too accustomed to Tera's combat to be able to react more appropriately to ARR's combat, maybe in time there will be an update the gives some people a little more time to breathe when a skill is being cast, especially when some have latency issues.

Idk about you all but for me the combat system is a love hate relationship. At times as long as i am out of the the aoe being preformed before the skill bar is full i avoid a decent amount of damage but what also happens is sometimes just because i was BARELY TOUCHING the AOE or attack range I get hit despite being far enough away to make myself a sandwich. The reason? its because that what is prioritized in those situations was the completion of the skill and who was in range at the given time which I find incredibly annoying at times when I am well away or even behind the monster when the skill goes off. Me personally I prefer it prioritizes who is actually in the attack range and not who WAS in the attack range but like I said its a love hate thing. My question to you all is what system do you like and or preference, the one right now that prioritizes who was present at the time of the skill completion or who is in actual range of the skill. (also you could say to pay attention more but when you have skills going off in every which direction by both party and enemy alike it can get a bit messy trying to sort out one skill being used by the enemy, at least to me at times)

once I get my main job geared out will begin forming an antagonistFC I believe your FC and mine will have a lot of interaction so we should definitely stay in contact

It's just easier on the tank - especially at low levels - if you stick with his target. Tanks are playing with half (if that) of their toolset, and they don't get really good snap-threat until about level 40. yeah my post was for more 40 and up if I see tank in trouble I spam some slow and to alleviate some damage done

Wait, is that how DPS see it? "If the tank doesn't take the time to mark everything, I'll just go after something he's not keeping the attention of?" Because sometimes I either forget to mark, or I have DPS that like to initiate if I take the time to do it. Running around is never fun. hmm u may be misinterpreting what I am saying I am talking about after the tank has pulled and aggro the mobile usually attack what it does not target, and as for marking I am saying for the most part people get what to do but when marks go down I make sure for follow them You want to always attack whatever the tank is attacking. If you don't, you'll almost certainly pull threat. Then, because the healer is healing you AND the tank at the same time, the healer will soon out-threat you and end up tanking. also whenever I do its never an issue I I make sure to watch my damage output

wow reading all this despite queue times makes me feel like a godly dps since I always go after adds in every boss fight and follow my marks accordingly and if no marks I usually attack the monster the tank is not attacking

Players who are in the eastern timezone of balmung sound off will probably be needing your aid on in event I'll be working on, will not be immediate knowing who is in my timezone will help

Hello every one not sure exactly if there is a thread like this already but here we go. This thread is going to be somewhat of a database for people to search for Rper's who have chosen to become the unsavory individuals of the world. If anybody ever needs that tension unknown factor in their rp this will be thread you can acquire one at hope this helps. Now for how the villains or however you designate your character archetype present yourselves it is rather basic and straight forward I will start off. Name: Andras Goetia Type: Anti Hero/Antagonist Specializations: Assassination, Sabotage, Intelligence gathering/Espionage Personality: Calm, Calculating, Ruthless (when need be), Whimsical (given certain situations), Social, Rare and random occurrences of volatile actions Best Suited For: My character is best suited for people who need a force to combat/outsmart/ do some dirty work or even just have a complete unknown factor in your midst. Concerning those worried that their will be a disruption of your already established lore, I am more than happy to adapt to a variety of scenarios and situations so we can all have a fun time. ****VERY IMPORTANT**** Can you kill my character: No (Can be injured, given to authorities among other things that all depend on the given scenario) Reason (Optional): I am currently working on an event in which in which I hope my character will be interacting with a multitude of RP Free Companies/Linkshells, given any person or guild who may join in on this who has used me before will cause problems seeing as how they killed me technically so the event can't really work out with 20 people saying they killed me XDDD. I mean while there are ways to go around it I feel that just not having my character be killable a simpler option and has less hassles. So there you have it, if any villains wish to add more in their own post you are more than welcome to, I hope this gives you all at least somewhat of a template to go on. For those who want to contact a villain you can go through pm or in game message. Thanks for reading and I hope this will help keep many Rp's engaging and certainly entertaining as time goes on, Have fun everyone :moogle:

Hello everyone, I am an antagonist of sorts and am starting to go to work at being one , currently I am formulating a plot that I hope will be fun, interactive and definitely give everyone some good rp to go on. http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=3870 that link goes to the thread I have regarding the things my character has done. Right now I am slowing moving the gears forward and my latest post is a speed increase I guess. As time progresses things will shape up and eventually reveal itself, what i want to accomplish is create an evil rp event in which i hope many people will take part in, in order to stop my menacing plan . However to do so I need to present an ample amount of info and intrigue to get people to want more and join. I plan to make this rp arc all encompassing meaning no matter what kind of FC/LS you are in everyone will share this lore within their group as a sort of canon/reference. (gonna take quite a while for me to plan stuff out so there are no times or dates as of now just keep track of my linked thread. Also I will clarify that this rp lore arc doesn't mean that if you participate, that this event changes any of your already set and established group lore it is something that can and prolly will be used for future arc events and is a fun way to build a connection with other groups IC and OOC who participated. I think I made sense in all of that, please if you have any questions, advice or suggestions please let me know so i can update this appropriately and clarify things. I am aware of gripes people have with overall bad rp villains and the methods about them but I am very accommodating, as long as the rp gets from point A to B I am more than happy to make changes in between so everyone can have a good time .Thanks for giving this a read and I hope you are all ready for what will go down cause it will go down and hopefully be in epic final fantasy style .)

The first thread of discord has been sown. There is talk among citizens,guards, politicians and nobles alike in hushed and somewhat fearful voices of a village whose location is undisclosed at the time. Something amiss and foul has occurred, from what information was gathered among the myriad of speculation and rumors here are the facts that everyone seems to agree on. First, all residents of that village are dead, Two, there was no indication of Garlean, beastmen, bandits or any sort of combat taking place. Three, and possibly the most confusing and mysterious part is that based on examination of the bodies it would seem all of the residents had their aether drained from their bodies and seems to be the cause of their deaths. Many are worried, an entire village gone without so much as a whimper and no one knows how or why it happened, perhaps it was only a one time thing? no many believed and were fearful this was just a prelude. A prelude to what? only time will tell. (Hello hope you all are enjoying this, If you all wish to try and deduce what occurred here feel free to post a reply and chat among yourselves IC. There will def be more regarding what happened and other things will also happen as well so make sure to stick around cause eventually this information will be useful for when you rp with me or with people regarding some of the things that have been going on)
