Thread: Patch 4.2 Notes (Preliminary)

- Never touching MSQ Roulette ever again.

- All of my level 1 glamours are going in the glamour dresser. This is going to free up so much needed space.

- Using my chocobo storage for crafting, and gathering exclusively.

- I love the changes to apartments, and I love the new servants. I need that Xaela girl dressed in purple. Hopefully in the future we’ll get room extensions. I want to have a bathroom, bedroom, airship worshop, kitchen, and outdoor garden/patio. I also want the maximum number of servants.

- When are the 2.0 ponies going to be able to fly/swim?

Excuse me, but have you looked at the data at all? Red Mage, more potent than Summoner?

Red Mage ties Bard for weakest dps. Summoner ties (and indeed, rdps included, surpasses) Samurai for strongest. The problem is Summoner has been destroying the other two casters by invalidating both. Some could argue that instead of nerfing Summoner they should have buffed Red and Black Mage, but no, Red Mage couldn't touch Summoner's damage or party contribution with a ten foot pole.

Do not expect a nerf for these jobs before some new jobs coming in the new expansion, it's business ^^

On phone, can't edit, but seriously go look at FFLogs data on the recent raid tier before spouting nonsense like this. At current, summoner beats samurai, and red mage is among the weakest jobs. Both facts disprove your premise, and the query in which your premise was built.

As a DRK main, all i have to say is... I no longer have any faith in their job design/balance team. The bias they show is astoundingly over the top and i am sick of my job being treated like it simply does not exist.

Boycotting tanking until they get off their asses and actually do something about the job that desperately needs help instead of making unnecessary changes to their god job.

Edit: And now to see if the mods here are nazis...

Won't be running Msq roulette on my alt ever.

Not trying to defend SE here, but remember those are preliminary notes and may not contain the full changes.

I'll hold my pitchfork(because the DRK adjustments as of now are in fact meme-worthy) until they actually release the final notes.

Sucks for me and Hyomin though. We have alts that have to go through ARR still. ;-;

Well you got the weekend to grind through it! I know i will on my alts lol

The chances they'll actually change anything from now to launch are abysmal. At best, we'll get an emergency patch reverting this but the changes'll likely be live for several days. And that's besides the utter tone-deafness of introducing this change to begin with

Only thing they usually add in full notes is the complete list of added items.

Final notes only ever contain specifics on items and vendors. Job changes at this point are finalized.
