Do you think that Picto needs a nerf?

Pictomancer does not need a nerf at all im sorry. It needs a full on rework because this job will never be balanced ever no matter how you tweak the numbers it will remain broken.

PCT is literally the last job that needs a rework because it’s the only job trying to do something different. It just needs to be nerfed to be as in line as possible

Unless we want to go back to the games most unique design being dissipation

I'd disagree. PCT is just the "build up for 2min burst" style of job design taken to an extreme. Don't get me wrong, it's a got a fun theme, looks nice, and painting to prepare your big strong motifs does feel good. But it's hardly doing anything unique in terms of job design.

I don't want PCT to lose motif painting in downtime because it does fit with the job. I just don't think the way the job plays is particularly special.

If you want an example of a unique design, well, we did have some jobs that didn't fit in with the "bursty job" meta. They were Endwalker BLM and pre-rework PLD.

That’s why I said trying to do “something” different

Loading motifs in downtime is pretty much the most unique mechanic a job currently has in this game. It’s the only job that doesn’t hate downtime, I’m not comparing it to the older jobs, I’m comparing it to the current jobs

It’s still at its core a builder spender but besides motifs we basically go back to like I said dissipation being the most unique button in the game
