For the Love of the TWELVE Can We Get a Proper Elemental Wheel?

[Synapse]

After all this scientific talk, I feel the need for a CO2 spell.
Better yet, let's change the name from wind to Carbon Dioxide, so we can suffocate enemies.

No need to change it, high O2 concentration or high wind speed is enough to suffocate/kill.

I don't think it needs to change really, although with Water missing from the skill update list it does leave a big hole.

Only as big a hole as there was for Blizzard V, etc. in patches on FFXI--wait for cap increase.

There is nothing wrong with the current elemental wheel(s).

Go dump a bucket of water on a match and tell me that fire is not weak to water.

Don't know if its been said yet but consider this:

No wind = no oxygen = no fire

Maybe those Aero Spells are pulling the oxygen out of the fire instead of "blowing" on the fire.

And a side note: I use Earth to put out my camp fires, and Wind to blow out candle fire...so by that principle:

Water>Fire
Wind>Fire
Earth>Fire
Fire>Ice
Ice>Wind
Wind>Earth
Earth>Thunder
Thunder>Water

Turns out Fire is SoL. And Wind and Earth are the strongest elements, being able to trump two different elements, funny that they belong to the healer class! lol

Good god I can't believe we now have 5 pages of people whining that one made up fantasy magic property was more sensible and better than the next.

Do you guys even realize how ridiculous this topic is?

What's worse is that people straight up want to copy something out of FFXI. Doesn't this game have enough FFXI copy-pasta already?

[OMEGA_HACK]

Actually it has very little copy-pasta. The don't even have Carbonara in the game yet! (see wut I did thur?)

Seriously, what all is copy-pasted? Auto-attack? Job names (because what they do is not the same as XIs Jobs), classic FINAL FANTASY icons? (Summons, chocobos, airships...)

Oh my so much copy-pasta, we need more Italians!

Same races, same naming structure, port city, forest city, desert city, same beast men. Granted, Yoshi's trying really hard to differentiate FFXIV's lore from FFXI's and to prop it up in its own unique way. Why would we want to copy FFXI's elemental wheel when FFXIV's is just fine?
