This isnt working, we need to try something else (Kaiten Post)

[xAFROx]

Please be more specific,

And I do respond to threads freely as much as anyone has & vice versa.

What exactly am I doing that’s Trolling given how I am in opposition to you & most of anyone’s SAM that still persist on about SAM given the current live letter’s highlights not mentioning it?

Then again your determination is admirable but fruitless

Are you aware that job changes don't get covered in much detail until part 2 of the live letter? That's exactly how it was for the one leading up to 6.1 and same for other prior patch cycles.

Yes,

Till now it is what it is & we’ll wait yet to see

part 1 of the live letter mentioned changes to auto-crit working with crit buffs. auto-crit was, afaik, a mostly-unused mechanic until SAM's overhaul. in particular, after 6.1, a complaint was that SAM was no longer a candidate for DNC's Dance Partner as DNC's crit buffs were incompatible with a major part of SAM's kit. The timing heavily implies that SAM is NOT getting Kaiten back and that the changes will NOT be reverted.

hence, the outcry about the live letter from myself and a few others. furthermore, if we wait until things are officially announced to start complaining about SAM's changes, chances are they will not be reverted at all. Now is the time to ask the devs, as things are not set in stone and can be changed.


that the Porta Documana's Heart of Sabik's English bug is not fixed after 10 years implies that the devs do not speak English by and large, which means if we are to be heard we must go to where they can actually read - the JP forums


all of that combines into this post - a plea to the community to go to the JP forums so we can show them that the majority opinion is against SAM's 6.1 changes before patch 6.2 "fixes the problems with the job," making it have 0 chance of ever being reverted. This is likely our last chance to have our opinions be heard.

the thing that bothers me is that the outcry for Kaiten and SAM in general has been overwhelming, when it happened every post (bar 1 or 2) was filled with SAMs crying out for them to reconcider.
not many believed that they would instantly just revert, knowing how this game is coded that would likely just break the game in half, sure you had a few but the main issue that I have and I believe many others is the absolute radio silence on the issue.
they could've easily posted something along the lines of "we've heard your pleas all over the forums" blablabla, instead nothing, also yeah, it'll be till 6.2 part 2 LL till we get more concrete changes. (also apparently more reasoning behind a given change)


1 thing that did stood up out to me was that they were postponing the AST and DRG reworks, tells me that they have seen the backlash and are like "maybe this isn't the correct way"
