New Gear... for class only? [Glaring Issue] [Request]

[Asiaine]

THM versus BLM is pretty close. THM is very useful at times, but loses out on overall dmg to BLM slightly. We've tried it a lot. Same stats etc. I'd say this is even.

Seriously, I don't see any argument for saying Classes can Solo better than Jobs. Not trying to be a dick or start an argument, but I'd like to know when a class >> job. Please don't say lolraises. If you are having to raise in parties, your healers or your tank is messing up. Simple.

Hello,

I use THM & BLM a lot. I find THM MUCH better than BLM. But it does depend on your situation.

If you are fighting a mob that is hard, and there is no way you can beat it with the damage of BLM before it beats you up, then you are better off with THM.

BLM will let you sleep the mob, but after time the mob resists, so you can not sleep tough mobs often enough to heal & continue fighting.

THM will let you sleep the mob, AND allow you to heal/stoneskin/protect yourself. It will also allow you to heal/stoneskin yourself if sleep is not sticking, allowing you another chance to land it.

I like to solo coffer mobs (1st, 2nd, and 3rd chests) and this would either be riskier or not possible with BLM versus THM. Stoneskin, Protect, Sentinel does make the difference.

That being said, it really is only when fighting tough mobs that Solo THM is better than BLM.
