[dev1289] Job Adjustments

[Kensagaku]

This is indeed the case for BST, though it works both ways, so if you switch back to a higher ilvl axe, your pet's hp seems to drop because its maximum went back up, but its current did not. Allows those of us feeling a little risky to do sword + shield (beatific/+1 when we have to get close to reduce damage, for example) and still use charmer's merlin for brief swaps at the cost of never having our pet at full HP. Just try not to start your ready command until after a TP move. :P

I imagine for Nirvana it's similar, but losing those two levels of stats on a BP is actually going to hurt them quite a bit, I imagine.

Most of the SMNs I know, don't use the Nirvana for most things. They use a nuking staff. They might macro it in maybe, but for the most part, it's a straight physical/hybrid BP staff.

Locking BST threads in the BST forum made by BSTs for BSTs while leaving troll posts demanding nerfs unlocked is pretty low SE...

[Malthar]

Yeah, I'm becoming despondent. I'm giving serious thought to cancelling my account and quitting FFXI.

I see one locked thread in the BST forum. Is it just that single thread locked or were there multiple threads deleted that are no longer visible?

Regarding the locked thread, did it really provide any new insights or revelations, or was it just going to be the same posters making the same statements that have already been made in a multitude of existing threads?

Unlike the rest of the board, where people offer up new perspectives all the time rather than talking about the same things? It's not like BSTs have a monopoly on strongly held, often expressed opinions.

It's true that threads are often recycled and restated, but you have to admit that the recent BST-related threads have become particularly angsty and venomous. I don't really have an issue with moderators heading this one off at the pass.

The second one.

Look at what's happened here. Olor made posts in two different threads to complain about the same thing that's already been discussed ad nauseum.

[Jile]

Were running in circles. Quid quaeris alios ad facientes reportetis teipsum.

Lets hope SE repairs BST as too many people have retired from the Nerf already.

What do we have here:

Kainstryder posted in regards to the new unity behemoth:


So despite that huge aoe damage from this level 135 NM, they still killed it while staying in range.

So it's not that BST is broken, you complainers are just bad players.

Illogical assumption from a lack of information.

It could be a stretch to say it makes the job "unplayable" but it doesn't mean that players aren't experiencing major frustration and inconvenience for no good reason. The change was unnecessary and only serves to tick people off.
