MAGE STRIKE

[Neptune]

-Did you level Thaumaturge or Conjurer to cap to find out your role is now reversed?
-Are you thrilled with the idea of casting Sacrifice 3 five separate times to get the effect you used to get from 1 cast?
-Are you pissed that healing magic now costs 130 MP while your broken nukes still cost 20-30 MP?
-Does it make sense that DoW have auto attack at their range but you don't have it at your range?
-Does it make sense that DoW can use their abilities on recast timers but healing magic can only be used a very small amount of times per fight?

-Are you upset about 10 second recast on your normal attack?
-Are you upset about 30 second recast on your normal aoe attack
-Are you upset that now you have no practical alternative to being a main healer?
-Are you looking forward to sitting out of fights while you regen MP, while the rest of your party keeps playing?
-Did you level Thaumaturge or Conjurer to cap to be a debuffer or nuker and now find that you are nothing more than a WHITE MAGE playing whack-a-mole?
-Is it fair to have to sit on the sidelines, whereas before you could be using abilities, debuffing, buffing, or causing damage over time?
-Is it fair that you can't generate mana but your allies can generate TP?

I ASK YOU! Are you tired of having your playstyle dictated to you by changing rules?

Then MAGE STRIKE is here. Send a message to the dev team that you expect a quality of play on parity with other classes, that you don't want to be locked into White Mage, either by the job system or by high MP costs that make your healing spells take top priority in MP management. Send a message that you want an ACTIVE playstyle, limited only by yourself, not frivolous restrictions. Demand CUSTOMER SERVICE, not "we will look into it".

And if you want to condemn the voices of others, ask yourself if you would like to sit outside combat in passive mode regenerating TP before you could take action in the fight.. let he who would regenerate TP outside of combat cast the first stone.

Yea good luck with that.

I see your anger Neptune and I've seen your posts around the forums lately, maybe you just need a break from this game dude.

You're getting very pent up over things and it's not healthy, heck, I know how you feel cause I'm kind of there too.

I agree, mages are messed up and stupid and this patch is an incomplete mess but don't let it get to you. It's better to maybe give it a couple more days to see how it really is for you or just watch from a distance and don't torture yourself.

Just my opinion =(

I have no problem with that because my LS has competent Conjurers and Thaums.

lol.. yes it is true. As someone else said, my favorite toy is broken. On the other hand, the things I could do if I sold my gaming rig.. *thinks of cash piling up*

I'm kinda happy with the updates.

Supply and demand will be the test. I'm betting that many people will no longer be interested in mages with these changes, and while people in large, established LSes may not have trouble finding healers for their groups, everyone else will be screwed.

Plays mostly THM (@30 because of quitting over the lst 9 months off and on due to broken mechanics.ie: Broken leves that you just repeat and fail with zerg tactics) I am very happy with the changes. THMs can't do everything anymore and Cons have a needed place.

[alexi14]

I agree. I like the changes too
