I’m not defeatist, I just realize the reality of the server lol. No data gathered will matter. Nas will make another attempt at correcting macc/nuke damage on mobs to more accurately reflect what he considers era accurate.

Sounds like the alazon passed a stats class and now he thinks he's an ANOVA ninja.

I've tolerated a lot of weird insults in this thread, but this clearly takes the cake for being the strangest. The most complex mathematical concept that's been discussed in this thread is percentages. No one is suggesting anyone do anything but organize a table that measures frequency of four discrete categories. Now, I can't speak for you or your life experience, but everyone I know learned how to use fractions in grade school - so excuse me if I treat this suggestion as if it's no big deal. I'll write your name down and make sure I don't confuse you with these kinds of basic concepts in the future.

Interesting contrast.... would that make Wolffhardt the eiron in this little drama? Hehehe.

Can't believe this thread is still going after Nasomi's response in the Q&A.

While I am not looking forward to maybe having to push to the 320/120 benchmark again, at least if we knew that was where he is going with the system we could figure out how to deal with it.

I take it you mean the "moving target" quote. Here's a hint about that one: people generally refer to things as moving targets when they don't know where the target is (as it has moved from where they thought it was). It heavily implies he's had trouble in the past knowing if buffs or nerfs are needed, or perhaps how much of a buff or nerf is needed. You know what would remedy both of those problems? Gathering data.

I can't believe this needs to be said again. Even if Nasomi buffs BLM, there will still be this exact same thread. There are people for which only extreme buffs will be satisfactory. People will whine and complain that BLM is too weak - and other players who don't enjoy BLM will whine and complain that they're too strong. The best way to shut down all complaints is to prove that the server's formulae are accurate to (or at bare minimum in the ballpark of) era content.

But from this thread I seem to understand that this community's way of dealing with things is community figureheads insisting they're right with zero actual evidence and their sycophants all post agreements for each other and bottom of the barrel tier insults to anyone trying to rock the boat. Truly degenerate.

Glad you’ve finally reached the correct understanding.

Can you disappear now?

Oh good grief.... beginning to wonder if you are just skimming things, or it is a comprehension issue....

Nasomi commented specifically about MACC:

"Magic Accuracy is also coming down the line, in the next couple weeks."

That was a quote from the stream. He is aware of the disparity, and is planning changes.

As has been stated by others already within this thread... those who know the jobs impacted by this intuitively know something is off...no data needed to be collected to verify it...they instinctively know it needs tweaking. By your own admission, you don't play those jobs, so don't have the benefit of that perspective. So I get why you keep calling for data, as you have no clue about what is off... but those who understand the jobs, do.

And apparently, Nasomi does as well... as he is already committed to working on the issue. I will say it again... he knows the code in play, so he best knows how to test it as well as how best to tweak it to bring it more towards his intended vision for the system.

At this point, we need to let him do his thing. If he wants assistance with testing it, he will let us know.

Pot meet Kettle- You insisted that people that they should spend a few hours collecting data under specific conditions to help/persuade Nas on how to proceed with BLM changes despite the fact that you have no evidence that Nas has any interest in said data collection. It was your assumption. People tried to tell you that it would probably be futile and you responded by calling them lazy. I'm not even picking sides in the debate (because it's stupid given that Nas already has plans to address it) but you are guilty of the very things you are accusing others of so your credibility is basically zero
