Physical ranged strike!

[Willemdarke]

They really should just go all in and make all DPS greedy, no longer having to worry about balancing between party buffs will make them all equally desireable in all content and more fun to play.

Dear lord, please. Get rid of all whole-party damage buffs. This would get rid of the 2 minute meta. This, in turn, would get rid of homogenisation.

At the end of the day they aren't going to get rid of buffs and make everyone selfish that's cope beyond cope. But phys ranged needs a damage buff, more meaningful contribution and the whole concept of mch needs a rework. Dnc and brd need their play style adjusted.

There is a reason so many statics are struggling to find prange because the role is a mess and people walked away, and apparently now we're just not needed.

Whatever team did the job design this expac needs to be moved elsewhere. They gutted dnc, brd is clunky, mch may as well be deleted and pct is a God.

I've been playing Mch since 3.0. It's been rough, but I've weathered it. However, we're now in such a bad state that I'm now lvling Drg to do raids and dungeons, cause it's better to be loldrg than a mch at this point. I will not pick up another physical ranged class, I don't want to be a brd or a dnc. I want to be a mch, I want my little turret buddies back, I want Mch to feel like a Mch. #PhysicalRangedStrike.

Honestly I feel for phys ranged. Being dog water at launch in Picto's shadow was painful. I can't even imagine something like that for xpacs on end.

I feel doubly awful for Machinist.

Even if it's just a joke or jab toward the healerstrike, I do genuinely hope one day other poorly treated roles will also wake up and form their own collective effort of #strike. The more noise made, the better.

I heard they not only kept aether locked like a bunch of idiots, they also FORCE 1 player per job so people cant even pct cheese, while mch looks like dogshit for dps when it should be top of the ranged, always. give the ironwoman a 10% dmg boost for the duration of its timer, every time, at the very least if you guys cant be bothered to make it right. this is such crap. im so done with this game lmao

I was being serious. I miss my little turret buddies and want them back, and I am lvl'ing drg (and probably other jobs) cause mch is in such a bad place now.

You have my book!

Im not much of a Ranged DPS Player but i stand with you

mch main here. mch has been getting shafted in terms of its damage. it makes it hard for mch mains because nobody wants a mch in their party. it should be blastin foo's to the moon and back, hitting hard as hell. ranged tax is a load of dingo dung cuz everything has high uptime % anyway. should be right in the middle of all those melee basket case ppl, i think that would be a fair amount of dps. we have 2 defensive cooldowns already, like other certain melee jobs, but we dont get the damage boosts that they do, and we should. not because i care about the my main being the best, i could care less. i just want my main to be in a spot that makes logical sense - being the bottom of the rung in a raid setting when you should be the top, or on par with the top of the ranged jobs, isnt cool.
