Job Adjustments for the Next Version Update

[Okipuit]

Just to let you all know, we'll be adding wyvern enhancement stats to all of the equipment and weapons that were added during the March 27th version update, as well as the equipment and weapons that will be added in the future. While there is currently a lack of pet enhancement stats on the Delve gear, we will be making adjustments to add these stats.

That's nice. Drg is the pet job whose pet matters the least. What about the rest of us pet jobs who actually need our pet to function at all?

What if we already bought for example a brethren axe for bst?

Do we need to scrap it and start over?

(I'm assuming this would be the case)

Just wondering what happened to being in the next version update myself. I seriously want that rune coat and some good merits to spend points on would rock.

I want to see GEO actually get some love for its buffing capabilities as well

Yes, but that means any PUP that doesn't have an alternator is broken and worthless until they get one. Their job does not function. No matter what you do, your puppet cannot hit delve enemies even with 3 thunder maneuvers and accuracy attachments. But then you get an alternator, your puppet get 45 more accuracy and it works again. But you can't even play the job, because it cannot do what it was designed to, until you get an item. There's no way for you to, for instance, get an alternator, AS a PUP that needs the alternator.

On the other hand, a WAR, or a SAM that hasn't got a Delve item yet is still fully capable of doing delve. You cannot fix a job with items, unless you're given those items for unlocking the job.

Ehh, pretty much every DD in Delve sucks until they have Delve equips, tbh. For many people, their only solution is to bring a support job like BRD, for which their gear matters far less.

This is not a PUP-specific issue.

Well, SAM doesn't even notice that the enemies have increased evasion because Zanshin cancels it out. But Sam has always been SE's overpowered favorite child.

It is most definitely a pet job issue, though. The other jobs kind of suck so they bring a BRD, whose songs fix the problem. The songs that don't hit pets, and thus don't fix the problem for pet jobs.

Which just greater enforces the need to directly adjust the pets...as in not binding it to gear.

Whether it's better to bind that to the players stats or directly adjust the pet's baseline states can be open to debate I guess. But the point is NOT requiring one to equip an item to make the pet scale to where it should be by default.

Indeed. I've never been one for the "fix classes through gear" approach the developers took to since the TAU days. Pet design is clearly flawed and has been for years. A more in-depth fix is needed across all jobs, because even I realize that Pet: Stat gear is a band-aid the devs attempted to sneak in as a carrot on a stick for pet jobs.
