testing out the epic pld update..I got a whole 10 extra HP when I went from GLA to PLD!

SE got to be joking with this right? Please tell me we are being trolled.

Could you please stop focusing on making content in this game so aoe focused?

Nothing was written about an HP boost to PLD. Just that the HP is the same on PLD as it is GLA now. Which actually is and HP boost in a sense.

Haha yeah...I just wondering what SE is thinking when WAR has 4k+ HP and PLD has like lol3k..what is the incentive to use PLD over WAR ,SE? :O

Also where is the PLD aoe? How are they useful in this game when everything is aoe oriented?

PLD/gla has a physical AoE --> Wardrum. However, the move is half (some) damage and half "Massive Enmity" (or so the description says ><) taunt against all foes it hits. Although, seems as though it needs a boost in one or both feilds (+damage and/or +emity).

Dragoon is so beyond the point of OP it's not funny.

I have 672 base attack and when Power Surge 3 is up i'm at 1,018 before food.

That actually puts it on par with other DD then, not overpowered because level correction is still a bastard.

Rampage
<Before>
Increases your attack speed and power for each physical attack against you, and restores HP for each critical hit you land.
<After>
Increases your attack speed and parry rating for each physical attack against you, and restores HP for each critical hit you land.

I could have sworn the original Rampart description said:
"Increases your attack speed and [defense] for each physical attack against you, and restores HP for each critical hit you land."

Hmm... Wait, what's the deal with Rampage?

<Before>
Increases your attack speed and power for each physical attack against you, and restores HP for each critical hit you land.
<After>
Increases your attack speed and parry rating for each physical attack against you, and restores HP for each critical hit you land.
・Effect now wears off at a faster rate.

It read defense before today's maintenance, not attack power.

Initially after the class reforms that came with 1.20:

Increases your attack speed and power for each physical attack against you, and restores HP for each critical hit you land. Effect fades upon moving or reuse. Cannot be used simultaneously with Berserk.

It read power.

Then in 1.21:

・Increases even more defense with each hit taken.
・Effect now fades over time and ends on reuse, and no longer resets upon moving.

The in-game text then read defense! Was that a mistake, or was it changed to defense?
