RDM is almost non-existance when seeking PT from 35-60 A few that shows up when understandingly do not have refresh.

I bid 700k on the scroll that's up right now and didn't get it. Jesus.

Let's do the Time Warp again!

New to Nasomi and have a question? PM me, I'd be glad to help!

I'd personally just really appreciate a nerf to their breath attacks so that it's actually viable to tank them. I know people press "BCNMs required specific setups" well that'd be fine if the dragons varied where some took reduced magic damage, or had to be kited etc. But they are all the same mob and as my main job being DRK it's really depressing. They don't even use the same consistent breath attack so you can't even counter play with resistances.

This could be a fun thing to do with a group of people regardless of item scarcity. Instead it is just a suck cheese fiesta.

Blm for OWNMs, Blm for TOAU Nms, Blm for Toau parties, blms for sky, blm for easy BCNM, Blm for Ouryu CoP fight, Blm for practically anything on this server of any relevance in terms of progression, aside from some areas of the leveling experience like KRT.

Gotta love the diversity. You can be a one trick pony blm and do all, you can be a one trick melee job and do heck all.

That's COP for ya. If we can get non-exp aspects of TOAU rolling melee will balance out nicely.

Heck me up deadwing. Take me awaaaaaaay.

Same.

you can play other jobs, sure, but when blackmage (and summoner as well, actually, via thunder II from ramuh etc) are doing 2x the damage they were in ERA with spells, something is messed up with the damage calculation.


are you actually going to act like elemental magic (and by extension, black mage) isnt over-tuned on nasomi? have you seen level 12 blms with no subjob hitting IT+ lizards in dunes for 60+ damage with aero?
in era, that spell MIGHT hit for like 20-25.

edit** forgot to mention, blm also get a reputation for being stupidly broken because of how level sync works. melee characters gear (weapons) dont sync very well, you're better off using a lower level weapon, and a lot of players dont know this. when blm sync down, their weapon is largely irrelevant to their damage.

I know nothing about programming so forgive my ignorance...

If it's not a simple fix to fix the way people were cheating the bcnm fights, how hard would it be for Nas to just re-enable the bcnm fights and ban anyone intentionally cheating right away? Would he have to be keeping watch on something 24/7 in order to catch them, or is there something in some kind of log he can look back at? Does the game have history logs of what every player does so you could actually look back at someone cheating and see that they quickly traded their drops to another character to try and save their money?

My theory is Nas just wanted to get data on the OWNM fights so he overplayed how difficult the BCNM problem was to patch and is seeing how people tackle OWNMs.

I hope seeing every party that kills one be BLM(2-3), RDM(1-2) and a THF(which is hilarious because TH theory is amazing) is not what he considers successful.
