As I said in harold's threads expecting anything more than raw potency buff is asking to be disappointed the only thing that is unclear is what they mean with usability in raid but frankly they are not gonna change BLM that much

Which is sad because SMN did receive an extensive rework altough it wasn't necessary.

[Remedi]

Idd but they said they were going to do that while they already said the changes will mostly be dps which is probably going to be potency buffs

[Makrar]

・黒魔道士→蘇生が入ったりはしない、ファイジャの威力強化、サンダー系とファイア系プロック時間が6秒ほど長くなる、エーテリアルステップのリキャが10秒に変更、トランスのリキャが8秒に変更

BLM - > No Raise, Fire IV potency buff, Thunder and Fire based procs will have an additional 6 sec increase, Aetherial Manipulation's recast will change to 10 seconds, Transpose cooldown will change to 8 seconds

Thank god no raise.

[Akor]

atleast its not insta cast fire/ice 1

[Shiroe]

and thank god AetherM and Proc tweaks for slight mobility help, like in prog

glad besides ofc the most important : potency (F4) buff

the 4.2 changes from SE didn't disappoint (unless the next fights contain a lot more rng / heavy movement xD...)

I have no idea what you are smoking but these changes are absolutely not enough unless the F4 potency buff is completely broken.

we got a flat potency buff on our main dps source + mobility (+ proc 6 sec = mobility & tick more dps as it is, less proc clipping) => potency buff + mobility = not disappointed

sure, being able to stock procs would have been better. and increasing B4 too besides F4 would have nice too., but overall still sounds good

never expected something like Ragging Strikes, even if cant aline with other buffs aswell as other classes...

edit: but do agree, the F4 potency increase has to be more than just a "slight" increase (especially since its the only flat increase)

Just wait for it to be a +10 potency increase. They aren't making any changes to SAM, so I can't imagine it will be anything large. We didn't get any significant added mobility compared to what we already had.

But they might have just shifted the meta to triple melee anyway
