Translation Corner

Hello everyone!

In another thread, someone mentioned that they wish they could get things translated like when Reyhart used to back in the day. Rey actually used to work with me and compare translations a lot, but the thread we used to do so in is in archive (since it was from 1.0 days).

So, I thought I'd resurrect it and give people a place to ask to have things translated, and do some translating of the Japanese forum from time to time. Anyone else with skill in Japanese is welcome to help out with translating and answering questions here as well.

Just want to know what the JP community thinks about AST? (is that the idea or am I doing this wrong >.< )

No, not the wrong idea. I'll take a look at the JP healer board and AST topics and try to give you a consensus (if there is one). ^_^


EDIT:

Ok, so there's a really big thread all about AST in the healer forum. It's 193 pages... o.O

In any case, it would appear that their main concern is the Cards. There's a lot of discussion on whether there's any point to them and how a lot of them aren't very useful.

There's also debate on whether the class is too weak or not. Some claim it definitely is, others that it just seems like it is because people don't know how to use the job well. But there's a general consensus that the image of AST is that they are weak and that for difficult content, it's common for parties to want WHM or SCH instead because of the fear that AST might be too weak.

Finally, there's worry/complaint about AST MP problems. WHM and SCH have reliable ways to regain MP, but AST seems to run out of MP often.

All that being said, there is still a lot of positive posts saying they love the class, but would just like to see some improvements. And most agree that the job is viable, just tuned a little low.

Would like to know what Japanese people think about Dragoons, especially about the 4th tier skill (Fang&Claw / Wheeling Thrust), not sure how the skill is named in Japanese, though, thanks Kaedan!

I just want to chime in early here and say that I think this is a great idea for a thread, and I hope it helps to bridge the gap that (At least I feel) exists between the JP community and the NA/EU community. I know there are several times when I would like to know what the JP community is thinking on a subject, and now there will be a place to check to see if anyone else is wondering the same thing. I just hope you don't get overwhelmed with requests. :P This could turn in to a full-time job. :P

Is on JP forum have a thread about unfairness of outfit like those bunny outfit?

I'd love to get hired by SE to just be the "bridge" between JP and EN players. But barring that, yeah, responses will be based on when I have the time. Which is also why I invite anyone with Japanese skill to help out!

Next on the list. ^_^

Now this is a quality thread ^o^. It will be nice to have another like Reinhart's previous thread.

Q: I would like to know what the JP community thinks about end game in FFXIV.
For example: Do they like the structure as it is? Do they want to see longer, progressive raids like FFXI's Dynamis or LotRo?

@kaedan94 Just wanted to say Thank You! :)for doing this. I used to really enjoy reading Reyhart thread back in the day.

This is a very good idea.

I'd be interested to hear a very brief overview of how they feel tank classes are currently balanced and how they feel each should be changed, if at all.

I love this idea! Thank you for making this topic!

Bookmarking this thread ^^!

大きい剣か。。。？ (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Thanks for the JP community's take on AST. ^.^

Thanks so much for this!

Any ending story theories? What's their take on the WoD?

first, thank you for this idea, very useful and helpful and will bring closer the JP and English community and find out that maybe we do have the same concerns.

Q : I would like to know what they think about the new gathering/crafting system in regards to seals red and blue and the difficulty to get base material

Thanks in advance for your valuable time

@Greyfrost

Alright, I took at look at the JP forums about DRG. The most useful thread I found was titled "About Dragoon's new skills".

The most common things posted were about the randomness of WT and F&C, the positional aspect of them, and the strictness of the timer, especially regarding use of Geirskogul.

-Many people don't really like how WT and F&C are randomly proc'd. They would prefer that it was 100% proc depending on the combo you use.
-Part of the issue with the random proc is the positional. They feel it's a bit strict/difficult to have to adjust for the positional. However, most the people who had issue with the positional are less concerned about it now that they buffed the non-positional damage from 100 to 200.
-A lot of discussion is about how best to use Geirskogul in regards to the fact it reduces the duration of your BotD buff. Basically theorycrafting about how to use the skill because they want to try to keep BotD up as much as possible. One thing a lot of people say is they love how "cool" Geirskogul looks.

Overall, since WT and F&C were buffed, the posters seem to think DRG is in a pretty good place. Random proc is still an annoyance for some, but others point out that it makes the job reactive.

If you have any other specific questions, let me know. :)


次：　Working on Kyri's tank question next, time allowing.

Thanks for your time Kaedan! Glad to know the JP community thinks that as well.
