TGS Live Letter Discussion

2.4 will hit what mid-late October, so i am thinking they will wait longer to release info.
And we all want Rogue/Ninja

[mbncd]

I think dex makes the most sense for agility and hand symbol based skills/magic/whatever.

[silentwindfr]

since DEX is only for ranged attack it make no sense at all...
stats was already definite at the release... try to make different will only lead to weird stuff like the monk in the V1 (monk was str/int based) since rog/nin are melee class the logical choice is STR, by the way the monk in it definition it's too an agile class, since it's based on speed and accurate attack, but it's still STR.

They are not going to give that information because it has economic ramifications; If they said Ninja uses Strength, people would stock up on Strength gear for leveling it before it's even out.

In all likelihood though, they'll use Strength. Ninja should be on Fuma, I guess there is a chance they could do something like give us a reskinned Fuma with Dexterity or something, but that certainly isn't the logical thing to do...

we often keep gear for multi class, and anyway, it's mustn't be that bad to know this... or do they plan to make all the person that decide to switch of main spend 2 month for catch back the other class?
another point that bother me greatly, the relic quest... indeed you have some part you can prepare before hand, like atma and novus, but some part will be quite long for catch. and on the long terms, the new class/jobs added at the 3.0, will have the go throught the whole process for get them relic to the same step than the other class, i don't even want to imagine the pain in the ass if they don't think a bit more before add more long phase of upgrade.

that's no different than new ppl starting to play now. they would have to start relics the same way.
and every relic you want to start, is the same way.
and...you can easily get ilv100 wep at least, with sol.
and you can get new tome gear, at same pace as every else, so it's not like you're gonna fall behind.
and it's not like relic is any good anyway. it took almost 6months for relic to become as good as coil weps, so you'll have 6months to make relic useful, in 2.4x
and why would new classes/jobs need to automatically catch up to everyone else?

Stop saying DEX is only for ranged attacks... The client says that because Archer/Bard is the only Class/Job that uses DEX, so saying it affects anything than Ranged attacks, would make no sense.

They could just change that info and make Ninja DEX based. Definition of Dexterity: Skill and grace in physical movement, especially in the use of the hands;

Punching your targets with fist weapons require raw power(Strength, MNK), using daggers in the graceful way that Ninjas do, should require dexterity.

I don't understand how this would lead to weird stuff like in V1... There shouldn't be any mixed main stats on chars, and Ninja using DEX wouldn't change the other jobs in the game in any way.

Either way I don't really give a sh't... Who cares what they will use? They will probably not share any armor with other jobs anyways, and it wouldn't make a difference if it says Strength or Dexterity...

no date yet?

the new dungeon look amazing that music

i want one

[Skapoc]

Shiva and the new dungeons look cool and all but we couldn't get a sneak peak at maybe some of the new coil stuff? A lot of us were very disappointed with next to no info on the next coil. Even some concept art or pics of the new armor/weapons would have been enough.

Yeah, it's a bummer, but they were clearly holding back. Screenshots/videos of other content, like the main scenario and Hildibrand quests were left out, too. Even in the dungeon and Shiva videos all you got to see was scenery.

I'm sure we'll get proper preview videos of everything closer to the patch.

overall a dissapointing live letter and i feel like they are delaying the patch because of fan fest.
