30sec DoTs only tick 10x. So its not 400 extra. <_< Its only 100 extra. 200 if you combine both DoTs.

In other words:
Old- 40 × 10(30secs) = 400
New- 50 × 10(30secs) = 500

Well. I think with these changes, I may finally step away from MCH. Don't get me wrong, these changes seem to be an overall DPS increase, but I'm one of the few who enjoyed 4.0 MCH a lot, who felt that it may need just some numbers tuning and less punishment, as the system seemed to punish itself. Instead now we have...this. If I wanted to have another build-up-to-super-mode DPS, I'll finish leveling up an RDM. I'll play around with it later, but...yeah, I think I'm gonna go back to my old main of bard.

You didn't read the post, did you? It's an extra 400 potency per minute, because why would you ever let your dots expire?

Unless they are planning to completely revamp SMN in 4.1 I see no reason to not make some very needed QoL changes right now like Bahamut being able to damage while moving/standing still all the time or giving SMN a way to keep pets alive/make pets immune to aoe and cleave at once.

Lol not holding my breath for SMN anymore the buffs were nothing and waiting till 4.1 which will be like what October time frame is just a waste when these problems should have been addressed in 4.05 here we are two months in and the job is still a damn pariah for end game content....MCH buffs are okay but still going to need a bit more to even be remotely as good as BRD because groups still don't want a mch....sorry SE but this has been the expansion that is going to bite you guys in the butt and you guys are not moving enough on these changes nor are you listening to your players

First off. I have to say it. Ixion is the ugliest, most ridiculous looking mount in the entire game, so everyone up in arms over it's rarity, LOLZ. It is disproportionate and looks like a retarded pig when it runs.

Second, what another slap in the face for SMN. They talk about SMN changes specifically and BRD gets more than SMN does. I'm at a loss for words at this point with SMN.

Have they talked about 4.06 or 4.1?

They only talked about "not in 4.06".

Remembering how things got done in the past, I also wouldn't expect 4.1 as long the do not confirm it.

The only difference between his X and XIV appearances is his horn, which is much bigger. It's extremely faithful to the original artwork otherwise.

The horn is my biggest issue. The colour/size just feels... ostentatious and kind of tacky.
