Why complain about balance - recent job changes.

We have nine more levels to go before everyone's jobs are complete. Please stop saying 'oh my class is now useless because you are obviously neglecting it on purpose because you dont know how to balance classes if your lives depended on it'. Suggestions are ok, but some of you are laying it on a bit thick lol, a little over dramatic (especially the people who main RDM).

I'm pretty sure the balance at level 99 is going to be a lot better than the balance at 90... people seriously need to be patient, this game isn't going anywhere any time soon and I'm sure the devs (minus the UI team) all have half a brain and can see where they want to take the jobs of Vana'Diel.

You have too much blind faith.

Take for example spirits. We had 75 as cap for years, and these were the most unbalanced (in a negative way) thing in the game and nothing was done about it. Believing that SE magically will fix them for their level 99 cap release would be nothing but insanity incarnated.

I'm pretty sure jobs like DRK or PLD have no worries though. I'm sure those will automatically solve themselves up to 99. It isn't like anything is broken there, they just aren't best in Abyssea.

This is the part where the entire FFXI community completely forgot that spirits are THE most essential part of a well played SMN. Thanks Mala for being the SMN advocate for the FFXI community! I think I see a hordecore junior!

What I understand from the conversations on this forum is the usefulness of jobs cycle through the different areas. Also, I have come to understand that it is acceptable to table the job you are best at in favor of whats needed (even if you are mediocre on the one you are playing). So for everyone feeling useless at the moment it's ok. Your time will come. Meanwhile, relax and take one for the team.

He learned from kiba

Jobs were not balanced at 75.
Jobs will not be balanced at 99.

Blind faith wont change that.

Wow u guys are all such negative nancys :P

Nah, the term is realistic.

Why complain about balance? So SE has some idea of what needs to change as we advance those 9 more levels. If we don't speak up, they won't have a dang clue what to do.

Really, why do you have to ask?

Why make a thread about this? It's not even the end of the month yet. I'm pretty sure people will stop wanting the jobs to be balanced at the end of the month.
