TO DEVELOPER please read this

Dear Devs,
i know,you dont look at NA forums very often,maybe you look at but in 4 month i seen about 2 or 3 dev posts so i think you prefere follow only japanese sections..it can be understood because you effectively are japanese so you dont need to practice with a foreing language.


The purpose of this post is to try to have a feedback from you about big nerf for SMN and BLM, Bards are nerfed too but you spent some words in live letters to explain why (im not talking about if its right or not just talking about facts)
Yes,im a SMN ad as all other and all other BLM we had a cold shower watching at patch notes,never talked about changes on our class,so i expected just some minor fix like cooldowns broken of ifrit or some stupid but handy things...
YOU have to understand that dont say anything about those BIG nerfs in letter,and just talking about improvments to class house dung and DONT SAY ANYTHING about the most important nerfs of the patch will make us VERY hungry!

IM NOT HERE FOR FLAME and i invite my dear forum friends to do the same,there are tons of other post where we can flame,try to keep this discussion civil and try to keetp in at top hoping some developer who know english see and report our questions or maybe give us some answers



SO DEVELOPERS the only thing WE are all asking is to KNOW WHY u made those changes,i think you dont need a list of what is screwed up,there are tons of post in jap forum too i think,but we want to know it! im smn,but i want to know for BLM too because we are so so many! and all classes are related to each other to complete high end dung like bahamut



I would like you to know that we are not here to say "DEV DO WHAT WE WANT " no,we ALL understand that the game is YOURS and you can do what YOU whant with YOUR things, but ,as summoner, i can say only one thing,me like most of other play since beta and decided to focus on a single class instead of levelling theme all like most other player,we spent 4 month grinding myth when instance servers was broken,we losed weeks for server problems (yes im gratefull for extra free days you did it well) this all for our summoner that is the most complex and brain requiring class because of the high number of skill you have to use costantly,the same reason its for BLM ,yes its an easier class to play, but has his role too...i dont think we need to remember that USUALLY low armored class are higher in dps compared on complexity to play



SO WE WILL ACCEPT EVERY EXPLANATION BUT PLEASE GIVE US ONE! YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU WANT WITH YOUR GAME BUT YOU HAVE PPL WHO PAY FOR THIS GAME AND WANTS SOME FEEDBACK,THEN WE WILL DECIDE IF STILL WANT TO PLAY SMN\BLM\BRD\DRG, AND PPL LIKE ME WHO DONT WANT PLAY MULTIPLE CLASS WILL BE A LITTLE PISSED OFF AND WILL DECIDE BY HIMSELF WHAT TO DO,CHANGE CLASS OR CHANGE GAME


yes i know that you dev will never answer to this post,im trying to have a pacific conversation,so try to help us to understand

Expecting a Dev to post here explaining why is like expecting people to dodge in duty finder Titan HM.

I actually beat Titan in the DF yesterday. Clapped IRL, miracles do happen.

On topic, I think the reason everyone is reacting so badly to SMN changes is because there was no warning. WAR, DRG, MNK, BRD - we all knew they were getting changes, and there were even some mentions of BLM. But was it ever hinted anywhere that SMN would be adjusted at all, let alone this much? With how specifically they talked about BRD and its crossclass skills, changing Thunder and Blizzard II without warning seems extra sudden. It's the kind of thing that needs explanation, like how they told us the reasoning behind BRD changes.

I just wish we would get regular freeze since we lost thunder.

Seems like by removing thunder they lowered the skill cap of the SMN class, and lowered the reward for playing it well. Sad all round, as I have a SMN and a BLM in my group. Nerf to BRD dmg, making the only buffed DPS myself. No pressure, right?

Uhh, aside from weekends (when they're off) they post almost everyday, sometimes multiple times a day across the NA forums. Dunno where you've been reading but it's in the wrong areas.

All the range nerfs, are pvp balancing.. but while they did it for pvp purposes, they screwed up pve.. and THIS is exactly what people were afraid of when they were adding pvp to this game. Would they break pve and hurt pve to try and balance pvp.

As of right now, I don't see a reason to be a SUM in pvp.

that is the reason, and that is why I always hated PVE/PVP games. They can never seem to truly balance out the two. GW2 is best I have seen so far with adjusting abilities when you pvp rather then just nerfing for both. I have no clue why more devs do not follow this.

im totally agree,but i think if they wanted us just dont use thunder in pvp,they could remove only for pvp,so there should be other reasons

i know im full of drugs but i still hope that in one of those "????????????" missions without name to dont spoiler (as they said in letter) there will be a new pet or something new for us and blm
