Thank you for (job changes): Thank them!

[Duelle]

We need to remember that they DO listen.

We have our bard and mch change
PvP change
And Summoner change. Heading in the right direction

Let's not forget that.

Their Red Mage is basically a black mage with a sword (slightly less insulting that Revelation Online's sword mage, but very up there), if the skill showcase is anything to go by. So I beg to differ.

That said, at least cast times are no longer shoehorned into BRD, and that's something to celebrate.

I don't see RDM and BLM as similar as you do.

Thanks. i'm working on Warrior, but I've always played with sword and board....so...PLD. I'm happy that they didn't hurt WAR, and that they have worked to give PLD something truly distinct of it's own that plays into our use of shields.

I know War and Pld have a love hate relationship, Pld is not my element but are still the core of Tanking and they deserved that moar Holy power. I trully did suck as PLD

I think the attribute changes are ridiculous. Removing ACC and replacing it with Direct Hit which is similar to DET. I'm wondering is DET next to go? Accuracy is a guarenteed hit that will land which is the same as a Direct Hit(if you land an attack that's a direct hit) and Direct Hit increases damage dealt which is the same as DET, because determination increases damage dealt as well as the amount of hp restored. It's going back to attributes complimenting each other but it's conflicting more than it is attributing. It will be a choice of whether to meld DET or DH, which I already meld DET instead of CRIT, but it seems as though they are trying to get players to notice DET or will they choose the new stat and nix DET. To add insult to 2.0 they are bringing back STR as a stat for the tank. It's also becoming a plug and play with the new defensive skills for the PLD. Why craft if all you have to do is go through raids for gear.

Hopefully someone will do a play by play of it soon, it will take a while for the official Q&A to appear.

Mr happy will be releasing a video going over stuff from the LL. He always makes lists and stuff for them. Shouldn't be much longer

You really didn't get what Direct hit was.

Direct hit is kind of like Critical hit but has less of a damage buff and a higher chance to proc making it more reliable. It also stacks with crit so you can have an attack direct hit and crit hit at the same time for higher damage.

It works nothing like DET.

Tanks won't be able to use STR accessories. They will all be role locked. Tanks will have to use Vit accessories like they do now.

FFXIV is not FFXI. If you want XI's RDM, go play XI. As far as I'm concerned, I'm happy with the RDM we are getting and especially happy of how the mechanics and nuances of RDM operate.

Thanks for the kick in the balls.

It looks like some jobs are changing into builder/spenders. We've been missing those, and i was wondering if they'd ever do it. I'm glad we're moving away from the "press shiny button in sequence" rotations.

[Remedi]
