the colour blind issue was responded to quit fast, but the blm issue has been adressed to earlier in the forums but hasnt gotten any feedback from any side yet

..would be pretty cool regardless.

agree, making f1/b1 instant under enochian could be cool and help for movement.. (just would hope we' d stop losing enochian when casting f1 under any ice astral)

Don't remember exactly how they answer to job problems in the forum, I do remember they usually announce things on Live letters which probably it's better considering they can address multiple problems in 1 go.
Remember BLM problems are not just a problem of the job they are also a result of caster beign generally less optimal than everything else

I'd like to point that the color blind issue is also a no Brainer. Thats the kind of thing you assign one person from the art team and tell him to change colors on a very specific aspect of the UI.

It has no impact on balance or anything. It doesn't involve new game components that need to be tested.



This is why this has been addressed quickly.

it is a nobrainer, that it's needed and easier to imply blind colourness

but the blm dps/gamplay issue is older in the forums and neither devs, nor any interviews have yet suggested, that the issue has been take seriously.. or an issue at all

wonder if we ever gonna get a qol change to make transpose 10s cd instrad of 12s. with 12s it only give u a 1s window to reuse it during some fights that have lengthy transition like in o4s. but i rather wish af/ui is 15s timer instead of 13s so that using lb3 wont totally kill af/ui/enochian.

To be fair, I never saw any Dev or Mod actually reply to threads like this. Doesn't mean they don't read or acknowledge it.
If we get any reaction it'll most likely be in a live letter and not on the forum.

oh....ok, good to know (fingers still crossed)..

but still (very) disappointed that 4.18 brought zero for blm ... and no interview or yoshi comment up to date indicates anything

[Remedi]

They announce every changes to the jobs before they are released as a way to not surprise ppl, so you should not expect anything from a patch if nothing about class changes have been said before

[Shiroe]

still could have hoped for something as easy/small as slight potency increase

[Remedi]

A slight potency increase pushed SMN over BLM, as much as we believe it otherwise there are no such a thing as easy fixes in game balance, especially here that, despite what's all said and done. all the jobs are somewhat fine, which means that small fixes are all that is need to tip the scale
