It's past midnight and I couldn't find the right page on fflogs for class averages so I did jankier things with my own logs, finding people who parsed similar ranks on different classes

Graphically, it used to extend a red line between the two of you as long as the buff lasted, which was a lot of fun, imo, and I'm sad to see it gone

it was fun but jokes aside its easy to see why they removed it with how often it could be mistaken for a boss attack effect even by high tier players in certain fights

It's not just a belief. YoshiP straight up said that only potency changes were coming in 6.08, and any bigger adjustments were going to have to wait until 6.1.

I think the one thing I enjoy about PvP is using the "pull a guy towards you" skill during group vs group fights and just watching your group erase some poor guy that you pulled into their midst. I'm extremely bad with PvP* (the targeting limitations of using controller become much worse when facing a giant crowd of people), but that's one of the few ways I feel useful. I usually just play extremely cautiously and try to avoid dying. * I've only used tanks and melee DPS in PvP so far, which is admittedly probably "hard mode" since the main way you get killed is overcommitting. I'm looking forward to trying out my BLM or AST (which I'll be throwing into the PVP mines soon for the XP; I think Frontlines might be the 3rd most effective roulette in terms of time to XP ratio).

Drg and Nin have excellent ranged options and escapes and nin has completely nutty burst damage. Rpr has ok escape but crap for burst. Sam has good burst in theory but unless you've got a tank on voice you can tell to low blow your target so you can midare tsubame them it's just endlessly watching people outrange your midare's and being sad.

Man, I'm wholly underwhelmed by the machinist changes. They are fairly consistently parsing under bards in raw dps, and their adjustment was... 90 potency a minute? I was hoping for something more significant like drg/pal. Edit, I'm going to laugh my rear end off if vvvvv is true and mch is getting beat in raw by both brd and dnc now. Truely the job the developers forgot about. DeathSandwich fucked around with this message at 15:52 on Jan 25, 2022 |

Did a little napkin math. Rough estimates how they'll place based on new adjustments, with 1000 being top dps. Monk - 1000 Reaper - 996 Black Mage - 992 Samurai - 989 Ninja - 985 Dragoon - 983 Red Mage - 943 Summoner - 941 Dancer - 929 Bard - 928 Machinist - 912 Dark Knight - 639 Gunbreaker - 631 Warrior - 622 Paladin - 617 Sage - 520 Scholar - 503 Astrologian - 500 White Mage - 493 Just rough estimates. Machinist is the one that sticks out most to me. Paladin and Dancer are healthy again. Red Mage and Black Mage might need some more love to compensate for their mobility challenges.

I didn't do anything revolutionary here, didn't think it was worth mentioning. If you care for my methodology, scraped median rDPS numbers from savage fflogs, multiply by Balance expected adjustments, normalize to percent of top dps.

Note that this methodology would leave BRD and DNC lower than actual outcomes, because it doesn't compensate for the knock-on effect of other people doing more DPS. Meanwhile, I guess I'm leveling Dancer and Red Mage today.

^^^It's so much fun, I could easily see it becoming my new DPS main.Grayshift posted:Red Mage and Black Mage might need some more love to compensate for their mobility challenges. I'm a DRG main who only recently started RDM and haven't done any EW endgame content with it yet, but what are the mobility challenges? I guess keeping swiftcast and/or the second acceleration charge in your pocket is slightly suboptimal from a MAX DEEPS standpoint but doing so means I pretty much never have my GCD stop spinning even in fights where I don't always know what's coming next.
