Samurai AoE

[Velaethia]

Could Samurai's first AoE be swapped with that defensive they get at level 6. I am unsure why we need that defensive at level 6. It's very frustrating not having any AoE in low level dungeons. Could Ninja get a similiar treatment? I feel like all dps jobs should have an aoe by level 15.

DRG: first time?

Shhhh. Don't bring SE's attention back to SAM. You never know what they might take next. Any situation that involves SE changing a class is pretty much making a wish on a monkey's paw -- you may get your wish, but it always comes with a price.

Hopefully they merge guren and w/e the single target skill and shoha and shoha 2 into one skill. No reason for them to be multiples.



Oh, and removing namakiri and putting midare back to its pre-6.0 potencies would be nice.

It is my opinion that at the very least, every dps and tank job needs their 123 for both ST and AoE by level 15 at the latest or so.

In fact, were it up to me, I'd shift like 80 to 90% of the abilities gained from 1 to 90 to the 50-60 mark rather than drawing it out. Will it make later levels feel less rewarding? Maybe. But it would alleviate a lot of the issues re: early gameplay being seen as exceedingly boring. It'd also up the ante on the learning curve, forcing people to adapt quicker.

It would be really cool if the game was coded to recognize when there are one or more enemies on your enemy list and change the animation based on that value. I'm actually quite sure they could do that, it would just take a little effort. But that would be a great way to consolidate these kind of skills across the board.

I'm honestly surprised they haven't already consolidated a number of skills. SAM is just one example of a job that could do with a little button consolidation.

Or honestly just give every OGCD the 'paladin' treatment like Spirit's Within when it upgrades.
450 potency to first target, 60% cleave to the rest.

Best way to clip the ability bloat.

Nah, kaiten was fine going. It added no depth to the job.



Honestly I think they need to look at the jobs anyway and maybe reconsider some skill effects and placement. Goring blade is a dumb skill now.
