Ha, also that fucking quest was ridiculously hard.

the creator of ACT literally said "this is beta lots of dots aren't showing up" and you retards at like because of that bard is dead.

meanwhile according to old stone sky and sea testing, samurai and machinist are actually 1 and 2, which makes sense, because they have the least utility. I'm ok with them doing more

>>381220037
Based on ACT: MCH is about 20% above SAM which is nearly 50% above everything else. Even factoring both new BRD dots: it still will be towards the bottom of the pack.

Are you actually retarded or "just pretending"?

>>381221896
Why pick a class that is good at one thing over a class that is literally good at everything? You're pretty dumb my man.

>>381222125
Because that class is the best at the only thing that matters in Extreme/Savage by orders of magnitude.

>>381221892

great for trash pulls but I wouldn't open with it single target

Why are people forgetting NIN is OP?

>>381222239

Come back when you've actually run tests.

The best MCH on Gilg is currently leading the best SAM by 20-30% in SSS depending on the attempt. SAM is a very easy class to play. MCH is probably the hardest. You're likely playing with retards.

>>381222598
Retards in these threads don't know what the fuck they're talking about. They are either still leveling and listening to Mr HABBY or pulling shit from nowhere.

What makes NIN good?

>>381227398
Paladin is pretty boring until level 54, then class slowly starts getting better and better, peaking at 68.
PvP is good to grind once you're level 30.

Conjurer is the first healing class. They could switch as soon as they hit level 15 and do the quest that has you go to other towns.
Next one is Scholar, requires Arcanist to 30, and finally Astrologian, you get once you finish ARR story around level 54.

>>381227820
NIN is a continuation of both

Shame. If you get halfway decent SAM/RDM in the party they absolutely melt everything in PotD. RDMs can double as healers too.

>>381227694
>But whenever someone asks for help he's usually the first guy to drop what he's doing to assist with things, even old ass content that no one does anymore. So he's not all bad, but holy shit can he be obnoxious.
Literally this. Sastasha, Aurum Vale, PotD- she helps all the new members as a pretty solid healer. I don't want to upset her, but I've become too jaded to find facebook tier memes amusing.

>>381228204
I'm only level 65, but she hasn't shown up yet and we're in Yanxia, so I doubt it.

>>381228091
Oh, so I don't need to bother with aetherpool? When I got Kinna I had to start from scratch.

Newbie DRG here. Thinking about picking up a tank class because both my tank and healer friends want to play SAM. I tried WAR for a bit but didn't like it at all. Is PLD better?

>>381228460
I mean if you want to keep doing POTD you probably should but just letting you know you don't progress past level 60 while you're in there.

>>381228479
What didn't you like about WAR?

>>381228479

PLD got really good in SB, but be aware that levels 1-54 are pure suffering.

>>381227369

DRG is looking weak at the moment. Not that they're "weak" weak, it's more that NIN and SAM outshine them. MNK's brotherhood scales better with more weaponskills/crit in the party so the best 3 melee comp would be MNK/NIN/SAM/BRD imo.

What's the point of centurio seals?

>>381229274

Ofc, they're making the move to make DRG stand on its own two feet for once, but they didn't really do a complete job of it.

It's not as if DRG was an especially strong class kit-wise to begin with. If not for it's piercing debuff, it would have been dropped even in 3.x because Litany isn't as big as you'd think it is. DRG solo in 3.4 basically tied NIN, the oft thought as weakest melee, in terms of damage thanks to the shittiness of Alexander Gear while NIN had the better debuff by far. The only reason DRG existed was because of MCH/BRD being insanely powerful. They should have done more beyond just adding a few more red geirskoguls, and not having it take a minute+ for their burst to truly start up. Susano Ex enters giant sword phase at like 1:20 or something.

noct ast needs stronger shields to compensate for the fact that they don't get free regen from fairy to put them on par with other healers in dungeons

but in 8-man situations, SCH is now almost useless outside of chain strategem bot. Noct AST+WHM will likely be a common setup.

>>381232239
Noct ast doesn't need shields that much stronger, nor does it need potencies that strong. The advantage if noct is that it can mitigate on demand, the advantage of adloquim is supposed to be the crit bonus.

As it stands noct has all of its benefits from being cheap to cast, while also being instant and yet it is far stronger than adloquim and critloquim. 130% shields were fine, the passive on the sects is retarded, they can just up the potency of noct benefic to 250. Thats not balanced at all. Ast also just got a major boost to their overal healing ability with new cards that heal and also earthly star.

If you think lacking a regen is that unfair when you can already trivialize any tankbuster, then i dont know what to tell you. I do agree that earthly star could use a sect effect.
