Based on the feedback we've been receiving, we plan to make the following adjustments in Patch 3.35.

• The amount of data required to win a 72-player match will be reduced from 1800 to 1600
  For a 72-player match, the length of the match ended up being fairly long, even after destroying all the icebound tomeliths. Therefore we will be reducing the amount of data required to win a match.
  
  
• Icebound Tomeliths
  When comparing caster DPS and melee DPS, casters were able to damage icebound tomeliths from a relatively safe distance. To balance the DPS between melee DPS classes, the icebound tomeliths will have their magic resistance increased by 50%.

In addition to this, we have received numerous comments stating the win/loss rate between the three nations aren't balanced well, in part due to situations where there are strong pre-made parties in specific Grand Companies. The dev. team is aware of this, and currently looking into how they can make adjustments.

We will continue to make adjustments based on everyone's feedback, so please continue to submit your comments and requests!

and yeah I know its in a thread already but I doubt that all people check 20+ pages to find such stuff (since the title doesnt say anything about it )

99% of the playerbase wants to see GC restrictions abolished, and instead the dev team completely ignores that and comes up with this.

i got a lot of thoughts. but the predominant one is just giving up on them and thinking that they actually care about the player's interests.

BAN MOMENT....REMOVE THE FUCKING GC RESTRICTIONS GOD DAMN THE 12.... SHIT LISTEN TOO THE PLAYER BASE. FUCKING SQUARE

Are you really making a thread linking to a reddit which links right back to the lodestone forums?
Why not just use the actual thread everyone else is? You can get a good idea of peoples thoughts on this.

As the creator of the subreddit thread, I approve this message.

No need to be redundant x-x

By the way, even if we was asking for GC estriction removal, the OP made another question,

To me the flat reduction of caster damage on crystal is a totally bad and lazy move,
if the "I'm DPSsing safe a crystal" is a real issue (I dont' think so but... ok), put something like:
"Magic Deflection: if you cast a spell on the crystal from too far (15-20y), a part of it will be casted on you too"
So it will be different mechanic, that in my opinion is bette than a flat nerf, for casters, similar but not identical to the ranged DPS reduction, and also won't affect DRK at all, because their range is anyway under that gap.

The reduction of the points needed to end the match is even worse, because you wil lbe able to full PvE a PvP match even easier now.

PvP kills&bases should give more points, crystals less -if they don't do anything like this it will stay a "pve>pvp" mode

even when you remove gc restrictions, there are still premade so they have a point

You can do a premade even right now anyway, on Chaos datacenter most of the very active pvpers are costantly switching GC, so if they wanted they could already do it, and honestly the only imbalance could be a preformed vs solo que, if the preformed would become an issue they coudl fix it making you able to queue only in a max of 4 guys, similar to the 8vs8 feas restriction (where u can join only solo or duo).
But actually GC was an issue lasted too long, we would like to experience another kind of issue at this point XD
