What the changes to War, Drg and Mnk really mean...

[Rochetm]

There will be a bunch of war, drg and mnks that are even worse than they currently are. The majority that play these three jobs are really bad and they are making them more complicated. On top of that by buffing them they are labeling them OP but bads who are going to flock to the new OP jobs...

You are about to see so many bad war/drg/mnk its going to make you sick.

Maybe on your server... almost all the ones I have partied with here are just as good as any other job. Maybe stop DFing everything :P

You know, changes which makes ppl think they are OP.

Not 100% sure, but melee DPS gets 10% dmg increase I think.

DPS*

Which is a lot less than a straight 10% damage increase.

My brain just melted......

Lol I was thinking the same thing when I read that post.

What the hell is the difference between 10% dps increase vs a 10% damage increase.

A 10% increase to dps is exactly the same as a 10% damage increase. If you are doing 100 dps, you will do 10,000 damage in 100 seconds. If you do 110 dps, in 100 seconds you will do 11,000 damage. A 10% damage increase to 10,000 damage is 11,000.

Aside from the 10% thing, that I don't think we really know what form that will take, Dragoons are gonna get the animation time on their jumps cut in half for a much faster execution. The WAR changes have been outlined in great detail in that WAR thread in the tanking subforum.
