All I'm trying to point out is that THF's aren't at the bottom of the barrel when it comes to jobs that are currently needed and desired.
I'm sure you guys have your issues but at the end of the day it seems that THF's are in a much better position viability wise. -
08-03-2011, 04:25 AMKarbuncleI agree we're definitely not bottom of the barrel. I also agree other jobs need a lot of adjustments. I also agree THF is pretty well off with TH!Quote:

SE, please, just hear me out. There are three very easy fixes that can be made to pet AI that can solve so much.
1. Avatars should not auto-attack sleeping mobs.
2. Avatars should be able to be told what to attack from a further distance.
3. When an Avatar uses a BP on a mob and it does before the BP can go off, reset the BP timer.
That's all I'm asking. -
08-03-2011, 06:01 AMKorpgThis again? Didn't people tell you why this particular idea would hurt SMNs the most? Why not instead of asking SE to take the ability to kite away from SMN....oh wait, you just did.Quote:

Samurai - Round 2
As we couldn’t get responses to all of the questions and feedback about samurai adjustments, here are the ones that we couldn’t fit in the first post.
As a result of exploring this from many angles, we need to put off the elimination of this penalty. Since the basic stats of Hasso/Seigan are really high, we plan on looking into enhancing the convenience of these abilities through merit points and/or equipment, more than heading in a direction where we would support more spells casting. Due to the fact that these are abilities with long effect durations, please understand that you can’t really compare these abilities side-by-side to the abilities that elicit a strong effect but have a short duration/special requirements.Quote:
Get rid of the spell casting penalty while under the effects of Hasso/Seigan.
We balanced Third Eye to be special for single target attacks allowing the possibility to evade single target abilities/attacks multiple times and have rendered it powerless against AoE attacks.Quote:
Make it so the effect of Third Eye doesn’t get stripped by AoE attacks.
In the case of weapon skills that do not have “damage varies with TP” or “ignores enemy’s defense, amount ignored varies with TP” it has become necessary to enhance the attack power or adjust them in some way so it they deal steady damage. Tachi: Yukikaze, Tachi: Gekko, and Tachi: Kasha are weapon skills that ignore defense, thus it has become easier to deal steady damage with them compared to other weapon skills.Quote:
Increase the damage of weapon skills against high level enemies.
In the case of monsters that have damage resistance, all jobs are in the same boat, so we will deal with this theme separately.
The potential skill chain damage is not low for samurais that use the job ability “Sengikori” paired with the skill chain bonus job trait, however, we are aware that you can’t get the most out of these stats against high level monsters since skillchain damage is easily resisted, so we plan on fixing this aspect.Quote:
Increase skillchain damage.
Through constant weapon skills you would be able to overwrite the effect and essentially lock an enemy completely, so we are thinking it would be necessary to explore an alternative route such as an ability with a recast timer or maybe even just tone down the effect a bit.Quote:
Add weapon skills with Additional Effect: Amnesia and Additional Effect: Terror.
Using weapon skills and relying on TP is the best part and core aspect of samurai. This being said we will be looking into a variety of things.Quote:
Add a job trait or ability that gives conserve TP/save TP and/or regain.
This is an interesting idea, but there would be a great deal to look into, almost as much as if we were to add another job, so implementing this right now would be difficult.Quote:
I want to dual wield a great katana and a katana.
It might be possible to add samurai to the jobs able to wield katanas as well as add native katana skill to samurais, but if we don't add any advantages for samurai there wouldn’t be a strong effect.
We will take this into consideration for ability ideas!Quote:
What about adding a “Iai” ability (the act of drawing your sword in quick motion)?
