Fun fact: if you Superbolide while HoC is active, you keep the invulnerability AND get the heal because your health dropped below 50%. Remember this and help your healers :)
@@lizardizzle That is exactly what I do; Bolide INTO Aurora/Corundum, which together means im basicvally topped off without *any* help from the healer by the time the invuln ends. Particularly if theres a Scholar or Kardia on me Tanks in Endwalker do not need healers, and I wish expert roulette would just get changed into 3 dps + Tank already
Gunbreaker truly encapsulates the energy of guzzling 12 energy drinks and pulling an all nighter, Red Queen in hand, and blasting Devil Trigger, to then crash and burn the next day. Still fun to press as many buttons as it allows for though. Cheers Chair, im glad you still put so much work into these, and are as entertaining as always.

Honestly, part of why I love misshapen chair's guides is that he will tell the truth: that for normal content you can be suboptimal. If you like the job and aren't fantastic at it, you are probably fine.
If you're not hitting Max act on practically every attack demons just feel like they take longer to kill in general with Nero even outside DMD. Dante at least you can practically one shot the chunkier enemies like the giant bug guys with Royal Release, but I feel like Nero has to work a little harder to keep up. Then again I'm really bad at remembering to use any Devil Breaker other than Tomboy so maybe it's my fault for relying too much on buster throws and that lol
Don't forget that Continuation will also get Continuation, meaning you need to triple weave in your opener. It also bolts your Gunbreaker's feet to the floor at the same time.
Gunbreaker is like a class that use FF8 Squall as a base then mash it with Dmc feel combat, Top gun Aesthetic, The Matrix drip and Arnold shotgun crisp sound. PERFECTION
Finally someone mentions Arms Lenght not working with Vengeance, i noticed that immediately when i first picked up Warrior. It works if you use Arms Lenght and let mobs slap you for 1 or 2 autos before using Vengeance.
I picked up Gunbreaker because I wanted to tank at level 60 from the get-go. Then I unlocked Continuation and that instantly made it my new favorite main job. Weaving between the Continuation combos makes my neurons activate, it FEELS so damn good
Any time i see a chair video, i know there's at least one other video that didn't show up in my sub feed before the current one - despite that that's specifically what it's for - and yep. Double chair day, looks like. Don't worry, I know the algorithm at this point chair. Even if my feed is broken I will seek your content to support
Alright gunbreaker mains nobody really came here to learn their rotation so here's the real question what's your favorite Platinum game that didn't do well either critically or financially?
him talking about no mercy window is the sound of a 2.4 GNB main, slowbreaker (2.5) is early weave for the purpose of alignment from 2 cartridge burst, because you have to make burst strike end at the start and start at the end to get its potency in (edit: this only applies to 3 cartridge capacity)
One of my best GNB Moment.. wasting a Benediction literally in the same frame where i used Superbolide (i was on 100% life for maybe half a second) 8:44 in P11S the double tankbuster was middle in the 6 Min Burst and ffs i love it!
6:17 I have 4,000 hours in this game, I have done almost all the content hard or easy the game from offer... BUT I NEVER KNEW THAT THE ICON ON THE DAMAGE TOLD YOU IF IT WAS PHYSICAL OR MAGICAL.
Continuation on Burst Strike is like Tsubame-gaeshi on Shinten ._. and that Double Down isn't a natural combo with Bloodfest gives me Endwalker Launch NIN Flashbacks xx
I gotta say, as a new player to FF14 to play with my girlfriend, and both of us being huge DMC fans, clicking on this video to learn Gunbreaker and all of the DMC memes popping up feels like destiny.
This jobs whole issue with having to delay burst every 6 mins from the 3 min mark would be solved by having bloodfest only give 2 carts. That and having continuation be able to stack up to 3 charges (similar to how ninjas raiju stacks work after raitons) to make the job a bit less restrictive, because we all know having to mit when continuation comes up feels bad because continuation i straight up ‘use it or lose it’
I started 14 as a paladin, drifted around, ended up preferring DPS gameplay but couldnt suffer the duty queue times. GNB is the perfect compromise for me-- all the DPS keyboard smashing i can take with minimal wait times for said smashing. plus, healers like me now.
I tested the warrior vengeance and arms length thing and it doesn't in fact apply the slow if you have vengeance up. but if they're already slowed it works as advertised.
The most fun version of gunbreaker was 90s bloodfest endwalker gunbreaker at level 80 because of the one scenario in shadowbringers where your main combo would fall off due to having too much burst. (Jokes aside, as someone who plays this job in savage a lot, current 90 gnb is fun, I really enjoy it, but it does feel mroe clunky and awkward that before in a way that i don't enjoy as much, I hope next expansion they find some way to smooth things out so you dont have to intentionally overcap cartridges just to stay on track.
As a GNB main. I’d say If you wanna play tank, don’t play GNB. You might as well just play MDPS instead, if you want that vibe. GNB is just a strict fast paced tank that punishes tf outta you for any amount of down time, and has 0 flexibility in hard content. 😭😂 (end me)
One thing I want to clarify on this video, when Chair says use mit and heart of corundum, he means use mit and heart AT THE SAME TIME. Too many tanks using one mit at a time in double pulls.
As someone coming off from melee dps into being a GNB main, I'd say GNB is a biiit more "like a melee" because it has no mercy but it might just be me. And that 9gcd still makes my latency cry, I have to live with the slightly misaligned and cry myself to sleep as a result until I someday tackle hard content again and practice the 8/9
Or be a true 'adventure plate has not been created' gamer like my most recent dungeon tank, and use only heart of corundum for mitigation, making sure to always and exclusively put it in your single target burst window for peak damage.
While I agree on the idea that some jobs should be more punishing for those that want that, at the same time it took a job that was semi punishing in shadow bringers and made it much more so in the next expansion, it made my favorite tank to play into my least favorite tank to play with just how inflexible it is. and it sucks because every other tank is just brain dead easy besides drk with its burst, and theres not really an inbetween anymore.
The only thing I really dislike about this job is when I only have 1 GCD of time left before Gnashing Fang comes up, about to hit my combo-3, and I'm already at 3 Carts. if I hit the combo, it'll overcap on Cartridges, and if I spend a cartridge, I'll delay Gnash by a gcd, or don't delay it, and drift Double-Down like crazy. Thankfully, Gnash drifts by default if you have any Speed other than 2.5, and there are no 0 SkS rings at ilvl660 right now, so unless you want an ilvl650 piece in your best in slot, you need to have that variance in there. It's one of the few jobs in the game that I've actively sought out optimization guides for. I can see the pieces, and most of how they fit together, I just needed that little bit of guidance for how to work it properly.
Also as for sub-max ilvl stuff, that's totally normal. Lots of jobs that can't function with SKS (MCH, PLD, etc) will use a 650 ring in their BiS sometimes. Correct GCD tiers >>>> 0.4% more Strength or whatever.
This. Basically. Full combo on pull, go into 2 minute with 2 powder gauges and on final combo step, sonic, bz, AOE dot, double-down, finish combo straight I to gnashing combo... Fuck it feels good to line it all up
It didn't give any variation. Using it outside of 2m was wasteful, it was just a damage loss vs holding it. The change didn't do anything beyond marginally lowering GNB's skill floor by preventing people from using it badly.
@@Saterienne except that isn't true... using it on cd was universally better due to higher cartridge generation, holding it for specific scenarios where downtime occurred (or at end of fight where you wouldn't lose the cartirdges etc) was an option, not the 'correct/optimal' way to play (except for the situations where it was. using it on cd was a gain in 90% of cases though)
we do not believe in slow breaker - AMEN too bad its the busiest and lowest dmg tank when u play 2.4 Edit: your opener combo didn't take the mandatory reverse drifting into account to make fast breaker viable. after your 1-2-3, you still got ur pot active so instead of another 1-2-3 you wanna pop a burst strike in there and later on reverse drift gnashing back into place. that way you maximize ur pot dmg. do the same at 6 minutes
I literally just don't care and space out my oGCDs enough that I only have to do one double weave. That's basically how I try to do every job that requires double weaving "how much can I space this shit out"
DD is almost a 60 min cooldown button so it should align with NM. people would usually pop NM first, start the gnashing combo then DD so technically you should be able to do it on cooldown
I've raided on GNB for a long time, and finally this last raid tier just went to my secondary, WAR. HoC is insane in a raid setting but the three cartridge system and lack of significant damage difference just made it not worth it. Why have 6 different rotations in TOP when I could just go WAR and do the same thing, with basically the same damage potential?
Gunbreaker was my gateway drug into melee DPS
Did not expect to see you here
Creeps you play FFXIV? I would not have guessed that but that's awesome to hear man
Creeps wtf, that's crazy. Longtime fan, made my childhood.
creeps plays ffxiv...i was literally listening to a bunch of his narrations while i grinded for ARR relic ytd :')

Fun fact: if you Superbolide while HoC is active, you keep the invulnerability AND get the heal because your health dropped below 50%. Remember this and help your healers :)
What is you activate HoC after Superbolide?
@@lizardizzle you'll probably be healed over 50% by then, so no heal proc

I still don't have enough buttons to push, even at level cap lol
I appreciate the little gunbreaker tips amidst the DMC guide, good job chair!
Seeing GNB depicted as having a six-bullet chamber gunblade but only having 3 cartridges gives me a _conniption._
To be fair, a lot of gunblades don't even have one chamber.
For some reason.
The ones that are just "this is just a sword" give *me* conniptions.

I heard from a relaiable source that Fated Circle will have a Continuation trigger in Dawntrail and will be allowed to carry 4 bullets.

One thing I want to clarify on this video, when Chair says use mit and heart of corundum, he means use mit and heart AT THE SAME TIME. Too many tanks using one mit at a time in double pulls.
I usually let the first 4 seconds of heart pass before using another mit

Dawntrail will have GNB rework and revitalising of skills....From leaked patch notes: Double down will become Triple Down. The end.
Why did I never use Arms Length on the Antlion before today.
gunbreaker will get a fourth bullet in dawntrail. bloodfest is gonna give you 3. the 1,2,3 combo will give you 2
If you want REAL uniqueness with cooldown recast timers, just ask for Bloodfest to be a 150s cooldown or 110s. 🙃🙃
Does Gunbreaker do double damage to Machinists in PVP? I feel like they should, going by the name.

wait is gnashing fang one button now with continuation like the hotkey mod? does it still take hours to fill pubs?
“The choice is obvious… samurai” 😂
That thing, your black mage guide, hand it over
Wow my opener was nothing like that.. i gotta try that out!!
Depends on skillspeed. If ur below 2.5 this video is correct. 2.5 tho its wrong

The guide is completely invalid, Chair forgot that you get an extra hit every GCD if you press R2 exactly at the time the Gunblade hits the enemy.
I hecking LOVE buttons
Gunbreaker made me finally make a macro, just for Superbolide, so my healers stop having heart attacks when I use it.
we do not believe in slow breaker - AMEN
too bad its the busiest and lowest dmg tank when u play 2.4
Edit: your opener combo didn't take the mandatory reverse drifting into account to make fast breaker viable. after your 1-2-3, you still got ur pot active so instead of another 1-2-3 you wanna pop a burst strike in there and later on reverse drift gnashing back into place. that way you maximize ur pot dmg. do the same at 6 minutes
"we do not believe in Slowbreaker" -> 2.40 not even listed
I learned so much... about DMC.
10/10 guide - subbed p.s devil trigger theme at the end made me cream my pants.
I still prefer Vergil, although parrying a Fury as gunbreaker is quite satisfying.
He was right, drinking makes tanking really fun!
I literally just don't care and space out my oGCDs enough that I only have to do one double weave. That's basically how I try to do every job that requires double weaving "how much can I space this shit out"
Hey, I have a question! Should I use Double-down on cooldown only only sync up with Bloodfeast burst window?? I always found it hard to use
DD is almost a 60 min cooldown button so it should align with NM. people would usually pop NM first, start the gnashing combo then DD so technically you should be able to do it on cooldown
top 10% of players know what a GCD is bottom 10% = mentors so true.
I've raided on GNB for a long time, and finally this last raid tier just went to my secondary, WAR. HoC is insane in a raid setting but the three cartridge system and lack of significant damage difference just made it not worth it.
Why have 6 different rotations in TOP when I could just go WAR and do the same thing, with basically the same damage potential?
I just put everything on a combat macro and press R2 and square. I do good enough.
can you make a video on how to play lone knight gunlancer
The chair \o/
i apprciate the DMC tutorial . ty
