[dev1064] Job Adjustments: Weapon Skills

[loldrg]

Just a suggestion here to the developers, why not give jobs that are native rank A-,A,A+ a 10% WS bonus with the new merit WS. break it in to +2% increases every upgrade(1/5= 2%, 5/5=10% etc or heck go higher, maybe 20% WS bonus.)
That way jobs that can use multiple new merit WS(i.e WAR) dont get the bonus that say a drg would get for using "their" primary weapon. WAR would get a WS bonus to GA, DRG polearm, DRK scythe, etc etc,whm get stheir new awesome WS replacing a lv 60 WS, everyone is happy. the end.

What speaks volumes is that i don't care if this game went back to 04 standards or was easy as pie to play anymore contrary to your beliefs about misery on my end of the playing stick.

I don't like these suggested adjustment. They are not what we were told was going to happen month's ago. And i'm having a hard time finding the word's fun and enjoyment going hand in hand with balance. If this is what getting taking away from us, wth are we getting in return? Wheres the supposed ability to change weapon damage type on the fly? If that idea was abandon can we at least get one of those niffy "At the moment we have no plans to go forward with said idea or we can't find a balance way to implement this idea at this time? I mean why are you just throwing nerfs at us. There's nothing fun or enjoyable about nerf's. It just makes ppl frustrated and upset. Is balance going to pay the bills or a happy player base?

You big fool for every little cry baby war there is a handfull of other jobs happy about it, deal with it move on.

I swear you little morons forget ukonvasara still has odd aftermath, the ws was hugely overpowered you must be blind to not have noticed it.

I'm here posting my displeasure for the nerf. Not to feed little sorry trolls that need someone to argue with them. If you like the nerf so much go make a thread for it and just go away.

How retarded are the people supporting nerfs, instead of arguing for buffs?
When your Camry (the car) gets its ass beat by a Porsche (another car) you don't write a letter to Porsche and say "you design nice cars, I want you to stop it because my peice of shit Camry can't keep up"

what are you kids smoking... where are your parents, srsly I wanna have a word with them, wtf are they teaching you?
You kids need to smarten the hell up, My pension is depending on it God damn it!

Logic you say were is your logic to think that ukons ws was not hugely overpowered. I don't agree with the bloodrage nerf at all that is just stupid but the ws was way way way overpowered and from what people have said its only been nerfed by 9%.

I have been plating FFXI from it was released in NA, i have two caracters, one of which i leveled 9 jobs to include war must agree, nothing much have been done for that job for several updates now. Second i have BST is one of my favorite jobs in this game that job has always been on the crappy list of updates, SE interfuce new pets and new weapon skill, which are useless. i have a EMP axe that was not worth the time unlocking because i could buy an axe on AH the does the same thing. i am not a big fan of the fancy stuff but if you are going to create something that one has to work hard for in the game then least u can do is make it worth the players time. and if u are going to create new pets here is a hint, when you have dipper which is lower that gooey ot he new turtle u interduce in the last update. make the new pet stronger.

Do relics deserve buffs? Yes. Are relics easy to get now? Yes. I hope they do buff and balance them out with Empys. I think they should really rethink Relics/Mythics/Empys and make it so each job has a fair balanced choice in all of them. I've been saying since day 1 SE never thought about mages with they made relics or empyreans. So yeah SE's screwed up and Relics should be reasonably compared to empys and last i checked there were still a few relics that beat empys. Arguing over relics and empys in this thread is not the issue. SE's needed to balance relic/empys/mythics for a while. The real issue here is SE is screwing over the populace in general by lowering the dps we can put out. This isn't going to fix any of the crappy jobs and its not going to make the fights more enjoyable. So what is there to enjoy out of this other than the schadenfreude of it. If you're here getting off on that good for you God bless and enjoy your life whose existence hangs off the misery of a group of people and in the end the collective as a whole. But for those of us who have created a world that is usable post abyssea we do not want to go back to helping gimps who hit macro's get gear in linkshells and SE needs to realize trying to force us back into that is going to force us out of the game. Trying to remove our ability to lowman is not making the game more fun or making people want to play more. This is a no win situation.

Where is your relic then?
