Suggestions: Quality of Life Stuff and other suggestions

[Alhanelem]

I think you are simply arguing for the sake of arguing.

You can think what you like, but that doesn't make it true.

Have you looked at the Urganites in Ceizak and Yahse?

Urganites aren't the only mobs you can gain skill on.

Seems better to me, if anything, to have us spend less time on skillups overall than make special mobs that are easy to skill on.

The posters request (make a special mob that doesn't do the things it normally does for easy skill ups) is not a reaosnable approach to this- there is a difference between quality-of-life improvements and trivializing the game. If for some reason you absolutely can not gain skills on some other mob, they could just as easily increase the number of spawns of the mobs people already use.

Alternatively, they could offer free server transfers off overcrowded servers.

Well, yes. Though this would be far from the only reason for that lol.

Yeah but it would solve 90% of the problems and suggestions that people post here.

Lower Dual Wield 3 on Dancer from 60 to 45-52 inline with Ninja so it can be obtained as subjob.

[Catmato]

Please grant all jobs Dual Wield 0 at level 1 with no delay reduction (or even negative delay reduction) to open up a significant number of subjob options.

Smarter AI from the trusts would be nice. For instance I hate having Sylvie in my party with Koru-Moru because she will cast haste 1 which makes Koru-Moru think it's okay not to overwrite that with haste 2. Another small gripe is Ulmia and Joachim spamming ballad when I am missing 3 MP on DRK when I just want their haste or Koru-Moru refreshing Monberaux. And for a luxury wish list item; a customizable menu that allows you to disable certain abilities on trust npcs so they use the abilities that you want them to. That would make the handful of them that are useful but have a small flaw a little less frustrating to use as well as perhaps open up some more options for some of the ones that are nearly useless because of one or two things they do (or don't do) that spoil what they are good at. And for the love of god let them finish a cure cast if the battle ends before it goes off.

Trusts are supposed to be a little dumb, I think, to make it more enticing to try to form parties with players instead, but honestly... I don't think Sylvie has Dunna or Idris, Qultada doesn't seem to use Barateria Ring or Regal Necklace, Joachim and Ulmia don't even have a Blurred Harp or a Moonbow Whistle - support trusts are severely kneecapped already just by not having crucial gear, they don't need to be dumb too.

Just being able to set very basic tactics like "don't interrupt my skillchains" and "the corsair needs Haste, not Flurry" would make them a lot less painful to use, in those situations where it's not practical to pack a real party.

(That said, you can avoid Koru-Moru's irritating... everything... by using Arciela instead if you just need Haste II; she'll use it on you regardless of job and will overwrite basic Haste if necessary.)

I agree that they don't need to be dumb on top of their other handicaps. They also do not scale well to higher 119 tiers and don't scale at all with master levels. Having them a little less yell-at-the-screen worthy I think is the last they can do.

Also thanks for the tip about Arciela.
