  • It took me a while to finish but it's finally done.
    This is a video guide for players, new or seasoned, who are looking to get into the Rune Fencer (RUN) job in Final Fantasy XI. This is my first time making a video of this sort, let alone of this scale, so if I make another one of these I'll do better having learned from experience.
    I hope you get something out of it and if there's any suggestions for improvement be sure to let me know in the comments below.

    I may not play final fantasy 11 anymore but I do enjoy these videos explaining classes I could play as that werent available on the ps2 or xbox versions back several years ago.
    To further delve, I play final fantasy 14 now

    I opened RUN on my galka mule a few months ago and have slowly started gearing for it, although I'm not familiar with tanking at all. This guide gives a great overview of what RUN can do and I'm sorry you're on a different server because I would love to watch you in action! SO happy to find your channel I'll be giving the GEO video a look as well.

      I'm glad it's been of use.
      I've always been a better writer than I have been a speaker so making this video was a bit nervy for me. I'll probably get better at videos of this sort in due course though.
      I actually need to extend it a bit come to think of it.

    I watched this video and the RUN DPS video multiple times when I came back to the game a little over 2 years ago. Really helped me understand the job. Still trying to get a feel for when the hybrid tanking part of the job is best utilized. Would like to see an updated video with some equip sets like some of your more recent videos.

    I'm trying to be a good tank. Obviously peeps in my LS are better geared and I cant hold hate. Itd be nice if gear wasn't as specialized but I'm a FF14 player returning to FF11 as a Rune Fencer. I need time and practice but selfishly I want gearing to faster. Thanks for the guide!! It really does help.

      I've got a few PUP videos on the channel and a PUP guide is in the works, I need to finish off the second part to this RUN guide (DPS side of the job) before I get onto that.
      I think I'm going to need some input from the other PUP I know on Asura before I begin putting a structure together. Still, watch this space!

    Hey I have just come back to FFXI as I wanted to give RUN a good go. I am a little overwhelmed as its a lot more in depth than most jobs are. However I have come across your guides written and video and they are awesome. Thank you so much! However I do have a question if subbing BLU what spells would you take? I can guess on using cocoon and some self healing ones but I don't want to pick the wrong ones.

    • @SplitFinn
      @SplitFinn  Před 6 lety

      Cocoon / Blank Gaze / Jettatura / Healing Breeze / Wild Carrot
      Rest can honestly be filled for Killer Traits or HP.

    I'm still new with RUN, I don't quite have the ultimate weapon yet, i'm using GS from Oboro currently, fully augmented. I'm having issues maintaining hate though. My group has a thf in it, the moment he WS, I loose hate and can't seem to get back from him. Is there a way I can generate hate enough that it won't turn to him at all? We are all fairly new, but he already is getting his damage up to 25-30k.

    great vid. one question though, does everyone have capped parrying skill now? or is it still difficult?

    • @SplitFinn
      @SplitFinn  Před 7 lety +1

      Parrying skill is very easy to cap these days, for RUN especially.
      Put on some Inquartata +% equipment, like the Ogma's Cape and the Erilaz Leg Guards, go into a PDT set, eat some skill-up bonus food and go pull a bunch of monsters and 'funnel' them like I did in this video.
      Odds are you'll cap the parrying skill within 20-30 minutes.

  • @pacobird
    @pacobird Před 7 lety

    How much of a priority do you feel a 5-hit build is for RUN? I would think a tank would be getting substantial TP just from taking hits, no?

    • @SplitFinn
      @SplitFinn  Před 7 lety

      I'll be addressing this in the follow-up video to this guide, due sometime next week (keep an eye out for it!).
      But, to answer right now. A 5-hit is actually not very hard to get, you need around +70 Store TP to achieve it. Generally speaking, this is what you want to aim for in a 5-hit build.
      Accuracy - 1150~1250Attack - 1150~1200Store TP - 70 (5-Hit)Double Attack - 25%Triple Attack - 13%
      Getting hit, and getting Tactical Parry TP procs isn't enough to generate enough TP to competently DPS; you need to have a proper TP gain set to make it worthwhile. The thing is, Resolution and Dimidiation both benefit massively from 'TP Overflow'; or that they get very powerful when you break 2000% or so TP before you use them. You'll notice in my RUN DPS videos (Kin, Kyou especially) that I hold TP rather than fire at 1000%.
      I'll go into this more when the video comes out next week!

    • @SplitFinn
      @SplitFinn  Před 6 lety

      16:30 is Western Adoulin, near the zoneline to Eastern Adoulin.
      The idle area is Eastern Adoulin right next to Octavien, the NPC who begins the RUN quest.

    You don't go into much detail about vallation merits. The FFXI AH run guide recommends 5/5 pflug, 5/5 vallation. What are your throughts on Vallation merits Vs Rune enhancement merits. Pros/Cons?

    • @SplitFinn
      @SplitFinn  Před 7 lety

      Apologies for that, there was additional dialogue for that section but I had to trim it to save 5-6 minutes on the video's duration.
      As I said in the guide, you really can't go wrong with Group One options as long as you stay away from Lunge/Gambit. The AH guide does indeed say that but that's just one way of going about it.
      Rune Enchantment merits are mandatory as far as I see it. Increased resistance values from runes equates to more magic evasion, and especially after the Vex/Attunement nerf this option has shifted from 'highly advised' to 'mandatory'. I'm extremely fond of 5/5 Pflug because, coupled with Rune Enchantment 5/5 and some 'Resist-All' gear I use I'm practically immune to ailments which would otherwise end tanks.
      Vallation is an option certainly, but I've never been fond of it. Vallation would only really shine if you were covering multiple elements, thus 15% becomes 20%. Stacking x3 runes of the same and with 5/5 Vallation you're looking at -60% MDT, which is already a diminished effect since you've gone beyond the 50% reduction in gear (it counts towards it but goes over cap).
      In summation, the majority of things that can either make a fight frustrating or outright kill you are not heavy amounts of magic damage but rather status ailments like Doom or Charm. 5/5 Vallation does nothing for blunting those ailments whereas 5/5 Rune Enchantment and 5/5 Pflug will do wonders for blocking them.
