DD Nerfed

[Pathios]

Now maybe all classes have a chance at getting a group. All I saw before was LFM AOE DD!

[Zantetsuken]

Would someone please define the acronym used here? I think of "DD" as damage dealers. Of what subject are we speaking here?

I'm glad. Maybe now people will spread out cause it's kinda sad seeing how empty the other areas that have Lv 45+ FATEs are.

The only other zone with 40+ fates is Mor Dhona, and there there are only a couple above level 45.

I sense much of this happening with the DD Nerf:



And I simply lol.

Tell that to all the players who end up in a group with a player rocking whites because they DD FATE to 50 and never got better gear past level 40. Creates more problems than it solves...yeah right.

FATEs are not the cause.

FATEs are not the cause.

The heck they aren't. People aren't running dungeons (good source of gear.) People aren't doing story quests (good source of gear.)
They're just leveling through FATES because you can be one of the masses and get exp no matter what gear you have. Just follow the train and spam AoE damage. You end up at level 50 and have no idea how to play your class or the game really for that matter.

Which is not the player's fault, it's a design flaw. People can't level as quickly doing dungeons as they can grinding FATEs, and FATEs drop gil. At least dungeons will now as well.

[LoLo]

It wasn't an exploit, the moderator for SE even said DD was working as it should.

working as it should but the end result was they have now made it work opposite of how it so call "should" have. so......

Dungeons drop gear, which is also part of the game. Unless players are just looking to be carried. I guess that's not 'their fault' either?
