lnc TOP NOTCH DD? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ok now that i'm done laughing, dds should at least live through weapon skilling and vit stacks low with lnc due to the archaic concept of their distance from the mob mattering which is doesn't. We have archer man, thats a top tier dd, because it does dmg and it is out of range. LNC and MRD are mid tier dds and pug is a off tank with dd capabilities. I mean we just barely have top tier dds, and this is the first of the balancing. Personally the problem with MRD and LNC imho isn't just their ws potency, they over all suck as classes, and maybe its the people playing them combined with what the devs think about the classes, meaning the players think one thing, and the devs think another, but they don't meet up because no one every said "i think this and you think that". We're still dealing with the devs view point of these classes, not ours, and ours is usually based on faulty ass information like the main ffxiv website that doesn't even ring true anymore.
