As for the empy thing its all a matter of resources. It takes a large amount of resources IE: Time, People, Money, to complete any relic/mythic/empyrean weapon. If someone bought 200M from rmt then they could just flat out buy a relic, or they could get a LS full of people to farm for his weapon, or small group of people to take longer farming, or farm gil and buy currency, or all the above to get a relic. Either way it takes these resources to build. Empy's take 50X, 50Y, and 75Z to get to level 90 and to get X, Y, Z you need to farm. If you had a LS full of dedicated people you could in fact get a weapon done in a week, but if you go with less its gonna take longer. Now if you want to sit there and say empy are easiest and mythic are hardest to get, no one is gonna argue with you, but your trying to say that everyone has empy's because they are super easy to get yet A.) I only have the 1, not one for all my 90+ jobs which I would if they were as easy as you claim, B.) Everyone in the game would have at least one which also isn't the case. These weapons take quite a bit of resources to make, yes they are easy compared to relics but they are the same tier, and I was talking about all 3 of them so stop selectively choosing my words and fixing them to your liking.
I love how you mention nothing about my point of "Consumes TP for more damage sounds like a WS." It just validates that you got nothing. Before you bring up your mp/magic comment, MP attack was originally an ability in FFIX, when in doubt look for ideas in the other games because after all, SE gets most of their ideas from the past FF games.
So you brought up the change in management, I got news for you. The guy who took over from Sir nerfs-a-lot is now in charge of FFXIV and the guy who came up with abyssea is in charge of FFXI. Did you know that? Yes I too keep up with things that SE does, and one thing I've noticed is that even tho war is incredibly overpowered, instead of bringing the DD's left behind up and leaving war where it is for now, they keep giving it more power. That tells me that they have a serious issue when it comes to balance, and remember what event brought out most of this imbalance, Abyssea, which I do like but hey its very unbalanced and the guy that created it is making the rest of our content. Ya you can have faith all you want but the rest of us are gonna speak our minds about what he thinks we want, and if you wanna see how good he is at guessing right check the thf forum out.
Drain is not a nuke it and aspir are the original absorb spells. Thats what they do, they are designed to absorb hp or mp from the target and give it to you, side effect includes hp/mp damage. To claim they are nukes is ignorant on magic in general. Can you do decent damage, sure if the moon aligns right and you have all the right gear, but how does it compare to actually nukes.........doesn't even come close. I love how once again you ignore what I said to try and discredit me, check #6 again I said "Now if they made DRK specific nukes then you'd have a point but at this time your point remains invalid." Also Mab doesn't effect drain so why should this new ability, after all they were looking at specifically elemental nukes, so your comment about super drains is just your assumption. Btw if drain actually did do real damage it would say Drain does x damage and you gain x hit points, kinda like when you have blood weapon on and the side effect is absorbs hp.
If you want to go on praising the new abilities then go for it, just remember your pretty much all alone. I do find it funny that the only comment with any context came at the end here, yes we do have our own ele ws's, and right now they suck, but they might be getting a boost come next update IE: SE is doing several modifications to ws's, not the DRK update.
P.S. just because you hang out with people who use that slang doesn't mean that I do, and likewise others. It takes alot for something to became a universally accepted slang like owned/pwned or woot/w00t, and lets face it, boof or screet ain't gonna make it.
