Job Adjustments manifesto Discussion

Then I tried to delete it but

But you added some juicy information on what the team was thinking when they produced the video. You can't delete that! D:

Onward to my comment, if nobody else replies in between now and the time I finally hit the send button... I've already got to see three posts in between now and the original comment I was posting:

We are still working out all the details, but we are planning to make it similar to the -ja-type BLM spells where the damage multiplies with each cast, along with the spell dealing initial damage as well as DoT. The DoT is the main attraction of this spell, so we wanted to show you how the HP gets lower and lower after the initial hit, however, no matter what we tried we it turned out to be too low-key and decided to go with this instead.

Does this count as a fifth update for Scholar, or is it still part of the forth?

I don't think that WAR is going to get one because nobody has been asking for anything.

I recently checked the WAR forum, and besides a thread suggesting that WAR should get access to all non-ranged WS, I didn't really see and suggestions, and there were very few questions. Like Warrior, Black Mage also has a lot of job security, especially since they already got word of Meteor and Comet, and they're forums is mostly asking for bigger spells. (If any class has priorities, I would have to say it is Black Mage. I love you guys.) I really don't see either of these classes losing any sleep over some other class overshadowing them, particularly if, I dunno, they lost exclusivity on one spell or ability.

This could be a reason for a lack of Q&A for either of them. That said, I'd still like to see some more plans for these jobs. There is also a pretty lengthy list of suggestions, questions, and even demands from White Mage. And while I'm very happy to see new updates for any job, I'd like to know more about SE's designs for the remaining ones.

On the contrary I made a thread on the black mage forums for questions from the communty have about the black mage job. It wasn't very popular but I hope the devs saw it. In my opinion it has alot of good questions and im sure many would like to have them answered.

Mostly. I'm sorry if I seemingly ignored your post (I saw and read it before posting my post), but there were more comments in the threads about nukes. That said, I said, and I still say that Black Mage should get some answers too.

How long until there is a translation correction from Merton to Meltdown?

[Karbuncle]

Probably couldn't use Meltdown because its a TP move used by Dolls?

I guess it could work though, i was just listing a possible reasoning for the name.

It appears that the current in-development name for the spell previously known as "Merton" is now "Kaustra."

Wait, Metron is now Kaustra?

Boo. Huge disappointment. I hit Like just so I could hit Unlike.

Son of a Submariner! I was looking forward to being able to cast Merton!

We all were. I'll probably still call it merton for a while heh.
