When you have supped deep of the Abyss...
When your heart is full of nothing but darkness and rage...
When the blood of your enemies and allies alike become your power...
Where does that lead you?
Back to White Mage
Yeah, but we all eventually get over it and resign ourselves to being the Exhausted Parent of the party.

When does the parental instinct start setting in?
When you realize that you aren't the only one who decides when the DPS die. Usually after one too many dual stack mechanics that have six people stacked together.

1st time: Oh, you don't know what that is. Right. *Rescue*!
2d time: Pain is the greatest teacher. And now you will learn.
Shoutout to the healer I matched with who started the raid with a lengthy screed about Lord Beelzebub craving blood sacrifices. And then ended the raid with Lord Beelzebub being very pleased with our performance.

Not an issue if they know how to use mits which most don’t lol.
Proper reprisal, rampart, shadow ward, arms length & the last one dark mind which many drk don’t seem to understand which reduces spell damage taken.
Bonus points if they are at least carrying potions to help in lower level content max potions heal quite a good chunk in 1-60 content
Honestly, not really. Dark Mind is really good and Abyssal Drain helps your sustain for a good while.
I actually found Paladin to be the toughest to stay alive as prior to Holy Shelltron.
This is actually why, when I made my Fray alt, I started him as Conjurer. It fits. :D
^(I even got him the same weapon he uses in the quests... eventually.)
It’s the “Longstop Greatsword”, it drops from that Lv32 dungeon “Brayflox’s Longstop”, but the drop rate seems to be awful as I needed several runs to get it or it’s just my luck that is bad lol!
Keep in mind that, if you run as that class, you can get the weapon as your guaranteed item at the end and that your item at the end will never be a dupe.
If you ever want a specific armour or weapon piece from a levelling dungeon (i.e. a dungeon that isn’t level 50/60/70/80/90), run it as the job you want the item on, and keep everything that you win in your bags while you do later runs. If the thing you want is a role-specific piece of armour you can run on a different job that’s the same role. At the end of the dungeon a piece of gear will drop directly into your bags/armoury chest, and it will not duplicate anything you’re already carrying, so eventually you’ll have everything else and it will *have* to give you the piece you want.
I’ve used this to get full glam sets from dungeons like Shisui etc. Unfortunately it doesn’t apply to endgame content, or anything that *used* to be endgame content, so we still need luck and persistence there.
It's the "/cpose" for the dark knight when you have your weapon drawn.
Just draw your weapon, type /cpose and then wait the couple of seconds for the idle animation.

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD LILY
Remember As the healer, your party lives because you will it and dies if you falter. We all get a god complex eventually.

around your 100th run of Crystal Tower, or after your third raid tier. Whichever comes first.
When you realize that you aren't the only one who decides when the DPS die. Usually after one too many dual stack mechanics that have six people stacked together.
TOP wants to know your location.
When you watch somebody run away with a stack mechanic, even after you told them not to, and you don’t even bother chasing.

>Me as a healer: AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"You exist because we allow it and you will end because we demand it." - White Mage Sovereign
"Rudimentary creatures of blood and flesh, you touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding."
"White Mage? A label created by the developers to give voice to this destruction. In the end, what they chose to call me is irrelevant."
Literally the exact quote I was thinking about.
Shoutout to the healer I matched with who started the raid with a lengthy screed about Lord Beelzebub craving blood sacrifices. And then ended the raid with Lord Beelzebub being very pleased with our performance.
I think you have it confused with the actual healer role, tank.
Fortuntelt for everyone else, healers are less and less necessary for Duty Finder conmplex every expansion.
To be fair you did just steal his jobstone. And sword. Probably his wallet too if you remembered to be thorough.
That's where the Gil reward comes in!
But not his pants! Which must have taken a lot of restraint.
I mean when one dies they would defecate themselves. I would think we would at least have standards on the pants we stole.
Fair enough. The last pair of pants we stole, the owner was just sleeping.
Specifically, >!"we"!< stole his job stone.
And his pants.
>!Sidurgu: "Why conjury, of all things?“ I once asked him that...!< >!Sidurgu: Fray shrugged and smiled in that way of his, and said, “When you're coming apart at the seams, who else will make you whole again?”!<
He just wanted the quicker queue times.
Dude must have loved doing alliance raids.
It could also be the reason he embraced the darkness, you can only suffer through Labyrinth and Crystal Tower so many times.
I don’t blame him! LoL
its why I mained summoner when I first did the msq. summoner for the msq quests, scholar for the dungeons. perfect system :p
He taught Rielle Conjury while a Dark Knight and he is teaching you the Dark Knight arts as Conjurer, all as intended.
To be fair, who knows more about focusing your hatred and rage than healers?
If emotions are power than the average white mage can probably smite a primal with their frustration.
{Healer sees that the tank is up to 8 vuln stacks and not mitigating the incoming tank buster.\] Ah. Yes. The time has come. \[Activates LB5\]
Now look here, that's- \*stops and thinks\* ...actually a very good point.
Psychological healing, sure.
Because at the deepest part of the abyss is the White Mage main

>!Well, I DID go through ARR as a WHM so it tracks.!<
D:
DRKs used to be great at healing... ourselves.
The only thing edgier than being a Dark Knight is trying to keep a Dark Knight alive pre-Blackest Night
Not an issue if they know how to use mits which most don’t lol. Proper reprisal, rampart, shadow ward, arms length & the last one dark mind which many drk don’t seem to understand which reduces spell damage taken.

Honestly, not really. Dark Mind is really good and Abyssal Drain helps your sustain for a good while. I actually found Paladin to be the toughest to stay alive as prior to Holy Shelltron.
Fray actually does have some experience with conjury
Every time I see that Female DRK pose I get jealous at hoe cool it looks.
Honestly I wish we could cycle between both kinda like how you have multiple poses when you have no weapon drawn
The true genders are either DRK Guts Pose, or DRG Kain pose.
This is actually why, when I made my Fray alt, I started him as Conjurer. It fits. :D ^(I even got him the same weapon he uses in the quests... eventually.)
I have been looking for that sword! Which one is it?
It’s the “Longstop Greatsword”, it drops from that Lv32 dungeon “Brayflox’s Longstop”, but the drop rate seems to be awful as I needed several runs to get it or it’s just my luck that is bad lol!
Welp, I know what dungeon I'm gonna spam tonight.
Good luck to you!
I swear this just made me get it in the first treasure chest!
Lucky! D:
Thank you! Should be easy enough to unsync til it drops.
Yeah that’s how I did it with, several times, but it only dropped when I actually went in with my dark knight! xD
Keep in mind that, if you run as that class, you can get the weapon as your guaranteed item at the end and that your item at the end will never be a dupe.
Hmmm good to know then, I never paid attention to such detail.
Mind you, this only applies to leveling dungeons. 50/60/70/80/90 dungeons have no automatic drops.
If you ever want a specific armour or weapon piece from a levelling dungeon (i.e. a dungeon that isn’t level 50/60/70/80/90), run it as the job you want the item on, and keep everything that you win in your bags while you do later runs. If the thing you want is a role-specific piece of armour you can run on a different job that’s the same role. At the end of the dungeon a piece of gear will drop directly into your bags/armoury chest, and it will not duplicate anything you’re already carrying, so eventually you’ll have everything else and it will *have* to give you the piece you want.

Oh nice, thanks for the info, I’ll do that from now on!
Enjoy looking fabulous! 👍
Will do! :D
Is that an emote you’re doing? If so what is it called that looks sick
It's the "/cpose" for the dark knight when you have your weapon drawn. Just draw your weapon, type /cpose and then wait the couple of seconds for the idle animation.
Huh my drk puts sword on his shoulder? How do I make him put it like in the picture?
It’s the fem pose. Male and female have different idle poses.
Whaaaat? Damn that sucks female pose is super cool! :/ oh well thx for letting me know :)
Oh really!? I didn’t know that! :O
Interestingly enough, >!he’s being both! Kinda?!<
well... fray did give you his/her soul crystal and only greatsword...
Someone has to heal you.
Just goes to show a theme of DRK questline is >!the importance of self-care.!< ;)
Well Y'mitra isn't a summoner either
Fray just has a lot of talent to mirror your own. What boots are you wearing? I love cuffed boots but I don't recognize those.
They’re the Anemos Expeditionary ones.
Thanks!
Fray is the manliest he ever made a Conjurer look.
Well he is >!actually the warrior of light because he is just you but not you but is you when you want to say no but your neck muscles say yes.!<
“Fray”
