Immanence Balance Discussion

[OmnysValefor]

I believe they are using ambuscade as a testing ground because its what is closest to a "control" that they have. Other content varies way too much from mob to mob to properly test anything. Ambuscade is the same for an entire month. By using ambuscade as a testing ground, they get content that nearly everyone does, with many different setups, using almost every job. It would be hard to test in Escha NMs because they differ so greatly and, lets face it, people are very reluctant to use DDs there until this is fixed.

@Bold, but there's no "control-sample" if they don't know how players (not devs, players--devs appear to perform wildly different in this game than players) are handling the fight without the changes. Further, the fights are over in frequently less than 3 minutes. There's not much to learn here.

And the players will have no input because they've never done the fight before. Something a little more relevant would be much nicer.

As a side note, I really love the "reflect" mechanic. I wish they would use it more often. It would be a crux for mages like enfeebles are for DDs.

I wouldn't want to see it used everywhere, but I agree it would be nice to see again, whether the reflect was passed back to the casters (lol no more thundaja), or on to the tank.

PVP is a bit cumbersome in this game but I wanna put my aegis head to head against my scholar friend. Just never get around to it. If he wins, then I'll have some things to say about Immanence! (lol)
