Massive fail by Matsui - telling melee range to suck it up for not getting invites

His response needs more "crystal tools limitations"

i do dungeon 45 with marauder tank and we complete it
idk the readon why people wanna nerf arc???
arc is expensive
for melee clases damage is free
the solution, not nerf arc, put melee clases buff for damage mitigation

Or... neither of those solutions. Simply continue to give Melee other useful roles and ways of increasing their damage while using existing mechanics to manage AOE damage. Which is what they seem to be doing.

How is it ever fair, when a class can do as much damage, and often more than you, and can do it without being in immediate harms way. The balance here is Archer's have little defense. That doesn't really matter when you avoid the damage altogether and if you have hate, can easily withstand short term damage until the tank pulls hate off.

Have AoE effects that target the ground under melee or ranged players, randomly chosen. Give bosses temporarily shield skills that reflect ranged/magic damage.

Every other modern MMO developer has come up with or copied ways to keep ranged fighters on their feet, why can't SE? Show some creativity outside of cone and AoE attacks.

If your own shell wont take you because your melee, its called being elitist pricks

when you make a group of people you dont know, that may be acceptable, but people in your shell are supposed to be your friends, shows how much they care about you when you dont get invites

granted, meelee may get the short end of the stick in some stuff, but you cant fully blame the game mechanics on that the dungeon CAN be done without all ranged people just refuse to try

i have to dissagree with this. many many shells in FFXI as well as guilds in other MMOs are entirely focused on getting business done and thats it. then players go back to their social shells or alts.
im not saying this is true for everyone, but it is very prevalent.

but its funny when people complain about their shells doing it
if you dont like your shell doing it, get another shell obviously....one that actualy cares about its players and not just its elitist runs
