>Also wonder why they cant keep the ps3 version in mat. mode
One of the biggest issues with PS3 was limited graphical memory so they couldn't do anything about HUD and had to scale some things down at launch to make it fit, so the new job gauge gimmicks are literally impossible to implement.
>>
>>380454735
continuing to support ps3 would mean continuing to pay sony to push updates to the console, not to mention holding back the game because of hardware limitations. if ps3 gets no more updates then it's impossible for them to play on the same servers as newer clients unless you want their game to crash instantly.

>>380455709
If you want to play it because you like it, go for it for sure. If you're just concerned about raid comp, then go AST. Still, I think you'd still be able to find a raid spot as SCH; there will probably be lots of people going AST because of how strong it looks.
>>
>>380456145
it still costs manpower to setup servers and maintain them. not to mention those servers would be better off supporting bigger population worlds (like the new EU one)

could you imagine how dead a server will be if it's stuck on patch 3.5 for YEARS.

The nerf to its AoE damage is significant but will probably only have a serious impact on your effectiveness in dungeons. Of course they could also gate everything and make us do a bunch of 4 mob pulls and if that happens sch isn't so bad off. In a raid environment scholar will likely continue to be quite good.

As someone who plays all three healers Astro is frankly too powerful and needed to be nerfed instead of buffed. WHM will be serviceable but their new skills are fucking junk in comparison to the other two's. If you're interested in raiding as a healer I would level Astro and Scholar, then WHM if you're curious. I happen to really, really enjoy WHM but its lack of team utility and unfun-looking new mechanics mean that I'll probably raid as scholar, again. I think double Astro might turn out to be better, but scholar is so damn easy and well suited to its sub-role.

As a SCH main myself, why are you saying it's "gutted"? I know the Bane nerfs and Aetherflow nerfs suck, but what makes you think it's so bad that you'd want to switch? Not trying to be obtuse here, I just want to know your thoughts.

No doubt they'll add the 24-mans and the Alex Normal floors to Wondrous Tails at some point, but Savage might be hard at first. When everyone can overgear them to hell and do them unsynced easily, then you might be able to attract some people for bonus tomes and Second Chance points.

I'm just glad we get to use all of our songs as stances.
>>
>>380457846
I use it for dps and healing. I dodge shit and handle mechanics perfectly while being consistently at 1st-2nd place given my gear is appropriate (I even beat Shire shitters with a Padjali weapon), and I play both SCH and AST comfortably with it while stance dancing.

It's only shit in Frontlines where there are 500 niggers running around.

My best advice to you would be to join a big/active FC, there you should be able to find people in fc chat who are willing to queue with you through dungeons. Hell there are probably even people who are willing to craft you gear so that you don't have to grind to 235 for Baelsar's Wall. Since you're on Ultros try joining Terra or SEED, they're both friendly FC's with lots of active players and you can always leave if you don't like it. You could also try GAF or ZR but those have neo-gaf and /v/ shitters in them.

You can actually move a bit before the skill finishes casting and move until you start casting again. Doing that, you could pretty much not turn off WM ever unless you really had to haul ass.

Go with whatever strikes you, friendo. If you didn't like Arcanist too much, then it's probably best if you didn't go Scholar. If you think Monk looks cool, though, then go Monk. Besides, if you don't like the way it feels, then you can always just reuse your gear for Slammurai.

>>380461392

It's easy now, go to the materia melder NPC in any major city. Items have stat caps which you can't go over, but you can see all that in the melding interface and it generally won't let you screw it up. You should be able to meld all your gear with +GP materia.

I have GP materia, when I go to the melder he acts like I have nothing on me. Can you only use lower levelled materia on non-endgame gear?

it's ok, depending on how the xpac pans out I'll either enjoy it or end up quitting this game forever

player magic damage is generic but enemy magic damage isn't. for example sophia ex tankbuster drastically reduces your lightning resistance stat and her auto attacks can't be parried since they're lightning based.

I'm actually part of ZR, the thought of joining SEED passed through my head multiple times but since my friend recommended me /vg/'s guild, I said "fuck it, can't go wrong with this." and it's actually good compared to my past experiences with the /vg/ guilds.

I'll try asking around the guild chat once I come back home, I hope I can get a couple of people in the wagon.

Yeah sure. It just seems highly unlikely though. Everything they've said indicates we'll have a creator-difficulty raid. I just don't see how confession stacks and a couple extra ogcd casts fit into that. It's possible it will deal more damage than the contribution of chain strat but even then whm will be good because of its original toolkit and not any of its new shit.

>>380462230
It won't. Nothing is irredeemable about it. AST is better at healing while both SCH and AST have better utility and buffs unlike WHM's fucking Divine Benison. It only has good DPS and will only be good in Dungeons.

Math has been done for this. Using MP on Blackest Night and then using the Blood from BN on Bloodspiller is a net loss of 10 potency compared to just using the same MP on Dark Arts - but it's a gain if you use the Bloodspiller during a TA/Balance/Litany/etc where you can't fit any more DAs.

Compare that to how much potency you lose on an Inner Beast.

Just pay someone to make you a leve kit. It's around 500-750k per class to 60.

Also crafting/gathering is true end game. The only autistic portion of it is over melding so you can craft everything without the specialist bonus.

Eh, not really that bad, they basically just made PLD and DRK as good as WAR at if not better at MTing, which is good.

Still gonna main WAR but excited to play PLD and DRK now.

I understand them trying to bring up the other two tanks. But did they have to do it in a way that makes Warrior feel fucking off? They didn't have to strip bloodbath, they didn't have to give us Spirits Within with a IB cost. (Tooltip is word for fucking word, just 20 IB gauge.) Infuriate didn't need to be knocked to in combat only either.

And instead of adding a cost to change stances they could have removed the costs on the other tanks instead of making it awkward as fuck.

As someone who's used to the pacing we had before, I'm worried that some of the job changes are going to make them feel a little brain dead. Not that they were super complicated before, but it was already hard enough to stay awake during expert roulette
>>
>>380463597
I comment on it after I've had plenty of hands on time with it.

To be honest though, one of the big reasons for why WAR has been great class for me, is that it can be played with minimal effort. I can't be assed to give my 110% on every random run of braindead easy dungeon and as a war I have been able to be sufficiently efficient with minimal actual effort. So I'm not the best person to judge the changes to the game.

The only dumb change is the IB cost on the charge, which makes it pretty much useless. I really hope they get rid of that. Other than that the changes are pretty much in line with what the other tanks got.

I ran the math for 4.0 MNK. Riddle of Fire, Brotherhood procs, and Deep Meditation procs make up for the loss of weaponskill potency and Touch of Death. MNK will have, on average, the same personal DPS in SB as they do now, with slight variation depending on crit rate and group composition. This is also assuming that the 5% brotherhood buff does not apply to the MNK themselves (although this is a very marginal increase to personal DPS, almost negligible).

So MNK hasn't been nerfed in damage. Just in fun.

Two of our skills are literately taken from Paladin and Drk and given a cost. One removes a debuff. One trait, which is nice, and one skill in our DPS stance.

Meanwhile losing Mercy and Bloodbath, both of which are class actions that fit the role. How is that in line to the things other tanks are getting? We're getting unique class skills stripped for added clunkiness to our job. The charge is useless with a cost, Spirits Within is debatable with the cost. The debuff removal is fucking useless in any party situation ever. So 3/5 skills we get you could almost flat out ignore at the cost of a shitton of self-healing.

They removed bloodbath because they didn't want WAR to be able to use Berserk + BB + 6 Fell Cleaves to heal to full when both PLD and DRK use magic damage for their big damage spenders. It's pretty clear that they want the MT to actually tank in tank stance this expansion and so they're removing all the tools that allowed them to avoid doing that in hw. They also changed infuriate so that you can't use it outside of battle to keep people from using the WAR OT to infuriate + unchained + berserk on pulls before having the DRK MT provoke off WAR during pacification which let the DRK tank the whole fight without ever having to turn on grit (if he didn't fuck up).
>>
>>380465765
IB cost on Onslaught is fair, although it could potentially go down to 10. You won't use it as part of your rotation, but if it can help you get to your target even 1 GCD earlier, it's a DPS gain to use it.

It's what the community wanted. Same with SCH. The loudest complainers kept saying, for PLD, make it more like WAR. You know what PLD needs? Everything WAR has but better. Genius game designers complained so hard when PLD wasn't even half a step away from WAR/DRK to begin with that the devs took that feedback as the only possible way PLD could move forward to be viable and now all the tank roles are pretty much the same except for a few job-specific abilities. We got the most boring possible changes to tanks with le magic fell cleave and le darkness fell cleave.

Nevermind they could have expanded on Wrath/Abandon stacks and made them more interesting than a Spirits Within or a Shoulder Tackle. Berserk could have been a toggleable buff that burned wrath in exchange for a lowered GCD and higher attack power. DRK could have had its system expanded with Dark Arts affecting more than just damage, changing skills completely based on how much juice you put into it. Literally any shit idea would have been better than what we got.

If you bought the game before, then you'd have to pay for sub to play.
If you start free trial on a new account, you can get to level 35 on all of them, and you have unlimited play time.

You'd have to buy the game again, but it's almost the same as one month of sub, and it comes with a month of sub, so it's almost no difference.

>>380467158
This, it's pretty obvious they're doing this to steer the meta into a more solid MT/OT direction and keep MT in tank stance for a majority of the fight. It seems they're pretty serious about making the MT go full defense mode.

Wouldn't that mean it's literally the exact same potency as before? 50 potency over 15s compared to 25 potency over 30s?

Utility that doesn't increase dps is only useful during progression. Depending on how Omega works out progression could be very long or it could be very short.

>>380466852
Onslaught is for gap-closing and it's a DPS gain when used to gap close and get you to your target sooner. Although it'd be better if the cost was only 10.
Upheaval is more efficient than Fell Cleave when not in Inner Release, so you WILL use it as part of your rotation.
Mercy Stroke is pitiful next to what you're gaining.
Bloodbath is unnecessary as WAR already has excellent personal mitigation and two other self-healing attacks (Storm's Path and Inner Beast)

The only thing 4.0 WAR lacks is party utility.

It's a DPS loss when not in Grit because it delays your Souleater combo, which gives you more MP. Here's some math, try to ignore the whinging: https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/6ezkt6/can_we_talk_about_how_drk_got_a_2_minute_115/

When in Grit it's a DPS gain to use Blackest Night, but that's kind of moot because just being in Grit is a DPS loss overall.

Also Blackest Night only grants Blood if the shield breaks. So if you apply it and it ever fails to break, you've just lost a big chunk of DPS.

>What the community wanted

The community wanted WAR and SCH to stop being disgustingly overpowered; they didn't want them to eat shit like you imply.

WAR is a well-designed tank job that simply suffered from having too many bonuses from the tank goodie bag. They needed to have some of their fancy and necessary toolkit toned down a bit, because the solution of "just buff the others until they're like the odd one out" just screams POWER CREEP and throws everything off balance.

Fuck SCH on the other hand. It's a poorly designed mess of a job that has every bit of healer utility you could ever need in this game topped off with the most broken job mechanic in the game (fucking fairy) slathered in literally no downsides.

And contrary to your comparison, SCH barely took a hit. Yet, autist SCH mains are bitching because their AoE damage got nerfed and AST can shield well, but it misses the entire point of what makes SCH good, and the SCH vs. AST debate. Nobody gives a shit about AST's shields or Adlo, it has and will always be about that absurd fucking fairy they bring to the table.

Onslaught is not a DPS gain when 95% of the cases you can anticipate and move during a GCD, it's a DPS loss.

Upheaval is more efficient but depends solely on IB gain in practical application with the added Infuriate trait.

Mercy Stroke was situational but situational in a way that if you worked it well it was a life saving move. Nothing replaces that in the current build.

Bloodbath was literately the glue between major spiked self-healing to fill in a gap IF/IB/Equilibrium needed filling.

Both Onslaught and Upheaval are bastardized versions of PLD and DRK skills that have zero cost to use on the other two, so there is no fucking arguing for them until that's removed. Let's not even go into the removal of IB gain from skills or the debuff drop from Path.

Stopped reading here. There was nothing overpowered about the two to begin with. They are good choices in a game where you have 3 choices per role. WAR barely fucking overtakes DRK, PLD had the best buff in the game and literally the action of making Clemency o-gcd would have been enough to push it to DRK's level. The differences between the roles are so fucking razor thin to begin with, saying that anything is "overpowered" probably means you don't know what you're talking about.

>Fuck SCH on the other hand. It's a poorly designed mess of a job that has every bit of healer utility you could ever need in this game topped off with the most broken job mechanic in the game (fucking fairy) slathered in literally no downsides.
