New 2-hour Abilities

[Suteru]

So here's a question, SE: Who do abilities have to be on 2 hour timers anyway? I mean we have abilities that range from 15 seconds to 15 minutes, and then there are no abilities on a cooldown between 15 minutes and 2 hours. Can't you just add these new abilities on a 30 minute timer or something? Or let the cooldown actually vary based on the power of the ability. 30-60 minutes is enough to make these abilities feel special, and not something you just throw out whenever the ability has cooled down.

You mean 20 minutes.

Also COR's will be useless. An extra Phantom Roll, so what? I feel that this ability should be on a much shorter timer. It'll be especially useless after a double (or triple!) bust.

This stuff sounds pretty great. Some of it situational, but nothing here is particularly "bad."

Are you sure you read them all correctly? Alot of them use Enmity as a focus, which has been kinda dead for some time now.

I would suggest reading them again because DRG, for example, got Spirit Link on a 2-hour timer essentially.

And THF got Trick Attack on a 2hr recast

I think i talk for alot of blms ... we just want to force a crit once in a while, (not every 2 hrs though) but a rediculous 15 min timer (meritable) and the ability to force a crit would make ALOT of us happy as to regaining our title of "Mage" Being the red headed step children to parents who love their blu isn't cool but once upon a time if it could die by magic, WE were the ones to be asked to aga it. not so much anymore ; ; I don't mean to hate on the overpowered ness that is blu mage, but f me gang... just admit it's broken and I'll be happy. (or give every mob that the mimic'd spell that was a job ability that takes mp to preform was learned, MP so we can aspir it... that'll make me happy too) but a single 15 min cooldown forcable crit. ... I loooooove being able to break 10k's and see spikes to 14, but when i watch a blue mage do what they do to 20 mobs, and put out more cumalitive dmg with magic than a blm can... somethings wrong. We could/can deal with sch's big heads and their spikes,... doing more dmg than us from time to time, but please restore us to our king poo Nuking place. (keep in mind i'm talking about a real blu mage not some gimpy burnt don't know how to gear for squat on any given spell... I'm talking about the ones that know what they're doing ....unless my blu's are that unique... (they're pretty bad ass i'll give them that ) bottom line, when 6 blu's can do something faster more efficient than 6 of any other job ...... that job is broken. I'm sure I'm on an island here given alot of people seen the greatness that is blu and jumped on the wagon and may feel defensive about this, but... imo blu is broken. or their spell dmg formula is. (I am not certain but I believe charged whisker doesn't suffer from # of mobs it's hitting as much as our aga's ... and that's messed up. We the Black mages object!

I'm sorry, I can't read this. Please use your enter key, differentiate your sentences so that you don't have 6-line-long runons, and make more standard use of commas, rather than ellipsis. I'm not trying to insult you, I'm telling you how to make your post legible so that we can actually understand your opinion.

[Ullysses]

Wow...I honestly feel like SE does not know how to develop a game correctly. We are doing their jobs as developers by telling them what we want and they still can not get it right. As many have stated the majority of these abilities shout NOT be considered two-hour abilities rather 15-20min abilities. It is really not that difficult to do something right when you can take the complaints about the old two hour abilities and use that the make better ones.

[Theytak]

Now see, I was very polite, and offered you an idea of how to edit your post so that it would be legible. It's not a matter of being on a high horse, it's a matter of proper discourse and respect for your fellow reader's eyeballs. Acting like that just defeats the purpose of you posting at all, because it means everyone instantly stops caring and just ignores your existence outright.

I fail to see how your obnoxious response was justified.

Shoot the forceable crit could come with whm bene hate status and I'd still Love S.e. for it. Stop skrewing blms!!!
We have the smallest job ability list, crappiest w.s. save cata ( In the event for whatever reason a blm decides to hit something with a pole *shudders, (and it ain't even that good)), and lol relic (mythic gets a pass per what I've read, I'll let the few who know have their say on that). Job Ability= forcable crit. or a +50 mab 1nce per 20 min ability would do. sommmmmething.... ffs.

Meteor yeahhhhh sch gets kastura /facepalm rdm gets refresh 2 /facepalm and wtf is occult accumen doing on blm? >:/
