STAT SQUISH, LOW HP, DPS...for me...SUCKS!!

[Krotoan]

I can’t decide if this is satire or not…

Satire or not I play with someone who is genuinely sad his BLM numbers are smaller now.

Casters adjust.

Didn't the devs say that numbers were getting to the point where aggro was resetting or something along those lines?

Even though I know Yoshi said they had to do the stat squish, all I can say its sucks. I remember coming into EW & seeing my HP go from 120K to 29k, it was like a punch in the stomach. Seeing my RDM, which is main, at 90 doing DPS as it did in SB is kind of disheartening.

I'm like could our HP be at least be 75 - 80k at level 90.

IMO, sometimes I do feel my RDM is weaker. Level 80 dungeons when playing ShB seem like a breeze & can get through 15 mins. Now, it seems to take longer. Seeing some of these bosses especially in Pandemonium hit you with 24k damage & u hitting back with 8-12k damage...just SUCKS...lol. Again this is just my opinion & how I feel.

The stat so compressed, it's strange, but everything works normally.

The problem is that if your impressions are bad, you'll stick with it. I had no problems from the old raid content to the last extreme raid.

The impression may be skewed also because there is a resurgence of noobs in the game, old content is often harder to finish because everyone is doing Endwalker content, so newbies are among themselves often in old content and die on easy content.

It's still funny to see 90% of the raid die on the first bump of the first Dun Scaith boss.

I don't care about the numbers. Might as well have 1200 HP at max level and I wouldn't care either.

[BaconBits]

Yeah I agree. Pulls that were tough in SHB dungeons in 5.55 are cake now. With maybe the exception of pulling every single mob from the start of Mt. Gulg to the first boss arena.

There were tough pulls in SHB?

Each dungeon prior to 80 were tough at times.

As were ones in Stormblood. Mostly noticeable at Bardam's Mettle when Scaeven Gear reached it limit.

going by the assumption that you meant shire gear and not scaevan; it reached it's limits by what measure? 270 is quite literally the highest ilvl someone could be at that point and is perfectly fine to wear, as the nomad gear you get from from bardam's are a measly +6 ilvl + substats better than tome/shisui gear
and assuming that a tank or healer have issues despite being fully decked out in tome/shisui/crafted gear, it's definitely not a gear issue but a skill one
then again, people have issues with that dungeon even when they were in shb gear, so yeah, it's definitely not a gear issue lmao
shame that the stat squish made it completely faceroll tier as well

They made also some job changes. Those changes could be responsible for this.

Why should a player do more damage than a raid boss?
