"Balance team tests the fights themseslves"

[Iyrnthota]

Unless you're a week 1 clearer none of this affects you.


The discussion about class balance doesn't affect anyone but week 1 and world prog - All jobs CAN and WILL continue to clear all content available.


This p8s boss hp thing only affects week 1 and world prog too - I can understand complaints from the top 1% or so but everyone else won't be seeing that boss for another few weeks at which point they have gear.

I mean, ideally it would only affect early weeks progs, but realistically even after gear overcomes any job balance deficits, idiots in PF are still going to restrict jobs they see as being weak or non-meta.

Even if the actual job balance is generally okay, the perception of job balance is almost as important, even to those not currently high end raiding.
Hell, the amount of times I see people in the 14 reddit discord saying "I decided to swap to X because I think it'll be better at endgame" is surprisingly high, even if they are immediately informed that reasoning is a bit uninformed.
