MCH, still as bad?

[Nirurin]

It's not the case now, but there are some distinct advantages excllusive to BRD that MCH doesn't have, which gives them an edge in progression (not to mention that they scale better from stats than MCH too, esp crit)

Hmm, that doesn't sound good. Is MCH at least a fun class to play as? It must have some reason to play it haha

Fun is subjective. I personally prefer it over BRD, but that's only because I can't stand WM on BRD. I'd say give it a shot at least. Once you get to lvl 54 you more or less have the full rotation.

I though gauss barrel was effectively the same as WM? Is there a difference that makes it less annoying?

While I'm asking a question, heres another - Which is better at AoE? I've read two conflicting threads, one says MCH and the other says BRD. Though I think the MCH one also added in crowd control to mch as being a big plus.

They're both functionally the same, but BRD has river of blood which resets their oGCD cooldowns. MCH is also more reliant on procs which give them instant casts on specific weaponskills, so they're roughly closer to 2.0 BRD's gameplay. BRD has a proc as well that gives them instant cast, but it's not as prominent. To me, it's more on "GB messes up less things on MCH than it does on BRD"

I'd say BRD's AoE is infinitely better due to multi-dotting for multiple RoDs. Bishop is nice and all, but it's only 60 potency that's unaffected by gauss barrel.

Is bishop the best AoE mch has? What about spread shot and grenade shot? Or are they just rubbish compared to bard?

Not that it's a big deal, mostly single target damage is the way to go, I was just curious. Trying to learn things ^^

They're not mutally exclusive. You have spread shot and grenado, but that mirrors what bard has (quick notch and wide volley) down to the potency, so I'm mostly referencing what's exclusive to the respective jobs. (bishop turret vs rain of death potential)

Also ricochet I guess for MCH, but thats only once a minute so probably doesn't help a big deal except with an opening burst
