Frontline getting hijacked by everyone turning SMN is one of the best things that have ever happened in Frontline.

It is bringing back memories of Elementalists in Guild Wars 2 WvW, endless firestorm fields.

Yep Frontlines is completely unplayable right now. Regularily running into bahamut comps just mass deleteing my teams. It's an utter joke. They obviously didn't playtest this garbage beforehand. They should just go with my previous suggestion and just delete PvP altogether at long last.

I think.. you need to take that pic down... isn't that ? Those vertical red lines around the aoe? I don't think thats part of the vanilla game is it?
I dunno, correct me if I'm wrong, but I've never seen em and I play on console.

This screen shot is pretty heavily edited. It was originally taken in limsa lominsa by the fishing trainer. I just made it look like a Frontline with the bahamuts and crazy spell effects with photoshop.

Those lines show up when the AoE is from an enemy. You need those because otherwise how can you tell if you can enter the Slipstream or not?

Hell, stepping in a Doton thinking it was a safe Doton would be a bitch.

Anyways, those are just vanilla markers, you see them all the time on Frontlines. No mods here.

The bigger problem is that it's -100%- a premade you're facing, and it's nothing new in frontlines, just more evident now as you see teams wiped out in an instant by a meta squad. Add to that quick BH5 snowballing and it's a carnage when it happens. Not the most fun that's for sure, if you care about winning.

100%?

Heh, a 15% at best. You don't even know how many of those Bahamuts are from his team, since Bahamut and Phoenix still have an issue where you can't tell which is which. Any given Frontline will have a point where the place gets flooded with Bahamuts, you just need to learn to see it coming and guard against the flood. Rule of thumbs is if the enemy is about to charge the SMNs are just gonna see that huge ball of enemies drool at how much they can pad their damage counters, odds are way smaller if you're on the charging team, though, for some reason it seems like I'm the only one that throws Bahamuts on charging teams sometimes.

But yeah, it naturally devolves into a flood of Purgations and Bahamuts... Some free-kill Dragoons if you know how to maneuver around it, because Dragoon forgets that he'll be in the middle of an entire team if he tries a Sky High...

Edit: Everyone else answered this already.
But, wait, is that supposed to happen for all enemy AoEs that are placed down, or just certain ones? I figured it was just from the darker/edgier jobs. I guess I haven't been paying enough attention.

I say that based on the score, not the number of bahamut on the field. No way the score is that skewed in favor of blue without a premade in said team. Even 2-3 is enough.
Also yes it's not that hard to see a flood of bahamut coming but the majority of players don't know what's happening on the field anyway so they will get wiped. The same could be said for a dragoon, no one pays attention to the faint light of its LB so it can easily get in, unleash an LB, and quickly get out without too much hassle.

I'm glad they don't listen to people like you. All you do is complain. Learn to adapt.

Not everyone wants to play Summoner, Scholar and White Mage in frontlines though. This isn't an "adapt" thing, it's a "fix SMN/SCH/WHM" thingy. I'm still irritated at what they did to me on Bard.
