FFXIV Random Complaint Thread II: DPS can't count to potato

[Serenseven]

Designed two new jobs with instanced content and didn't expect everyone and their mother to attempt to access those instances immediately and simultaneously? How typical, SE.

I'm with Seravi: Why did I (re-)sign up for this shit again?

Complaining about day one expansion congestion issues

[Twilight Sky]

The issues remind me of Aion head start, might be why I'm so numb to this.

In case no one played that game during that period, basically NCSoft did not expect Aion to take off the way it did. Tiny server capacities, with hugemungus queues, some upwards to 6000. Folks couldn't play for days, and if they did, instances were broken. Sadly that was the day the effectively killed that game.

[The Stig]

Did an order queue form?

Manged to get in a 50/60 roulette on my WHM. Got Aetherochemical Research Facility. Before the second pull, I make a comment to the ninja about how putting poison on would be good. He says it's not in his actions. He admits to using a jump potion. So, for the entire run, there's no poison, no ninjitsu.

Poison has been moved to a passive trait. He wouldn't have it anyways.

Mnk nerfed overall, fuck this class, i'm done. So fucking mad i have to level SAM before doing the MSQ, either that or do MSQ as MCH.

How I feel about MNK just based solely on info. They killed the job by adding exactly nothing to it. For shame.

[Nitsuki]

Riddle of earth is fucking useless, riddle of wind, i don't see much use. Riddle of fire is a fucking bandaid for us losing blood for blood, and even then, it nerfs our gcd speed. They removed touch of death which was a staple, no more fucking mercy stroke in cross class so fuck your extra damage. Mnk is so oversimplified now that it's 123 456 class. Holy fuckshit what the fuck brotherhood i heard doesn't even affect the mnk who casted it, and of course volatile in gaining chakras like we knew.

I don't think no amount of skill speed to affect speed of our auto attacks will remedy the loss of everything else. They removed our stun in steel peak, and put it on one ilm punch which is still useless as all hell, because we need to refresh our TwS, and True strike does more dmg. Good god man, it's like SE really wanted is to fucking play SAM.

Riddle of earth resets greased lightning if we take damage? Why is a mnk taking damage? Lol useless, and WHY ARE YOU GIVING A MELEE DPS WITH A GAP CLOSER LIKE SHOULDER TACKLE WITH FISTS OF EARTH A FUCKING KNOCKBACK?!?

Why play mnk? I need a potd static for SAM.

To add to the Sam and Rdm instances, there's one with the MSQ pretty early on. When you get to Raubahn you'll know what I mean. 3 early instances for 3 obviously high in demand activities. GG Yoshida

Prolly not fair to judge MNK yet until we do actual content with it and compare it to other jobs. I can see Riddle of Earth being useful incase you can't hit something but you're gonna take dmg from an AoE.

However, it's the most uninteresting job with regards to upgrades. If you've been playing it since 2.0, practically nothing has changed for it aside from giving you something to do when you can't punch shit. Same rotation, less buttons. Would it kill them to add something else to chakra like letting us beef up a skill or using chakra to change what a skill does? So much shit they could do but didn't.

[gattsuru]

If it's triggered by roomwides, Riddle could be useful for some invuln phases. There's a number that last too long even with it, especially some of the Primal ultimates, but not all.

I wish they'd make the utility more useful, though, rather than just adding a minor group stat boost. MNK's stun and silence game is obscene, but the last time that mattered was first Coil, and then only because getting a BRD and a PLD to pay attention was a nightmare. But I really doubt they'd put more content like that in again.

[LinktheDeme]

Did an order queue form?

this reminds me of FFXI so much lol

[FHT]

Whats annoys me is people being idiots and expecting optimal rotations from RDM/SAMs in lv50 dungeons, good thing im a tank so I can just ignore it. But damn.. day 1 and the pricks need to argue about this.

[Gokulo]

Nothing surprising in this game

It's obviously an old build, and we need to calm down

After going through WoW's legion launch this makes me cry a little.

do you have to do this for the main quest? Or is this only job related crap?

[Kaisha]

There's an instanced story fight about 30min into the MSQ.
