COMBAT NEEDS FIXING

[ShinMetsu]

No, i don't think the combat needs to be 'fixed'.
I'm just saying i can relate and find it to be frustrating at times too, instead of bashing on the OP.
And that he is right, we are pretty helpless when it comes to incoming damage.

It's a difficult issue to fix without breaking gameplay.
If they can do it, I'm all for it.

You can't fix what ain't broken, there is nothing wrong with it. It's the way the game is, and it was the same way in XI. You can keep out of range if you're good enough with your skills on a ranged Job, but not against something you're not meant to solo in the first place.
