I would expect a bigger set of changes in a 6.05, if they’re coming. Performance in savage will tell the team a lot about balance.

I go into the tier as a dancer, hoping to get a few buffs at the door. Instead they make me... buff the reaper better. I guess that's cool

I wonder if the wyrmwind buff is enough to change the drg opener, which currently considers the first fang and claw good enough to dump your first lifesurge into just to get the cooldown rolling. Presumably there's a point where wyrmwind is so strong that there's no point in lifesurging anything else, but I don't know what point that is

Early job adjustments tend to be in x.05 and then also x.1, but that's just an overall trend from the past expansions.

Not giving PLD at least a tiny potency buff really hurts, though I suppose my FC is going to want me as WHM anyway.

Chillgamesh posted:Patch notes are up. It's a weird change because if I'm reading it right, you only get one Raiju ability now? I'm not sure I'm a fan of that. The Bunshin/Kamaitachi change is great and Shroud/Communio should work the same way.)

Chillgamesh posted:Patch notes are up. Unless I'm reading this wrong, you no longer get to do both Raiju attacks; it's not a two hit combo anymore. Forked no longer gives Raiju ready and they can both be done immediately after Raiton. Instead you choose between two variants like RDM's Displacement and Coward's Displacement. The potency buff is just to make up for the fact that it's only one hit now. Although it also saves you a GCD I guess.

That was my reading of it too, but it's somewhat offset by Phantom Kamaitachi no longer consuming a Bunshin stack without dealing extra damage, right? e: lol since PK is decoupled from Bunshin/having Bunshin stacks and PK Ready buff has a 45 second uptime, you can now always PK in Trick too Chillgamesh fucked around with this message at 07:13 on Jan 4, 2022 |

For what it's worth, the average potency per gcd of the basic Ninja combo is 300, so doing 2 hits for 400 only added 200 potency above not doing it. While doing one hit for 560 adds 260. So it's actually a buff.

The Raiju change is a straight up buff. It went from being a 2 part combo with an average potency of around 425 to one gcd with a potency of 560. The Ninki gain is the same and the restrictiveness of having to use a gap closer is gone.

I wasn't sick of it at all yet either but I definitely can see after doing EX1 as a healer how quickly I might get sick of needing to use two use-it-or-lose-it high damage gap closers back to back.

They benefit from and are benefited by anything that cares about weaponskills. Notably Reaper and Monk both have things that care about weaponskills/spell casts but not ability use.

Professor Beetus posted:What is the significance of the dancer changes? What does changing the finishers from abilities to weaponskills do? Abilities are usually oGCD, weaponskills are on the GCD. I didn't realize dance finishers weren't GCD already, but I don't play dancer a ton. Things like Brotherhood and Arcane Circle affect the user when party members use weaponskills. This change wouldn't affect Dancer's own Esprit gain because that is only triggered on normal combo GCDs.
