    More complex rotations with Heavensward

    Not going to go indepth with them.

    But due to many players cannot even grasp the pretty simple rotations we have already. How wil they manage when the rotations have more complexity with the ability descriptions in the live letter?

    It is kinda worrying for DF and for potential future, harder content.

    Also I see a sharp increase in BRD deaths due to minuet :P "Mu DPS!"

    There's a lot of stance switching, especially for the tanks. Doesn't affect me though since I already do that but for new players it might be a little much. Also I love the new dps war stance "Deliverance" and "Raw Intuition" hopefully can be mitigated with Awareness to stop the crit from the sides.

    Full list on the digest thread here

    Stance-switching is par for the course for us PLDs, so on that end things are not changing much. Depending on what the DoT combo is like, I might end up ignoring it in favor of Halone (which in effect means my rotation wouldn't change unless I'm off-tanking). We'll see how this goes, but my semi-arthritic hands are not looking forward to it. >.>

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.
    * Design ideas:
    Red Mage - COMPLETE (https://tinyurl.com/y6tsbnjh), Chemist - Second Pass (https://tinyurl.com/ssuog88), Thief - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/vdjpkoa), Rune Fencer - First Pass (https://tinyurl.com/y3fomdp2)

    We need more complexity in combat. We can see the difference between really good and really bad players esp to MNK's...the few that's we got lol.
    OFF-TOPIC: Anyone know what the Oath cast for Paladin was called and does?

    It'll certainly add a wider gap between "people who are playing a class" and "people who're playing a class well", but I'm personally fine with it?
