Final Fantasy XIV: STORMBLOOD

ARR Dragoon was boring as fuck, I wish I had never bought into the AF gear meme.

50 had a lot of boring classes, BRD was good 50 and is going to be hella fun and mobile again with 70. God I can't fucking wait for stormblood.

>>379555330
>potential to be unbalanced and poor illusion of choice

Trying to make it too balanced is what makes it boring in the first place. If you just make it so its """balanced""" then every class ends up doing the same shit which is the ACTUAL delusion of choice and Its pretty much what we're headed too. If YoshiP wasn't so afraid of adding things that made certain classes more useful than others in all kinds of content, we wouldn't be having this problem and we'd still have interesting debuffs and shit like making use out of binds, heavy, and malady.

Dungeons being a fucking hallway with trash is also another problem.

The game can be fast-paced, rotation-based, and mechanics-heavy without having to take off all the depth.

I'm not saying that guy is playing right for not wanting to equip his jobstone but he isn't hurting anyone because of it, hes not running current savage on it either, not that any group would seriously take him.

>>379561967
I think its more the fact that he's in such an obscenely small minority that there is no need to cater to people like him whatsoever

>The FFXI playerbase is a small minority

If you assume at least half the players who played XI are playing 14 thats at least two entire servers worth of people. I wouldn't call that a minority or something to ignore. Yoshida solves it by just saying "lol its a different kind of game" and not delivering any of his promises.

Like I said in my post, the game doesn't have to be any different than it already is, my suggestions only add more depth to what is already something very shallow and completely based of muscle memory, and Yoshida actually wants to make it MORE shallow.

I miss ARR rotations. In SB rotations will feel like some shitty minigame.

>>379561347
And "MNK but slower" is fun?

>>379562532
erp

>>379562584
Not only FFXI players want this stuff, anyone who played a MMORPG before WoW will probably want it.

Hell I'm from RO and the idea of having zero customization at all bothers me. Is this a fucking RPG or some random action game?

Rotate 3 Sen combos > Kaiten + Midare
If Hagakure is up then use that instead of Kaiten + Midare and do 3 Shinten between GCD.

>>379562584
sounds like a whole lot of baseless assumptions.
the fact that you don't see anyone clammering to save CC skills seems pretty indicative of the fact that no one gives a fuck about them and would rather they went the way of the dodo.

>>379563189
I'm not saying the cross class skills need to stay, but the Role Actions aren't any better.

They removed something with a slight amount of customization and also something that gave slight advantages for being a certain class (like AST not having E4E for example or when Protect gave Shell only as a WHM) and removed it for something that will basically be the same fucking thing, but without ANY CHOICE whatsoever.

EVERYONE will use the same fucking role actions. Instead of adding more depth, they took it away and gave you something braindead.

Theres also the fact that Yoshida has kept pretty much none of his 1.0 promises to all the Legacy players and did gross and stupid shit like making Scholar into a fucking fairy summoner healer when it would have been a better fit as a sage-like DPS and Summoner not having any actual summons till now.

>>379563309
This is the healer that doesn't DPS

>>379563645
>t-t-t-t-those d-d-damn k-k-k-kids!!

>>379563663
Are you insane? Role actions have way more customization and thought required than ARR's crossclass ever did.

wait
is it possible to use two mudra at the same time as ninja? i keep noticing it and at first i thought i was retarded, but for some reason i can cast raiton and shuriken at the same time

But don't you see! EVERYONE used the same fucking CC skills! In terms of how it will impact your gameplay, its the same fucking system but now you don't have to level up DRG to be a good MCH and so on.

Fucking bullshit to be honest. They didn't even update the darkside effect at least a little.

>>379563782
You're right, but you're forgetting the fact that certain classes under the same role had access to CC that other classes didn't, that had potential that was never built on.

Alphy had like no screen time in the release trailer so Alisaie is probably his replacement for this expansion while Alphy is busy being the ambassador for the Scions in Eorzea

I guess they fixed surecast never being used making it 100% worthless.

>>379564356
Priority and rotations are boring. They should have just made FFXIV into a lobby based action game like Phantasy Star Online. Maybe then they focus on making better instances and interesting loot instead of more bland open world garbage and weekly grind bullshit.

I went back to WoW for a bit during the Legion launch and felt the same. Also fuck you if at launch you decided to play a different class because you had the artifact grind to look forward to all over again not to mention the order hall time gating missions and shit.

From what we've seen so far, it looks like the party is less static than in Heavensward, with the main core comprising of Ysale and the twins.

- cast times at all

SMNs are the whiniest cunts. They should rip the dot set into a different class (Cancerer) and rework Summoner completely because why the fuck would a Summoner not be about summoning?

>>379564061
I wonder if Cleric Stance will even be worth it. 5% for 15 seconds on a cooldown like that seems like a waste.

Scholar may be able to trade out Lucid Dream for Eye for an Eye, but we'll have to see how they play with the increased MP costs. AST and WHM will still need it for sure.

One healer needs to bring Protect, and the other can ignore it.

Same with Esuna, but in most fights it can be ignored completely by both.

>>379565098
Probably, either way I'm going to be keeping an eye out in the 60-70 DRK quests for an NPC who looks suspiciously similar to my character. I think it'd be neat as FUCK if they had your darkside just lurking around in the background of quest cutscenes, not necessarily being pointed out or having any interraction with the circumstances of the quest, just slightly out of frame so that we don't forget about him.

Worth it in fights that have short gaps for DPS time that sync up with the cooldown so that it's a straight up 5% increase instead of the 0.whatever% it will be with that cooldown. Very specific situation so it's unlikely.

>>379565004
No, it was because at launch, you couldn't overwrite your DoTs with weaker versions of your own DoTs. So if you'd just done Chaos Thrust and Phlebotomize with Blood for Blood up, you wouldn't be able to reapply them without BfB up unless they actually completely fell off naturally first.

So if you followed your rotation naturally, you'd end up with a bunch of dead-end DoTs where you'd hit Chaos Thrust and Phlebotomize at 1-2 seconds left on their timers, but the only damage you'd get would be from the initial hit, and the BfB DoTs would just wear off without ever applying your new set.

You'd use Fracture to space things out by a GCD so that your DoTs would definitely fall off before you tried to reapply them.

I play both, and raid in a 12/hr a week guild. I can't raid on 14 because of it, but I enjoy both games.

I do an hour of WQs a day and otherwise don't log in much except to raid, I've been doing this for many months now and have never felt like I was behind on my character progress.

Flying was a mistake

Nope.

>>379568140
So you can't complain there's no reason to ever explore on the ground.

They're different, though. MCH abilities feel like they masquerade as another class with the combo bonuses, while the proc side of RDM is more like BLM, or at least what I remember of BLM from ARR.

It's really not.
Unlike on BLM, RDM procs are huge bonuses and come up more often.

>>379570984
Neither is RDM's (except Verholy/flare which you get at the end of combo) but they have much easier time since their proccing spells don't have any cast time.

what did we learn from the SB launch trailer

nothing?

You should really take this thread to /vg/

>>379570897
BLM procs are shortcuts, RDM's function more like "critical hits" of spells cast. They're similar enough though.

Just got through the HW base msq. Now I'm going through the end game MSQs. What's the best way for me to raise my I level without wasting currencys on stuff that will become obsolete in SB?

I didn't even realise it was Setzer from VI in that game because of how shitty they made him.

I just reached floor 60 of PotD. How do I keep redoing floor 51-60? I don't see an option.

It doesn't have AoE skills besides Contre Sixte or role actions besides SC, but the AoE rotation is basically Scatter > Moulinet spam and caster role actions are pretty much utility. It's pretty much perfect every other way though, and is a nice little time waster/muscle memory builder.

I'll probably macro Corps a corps to do a hotbar change, I just have no idea where to squeeze in the melee combo.
