I'm 100% for the Devs to look into peoples' suspicions. (not that my opinion matters)

It just seems like some people have already gotten banned for witch hunting (as in posting players' names) over this situation. No reason to get banned from the forums over something the Developers are actively looking into already.

Are there any PvPing Monks around? I'm having a lot of trouble really being of any use at all in PvP - specifically Frontlines. I never seem to be able to put out enough burst to out damage anyone before I'm nuked. I try to stun players in place but they wear off before I've got them down to even 50%, by that point a second DPS is breathing down my neck and I'm obliterated.

Should I be heading into skirmishes? I usually end up being focused down by multiple DPS, but if I hang back I do nothing. Who should I focus my attack on? I generally find healers invincible, tanks have too much HP/mitigation to bother with and I'm out-classed by other DPS.

At the end of the match I see multiple battle high players, 10+ kills each while I struggle to snag a killing blow on 1 or 2. It's very demoralising.

What do you guys think? Trying to make the raw damage vs offensive utility (drg + nin) less dominant?

I'm no expert, but it really should...

I didn't think we were getting any buffs to be honest, and I wasn't really sure if we needed it. Everyone used DRK for Gordias, which makes MNK less favorable, but since PLD is getting buffed, MNK should see more play just based on that.

Not sure how much this will translate into DPS, but it's a pretty big buff to Demo there, and I'm loving the insane AoE oGCD skills we have now

Man, we basically have 2 Elixir Fields now...like we needed more buffs lmao. I ain't complaining though, more damage!

I was thinking of going Ninja and our Paladin changing to Dark Knight for Midas (Savage) prog but...now I don't think our statics composition will change thanks to all these buffs Paladin and Monk got. Midas does look more Paladin friendly (hopefully).

This is actually a huge buff. If you have roughly 100% Uptime, you're looking at + ~13 Potency every 3 Seconds. (10 * 1.3 for GL). So if a fight goes on for 10 Minutes, thats ~10 (Minutes) * 60 (Seconds) / 3(Seconds per Tick) * 13(Extra Potency) = 2600 Potency throughout the fight. Its a pretty big buff, they added like 70 Potency to our strongest skill.

If you add FoF and TwinS, that's 2900 potency.
