Not all mages want it lowered, most in my ls mages are happy with it. And we are running dungeons and what not without much issue.
Only issue I see with MP is soloing... it is just not enough for that, outside soloing the current mp cost are fine once you learn how to manage it.
It's not as bad for most people. Maybe upgrade your gear or if it's broken, get it repaired. Or you're setting your star difficulty too high on leves. In the case of ranking to 33, I realize that unlocks R40 leves, but this is a little misleading as it's not really beneficial to partake in them solo that early since the patch. Try doing R30 leves at a comfortable difficulty and you'll notice how much better it is in terms of the SP reward at the end. You're also graded on time completed. :)
In the case of a field mob, at R33 and fighting a R40 mob, you should have to group. Leves are to accommodate the soloers and field mobs are there for farming/grinding with light and full parties. Don't expect to solo grind in a MMO that efficiently. Once, by the looks of things, the development team want to shift this MMO in the direction of an actual MMO rather than a solo RPG. It's even been stated in the last few letters. This MMO is like a story driven RPG, but the direction in progression is to reflect an MMO. This is something that has been missing for a while in this game.
Are the changes drastic? Not at all. You just haven't adapted to the changes yet. Or you haven't utilized the armoury system in a different way since the patch. Some abilities have become more useful with this patch. Perhaps try to rank THM to 20 for some MP gaining abilities? There are so many options to work towards to grow your character. This is the core of that system that some people are refusing to acknowledge.
Yes, perhaps the MP costs should be lowered a bit and are somewhat overboard, but that doesn't mean you cannot adapt to the new situation or that it's impossible to. Bitching about it is just refusing to do these things and show that you do not have the ability to do so. Which is sad.
That could be true.
Like i said.. Soloing is impossible and the DEV said that the game will be made so people can choose to be in party or Solo..
I prefer to solo as i don't want to be dependable from other players.
And if i play with others it's with people from my gaming community itself :-)
They made the game Anti Solo atm..
Which takles away the whole concept of an FF game MMo or not.
Lol i know how to play the game im not 1 of those lvl 15's with Lvl45 armor :P
My armor is setup perfect and never fully damaged.
If they want the Mp that way then make it people only get 75mp when in party.
It is discriminating if someone playing solo is not allowed to fight mobs without doing leves.
Leves are kind of old :-)
So i rather go into the fields or mines and kills mobs as thats fun. But now it is impossible as you can heal yourself max 3 times and after that it's done playing :-)
Like in my above post, you are misunderstanding this. The new direction of this game is to accommodate both in different ways. This does not mean it accommodates both in the same situations. Leves = solo. Grinding field mobs = party.
