And even if it was not, 5 months is a lot of time, more than enough to adjust potencies and buff stack amount. They were able to adjust things from Viper because of 3 weeks worth of feedback from the players. So clearly, they can be a bit quicker with adjustments for jobs.

    I've given the devs the benefit of the doubt for years now, and after a while, my own well of goodwill has run dry, unfortunately.
    The interview specifically stated that the more major changes were coming in 7.2 and onwards. The changes to Viper and Monk (among other jobs) are just knee jerk reactions that shouldn't have happened, but they are also quick changes so it isn't fair to point at those and say, look, they didn't do what they claimed they would.

    Changing jobs more drastically takes time, they have likely already started with the 7.2 changes, so, like it or not, you will have to wait.

    You also have to remember they take feedback from many many places. What do the JP forums say? How about the other languages? Are there other sites that other languages use that are similar to Reddit? Youtube? How about feedback from the ingame systems? Just because the forums specifically do not like a certain change, doesn't change the fact they might have had a massive amount of feedback to the contrary.

    yeah wait a second, that is not what my post is about at all. We are not talking about possible reworks for classes, that is a different topic altogether which does take time, which I agree.

    What I am saying is - if Yoshi-P tells media outlets, just weeks before DT release, that he and CS3 believe that job simplification went too far, and now half a year later CS3 are still simplifying jobs, then something does not add up.

    I remember in 5.2 they rework Ninja ninjitsu system, and it didn't require wasting 2.5 years to see meaningful changes.

    We are in a point where we know nothing about next changes and the only thing we have is hope,
    Which is not helping with 7.1 changes
