[dev1010] Job Adjustments

[Colenzo]

see? doesnt that just look SO FUCKING AWESOME ?! YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT IT DOES!!!!

[Nattack]

your words are quite the spice, sir

[Shadowhusky]

Still no fix for steal and mug. Typical SE.

[Kaisha]

Been awhile. What's wrong with steal/mug?

[Raen Ryong]

What's right with them?!

[Yugl]

You should get sent to GM jail anytime you use it.

[Cail]

cut my life into peices every 5 minutes

Hahaha yesssss. I remember all those DRK party macros with those sweet lyrics!!

[Draylo]

They are useless outside of Aura steal. Can't Mug anything anymore...

[Kaisha]

As in they're broken period, or just something SE neglected to apply to Abyssea NMs and mobs, where most people hang out nowadays?

[Plow]

can't mug anything in abyssea, not sure about steal but I can't think of any mobs in abyssea that would have shit worth stealing a-la dynamis mobs

[Draylo]

Yep that is it. I guess they feared the amount of gil THF could make ? Despoil sucks too ;x

Mug gives you maybe 5k gil every 15 minutes if you are REALLY lucky. Steal never steals anything worth a damn and its only purpose is to give THF a Dispel effect (with Aura Steal) ... every 5 minutes.

[Taint]

I have 5/5 muted soul so I wouldn't die so horribly when zerging thens. Back when zerging things as drk was the thing to do, I mean.

Yeah back when stuff was zerged with DRKs. JoL,Tia,Kirin etc MS 5/5 was very nice.

Good ol' Aura Steal...

I remember many a Dynamis run where Aura Steal was my only source of Protect/Shell/Haste. /cry

I don't care if Assassin's Charge is better for DDing. I love the wild card that is Aura Steal and all the crazy shit I've stolen with it over the years.

[Shadowhusky]

Steal should be a ~2 minute CD. Mug should be on a 5 minute CD. That's what's wrong with them.

I believe mug was originally on a 5 minute cooldown before NA release.

Then it was changed, and people said it was either the following:

Mobs like KB and NMS were purposely not being killed
or
Back then gil was worth way more than it was today so it was bringing in too much gil

There might have been a few more reasons but thats all I recall

I miss stealing gold beastcoins from gobs in bibiki good times

To quell some of your concerns about the adjustments set to take place regarding VIT and critical hits, you'll be glad to know that this adjustment will only be for player characters and NOT monsters. Additionally, in regards to the note about "certain job traits will see their maximum level of effectiveness adjusted by equipment, magic, and/or job abilities" have no fear as no negative adjustments will be taking place. Instead the limits on these will be increased, making players even stronger. http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/im...lies/smile.png

Well, I guess I can stop crapping myself over the possibility of a critical damage nerf.

[Toth]

Whew indeed. No PUP nerf with our pupdate (nerf as in SP's critical hit damage) :D

[Ocara]

I wonder if they're going to have mobs with significant critical hit rates in the future then, since reducing damage on 1% of mob attacks seems kind of silly.
