From what I've heard from those that played, monks actually are fine. A lot of them are already saying that they are going to run Monks for raids when they were able to try them out in the dungeon that was available for them in the media tour. They specifically said that the additions weren't exciting, but they were really needed for Monks to be used. Also Brotherhood was proccing really well they said.

So are their pants just straight up shorts? Are there other non-gendered above-knee shorts in the game?

>>379372809
I guess that makes sense, while Creator was the in-thing I was taking a break so I probably just missed the bulk of the whining.

>>379372829
I actually programmed a simulator to see how Monk was doing (since its combo logic is pretty damn simple) and I'd totally believe that. 5% of the total raid damage 1/6 of the time plus basically a free Forbidden Chakra isn't a match for Trick Attack, but it's not really that far off, and their personal DPS is pretty well improved from HW - they don't match the 305 PPS number I saw being thrown around for Samurai, but they also naturally scale better with Critical Chance due to Chakra's generation.

Their shit doesn't look flashy nor does it presumably feel very good to play with, but they're by no means nerfed in any way.

It's pretty fun if you just need a game to kill a few days.
It's honestly one of the better combat systems i've experienced in an mmo but the lack of any end game pve is what killed it for me.

If you like pvp its a good side game to play once in a while.

Is ninja safe or cucked in SB?
>>
>>379372996
People forgot that monks in SB have 2 chances of getting free Chakra. A trait that gives them 50% chance in any crit for free Chakra and Brotherhood. Which means that when Brotherhood is active, you get a pseudo 80% chance to get free chakra. The rest of the time it's 50%. I think that's respectable.
>>
>>379373190
That's because I never talk, there is no reason to. We are in this group and even if you don't know the mechanics the other 3 people do and can carry. No communication is required.

24 mans and 8 mans the same thing applies, I assume you know your role, if you don't I call you a fucking moron in my head but it's not worth the effort to type it out, trigger you, and then have you perform worse than you already are.

Isn't it 30% from crit?
>>
>>379373235
Pretty safe. Their rotation was simplified to retard levels but other than that they have more or less the same capabilities as they do now. Tanks also have a Shadewalker variant so that might not be as relevant anymore but it's much weaker than NIN's and eats up one of their cross-role slots so NIN will probably still be the go-to class if you want major aggro manipulation.

>>379373287
Is it 50% in the JP tooltip? The English one had 30% and that's what I was estimating with, just a pure .3 * critrate chakra gain for each weaponskill (outside of in-stance bootshine).

I also assumed 1 other melee and 2 tanks for Brotherhood, so .9 gain per 'outside' GCD.

And that's another fun thing, tooltips aren't final, potency nerfs could be reverted, if the dev team listens to extreme monk whining they may just be the best melee out the gate even with their extremely boring changes.
>>
>>379372558
Like, wait 3-6 months until they deliver some actual content and reduce the grind?
>>
>>379373467
It is 30% in JP tooltip also. Not sure where that anon got 50% from.
>>
>>379373475
apart from weekly tomestones, which have always been there, what grind are you even talking about

Relic weapon isn't in 4.0, savage isn't in for a couple of weeks. What the fuck are you grinding?
>>
>>379373467
It's not just melee that can proc brotherhood, ranged DPS use weaponskills too. Most comps I suspect will be 3 physical DPS, 1 magic.
>>
>>379373458
I would if I could. I'm on vacation with no PC in sight.
>>
>>379373467
>>379373525
My bad it's 30%. But still it's ok. Not great. Not exciting. But ok.

It's kinda obvious why they did nerf potencies for Monks though. They wanted to push SAM. So now that job is the selfish job, while Monk now has utility in exchange for it not being top DPS as well. Maybe 2nd now really.
>>
>>379373571
Huh, good point. And by trying to tweak this I find I've made some sort of idiot mistake and somehow Brotherhood isn't adding any Chakra.
>>
>>379373571
Do tanks not trigger it?
>>
>>379373571
Brotherhood has a 15y range so it might be hard to hit the ranged DPS with it sometimes, especially now that BRDs and MCHs don't have cast times and will probably move around like spastics.
>>
>>379373560
If it's the same as it was in Heavensward, it's going to take you about 200-300 hours to get to the cap and finish the story quest (+probably unlock flying mount in every single location AFTER you've already finished all important quests there). Then, if you want to actually play raids and stuff, you will have to grind some trials and dungeons (unless you're lucky) to get decent gear, which is probably 100 more hours.

And if you actually read through all storyquests and watch cutscenes, I pity you, since not only you manage to enjoy the terrible writing, but you're wasting a lot of your time with it.
>>
>>379374008
15y is pretty generous.

Battle Litany is 15y too.
>>
>>379373983
If it was 3 physical DPS, so Monk, Dragoon, and Bard say, then you'd have 4 eligible weaponskill users to generate Chakra.

So basically an average of 1.2 chakra per combined GCD of the group, and you can expect about 6 GCDs to pass under Brotherhood's affect, so 7.2 Chakra average gained every 90 seconds, plus the bonus damage.
>>
>>379374031

I finished the final 3.0 story quest (heavensward) before early access ended.

probably about 30-40 hours and that could've been done in so much less if you didn't get sidetracked like i did.

>>379372661

>>379372661
Finally got NIN to 60, I'm left with WAR at 51, DRG at 52, BRD at 50, WHM at 56, BLM at 51 and MCH at 37 to get up to 60. I'm also leveling up the crafting classes thanks to the moogles.

>>379372741
> I know they haven't exactly been in good graces for about half of HW
Make that since the start of HW, it's been two expansions and we got absolute shit for new skills, HW only introduced 2 usable ones, Elixir Field and Form Change and we had to wait till SB for the chakra-powered ones to be usable more than once per fight and making some HW skills viable is the best thing brought by SB even if it's still not completely true since Riddle of Earth now entirely replaces Tornado Kick.
Meanwhile other DPS had skills brought in either HW or SB that heavily changed their rotation, monk is now even easier to play than at release since they never ever complexified it and it now loses two DoTs.

That and the 3 Fists skills are still completely uninteresting and wastes of skill slots, their "evolved" version like Riddle of Fire could've been integrated to the monk as a change to Greased Lightning depending on which Fists are active for the last skill of your combo, like Fists of Earth changes it to Greased Dirt that heavily increases the damage but reduces the skill speed like Riddle of Fire currently does, Fists of Wind being the opposite while also reducing the skills CD and Fire being the current effect.

I agree with this. Bard was the opposite of Blackmage originally, meaning that while black mage had a high damage potential it was hurt the worst by a lack of mobility and while BRD didn't have as high a damage potential they had basically no downtime during mechanics which created a balance.

Except it didn't because Bard was ridiculously overpowered until the Cross Class Nerfs but I really liked the idea of damage through mobility.

I disagree strongly but I'm sure its a difference in taste- but both elicit a strong emotional response.

Alexander is upbeat and heroic, the whole thing is highflying and hype. "Oh god no I'm really fighting Bahamut" vs "Fuck yeah I'm fighting Alexander"

The stuff that comes up in trial roulette is (for the most part) fairly forgiving when it comes to mistakes. Plus, you won't need to swap or deal with tankbusters in your roulettes. Just extreme stuff as far as I remember. Just look up text guides for stuff like the Chrysalis or Final Steps and let your party know that you haven't tanked it before. You'll be fine.

Healer dps is not factored in when designing content (or at least hasn't been since Gordias), which means that healers actually doing DPS in progression content means that you can clear it before the calculated gear level for clearing is reached. It's only required if you are the bleeding edge.

However, required vs helpful is a retarded way to look at it, if you're just going for the bare minimum of 'I cleared it yay' why not just wait a few months and let Echo and catchup gear just make it a pushover fight for you. Then everyone can be a lazy piece of shit like these healers apparently think they're justified to be.

I find the hardest part of tanking in 24 man raids is deciding who's gonna break the ice and pick up maintanking.

there is literally no excuse for a healer not to DPS anymore, given the opportunity.

>>379380552
At best you're looking at 20+ hours. Not including the extra time of running into traps, learning the class, setting up hotbars to play it, and if not premade, dealing with utter fucking idiots who'll want to do full clears.
>>
>>379380552

Time is also heavily dependent on if they increase the 50-59 armory bonus from 50% to 100%.

If they do that's going to slash an absolutely massive amount of time off grinding.

Redesign the lilies system entirely, make Confessions generate off HOT ticks, lower cooldown of Plenary to 5s.

>>379380704
I mean, I know on MNK and NIN we love our lower GCD and the feel of the class is pretty defined by the speed Greased Lightning/Huton offers, but if you put that feeling aside, Riddle of Fire is a strong buff that also lowers our reliance on Invigorate.

I still want to complain until they take away the speed reduction part though.

They should just make everything hard like doing Vault in ironworks or Aurum Vale where you have to constantly heal. Then these heal only shitters will cry for nerfs

If dungeons were easier and faster, you'd still expect healers to DPS. Theres no such thing as doing dps to make things go slower. If I could finish dungeons in 5 minutes without healer DPS, I'd still tell them to DPS so we could finish it in 4.

>MNK is almost the same as 2.0/3.0 but now with 1 less DoT
2 less DoT, Fracture was useful as a filler when you had an extra GCD where filling it with something that wasn't part of the rotation didn't make one of your buffs or other DoT drop so you had to keep track of them which is now seen as too hard by the devs. Its only real problem was its TP cost that would've been fixed with the easier access to the chakra to TP skill with the changes.

No.

Rowena is a business person in every sense of the word.

Instead of keeping Gerolt employed and on a salary that she might not afford given his talent and reputation, she instead keeps him in a perpetual debt. Meaning she basically has him as a slave.

>>379384470
And here I was thinking they were just going to relegate Estinien to a job trainer that was irrelevant to the story past HW.

Here's hoping to the story just murdering or at least seriously injuring everyone unlikable so we can have a good story again.

Don't think I implied anywhere it was surprising, pretty sure I said the opposite.

>It happens every patch trailer in the MSQ section
>MSQ section
Exactly, patches have a breakdown of features but a trailer for an expansion pack doesn't. Not to mention patch trailers are more for existing, subscribed players, whereas this trailer is meant to attract new players, especially since SB as a whole is designed to attract a new audience.

It's a shit trailer and marketing for SB has been shit in general and no, it's not surprising given that SE doesn't want to reinvest into XIV.

Its not very likely Y'shtola is killed. We all know how Yoshi-P feels about permanence. Y'sh is far too popular a character to be offed.

They won't spoil on a story they haven't released. That's pretty stupid if they did it.

>>379384784
It doesn't even spoil anything. I'm inclined to believe Y'shtola doesn't die, is just injured for the rest of 4.0 since they showd it in the trailer. A good way to draw new players in is to show some badass MSQ scenes anyways.

You're overreacting.

Basically entire monk questline was you training under some monk guy while helping some scholar with his research. In the end monk trainer goes nuts and tries to kill you cause "muh ala mhigo". After battle he tells that line to the scholar NPC who replies that yes, he will tell each and every one of them that if they get their freedom by being horrible shits then it's worthless

I admittedly haven't read the supplementary lore, but is there ANY reason why we, or anybody, should care about Ala Migo?

Eorzea's supposed to be like a third-world shithole from the Empire's perspective.
>>
>>379385229
The only real advertisement came form the development team themselves, while SE are busy promoting Carl's Jr and Papa John's.

The live letter, the job actions trailer, all of that was put together and handled by the developers. We found out changes to the combat system one month ahead of launch. We know very little about crafting/gathering. Judging by your posts you probably just won't give a fuck no matter what, but lack of marketing means the game will grow at a slower pace or not grow at all, because a job actions trailer tells fuck all to a person potentially interested. This trailer will also be more appealing to existing players.

This reflects SE's general apathy towards the game. They don't help advertise SB, they started putting more and more shit in the Mog Station instead of using it to fuel free content (a promise initially made when the cash shop expanded), the seasonal events are still dry and boring, content's being repeatedly downsized instead of expanded. SB might prove otherwise but so far the team's been working with scraps SE tosses them.

Buffer state to keep Garlemald the fuck out of Eorzea. Otherwise there really isn't much of value except muh proud Ala Mhigan culture.
>>
>>379386253
Primal's basically cause super global warming. So the empire, of course, doesn't want the world to become a dust ball. Also eorzea has a shitton of alagan artifacts.

As for why the WoL cares, basically no one really cared about Ala Nigo because they tried to invade the other city states but got cucked. However Iberd basically made it our problem by sending a primal and a god weapon hurtling there.

>>
>>379386253
I personally believe that Fordola has the right of it. Ala Mhigo brought all of its problems upon itself and they're probably better off being controlled by the Garleans, even if they're assholes about it.

Everywhere Ala Mhigans go they're cancer incarnate. It's real telling that Ishgard put their war with Nidhogg on hold JUST to fuck their shit up.

Even Ilberd said they were good for nothing sacks of shit, and summoned his primal mainly as a final fuck you to the Garleans

The theme of the story and I guess the setting in general is that typical Japanese of the underdogs persevering in adversity, that progress isn't always a good thing, especially if autocratic.

It's that "it's a shithole, but it's OUR shithole" mentality.
