Getting COR knowledge



BLM:75 WHM:58 SMN:41 THF:73 WAR:56 RNG:43

I had a thought this morning that nagged me to writing before going to work. If you have been playing a melee job for a while it's gonna seem rather easy to just sit there as WHM and heal since you have no ws to time or arrows to count or effects to cause.

Bad WHM.

It was just a bad experience all around yesterday cuz forming the party took a while, after about an hour someone left and then we waited for people to come out to Cape Terrigan, then others left or dc'd.

Memo to me: Never wait for people to come out to Cape Terrigan

We finally got the party going again and it seemed like the perfect party. It was PLD SAM THF BLM WHM COR. You're thinking wow the exp must have really come in. But actually without RDM the melees had no Haste; Without /WHM sub of BRD the melees had no Erase for their STR down effect from the crabs; and finally the most important fact that perhaps eluded my deluded state of mind...

COR has no Dispel and we were fighting Crabs.

Also, don't drink beer while forming a party.

lol some good points there. cor looks cool and all, and yes there are some very nice rolls (fighter's roll ftw!) but i still think brd comes out on top. no risk of busting, and you dont have to spend millions in bullets to do subpar dmg.

Besides, when COR rolls, the mages can't sit until he finishes playing with his rollers. That's at least ONE tick - and with high level clear mind, that's like almost 70MP lost.

And yes, that 70MP can break a chain.

O, and WHMs can Haste. They get Haste before RDMs.

Ya I usu like to Haste only the tank and if there is RDM then melees get Haste.

With PLD sometimes I will Haste two melees and not the tank but the WAR from previous pt which had a NIN kept getting hate so I didn't rethink it for the 2nd pt.

You have to be standing for COR rolls? OMG, I didn't know that!
