Now, why is it all of a sudden these Weapons Skills are overpowered in your eyes that they have to be reduced? In the same breath, why the fuck isn't Samurai's Weapon Skills and TP Bonuses getting nerfed? If you are not going to do anything about how overpowered SAM is becoming, leave Ukko and Victory Smite alone, you hypocrites. As I've said before on these forums, this is -NOT- "balance."
Current leadership (FFXIV failure Tanaka) doesn't like what the previous guys (Abyssea win team) did. They are now setting about rolling back the changes. Expect all Emp's to be nerfed, all new JA's to be nerfed, and all useful gear to be nerfed.
They want it like it was at 75, where they have to invest minimum effort into development. Unfortunately for them, that won't work with human behavior being the way it is. Taking something away from someone is considered an aggressive action and the human subconscious will treat it like such. Players won't pay money for a company to hurt them.
You want feedback? Here it is. Don't do it, it's a bad idea. Why do you want to do this? Who asked for this? I bet it wasn't people that put in the time and effort to get Vere and Ukons. People enjoy WAR now, why do you want to ruin it for them? First Restraint, now this? And as for MNK, you give them 1 good WS, and now you want to take it away? Shijin Spiral is crap, the modifiers on Asuran are WAY too low, why can't you let people enjoy the game? Put more stuff into the game, if people feel DRG or DRK is underpowered compared to WAR and MNK, then BUFF THOSE JOBS, don't take stuff away from people that worked to get emp weapons.
I hope this doesnt get past the testing server. It's really gonna be a shame if they go through with it.
For the devs:
"Please stop taking the enjoyment away, you guys keep doing it time and time again, and call it 'balance', and the end result is more and more people will leave the game."
