Request for Utsusemi

[Xoo]

And still, albeit unsurprisingly, only two people have actually requested and gave feedback on the proposition. Sad fact. What is the average age of this community again?, Five? - With myself and a handful of others towing the high end?

@OP (Xoo):

Decoy is almost like our utsusemi somewhat. If they decide to add it, i think it should be for one of the future katana classes' jobs. If it became unique to one of their jobs we wouldn't have to worry about everyone equipping it.

If they did allow everyone to equip it though, if they kept it on a decent timer cross-class(2min - 3min~) it wouldn't be so bad either.

I don't think it would be as similar as it is in FF11 because the fights in FF14 are much more dynamic & involved than just evading single melee attacks. At least the majority of content so far (multiple adds, mechanics(sear/eruption/plume), AoE, etc...).






EDIT: Sorry Xoo, the majority of the time people are just trying to look smarter than they really are on here & to prove their points for no real reason (boredom?, anger?, trolling?).

They know exactly what they're guilty of every time they reply with some condescending dribble about ABC because of XYZ.
It's usually like that on alot of "Official" MMO forums no matter where you go. You just have to ignore or sift through most the crap to get to anything half way decent.

Exactly, Tezz. Just put a 2min recast on it. There's the 30secs devs were targeting for mob kills and an answer to shadow abuse.

For those asking, "Why do we need Utsusemi when we have Stoneskin?":

I was going to go for the easy answer and bring up that THF never subbed WHM, but I'll try and dig a little deeper. Perhaps it would work, but for what I see, damage completely negated is better than sustaining damage. If grouping/pulling/fighting a dangerous horde of mobs is part of the game, then what sense does it make to punish (damage/threat of death) those simply trying to play?

If you're going to comment, please do yourself a favor and do not bother falling back on "OMG HAHA OP JUST WANTS EZ MODE NO DMG TAKEN WTF THIS GAME IS TOO EZ ALREADY MORON GO PLAY WOW CAN I HAVE YOUR GIL!!!!!!!"

It's also just a nice option for many of the new/abilities they'll have to choose from in the future. Then they have to decide if it's a class or job ability & if it's enhanced by traits or armor at all.

There's many things they could do, i think they should go for it in the future.

New Job Ninja with job specific spell Utsusemi yes please!

Lmao! People so sensetive, must be that time of the month. And FYi I loved nin/blu war/nin nin as a class and shadow tanking. So what there would be another tank keep utsu one class spell. If bard has buffs/debuffs why would it need a shadow spell? It's ninjutsu meaning ninja only.

Call it what you want, I just used Utsusemi for the purposes of clarity and familiarity. I've already mentioned why I think Bard needs shadows.

[Wirritosama]

Then that's a dif story, your topic says " Utsusemi "

[ThePatriarch]

I'm all for Utsusemi coming back.

How I miss nin tanking.

I don't see eastern jobs coming until an expansion.
