Too many buttons

[Arcane1]

Do people acctually enjoy the 15+ button rotations? Have they never thought to address the bloat?

[Canadane]

Yes I enjoyed it. And they have addressed it!
While I understand why they did it, when they removed skills from previous expansions it hurt me on the inside a little bit.

I ment to post this in general. Not tanks, IDK what happened.

You're telling me that THESE are the purned classes?!

We used to have about this many skills at level 50. As new levels were added, they "had to" add new skills, so many old skills were removed and others were gained later.
Which is why low-level characters have extremely simplistic rotations nowadays.

I miss all my buttons, but mom said they'd be happier living on a farm in the country where they can put DoTs and debuffs on all the cows and sheep...

They really ought to put the main and aoe combos into one button, there's not really a good reason not to other than it makes the combos all feel the same or something.

I rather combos stay as is, better to keep fingers busy instead of doing what people complain about a lot on forums, spamming one button ad nauseum, plus Yoshida has already addressed this and said it won't be happening, some time ago in an interview.

But then they could replace those buttons with new buttons

not really, there is only so much they can add, the addition of more oGCD will reduce potency of GCDs to spread across combo based jobs, to keep balance, and there isn't much more in the way of GCDs they could add without de-coupling rotations away from the new 60/ 120 second buff windows and reduce resource building with less combo usage for gauge spenders. Combos are fine as is, they don't need consolidation, if people struggle with hotbar space, then it's up to them to optimise their hotbars better.

Personally, I wouldn't mind if GCDs were nerfed if it meant more oGCDs. I much prefer jobs that have more oGCDs to weave.
