General complaint thread

I don't care how you play, as long as you perform your core duties.
Which is make the group you go with perform better.

If you neglect those because you find it more important to play with your fleuret, you are detrimental to the team.

The 0.1% extra damage you bring is not going to compensate for the lack of output by real dds that aren't buffed.

So in short, having fun is fine but remember where your job's priorities lie.

But you don't decide another player's priorities for them Shirai. They do. And as I said, if you don't like how a certain person plays their class, then don't play with them. It's that simple.

And adopting this dismissive and exaggerated attitude toward Red Mage melee by saying they only bring 0.1% extra damage does no one any good. It also helps contribute to the toxic atmosphere that some on this forum - such as that Zek guy - are dealing with. Because no matter what you may think, Red Mage are capable melee and can fill a DD role. I know this because I've seen it with my own two eyes. So trust me, they can do a lot more than play with their fleuret. They can actually kill things with it too.

Truth is Red Mage has a very broad range of abilities and are capable of playing effectively in many different ways. They are not limited to just being a haste/refresh bot for you and your party members. And no one is forcing you to play with Red Mages who melee anyway. So I would ask you to stop mocking them. It's both unnecessary and unwarranted.
