    • @leonavid1228
      @leonavid1228 3 ปีที่แล้ว +25

      yep he is capable, but regarding ultimate raids, its just that TEA is just too farfetched, UCoB ultimate is more realistically possible before end walker, he can theoretically if he drops his just chatting segment and completely drop new world in his alt stream, around 12-15 hours a day of streaming/playing ff14 and skipping each expansion raid and blast MSQ, then maybe a big effing maybe I'm talking, the cutscene are mind-blowingly long . Another thing to note, the problem is people want somewhat re-experience the story through asmond which is why people like zepla and xeno who have been around said its not possible to clear TEA.
      he is doing damn fine doing completely different combat system, just need to learn more advanced rotation, like the vod of xeno explaining double weaving. So, yep agree he is capable clearing ultimate.

      @Slevac 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There is just under 4 months till endwalker. That is honestly plenty of time for him to do what he needs to do even keeping his current pace. It's been about a month since he started and he has done almost all are content. And arr is large compared to other expansions. Not to mention a lot of his time in the past month has been him playing new games/content that was released, ashes alpha, new world beta, wow 9.1. Everyone is so stuck on the fact that based on how he plays the arr raid content at min Ilvl and how he has had to do tens of pulls in certain fights means he's gonna have a hell of a time in ultimates. What people don't realize is he is a new player, he doesn't know a lot of the mechanics yet, and a lot of them were his first time experiencing them. He's gonna get a lot more comfortable recognizing certain mechanics. Honestly I'd say the fight that will determine whether anyone can day for sure whether he is going to beat an ultimate by endwalker or not. Is thordan EX. That fight has a lot of mechanics in short time spans similar to ultimates, and some of the mechanics being just as deadly in ultimates resulting in an instant wipe. We probably won't see thordan ex though until mid to late August.

    • @JohnDCrafton

    Honestly even clearing Good King Moogle Mog on HARD is tough for a lot of new players, clearing him on Extreme with new players is actually a fucking achievement not just for Asmon but the people with him because that fight can easily devolve into a complete clusterfuck. I don't get why people are getting salty about him playing the old content on min ilevel, no echo mode. I'm just enjoying seeing it 'as it was'.

      Not sure how long it'll last, but these fights are still genuinely great and just instantly running them unsynced for the clear and to rush to mount grinding is missing out on some really great content imo.

      @@Robert_D_Mercer Actually FF14 DOES give more freedom on Macros to the point where you can literally macro a DPS rotation (it's also used during crafting) because it has the 'wait' command.
      However it's not as quick as doing it yourself and eventually you'll come 'unsynced' from your macro.
      So it's only really useful for grinding stuff if you're already way above it (and crafting where DPS doesn't matter).

      It's stupid how people want him to experience their pain when doing content on release, which is pretty much impossible now. Each of the job skills has changed so much ever since then, and it's hard to find a new people who hasnt done it now. Asmon already did his best to make it as hard as possible doing it with no Echo and min ilvl. I bet those ppl in chat who keep saying he's getting carried and shit never actually did old content with min ilvl and no echo.

      @@trignite Nah, I wouldn't say it's solely because of SE enforcing the rules. Like sure it plays a part, but even with the bans you'll still get assholes every now and then in dungeons and other contents - toxic players are everywhere in MMO's and FFXIV is not an exception. There are plenty of players malding others over failing mechanics or lackluster parser (in endgame raids especially), and most of the time it's not considered a serious offense.
      There are various reasons for the generally positive mind and high patience level of FFXIV players (especially towards newbies), one being the story connecting many players emotionally; two being the devs' transparency, constant engagement, and willingness to listen to the players; and third, which all MMO players deserve to feel, being the happiness that comes from playing a game made by developers that actually care about the playerbase and respect your time. Combine all of that, and you'll get an overall happier, healthier community. Unfortunately, this is also the reason why FFXIV players are highly defensive of the game; because it's something important to them, something they greatly care about. I do wish people would chill out more when it comes to this and not be so quick on the defense.
      I'm so sorry for your experiences so far with FFXIV, though. I did hear that the community in a few worlds/servers isn't as engaging as the others. If you're willing to give the game another chance, I'd personally recommend the worlds in Elemental Data Center for a livelier, more patient community. While it's intended for Japan, there are many English-speaking players there as well. (But have care - the ping might be quite high if you're playing from NA or Europe).

      As someone who... Does not understand furries, I'm actually more bothered by FFXIV's races solely because they're all just humans with their ears swapped out. Races like Tauren and Vulpera are hella furry, I agree, but at least they're actually a different species, you know?
      Hyur are humans, Elezen are tall humans, lalafell are short humans, Miqo'te are humans with cat ears, Roegadyn are big humans with broken noses, Au ra are humans with a skin disease, Viera are tall humans with bunny ears.
      At least the Hrothgar are actually a properly different species.

      Secondly: "Au Ra are humans with a skin disease."
      Okay, you don't like Au Ra. No need to insult people for what they like. They are a dragon race with skales and hornes. They have their own history as an race and their own lore. Like every other race.
      No need to be an as*hole if you dislike something other people like.
      Besides that the most popular races in FF 14 are Miqo'te and Au Ra by far (at least last time I checked).

      You WANT to do the savage tier entirely first, to get acclimated to your job to a higher degree, to weather some personal responsibility and actual dps checks, and also to improve your reaction time while maintaining a rotation in the face of mechanics.
      The savage tier isn't a requirement for ultimate, but you should yourself consider it one, because the jump from savage to ultimate is a big leap.

    Something that I think is missing in some of the dialogue around who did or didn't get "carried" is that somewhere along the line, every single new player enjoys the game with the support of more experienced players. That's not carrying, that's just...gameplay. It's a game. It's okay to be new, and it's okay to be learning. Newbie shaming is not a big part of the culture in FFXIV. In fact, the game is designed so that newbies are revered and appreciated - having a newbie in a PUG means bonus rewards, and a chance to enjoy mentoring and helping new players. What is so wrong with being new? Every single one of us was new once.

    not defending people saying he got carried in everything or anything but 100% clearing any ultimate (or any content for that matter but especially ultimates) with 7 people who have already cleared the fight before, or hell even with like 4 people who've cleared the fight before is a million times easier than doing it with a group of freshies. This isn't some like "oh lets shit on asmond thing" or elitism thing, as an ultimate raider I can confirm its just a fact as i've seen it first hand myself. Ultimates by their nature demand perfect play from every player, so having as a base 7/8 players who you know will do their shit right from the get go makes it IMMENSELY easier as it removes the "group" part of the challenge, leaving only you to make sure you do your own specific roles correctly for everything to go well.

  • @xantes0174

    To be honest, i'm not worried he can clear ultimates, everyone can if they are willing/can to put the time and effort to do so, and he seems definitly willing to. But doing so before endwalker, at the pace he's having right now, will be in my opinion nearly impossible. If he does rush to lvl 80, then 100% he can do it before endwalker after learning his rotation and setting up some macros.

    He is getting carried , not in the sense that he is bad , he rarely misses a mechanic once he understands it...
    but , if you were a random person in pubs , sometimes you'd wipe so much that you run out of time, because of randoms and new players. Someone has to take the leader role and explain the mechanics then , stupid-proof it as much as possible.
    Nobody even Does Moogles on extreme, too much pain and no reward.
    For instance in the Shiva fight , I had 2 tanks that Knew the mechanics and they still kept wiping the party by pointing the boss towards party whenever she would cast shards.
    We finished 5 before time limit. Other times you finish in 2 tries.
    In comparison JUST having Dominic Torreto alone makes 90% of encounters much easier than majority of the pubs, because this guy knows what he is doing.
    So whenever they say he is getting carried realistically HE IS, it only depends how you Justify it.
    Why should he put imaginary restraints on himself to do old content, he does it purely for the sentimental value ALREADY. So to be butthurt about him getting carried in some of these raids is like... stupid to say the least.

Its clear a few others aren't exactly use to the fights. In coils you can really only carry so much when you have something like min Ilvl in play. When it comes to ultimates being carried isn't an option at all and I'm pretty confident Asmon will clear the fights. Even if he goes in with a group who has cleared it before all it will do is save him time having to wait for others to learn the fight since he will still need to execute his part in the fight right.
