I hate CON post 1:18

[QUOTE=Punainen;248501]Don't 'boohoo' me about 'easy mode' or MP management. All the people that make these complaints are people who don't even play CON, and thus have no idea what they're talking about.

I play CON and THM... whats the problem? I like the new mage changes..

I began leveling CON because I have always loved BLM in all FF games especially FF11. CON seemed to be the obvious BLM of the game to me so I went with it. Sadly I feel that so far CON is a DEEP dissapointment to my original hopes for the class. I don't dislike healing I even leveled THM (at the time under the impression that it was the healing class) but I love elemental nuking and always have. Am I the only person that just feels like there is no actualy elemental nuking job possible in the current format of this game?

I'm totally okay with mp cost if these two conditions apply which i think they will:


a) pre jobs, it will make alchemist/items more useful. As before people weren't using them as much before. Some of this mp cost might make slow, paralyze, blind, and silence, more useful than before. Maybe even paralynia and poisona and stuff.

b) once jobs come out you will receive reduced mp costs for things that fit in the role. For people who played xi think of it like scholar, but instead of books there are jobs. You have all the same spells laid out for you if you choose blm, but only nukes and such will offer reduced mp costs and maybe even reduced action points. Its different from scholar of course, but the reduced mp cost on roles is kinda like switching between books for less mp, but i would love to see a book based mp management job sometime.

just a sidenote, when we switch to jobs i would love to have my job have its own slot in my action and traits drop down menu, and all the spells that it can use from the "classes" would be listed there, because action and traits can be a pain atm, so for jobs streamlining would be a little nice.

The CONs that I party with seem to be doing fine.

I suspected that I'd prefer playing my marauder or Lancer again after the patch, and reassigned my points accordingly, but as of now I have completely respecced back to Thaumaturge and am doing quite well.

The new battle system just takes a little time to get used to.

My question to those who are fine with the changes as a Conjurer, what role are you used to playing in a team?

Conjurer is my main Thurmaturge is my secondary.

If you mean: how do I like to play my job: I'm a 'nuker/secondary healer' when it comes to my preferred play style.

Against normal mobs: Buff, Nuke, Heal, Debuff

Against bosses: Buff, Heal, Debuff

Honestly from what i've been reading the main arguments about mages in this patch seems to stem from an inherent disconnect. CON is my main and if I had picked to play a CON for the sole and explicit purpose of main healing people there would be no problem at all. But I did not and I think a lot of other CON leveled it in hopes of playing a BLM. Something that CON is most certainly NOT shaping up to be.

You still got nukes. Use 'em if you want to.
