SE: Please show MCH some love in Stormblood

[Ama_Hamada]

My main dps is mch
My second dps is blm

I completely sympathize with your friend, mch damage is so frustrating to understand. Even 2 years already it's only been the last few months that I started getting the most out of the rotations.
There's so much pre planning for mch compared to almost all classes that I've played (I've played almost every class).One advice for your friend is to not be afraid to use all or almost all her buffs before going for the big damage bursts with the reload rounds. So like use blood for blood, hawk's eye, and raging strikes before or during the big damage rotation. Sometimes I save raging strikes for when I've used all the rounds. Anyway just wanted to share that bit since I know how harsh playing a mch can be. You do more work than any dps class and the result is sometimes kind of low. I know mch is used in many raids now because of their burst damage (there's a lot of adjust/mini phases in savage raids) so burst is a good thing. But in regular content blm and even archer have better consistent damage, but mch can keep up (if you follow strict rotations).

Anyway I hope for stormblood they simplify mch by a lot. I know they wanted to make it complex so it's not like bard but for the FUN of it please simplify mch or add new gadgets so it's more different from bard. But really they need to do to mch what they did to smn from ARR to HW. Merge a lot of all that preparation into other skills and remove the % chance to trigger a bonus on next shot (this isn't fun).

And yes glam is end game, please remove gauss barrel it's ugly and ruins all guns.

She does well with wildfire, she is usually top with it and a lot of times gets close to pulling hate when it blows up. She had the "2" for a long time when we did niddy today for example when doing trail roulette.

It is the downtime and how to reuse wildfire is the issue. Also once doing light farms on a1s her friend kept asking how much the wildfire did on this one run. After she found faust.. (I think?) took 19k damage from something and guessed that was prob it, the other friend says " yeah it is likely, (my friend) hit 5k dps when that wildfire blew."
