Even though we beat turn 1, it was like by the skin of our teeth and I figure it'll take us several times to beat it next time too.

Too much stupid monk loot too.


Hey I got more caster loot, isn't that what matters?

The build up to the first kill is always tense and challenging, I'm sure as your group gets more comfortable with farming the fights you'll be breezing right through as well.

Is it recommended to do Darkhold before hitting story-mode Garuda or is hat more of a test of tactics?

I have the ability to pick up some of the gear from that dungeon on the market place but not sure if I need it and I'd rather run the dungeon anyways since I appear to have 2 quests telling me to do it.

Kind of regret subbing myself. I don't like the end-game one bit. Once I hit 50 and tried a few CM and ifrit runs my desire to play completely disappeared.

I don't know what I was expecting. I knew it was going to be just like every other Wow derivative but I subbed anyways. At least I can level up other classes without rolling another character. I really wish the leveling experience had been more challenging because that's just about the only thing I enjoy in MMOs. Unfortunately MMOs pretty much suck when it comes to this aspect these days.

ifrit and cm are things you do at 50 sure but they hardly count as end game

Our first turn 1 kill was with Mira and Lieri being the only ones alive, wiped a few times in turn 1 on our second kill, and a lot more on our second/third kill for turn 2.

Think this week everything just "cliqued" (har har har) and we had a great run.

I'm sure once you guys have done those turns a few times everything will feel as easy as Sastasha. It won't but it will :P

need some advice on some good places to level at 39, as coerthas is so frustrating on PS3... the zone is too big and there's too much "competition." by the the time the fate monster loads on my screen, it's usually already dead. really frustrating. they really need to prioritize loading fate mobs before other players who aren't even in your party.

any tips on leveling spots would be appreciated :)

I didn't think that time when we won went that badly. Everyone seemed to be in pretty good shape except for Pit Bull. Now, whether or not we can duplicate that remains to be seen. lol

Did you ever get any of the stuff you needed from Brayflox? I probably won't be available to really play until Thursday evening, but you know I am always willing to live the dungeon life with you if you still need it! We'll have to hunt down a pocket tank or something. (Maybe bribe Giz :P)

Hrm, I think the biggest thing I don't like about DF Titan HM is not the idiots but the fact we have to have 2 tanks for the fight. You only need one fight. Another DD in that slot would make beating the heart so much easier.

Ask the tank to get out of tank stance and just go dps, but of course the problem is most tanks won't be used to being a dps. Warrior and paladin dps is lowest, but it's still respectable compared to most dps classes.

Foestriker's set, Infantry set, Allagan set, original AF set, and Gryphonskin set. AF2 looks hideous.

Didn't include Darklight because while the Corselet (chest) and Bracers (gloves) look amazing, the Caligae (feet) are meh on the account of being caligae and the Subligar (legs) is flat out garbage.

Yeah, I've run it quite a bit between my whm, brd, and now sch and I still haven't seen the robe drop. I've actually seen very little Battlemage stuff drop, though I lucked out this past weekend and managed to get the hat, pants, and boots. Until then I had seen probably like 1 piece drop. Gonna keep running til I get my robe at least (and of course til my friends I've been running with get everything they want as well).

Ok, as a Paladin I would appreciate it if someone can provide a few pointers.

When in a party and am facing the boss of a dungeon, I pretty much have no issues getting aggro from the main boss.

However, when minions start appearing, should be focusing on the them as well? I try do get all the aggro by using flash on nearby enemies, but sometimes to no success.

As long as the party is well geared and you build your limit break up two bars you should be able to knock the heart down 3/4 with DRG LB.

I agree though two tanks are kind of useless I mean if two people drop before heart is dead it's pretty much a wipe anyways especially in the DF.

250k is apparently the going rate on Ultros. It's supposedly higher on Legacy servers.

Just finished the story, and really enjoyed it. My friends and I decided to try out Ifrit HM. Our first 2 runs went off without a hitch, even tho our first run had my friend main tanking as a War and the OT was a War as well. Things hit the fan during our 3rd run though, we got a BLM who we believed was using a controller and more or less ate every plume and charge. I was rezzing him like 4 times a fight (as a SMN) and we wiped enough times til someone bailed. Is it possible to do endgame content using a controller? I know turning speeds are slower but idk if its enough to get you killed everytime. I guess I'm just glad I decided to pick this up for PC instead of PS3
