Literally no reason to bring a mnk now. It's just a job with shitty party buffs and high damage. Nin/drg will still be the optimal melee dps while Sam will even be more worthwhile to fights than a mnk. Cucked out of their own expansion! You can't make this shit up!

So, how's drg? Is he just a Battle Litany bitch now? He used to deal decent dps, but now a fucking nin got and a sam do much more dps. And what did drg get? Easier BotD and small potency buffs. Is it even worth to get him for tryhard static.

Now, I feel we're jumping the gun here. Not having to swap to Cleric Stance and lock yourself out of healing for a period mixed with good ol Plenary here means WHM is more free to exercise their DPS rights. And then you've got Lillies to make Assize come back faster, and Thin Air making the occasional Holy spam-fest totally free.

WHM has always had extremely strong DPS, they've just had trouble finding the opportunity to use it - with proper usage of Confession stacks to basically get a free GCD every now and again, WHM may be the patrician's choice.

Why is MCH getting even harder to play for no real benefit? Setting up perfect ammo rotations to flow with the cooldowns for reload/quick reload, maxing when to use reassemble with regards to keeping it on cooldown as often as possible, maxing out wildfire usage, and now a balancing act with the heat mechanics to peak your dps without hitting overheat or getting it too low and losing potency.

I'll stick with BRD for an easier kit and better results

I actually haven't played WHM since 1st Coil, I'm just thinking of how it will actually pan out. AST got some interesting stuff, but their utility stays pretty much the same. SCH got the enemy-based Battle Littany and Bane got fucked, but it got a set and forget Lustrate, so it's a little more useful than before DPS wise.

But WHM has some fairly strong off cooldown heals now, and no need to stance dance at all, you could probably get by just full DPS and using only oGCDs to heal most the time.

>>378644943
I seriously can't believe how hard they fucked WHM. The changes legitimately make it worse than it is now since so many of their abilities were pilfered for cross-role that they can't even take all the ones they used to have, and their new abilities are not only completely reliant on RNG but also weak as fuck compared to what SCH and AST get.
>>
>>378645069
As long as it has more heal CDs that don't use MP I would be pretty happy with it. Means more useful heals without worrying about MP so much which is my main gripe with WHM now.

>ammo "management"
You're overthinking ammo.
You simply pop Reload for your 123 when your Hot Shot/Lead Shot don't need to be reapplied in the next 15 seconds.
Use Quick Reload whenever it comes off cooldown, except for when you need to reapply Hot/Lead.
Use Reassemble with a Clean Shot proc.

Your oGCD usage is basically set in stone, there's no real management here.
>>
>>378645115
The job action video still shows it as consuming all stacks of GL. I guess they reduced it to 10s because you'd have to be retarded to use it on cooldown anyway, even at 40s.

The entire transition was just completely bad and there's no good way to put it. Once underwater, it wasn't too exciting. Square Enix has promised there's more to see in Stormblood proper, but being met with loading screens like this just makes us ask how World of Warcraft managed it in 2004, but Final Fantasy can't in 2017."

I knew it. They're turning Red Mage and Summoner into the same fucking job

so it seems we got

Samurai and Ninja = same job
Monk and Dragoon = same job
Machinist and Bard = same job
Red Mage and Summoner = same job

AND NOW...

Dark Knight, Warrior, and Paladin = same job

sure is same-y in here

Nope, MMO genre destroyed by this expansion. It's done. Throw it in the garbage. This game is finished.

Yoshi P is a literal hack

Is it worth continuing levelling with the upcoming changes or do I roll BRD instead?

So pretty much every main rotation weaponskill has its potency nerfed by 10 (removing a whole tick of Demolish), and Touch of Death is taken away, also Dragon Kick no longer provides utility of ANY sort to anyone else but a monk stacked party, Forbidden Chakra nerfed by 20%...

And the buffs are 5% on Twin Snakes, a 30% chance to get a chakra on weaponskill crit (not oGCDs), and a once in a while kind of crappy group buff that lets you get some more Chakra. Oh and Riddle of Fire.

I kinda feel like they legitimately hate Monks

Akh Morn is based on a separate "Enkindle Bahamut" ability with a 13 second recast. You can use it twice every time you summon him. Learn to fucking read.
>>
>>378645850
So just take AST for raids and WHM for dungeons. You should be leveling all healers to 70 asap if you main one of them. And don't tell me you don't already have all of them at 60.

I was at the media tour. Before people get started on Samurai not having any raid utility, YoshiP stated there that the purpose of Samurai is synergy with all Jobs and to "carry" raid damage. According to him, the issues Monks currently face will not be present in Stormblood at all due to how fights are now designed. White Mages though, I'm so sorry, but every single White Mage main changed Jobs pretty quickly and gave tons of negative feedback to the changes. I think the majority of them had settled on Astrologian by the end of the day. Samurai was a big hit, Red Mage was well received but not completely. Machinist had bad feedback while Bard had a lot of positive responses. Black Mages liked their changes, while Summoners aren't too happy from what I saw.

Monk is dumpster tier, however. One of the guys next to me was a Monk main with Savage raids under his belt, and he just fucking hated it. The rotation is clunky to him and everything played poorly. He asked the SE rep if he could get some skillspeed gear to play around with stats and he was told no. Whatever the default set up was for gear just flat out made playing Monk awful. On the flip side, Dragoons and Ninjas are amazing. I thought Goad going cross-class would be bad, but no way. Ninja got so much to make up for it and they do absurd damage on top of it. Blood of the Dragon upkeep is 100% easier now and all the new Dragoon skills feel great. I just have no idea what the fuck they were thinking with Monk. They didn't fix it, they destroyed it.

So if I remember right I'll generally run about a 25% crit rate, maybe as low as 20% sometimes on Monk. As a strict thought formula of potency per second, Twin Snakes' buff makes up for most the 10s lost everywhere, making them more like a 1% loss overall probably. The tick on Demolish sucks but may sync up with a 'once every 3 rounds' now that there's no ToD or Fracture to consider, but it's still a like 35 potency loss.

Let's be generous to Riddle of Fire and just call it a wash with B4B.

So given Bootshine's guaranteed crit state, let's just say 1 in 4 attacks gives a chakra, so every 20 GCDs generally (60s) we'll have a free 250 potency attack. And every 90s we have 15s of other nearby melee players having a 30% to grace us with a Chakra, so assuming 2 tanks and another melee, let's just call it a chakra per GCD, 5 GCDs and some change, we'll get another free 250 potency every 90 seconds. So across 3 minutes, 5 Forbidden Chakras. 1250 potency, or an additional 415 or so extra potency a minute.

Overall this is probably a gain on our potency per minute that we have now, but it certainly does not feel like a buff.

You could keep enochian up permanently before though if you weren't stupid. If you kept switching and using your blizzard 4 as you should you'd eventually get to the point where enochian was off cooldown and you never lost it. SO all that really happened was minus dmg on the new core rotation of blizzards, a useless buff on flare, nerfing dots to make them literally never viable. Since casting them will mean not casting fire 4 so its just a waste of time.

Only thing good is 3 sec return to leylines and thats it.

Anon,

stop dreaming.

It says STUN NULLIFYING EFFECTS, so if the boss pops a debuff that makes it immune to stun you can still stun it, and it might be immune to the 'debuff resistance' bosses build up as you use debuffs

but bosses that are naturally immune to stun will still be immune to stun

you do not understand game design

>>378647093
Oh, good point I didn't read that very closely. So yeah more of a blanket 5% nerf on all damage in exchange for 415 extra potency per minute, and that's being optimistic.

You could try and speed up your weaponskills by focusing on skill speed, but then you'd have to probably spend some of your chakra on TP, nullifying any point and once again shutting down any concept of gear variance in the game.

Boy this is fuckin depressing. I really like Monk. Good thing I already decided to roll Paladin to fill a niche in my group, this would be way more of a downer if I had actually resolved to stick with fisting.

>>378647217
As was pointed out above, I was wrong and Twin Snakes didn't get any buff, so it's certainly a blanket nerf probably barely balanced out by the extra potency Forbidden Chakra will overall add over the fight, and that's only optimally playing with an 8man group with another melee.

Paladin may be more of a progression tank that gets phased out as groups get better geared in tiers. The stuff it got is great and really solidifies it as a fine pick, but it's clearly more focused on surviving, even as an OT.

Though you could just stick with a Paladin and say the extra defense capability you're packing is just letting the healers pick up any slack slotting a WAR/DRK over them in would get you.

But yeah, it seems like outside of minmaxing, all 3 tanks are probably good for all groups.

It seems like in general they're trying to reduce the frequency of a boss building up resistance to interrupts, and making more people have interrupts in general - they may be more of a thing going forward.

Monk being a super fucking why exception with Shoulder Tackle - look now we can use it twice if we want and make the boss immune to stun so we can extra special be the only ones able to stun with our cool One Ilm Punch that will fucking RUIN our DPS by having to hang out in that stance when we know a stunnable attack is coming up.
>>
So wait, let me get this straight. Now that MCHs has to juggle a heat gauge, your GCDs get powered up when your heat gauge reaches 50% and beyond. While reaching 100% heat your abilities take a nosedive you can still manage it by spamming the cooldown ability. Does that mean you can virtually be between 50 to 99% heat without having to stance dance at all?

There's literally not a single job that I liked and didn't get fucked in some way.

Without Cleric Stance, all healers are dead to me. Those dumb bars, tank DPS nerfs and homogenization makes me want to drop PLD and WAR. Meanwhile, every DPS is losing shit that I liked in some way or another.

I might have to play a fucking RDM like everybody else because being new means that I won't be missing anything from it.

I've been playing BLM since 1.21 so I doubt that'll change. It'll depend on how much I enjoy RDM and how much I like/dislike the BLM changes. It's not looking that good right now but I'm pretty pessimistic about this game overall.

Sword Oath still only buffs autos, and they got a TP dumper aoe attack, so they're still noticeably weaker than the other two at AOE. Holy Spirit is great and will be useable at a pretty high frequency due to Shelltron giving MP back, but I'm pretty sure overall they're still going to be the weakest of the 3 DPS wise, though by a narrow margin for single target.

Scholar changes are...interesting i guess.

The thing where you put a mark on somebody that heals when they go under half is something that would make much more sense with the 'Stance' version of Cleric stance - meaning you dont have to switch out of Cleric to top them off. As it stands, why wouldn't you just Lustrate? I guess it's pretty much a Aetherflow dump if you haven't spent stacks as Aetherflow comes off CD?

The fairy tether doesn't make a huge amount of sense to me either. It doesn't mesh with a scholars kit at all really. The healing in this game is so bursty that limiting your fairy to one target is more than likely just going to be dumping overhealing into it.

Obviously the crit buff is nice.

I'm trying to think of what's on my bars that we're losing/changing. Cleric stance is becoming a buff, bane got nerfed HARD, stoneskin is gone too (not a huge loss)

Is that it though? I know we gain the Healing Buff button - but we already had a heal boost on Eos. Are they stacking?

The worst of DRK is that it only use one combo in an optimal case (No Powerslashing).
Bloodspiller/Quietus will be that psuedo fracture replacement rotation wise, and there's more struggling to weave DA in.

The good of DRK is that Darkside doesn't drain MP and doesn't turn off when you run out of MP. There's still a some decent of oGCD weaving to do but not as much because of cross-role abilities. The hardest part is to manage two meters, but there's less penalty for fucking up them.

No I meant like spamming the cooldown ability before 100%. Let's say you're at 50% heat and each shot increases it by like 25. Let's assume your shit procs and it would go something like this: Split Shot > Slug Shot > Cooldown/Reassemble > Clean shot. So that would be 50 > 75 > 50 > 75. I might be fucking retarded though, as I haven't really seen how much a single shot increases the heat gauge.

Riddle of Fire is still a DPS increase even with the speed reduction. It's meant to serve as MNK's replacement for Blood for Blood but just makes them feel crappy by slowing them down.

Riddle of Wind already exists as the bonus effect of Shoulder Tackle when in Fists of Wind.
>>
>>378648649
>Riddle of wind is already there

It's not.

Shoulder Tackle now just changes ability based n what 'Fists stance you are in

but there is no 'Riddle' equivilant for Wind.

They're saving it for next expansion.

Watch Riddle of Wind be something like 'Allows you to build GL4' and thats the only effect, so the rotation becomes going into Wind to get GL4 then immediately switching to Fire because -30% skillspeed on your GL4 skillspeed buff is good game design

It's still incredibly useless outside of a mob with a long cast ability or the odd stunable enemy in raids. Even then, why would you trade off the essential damage buff or a big potency attack for it?

I think that has to be the case, because some shit just doesn't make sense. Aero upgrades into Aero II, but both skills are unchanged except that Aero II is now instant. Which means that the "upgrade" is a total potency buff of 20.

I don't know why some of you guys are happy at some jobs being shit.

HW balance was a mess, but it still has some resemblance of it.

Stormblood is looking to be absolute bonker regarding it.

That looks to be about right, but it looks like all your normal abilities (split, slug, clean, heat) do 10 heat each, making the weaving a bit more spread out

Wait.....

So you can spam it if you just use regular fists of wind?

Let me guess...Fists of Fire/Earth/Wind will 'automatically' change to Riddle of Fire/Earth/Wind and not let you use the previous versions once learned

I'm not sure how I'm feeling about these MCH changes.
>>
>>378647785
I think this is the end of monk for me. We now have less of a rotation to manage and the new skills are not really exciting, especially when our damage buff makes us slower. I'll at least level it to 70 to give it a chance but I'll probably switch over to RDM so the game does not become completely stale.
>>
>>378649209
Probably a mistranslation/clerical error and it's meant to say "and" not "or".

>>378648237
Seems in order to bring PLD in line they had to tone down DRK AoE some. Granted you only used Unleash during the pull itself anyway so its almost akin to Flash.

Bane nerf for smn among other things, but what they got in return makes up for it. blackmage looks bad desu

>>378649239
it's instant, same as before

>>378649274
Yes, but in return their dots last 30 seconds now and tri disaster's cooldown resets whenever you enter dwt
>>
>>378649274
It's now a 5% damage buff for 15 seconds

Tri-disaster refreshes every time you enter Dreadwyrm.
We get Bio 3 and Miasma 3 as our only 2 dots and they both have 30 second duration. You will almost never be applying the raw spells now.

If there are only two dots why is it called Tri-disaster. Shouldn't it be Di-disaster?

They basically removed most of the penalties and made combos simpler. It feels like a 2.X PLD now, except with more oGCDs to throw around. Well, at least PLD is now the "magic tank/holy knight" I wanted to play since I got this game.

It's how SE tries to slow down power creep and resets everything to a relatively "fresh 50 during 2.0 launch" baseline despite our increasing stats.
>>
WHY DOES MONK GET NO FISTS OF WATER?
>>
>>378649701
I think most people care, it's basically a second Rampart now
>>
>>378649184
>GCDs 10 heat each
>Cooldown decreases 25 heat
So it's more like 50 > 60 > 70 > 80 and then you have you to use the cool down. After that it would be 55 > 65 > 75 > 85 > 60 > 70 > 80 > 90 > 65 etc. So there might be a point where you have to reset your gauge to 50 and repeat. And even then you have to fish for procs. So stance dancing doesn't feel like it's going to be neccessary a lot of times.

>>378648830
But then we give BLM Foul something they don't even need umbral stacks for and cost only 240 mp with a normal cast time. You think the abuse will stop? No its only just begun.

Protect, Esuna, Swiftcast, Lucid Dreaming, Largesse.

The role actions for healers are kind of a joke in that they moved essentials like MP refreshing to role actions. There's zero build flexibility.

Seems like a stealth TP recharge, which could be useful in AOE situations, or long fights like A9(S). Slow down the rotation without sacrificing much damage. Situational like the other new riddles.
