Difficult experience in Forked Tower – a reminder to respect public content

[Volgia]

The problem is that they dont have their own coherent vision for the game that they believe in. That's why it appears they are caught between contradictory feedback.

It must also be why they adhere so hard to the current structure of the game, despite it becoming so blatantly stagnant. Everything new they try doesn't fit within their character progression or reward structure systems.

I raided on monk in heavensward without any issue but I did have to transfer to a server where people were actually raiding which was the real problem in heavensward but that was true for any job

This exactly. I had no trouble raiding on PLD despite that it was hated and had eggs thrown at it. It was ridiculously defenseless against Alexander, but by the time I was up to it I had max ilvl gear so I just barely had the raw HP for it.

But it is true that they had to homogenize PLD to a certain degree for that very reason. They couldn't have it going into raids with many defenses that literally don't function against the boss ... (Sheltron, Bulwark, Rage of Halone which predated Reprisal - these were all physical defenses being used against magic damage, and the longest invuln CD) so here we are today where they are "homogenized".

This is the tb in boss 2 which is a cone, not the tb in boss 1 which is a circle. If the tank tries to adjust because 1 person is near him he risks aiming the cone inside, killing 16 people fighting one of the other 3 bosses.

If you're this unhappy with the actual design on xiv content, just talk with your wallet

So true, bro!

It's also because, when the jobs had "identity", some were completely locked out of endgame content. Just ask any MNK how "great" Heavensward was in 2015.

Machinist has been a grief pick for multiple expansions. What is your point?

Casters are basically two different flavors of grief picks.

Are we progging? If yes, no-rez go away and bring the rezzer. If no, rezzer go away and bring the no-rez.

The pain and duality of black mage and red mage.

This highlights the point. Look how well "being unique" has worked out for MCH.

mch is probably more desired in 48 content, because it doesnt overcap everyone elses buff bars with songs etc
