So many but hurt people on here and OF. Just shooting themselves in the foot.

Idk how you got JP gift adjustments from Job Trait adjustments.

Because it directly affects job traits. Literally no other gift in the game directly affects job traits in the manner that does. Would not be surprised in the slightest if at least one of those gifts got changed.

Job Trait adjustment could mean anything, like when they upped attack bonus and gave it more tiers, or when they gave several additional jobs HP bonus.

There is nothing liking job trait adjustment to the BLU Job Gift.

Im all for fixing MNK WAR SAM Weaponskills for sure but nerfing other WS's is just counterproductive.

Your statement is devoid of any logic when it comes to nerfing, People are tired of hearing how pathetic these suggestions are and some even wait for the last straw to quit the game all together because of people like you wanting to "tone-down" things.

Rudra already got a nerf remember?
Fixing MNK, SAM and WAR is a priority now and I hope they do a great job with it, this will open so many possibilities for DD jobs (it already did after Smite anyway) so everyone can be happy.

Also 100% agree with Tidis.

I'm all for buffing and fixing jobs like 2handers and H2H to make them more competitive. Problem I find with nerfing is that people are more likely to jump ship and bandwagon the next best job and then a few months down the line people will be calling for more nerfs for the new bandwagon job.

Nerfs should be a last resort method at this stage of the game. If all jobs get a good noticeable buff and they still fall behind one specific job in most situations then I can see a nerf being a reasonable course of action.

It's been awhile since they made changes like this so I can't wait to see them. I hope they'll help jobs like MNK, PUP, WAR, SAM and other DDs that need a boost.

Then they would state that its a JP gift adjustment not a Job trait adjustment.


This and so much this.

Nerfing jobs will be an endless cycle and the under preforming jobs need to be buffed rather than the slightly stronger job being nerfed into oblivion.

If they wanted to be revealing. They often use vague phrasing for no good reason. I could see vague phrasing being used to delay backlash.

The Elemental Siphon adjustment had summoners split over pulling their hair out or excitement because it was so vague.

Sorry but that's HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE.
No other way to put it. Literally HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE.

Make the spells scale with skill more, make them scale with int more, make them scale with character level. Holy *** there's literally infinite ways to make them ACTUALLY GOOD AT LEVEL 99 IN ILVL 119.

I shouldn't have to do the work for them(which took me literally less than 10 seconds to think of btw) while these people are being paid to do it.

More like a certain thf is having buyer's remorse about their relic and wants Mercy Stroke to be less horrible in comparison to make it seem like it wasn't a poor use of gil. No honor among thieves.

And maybe they can buff Blade: Metsu (or fix it) as well lol

is that an aura on that Gurf

***

So, Yes, blu gift for traits should be what they adjust, what will they ACTUALLY adjust.... Probably resist petrify.

Adjustments for certain weapon types, scythe and h2h need that love. Spear too.

I would love to see stroke/stab/bite bumped back up. smite set back to pre nerf from 2013, ukkos set back to 2013. Embrava set back to 2013 cause why not, MG does the same exact thing and it's ok. Entropy fixed. Exenerator not suck balls. Drakes be reasonable. what will they actually do though, adjust club cause flash nova is op or some dumb ***.

Morta ambuscade though, that (should) be different than bluzerg. Gurfurlur too. I don't *think* blu will be the ONRY job for ambuscade next month. (lol no i'm lying bluzerg gurfurlur.)

Metsu is fine as is.

Sounds like a personal problem tbh. Do ambuscade month in and month out without BLU only.

Kamu is what needs adjusted.

Last time I played basically every relic/mythic WS sucked. They made the mythic/relic WS good by giving them like 40% damage boosts on 99 emp/relics.

That's a stupid way to balance them but uh, do they STILL suck even after those boosts WITH those weapons?

I think mythic WS should be usable and at least equal to other WS without having to have a 99 mythic. Kinda silly when something you AUTO LEARN is stronger in every situation than something you need to unlock...

I'm glad they fixed a lot of the quested WS to be good!

Since it's needed for aftermath, I don't think many people notice.

With the right setup, the WSs can do some decent damage, especially from skillchains.

Yeah skillchains being good has made a lot of subpar WS a lot better. Gone are the days of spamming 1 WS! Skillchains(and magic bursts) being good makes the game a LOOOOOOT better as a whole.

Aftermaths are also a super cool concept.

I still think that mythic WS should be more usable without needing a mythic since you have to unlock the WS.

Would also be cool if you could use relic WS without owning the relic. More WS = more fuN! Maybe unlock them the say way as emp WS?(Or did they do that?)

Its 30% on mythics, 40 on relics boost of the WSs for those weapons and some are good with or without the weapon like every other WS, asking for every WS to be good at any level is kinda silly, lets spam fast blade!!!! <_<

Btw you need to check your facts straight about "nerfing" jobs really, raging about blu being OP really tells how little you know about this game, ill give you some examples:

Blu isnt the best healer, it has heals but doesnt excel on it, doesnt have the best debuffs (sure it has a good gravity yay), it can DD really well but war, drk, rng can do it really well too
my point is, why all the cries now?

Blu always had spells for self haste, debuff, heal and buff, is 1 job gift giving blu that big of an edge? i dont think so, and before nerfs you all should check jobs like MNK who's been in the shadow god knows for how long, revamp what's broken instead of *** up more things (like what happened with BST after ppl cried and cried).

Oh and if you want broken stuff, how about: unresisted geo debuffs that makes HELM fights a laugh when u spend 250m on an idris, SCH doing the job of 2 DDs all by itself or nukers MBing 99999 dmg
for nealy 0 hate, if you cant see these things as broken then you
just have a big hate thing on blu, simple and clean.

Be nice!

I haven't said a single thing about BLU in this thread.

Also obviously level up low level WS shouldn't be good, but it isn't too much to ask for all end game(especially QUESTED ones or ones that COST MERITS to obtain) to be good. If you have to put into effort for a WS, it should probably not suck.

*Looks at profile*
Yep didn't still didn't make a Mandau, thought something crazy had happened there for a moment.

Kiyara is the one with a Mandau. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

Aside from all the bull, Stroke IS underpowered (all relic ws still are) they don't scale with tp, that's pretty failtastic.

Also the fact that they are single hit and have a chance to miss regardless if accuracy is capped. (DRK with low HP? Cata gonna miss!)

Wtf, why's people asking some top DD jobs to get even more damage boost?

Catastrophe alone is a good reason they will never let us learn relic weapon skills like we can mythic and empyrean. Catastrophe on a Liberator or even more-so a Dacnomania would be unbelievably broken.

Scourge on Lionheart would also be pretty bonkers.

Except that Catastrophe has a 50/50 miss... not once "when I needed it" has cata landed lol.... constantly let down u_u;;

(The cata miss heard round the world @ urteil that's not a rarity, thats absolutely commonplace.)

And if sanguine is OK then cata is perfectly fine. so yeah. You don't get aftermath without having the weapon.
