Its pretty simple.

Yes, and they still changed it. This gear itemization is clearly a mistake.
I don't understand why certain people are content with a class not being able to do their intended rotation... I get...
They have previously adjusted weapon stats multiple times over the years. In fact, they actually did it with the BLM weapon way back in ARR. They've also changed weapon stats in Stormblood. Anyone...
Absolutely - I would agree with that.
I'm not asking them to buff BLM before ultimate (although I think a SMN nerf is needed). I'm asking them to fix the stats of the BLM weapon. That is all...
Bumping this as this severely affects BLM for the upcoming ultimate, putting it at a severe disadvantage compared to other DPS classes. Some other notes:
Unlike other classes that are mostly able...
There's still some QoL that really should be looked at though. Mana tick issues in Umbral ice should not be a thing at all. Other than that, the rest are design issues.
Umbral hearts are a pretty...
No DPS buffing utility is needed. They need to give BLM enough personal DPS to be equal to other DPS that have utility.
+1
I'm really enjoying this content and I hope SE do more
As I said in my post - not as evidence to ban someone, but as an easy way of quickly identify players to investigate further. I mean, its how the Ruin 4 hack and this exploit was discovered publicly...
I'm going to preface this and say your response is very good - both in the actual detail and the actions taken. However, I do have some lingering concerns.
What about the bans for players caught...
How about this one:

Thank you for posting the translation.
To Yoshi-P - Can you apply the same punishments to those players who were caught using:
The Ruin 4 Hack
The Speed Hacks
The Pomander Exploits

Again, please re-read my posts. The rotations for 4.0 were known before it was released. They were all released when a media embargo was lifted. I have not said anything was incorrect.
The testing...
Its half and half. There's certain mechanics that are optimized to maintain uptime as much as possible, but there's also some that don't need much optimization and can simply be done with the...
Ah, the fabled "You disagree with me therefore you are toxic" card.
Its not a malicious answer at all. I'm pointing out that you do not have the experience with the class necessary to talk...
So wait, you've first gone from "Skipping B4 is a DPS loss", and now you are in the camp of "B4 needs to be made so powerful that we get 9 Fire spells in our rotation now instead of 7, and completely...
Until you are actually going to read my posts and discuss things with an open mind, there's absolutely no reason to respond to you further. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about, are...
You can disagree all you want, its a core part of the classes design and is perfectly functional for competent players.
Actually, it depends. If skipping the Blizzard IV allows you to have more Fire IV's over the course of the phase/fight, its a gain.
The issue with that would be our rotation would change as...
More standard Ellie drivel...
That is incorrect. In certain situations its optimal to skip because you only lose one Fire IV cast. You should read up on it.
While you are correct that...

He does say that they turn it off to test at the end, however that is for fight balance...
Blackcat's tool uses logs from actual raiding gameplay. Try again.
Yoshi-P is wrong. Stop taking everything he says at face value and actually look at the facts.
IIRC Its been said a number of times in Liveletters and interviews. Here is a video of it in action:

They then do the DPS calculations for fights...
I work in the industry. I have also previously led a game balance team for another game. They are completely out of touch. The issue stems from no-one at the company playing the game to a decent...
Which would be fair enough if each class had its fair share of times when they are strong and weak, and if every role was represented. But that isn't the case and hasn't been for the DPS roles for a...
