[MCH Request] Premature Wildfire Trigger

[AxelDH]

The state that puts you on the bottom of the dps board and being the least played class. Yeah, that state...

Looking at the statistics on fflogs, Machinists tend to perform better than most DPS classes on A5 and A7, and are actually the highest performers on A6 on average. Their average DPS on A8 is on the lower end of the scale though, roughly tied with Bards.

Based on the number of recorded logs for each class over this entire raid tier, Summoners seem to be the least played DPS class, followed by Machinists.

From personal experience, I see summoners a bit more than once a week in duties, and MCHs not so much. Maybe I underestimated MCHs a bit, but I still hardly ever see any (of course I see some here and there though). I personally cannot find a way to make MCH dps good with Gauss barrel, except for the initial wildfire burst.

There is more than just 4 man instances.

Then alot of people, like me, do not run them anymore, as there is no need for more tomes.

And then is your experience very limited. Your MCH is not 60. You don't know how to play MCH, as you said yourself. You have not done Midas normal very often. You have not finished welping City at all. No Thordan Ex. No Sephi Ex. No Nidhogg Ex. No Savage.

So where is your "relevant" experience to say they are "on the bottom of the dps board"?

You have clearly no idea what you're talking about. MCH is in a REALLY good place at the moment and outperforms BRD by a significant amount, and even some of the other jobs in certain duties.

I don't really play machinist but a raid mate dies and I think this would be a great idea.
