Christ on a Crispix L oh fucking L.

Anyway this update will probably hurt most on stuff like Shen, Jailer of love, Wyrms, and kings... not that it'd make fights impossible, but fights are going to be a whole lot longer since alliances will have to wait for resistance to go down or just burn through it. Or rather avoid spammage for strategy. I don't think its too drastic of a change overall.

edit: omg this post lands me spammer to the max title. Do I get a cookie?

that's why only the rangers that were good at the job and loved it stayed with rng after the nerf. I'm not going to deny that rng cost an arm and a leg to maintain. But, war and mnk are not cheap either to be good. A lot of their cursed abj. gear costs a lot to get made. Second, look at the weapons.... Juggernaught is outrageous and maneater/woodvilles are fairly expensive as well. And take a look at crosscounters and other badass mnk hand to hand. PLUS, take a look at all the STR+ gear they have to invest in.


I kinda agree with your assessment, but there's still alot of stuff for both WAR and MNK you gotta put some effort into obtaining. Well. . . I should say it's really like that for almost every job. You got the standard equip, the high quality stuff that eveyone wants, and then all the other stuff that's really good, but nigh impossible to get by just yourself. (I.E. Black Belt)

Alot of the stuff is just really expensive cause there's so many people leveling the jobs, that it makes it a case of supply and demand. I'm not sure how much the Magic Damage nerf will effect this though, because you can't really gauge the reaction most people will have to it. I personally think that BLM's are satisfied enough with their jobs, that they'll probably stay BLM. If not . . . then yeah, I can see other possibilities. :b

um.....how many ppl use rng's still?(seriously)


had I not got thf af2 hands I still would have. Rng still kicks ass if you have the right setup/merits. Give a good rng red curry, a good DD tank (WAR OR PIMPED OUT NIN ONLY), and a good brd that knows how to pull and can keep songs on 24/7 and the rng will outparce 95% of anybody in xp parties.... Yes, this DOES mean I am saying that rngs can still outparce even the most pimped war's and mnk's in xp parties if they know their head from their ass and have red curry+great brd..

On HNM/GODS/KINGs Rngs are still great damage and can still pull hate from even the best pld tanks. Again, all they need is a brd and be a decent rng.

All the rng nerf really did was weed out the people that played the job because of the damage vs. played the job because they loved it and were good at it. And those that stuck with it were just forced to learn how to play it with a different style.

...................... It also showed what rngs used windower after the update and what ones didn't lol. The ones that used windower used a distance patch to make sure they were in the "sweet spot" every time therefore doing FAR MORE damage. Essentially SE fucked over 99.9% of the rngs that play on PS2 and xbox.


What does it make me if I quit after the update, but still love the job, but couldn't afford it back then and currently is playing war right now?

That makes you a loser, Armani. Someone move this to the drama section since we have all the job v job things going on.

Mandos posts a picture of an open can of worms in regards to a comment towards Armani, ironically, neither gets the cliche. lols ensue. That's all.
