What do you tell a white mage, who's a main white mage when they look at endgame weapons. They spend the hours helping every melee build empys and relics and seeing their output go through the roof. Then you hand them the empy staff and go here go stand in the corner with this laughable shiny. Then you ok well maybe a Mjollnir will be better but oh wait its another melee weapon for a WHM for crying out loud. SE what the hell do you think you're doing expecting a white mage to melee.

Wait a moment, this has already gotten out of hand.

1) Being WHM main, my first reaction upon looking at endgame weapons is "Huh, that'll speed up the stuff I do solo. And maybe some of the stuff I couldn't do solo before, I can now."

2) WHM can't equip Empy staff. Empy club... is kind of a waste of effort that actually would be better spent on a Mjollnir.

3) What do you mean "what the hell do you think you're doing expecting a WHM to melee"? How else are we going to get things killed when nobody else wants to do it? Nuke it? Riiiiiiiiiiight. We're going to melee it. We're going to bust out haste gear (since we get crap for accuracy gear, we might as well speed up the hits we are getting), throw on a pair of hammers, and beat the everloving crap out of it. We're going to unleash a ridiculous hellspawn composed of blunt damage and critical hits that other one-handed weapon users only dream of being able to control, because that's what we do.

And before you say "well, just do it on another job": congratulations, the point is way the hell off in the distance and you missed it entirely. We do it this way because it's an accomplishment doing things the hard way. Especially when people are like "there's no way you can do that, you're only a WHM".

That's right. I'm only a WHM. And I destroy lesser beings, like the naysayers, for a living.

I misspoke on the staff, I did mean club thank you for the correction. I am not going to get into the argument of melee whm being the intended role for a healing class, there have been melee rdm's for years who cant be convinced otherwise, and its probably the same reason people level pup instead of monk. You're on an MMO, so soloing doesnt register idk its a free world have fun but they make RPG's single player and you can avoid the monthly subscription fee! Secondly you're on an MMO that lets you play multiple jobs on a single character without any penalty there are plenty of other complicated non heavy dd jobs that you can have a difficult job soloing on that are actually melee jobs! Thirdly meleeing on a healing class just to make the game harder sounds like you need a new game to play. For the rest of us with friends and not so masochistic tendencies whm is a healing class only. So for every whm playing their class as intended there's only one option. Out of hand is when you assumed whm was a melee job. I pray you're a troll, if not God bless and play you're own way Naturebeckles needs friends too!

I've been working on a Mythic for over a year now. I'm at about 15k Alex, Chariot wins, Odin win and only 1/3 beastmen wins. I still need to find a static to work on Inchor... but I personally think that the effort is worth the reward. When I'm the only SMN on Lakshmi holding a Nirvana, it'll be nothin but envy. I'd trade 8 Empy weapons for the chance to own Nirvana.

I want to make a Nirvana too eventually..but I am waiting to see what SE does with it. Also I have seen a few Nirvana's on Lakshmi. The stats on the 95 are amazing Filloux (sp?) has one.
