Job Master Gift (2100 JP)

[Genoxd]

Yeah the whole gifts aren't must haves boat left at like 100 jp mark for a lot of jobs

Yup, new spells are something I would say is a requirement to play a job. T6 spells are just as required as tiers 1 through 5.

Personally I wish the job master stars were at least unique per job instead of the same for all.

We have no plans to adjust any of the Gifts. Gifts aren't intended to be something players must have, instead the development team planned them as slight enhancements.

Can we get an explanation for why the final Gift has 1/4th the effect of a temporary item that costs 3,000 silt? There's a big difference between slight enhancement and practically useless.

I agree and can say with 100% certainty that many players feel the gifts provided by 100, 550 and 1200 job points are necessary in gameplay.

Gifts were not intended to be something players need to have when they were first created. Once you came up with the 100 JP category and beyond, they 100% became necessary to play that job. I would say we need some better 2100 gift

A lot of these "slight enhancements" are anything but slight.

As much as I wish that were true, due to the nature of job Gifts, the community is making it a requirement in order for X job to participate in certain events. It's so sad.

That's because some Job gifts are completely NOT "slight adjustments", but job changers.
I.e. they change the way that certain job is played and/or contributes to group play. As such, they become "requirements".
Not sure if they are failing to see this or if they just refuse to acknowledge so that they don't have to feel "forced" to address it. Bit too late to fix it anyway, there's nothing you can do about it honestly, and it's not like Devs can do miracles, they're only human.

I was very surprised and even shocked by the official response here.

The 2100 JP gift is mediocre compared to the progression of 100, 550 and 1200 JP gifts. To call them slight enhancements, when many gifts augment the job in unprecedented ways...I feel like I'm being patronized by a bully.

The 2100 gifts should follow the same progression as previous gifts and be an impactful, meaningful change to the job. (like BLU, BST, RDM, SCH, BLM gifts for example). Let's not also forget that MNK and DNC gifts actually hurt the jobs.

I just don't know what to make of this. I really am at a loss for words here.

Pup is in both boats. The gifts help the job like crazy with additional set points....but hurt anyone who has a mythic. All of the martial artis JP and gifts are just a slap in the face for mythic users who just have to accept the TP loss per hit, as they have no way of 'just equipping less martial arts' as the mythic alone puts us at the cap.

This. Over and over.

You know what would have been a good master gift? Being able to max out all your job specific merits.
