BLM doesn't really 'lose' anything integral to their kit, and you can't feel too bad about losing raging strikes because everyone else lost it too.

You got slight potency nerfs to Fire II and IV but you can cast IV like 9 times in a row and plus you have a 650 potency spell every 30 seconds where SMN can only use Akh morn every 2 minutes

i saw that, but i really dunno if his math is correct on the seal conversion to kenki being better than just straight doing another 3seal
like it's not going to give you any more kaitens because you have more than enough sword juice gain naturally to cast it before every 3seal and have some left over
his general point seems correct in that kaiten and shinten are the only things you should be spending sword juice on tho

unfortunately WHM just needs to be entirely reworked again. It's just ridiculous that their new class gimmick involves around spamming Cure/Cure II which a good WHM isn't going to be doing. According to the math you're casting on average 15 cures just to get your 3 lillies, which only serve to cut the cooldown of certain skills by up to 20% for 3 lillies, which is who gives a fuck.

You can't even make use of the 'minimal' version with only one lily which only cuts a cooldown by a whopping 4%

>>378822307
It takes 10 Blood Price procs to power a Quietus, and only 5 Blood Price procs to power a Dark Arts. By the time you can use Quietus, you have a Dark Arts worth of extra MP to spend.

If you're getting enough MP to alternate AD and Quietus, you can DA every Quietus and every AD, and the only net MP loss will be from the base, non-DA'd AD (if you've got any more enemies hitting you than the exact minimum to use Quietus every second GCD, you're probably at a net gain).

No, it won't. DA AD makes the DRK self-sustaining, +50 potency to an AoE move isn't that big when a single use of DP is +150 for the same MP cost

>>378822785
Fester might NOT have had a potency nerf, but rather just a stupidly translated tooltip.

It's 150 for 1 dot and "200 for 2", but 200 for 2 would be a downright nerf.

It was shown to still be stronger than painflare and the assumption that it hits "200 each", meaning its actual potency with Bio and Miasma on is 400, making it a buff.

to be fair, bahamut is 2.1k or so potency when active. I think summoner is in a stronger position than you're expecting it to be, especially considering Garuda gives 10% magic vuln up and a party member gets a flat 5% increase in damage.
>>
>>378821341
Yeah, fuck you. I can keep anyone shitter alive under almost any circumstance, but that doesn't mean you're suddenly somehow competent. If you can't stay alive during normal content by my fairy, Whispering Dawn, and your cooldowns alone, you are a gigantic fucking waste of air.

Furthermore, the more effort I have to put into keeping your sorry ass alive means less damage being put out into the group of enemies massacring your asshole.

So if you're the tank: you get fucking good, you inefficient retard. If you're the healer, take some of those cocks out of your mouth and demand some standards. Either way, get fucked.

Ruin 4 is 220 potency. It says 200 but is only cast with the ruination thing, which has the 220 potency.

I'm not sure why they even bothered with the distinction because you can't cast Ruin IV on its own anyways.

You save a shit ton of gcb by dots lasting 30 seconds now though, much more ruins are gonna fly out. Huge dps gain just right there.

Shadowflare only nerfed in aoe situation where a shit tank displace mobs from it. ogcd means can be weaved in dwt for bonus dmg, means swiftcast can be used elsewhere and gcd saved if you ever had to hardcast it.

Fester is confirmed wrong description since in mr.happy video, fester hits much more harder than painflare without crit, that was a no brainer really.

Garuda brings party foe's
Ifrit brings party hypercharge
5% dmg boost on a single target buff ( that one is still missing a clear description though )

SMN might actually be meta.

shadowflare being on a 60s cooldown isn't as bad as you think since it's instant cast, and free.

So you don't have to waste GCDs on casting it, and it saves a lot of MP, which I guess matters more for SMN.

I found a pretty good system for my hotbars, having 3 horizontal lines with buffs and stuff going on top, off gcd and general abilities on the 2nd line and main rotation on the third.

Besides, potency is an idiotic measure when you consider that weapon damage could be lower than NIN daggers. Almost as if the reason for potency to exist is to provide an easy method of deciding the best skills to use within your own class.

600 potency heal on WHM is not necessarily the same as a 600 potency heal on SCH or AST unless all 3 have equal weapon damage per ilvl, I'm honestly too lazy to check

>>378825061
I'm not questions SAM's ridiculous deeps at all. Shit looks bonker. Also comparing Guren to Dragonfire Dive makes me salty as DRG.
>>
>>378825132
The problem is that it got nothing while AST got better healing, better AoE healing than assize, a cooldown that draws all their hands, an ability to let you turn a card you dont want into a nuke or heal, and buffed shields to critadlo on demand. WHM on the other hand got the ability to sometimes have lower cooldowns when they heal, and Stone IV.

>>378824962
Does the G600 have mechanical keys like the Scimitar does?

Every dungeon still gets ran because of duty roulettes.

Raids are iffy, but there are endgame systems that encourage people to run old raids. Mention a first-timer bonus and pray I guess, or find an FC that doesn't mind teaching.

Trials still get run all the time for mount farms, and also because duty roulettes.

Hey it's true, Polyglot has no timer. Umbral Hearts have no timer. Enochian can be kept up by Transpose. That means that if you were going for a silly parse or for some reason being brought to a speedkill, the best opener would involve resetting the boss, or zoning in with those buffs already up.

Most of SMN's nerfs were really simplification.
The reason Ruin III was nerfed was because people were using it in the way it wasn't intended. Because of this, Aetherflow got nerfed as well (and also because SMN gets Lucid Dream now)
Ruin IV is actually a buff if anything since it's 220 potency and cheaper than Ruin II (and yes I know it's a proc) but SMNs will use Ruin III outside DWT either way.
Don't forget that Tri-Disaster increases Ruin spells (around 15% or 10% maybe).
DoTs are still the same, just 2 DoTs and we wouldn't be wasting a gcd.

The real nerf really is Bane. I feel sorry for SCHs there.

eh? same shit as before, but cleric stance is like.. raging strikes or bloodpower or whatever the fuck those are called.

How can they (in theory) have gotten tank balance so right then fucked up so hard on healers? Makes no goddamn sense.

So I see all of these WHM complaints but can we put more attention on how fucking TRASH nearly every single MNK SB change is going to be? I'm honestly surprised at just how terrible Square was able to be, some of the changes literally dont even have synergy with the class.

>Riddle of fire is a 30% damage increase on a 90 second cooldown with a fucking penalty to attack speed that will most likely force double weaving and gcd clipping (especially with forbidden chakras terrible animation lock) to get the most out of it.
>Riddle of earth will sit completely useless 90% of the time since its usefulness depends completely on fight design to hope there is some damage you can bait for an extension.
>Massive waste of time, effort, and resources put in fucking shoulder tackle depth that fucking no one wants or asked for and will be generally useless for the class.
>Brotherhood is a weak shit 5% buff that allows you to gain chakra stacks from others but you cant even spam forbidden chakra during a RoF+BH phase due to the 5 second cool down.
>ToD gone along with nearly every single Gcd geting a potency nerf.

There is no class deeper in the shed that mnk right now, the class was not only straight up nerfed it's SB additions are for the most part garbage.
>>
>>378826812
World first probably WON'T do that, you don't want to waste your time on things like that when you can be chain pulling and figuring shit out.

That's why the cooldown reset in 2.4 is so amazing, and why people don't pool double balance for progression unless it would help you skip some really difficult phase or something.

Pooling buffs is something more for speedkills and pad runs. You don't want to waste time when racing for world first.

Unecessary because of Noct sect. Still don't get how people dont realize just how impossible it is to balance around an ondemand instant critlo with super cheap mp costs.

Chance at two aoe balances in a row is better for a raid setting, considering AST's are coordinating through voice.

But really the first is the real cake. Noct Sect is extremely powerful from a mitigation perspective. Its insane for progression and trivializes farming despite making it slower. Unless it gets a nerf its AST/AST

Ah, yeah that's a bit different. Our group pretty much got to A11S on day 2 or 3 (weren't going very hard on hours), so information wasn't that widespread on it yet. There was some hearsay on limit cut, and we tried to base our strategy for it off that.

Originally we thought it was a spread thing to different angles, like Ravana EX. Then we settled on the "2 point" thing, but didn't know the facing on the even guys mattered (we thought the knockback always happened). We only thought the knockback was wrong when the last phase one came up, with the walls gone, so we asked around and found out the evens had to be facing inwards. I ended up creating a stupid mspaint drawing for it, the best kind of diagram.

The most wipes on A11S for us came from Lapis phase until we organized it a bit better.

I'm literally only still with them because I pumped millions into my room, and I still make use of the constant EXP and food buffs.

As soon as Yoshi announces new worlds on Aether, I'm hopping ship with my friends and static with the free world transfer to new worlds.

My static isn't much better (took us about 20 lockouts to clear 12s, give or take early exits for repairs), but at least they show some semblance of being able to learn, and it's not like we're going for world first or speed runs.

I'm no expert, so I don't like to theorycraft like I know shit, but I think they'll even out on damage. They lost a lot with HE, B4B, and IR gone, plus Disembowel and Raging Strikes getting nerfed.
The constant crit buff is really really tiny, so I don't think its actually a big deal to have, and Foes supposedly increases damage by 3%, no decrease taken, so thats better, but still not amazing.
Ultimately, the hope with BRD is that the damage evens out and theyre still able to match/surpass all other dps, but we'll have to wait to see.

No it was just mostly us being bad with placement that it auto-wiped us. We never ran into DPS issues, although we didn't always skip the last 2 orb placements, which made it a bit harder.

That's what happens when the majority of what a class gets doesn't actually do much for the class at all. While all the other dps got grand new abilities, potency increases ect, monk got a shoulder tackle that they can use during fist of earth that knocks enemies out of melee range. Monk lost a decent dot yet kept fucking arm of the destroyer and one lm punch for fucks sake, hell it didn't even get one new damaging skill.

Because smart healing means ignoring when your dumbfuck dps gets hit by something they shouldn't have, or ignoring when a mechanic targets someone other than the tank. Normally you have to heal them yourself, but fairy does it for you. Why waste your own gcd using OPAF CRITLO LOL when you can just ignore it entirely?

Lowering the percent chance gives a larger decay on the return, but people will more than likely be stacking crit over all other buffs for another two years, so yeah itll most likely be pretty sweet to have.

>>
>>378827396
I really wish people would stop using the terms "off healer" and "main healer". Both healers do instants/regens/fairy and do dps. Doing single target heal casts is avoided by both, and is usually done by whoever already has their DoTs up. And in the case that they both have DoTs up, the one doing the heal should be the one with a lesser potency on Broil/Stone III/Malefic II.

BRD may lose the damage buff from old Minuet, but they also get their autos back so that should also somewhat even out the loss.

I just found photon annoying because after eternal darkness happens, you can't move until you are healed. Tanks were fine, but our DPS couldn't/wouldn't stop for some reason. EDD wipes us almost 'errytime because 3 DPS are dead. It's strange, because they were fine with Extreme Caution in A10.
>>
>>378828928
DRK/PLD got massive damage AND utility buffs

WAR lost Storm's Path, lost Bloodbath, lost exclusivity of slashing debuff, Berserk changed(30% power from 50%, but CD reduced to 60s from 90s), and the only real skills they got is "more Fell Cleave".

Also, WAR loses half their gauge, which they use for damage, when they swap stances. DRK just loses some MP and a GCD, PLD loses some that on top of half their gauge, but PLD gauge is only mitigation, not damage.

If WAR's DPS isn't insanely better than DRK/PLD, it might have a hard time justifying a spot

Guess it's been a while, so yeah curren tooltip says "100 for each", which equates to 300.

Fester's SB tooltip says "150 for one, 200 for both", which implies it does 200 total.

I'm not sure why not just make it 200 for each in general, since you're not going to be festering with a single dot so there's no real reason to make it a reduced potency.
>>
>>378828893
Well, those terms came about from the second coil days, where people still didn't know what the fuck they were doing with optimal healing. The "main healer" would mostly focus on healing, while the "off healer" would mostly focus on DPS. Obviously, a lot of healer damage comes from DoTs, this is actually retarded, since both healers can DPS. Not only that, the bosses just don't do enough damage to rationalize one healer not doing damage.
>>
>>378829313
Perfectly doable. Most people I know play with controllers. Though personally I just couldn't keep up with the hotbar changes and all that.

Go check out the options, there should be something called expanded hotbar or something that lets you toggle more bars by r2+l2 and l2+r2 combos

>>378829205
it was hitting for like 4-5k in one of the videos from the media tour, it's a pretty respectable heal

You have up to 48 buttons without switching hotbars via R1.

But the mechanic is shielding, "not moving" is unreliable because of caster's cast bars and server ticks. You should be using deploy on the EDD Photon, and adlos on the healer/tank ones.

If that one AST is supposedly just spamming Aspected Benefic, it's just wasted GCDs. What're those GCDs on AST going to be replaced with? Their now garbage single-target damage spells, which are 210 potency while also losing Combust?

Or perhaps you mean the off-chance the actually get a decent card? Seeing as every card but Balance is garbage, save Bole for situational encounters.

The fairy is ridiculously good. Fey Union is a stable HoT that is 450 fucking potency. That is absurd, and it remains up for a long ass time. Not only that, but Chain Strategem is literally just Battle Litany+.

We'll get better in 5.0, r-right?

Worth to try and level all three tanks at once? I figure that after I get my main job SMN F to 70 and finish story, I can cash in on queue times and not have to juggle caster, healer, and tank gear sets, along with my crafters and gatherers.

Smart move?

>SMN is also looking bad.
SMN is fine, the adjustments were just for balance. The only nerf it got was Bane but it'll affect SCH more.

why do people say this while their pets literally received 30% more damage out of nowhere, while, currently, most part of SMN's damage comes from their filler skill

Main and Mend affects pets in live right now.
The traits were completely 100% unchanged.

Thanks for the (you)s, but I truly am looking for advice.

The 30% pet damage buff is actually not something new, but people are too quick to judge SMN because Ruin III got nerfed, it lost a DoT and Shadowflare got adjusted but those are actually good things and some things were done to balance it out.

>how far am I from completing the base game would you say based on pic related?
Uh, full vanilla? not too far, but I assume you mean all of ARR. In which case, you have to 100+ quests of hell after you hit 50.
>Also, what's the most fun melee DPS class to play?
>opinions
I'm partial to NIN, MNK is getting fucked soon, and DRG isn't great to me
>Hope I get a new robe or piece of clothes soon also.
Glamours are the true endgame. buy something that doesn't look like ass and glamour your stuff to look like it.

You've got a lot left to play. Considering the slog that is leveling from 40 to 50.
Monk is the best.
Go do PotD if you don't want to grind fates at coerthas after the story locks you out.
