  • NIN and SAM SJ abilities nerfed!

    just for those servers who have not had maintaince yet, just to let you know, Utsusumi when used as a NIN subjob is not the same as before:

    1-2 shadows for ichi
    2-3 shadows for ni

    the same is the case when using Meditate as SAM SJ:
    60% tp in 3 minutes

    (the normal is 100%tp in 3 minutes)

    Heh, can anyone confirm this? I want to poke some fun at my LS mate. =)

      SAM SUB has always been like that... Also Ichi and Ni were always nerfed weren't they?

        Yes, there was always 1 less shadow than the normal.

          My Utsusemi Ichi still blocks 3. However Ni as sub blocked only 3 instead of 4.

          Samurai has always been 60% TP recover with meditate

            yeah, the SAM sub was always like that, sorry. But for those who are not in the servers that have been updated:

            From 5/16/2004 19:00 to 20:00 (PDT)
            World: Bahamut, Shiva, Titan
            *Maintenance was completed according to schedule

            From 5/17/2004 19:00 to 20:00 (PDT)
            World: Ramuh, Phoenix, Carbuncle
            *Maintenance was completed according to schedule

            then you won't see a difference. a level 75 war/nin in my LS said he almost died becuase of this ... of course, if someone from these servers can verify, I will like to know if this is 100% true or not.

              Before this "patch", Ni /sub has always been 3...

                hm, maybe I should rephrase. POST-patch (aka if you are in one of the 6 servers mentioned above), then I "heard" that utsusumi as a sub works like this:

                Ichi - 1 OR 2 shadows (it could be either, its random!)
                Ni - 2 OR 3 shadows (it could be either, its random too!)

                Of course, I don't have a nin sub high enough to test myself, but as I said, a level 75 WAR/NIN in my LS said he almost died cause of this. I still am wondering if anyone can confirm if this is indeed the case.

                :confused:

                  I can confirm in about 4 hours due to the patch that went on Fenrir last night (about to goto class).

                    This better not be true, I didnt notice any difference in one of my PTs last night. I didn't notice the NIN casting more than usual. Can anybody confirm this or point a link to an official update letter or something? This is terrible news if its true; NIN will have lost way to much to be a worthwhile job if utsusemi:ichi only blocks 1 or 2 attacks randomly that would essentially take away blink tanking which wouldnt be bad if they added in like throwing WS or something.

                        Hmmm, if this is true this really sucks. I don't want to have to buy more powders than I'm already buying. >_<

                        Not to mention that Thieves already suck at soloing so this will just make it harder X_x

                              Why shouldn't it be nerfed? I for one call that Ichi as a subbed skill should only do 1 or 2, and Ni should only do 2. Everything else gets halved, so why not ninja's spells? I mean, you arn't a full ninja!
