It means the dev can't balance jackshit for them, it ruins any level of surprise too.

Final Fantasy 11 had no public test servers, everything was tested internally. What updated/changed was usually only said in patch notes the day the patch arrives. Japanese MMO devs don't announce detailed changes months prior like western MMO do.

My theory on how 4.0 BLM will play:

>With Enochian confirmed for being permanent now, I suspect Blizz 4 is now going to be changed to grant "Void" stacks, which can be cashed in on that big ass dark sphere attack seen in the benchmark for absolute throbbing big dick damage, especially when combined with the other new skill shown in the screenshots, which is a skill that makes BLM next skill hit like a motherfucker.
>>
>>377025981
They'll announce the combat revamp info next Monday.
>>
>>377025912
>This is a MMO
So? What's the point of doing the new fights if everyone already knows the mechanics weeks before it arrives. It ends up being shit when the challenge of figuring out the fight is gone.
>>
>>377025914
We literally know fucking nothing about it, how the fuck can you be already disappointed?
For all we know they could have the strongest potency skill.
>>
>>377026110
there's no challenge to the fights at all. You're still going to grind the same shit and be jewed by a new gear token that will be limited at 450 a week.
>>
>>377025981
No clue, but it's pretty obvious which ones are going to get dissected. Stupid shit like fracture, feint, keen flurry, etc., that nobody ever uses cause they're a waste of time and have little effect.

>Healing
Try to be in the back, not too far but not closer enough that you can be burst down by a BRD/MCH with just a tab.
If ranged target you, try to loose line of sight with them.
When actually healing, don't wait for someone to be damaged to heal them, it's not like PVE where overhealing is considered a sign of being a bad player, in PVP overhealing is the key to let someoen survive a burst.

>Dpsing
Fucking trow away all your shitty PVE rotation and learn a burst rotation.
Doing the most damage in the shortest amount of time is the key to kill anyone.
Like, seriously, don't care about clipping your GCD, just trowing fucking everything at someone and burst their ass down.

MNK is a meme, but Stormblood is coming up so they might be in a better spot. With how easily you can change roles, your first class doesn't really matter outside of affect your starting city and various flavor text. Once you reach 15 or so, you can pick up other classes.

Despite being a meme, MNK is actually not that far off from the other melees and is an easy class to raid with just because their rotation is unchanged from 50 to 60. In general, MNK is around 5-10% behind DRG/NIN.
>>
>>377026996
Best chance we have is if they move to LA, we aussies would get around 180 ping.
>>
>>377027797
It may as well be called a revamp because every class is getting adjustments more than just potency tweaks. Enochian is now permanent and the effect is changed to tie into the user interface changes every job is getting.

The problem is t hat, DRG boost the damage of MCH and BRD by 10% with their piercing debuff and buff the whole party damage with Battle Litany.
NIN boost the damage of tanks (if no WAR is here) with its slashing debuff and buff the whole party damage with trick attack.

MNK can't do that, sadly...

My friend who has played XIV for years but took a break 2 months ago was shocked to find out that Stormblood is coming out in a month.

Even with that, MNK is still 5-10% behind DRG/NIN. The % was assuming 1 ranged for DRG and TA. There's almost zero excuse for a MNK to not be a chunk ahead of DRG/NIN individually, except on maybe really irregular fights like A11s skipping all adds/lapis.

SAM is a melee caster like what BRD and MCH do.
>>
>>377030789
you used to cast thunder 3 because you could get both ticks back and the DoT would last almost the whole rotation, the added DoT potency and higher chance of a proc was worth it vs. skipping a blizzard.

Now it's almost always a DPS loss to even cast thunder unless it's a completely stationary fight, and it's almost always a DPS loss to cast procs.
>>
>>377030971
I disagree, since the theme of the Omega raids is gonna be the Dimensional Rift pretty much anything is on the table.

The kick was just Tornado Kick, a skill they already have. Normally using it requires you to spend GL3, so I guess the implication is that whatever ability he activated allowed him to use Tornado Kick for free.

Savage/Extreme content won't be available on release because Yoshi don't want people rushing the story to get first world clears and shit like that, they will probably be unlocked in a patch between 4.0 and 4.1. You have enough time max a bunch of crafters with moogle quests alone before SB is released, and then you can max stuff like ALC and CUL as the last ones in case you don't max all of them before early access.
Yoshi also is pretty adamant about making the specialist system more important, so expect specialist-exclusive recipes and bullshit gimmicks that will force you to focus on only 3 jobs.
>>
>>377031554
MNK is not big numbers at all, its the most sustained dps of all the melee, plus its very fast. I think the biggest number you ever see if forbidden chakra crits and thats just 320 potency.

lol it has a 30s cd it's up more often than procs

you'd only use one or the other when you'd normally have to skip a gcd due to movement anyways which doesn't happen very often, using "extra" gcds on firestarter procs is also higher potency than using them on thundercloud and doing both is a DPS loss, the only time a thundercloud proc is a good cast is the same time as thunder is a good cast, when you just went into umbral and you have enough time to cast proc - refresh

using aetherial wastes about the time of an ogcd and you can be more proactive and use sharpcast to force firestarter procs when you might be moving without messing up the number of fire4s you're outputting to waste the same amount of time

thunder is getting overhauled either way but they're going to have to buff it a lot or dramatically change how the class works to make it worth casting

Fell Cleave + 20% from Maim + 10% from Storm's Eye = 660 potency, but a WAR will typically only have 80% of the Attack Power of an equally geared MNK, so it's more or less equal to Forbidden Chakra. The difference being that WARs get to use Fell Cleave a lot more.

I really don't understand this hateboner for easier content. Why should one section of the playerbase who raids get prefferential treatment over the midcore/casuals?

I think a better way to handle it could be something like the Kirby games do with their slightly more difficult side-games; make it an alternate run through of the story from a new perspective, or something.

I respectfully disagree, I feel like that's the same line of thinking that turned World of Warcraft into the brain-dead easy game that it is today. I actually enjoy nuances of resource management. As far as QoL changes, Dark Arts would probably be a better candidate, imo. It just gets spammy at times.
>>
>>377032935

They actually don't.

WAR has comparatively lower heavy cds compared to PLD/DRK but consider the fact that Raw Intuition will almost always be paired with Berserk for triple cleave. In essence, WAR only has Vengeance/Holm. IB is obviously good if the WAR decides to be a dedicated MT but they lose a ton of potency by IBing over Fell Cleaving, more so than PLD/DRK.

So yes, while WAR can handle any situation well, they lose the most by having to do so. For Magic tankbusters, DRK pops their 1 minute 30% res cd and doesn't need to hold stacks. For Physical tankbusters, Sheltron is an incredible cd and more or less invalidates any solo phys hit in the game. WAR doesn't have that sort of cd and needs tankswaps with Vengeance/Holm to be in any way competitive with DRK/PLD in mitigation.

There's plenty of depth to it. If there wasn't, there wouldn't be such a large gap between shit DRKs who do 1k in dungeons and those that do 1.6k. Or raid prog where allocating Dark Arts is like the #1 concern of any DRK.

That's fair, scratch what I said about DRK and just make Sword Oath a self buff from riot blade then since that's actually a big buff and skill bloat reduction to the class.

>>377033702
DRK min/maxing comes from other aspects of the job. Darkside may be integral, but it's not the direct key to optimization because you establish early on that it's just something you want at all times when engaged.

>dies twice

>>377033721
MCH has a strict rotation and is mostly about aligning / optimizing cooldowns so you burst DPS as hard as possible

BRD has a priority-based rotation and is mostly about using skills in the correct order for max uptime so you bleed as little DPS as possible

They're fairly different
>>
>>377033721
Both jobs have burst phases centered around their cds.

Both jobs have downtime between these burst phases, which is where they start to differ. BRD is proc based and MCH is combo based.
>>
>>377033767
But that's the only reason they won't do it. Little Catgirl ERPer Sally wants to see the raid when it's fresh, can barely heal, and Yoshi-P and SE want her money.

Also raiding just feels like it's own different game in FF. It's not just something you can do for fun, it's rigorously scheduled, you have to keep up alot more with your gear, and that's just not how a lot of people (myself included) play. Guess that's just my problem, though.

Sure he meant "strict opener" for MCH and not strict rotation because MCH after the opener is really easygoing.
>>
>>377034080
>>377034270
What I actually meant was, their comparison in term of damage.

In the video, MCH get a very huge advance in damage because their incredible burst but in the end they basically end at the same time.

How come MCH is so much stronger than BRD in creator on fflogs then?

Either drop tanking and/or learn to appreciate the free time you get from staying dead and still getting the rewards (especially great if you roll +90 on the rare minion), or become one of them and reporting people for even the minor bullying.
Because apparently gittin gud and learning when to press the Accept button is not an option for you
>>
>>377034372
It wouldn't be so bad, except for the fact that even if you're at the normal accuracy cap, your attacks can still miss from the front, which is the only place you can hit Zurvan from in the last moments before he collapses the floor.

Anyone else have an irrational attraction to Lalafells?
>>
>>377034498
They do similar DPS over the course of a fight, but MCH does the most burst in the smallest period of time.

The reason you see such high DPS numbers on fflogs is because they're generally the party member being buffed by the AST and everyone else to get the fastest clear time.
>>
>>377034498
MCH is much more mobile and therefore loses less damage due to mechanics. Look at the cast bars in the video.

>>377034738

>>377034350

Why does it need to be comparable? In the first place a FoF 540 potency on all adds in a cleave is already nearly as good as Berserk'd double Decimates without needing as much prep as WAR. DRK needs 5-6 AD/Unleash to beat it, on top of requiring resources to do so.
>>
>>377034498
MCH has almost no downtime because it has lots of tools that allow it to execute its rotation flawlessly while moving. BRD on the other hand is cucked by Wanderer's Minuet and can hardly do shit while moving.
>>
>>377034498
>How come MCH is so much stronger than BRD in creator on fflogs then?
Because MCH is overpowered as shit and has much better mobility than BRD. They also benefit the most from their hypercharge due to the nature of Wildfire, even if BRD benefits too in an 8-man encounter.

Plus 9s speed kills are skewed because MCH gets to hog all the adds instead of a SMN.

>>377034498

You mean like overall on fflogs? BRD is actually slightly stronger than MCH on a dummy and you should look at like the top 300 or so (maybe not the solo balance parses) for the fights pre-echo. As for why there's such a discrepancy, MCH benefits more from the phase pushes in Creator in general due to their heavy burst setups. BRD beats MCH on a dummy but the dps is equalized when groups make use of group cd stacking. Since BRD is """"non-meta"""", they probably get used more in suboptimal groups. Alot of them are also bad.
>>

Eh? CoS pack 1, Fast blade one enemy of pack 2, spirits within another enemy, riot blade the last one, goring blade the pack.

A WAR won't even make use of more than 1 decimate in a good group even if they pop Vengeance/Raw/Berserk since they still need to complete one-combo to get two stacks and they don't have any off-gcds. DRK is better off but considering they're the king of dungeon tanking, its not really worth comparing.

And if its a large pull like Baelsar's wall, just flash the 1st group, CoS the 2nd, Fast blade/riot on the dog, flash the last group, goring blade everything when you run back to the archers. Cover the healer and HG.
>>
>>377035712
BRD is meta for those reasons but i guess that anon considers them to be a facade because they coat tail more than they contribute, which is still more than any of the remaining DPS classes.
>>
>>377035863
PLD will be if what were seeing happens. A potential spammable Holy minus stun, and circle blade which could be a cooldown or a spammable on the move replacement for Flash at high levels. Or Yoshi could go full madman and just remove Flash since it actually doesnt make sense for a GLA to have Flash when they should have circle blade.
>>
>>377035953

That must be like winning a lottery, WAR usually despise being MT when im there.

So what do you run then? MNK BLM or SMN? Unless you're suggesting the group doublestacks.
>>
>>377036708
That's pretty commonly accepted. The game's content design necessitates that anything can be cleared by any combination of classes as long as they meet the role ratio, so none of the classes are capable of doing anything especially unique, they just press buttons in slightly different orders.
>>
>>377036773
They have been homogenized since 2.0 day one.
>>
>>377036715

BRD/MCH stomp any other dps in the game so hard it's not even funny. Idk why you're trying to make BRD seem like a third wheel when literally the only reason they aren't overused is because a even more ridiculous class (MCH) exists.

Not really, I play almost every jobs and the play totally differently from each others.

If you're the anon that hasn't played for 3 years, they changed the metrics for spirit binding where enemies within the level range of the gear bind it fastest, but eventually if the enemies are too low level or too high, you gain nothing now for spiritbonding.

It's only worth it for T1 & T2 these days, since airships have trivialized the market by bringing in stuff like 30+ T3 & T4 materia every day, with FCs able to have up to 4-5 airships at any moment.

So far, Nael, Solus, and Varis have been the only truly evil Imperials. Yoshi hates that the Imperials are sympathetic, but the scenario writers clearly do not. Gaius is easily one of the greatest characters in the story, and would be a hero in any other situation. He even fought to stop Dalamud back in 1.0, and was sitting in Ala Mhigo for 20 years trying to find peaceful methods of conquest like he did for Ala Mhigo rather than senselessly killing Eorzeans or throwing his men to be slaughtered by primals.

>He still ended up dealing with Ascians
Yeah, he got desperate when Solus got sick and wanted to use his conquest of Eorzea as a bid for the throne to keep it out of the hands of anyone else crazier than Solus.
>supported the genocide of the beast races
Technically, yes. Because he saw it as the necessary solution. But he also got pretty fucking mad at the inaction of the Eorzean city-states and insisted that they could have put a fucking leash on the primals themselves if they had gotten off their lazy asses.

They are different worlds as far as we know. It's implied that the WoD's names and races are assumed to better let them blend into Eorzea. They already said they gave up their lives and physical bodies to travel between worldss, and if they are using the same means as the ascians then they are probably possessing the bodies of dead eorzeans.

The Void is one of those shards, so they don't each have their own Void. The one Void does bleed into other shards, though. Geographically, they'd probably have a continent very similar to Eorzea, but without the same Calamities going on to shape it, it would be slightly different. And culturally, it would be completely different.

But you need to give up your body to move between worlds.

Or, do you? The Crystal Tower and Mhach stories show that you can move between worlds if you open a portal. Maybe that's just for the void.

Also, the void has been a thing on Hydaelyn/Eorzea for thousands of years. Unukalhai couldn't possibly still be alive if he was in his original form, at least, not as the child he appears as.

CoD apparently is from a "voider" void (FF's Void dimension featured in other games, a "non-material realm" in XIV), while Diabolos and the others are corrupted people from one of the Hydaelen's shards/worlds that got consumed by the darkness (XIV's Void world).

They do that pretty often. It was a point in 1.0 that you could tell who was an Ascian because they had no shadows. That's even what their fucking name means, and the average person believes that Ascians are wizards that ate their own shadows for more power. But ever since ARR, they have shadows.

I'm all for not spoiling myself on content when it comes to 14, and I always look forward to the new stuff.

However from a gameplay perspective, they should really tell us what all the new abilities are ahead of time so people can decide accordingly on what class they want to play primarily when the expansion releases. How many people do you think dropped BRD because they hated the added cast times? That completely changes the feel of the gameplay when you go from mobile ranged dps to a caster that does physical damage.

The HW ability preview to my knowledge didn't even give ability tooltips, they just showed the animations off. Yeah, you could take a guess at what some of them do like the WAR charge, MCH flamethrower and AST cards, but you don't get the necessary details the developers should be communicating with the playerbase for with such important decisions.

I used to main WAR for years and switched to DRK in 3.2 because its much more fun and DRK is an extremely strong job IF and only IF played well.

Its just not fun to operate on the same rotation constantly and needing to adjust your baby tier rotation for every single fight. The only fun I have with WAR is when I do an unchained opener, get a massive equilibrium crit, listen to my healers orgasm over voice at how they dont need to heal anything for an entire minute while me and my tank coordinate our CDs to do the most DPS while generating the most hate. Once I start OTing though you just feel like a baby tier melee DPS with a one trick pony rotation.

oh and DRK completely shits on WAR in dungeons.

Both combined would be cool. Trances are a really cool concept, and it would have been great to design the job around it. Have the primals appear for a second during enkindle attacks like deathflare and it would be good.

We'll never ever get that, though. Especially now that they finally got egi-glamours in.
What would be kinda nice would be some kind of mechanic that encourages SMNs to cycle through their egis so playing a SMN is actually about summoning rather than having garuda out all the time.

PLD does this yes but theres no argument for PLD being fun in anything, and there never has.

As for the dungeons, I was reffering to the fun factor more so than beating dungeons faster. In terms of speed kills DRK and WAR are on the same level. DRK's ability to sprint and spam aoe without care is what puts DRK above WAR for me in the fun factor. For WAR you just walk to your trash, pop your vengeance + bloodbath with berserk and maim up and spam overpower but overpower has limited uses and the vengeance/blood bath combo doesnt last forever, unlike DRK. You find yourself waiting for your CDs as a WAR to line up again so you can go back into god mode but thats dumb when you can just be in god mode all of the time.

I don't think that "World of Darkness" dungeon is a region located in the shard that got consumed by the darkness, because we can directly travel to that place with a "simple" portal, same for the Interdimensional Rift in 4.0. It is just a "void" in a non-physical dimension (since it is usually described that voidsents are "trying to invade the physical ream", either with summoning rituals or using the dead body of people and other creatures).

It's not a simple portal, though. It was built on top of a power plant with enough energy to fuel an entire empire alone. Portals to and from the Thirteenth shard show up all the time elsewhere. They even occur naturally and allow smaller Voidsent like bombs and imps through. And regions like Mor Dhona have tears in the fabric of reality so thick that the atmosphere of the Void seeps through (the Gloom weather). The game and the lore book both make it pretty clear that the World of Darkness, the Void, and the Thirteenth shard are all different names for the same place.

>You find yourself waiting for your CDs as a WAR to line up again so you can go back into god mode but thats dumb when you can just be in god mode all of the time.
I'm god mode on every pack because I don't burn everything on the first one. You don't need Vengeance when you have Deliverance+Berserk+Bloodbath. In the very rare occasion that there's more than one pack that does noticeable damage between bosses, Unchained+Vengeance means that you're doing the same DPS as a DRK while taking way less damage, even if there's no self healing. TP is irrelevant in any half decent group. Any pull that WAR can run low on TP on is a pull where DRK will have several GCDs where they have to do normal combos because you can't spam aoe 100% of the time outside of Blood Price.
>>
>>377043976
The Void magic in FF5 was hidden inside the Rift, yeah. But when FF fans are talking about "the Void", as in what Gilgamesh uses to travel between worlds, and where Dissidia takes place, they're usually actually talking about the Rift. They've kinda become synonyms in the community.

DRK can self heal as effectively as WAR without needing a cd. DRK can also pop the a Wall for 1 pull, Skin for the next, for overall more mitigation.

>TP is irrelevant in any half decent group

Not when a SMN/healer/SSbrd have reached the 2nd pack and twiddle their thumbs while you're still trudging along because you can't sprint.

Except for when you need to use heavy swing-maim to get your start up going, where I can just immediately spam on DRK. WAR feels very rigid in terms of its combos and its not flexible like DRK is.

>I'm god mode on every pack because I don't burn everything on the first one.

Except for the fact that your only real CD in dungeons is vengeance since thrill doesnt do shit and conva on you as the same as DRK. So you dont actually have a whole lot in terms of utility. And if you're going to argue about being in a competant group than this makes DRK excel because a DRK can just spam sprint and clear trash extremely fast while the rest of your party has to wait on you if you're a WAR.

You should seriously get off your high horse for a second and consider what makes other jobs so attractive.
