They are gutting Black Mage even more in 7.2

Maybe they want us to suffer to teach us some hardships, by that they make every job unappealing and bland.

Farther still existed a star without strife...
...where none remembered life's trials─or its joys.
What its people had gained from ease, they lost to apathy.

I only started playing the game a couple months ago, really liked black mage and have played like, 400 hours just on black mage. I cancelled my subscription this morning after trying the changes because they just stripped all the intrinsic reward I got out of playing it. It's actually awful and I have no idea what, if anything, can be done to get them to revert this garbage.

A shockingly accurate description of the state of this game nowadays, one that seemingly went right over their heads.

They seem to have forgotten to grey out Fire IV at full Astral Gauge so you dont miss out on Paradox. Yoshi pls fix

[HydraCentaurus]

Astral Fire is just spam fire 4 now, there is no complexity. Umbral Soul, Firestarter, Paradox have no or much reduced usefulness, and polyglot is just...a bonus resource you get every 30 seconds now, so why doesn't it just have Foul/Xenoglossy on a 30 second cooldown? So much of BLM is built around the Enochian Timer that just ripping it out has confused the entire thing.

I'd say it was easily heading that way the start of 6.0, its funny with each patch how much more true it gets though.

Help.

They won't go away anymore. It's basically DRK red glow all over again.




Also, about the changes this only makes it easier to watch YT while running dungeons and don't fall to sleep.

WAR aura with any gauge < 50

also about as easy to use

Anybody have an idea what the JP or EU forums are saying about this? I really hope that the entire community is in agreement about this and being LOUD about their disapproval.

WAR at least has a buff to sometimes barely think about(for now).
