To all those who thought yoshi-P was going casual on our asses just got served a cold plate of rat turds. Mages got put back in their place, WHERE THEY BELONG. Enough of the big fat Easy button all 0f these kids are complaining about and wanting back. Archer is a DD now not a Multi-shot Lance throwa-Bowing machine. THM is a DoT/backup healer/DD class
not a... Tank-this-and-that-main-heal-here-DD-to-top-it-off-GOD.

The complaints i hear fall short, it's PATHETIC. Easy-mode & slackfest is over time to suit up, man up and let the children hide behind mummy's skirt. FFXIV is in action for the first time ever, live in the past if you want but you'll just be left behind in your tears of self-wallow & Pity.The Real Players know what im talking about. Let the quitters quit and the winners win. You'll come crawling back eventually!

I start to understand why you really seem to think, that mages and DoW classes were on a same level.
At least you don't think there was a reason to adress this matter.

I like how strategically left out the bit about where I said mages can't incapacitate.
I don't actually understand what you're trying to say here, nor am I in the right mind set to remember what I was even talking about.

If someone complains in these forums because of 1.18 they automatically assume it's an MP issue or an archer/thau issue. Which it's not. Not all of it, and not everyone.

I didn't rank Conjurer to 50 just so I could be stuffed into a WHM suit weeks before the job system was even introduced in game. The versatility between the two classes is dead, nuff said. I have no hope for the mage classes now. For as much as this forum abhors XI apparently they sure are in favour now of making sure every class has their assigned role whether they like it or not.

Hear hear! I only completed the limsa quest to enter the dungeons and gave my first crack at the darkhold last night; failing miserably. However, I had more fun last night than I've had in a while in this game. My early thoughts are that SE really hit the mark with this last patch. (aside for the crashing and the complete hosing of LS chat of course)

1.18 and Yoshi-P for the WIN! please bring us more changes like this patch and the people who actually enjoy SE style'd MMO's will come back.. you will get the FFXI Converts you thought you were gonna get before.. I went back to FFXI and I can say that after 1.18 i'm here for the foreseeable future. LOVING the direction the game is heading.. now since I rerolled i need to hit 22-25 so i can take part in all the new content :)

The crystal ball is telling me that Yoshi's going to make a post after the weekend /nod whether its for an emergency adjusting oooorrrrrrrr 1.19 detailes wooooooooo! Can't wait....

@Wiklly that sig is totally distracting me D:

Yes the reason being that immaturity and being an a** is not uncommon on internet forums. And these 52 likes is proof of that.

I think what we're seeing now is the gigantic initial backlash to the vast changes that 1.18 brought.

Did they go a little far with mages? Probably, the MP costs didn't need to be THAT high. Conjurer is the main healer now, with people wanting class uniqueness one of them had to be. 50/50 shot.

Most of the classes are honestly more balanced now. People throw around nerf constantly but I think it's more that the classes are simply better balanced. Does that mean a reduction to some? Yes.

What everyone really needs to do is shut up and play. Play the game and adjust to the changes. If you're not having fun with the changes, it's probably time to cut your losses and leave if you feel the need. Party mechanics need to be re-examined, people need to re-learn how to play the game in certain aspects. A lot of things changed but it's worth mentioning that further battle adjustments are coming in 1.19.

About effing time! I said 2 months ago there was no mp management in this game. Now look! I'm excited. Can't wait to get my controller working again so I can heal just fine

For once I actually agree with you on something. Well said.

I really enjoyed this patch.
I'm just a little worried about the Guildleves.

I did a R30 leve yesterday and a R30 MRD.
This is what i got:

Securing Nophica's Wells
2**
SP reward: 2k
I did it in 10min.

Seems a bit too low to me. =/
