Trick Attack

[MrJPtheAssassin]

Honestly, I think saying the devs are simplifying the game is giving them too much credit. Pressing kaiten before midare is not hard, as many kaiten detractors point out. Trick detractors also say keeping trick on cooldown isn't difficult, which is also true. You can't simplify these things any further. So what are the reasons for these changes? They're not nerfs, since the devs are gonna compensate us accordingly. It could be a buff, but doing so at the expense of ninja's core skills seems like a strange choice. It seems like they are trying to fix what isn't broken. As far as I am aware, the game is alright balance wise right now. The fact that the devs spent like 15 minutes showing us cool new minions instead of taking 3 minutes to explain their logic is something I find strange. I hope our protests now can at least get us a coherent answer when they read out the patch notes.

Maybe simplifying isn't the right word but I can only speak from a caster/smn main and they did simplify smn to the ground with its rework. I'm not saying these abilities were hard to use but they did add something to the jobs and that is being taken away for whatever reason. This whole 120s buff window thing imo is adding more rigidness into the game and I will be honest I don't really like it. As for balance yeah most of the jobs are balanced though I have said it once and I said again the caster role balance is a mess right now just because there isnt an in between job of a pure dps caster and a utility caster. Rdm can do everything an smn can do but better, so there might as well be just two casters right now....

Anyway, my post has gotten off-topic some so I wouldn't say much more than I agree with most that changing TA and deleting Kaiten is a bad decision on the devs part. Hope everyone has a great day!
