Unlucky7 posted:Huh, that is an actual thing? When did he say that? Or am I thick and this is a joke post? It's probably not what you think. It's likely that you'd remove a lot of the base classes that serve no purpose as it stands right now and replace them with their final destinations. ie: Archer -> Bard Pugilist -> Monk Marauder -> Warrior Gladiator -> Paladin Rogue -> Ninja Thaumaturge -> Black Mage Conjurer -> White Mage Basically, only Arcanist achieved the 1.0 dream of a base class splitting off into different jobs. The job system also means they can't do a coherent 1-50 story on a class level. All the class quests just kind of end at 30 and then you start a new one that is probably not as good generally. I'd have loved for Arcanist to continue to 50 rather than Scholar's, for instance.

It'd also be the BLMs fault for not using Quelling when needed. I've had plenty of lesser geared tanks in experts and they held threat fine against me except maybe on some trash packs where I just went ham without Quelling being up. Use strength jewelry, push your buttons, tell DPS to use threat reducing moves if they have them.

It may entirely be possible they'll just cut their losses and just continue to have the old classes but only add pure jobs in the future, upgrading server capacity and accepting classes as legacy dead weight. Either that or they have to revamp literally every class/job quest in 3.0 which sounds like a pain unless you walk into each guild already a Ninja/Monk/Paladin or whatever.

I think it would bother me less if it was an actual decent sized group of people calling for a return to 1.0 instead of the 10-15 repeat posters that just echo the same poo poo to each other that we have. And they're all so loving smug about it.

I think what's going on with stuff like FF14 1.0 is you have people that are so personally invested in something being good, they WANT it to be good so bad that they find reasons to convince themselves it is, even if it's blatantly awful.

This would actually be pretty cool and also makes sense for most jobs. Scholar's storyline is rediscovering the job entirely, Paladin involves opening training to more Free Paladins, Warrior is about one dude coming from the Warrior Village etc.

I haven't tried this method myself, but I think the process for joining a guild at a house is: - Find house of guild you want to join - Go there, but not inside the house proper - Look outside of the fence for a "placard" - Click on that and you should get the option to join

Spirit Bonding group? Buy a shitton of Krakka roots and then feed it every hour is all I do, plus weekly challenge logs. Also getting a friend to help you lets you train it a second time every hour. If I spiritbond I make sure to get him out of the stables, but otherwise I just leave him there so he doesn't eat the 1 hour cooldown before other people are allowed to feed.

I said a while ago but a lot of those posters have not even played 1.0, they just have a problem/bad experience with the current game (prob cause they're bad) and they get roped in by the promise of a shining paradise where their mostly self-inflicted problems cease to exist by the handful of mentally ill people who continue to engage in revisionism.
