Yes, who are you to say something is acceptable when other people don't think that way. You might as well tell them to shut up because you feel it's okay.

    You are here out of the supposed fear that the job will be gutted because of what happened to Samurai, even though it has nothing to do with what's going on here.

    Yes, I'm playing "intellectual" on an internet forum (projection) whos assuming and injecting now. But don't be a hypocrite. You live in a glasshouse, and it doesn't take someone pretending to be an "intellectual" to point out the flaws with your statement you are not that smart.

    Suppose you want people to take you seriously. In that case, you might want to act like some of the other people who disagree and bring something to the conversation, such as Avoidy, Shougun, Krotoan, Corvus_V and Alaray, and many others who genuinely say something of recognition and merit.

    Disagreeing on the points and having a conversation is what we are here to do. But, unfortunately, doom-mongering isn't one of those.

    Also, I'm a Viera. I can't wear hats, but that is just me being cheeky now.



    A statement that genuinely adds to the discussion. If you label a debate on the forums as complaints and use irrelevant events as fear-mongering rather than a talk or feedback, don't be surprised when people on the thread call you out. If you think it's okay, state why.
    I see nothing wrong with my original post. Not everything need to to be an essay. If I don't feel anything needs to be touched it's as simple as that.
    Dont need to go all in depth on why as the point already is that I think everything is fine as is. Would you prefer I go through skill by skill on why that.

    You aren't the be all end all on what actually contributes to a conversation. And again I can say what I want about what's acceptable just like anybody else. You can't be this dense...yet you then tell me I'm not that smart. If what I have to say is so bad or doesn't meet your contributuon standards you can freely ignore me. Get back to the actual topic instead of taking shots.

    Eh you know what I'll humor you. The classes damage and rotation are fine/fun. Love the aesthetic. Right amount of buttons. That good enough for you?

    Oh btw I'm not mad lol you're the one constantly editing your post to add more

    No one said it needed to be an essay. You need to back up your points. Why is it more than acceptable? You state a point but then don't say why, nor did anyone ask for you to go through skill by skill.

    Yeah, your not that smart and yes, a point with nothing to back it up has no value, as it has no context or substance. It's not my contribution standards. It's primary level literature & grammar skills. Did you not get taught PEEL in school? Point; Evidence; Explain; and then link.

    1. You talked crap by calling feedback complaints and then fear-mongering, using an irrelevant example.
    2. You are passive-aggressive about two sentences calling you on your crap.
    3. You are not humouring. Instead, you are doing what you should have done in the first place.

    If you don't provide context to your statement, people can't have a conversation with you regarding the substance of your point.

    See how people can now have a conversation with you about why the rotation and class are fun, what's good about the aesthetic, and why it is the correct number of buttons.

    I also edit my point because I double-check my spelling and what I say to make sure I get my point across properly so I don't cause unnecessary confusion for others. I have even gone out of my way in some of the posts to correct your spelling. But, unfortunately, you had over twenty grammatical errors in a single post, and some are structural, which I can't change without rewriting.

    It's a lazy effort on your part. Even in the posts where you try to make a point, it's sad. No wonder you confuse and then get flustered when you feel that others haven't grasped your thought process.

    So I guess it'd be a bridge TOO far if the Warrior of Light was a Thief, because he prefers more heroic actions such as torturing his foes by stealing their life force, suffocating them, destroying their flesh, and enslaving sentient beings to do his bidding in battle.

It's basic writing skills and English. Did you not get taught PEEL in school? Point; Evidence; Explain; and then link.

    Again I don't NEED to back up anything. If I say something is good it CAN be left at that. (Goal wasn't to prove anyone wrong). If I want a conversation I'll go in depth. Sometimes folks just want to drop their 2 cents and thats it. Again if thats not valuable to you just ignore it dude.

    I haven't talked crap to anyone at all. Nor have I been passive aggressive. That's you, not me. You're the one being condescending. (Not exactly welcoming to converse with, just sayin)
    And yes I am humoring as you're the only one here who has expressed they had an issue with my initial post to this degree.

    A simple "what do you mean by that" wouldve sufficed if folks want/care to know what I mean. This long drawn out mess you've created wasn't needed man

    Why are you on the forums? You act like a person in a group who says a random sentence, and then people have to say what that has to do with the conversation. They do this because you didn't add any context to your point.

    Your two cents aren't worth anything. It's not that it's not valuable to me. It's objectively not valuable in the English language.

    You have been passive-aggressive, trying to tell me that their projecting and playing intellectuals when it's a form of diversion from the topic. You tried to have a snip at me. You get what you put in, unfortunately.

    Doing your diligence is just the norm, and if your routine is stating objectively vague and meaningless points, it probably tells you something.

    You didn't meet the fundamental requirement of backing up your statement; therefore, you created the need. All you have to do is explain why.

    Also, I didn't create this long, drawn-out mess. We did. It takes two to have a conversation. So don't try and place blame.

    Lv 90 and main it in the current saveges.

    The story for it was good, like the new perspective on voidsent and how they're not all evil demons unable to be reasoned with. Also like how the entire Dun Scaith and Machi storyline was how bad it is for mages to form contracts with voidsent and how it always leads to betrayal or their downfall, and here is the WOL making a contract with one. Some Y'shtola actually points out in the newest quests if you play as a Reaper. And she basically says we're the exception to the rule.

    As for the job itself, it flows like like water, espesially into the burst phase of enshroud and after with little down time and pairs neatly with how the avatar attacks are on a separate cooldown and don't cancel out your own allowing for you to tag team with it nicely. The idea you can't weave GCD's into it is absurd when I do it all the time. You don't have to wait for the animation to finish so long as you see the shield pop up for arcane crest you can cancel into a different attack. Same for plentiful harvest. I agree they should re-buff arcane crest tho. Also hate how every party buff is just "number go up" when bosses have a diverse set of debuffs and buffs we don't get. Also it's the best melee DPS I am pretty sure so don't know what you mean by bad DPS. Think Samurai only beats it by a hair.

    The cons, enshroud doesn't hit very hard as well as communio despite looking like it should KO anything, Just feels like another layer to the standard combos. Could use some bigger, harder hitting finishers. Also harvest moon is neat but the cast time needs to be shortened in combat as it's next to worthless otherwise.

    What does that have to do with anything? The conversation is between you and me. Also, why would you think I'm trying to impress people? Again, explain your points; it's not complicated.

    You don't have to reply. Why does this need to be stated to you? You are doing this because you don't want to answer a simple question of why you feel others should have to ask you to explain your points when you should do it naturally. if you don't want to confuse people, you might want to do it correctly the first time.
