Class Reforms and Action List, Pugilist perspective

[Aratharn]

Well CNJ and THM have some abilities/spells that aren't exclusive that may help:

CON Abl. 2 --- Temporarily halves enmity and gradually restores MP.
THM Mag. 2 --- Restores MP in proportion to damage sustained. Casts cannot be interrupted while effect is active.

Also BRD has an AoE MP regen (Mages Ballad)

They may bump the MP pool up, too. Just have to wait and see how it all plays out.

HAHAHAHAHA You guys don't wait really

Well, this thread was meant as more of a discussion. I mean I would hope the devs or community reps would look in the class discussion boards for....class discussions.

Basically though, I'm probably not going to play as Monk in a party unless a Bard is present lol.

i think its all looking pretty cool. as i and some other's tried to point out on the thread that demanded the release of this info. we can give a little feedback of what we think. but truely we don't really know enough to judge yet. we have no idea of how strong these magic moves will be, how fast they use up the magic or how much magic our absorb moves gets back. so assuming that the balance is good and it all works well i can't wait.

do we all think the, is pug a evade tank feeling is now dead?

The problem is hybrid classes in all MMOs turn out to be useless. I doubt SE will be the first to get it right. It all seems a bit bizarre to me, to be honest. That said I am certainly going to give it a try before I write it off. It just seems... disappointing when all the other classes seem to have a clear and defined role. Seems like we're turning into FF11s drg.

As for the last part: I'd be very surprised if we were tanks at all anymore.

You guys are crazy. I think PGL/MNK has some of the most unique and interesting abilities. Cant wait to try it out.
