Look, people say all the time what suggestions to make PLD more useful. I am giving my own suggestions on how to make the job better. You get one 1 hand people saying make PLD more a DD type, its not meant to be a DD. On the other hand people want hate lock abilities which makes no sense to me. But for those that want more DD output, you have the choice of getting a Relic, Empyrean, Mythic, or WoE weapon to help with hate control along with overall DoT output. Each has its purposes and situations that they are most useful. FFXI is also not FFXI-Abyssea, there is alot more to the game then Abyssea. People are still to this day referring to the game as Abyssea only when Abyssea is a smaller part of the overall game. Take away your Cruor buffs and Atmas and think about what benefits a PLD more, an AH weapon or a legendary weapon?

I'm not here to say I'm right your wrong type of thing, I hate reading those posts. But I am here to say that these things are not hard to make, they are time consuming. Now if you have a decent sized LS and they are cooperative and help each other, you can do Almace in a weekend (camping NMs obviously can be done another time, but you can kill an NM then after for 2 hours). Now people that are in a smaller LS, it might take a few more days or a week if that. Relics do take alot more time and dedication to make, but that aren't hard to do. I have someone in my LS that did dynamis everyday with a WHM and farmed cruor when he was done from exp pts, NMs etc. He did an Aegis from start to finish in 3 weeks. Between using his cruor from Abyssea to NPC items and farming actual currency in dynamis he finished his Aegis. Now I'm not gonna say everyone should do this, or everyone has to do it this way but when I'm saying is there are ways to do relics in a short amount of time. Time and dedication of the individual player is where the reward pays off.

I know that sorta seems off topic but it goes back to my 1st paragraph, where people wanted PLD to have more offensive capabilities. SE made these weapons easy to get. If anything Mythics are way more time consuming over a relic anyday. I feel bad for people even trying to start those nowadays. They are easier to get but require events nobody does anymore (example Einherjar). Trying to keep this post short but that didnt seem to happen. Either way people should not rule out legendary weapons because they are time consuming. They help all jobs, including PLD. Maybe I have too much mindset on people wanting PLD to be their main job instead of a casual job. Either way there are alot of fixes that should be don't but SE will not adjust enmity caps and they have already said they have no plans to adjust that.
