T5 Nerfed

SE uses Ego Hit.

It's supper effective!

I agree with people who are upset with the nerf. The thing is, we're in the era of theme park MMO's and casual gaming in general. If you try to defend hardcore content, all these casuals will bombard you with insults. SE will listen to these whiners that whine about everything - pharos sirius nerfs, king moogle primal nerfs, AK nerfs, coil nerfs, etc etc. These nerfs will keep coming because these people will keep complaining. They're the same kind of people who want to sub for a month and want to clear all content to get the most out of their money, not the experience. Hardcores want to stay subbed longer and want the most out of experience. There's an opposite way of thinking and SE is in favor of casuals because they happen to populate this game more than any other MMO. Can't blame them with these decisions because it's what they are stuck with.

pharos sirius nerfs, king moogle primal nerfs.

Eh in the case of these 2 for the target audience they were too hard.

I never did much Pharos due to not needing the gear but that place doesn't seem very "relic gear friendly"

Moogle's dps check was insane for the target players. We walked in and 1 shot it to remove the quest from our log but even then. We weren't beating the phase 1 dps check by a mile like we should have since the people that event is designed for are walking around with fresh 50 gear/weapons. By the time a group would have the gear for the dps check they would have better weapons.

Wait so.. people are upset about t5 nerf, but they got their rot strategy back since they apparently buffed t2. You cant have everything guys. Especially when casuals are now in the mmo picture. You all complain too much.

T2 enrage nerf/buff/whatever: "Hahahahahahahaha!"
T5 "nerf": "OMGWTFSE."

because they finally fix T2 we should be WTF? Enrage mechanics are supposed to kill you not make the fight easier.

Yes they need to stop pandering to the lowest common denominator and using the "if everyone can't do it it's too hard" mentality.

Then Turn 4's enrage should just automatically wipe everyone. Ever hear of "Soft Enrage"?

here is the fault with that, a soft enrage should still wipe the party. Not instantly, but shouldn't be able to keep it going on and on and on..

The biggest issue is that people who couldn't even understand the concept of passing rot were just plowing it, completely avoiding the mechanics in the fight. Unintended.. When you're getting people in pugs who say "I've never done it that way" then there is an issue.

I think conflags needed to be nerfed. The dps check on them was quite ridiculous.

Can't tell if you are serious or not? The conflags were hardly a big dps check.

inb4 Twisters cast speed and dreadknight hp nerf.

[Starkbeaumont]

reading about a 33% reduction of conflag HP, which is a lot...

oh btw anyone ran pharos today and checked if it's already toned down? would be funny if not, since they were talking about it but never about t5 before patch 2.2
