MAGE STRIKE

[DeadRiser]

They shouldn't have made heals that much in MP cost. If they cut it in half of what it is now, things might be a little easier. Spiritbind is useless because the minute you use it, you get enmity. Soughspeak never has done what it's supposed to. Silhoette and the CON one doesn't do anything. Pretty much ANY of the enmity moves does not work. I'm pissed because of the enmity problems. The Provokes and Taunts being used are almost useless. I might as well go all into vitality as I'm the one 'tanking' all the mobs.

And why did they make Siphon MP single target? >.> Not saying I can't deal with it, but the cost of spells and the cost of gaining ALL enmity isn't worth it.

The changes are great. This adds some skill to the game. MP management is an actual thing now, instead of spamming cures for no reason.

there is only so much room for skill if a taunt+provoke+featherfoot barely generates more enmity than a emergency heal3 and im sure pple who did HNM in XI know about emergency cure IV heals...

Well I don't know about featherfoot being an enmity draw, but accomplice would solve that problem. (I assume you mean cure or sacrifice I've never heard of heal)

unless the patch changed featherfoot it was enmity alright. and yeah i mean cure and sacrifice but its a waste of space to type out both when i can round them 2 up in 4 letters: heal

So tired of the idiots with their ez mode crap, because they play the game so hard. No one wanted ez mode, and no one wanted an mp sink. You are a blantant fool if you think mp sink= strategy/difficulty/challenge. It just equals annoying and frustration. Mp cost are ridiculously high now compared to xi's, keep raises same mp, but some of these spells mp need to be decreased by 20-30 mp, not even that much. It really has nothing to do with the idiots "ez mode" they keep tooting like it makes them look cool.

I'd appreciate if you took a second to actually read. No one has praised cure spam.

Probably because you could get full MP back in one cast, making soloing Dodore and the Goblin possible, among other things.

The main problem with enmity right now is regular mobs die so fast and don't hit hard enough that a tank is not really needed. Long term fights it works well.

No thanks. I like the changes. Makes mages less like Jesus and more like a playable class.
