CNJ = WHM and THM = BLM

[Firon]

that hoses my whole background for my char. I always figured conj=elements=gridania but imagine a circle. Plus all the thaum spells suck for offense. I like being a conj from gridania, so I'm wondering how this will make sense.

You know Scourge beats every single Con spell in dmg right? also shadow sear just mops the floor with all of CON's spells

I posted a reply and it didn't show up. I'm speaking from personal experience, not baiting anyone into a which is better discussion, but personally for me, especially in short battles, banish or scourge tend to fail or be resisted by the mobs, which not only makes it a waste of time but a waste of MP since they take up double than the second tier elemental spells. The key to THAUM is supposed to be the DoT spells, but to me they are not worth casting in a short battle and even in a longer battle, the effect is not as apparent and because of the long casting times, they can be time wasters. I think it would be incredibly difficult to play with solely thaum spells and the setup is better suited to being a healer/debuffer class, since it requires better timing and more technical expertise.

Guess I should get those last 8 levels on THM, what a drag !

Also I've been told that these jobs will only really come into play for endgame content, therefore they won't really affect short battles I guess?? I'll have to keep reading.

I'm REALLY happy about CNJ being WHM~ since most Conjurers have spent most of their time as healers, it would be retarded to suddenly make it a DPS.

I didnt have any doubts that things were gonna be like that snce start, I dont even get how ppl believed that the healer would ever be BLM...

I wanted to be a white mage and I have 50 CNJ already leveled so i'm happy .

Like many hear have mentioned, who's to say that Conjurer won't still retain their elemental spells or that Black Mage has to rely strictly on said elemental magick? We have the traditional element of Final Fantasy coming in(jobs) so now let's get creative with them and make something uniquely FFXIV.

Let Black Magick be related to high science and to necromancy. Let them use ancient magicks. Change up the paradigm. If you want to use elemental magic and other related nukes, just stick with conjurer as a class and don't equip a White Mage jobstone. How about keeping the classes relevant?

Instead of QQ'ing that it doesn't fit your mold, why not speculate about the possibilities?

Yoshi and the team revealed this a long time ago quit complaining.
