Pretty sure we’ll get “Stand in X location or you explode”-696969 times over instead.

What healing? Lmao.

Me waiting since 5.5:



The dev team is never going to increase healing requirements. No matter what they "say" it has been nothing but either a flat out lie, a dodge in topic, or a misunderstanding bordering incompetence.

Besides. Screw damage hitting harder. Hitting harder doesn't mean a godsdamned thing when it only comes up every 60+ seconds. We need things to hit hard AND more often.

Yeah anyways i just learned that viper has 6 positionals so uhhhh later star nerds ya girl has a new main OLD MONK I'M COMING

- MP regen is only on Draw, now on a 60s instead of 30, but value is the same ? And since we don't have Astrodyne anymore that means few mp recovery

- 2mn still looks busy since the new div followup is ogcd, not sure we'll be able to ditch lightspeed

- Lightspeed still on 90s recast whereas new whm movement tool is 60s, and Icarus is 45s

- 6 new cards, 4 of which are single target heal / mitigation (and weak ones). With tanks upgraded CDs, and since ST healing is already not a concern, this looks super useles compared to needing 2 buttons for them

- New mit capstone being locked behind Neutral Sect ? Looks like you either need NS but won't need the mit, or don't need to GCD heal but will need 2 buttons to get 10% mit


Waiting 1 year for a "rework" and looking at that, this build really doesn't look good, if there aren't changes for the release I don't think I'm gonna go back to AST.
I don't even understand the point of these changes tbh
If they don't at least shakeup the encounter design, I'll probably just stop playing altogether after the 1st savage tier

I wanted to believe they knew what they were doing. I really, really did. I had fought for them so many times before this. Insisting that the ShB changes, even to a point the EW changes were good. Just new starting points, just improving ease of use... I honestly feel betrayed for it. I've never been spit in the face harder as an active player than this.

I was fine waiting to see how they expand the jobs after ShB, if it was a new start, I didn't really mind as long as the jobs would get built up over time.

But then EW came. Healers were made even easier to play, tanks started becoming more immortal, MCH literally got 1 singular button to add to their completely gutted kit, and if you look at MNK's skill list, they literally got nothing from 81-90, not a single button to evolve their kit (you can argue that MNK got a rework, but people who levelled MNK in EW would get nothing in that level range).

I expected nothing from DT and they still managed to disappoint me.

I don’t know if “look healing is so easy now” Will he enough to pull people away from pictomancer but at this point I genuinely hope it isn’t. I really want the DPS mains to suffer with their queue times to finally show people this broken role can’t keep getting ignored and that hitting your roles skill ceiling in sastasha isn’t a sustainable design route

Nah, when they start complaining about queue times YoshiP will just hit them with the 'have you considered trusts?' Trusts are so clearly the bandaid solution to the problem they created out of sheer laziness and an unwillingness to put effort into making jobs actually fun to play instead of just being 'easy to use'. It's not like the two things are mutually exclusive. Anyone who plays Rabbit & Steel for an hour would learn this. Or hell, even just FF14 PvP.

Oh but the DPS players won't be suffering, that's what the Trusts system is for.

It's only when people want to raid that they'll suffer the wait times and questionable new healers. But the community already believes that the raiding playerbase is so small that they don't matter anyway.

Can you do expert roulettes with trusts? I honestly forgot.
