BLM is still too OP

[SarkdenTepes]

Black Mages are only good if they are coordinated, and they have the proper support, whether it be a tank or healers knowing how to ward/cleanse instead of going glass cannon like a melee. BLMs also think they are sneaky sitting on top of the opposing teams ramp and nuking/CCing them when they come up. I'll admit, that is really funny, especially when they get slept and someone runs over and knocks them off.

I think the real issue is caster(and group) coordination is far more powerful than the job itself. That and the lack of 8v8(v8) matches that properly fit a regulated group like wolves denny's configuration of 1 ranged/melee/tank/healer. But restricting groups to a predefined configuration would kill things altogether, and the PVP queues are terrible as it is.

Lets face it... we all know its true..... the party with the most blms wins in slaughter. Clearly something is wrong here. Cometeor needs to be 1/2 the radius or changed to single target. Even then I think they'll still be at the top of the list. Every single round its all blms and summoners at the top of the list. Even bards which have pretty decent AoE are still only doing 1/2 the damage and 1/2 the kills as summoners and blms. Melle can barely break 50-70K damage on good runs and they're KDR is almost always negative.

well what can i say.. in secure less people played blm... its more that zerg mode "slaughter" who made it that way..

because in zerg ranged attackers have an advantage.. they dont have to move into the crowd..


and i dont think that meteor is overpowered.. as a melee dd can instant kill a player with LB I.. so..


moreover i think the "slaughter" mode is quiet unbalanced ... since its just a zerg ... and personal limit breaks are filled much too fast... i think that you gain personal LB's that fast is a much bigger problem than BLM itself.. I'd think


BLM is fine as it is.


and why Melees do less damage? they dont perform AoE attacks (single dd, single Limitbreak), they have no ranged attacks.. they have to walk to the foes in order to damage.. of course.. in a zerg they do less damage. SMN's do much damage in a total, due to AoE Damage over time... but that doesnt kill people,... so looking just at total damage numbers is completly ... (sorry)


the problem lies moreover in that zerg mode "slaughter" and the adrenaline system itself.

Thats gimped.. a BLM uses AoE "Freeze" before LB instead of sleep (which in slaughter zerg often hits just 1 player, whyever) and players already often have sleep resist on. just as a little tip ;D

Just remove achievements and mounts or make them buyable otherwise. PvP will be gone then anyway (it even now almost is, you can't enter arena and frontlines take forever). How many are playing them for fun?

PvP is full of bots, win traders, leechers, roulette players (since 100/40 a day in a few minutes is nice to have), who don't care and even cheaters (no, I won't link to hacks, but of course EVERY MMO got them). This just means: it's no PvP at all...

Pve has bots. kill seller/buyer/leechers aswell. Are you saying we should remove pve too aswell as all achievements related to it?

It'd be kinda fun if battle high and fever worked like blood for blood, might help even things out. Also as bad as blms and the lb are, they aren't the only ones exploiting the current system. Plenty of ninjas have been farming cheap kills at jumppads, myself being one of them.

This. Deal more damage and receive more damage. Why is this not a thing?
