RIP PLD, welcome back WAR!

Yep welcome back war, u were gone for a whole month. Lmao gtfo.

Was Ninja really that strong to get nerfed though?

Mainly because trick attack is the best utility buff in the game. Their dps shouldn't be anywhere near the other melee because trick attack is that strong.

I will still play paladin since i never switch mains. Been playing paladin since ffxi and Ffxiv 1.0. They should buff the other tanks but leave paladin as is.

No plans to nerf Royal Menagerie but they'll be wary of having future main story content be as difficult.

I'm glad that the final boss isn't being nerfed - though I don't want future final bosses to necessarily be 'easier'. It's a final boss for a reason and making them a reasonable challenge serves to do them justice.

But it's not a final boss. We have 2 years before a final anything in the expansion happens. At best RM is a middle story boss. Heck Steps of Faith was exactly right at the end of Final Bossdom. Final Steps of Faith could be Final Boss, but we had the darn wall to lead us to Stormblood. Either way be thankful it's not getting nerfed.

Its a bit early to say for sure, but given SEs track history with over nerfing things, I wouldn't be at all surprised. But fingers crossed for all the PLD mains out there. ><

No, it's not. Just this evening I ran into an all STR build warrior who would simply not tank, and was as bullish as ever about warriors superiority. Thanks for one bloody month SE. You crapped on Paladin again.

That's all been said before. But let's nerf the only old dungeon who's difficulty is worth anything instead.

Guys, wait for that patch before screaming out again. From what I read I don't think Pld is gonna get back to HW status. I think it's still gonna be fairly powerful, but also other tank combinations will be possible.
On a side note, my static has always run a Pld and we never regretted it, Pld are great.

Although I can see an argument for adding echo after multiple failure, this fight is nothing like Titan HM was back in its day.

[Niraves]

Snip.

Well, unless that all star build Warrior is actually secretly Yoshi-P in disguise I think its still a bit too early to say for sure.
