Summoner in Colonization Reives = Broken

[Manux]

as of now there nothing to be done as there are jobs out there that have there ups and down side people have forgotten that this all so can be done in campaign battle. you got other jobs that that can do 7k+ ws damage sam/mnk/drk.

Reives is for Smn
dynamis currency is for Bst

When I do Reives on my pink DNC, big boys come along and kill the mob that I've been fighting for 5 mins and got down to 90%HP. Thus meaning I don't get as many points. Can we make it so that noone else can touch my mob please so I can get more points?

An inaccurate analogy. If your pink DNC isn't well geared that's a direct result as to the effort you have put into it's gear. No matter how much I put into any other support class it will never have the ability to hit all members outside of a party with AoE's. This is a unique advantage given to one job in one event.

Your pink DNC is also a support job / light DD hybrid, not a pure DD so you should be using your TP to heal and debuff. I would also suggest that anyone using curor bought abyssea gear move onto Empy gear or VW gear instead of trying to skip to the end. Especially if it takes you 5 minutes to shave off 10% of an enemies HP.

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSHHH!

What a terrible suggestion - you'd ruin smn for every event cause you are too lazy to do more than 1 action in rieves? Get a life. Being able to buff outside of party is one of the only things smn has going for it. Nerfing that would make WoE even more terrible than it already is.

Maybe they should nerf whm so it can't cure anyone outside of party with their native spells, like BLU mage. Why should whm be able to cure outside party when BLU can't?

Do you see what a dumb argument that is?

I'd like to see more jobs be able to buff outside party (COR and BRD and GEO and BLU) not less

SMN is good at something? By Altana! Red alert! AWOOOOGAH! AWOOOGAH! This is NOT a drill! Emergency maintenance! Patch it NOW! GO GO GO! Let's move people! Let's MOVE!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SMN is my only job I care about. Revies have been super fun for me. Don't nerf SMN at least without giving us something else to do. I dunno like maybe scale our BP:wards past lvl 75?

[Manux]

kind of pointless nerfing it if they do it I would like to see bst get nerf since its the only job that can solo well in dynamis and also a lot of players chosen bst for that reason. Now they will have to pick smn for Colonization Reives i guess it make sense.

SMN has just as many options as WHM, get some DA pieces and wear a couple of accuracy rings, maybe chew on some sushi and beat roots while you spam buffs and cures. Stop acting like you have no options other than spamming Wards.

This ftw.

[Malphius]

From a SMN's perspective you're stealing all their Bayld with your Curaga's. Obviously, the more people you have the less Bayld everyone is going to get overall.

Curaga only hits the party a WHM is in. Just like with my proposal pets would only hit party members with their AoE buffs.

Sounds good to me, I hate nerfs like you do man. It just discourages me when I see people complaining that "one job can't do one thing another job can and here is the reason it should get nerfed" because my job is better, for, sorry, what reasons?

This game is fairly unique in the fashion you can have multiple jobs leveled on the same character. It's pretty cool that we can so easily share a lot of our gear with similar jobs. I say similar loosely, keep some originality, I'm all for fair, but there needs to be some kind of line.

Again it's been about removing the special ability that SMN's get with their BP's in this event. Because it's an event change it would also impact BST. Try to understand that the SMN job would not be nerfed. Nor would BST. This event actually increases their ability several times fold while leaving everyone else out.

How would SMN or BST respond if in abyssea every one could get atmas or curror buffs but them or in VW that anyone could use atmicite but them? Given the attitude on this board to the things i've said, I expect it would be far worse than mine. I would see several "I'm quitting" posts. I'm not salty about it because I can come on anything but I do think it needs addressed as it provides an unbalanced event. This isn't like Campaign or WoE because those are "open" battle fields. Reives is quite compressed and tight on space. So either they can open up the battle area way more than it already is, or they need to change something else with the way the event plays.

No really, just stop. You seriously are the only person here that is complaining about this. Everyone else is just fine with the way pet AoEs work. Yes SMN is one of my main jobs, and no I have not been on it since SoA came out.

This has been around since Campaign came out years ago, and if it hasn't been changed in all that time, then it must be working as intended. The way you sound, it's like you're standing in a corner or something and just spamming Curaga and buffs. Do you even go to the root/rock and start hitting it? A few nights ago I went out with a group as BRD/DNC, did 3 songs (double March and a Ballad on a SMN), used Curing/Divine Waltz occasionally when I saw HP bars drop, and just whacked the rocks around, and sometimes an occasional mob, and still got close to 500 EXP/Bayld per evaluation.

Point is, there is more to do then just your "natural" job's role. Start thinking outside the box.

(I do apologize if this does sound harsh, I just woke up from a nap and kinda irritated, but I felt I just had to express my opinion on this).
