That said, and having given a good couple days of thought into this before posting...I still say CON has been totally effing NERFED. For once there was a magic user able to solo through a game without being USED and ABUSED by brainless weapon swingers (no I don't really feel that way, as I've played the warrior classes to endgame in FFXI and have several leveled to mid levels in this game) ...and SE IMMEDIATELY has to nerf the living hell out of us and make us dependent on the "protection" of the "party system" ...slaves to the collective, as usual. What an effing YAWN. I am SO glad I haven't paid a dime toward paying this game because they have now effectively ensured it will never be worth it. And to any "brilliant" persons who honestly think this total nerf fest separates good players from bad, I can only say I'm sorry you've missed your place in time. You'd have been happy slave holders in the American south. "Good" people of a "certain class" were forced into their "proper place" back then too! I cannot begin to express how offensive I found that comment. As a rdm in FFXI I was better than most whm's when drafted in a pinch to main heal and I subbed blm. I think I can play the game just fine, thank you. Nerfed is nerfed. It's insane to be unable to get through a 30 leve at rank 31 with good gear using all possible magic conserving spells without running out of mp 3/4 of the way through the fight. THIS NEEDS FIXED NOW!
Totally agree with you. Thanks for posting. I played RDM/BLM too.. I think anyone that DID play RDM in XI felt the relief of CON.. an active playstyle full of diversity and usefulness, freed from the brainless monotony of Refresh and Haste whore.
