    What if the job is a total shit fest and ignored in every event because it doesn't put out enough damage in long fights or do anything to support the other roles around it, like what if they're primarily a enfeeble type class with their attacks but everything will have no effect on bosses where it would matter like T7 and T9.

    Damage/DPS I'd understand, but I don't think Yoshida is dumb enough to make a job ineffective in end game.

    I started as a thief christmas of 2002 and was a 75THF alllll the way up through WoTG, no other 75s. They can't make a class that was more ignored, lol. Also the fc me and my friends started apparently has the server firsts for t7 and t8, so I haz the power to make classes welcome!

    Not that I believe yoshi will make a class that's useless.

    This is not FFXI, the XIV team actually has a pretty good concept of balance unlike someone else.

    Hey man, they already said they're aware BLM is underperforming in new Coil are planning to make adjustments to bring back to where it should be.

    Sure, it's something that should've been thought of BEFORE content was released but let us all recall the underpeforming jobs in XI who never received buffs.

    A shitty standard to hold but everyone's deadset on comparison to XI ANYWAYS THE POINT IS LEVIATHAN THEME WITH FEMALE VOCALS

    The problem is that the game is designed around 4 DD classes. So if they made a pure buffer / debuffer. that pure buffer would have to do a pretty crazy job of enhancing the classes

    You're probably confused as hell as to what day it is in Japan.

    Buffers and debuffers will be more at home when 24-man content finally rolls around. In an 8-man, you'd need at least +20% damage worth of buffs in order for using them in T7 or T8 to make sense.

    If they could make a class that parses around 50% of the damage of a regular DPS, but enhances everyone else by 20%, people would use it. It should be direct damage buffs though (like defense down that actually sticks), not something that only enhances certain types of damage. And it should also have some other party buffs for when fights aren't a DPS race.

    300
    300
    300

    = 1200

    360
    360
    360
    150
    = 1,230

    About Classes and Jobs

    --I have a friend from FFXI who really loves thief, will thief ever be implemented?
    Y: I said this before, but we'll have some more information coming up at Japan EXPO, E3, and Gamescom where we'll disclose a lot of new information. So.... maybe? There will be a new job, but I'm not sure whether it will be thief.
    For those you gnashing your teeth about new classes/jobs the dates of the events he's teasing are:

    E3 (June 10th ~ 12th)
    Japan Expo (July 2nd ~ 6th)
    Gamescom (August 13th ~ 17th)

    You got a month and a half of waiting.

    I wonder if 2.3 is planned for August 20th-ish (although with 2.28 in May that's quite a large time for .02 patches, so maybe 2.35?)
