Please don't nerf beastmaster

BST is broke as f*ck right now, especially if you combine them with a COR and GEO. 12~14K ability spam with base stats higher then fully geared 119 melee's.

Meanwhile on sam, I'm pumping out 10-20k Fudos every 2 seconds against the same mob with nonstop 20k + light chains in between them and black mages are magic bursting limitless 30k tier II spells off it non-stop. Thieves and dancers are still pumping out 30k Dark skillchains and rangers and summoners aren't having any problems killing things hate / risk free. Do you even play this game? Seriously...

It would be like if SAM could do 12~14K fudo's...

They can, but much faster / more often than a Pet can.

instantly refill it's HP

"Cure" says HI! Reward is on a long timer.

whenever it dies

Again, note the timer: http://ffxiclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Call_Beast

and has 30~50% DT.

You can easily reach 50% DT- on every job in the game.

This wouldn't be a big issue except with Ready being a 30s base, and BST being able to lower it further, it turns into a situation where two or more BST's can just spam TP moves non-stop and murder whatever they are fighting

So like every other DD in the game except on a longer timer?....

all while they stand safely in the back eating cookies and chilling.

So just like summoner, RNG and every mage job in the game pretty much?...

And BST requiring to little skill is precisely the reason you see so many of them monopolizing everything.

Those people you see beating meaningful content on BST have millions, if not hundreds of millions in gear. The DT- stat on that acro / taeon set comes from Dusk orbs, which are selling for roughly 8 mil a stack on my server and you're lucky if you get the max on one piece per stack. Realistic estimate, you're looking at 20-40 mil worth of stones to get DT-4% on all 5 pieces just for your TP set. You also need a magic attack set and an attack / ready set if you want to be any good.

Well put Bazookatooth, thank you it needed to be said.

This is seriously just Rudra's Storm all over again.

"WAH THIS JOB IS DOING GOOD I DON'T LIKE IT"

"Uh, you do realize that it's not just this job, it's this job using JAs and buffed by this other job and this third job?"

"WAH MATH IS HARD WHAT DO YOU MEAN SPIKE DAMAGE IS A THING"

[machini]

I mean, I was fighting Hurkan earlier. I was doing nearly non-stop self five step double darknesses, and every minute and a half was closing with that second darkness for 99999 damage. If Hurkan has roughly 1.25 million HP, which I think is what he has, based on how quickly I'm killing him I should be doing roughly 4kDPS.

Do *I* need to be nerfed?

I mean, just ignore the fact I had four trusts buffing me.
And I'm a mythic DNC keeping AM3 up.
At attack speed cap.
With a SaveTP+400 Reive weapon offhand
With Ionis on for 100 more SaveTP.
And otherwise I have just about the best possible equipment in the game I could possibly have for DNC.

So no, I don't need to be nerfed. Because it takes four trusts and a shit ton of expensive and/or hard to get gear for me to be able to put out that level of damage.

But people don't see that. They don't think about the fact that I have 10/+ buffs on me, gear specifically tailored to doing the most damage in that specific context (a WKR) as possible.

All they see is the frilly little lace-wearing "shit job" player is doing insanely high damage. I was outthreating a goddamn mythic SAM the other day in a WKR.

I really hate to say this, but what people need to start being told is "git gud". Seriously. People have no idea how the game mechanics work, have no idea how to gear, they just say "I'm a SAM and I'm a DD job and a super buffed optimally built gear set wearing BST is doing more damage than I am".

[machini]

Math is off a bit for HP, I think. I still manage to kill Hurkan in about ten minutes.

[dasva]

Are the sams getting mad that some job is doing almost as much dmg as they do unbuffed again?

[Zarchery]

So it's BST time to shine I guess? Every job gets some brief time in the limelight it seems.

[Olor]

All of these arguments won't matter in the least. It has already been decided in the Japanese forums. Whatever we say here does not matter.

This is probably true and it makes me really angry.

[scaevola]

stuff about supergeared jobs being good

I mean, you're not wrong, but you get that the bar for BSTs doing the kind of stuff they are is waaaaaaay lower than this, right? Some passable Pet: MAB augs, charmer's merlin, ASA pants?

You know that isn't true.
