Abyssea: Useful jobs and Useless jobs. Your opinions on why.

[Flunklesnarkin]

Well it is an opinion thread...

I guess i just interpreted the question of usefulness in abyssea to mean doing anything in abyssea...

not just usefulness in a party..


soloing isn't ideal by any means.. but it can be useful to be able to go out and kill NM's or farm up seals / items when others can't be bothered to help ;o

soloing does not help if you can't proc.

the only thing that should be "soloing" is nin/pld

Since when can Stonega IV do 3.2k+ damage? Does the melee not have shell OR an MDT set?

If so, fix that first. Carols later.

yeah I do (and did) question that, I am not an expert on NMs but I do know how useful a good bar set whm is and how big a difference it can make over a WHM that does not care to have such a set.

I am confused here, why would you ever sub pld on nin for any reason? I'm no nin but /dnc and even /whm seem like much better soloing sub options for nin than /pld. Wouldnt /war have the same procs as pld while actually adding something useful (zerk, DA, etc.). What does /pld even add to nin, I have never heard of anyone ever using this sub for nin.
