Your looking at it the wrong way.

lol. the game is dying. the majority of people still playing are the whiteknight fanboys. SE ruined this game, no amount of player feedback or work is going to save it. 2.0 will come...the game will pickup for a short while...then fade away again. It's the same thing that has happened in every patch since 1.18.

This most recent patch was 1 step forward 2 steps back.

Yes we got some core game functions that the game should have had from day 1.
Yes they are preparing the classes for the new jobs.

BUT (bring on the trolls cause thats really all thats left on this forum), they implemented this class change at the wrong time. These class changes should have been held off until advanced jobs came out, and implemented at the same time. Implementing changes such as these (that made almost all classes weaker than they were before) that are planed for bigger changes in the future just makes the game more broken until those next changes come about. In other words SE is breaking the game with the explicit purpose of fixing it later. What kind of backwards @ss thinking is that? Lets break it so we can fix it later?

SE has no clue what they are doing.

(start the flaming trolls)

See it here folks. A perfect example of what the OP of the thread is talking about.
