Good Job SE! You ruined the Archer class.

People should avoid threads like this.
When NIN got nerfed there also a lot of QQ threads/I'm gonna quit.
No one gives a rat's *** lol.

SE is trying to balance things.

I'm glad PUG tank got nerfed. It's a goddamn PUG, it's not supposed to tank. GLA is.

My LNC got it's Twisting Vice nerfed, and i don't care.
2 LNC in a party would be unfair. You would just spam the ability and the mob would only use regular attacks.
Awesome!

WHOAH there buddy. Going a little too far there. PUG can tank the lighter shit and light strike nerf is not really that big of a nerf.

Let the buthurt flow.

Uh. SE ADVERTISED Pugilist as a backup tank in Pre-Release media.

The nerf isn't even as bad as OP is making it out to be...Sure multishot recast hurts, but I was in the Dungeon and still out damaging every other DD class. You just have to be conscience on what your doing and when your doing it. Trifurcate will be of more use now and also the added accuracy increase helps a lot. Also our one bare fist punch does good damage as well, so lock on target multishot > run in punch > back out and light shot > enough TP to bloodletter (which is more powerful now) > trifurcate > light shot > barrage. That's still a massive amount of damage in small amount of time...

1. Cue the obligatory Ranger nerf outrage for any Fantasy MMO after first class balance. Raaaaaaaaagequit!
2. Rangers everywhere cuddle up together in a fetal position.
3. Rangers find that by adapting to the changes they still OMGWTFBBQPWN!
4. Everyone just *rolleyes* at Rangers.

So you mean the DEV team the pretty much got fired? They advertised Pug as a back up tank?

I am more than happy the new team took it away then.

... and you're crying about waiting only 15 seconds just to stack a third arrow before battle?

Well, I just never liked the Multishot mechanism in the first place. It's essentially 3 abilities to fire those 3 shots. This is the only game I've ever played where Multishot required you to use an ability per shot. Kinda makes it redundant. Sure, it's great as an opener and that buffs stack with every shot, but it's still counterintuitive.

They didn't though.

The timers for their hate control are on part with most of the ones from XI as well. And they are just as effective there as they are here. Plus you can grab hate control skills from other classes as well.

Take away a class's utility as a back up tank when it doesn't even deal that much damage? Yeah that's cool.

Good thing they didn't.

[Scape]

Lol.... so the OP thinks Archer is now useless because of a multishot recast timer?
