I was quite suprised with the rework
Oh, I didn't even look at RDM. I was paying too much attention to the melee changes. I'm glad Monk got itself a ranged ability in Flint's Reply and Fire's Reply. Though, I'm a little split on the removal of Six Sided Star, I feel that extra stun utility really aided Monk. Curious what your thoughts are on the updated kit.
I might try. I spent over 6 hours on rank games with my warrior , I cannot get out of the bronze tier 😢
On JP frontlines, RDM is consistently placing in the top 3. It's insane. Meanwhile DRKs are much rarer now.
lol roasted that dancer in the end xD
what was changed?
Can you try out a max lvl ninja and let me know what you think 1-10 post update
I deffo need to give RDM a go now. I hated the Shift change
i know a lot of people dont like the update but man i love the reworks and i personally think ff will have a nice pvp future and god bless yoshi p for caring about pvp.
I'm digging in playing Gunbreaker even more now when they removed all that Junction and most of stuff is just build in and we got AoE Slow.
It was a glorious battle 😀 I liked how we were just f*cking around farming kills while Ava was rallying the troops for the win. RDM might be busted but BLM really shouldn't be slept on either.
I am conflicted about the changes. On one hand gnb and rdm got buffed overall, on the other they removed the mechanics that made them fun for me :'(. They also took away my mom stun and they also reworked black mage to where now I cannot be a flare machine gun. Still need to keep testing stuff. Sage having a draw in effect is also a decision I can get behind
Huge changes with the reworks. Hope to join you in a match soon. Played a lot with Ava already she’s a great drk
The hit detection changes just made so much of the combat feel smoother
BLM changes feel pretty good. Less CC, but more staying power IMO. Takes some time getting out of the mindset of old BLM, but I like both styles.
Im really enjoying Flame Wreath, especially since it works on all spells, so you can swap to ice while chasing and still dmg through guard on the flames.
Deep Freeze being tied to Frost Star isnt as bad as I thought it was going to be. It's alot easier to get a deep freeze that sticks now since people are immediately planning or outranging once they get an ice stack.
Insta burst means I can retire my swiftcast macro. No longer will I have to stand still a moment while running to get my burst shield. I just pop burst then sprint. I've seen a ton of success surviving in FL because of it and Frost Wreath.
Just with those two things I canninch closer to the front line and now the cast times on fire arent that bothersome. Still need more games to get a gameplab going, but I find it fun.
idk if it always did it but the melee combo goes through guard. love being able to bully people guarding on the crystal in cc
Haven't tried RDM yet but enjoying AST so far.
i watched this and decided to give RDM a go. Ended up with 14/0/34 2.2 million at the top of the board. Man they were COOKING with RDM
Haven't tried out RDM yet but damn this looks fun
A little off topic but all i can see on the top of the leaderboards of frontline are ASTs after the patch, they now have a reaper dash which now people combine with macrocosmos, dealing huge aoe damage in a split second with little to no counter play.
I've been in a couple matches where me along with most of my team just get instantly nuked by a squad of coordinated ASTs, it feels like to me that they tried to design an escape tool but never considered people would abuse it along with the biggest hitting skill both AOE size and damage wise :/
Are yall just figuring out the changes to jobs yourselves? I cant find anything in the patch notes about job changes
Playing frontline solo is literally hell
Dragoon go brrrrrrr. Red mage has gotten way stroger but the kingbs of DPS are still Dragoon and Ninja. Kinda sucks, ngl. I wish RDM was able to contend.
My pvp experience is usually just being very careful, maybe getting one or two assists and at times randomly dying instantly xD
Fun to see someone doing well tho
Hello! Thanks for the vid, always make me wanna test all classes! Quick question, which class would you tell is the best 1v1er now? Still gnb, or rdm? Or another one maybe monk? Thanks for your answer
