cheating onsal pallies

[Kuroka]

I'm pretty sure it also works in Seal Rock, allowing you to capture the Tomeliths while everyone is fighting over them.

Different problem as those can be retaken, while onsai is gone for good.

I have not seen any pallys do that so at all in Sieze, probably because they would only be able to unclaim a node once it was claimed lol

Yeah it's not as helpful in Seize because as the post above said, tomoliths can be retaken.

It's more situational. Like let's say two teams are fighting on a node and it's kind of a stalemate and no one is able to claim the tomolith without getting interrupted. A PLD with cover could break that stalemate and turn that tomolith to their side. It would keep giving points to their team but if they lose the team battle they'd lose the tomolith.

So it's effective, but not as effective as Onsal.

please permaban all paladins exploiting cover in onsal thank you

Just because you think they are exploiting?
Paladin cover is working as intended, this is the threat created on May 2022 by Japanese and now it is moved to working as intended:

It actually requires 2 interaction with the node, turning first into neutral so it only creates annoying stalling.

Depends on whether or not the node has been taken before. But generally yes, it is nowhere near as annoying as in Onsal where it just flat out wins you the entire node's resources.

I do see that but the game is not made by Enlgish and English team is merely a customer service to provide feedback to JP primary team
The fact it is sitting there since April while JP one is submitted in May and already moved to Work as Intended for a while (it is on JP Work as intended, page 2 near bottom, it means it is there for a while)
Various JP FF14 related media and site already announced this to their audience that Guardian is working as intended as well
Trust me, this is finalized

Regardless whether or not it's "working as intended," there's still an increasingly large number of players who are miffed about the situation. Regardless whether or not it's been "finalized," I'd still encourage players to voice their discontent about the situation, for as long as it takes to have it changed.

Onsal IS objectively more fun of a mode when there aren't 20 Paladins running around abusing mechanic. I'm not alone in it having been my favorite FL mode prior to the rework, and least favorite afterwards.

And for what it's worth, any given person on the dev team could tell me they intended for the tactic to be used when deciding PLD's reworked kit and I simply would not believe them.

You certain show your dislike but there is no necessary to as far as following:

1. PLD is exploting
2. PLD is cheating
3. It is a bug
4. Even worst, tell PLD to go to hell because of this

So the people directly involved with supporting the game aren't an authority on the game itself? Do you think the EN community team is just rogue and does whatever they want?
