Ancient Circle and Dragon Break, get your trishulas ready. We will be needed next month.

Thanks for never inviting us to Ambuscade before. Time to repay the favor!!!

Eh, I've done Ambuscade with DRG's before many times over the past months and year. In many cases, there's multiple ways to beat these NM's so hopefully people aren't just now seeing what that job can do.

That being said, I don't expect the average PUG to have a lot of previous experience with DRG.

Inb4 the gimmick is to not have Ancient Circle active/take extra damage while Ancient Circle is active/Ancient Circle makes it flail/immune to polearms.

This is SE after all.

The MNK fiasco and the string of empty updates has left me very bitter, so I've unsubbed.

The Wyrm has 99% DT- on it.

The only way to remove it is to put Angon on it.

Oh, btw, the Wyrm is immune to Angon and all DT- debuffs.

Hilarious, I could see them doing that.

Do you own Square Enix stock? Just threaten to sell off what you own and they'll come to terms with their obtuse failures.

Don't forget, when XIV v1 released in all its epic craptism, that one SE shareholder sold off over $1M of his stocks due to how disgusted he was.

The entire (or at least a huge significant number) of the original dev team was sent to the bread lines some time after that.

The strategy is that the wyrm takes double damage from blunt weapons and takes half damage from everything else. Monk with dragoon sub is revived :)

Must also wear a wyvern earring or the double damage from blunt won't proc.

god i love the mentality of the morons in the game. u see a wyrm and automatically assume drgs. as much as i would love to see content where drg kicks *** at, i dont see it happening. yeah ancient circle, dragon breaker, and dragon killer are nice but thats 1 drg if anything. instead of starting a new bandwagon because of speculation, mayb we should wait and see when the content actually comes out and develop real strats like intelligent people. trust me, id love to bust out my drg and show people how to use it but chances are its not going to be as great at next months ambuscade as we would like. keep in mind SE likes to mess with its player base by releasing images of content early or promise updates to ***jobs (lolmnks).

Assuming that will be an issue, just go nin main

Sadly SE does weird stuff with anything that cons ITG. Where several effectively don't count as their type at all in terms of things that care about family (ie trials wont work, circle effects and breaker effects wont work and can't be intimidated with the appropriate killer effect) and even the ones they don't go full on there is a reduction

Ancient Circle is actually really nice. But to get the most out of it, you need to cap it with job points. The -DT/Resist seem to be in their own category. So it actually exceeds the normal -50%DT Cap.

Also IIRC it lasts 4 minutes and has a 5 minute recast with Reforged AF+1/2/3
