Dragoon buffs and Ninja nerfs coming Dec 9th in patch 2.45

They said they are fixing the lag.

I believe it was "they would look into it", not fix it. The problem with mudra is the .5sec GCD does not read with the servers well and lags particularly in boss fights. They can either somehow magically fix people's latency with the .5sec GCD or rework how GCD's or how weaving goes with mudra to resolve the issue. Which right now, they do not have an answer for. So we will probably not for a long time see any improvement to this, and that is stacked with an apparent DPS nerf we are getting. Because Square-Enix knows how to balance things. It took them over a year to figure out that giving DRG low magic defense was actually a bad thing. Sorry, not feeling confident in their ability to balance at the moment.

If they believe MNK's damage isn't OP and NIN's is, a job that doesn't even beat MNK in numbers, I don't believe they know their own jobs that well. Only job that needed adjustment was DRG, and if they do it right, they would be on the same level as NIN and MNK on DPS. Now what we will likely see is NIN being thrown in the situation DRG is now. Could be me being over dramatic, but my history with SE and their ideas of balancing has led me to be like that.

Only way i see they could "fix" it is to allow skill usage betveen mudras, tbh i was kinda sad when it wasnt like that from beginning. Also im kinda suprised we didnt see any PvP related nerfs for nin's, as that is only class i know atm that can melt all other classes in pvp even tanks and healers drops insanely fast with good CC usage.
