| Re: Version Update Notice (04/25/2008) As we got an enormous package of job adjustments last update, I'm not expecting much from this one. Probably the PLD shield-reflection spell, maybe the single-target BRD JA, and that's about it. Nothing else has sounded specific enough to come this soon. (Concerning RDM and SMN, making RDM melee worthwhile without overpowering RDM is a very fine line to walk, while with SMN I don't think they've quite figured out what the problem even is.)
Concerning merits, all I'm expecting are group 1s for DNC and SCH. That said, a little balance-tweaking on existing merits, particularly group 2s, certainly wouldn't hurt.
I'm pleasantly surprised to hear that they're giving more attention to chocobo raising and Fellows; while they're at it, though, why not Pankration? That could use the attention more, given that there's no accounting for WotG in it at all -- not even the palette-swapped mobs -- and Enspelled chigoes are so broken.
More than the Pankration stuff, though, I'd like to see a system that allows limited cross-past-nation purchases without having to jump between nations, and some better melee gear for the likes of RDM, THF, NIN, BLU, PUP, and DNC. -- Pteryx |
