deakka :

war-halfway decent tank, halfway decent DD untill 70
mnk- sucks (thank you brady games for this one >.<)
thf- worthless end game except for TH II
whm- RDM is better
RDM- cocky arrogant know it alls
blm- runs like a little sissy from aggro, and cocky arrogant know it all
drk- slow, innaccurate
sam- weak dot
drg- without penta spam, worthless
smn- untill 70, a second rate whm
nin- cocky arrogant tank
pld- crappier than ninja
bard- can level to 75 in a drunken weekend
rng- (used to be) omg l337!!!!
now it's more like "wow...what can they do after the patch"

so just remember everybody has challenges to overcome. Worst case scenario, once each servers arrow prices drop, it'll be a little cheaper at least

your saying ur 70+ and this is what u think? ill go over it again.

war- very good backup tank and high Damage dealer
mnk- good DoT DD and Chi Blast can hit very high.
thf- Good hate control and puller. Can hit some high #'s when dont right
whm- keeps people alive -.-
RDM- Jack of all trades can do anything at a decent lvl of performance. Refresher also.
blm- high AoE and Burst Magic damage
drk- High Hitter and can deal some very high #'s and have good magic for support
sam- can gain TP very fast and deal massive damage when done correctly
drg- awsome support healer with /mage sub, good hate control and High Hitter like dark but w/o the magic.
smn- like BLM can burst every 50-60 seconds (equip depent) and have some efficent Blood Pact effects.
nin- Evasion and Blink tank (not better or worse then PLD. different tank for different situation)
pld- High Defence and White magic tank (not better or worse then NIN, different tank for different situation)
bard- good status effect songs and AoE Refresher , attack bonus etc etc
rng- Wide Scaner (very useful) Shadowbind (great for Gods or other HNM) and very high RA accuracy (when done right) -.-


that is from my experience what each job u said is.

welcome to reading for content 101

if you notice carefully...it's called reading each sentence for comprehension, i said "Just so you're not alone, let's go thru all the job stigma's...maybe it will help you cope better"

These are the sayings everyone has about every job (granted this is from lower level players, but these seeds of trash talking eventually flow uphill)

Every job has a negative stigma to it, and now ranger finally has one about the job and not the individuals behind the player.

RNG can't solo anything anymore..yay?

[Draconite]

ok you people need to stop whinning. when a RNG using Sidewinder on a Easy Prey and hits for 3000 and each arrow hits for 245 then something is wrong. Even on I. Toughs there damage was too big to begin with. SE did the same to DRG/SAM because it was too powerful and now they did it to RNG.

Saviour :

SAM/RNG and NIN/RNG are basically useless.
THF can no longer be benefiting from Xbow/Stats Bolts in EXP party.
RNG, basically cant really farm anymore and the Maat fight will proving whoever come up this idea in S/E designing team is not using his/her brain.

Hmmm well, i kinda disagree with the SAM/RNG, NIN/RNG comments a bit...

one of the reasons is that just because a subjob doesn't work, it doesn't mean the fix is bad. For example, you can say MNK/SAM is useless after the first TP patch, while you can argue "But /SAM gives you higher TP and meditate, then the same argument applies for this that /RNG gives barrage, acc bonus, etc (but just not the dmg.)

THF/NIN actually doesn't seem to be affected much by the nerf, to be honest, i actually hardly notice any acc difference at all on my THF/NIN 75 today farming King Buffaloes(VT/Low IT) in ulegerand range with some ppl from LS. Granted, my xbow was capped at 230, i did not even eat sushi (i used curry, because i was trying to unlock heart snatcher, and the dmg base is low.) My range attack seems to hit just as often as what i normally do against the decorative weapons (VT).... If i were to use sushi for it, i doubt i'd even notice the nerf, because even with curry i could still hit fine.... the damage was hard to tell because buffaloes had high defense, but for thf, the damage from status bolt hardly matters, and the effect still kicks in like before.


RNG/NIN was still doing great damage in my exp earlier today, at lvl65 when i was on my mnk. The RNG64 in my pt was still doing 700 slugshot, which would still be higher than any other jobs on an IT at that lvl.... TP-wise, he and i were on par when both of us weren't hasted, with him being ahead by a shot or two, since he didn't seem to miss much with his range. I know you can get 1000 before on flies, but i don't care if it costs gil to play, you choose it, just like how ninja's pick the job.

Deakka...ive already switch back to mnk sincie i hit rng 75 last night and got a 15k buffer im on ifrit so ur safe and my mnl is already 55 so s'all good lol. and yea nerf screws everyone but its just not a lazy job anymore which really isnt fair cause isnt blm kinda lazy and still does uber dmg...or is it just me?

[Pringo]

BLM is probably one of the laziest jobs, apart from Melees..hahhahaha

[Danos]

Sam sux overall blue....(shhh) but I can easily see most of the noob rng's going to mnk. Great DoT and WS dmg, don't have to think much and stil get great DoT. End game they have chi blast which is amazing dmg. Nuff said, if you want big dmg on both ends for xp and HNM, those noobs have their eye on mnk.

Hopefully they can count till 12

edit: To blue, sam's haven't gotten any new abilities. I was scared of getting a nerf but honestly, we've been using the same JA we were given since lvl30.

Pringo :
BLM is probably one of the laziest jobs, apart from Melees..hahhahaha

unless you atually do curestatus, regen off-tank, debuffs, and pay attention to hate control and MB properly, then i guess that statement is correct. Anyjob can play lazy if i wanted to... I even had my ranger on lazy cruise control...
