it eats half of the current gauge, so would have to swap at low amounts like 20 or so, right after spending.

Random Thoughts.....What are you thinking?
Gaze of the First Brood.
We Nidhogg now. Or maybe Hraesvelg :P I mean... we're a good dragon on the inside!
To be fair we were always technically Nidhogg since the entire essence of becoming a Dragoon is imparting ourselves with a portion of Nidhogg's power 0:

Me: Wow, RDM's chainspell mechanic seems great. And I get to CDC, that makes it even better. Guess I'll have to drop Summoner, after all.
Yoshi: Bahamut. Me: I'm gonna play Summoner.

I kind of liked to think that our inner dragon got shaped by the presence of Midgardsormr watching over us more than any other dragon. But then I mean, Hraesvelgr granted us his eye to kill Nidhogg. Idk. /shrug Dunno, red was specifically Nidhogg's thing. And it's a temporary state.
I figure we learn how to tap into that power briefly, so as to not corrupt ourselves, like with Egi's and Dreadwyrm Trance. Also, berserk didn't give pacification in the demo. That is because they cut off WAR's segment 9~10 seconds before berserk would run out :D
And yeah yeah, I know. I just don't want to be evil dragon! Another AoE, Fang and Claw and Wheeling Thrust seemingly tied in the same combo, and Penta Thrust. I'll be as many damned evil dragons as I need to be for that.

Healers are such divas on XIV >>; God, the amount of #WHMQQ on the OF is sickening.
The ability to shield block magic attacks as a permanent passive is really nice though. [EDIT] Some of the new tooltips translated. [EDIT2] Google Doc Notes from Live Stream

Why are WHMs QQing on OF?
Someday I will go back to 14....someday....

Holy ***, what, Maim applies the slashing debuff now and not a damage increase? Are they putting the damage increase on Storm's Eye then? What what what? Seems like they're killing WAR softly.

Was thinking, and it was probably obvious, but I guess Estinien would make sense as our sensei for 60~70. Might be why we get Nidhogg powers.
Valefor.Prothescar said: »   As much as I love WAR, it's hard to deny that it needed to be toned back. I know Eye gave a buff to the WAR, so it's possible they just swapped Maim and Eye effects. We'll have to wait and see.
Or maybe plot twist, Tiamat breaks free and becomes our sensei instead!

However XIV expansion is going to hit in a month's time, while will absolutely change how the meta is played. WHM's complaining about their relevance in the new raid meta before any concrete evidence is released with full toolkit of every single job as well how raid mechanics / progression is designed is just hyperbolic whining at this point since everything about tool interaction, party synergy, and raid fights is going to change. For all we know, WHMs new DPS kit will allow them to overpower the utility DPS gains from other kits, this solidifying their slot into the raid meta. *Shrugs* It's just too early to say what exactly will be "meta" until 4.0 is released.

I'm curious how MNK is going to be balanced. They went a little nuts with the team synergy thing and it was already highest ST melee DPS.

I wonder how their Chakras will interact with each other. One big thing of concern is the fact that double MNK will reduce LB gain, I believe. Also, does MNK have a second combo action to replace Dragon's Kick? Assuming Dragon's Kick remains the same, only one MNK would need to keep it up. The second should be using something else at that point. I don't know much about the MNK kits as a whole to be honest. Bootshine shares the same spot as DK, and when there is more than one Monk, one is assigned DK ***, and the other should be doing an Auto Crit Bootshine every time.
Monk's rotation is mad simple. The only hard thing about it is keeping stacks through phase transitions, but that's supposed to be its limiting factor anyway.

GL's getting another 2 seconds added to the duration. Again.

Yeah, and that Fists of Earth stance is basically going to let you keep it/refresh it after the big busters if I read the effect right. So they got another way, other than PB/Formshift etc. to make phase transitions more bearable.
This is one playerbase meme I just haven't understood at all. So many people in the last year saying, "Delete Monk. Monk sucks." when it couldn't be further from the truth. It sucked in that it was an incredibly selfish job. As good as its personal DPS was, team synergy won the day by miles.
Also, exaggerations and whatnot. Over a decade later and loldrg is still a thing. |
