Not liking Frontline? Also, is there a point in brining a melee?

How much magic defense does a monk have? I know my black mage is pushing 600 in a mix of ilvl 90 and 70 gears, I read on these forums that Drgs were very low on this stat, is it the same for monks?

It's kind of funny, because all everyone does is stack Melee and healers.

What? Really? You kidding? All I ever see in my groups are Healers, Bards, Summoners, and Black Mages. I see maybe 1-2 Monks or Dragoons per game. Aside from that, every other Melee I see on my teams are Paladins, though that's probably because I'm Immortal Flames. I don't even think I've seen a Warrior on my teams, yet. <.<

Am I the only one not liking Frontline?

1. Morale is not good for the game at all. WoW has nerfed PvP power as well. Not everyone playing PvP for the gear progression like you.

2. My main is BRD and I recently is playing Monk to undertand its mechanic in Frontline. No, it is not in a mess right now. If you are refering to unable to kill a healer one vs one, it is not only meele. No DPS is able to win against healers of any kind in 1v1 at this moment. Healers can kill both BRD and BLM easy as well.

I'm starting not to enjoy Frontline just because Immortal Flames can't keep it together, even the basics and suggestions in chat fall on deaf ears. I think it needs a tutorial or something.

yea, tutorial would be great. I know there is something in DF description but it needs to tell ppl to not use PVP gear. Have seen so many ppl in i70 warwolf gear and some of them even in i55 wolf gear. They drop like flies without doing anything there. I always tell ppl to use regular pve gear but they dont listen.

im starting to feel the same way with twin adders.
i even tried to talk myself and suggest things but it goes in 1 ear and out the other
its fun when everyone tries, but losing because people arent talking or forcin B to go mid
for days and not helping others before doing so is annoying. the fun feel is slipping tbh

I can understand not being "into it" because there are no tangible end rewards if you're not interested in eventually going back to Wolves Den, or glamour, or desynthing Wolf Mark items to grind your dlvl. I thought I would hate it because there was nothing to work towards, and that I should do hunts instead because it's what I "should" be doing.

Doing too much "should" makes you burn out. I needed Frontline.

Only thing I can tell you, as a healer watching bad melee: stop chasing enemies so far. At a certain point you need to give up and regroup, unless your whole party is going with you. Focusing fire wins battles. LB'ing casters/healers isn't your only role.
