    While I am a bit miffed we couldn't break zenos' neck when he had left but fandango was still monologing, this was a pretty good instance personally.

    It does feel like they have significantly upped the stealth capabilities of the engine. Considering the previous instance in shb which i detested, i was surprised how well this one went and the thancred one (never got spotted once!)

    That being the case, i do think that the magitek mobs need the cone that the quests where you follow people have to indicate line of sight.
    and like everything, I really detest losing so many buttons and especially having a pvp hotbar

    I do get why we have few though- some players never played the job. A solution to this should be, if you have that particular job at a high enough level, you get more actions.

    As much as I loathe the "you took my job and removed all the actions, where the heck is the thing I actually want to use right now" feel of the play-as-someone-else scenarios, I don't think they could do that and still balance it in any reasonable manner where the session would work for both people who hadn't leveled the job (and so had the limited actions) and the ones who had (and so had a more-plentiful buffet of actions to choose from).

    Plus, if they didn't give you ALL the actions but gave you like, a hotbar and a half worth, controller users would be in AGONY when it dropped a ton of actions they had to shuffle around to make the duty remotely playable. It's bad enough on keyboard/mouse when they scramble things from where you're used to them, but on controller... yikes.

    At least when you only get 4 or 5 actions the "we've ignored all your hotkey or controller setup" aspect is still manageable. :|

    I aim to make my posts engaging and entertaining, even when you might not agree with me. And failing that, I'll just be very, VERY wordy.
