LIVE Letter Regarding DRG & AST Postponed Reworks

[Spectrum]

"...we mentioned that dragoon and astrologian would receive extensive adjustments in Patch 6.2; however, we’ll be postponing these adjustments based on the feedback we’ve received since Patch 6.1."

It seems weird to me that they're basing these postponements on the feedback of the reworks they gave jobs that didn't necessarily need them, despite DRG and AST definitely needing their actions-per-minute fixed urgently. I literally hurt my finger playing DRG on controller.

Thoughts?

The issue is that most people think they are reworking something that does not need it right now. Dragoon at most maybe cpuld get Battle Litany merged with Dragon Sight so its only 1 button press, every 2 mins for both the raid buff and the damage buff on someone. They should allocate resources for jobs which need it more.
Also people are scared that by "reworking" they mean simplifying those jobs to the level of summoner or taking away their identity / core mechanic ( Kaiten).

I don't mind the Summoner changes. Most people I have talked to think it is a real summoner now and enjoy it, regardless of how simple it is regarded.

The removal of Kaiten just leaves us to mash the same button too frequently though. The monk changes look good but I still haven't wrapped my head around them and everyone I have talked to about them has said the same thing. Monk was never that popular of a job and the changes have pushed away some of the people who actually knew how to play it.

Exactly. Out of all the recent reworks and job changes I have seen, only the summoner rework is what I really like. Others not so much...

You know it could've been its current design and not be as simple to play as connect four right

Choices cannot exceed a count of two.

And also can't be a cumulative result of multiple bimodal decisions.

what is wrong with having one job that hase a few more buttons? arent there 18 others with less buttons? you dont even have to make another character for it. i mean this game would be perfect for having jobs for all kind of playstyles
