Looks like Square really doesn't like mass pulls.

Edit:

Wow, apparently everyone got this info at the same time.

Kneejerk reaction anyway, its not that bad

Umm, bring a Smn. 3x Painflare at 200 AoE potency>trance>Deathflare at 400 AoE potency>aetherflow>repeat.

If that's true, especially for Flare, it sucks.
Oh well, my heart was halfway towards a switch to main BRD anyway, so that just made it final =.=°

Also, Flare no longer states "ALL" MP, and looks like it has an actual (perhaps static) cost.

The tooltip always listed an actual MP cost. It still says ALL on the button.

So the first enemy hit takes 100%, second takes 90%, third takes 80%, all the way down to the fifth any anything onward that takes 50%. Also, Flare no longer states "ALL" MP, and looks like it has an actual (perhaps static) cost.

I understand nerfing the ability to do mass pulls...i dont see why they had to literally make Flare useless. It's not even worth spending MP on anymore.


There's a photo of the in-game description, but i don't want to get the person possibly in trouble.

Don't spread bologna. The MP cost didn't change for Flare, it's still All on the toolbar, all MP as the cost in the description.

We'll have to see how they change Fire II, but Flare will still be really, really freaking good. Holy too.

You need a minimum of 270mp for Flare.

Machinist + Bard MP regain may be required now for proper BLM rotation I guess
