Character
It has been a while since I blogged again! Welcome!
An update I'd like to address:
A week and a half ago, I wanted to level my Bard (lv.56) to level 70.
Initially, it was always a job I enjoyed. Thanks to Logan Howlett's reminder,
I was able to find my love back to the job I did enjoy but took for granted. (Or forgot...?!)
Either way!
It is currently 10% away from level 70—and I am excited!
I will immediately attempt on gearing it enough to join o9s/Alphascape Savage 1.0
<Program analyzed>
<blip>
BOOM!!!!
DISASTROUS!!! Goodness, gracious. And here was I … at my fullest of confidence...
Truthfully, I thought I would get geared in a sweep with o9s, and o10s as a Bard!
NOW I see why sub-jobs are only done in practices! My GOODNESS!! How terrible!
I suddenly forgot how to BARD! Disastrous, I say!
<1 month later in RL>
I DID IT !!! Woop Woop!
A side note, however; I have tried clearing o11s as a Bard and have yet failed to complete this, due to the anxiety of such, I keep joining 'aim to clear' PT in PF.
This resulted in a constant wipe. However, I took a good notice the wipes resulted barely from my poorly barding! (Ha!) On the loop side, (ha!!x2) I have gained more confidence. I will one day, for sure!

*Not done yet... Q_Q must return to my infamous travel source and head back to EU suddenly out of some urgent dealings and secretive missives/business matters! ... <bleep>
I saw you did a lot of gearing up, so it will be easier now!
As of guides here is how jps handle helloworlds youtu.be/Q6a6cLBLsR4 and here is general knowledge thebalanceffxiv.com/guide/o12s_guide , this is timeline i.redd.it/i0ea4hgme5p11.png and as always PoVs of job you are playing are good knowledge on spacing. Try to search for Zeppe Monado he is amazing bard, so it’s a safe bet. As of M/F there is generally two ways how jp handle fight but it’s mostly Gender fix 1313.
Which means someone pulls macro, so you will choose which D you are going to be. D3/D4 are for ranged. You will get a visual where to stand during Optimized Fire and Beyond Defense mechanics. As well as where to go during Shield phase. As well as which boss you will be on before swap. Usually bards are D3 so they are on F. 1313 means that during trafficlight or “numbers phase” if you get 1 or 3 you are going to the opposite side of the arena.
Since you will most likely be D3, on F boss, you will need to stand lower than marker, further from the eye. Eye will jump around arena so you need to watch out lol. If 1 you run to the opposite of the arena, below marker and 1st in line, so 1 dash is going to you. After you got dashed you make a step back so 3 will step forward and take a hit.
If you have 2 or 4 you will stay on bosses you were on and below mark. 2 takes hit first, 4 takes second hit. No overlapping it’s lethal.
M/F is an easy fight but can snowball pretty fast into wipe. So you need to be careful with positioning and numbers, everything else is just... we still have tanks LBing last portion of mechanics so there is 3 mechanics overall for dps in that fight, the rest of them are on tanks so you should be fine. As for Final Omega try to focus on Hello World debuffs while learning guides, I honestly still don’t have a clue about any other mechanic there, I simply follow team lol.
Ah and also for final jps usually do HHTT, but the most common will be HTHT still. This abbreviation is for Patch mechanic. It’s an order for breaking tethers. As you can see tanks and healers deal with them, but blue will break if two targets tethered are far away from each other, green/red (it’s one tether I just can’t see which color it’s exactly showing lol) will break if two tethered targets are near each other. You can help a bit with that, but while learning I wouldn’t recommend that.
I am also free tomorrow so we can go try out how it goes. It’s a bit late now, so you can spam me on discord so I would wake up just in case lolol
