I think everyone saying RIP MSQ missed:

Completion reward is currently 20 poetics

It's 120. And nobody cares about poetics anymore when the game practically throws it at you.

People os so focused on the negativity and their desire to try make this as if was horrible game than forget that 99% of the patch is cool.

Well, like it said, you can do 99 things good and 1 bad that you will be remembered for that bad thing.

No, Main Scenario Roulette gives 120 and is changing to 200.

The dungeons themselves give 20, and are also being adjusted.

Yea because managing an extremely successful MMORPG for several years clearly highlights the fact they don't know how to balance classes.

Good thing people aren't overly dramatic...

Also rip casters, undeserved nerfs to Smn as soon as they're somehow in a good spot and minor buffs to Blm, that don't address any of its core issues. I don't know how much longer I can take it.

I can see it now, you finally get into Castrum and every time the tank pulls someone triggers the cutscenes - wipe incoming GLHF!

SE doesn’t balance classes. They choose which ones THEY want to be relevant for each patch.

Maybe they choose which classes are going to be OP off of what Yoshi wants to play that patch......who knows.......

If the MSQ roulette gives more xp than two level appropriate dungeons it might survive. Otherwise it's unlikely anyone will queue there.

I...uh, I don't get the warrior changes.

I thought the idea was more to make the burst phases a bit easier not buff them a lot. And they kind of are making it harder a little by reducing the time of inner release as well as forcing you to decide whether its better to use it with burst or as sort of a burst heal with inner beast. I'm also annoyed because I'm starting to get sick of radical changes to jobs; I don't mind minor ones to make them flow better but this makes you rethink a bit about how to play.

And lol, more effort seems spent on PvP stuff than anything else.

Equipment being destroyed really limits what I would be willing to put in the new glamour system, thus limiting my use of it. I was very hopeful it wouldn't happen this way. I was positive about this change because I thought I would actually like the system but now this is very disappointing. The only things I would put in there are items you can get back from the calamity salvager. I would not risk destroying anything else. I'm glad the old system still exists.
