The Horde refers to the Dravanian Horde, the dragon people who has been waging war on Ishgard for years. Their master Nidhogg got killed by the dragoon Estinien but managed to come back to life through the body of the very one who slew him. He now seeks to exact his revenge by destroying Ishgard once and for all with the aid of the Dravanian Horde. Thus the title of the patch "Revenge of the Horde".

But they're not better. In some situations their kit is amazing but overall they're not really overpowered. Take away their Galvanize tricks and they'll be left to rot. Autistic ASTs need a reality check. Unfortunately I can see some sorta retarded value adjustment happening like they did with BRD this patch because Yoshi-hack cannot into game design.

>Opinion: The Post

I play either AST or SCH, depending on the mood I'm in and what content my static is currently running, meaning I either mainheal as AST or I off-heal as SCH.

It's so, so, SO painfully easy to raid as SCH.

SCHland is:
>Throwing DoTs on the boss, mindless DPS
>Micromanage fairy
>Mitigate occasionally for mechanics that actually need it, otherwise toss out a lustrate here and there

Mainhealing
>SCH bitchboy is too obsessed with DPS to ever actually help you
>You're entirely on your own, fairy is negligible
>Have to watch over 7 other retards
>If you fuck up due to lack of healing, it's entirely your fault and you're detracting away from SCH dps by forcing him to help you heal.

Scholar land is a walk in the fucking park. You're given amazing tools to do very few jobs; the only time anyone gets on your case is if your DPS is slightly lacking.

I had my co-healer main heal for a while and he hated it. IT was like giving him heart palpitations.

I'ts good to have options and being able to swap between a couple jobs that share gear, but you know, just play what you enjoy, every raid comp is viable unless you're doing world progression, I have PLD WAR & DRK all around the same ilvl and I can play all 3 decently, but I play PLD just because I like it, even though I acknowledge it's the easier one to play (not as bad now though) and the one with less dps.

You can't "Just take another DPS" when healers get forced into solo healing shit because of searing fire in A7S, and the enrage is a very real issue for progressing statics.

WAR's fun isn't about the big numbers from fell cleave unless you have brain damage. The class is fun because its design is solid and works perfectly, it didn't get any less fun with the overall tank DPS nerf and it wouldn't become less fun if you reduced Maim from 20% to 15%, or made Halone+Delirium combined stronger than Storm's Path on its own, to throw a bone to PLD/DRK compositions.

You have Divine Seal, you have Cure III, you have motherfucking Assize and Asylum, and specifically to deal with your complaint you have PoM, quite possibly the strongest cooldown in the game period, maybe focus on the strengths of your class instead of envying about the strengths of others?

Pallies have come a long way since 3.0 though, after the str nerf their dps is a lot closer to the other 2 tanks than it was before, you'd be surprised, as MT you're gonna lose some dps even on sword oath because you need to put RoH into your rotation for enmity/str debuff, but being able to trigger shield swipe trough sheltron makes up a bit for it. And yeah, clemency and divine veil are life savers, even though you shouldn't really need to use clemency in an ideal world, but that rarely happens.

Honestly at this point the fixes I'd suggest for PLD are comparatively minor:
-Make Halone a bit stronger (290 potency maybe) and/or increase the enmity modifier to the 5.5x standard of other tanks.
-Do something with Clemency, anything.
-Give us some manner of spammable AoE, even if its very weak, like 50 potency.
>>
>>340209881
>even though you shouldn't really need to use clemency in an ideal world, but that rarely happens.

There will always be moments when the healer does something really dumb and has to book it with low health, or when a dps shits the bed and gets raised.

I've found it pretty good to precast when someone is getting raised. Really eases the pressure.

Maybe give it some DRK style procs with shield blocks for CoS.

Are you fucking autistic? Did you not follow a single piece of the 3.0 story?

You know, the story that literally takes you through the RUINS OF SHARLAYAN and to one of their home bases in present day Idyllshire? Nobody's talking about Nym you battered autist, all of the Dravanian Hinterlands consists of Sharlayan. We've been there.

Not that guy but the confusion is that there's two fucking Sharlayans. There's the Sharlayan homeland (named Sharlayan) which is somewhere not in Eorzea, then there's the Sharlayan colony in Eorzea (ALSO named Sharlayan) that's ingame as Hinterlands/Idyllshire.

Yeah I agree completely, again, clemency is great and a life saver, was just pointing out that outside some mechanics where maybe a healer needs to go out of range, the rest of the situations you're gonna be using it is basically because someone else fucked up, hence why the "ideal world" thingy.

>>340210090
even though I agree PLD aoe is shit, I think it's not as necessary for a MT pally to have much more than it has now, clemency would be awesome off the GCD and timed though, getting casts interrupted just destroy the entire purpose of that skill sometimes.

Not even. Everything a PLD can do, both DRK and WAR can do better.
>>
>>340211239
Well, I would say because warrior requires a bit of a higher skill cap to play properly (I think the hardest tank to actually master is DRK), also, pallies mitigation is fucking unmatched, and hallowed ground is a god tier skill, even allowing you to completely avoid stacks from some raid bosses and stay on dps stance. I main PLD but after seeing the 3.0 to 3.2 era before the str nerf I just can't really complain, warriors were fucking beasts back then compared to what they are now. I think all 3 tanks can perform fairly well in any situation now, at least better than before, even though it's obvious that every comp ends up winning in every sense with a warrior, won't deny that tanking in general could use some balance, but welp, at least it looks like it's going in a nice direction lately.

Shouldnt a brd sing foes regardless? Doesn't it help thier DoTs? So even if there is no other caster dps they should be singing it anyway.

At any rate any fucking bard/mch that uses thier abilites properly will always get my commend. I was kinda of blown away when I started parsing a week or so ago, I got a great mch and do you know how much my dps increases by? Almost 3 fucking hundred.

Bitch, back in the day I held together a Leviathan EX that all our DPS had fallen off of, except for my DRG friend, one other DPS (or maybe one tank), and me as a SCH.

I've never experienced such a flurry of button presses. Healing (keeping in mind the fucking debuff stack), DPSing, micromanaging, the lot. We would have won, too, if it weren't for a poorly-timed ultimate on Levi's part. It's a bit hard to build the meter with only three of us.

I once had an FC mate tell me that she had trouble healing, because she could only reach up to the 4 key. Yeah. So don't lump all controller and keyboard players together: both have their shitters.

I just think the game feels better on controller.

only in dungeons because they still don't have any fucking aoe besides a 25s cd scorn
>>
>>340213717
is there an actual PVE use for this move?
>>
>>340216548

And you didn't check to see how long the maintenance would be?

Fucking retard.

I'm expecting to wipe on every boss in Mhach City, but I'm doing it at like 7am when the servers come up, since the only people doing it then will be the better players who can figure shit out.
>>
>>340216680
no. I don't even have it on my hotbar
>>
if they put red mage in the game how would you want them to handle it?

i would honestly be ok with a melee based mage that used both tp and mp
>>
>>340216680

No. Wait there are maybe 3 or 4 trash mobs that use buffs that would probably die quicker if you just continued your dps rotation. So yeah, no. No reason to use this move ever outside of PvP
>>
>>340216680
yas, never putting it on your panel

it actually removes some buffs from some enemies, but nothing even close to being significant and worthy TP cost
>>

Then why didn't you make money on duskborne sand when they were hot shit? You gotta plan for these things. You have access to nearly every item in the game--take advantage of it, so that when you can't craft an item, you can buy it. Eventually you'll just be able to brute force everything easy.

>>340216548
If you've ever played this game, you should know by now that a 24 hour maintenance precedes EVERY patch.

>>340215997
I have pentamelded artisans.
And I threw all that money away before realising I have no idea how to craft.

>>340216060
Me too. Moogles are my favourite tribe and I'm genuinely pissed off they became the crafting tribe because it meant I now have to deal with all this bullshit.
Also the mount sucks ass.
I wish they were Gathering quests. Collectables are a pain but at least I understand how gathering works.

>>340216092
Maybe so, but how am I supposed to get to that point if I can't craft anything without breaking it?
>>340216102
Again, I'm poor as shit, and farming HQ mats to blow on botched syntheses is a fractally colossal waste of time.
>>
>>340216890
3.2 was most definitely not 24 hours. Neither was 3.1, or any of the half-patches.

3.0 was the last 24-hour maintenance I can remember, and that was a fucking expansion.

>>340216847
enfire, enthunder, enetcetera with cool sword skills. Allow for them to be melee dps / support ala BRD / MCH

Let them have weaker, instant cast versions of fire, blizzard, thunder etc
>>
A REMINDER THAT NARUMI IS THE BEST SONGBIRD

>>340216890
Not every patch, actually, but they're adding new housing wards this time.
>>
>>340216680
There are a couple things that cast Stoneskin and you can dispel it which is worth a lot more damage than doing True Strike, but you could also just stun/silence the Stoneskin.
>>
>>340216938
If Ixal quests are anything to go by, there will be gathering quests mixed in with the crafting ones.
