Wow yoship that's hosed up People who can't do 2k dps should not be allowed to progress further in the game until they git gud.

Even if you get absurdly lucky with whistles getting 8 of them is going to take an entire day. 1. It was Bismarck Extreme at the end of the 3.x cycle, so the fight took barely any time. 2. It wasn't on master looter, we just trusted everybody would stick around until they got their birds.

Hogama posted:In patch 4.3, the "Classjob" file which holds data on all the current roles (includes bases like Gladiator, the DoH/L, and a slot 0 for "Adventurer" which is just a default and not actually used), which used to take up 35 rows but now had a 36th row. There was also a corresponding section added in "ClassJobCategory" which lists everything the relevant role can equip (everything set to False for placeholding). That's also when BlueMageAction showed up, too. Alternatively you can post the link to the whole thing https://docs.google.com/document/d/17S76RWm-HcmScU3XKdf0THGt4ePES9pWuwi37y6SNGc/edit

homeless snail posted:Even the itemization in WoW is starting to become more like this game, I guess its what the people want This is the exact opposite of reality The current WoW expansion has gear with passive abilities tied to them instead of secondary stats (and a big dumb grind to go along with it) The last WoW expansion’s central gimmick were weapon-specific talent trees with sockets that determined both their item level and some extra passive abilities Not to mention all the weird random rolls that gear has now, and also the trinket slot in general FFXIV’s gear is super boring in comparison (but on the bright side, it’s not a balancing hell nightmare)

homeless snail posted:Even the itemization in WoW is starting to become more like this game, I guess its what the people want I think it would be more accurate to say it's not what the people don't want. Which sounds like a bunch of lovely wordplay but what I mean is, no one is going to hop up on tables and burst into song at the prospect of trading a sword with crit/det in for a sword with slightly higher amounts of crit/det, but at the same time no one is going to cancel their sub due to not having interesting substats on their gear. Or if they are going to cancel their sub over that, not enough people will do so to make an impact on the aggregate sub numbers. We're winding down SB now and they have two expansions worth of evidence for that fact, at this point. E: If you want to see what an actual impact on sub numbers looks like I bet if the nightmare scenario someone mentioned a little while back of BLU being eureka-only materializes we'll all find out pretty quick

A 50S RAYGUN posted:it's extremely terrible using the same route to gear up as i did in like, patch 3.0, or hell even like 2.4. or having like, two good stats per job. It’s actually extremely good that they do this, because the answer is always “do the raid.” There’s also not much point in throwing away something that works and trying to reskin it to trick players. Also outside of extreme circumstances like BLM and spell speed, most secondary stats are really close to each other. The best stat is just slightly ahead of the others.

Itemization in ffxiv is a little boring but having just canceled my wow sub over how drastically, catastrophically awful it is gearing over there I'm 100% fine with safe and effective. There's not really any motivation for the devs to drastically change how gearing works in this game and I'm ok with that.

Well, tanks can wear most pre-50 caster gear... More seriously, the only way a tank in caster gear would work is if they had a way to make up for casters having awful defense. let healers have tank level defense yoshi, we already have amazing mdef

A blue mage that has an emnity combo, a damage combo, three buttons to take less damage, and a button where they don't die for a couple of seconds. Sounds fun.

I mean, that's literally every class in the game. "Utility combo, damage combo, dps cooldown, soak cooldown". Healers also get some things that fill other people's hp, but that's it.

Scholar fairy can heal every dungeon up until...Brayflox? You're just an arcanist that brings a fifth party member with you. That is good and how you should approach those dungeons.

Spookyhaus can get sketchy at times and you need to heal a bit, but yeah, until brayflox you're basically the 3rd dps and fairy is the healer.

Look, maybe you guys are fine with being made redundant by something the size of a boot, but my self-esteem isn't.  On that note, I'm guessing there's no cross-pollination from class abilities or the like? So leveling CNJ won't boost SCH?
