Serious post: It sucks Scholar lost so much of its damage kit. Art of War doesn't look or feel very scholar-y, and I'd rather they have DoT AoEs rather than Scholar Holy. I get that they're trying to make the healer damage kits more equal, but the way they've gone about it is dumb. They've basically given every healer the exact same kit, and while that makes some sense for WHM and AST, SCH did have a very different kit, and I would have rather seen them keep that. I can see where WHM's stronger spells and AST's weaker spells but card buffs makes sense for both their kits. SCH doesn't look like SCH any more.

And regarding Scholars heals: I sincerely hope hey nerfed them enough that SCH no longer has a permanent spot in raid groups. SCH should be good, but they've had a near-permanent spot in raids since ARR.

The WHM changes mostly look good to me. The AST ones look like they make sense, but that the new cards could use something to give them a little bit more zing.

I always thought that the class mechanic should have something to do with switching stances. Have like a Waxing and Waning phase.

The ACB/Anchor tooltips are slightly misleading. They still go on GCD when other weaponskills are used, so Heat Blast x6 is best practice for Overcharge.

Maybe I'll check out new SMN, that might scratch my itch. Will still give new MCH a try because keyboard slamming is fun in its own right, but it's not what I enjoy about current MCH.

Mashing ~~Cooldown~~ Heat Blast during Wildfire is exactly what I hoped would happen, personally, because Heat Blast has a really awesome animation. I honestly can't believe how much the new MCH seems to cater to my preferences.

I honestly have no idea how old the twins are, except that it's more or less (??? + I Don't Know.)

They are probably somewhere in between seventeen and twenty-one.

Slamming a button really quickly does scratch a primal itch doesn't it?

they thought they knew ya,
but look who's in your heart now.

Yoshi P may have ruined *insert class here* but at least he's a really good person :unsmith:

To touch on the second part of your question about gender restrictions, first and foremost, I think there should be freedom in your values when it comes to the different genders. We don�t want to restrict attire and clothing that you wear based on characters� gender or sex.
...
Let me give an example: I was heading to the office on a Saturday and I saw a situation that made me very sad. I was trying to go into the office and I was waiting at a red light. I saw a high schooler coming from the other side of the road in their school uniform. It seemed that they were biologically male at birth but they were wearing a sailor fuku, which is traditionally female attire. In Japanese high schools, there�s more and more schools that are accommodating for freedom of not being restricted to a specific gender for your uniform...That person probably wanted to present the gender they identified with in their heart...On the other side of the road was a mother and a daughter. The daughter was perhaps 5 years old. As soon as the mother saw the high schooler, she shielded her daughter as if she didn�t want her daughter to see. The high schooler must have been very hurt. Situations like these still happen and there�s areas where there�s not as much understanding.
...
That being said, we want to address this, and I think it will be gradual...For instance, for the Ceremony of Eternal Bonding, we�ve already started to make adjustments. Once we officially release this, you won�t have gender restrictions. If you both wanted to wear a dress, that�s perfectly fine. If you want to both wear the tuxedo, that would also be fine...That�s not available in game yet, but we have done the preparations for it.

I like that child minfilia, despite not having an actual job, is still infinitely more useful than older minfilia. Expecting her to be a caster and instead just decides to stab poo poo

Okay, that's enough fantasizing about things you basically had to imagine all the hard data about.

Instead, we're going to talk about which of our NPC friends should kiss which of our other friends! We will continue to talk about this until the balance talk comes to an end.

Okay, so, I know most people favor the "official" ship which is Alphinaud/Estinien, but I think that Alphinaud/Thancred is heavily underrated. Just consider! Thancred is the only member of the cast whose essential dignity is low enough to allow Alphinaud to dunk on him, which sets up a huge number of possibilities. For this reason, they should make out, especially after Alphinaud returns from the First with his art upgrade and is eleven feet tall.

Oh, and they should let the thirsty Scion have her threesome. It's 2019; this would ultimately be the bravest possible course.

To this: ALL of this
