Outstanding, really.

6.5 addressed a lot with the pink tutu wearing white mage

Ah, gotcha. I only saw the previews and didn't realize it was physical only as I haven't played my Ninja yet this expansion. Thanks for clarifying.

did you actually read the patch notes? it didn't say anything about a song needing to be played.....it said that party members dont need to be under the effect of a song. All that means is that if you are out of range of the bard's song, you will still get the buff for battle voice. I do find it funny that no one mentioned the huge fix for machinists.

7.0.1???

Gosh are we in 2024??? LMAO

In a serious note hope they bring back sustain and miasma 2 for SMN

We're on 7.3 n-

Oh, wrong game.

the more important thing that was left out was that housing isn't being released until 4.1 /sadface.

It blows my mind that they find buffing a NIN potency (a class thats fine to begin with) more important than fixing other classes that have more important issues like MCH & DRG.

Bhavacakra used to mistakenly classified as physical damage instead of magic damage. This meant that Bhava was amplified by Dripping Blades, which only affects physical damage, and Slashing debuff. This gave Bhava a total potency of 726 before counting buffs like embolden and brotherhood.

Now that it's magic, it is no longer affected by the aforementioned traits and abilities above. Effectively, the base of Bhava went from 726 potency based off the ninjas kit to 600. So this is a nerf in the form of a bug fix.

It's a nerf.
