NIN
pros: Mostly everything mentioned (Someone will complain as usual)

personal cons: Huton is probably still at 15%. Should have been 20%. Shadow Fang at 70" cd looks exaggerated on paper. Will wait to see how it plays

SAM
I guess it\\'s fine? Don\\'t care much about it

BRD
Songs have buffs once more

RDM
VERy nice buffs

SMN
Will wait to see how it plays

AST
DoT buff

Don't know if it's fine or not, but sure, let's nerf more of sam's skils potencies after renovated shoha.

And we got probably nerfed as well ... (DoT potency, Refulgent Arrow down, Sidewider/Apex a bit up) while DNC and MCH got major buffs. This will be interesting to see in actual combat.

I main RDM. I have to try the buffs out, cause right now Im not feeling.

SMN - will see how is plays out...dont know why they would get rid of Ruination & still call it TRI-DISASTER.

Because the Ruination part has been replaced by Direct damage. So you have Bio, Miasma and Direct damage.

This happens every time Tri-Disaster is changed. "Durr It lost a thing (convieniently forgetting thing it was replaced by) They should call it BI-Disaster. I am so cool and funny and original." Every time, without fail.

This is one giant patch with ton of changes, nice.

I like tanks changes and that they have not forgot about goldsaucer.

Love those PvP action changes they listed.

A bit underwhelmed with the Red Mage changes. I'll see how Acceleration feels now, but honestly I'd rather it just have been changed to a charge skill... Still no adjustment to Displacement/Corps-a-corps is disappointing, movement based skills should not be tied to damage output like this, and Engagement is not a fix for that... I still don't get how they even released Red Mage like this, when in the lead up to Stormblood they detailed their exact reasoning for taking damage off skills like Repelling Shot, but for some reason that sound logic doesn't get applied to literally the same skill with Red Mage... Other than that the damage buffs are nice, but not exactly exciting.

Rockbreaker - Area of effect has been changed from a cone to all nearby enemies.
Do you still need a target for this?

This kinda makes me scratch my head, as the queue popping regardless was a QoL change that was made to stop the queue simulator shenanigans that used to happen when one person out of the 72 wasn't ready, and thus would often cause a cascading mess of queue fails. I hope this being reinstated means they fixed that little issue.
