FFXI Job Direction?? Dev Team, Please Respond.

Even the guys at BG were talking bout how they found PLD useful for the newer NMs and voidwatch. PLD will become more desirable because SE is designing more PLD friendly fights. High Accuracy means eva tanks lose their main advantage. Real hard hitters remove something like WHM+WAR/SAM tanking it from 100% to dead. The ability to strip shadows, like spamming ga spells, or AoE melee attacks. No 20mp a tick in Atmas helps too.

I will not be surprised when the next tier of Voidwatch scheduled to come out in the August update, and new NMs they'll add to the next revamped system, makes PLD important again.

While part of me agrees with you, Voidwatch has been a drop in the sea known as post-Abyssea FFXI. Really, the system is so incomplete and rewards so few it has failed to even divert the smallest iota of attention away from Abyssea.

Really it's starting to smell like VNMs all over again.
