Infinity Gaia posted:But the thing is most fights will not have you doing an absolutely perfect rotation due to mechanics or whatever, so you need to adjust your timings to compensate. Like if you get stuck in the rock in Susan it fucks up your whole rotation and you need to adjust on the spot to determine what the best way to recover is. If we had just gotten GL4 you'd just go and mash out your base rotation all over again and not care. If Riddle of Fire was just GL4 that'd be fine too, it's mostly that just getting a straight fourth pip of GL4 without a connected cooldown would've been really boring, comparatively. Your point was that you hold on to your oGCDs till they come out of cooldown to use riddle of fire and then burn all of them. I pointed out that the cooldowns line up with RoF, that you shouldn't hold for any of them. The only way you could screw it up is if you used the ogcds disparately. RoF is basically a different flavor of blood for blood. It really didnt change much how you play monk, if anything the cooldown lines up better than before so decision making process is easier. GL4 would keep everything the same without requiring another cooldown, but becomes way more punishing to the people that keep dropping GL despite all the tools given to them.

I pointed out that the cooldowns line up with RoF, that you shouldn't hold for any of them. The only way you could screw it up is if you used the ogcds disparately. Sometimes you have enough time do one cooldown, but then a mechanic forces you to stop what you're doing and not toss out the other cooldown. Ideal rotations are just that, ideal. Most of the time your poo poo is gonna end up out of sync eventually, and having to deal with that is at least somewhat interesting. Having an extra stack of GL wouldn't change your gameplay nearly as much, is my point, and I think maintaining GL stacks is easier than managing your cooldowns, since really all you have to do is keep hitting buttons and now you just press riddle of earth if you have to do a mechanic. It'd also make stuff like Susan's sword and Lakshmi's dance even more annoying as you're losing even more DPS.

All of this was gameplay monk already had. Hell, pretty much every job has this to deal with, and it's not as hard as you're making it out to be to line up cooldowns - at least GL4 would both speed up the gameplay (rather than slowing it down, which is the main complaint, remember) outside of that ~3-4ish second window. On the other hand, GL 4 would be fun, but it wouldn't solve how dull the rotation is outside of that RoF window - more than anything, monk needs something else in their rotation to break up the monotony.

honestly, removing the stance change penalty addresses like eighty percent of the issues i have with warrior feeling clunky. i won't mind a few potency increases, either (or shake it off being changed), but i think the fact like half of our job abilities can only be used in one stance or another made it feel really lovely to not stance dance but the actual stance dancing was also punished super hard. i'm pretty pleased.

SpaceDrake posted:Man, the post and the account seem to have been deleted in the last hour or so and I missed it. Did anyone capture it? I don't remember the specifics, but it was a red mage adamant that their healing was both useful in good in all content, and RDMs that focus only on their damage skills (outside of emergency raises) are in fact bad and playing wrong. In truth you queue as a dps, but in reality you're dps and a healer and should play accordingly. Something like that.

I'm very happy that they're adding strength to fending accs, but I'm also going to temper my expecations by saying that it's going to be a hilariously low amount, and 270 slaying accs will still be king.

Those dragoon comments are pretty hard to grasp, but hopefully it means adjustments to how quickly Life of the Dragon falls off since that's a huge QoL issue in dungeons for any time a tank doesn't just constantly pull immediately according to my friend.

There are three things that suck a lot in dungeons: 1. Tanks who stop before a pull when everything is good to go and let buffs elapse for no reason. 2. Tanks who are noncommittal to their pulls. Decide what you're pulling and stick to it because if I pop something like Internal Release and then you decide that you've been stood still for 5 seconds and you need to go get another pack and waste it, that sucks for everyone in the dungeon. 3. My DPS.

It concerns me that they say they want to make some jobs easier because they're too reliant on player skill. I really didn't enjoy RDM because of how simple it was, not excited to see other jobs move towards that.

To be fair, it at least lowers the gap such that increased substats will make the higher ilvls of gear become better much earlier.

I'm going to be... modestly annoyed(?) if monk ends up being the secret super DPS after I started leaning towards sam. At least the gear interchangeable other than the weapon. All this talk of wanting GL4 instead of RoF now has me thinking about RoF being a 20 second buff that reduces your GCD to 1 second, a la Meditation. Now I'm sad that we don't have that instead.

a kitten posted:Is this good? Have any resident number crunchers had a look at how it might play out yet? I'm still leveling through BLM, at like 68 now, but I'll hazard a guess that Fire's faster cast time was making up the potency difference between it and Fire IV. Making the latter spell faster might close the gap without changing potencies. Fire IV already hits like a truck, and nerfing Fire would punish everyone, so this was the best option? I dunno.
