    Impact of 2.1

    I play DRG as a main and haven't had too much time to play with other classes and I'm just curious how other people see their class impacted damage wise.


    I know Summoners, Bards, and BLMs thought the changes would be negative whereas Monks and Dragoons thought they'd be positive.


    Just curious what people are seeing.

    There is little to no difference in party pve combat unless you are pushing a job to its peak potential. In which case blm got the worst of it. Brd got dmg reductions but procs blood letter more often it seems. Thunder was lost to smn but assuming the other dd are placing dots as well that is 1 of 18-20 that should be on any mob worth using bane on anyway.

    I felt like Blood Letter was proc'ing more too and couldn't explain it o.O Either way casters and range all got slight nerfs, melee all got buffs but nothing really changed too much.

    Every DRG and MNK are smiling, while trying to not smile too hard so that they keep their new Christmas early Christmas gifts.

    In my experience so far I have notice a slight to moderate dip in my damage depending on how many CD are up. Before 2.1 I could manage crits from heavy shot with all cd's popped at just over 500 points of dmg. Now max i have reached so far ticked in at 470ish. Without any cd's up the nerf if much more noticable however. So much so that in some cases I'm embarrassed to come into certain content as a BRD.

    Those numbers are not from a parser. I play on PS3 and can only give you the numbers i see tick off after each hit lands. We are attempting out weekly coil run tonight so I'll have a better idea then. As it stands right now....if you manage to get a well coordinated group together that now each of their jobs and can play them to potential then the BRD will still do okay.

    in short...yes....i feel the nerf and it sucks....but I'm determined to try and have fun.
