Bleh, I would of preferred a boost to all other melees instead of nerfing rangers. Would be nice to know what its like to get 9+K xp an hour.

I played them for fun, doing less damage as a rng = not fun, losing hate while doing nothing wrong = not fun. ;3Originally Posted by Sekkite

You can't deny that a good chunk of people who level ranger or ninja as a second job do it because their first job was found out to be a waste of space at end game(and for most of the other game too).Originally Posted by Fira

Does no one see how this benefits RNG/NIN?(the utsusemi thing)
haha
u get utsusemi san now, 500 shadows but 0 hate till u lose it all lol X)
it seems more based around pld getting hate back alot fast when rangers get hate from sidewinder/slug shot

This sounds like the balance RNGs have been needing.Soon, the distance of the monster from the player will determine the damage and accuracy of ranged attacks. This determination will vary from weapon to weapon, as will the ideal distance for maximum damage. In addition, the higher the monster's level is with regard to the player, the less damage will be dealt with a ranged attack. This system is similar to that of melee attacks, but the difference in damage will not be as great.
Oh yeah, and... I wonder how much this is going to nerf Dynamis Lord DPSing.
Depends on Dynamis Lord's level I guess.
Does anyone see how this benefits BLM/NIN?
Because I do. And I'll SJ it too and laugh in the faces of all the HNM in the world that don't pwn me with AoE. =x
Haste+Utsusemi+MeritedEVAskill+EVAgear => pwn
Maybe I'll still have reasons to use my 75 PLD. :D But this means I need to get nin to 75 asap before the changes happen.
But something bugs me. Part of the reason I leveled ninja was to fight gods / kirin / CoP wyrms with it, does that mean ninja can't do it very well anymore? I can still hold / solo a bunch of shit but, man...
I guess a good thing about the utsusemi nerf, is it should get alot of ninjas away from evasion builds and more towards str/atk builds to keep hate, atleast for xp anyways.
If you can level a job at 58 to 75 before maintenance...Originally Posted by Zetah
you're hacking or some shit.
Because you don't have that much time.
My nin is 65 at the moment lol
2-3 RNG PT in Bibiki Bay killing goblins and Catoblepas ftw
And remember how it took 30k exp to level up at level 61? Well I'm level 65 and I still don't even need 30k exp to level.
So any GOOD exp party with lots of rangers will get you like, one level a party.
i just read it on the german pol site, this is the worst bullshit i ever heared and makes nin tanking a lot harder now without sata, if you dont waste 100k/hour tools, even then its damn hard now.... PLD/NIN and NINmain are weak if they really do this, i cant believe imagin that, you use nin tools as hell now.... tank hell perfect...
?? absorb 1 shadow
?? absorb 1 shadow
?? absorb 1 shadow
?? Lizzy attacks BLM ect ect
mobs will run crazy now probably ;; with nin tanks
Before this update, yes.
After this update?
WARx3 OK
This one WAR was dual wielding axes and pulling hate off my NIN without him voking with relative ease. ~80dmg/hit, I'm sorry, but a low level NIN, even one spamming elementals, cannot keep up with that shit.
Get me 3 WARs like that, and they'll own rangers after this patch. At least they aren't affected by the distance they are from the mob. God, what a stupid as fucking hell addition to the system.
And Bercus, as Taru, we have enough of a pain in the ass time keeping hate w/o Enmity gear anyway. Maybe that will still keep the difference in our favor after the patch. Hopefully it's very little enmity loss. Either way, it'll help our NIN or our BLM ^.^
