Regarding open world Heavy

[DarkStar]

I see the Trolls are out in force lately...

On Topic: The only thing more annoying than a monster you could pummel into a greasy smear on the ground impotently flailing away at you is when they actually manage to inflict Heavy on you with said impotent flailing. Sometimes I'll dismount and do Eorzea a favor by removing them from the gene pool, other times I'll just keep riding on and wonder why SE ever thought this would make me think the open world was dangerous, when it clearly isn't.

I do them all the time, I still don't see your issue, I can avoid pretty much all agro if I actually use my eyes and survey my suroundings instead of burying my head into my map display.

the few Sylphs that are hard to avoid agro can also be easilly outrun long before you get the heavy debuff, it's not the first hit that applies the debuff.

Sometimes it is the first hit. That's the problem.

I love how people are actually defending Heavy.

I love how people are actually this upset about something that only lasts for a few seconds.

20seconds and is usually enough to drag anything that wouldn't of agrod at normal speed on to you, why does it concern you so that a lot of people are unhappy with it

Why does the fact that I think it's a silly thing to be upset about worry you so much?

20 seconds for starters, and then if you're unlucky like I am, you'll get another stack on you just as it's about to wear off. Back to there is no good reason to have mobs inflict this in the first place.

I'd be totally fine with the mobs attacking you and doing damage as I think that would keep people from loitering on their mounts in a pack of high level mobs, but as it is now, the heavy effect is just an annoyance.

I love how people don't realize those seconds add up to minutes.

omg! this is taking minutes to finish!

I'm all for removing it completely but i would be fine even if they just cut the duration in half.
