Shots Fired: A Machinist Guide

Full time GB has given me a dps loss of anywhere from 20-30 compared to what I was doing in my video. Right now the damage bonus from gauss is way too low to ever justify keeping it on beyond the initial burst, especially in current content.

Agreed. Gauss might be able to do more damage on a dummy, but once movement is introduced you either need to be lucky with procs or spamming feint while you run. I really hope they fix the damage.

brds just got an official response from dev in the Japanese forums about their dps

MCH WHEN AND WHERE?

but seriously if they don't say anything in the next day or so I'm gonna go full blown switching to another class or just stop playing really I just wanted one class to 60 and start on gathering and crafting now I can't even do that right now cause i have to slowly level alts.

Calm down guys. I hope that MCH will receive the same attention as BRD. Basically, if MCH can't move as a BRD, so increase it's dmg.

Also a bit about waiting for player feedback from Alexander before committing any further changes

Lol I laughed. Because current feedback is not enough? Players abandoning the class left and right and barring MCH and BRDs from parties is not enough feedback? Good laugh for the morning

He is saying thats all they are going to fix for now, and then going to see what players say about it during Alexander.

there is currently no reason to bring a mch to in a raid anymore over a brd and or another dps.
like they just made our dps worst and you think people are gonna allow mch in their groups knowing that?

If they do not buff them along with the BRDs yes I can see this statement being true.

its already that way a number of people are basically get kicked from bismarck ex including my self one time even thou a smn was doing far less dmg then me and they did not get kicked. luckily I found a better group half hour later that day clear it went into ravana ex same day clear it that night and have ton of ravan ex clears under my belt if i didn't have those under my belt I don't think any group would of accepted me into ravana.ew

If they make changes to BRD and don't do anything for MCH I will truly be upset. *sigh* Not looking forward to keeping GB on either but regardless I'm still turning it off during high movement lol.
