Thread: 6.08 Patch Notes

Seems reasonable across the board to me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Further adjustments of game play will come in 6.1. That's how it always is.

Yes, the bread and butter of abilities - the things that let us do what we do. I'm not even there yet on 'further adjustments' which this wasn't even about - classes that didn't need anything at the moment get buffed, while classes that need a defibrillator and at least a shot of adrenaline weren't even touched. DRK really, really needs some help on what it has now. Adjusting it is what put it in its hole. Different turd, same smell. Healing - SGE - really could use some potency adjustments. They do struggle a bit compared to the other healers. Something minor is enough and just in potency would be great. It doesn't have to be overboard, but it does need just a bit of aid. DRG - I am really glad they got a potency buff, their AoE abilities are laughable at best.

That was kind of my point for mentioning it. :\ I mean really. It made me laugh more than anything after shaking my head reading it, haha.

Which changes are those listed in the patch notes? Because I don't even see any category for DRK, nor GNB. I agree on the flamethrower. I took it off the hot bar, it's utterly useless.

Why did they do that to DRG tether? Watching people panic when you tether them was like 80% of the fun and now that’s gone.

Yeah since this game is all about damage and nothing else, anything to do with damage/heals via potency is a big deal. Kinda proves a point with their passive aggressive statement on not all jobs being named but would get buffs but here they mostly have jobs they had listed for buffs with the exception of Warrior getting a Tomahawk buff for no reason.

As far as buffs PLD and DRG I feel got much needed buffs. Especially DRG.

Meanwhile you have DRK and every Healer left in the lurch.

Dunno how they think a +20 to the 3 burst skills MCH is going to change anything potency wise.

Good to know Flamethrower is still a dead skill.

@Greyhawk: There are no DRK changes at all. I'm just drinking my saltwater.

Another punch to the old content relevancy

DRG won, though I wish they wouldn't remove the channeling animation.

Ah-ha, gotcha.
