I'm about to hit up my first dungeon as a tank (Marauder) (did not like playing Arcanist at all  :tongue: ), any tips/strategies to keep in mind? I know the bar isn't high in Dungeon Number One but I'd still like to do my best  :ha:

yesss!! :unite:

I'm about to hit up my first dungeon as a tank (Marauder) (did not like playing Arcanist at all  :tongue: ), any tips/strategies to keep in mind?

i've only ever done one dungeon as a tank, so the specific advice i can offer is a bit limited, but in general i think it's a good idea to let the others in your party know it's your first time! i still say this a lot whenever i start a new dungeons or raid, and i've been pleasantly surprised by how many strangers are happy to explain boss mechanics to me. as for tank-specific advice (which you should definitely take with a grain of salt), i think you should start with smaller pulls (the number of enemies you engage) and then work your way up to bigger ones, i think? this is another time communication with your party is helpful, because the size of the pull you can handle is dependent both on the tank and the healer. you're a team! don't worry too much if you die, usually you can teleport close-ish to where you died and you won't have to redo the dungeon from the start. again, i've been really surprised by how nice most of the playerbase is. usually when i'm in a dungeon where we keep dying, people will either offer advice or make jokes. in the 1000+ hours i've played, i think i can only remember one or two instances of someone getting mad. i hope this is your experience as well! good luck!

I've done a few dungeons now! People were helpful: mostly experienced players letting me do my pulls and explaining the one (1) mechanic to watch out for in the starter dungeons. I even have a macro set up that says 'hey everyone I'm new, what's the situation in this one' :ok: I like the dungeons the most of what I've done so far in the game, been playing it a lot the past few days!

I'm so happy you're having fun! It'll stay that way honestly, but the story itself will get way better later on.

As someone who really loves immersion and exploring worldbuilding, I can only recommend you actually read and try to immerse yourself in the side quests and (the first few times you see the) tribal quests, I think most little sidequests have good humor or an interesting storyline that contextualizes every single small settlement in the world much more than the main quest does. I find myself caring about them all by now because the little side storylines make me connect with the characters so much more! :O

Although don't be like my girlfriend and try doing them all at once, most of them are just fetch quests and might bore you; just do them when you don't know what to do and want to do something chill. Most lore in the game is actually pretty interesting and cool, including FATE descriptions, it's worth it if you're like me. :)

Good call! I've mostly been taking my time with the sidequests too but since I'm being struck by like 50 exp bonuses at once, I'm saving a lot of them for leveling other classes since the exp isn't as useful when you're overleveled by about 20 levels  :drat:

I'd been going back and forth on replying to this thread since its a bit old but... no time but the present!!

Hey! I play Mint Nainyene on Jenova Aether! I've been playing for a couple years now, and I've really fallen in love with it. I write a fairly large AU for the game, even! That's real proof of love for me, hahaha.

My sub is lapsed right now, since, uh, there sure are a lot of games coming out in the next three weeks I want to play. But aside from that, I'm on a lot!

Right now, my big goal is collecting every single Triple Triad card, which is waaaay harder than you'd think.


Are any of you looking forward to the 6.4 patch? The new ability to use furniture on your Island is major highlight for me, I can't wait to decorate.

Don't worry about these things! Older threads are just as valid to respond to as newer ones; after all, why open a new one when there already is one?

I don't think I can play with anyone, since I'm on Cerberus, but I thought I'd join in to show off my little guy!

Behold: Male Wife, my bunny boy! I mained WHM all the way up until the latest expac, where I switched to MCH for better parsing on the raids lol. Turns out, I have much more fun as DPS, so I decided to stick with it. I don't currently play much, and mostly just wait for new expacs to play solo and then hop in PF to raid with my friends. Would love to actually complete something like UWU or TEA... Last time I played I had made some good progress with a group.

Right now, my big goal is collecting every single Triple Triad card, which is waaaay harder than you'd think.

I've being trying to do this too just for collection reasons, but then my friend told me that there's a mount tied to the achievement for this and so now I'm really motivated to keep trying!

Cerberus is on Chaos, right? With a little world-hopping involved, I'm pretty sure we can play together!

Odo was just an idea. Shevek is the proof.

Omg you're right... That would be a lot of fun! I mostly do end game content but I don't mind helping others along in whatever they might need! Whether that's to help guide raid progress, clear dungeons, fill in a treasure map slot etc! Feel free to add me in game <3

I don't play the game, but I absolutely love this name  amazing.
Haha thank you! I tend to go for gimmicky names like that, such as when I played as a Lalafell (think tiny child race)— my name was "Literal Child" lol!

Edit: I forgot to mention, I'm also carrying the tradition with my friends of playing the opposite gender in game versus real life. All of my male friends are playing women in game, and so that's why I went with the tallest bunny boy in game myself!

Good to hear, haha.. I should know better than to get stressed about it, but thanks for reassuring me anyway!

Ooh, that's a good bunboy! (Love his name hahaha) His outfits really cute, I like it!

UWU and TEA... that'd a terrifying goal, you can do it!

I've being trying to do this too just for collection reasons, but then my friend told me that there's a mount tied to the achievement for this and so now I'm really motivated to keep trying!

Same! I got into it for fun, but the mount is really nice... Its a toughie though! You basically need to do 70% of all the content in the game! EXs, tribe quests, Eureka.... There's really all sorts of things on the road to the Triad mount... Plus, if you get enough cards there's character cards from achievements too! I need (EW spoiler)

Vrtra and Venat so badly...

Thank you! I have a few silly outfits for him, but I thought since I'm named Male Wife I might as well look the part too, dressed as a butler! Also, I'm unsure if it was UWU or TEA specifically, it might have been something else entirely, but just one of those fights, y'know? Have you completed any of them yourself?

You basically need to do 70% of all the content in the game! EXs, tribe quests, Eureka.... There's really all sorts of things on the road to the Triad mount...
Oh... Eureka... I was so down for every other part since I plan on completing all tribe quests etc anyway but... Eureka... In any case, I'm wishing you luck in our shared quest to the mount and especially in the spoiler content you mentioned! You can do it !!
