PLD gets more interesting after 50, but I can't remember if anything critical happens after level 56 that you'd be missing that would change your mind at this point.

Umbrite is the number one thing you should be spending lore on, because you can't get it anyway else. Although you might want to wait until the patch on 28 Feb when they'll supposedly be nerfing that step.

Clemency and Royal Authority. Both nice abilities, and the latter gives you a non-DoT DPS combo finisher so it puts it more on par with the other tanks that way.

Neither is going to change the way you feel about the class, but they round the kit out well if you otherwise are fine with PLD.

Can always just pull out your chocobo and run beastmen dailies to finish those two classes off without having to run instances on classes you aren't wild about.

Looking at the system requirements for Stormblood on steam and it says it requires 60gb of hard drive space. I hope that just means that's the total size of the game with the expansion, and that it's not 60gb in addition to ARR & HW.

I mean it can't be, right? That'd be a real big expansion

I'm just glad I was able to save enough money to upgrade my computer before the expansion hit.

If this SAM they're showing is in AF, it's not traditional Samurai armour. Robe stuff.

Maybe SB is going to Doma too?

Wonder if we're just making a brief stop in Ala Migho, or even going at all, because that looks like way more effort put into expanding Othard there.

EDIT: And this is still only what, one third of the world? Considering there's the new world continent(s) and the blasted wasteland that was Meracydia too that aren't on the map.

So that is now 10 DPS classes for 3 healers and 3 tanks. Its a mystery why DPS queues take so long.

Josuke Higashikata
Mar 7, 2013


They know that the matching is going to be a pain in the rear end with two 2 DPS classes. They saw that tanks and heals didn't swap to new tank and heals as a whole so they're not messing the numbers.

They're still going to address tank and healer gameplay as it exists overall though.


They also said that no 3rd job because it's just a bit too much work.

i would be utterly shocked if they actually address the dps queue issue with anything other than "we made tanks more fun/easier to level"
