Beastmaster class is underwhelming

It just feels to me that people have a different perspective on Solo than what was actually intended. Solo in the case of BST is referencing the fact that generally all of the content the job can do, or is intended to do, is doable solo by the BST. Solo in the case of BST does not mean, and wasn't intended to mean, it's strong enough to just go around and stomp everything you want to do by itself.

And we already have BLU for that. What's even the point of another limited job if it's gonna do the same things as the previous one.

It's bad enough that all regular jobs play the same, we don't need it for limited jobs as well.

If you think PCT plays the same as RPR or BRD I'm afraid you're cooked friend.

I think the reason it took so long might be that they just couldn't find a way to make it fun (game idea that sounds cool on paper but doesn't really work out so well in practice is a tale as old as time), but since they announced it they had to release it anyway.

Apparently if I understand correctly with that interview, they removed the person working on it for a year or two in DT, and replaced him with Ozma to complete the content.
Ozma decided that he couldn't make heads or tails with the turn based system imagined by his predecessor, so he tried to respect the core idea and completed it with his own take.

Obviously when this happens this means if not a total change of direction, at least a significant partial change, which means a lot of additional time and resources required to see it to completion.

You should re-read what they wrote.

I am not fan if the combo system, getting tp takes too long.

No I can read. They said all jobs play the same which they factually do not.

Okay, so you just wanted to have a debate on regular jobs then?

They stated something and I replied with the fact that I disagree and that it is factually untrue.

Do you plan on nitpicking every post I make just be insufferable?

Half of this thread needs to do Crucible and come back later to actually give some informed judgement lol. The amount of CC you gotta stack on the Ymir fight, especially on lower ranks, is genuinely hilarious.

It's an MMO. Massive. Multiplayer. Everything instanced should be ignored.

I'm pretty positive on the job overall, but this is a common complaint about the job I actually do agree with. I don't think there's anything specifically wrong with the combo system itself, but it does feel like it takes too long to really get things rolling. TP accrual should be faster and the combo chains more frequent. It would also be nice if at least some of the more utility based Beasts had shorter cooldowns so that you were encouraged to rotate through them faster. There's a little too much downtime for my tastes and I'd hope we at least see a trait at some point to speed everything up.
