To be fair I know why they changed Sidewinder
it was OP, too good

The rest I'm fine with..
Especially the buff to WM. I knew they were going to do that.

Yay, thanks for getting Forbidden Chakra fixed so quickly SE. It was a minor but very frequently encountered and annoying bug.

No weapons from Alex NM, so Hive is currently the best we're getting.

So I'm guessing the Healing over Time effects being put on Dark Knights still draining their MP is still a bug that's not solved yet?

And no war nerfs. Rejoice, my dear axe wielders!

Totally :D was anoying when trying to queue it up for burst on Ravana, and it going newp! not happening XD

I think it's a fair trade, 20%->30% boost and GB/VM are now instant instead of cast
Will just have to see how it does in Alexander if it still needs adjustments.

Read the bard changes all wrong, I actually like these changes

The sound effects for the following actions have been adjusted:
Meditation / Form Shift / Fell Cleave / Broil

---

Thank you :D pretty sure I wasn't the only one annoyed by it.

so no weapons in alexander normal? man, and they showed them off in the alexander trailer.

So... nothing for DRK? Doesn't even list a fix for that horrible MP bug, or that god damned aura. Is this going to be a stealth fix, or are they serious?

People are going to rage about the loss of the potencies without seeing the flat 10% damage bonus across every other skill. It'll add up.

An issue wherein the dark knight action "Dark Arts" would only apply its additional effect to a single target when used in area-of-effect attacks.

Thinking on it, it could be that they drop from the last boss and they don't want to spoil something about it (the ilvl, the boss's name maybe being in the weapon name, etc.). Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

actually i like the fixes to bard.. sidewinder just felt way to OP have to wait n see how it feels tryin out the changes nows :3 mied feelings over the new gear tho.. looks kinda ummm... needing glamoured asap :P

People love raging no matter what... there will be people raging that they didn't get rid of the skill outright.

So many patches have past and still no option do default to 'commence' when using Duty Finder. Please SE, this needs to be a higher priority.

Sadly I guess this is all they fixed for DRK.

This token system looks absolutely disgusting. For those uninformed:

Head Tarnished Gordian Lens 2
Body Tarnished Gordian Shaft 4
Hands Tarnished Gordian Crank 2
Waist Tarnished Gordian Chain 1
Legs Tarnished Gordian Spring 4
Feet Tarnished Gordian Pedal 2
Accessories Tarnished Gordian Bolt 1

There are 4 turns, and each one you can obtain a token from weekly. So not only do you fight the RNG of getting the token you want to drop, but then you have to win the RNG-lottery four times a week.

Why SE? Why couldnt' we just get a token from each turn for a turn-in? Why did you make it so we have to spam the dungouns in the hopes of getting the drop, then in the hopes of winning the lot, and in the case of major pieces, having to do it four times?

I'm glad I'll have a static. But holy **** this is A Grind Reborn.

Are you people seriously complaining about changes made to make it easier for you to get decent numbers? They obviously tested the numbers and made adjustments to help you get there and you're complaining.
GIT GUD!
Only cluster of players that complain when they get buffed lmao.

So does Wanderer's Minuet still make our actions "casted"? It didn't specify in the notes.

LOL! You weren't. Broil was pretty annoying.

Abyssal Drain's health drain was a nice, but not really important bonus. Dark Passenger costs too much MP to be useful anyway.

I'm talking about bug fixes that matter.

Looks to be 6 weeks with the token system, to get full set alex nm gear. Esoteric prob will be 200 and savage 210. Guess normal alex will be alt gearing perrty fast.

So that there will always (most likely) be people running it so the 'new kids' can get a chance to play it.

Why the heck would they add that option? So more people can AFK queue? No thanks.

Sooo.....where is our mp drain bug with darkside on...?

Don't worry you'll still see people on this forum complaining about how hard it is

They should've changed shuffle so you couldn't draw the same card.

I hate getting 50 spires in a row.

Need every token. Win one, roll on that token in next level. Don't win one? Run again.

Focus on one item at a time.

Still no EXP from Level 50 dungeons. *RAGE*
I want to level other battle classes.

Dark Knight: So no fixes for Darkside aura bug and MP ticking bug? Not even some "pity" adjustments sprinkled in? wow...uh ok, apparently the Job is working 100% as intended as MT and OT!
