Patch Notes Up

Except I have zero mp issues in T11. Its not a resource issue, its a our-single-target-sustained-dps is garbage issue

Well, throwing back the same argument on why BRD's DPS is on the bottom of the food chain back to the SMNs - you guys have more mobility than your brother BLM and access to Ruin II

I guess it is a trend - when you are given mobility, you have to eat some dent to your DPS potential.

low? If you have low DPS I think your playing SMN wrong. You do realize dots alone can reach 500+ a tick right? Then add in your pet, then add in your own DPS after Dots, and you could really be doing a lot of damage. The only difference is that is sustained dmg over time, rather than big spurts of numbers. I dont parse, but Ive seen good SMN's annhilate stuff and leave the other DPS in their tracks.

Ive cleared FCoB and parsed above 480 on every turn so yeah I know how to play SMN. I'll grant that outside of coil SMN is really good on many fights. But at the end of the day our sustained single target damage is pathetically low, there is something fundamentally wrong when MNK/BLM/NIN/DRG can all hit 530+ on T11 and SMN struggles to even hit 500.

Mmm relic 135. Let's see how long it takes for Dreadwyrm weapon owners to whine about it.

That's something I rarely, if ever, see. Most people who have worked to gain their Dreadwyrm weapon have long since obtained their relic, and are happy about this, because it allows them to have a perfectly statted BiS weapon, instead of "spell speed for summoners" weapon.

There were a lot of complaint threads when the Nexus update came out making the relic the same ilvl as high allagan. Not that the forum complainers represent the majority of any side.

Like you said though, the forums represent a vocal minority. People who are happy about the addition are unlikely to make a post on the forums, whereas people who are unhappy more than likely will.

LOL you obviously didn't see all the whine posts back when Nexus was revealed to be i115 (as in the same as High Allagan). You could have filled an ocean with the tears.

There are people who have worked to gain it for a long time but don't have it. Relic is at least certain.

[MilesSaintboroguh]

Exactly. When Nexus was on par with HA weapons, people cried that a "casual" weapon shouldn't be as powerful as a coil weapon. Oh the laughs that were had.
