yea, i leveled thm during 1.18 and barely played it during 1.19 cause it was kinda useless. I wish they would do ongoing balancing instead of only doing balancing during the big patches.

They felt even more useless in 1.19 than 1.18 for me really. . . No one would invite me for party in 1.19 and soloing was. . . horrible. . .

Yup, 2/3 GLA/MRD 5/6 THM, just you wait.

yea, thats what i meant in my comment, you misunderstood me:)

Manaburns {You can have this!} I'm interested in leveling thm up now :) Didn't really care how mages were played pre .20

Eh, I still think MRD will have the ability to be an AoE machine, from the patch notes & ability/trait adjustments it's quite clear they're going to slow down the pace of combat, but for everyone. So I don't think MRD is going to lose it's position as being an AoE melee. I -do- think THM will become better at AoE, depending on MP regeneration, but it will really shine once BLM & BRD comes into play.

Glass cannons should be able to blast stuff, but they should also have to manage threat generation, which I think may also be a factor since I assume they'll adjust the enmity algorithm for the new combat pace. But speculation, we'll know for sure in a few hours.

I for one look forward to playing mob tennis with other thm's

I kicked a lot of ass on my thm as of 1.19, you guys need a ls that will take you to stuff as a thm, or get two to three friends and start the party then shout, they can't be like "omg you're a thm get out" if you started the party!
