MAGE STRIKE

[Chardrizard]

None of my LS's mages complains as well, i am happy thwy switched my THM role to a more party oriented and focus on debuff on fights rather than i-can-do-anything-mage.

I'm afraid that for my first post ever I am going to jump on the good update bandwagon. THM seemed pretty over powered to me and cure spamming made most mobs, NMs included, way too easy to take down. Granted I have no mage job past 23 so this is just my perception.

I have been playing since open beta and regularly read forums and lodestone. One thing i have to point out, SE pretty much said this was coming. Multiple posts/letters indicated they were going to adjust abilities and better define party rolls. If one has cure and one has sacrifice, which did you think was going to get their heal abilities nerfed?

Bottom line I am pleased with the changes made to mages and hope people will give them more than a day before joining any boycott/forum flame.

Respectfully,

Have no fear Neptune. They keep saying we're whining/complaining but when they die in battle, because we don't have enough MP to make "miracles" happen then the whining will be a shared effort.

You can manage your MP any way you want but it also depends on the rest of your party and how they play. Sometimes it just doesn't work the way you want it to. I'm not saying it should be easy enough to spam cure aoe but at least don't drastically raise the cost of cures all at once.

Are you kidding? Is this your first MMO? lol

They'll be yelling at you that you're an idiot and you didn't conserve MP enough.
They won't think maybe they pulled too much enmity.

Maybe I have a jaded XI experience with dooshbag elitist damage dealers.
Where I'm from, it was always the WHM's fault and on some occassions, the PLDs.
No matter what, really.

Haha I totally agree Shai. I was just being sarcastic. I remember the XI days and of course the tankers seems to think they are invincible so the poor white mage slaves had to dish out cures like there was no tomorrow.
