No potency buffs for DNC?!

What's the deal here, SE?
Get your heads out of that NFT cloud and return to proper developing.

DNC needs more than that re-assigning of skill types.

Title says it all. Needs potency buffs.

It's in the title. There's not much else to say.
Ofc it's a Reaper replying like that. You guys don't have much to complain on your shiny horse.

It's definitely frustrating to see dragoon, ninja, and summoner all receive potency buffs that at least made them competitive within their respective roles (although none of the three are the strongest choice, they at least aren't lagging behind), and then dancer is left to just sit 10-15% behind bard with machinist somewhere in the middle. The state of phys ranged this tier leaves a lot to be desired. I can only assume that, just like the expansion itself, they ran out of time and shipped what they had, glaring issues included. I still don't see why they couldn't just slap 100 potency / minute into base weaponskills or standard finish (please god, this skill is so bad right now) as a band aid until 6.1. Even if they reverted standard back to 1000 potency, dancer would still be the weakest job in the game by a long shot.

Here's to hoping that they will own this mistake and fix it.

I do believe we have already seen the result of 6.0 and 6.05 patch, which they thought was WELL BALANCED.

I mean now there's 10% of dancer and 8% of mch in the top 50. Yesterday it was 4% of each, people just got their gear and trying out things now. Ranged really need a bone

Does no one realize that with the ability reasignment, you'll generate Esprit faster, meaning more Saber Dances, which is an overall boost to potency.

Now I'm not saying additionally boost might not be needed. But this adjustment is just a mild boost until they see savage numbers, or get more data. I mean just look at the SMN changes, they boosted the potency of the Phoenix phase because it was weaker than the Bahamut phase, but nothing else changed, when theoretically some of the other spells should of changed as well.

Remember not all potency boosts are direct buffs to a skill, some are passive adjustment, like a CD adjustment or gauge generation, which is what the DNC buff is.

No one "realizes" what you say because it isn't true. Since 6.0 DNC themselves only generates Esprit from basic combo GCDs and their procs. It is no longer "Any weaponskill".

Esprit still has the random chance of +10 generation off of your Dance Partner’s weaponskill/spell usage; as well as the party-wide Technical Finish Esprit. It just also has the additional benefit of +5 for your basic combo skills and procs.
