    Perma heavy in Eorzea

    Can we please, please, please introduce some immunity or diminishing return for the effect "Heavy" that mobs throw at us?
    Riding through the mines in Outer La N or the woods in the East Shroud or wherever else and getting perma heavy makes me want to strangle a puppy.

    You get hit by a 20 sec debuff, ride on, get hit again which resets the debuff to 20 sec again, and again, and again, and again....the best thing is really when it already counted down to 3 sec and WHAMM there it is again >.>

    There might be people who actually enjoy it....can't say I am one of them though. So, how about it? I not whining for it to be completely removed but a diminishing return would only be fair.

    With hunting being so popular nowadays, I suppose that more people have had the pleasure of experiencing this.

    Heavy isn't just a skill. Heavy is a skill chain/combo.

    It goes something like this: Heavy / Heavy / Heavy / Heavy / Heavy / Heavy / Heavy / Heavy
    *97 pages later*
    .....Heavy / Heavy / Heavy

    This is a complex combination of moves that is passed down by the great beastman Gods and to take it away would be to deny their faith sadly....

    And if the beastmen could be played by the players, there would still be some that manage to mess up their rotation.

    What I find funny about the beast tribes is that I have maximum friendship with all of them thanks to the Beast tribe quests. But still, as soon as I leave their camp, they are all over me, aggoing me, trying to kill me. And put the devastating Heavy on me. Must be really good friends! Imagine what they would be like if you were not their friends. Oh wait......

    When I started the first series of tribe quests, I was hoping that in the end, when I am their best friend, they will just leave me alone and stop aggroing me. Boy, was I naive.

    ...are you for real? You should go back and actually read the quests. It explains quite clearly why this was not going to happen.

    It help to read the quests text. You are only friendly to a small group of the tribes (outsiders or rebells), not to all.

    This happens to me as well, and it drives me crazy. These monsters aren't hard, nor pose any threat, but it's just a pure annoyance when you're trying to get somewhere fast.

    Try and run behind mobs instead of just tearing through aggroing everything.

    Also on DRG "Elusive Jump" sheds the heavy effect so this might work for other hate shedding abilities. I dismount > face the mob > elusive jump away from it > remount.

    It only happen if you get hit in the back while mounted.
    But the devs could change it back to how it was in 1.0, so only the mount get heavy and not the player.
