[dev1135] Beastmaster 2-Hour Ability Comments After Testing.

[Xilk]

This ability shouldn't be "fixed" or "sent back to the drawing board". It should be put to sleep, so that the dev team can restore HP and get a reraise effect.

I hope the dev's don't start cannibalizing their pets...

Here is a quick fix i think would be good for bst 2 hr. Why not make it where when you use it the pet disappears but in its place either a HNM or NM type from the same family appears gives you some buffs and damage based off of there tp moves. Example would be like CC. When used she will disappear and be replaced by a huge crab that does scissior guard on you and then lets say bubble shower on the mob then disappears. That way will kind of keep the way they want to go and I as a bst wouldnt feel so bad about using it.

To put this in perspective, this ability is kinda like giving pld a new 2hr that restores them to full, removes status effects and gives them reraise, and in exchange, encumbers their shield slot for 5 minutes. Yep. It's just that good.

So instead of boosting power to our tanks (pets- charmed or jug doesn't matter) as beast master it will just do like dragoon does and give us boost and help us? I think this might be more of a nerf then a help but only time will tell and yes that is my opinion on this, sorry if I misread it but that is what it sounded like to me.

Here you go Devs... you can have this one for free:

Job Ability
Primal Surge - Recast: 2:00:00, Duration: 0:30
While under the effect of Primal Surge, pet TP gain will increase dramatically, Sic/Ready commands will have a 0 second recast, and Ready commands will not require charges.

Basically, it would allow you to get 3-4 Ready commands off in a row. Being able to do this once every 2hrs is not overpowered AT ALL and would be a much better "emergency" 2hr than cannibalizing your pet for a damn reraise.

Awe, I think Blizzard just patented your original idea. Its to bad we get nothing but shit this whole year, thanks devs.

I am sure its been said, and I know every one here has thought that this pitiful so-called "2 hour" and wild run were drafted as one single JA. When used, the jug gets the hp regen and w/e haste for 5min. then poofs... and this "game changing" 2H ja would grant the said buffs to the Jugmaster. but I'm sure some lazy fuck or asshole said "No,No,No, we can milk this and save a years worth of development costs". I hope this is the case, if not your par is pathetic.

that would be more situationally useful, its more like Meikyou shisui for pet. which I suggested once also, but I would prefer if we could skillchain w/ it.

Totally agree with many of the posters here, this new 2 hours really really suck and one of the WORSE thing ever. Somebody there in the team does not like beastmaster apparently.

[Calamity]

I've wracked my brain trying to think of a use for this ability, and the result I came up with is: If you can actually come up with a way for this ability to be useful, odds are, you're playing the job wrong. Seriously, I really tried. I can't come up with any possible use for this ability that doesn't have a better alternative. And besides that, even if theoretically I could come up with a reason why I might need to sacrifice my pet for a sudden hp restore, odds are I'm fighting something strong enough that I already used familiar and prepped myself with reraise.

[Mayoyama]

Really need to get rid of this and design something better, this is terrible
