Been doing a lot of thinking/hoping/praying about the decrease in dmg (note: It does not bother me that dmg will be based on positioning now, I think this is actually kinda cool). As has been pointed out the quote stated that difference in dmg b/w r. atks on higher lvl enemies will be gimped some, but still not as great as normall melee's. I'm trying to remain optimisitic in the fact that I'm hoping it only causes a few points less dmg, (or is only noticable when fighting mobs ungodly higher than yourself..hope this doesnt have a huge affect on normal xp parties or hnm fights...kirin..)
I'm curious however that some ppl keep saying this isnt a nerf. I was under the belief that a nerf is something done that makes your job less effective. No matter how you look at it, making ranged attacks do less dmg on higher lvl mobs is making them less effective, granted we dont know how much less we'll be doing, but a little nerf is still a nerf. Whether its something piss and moan about all day is something different entirely. The other thing that bothers me is all the giddiness towards rng's doing less dmg. Even if its not meant to be, its stll coming across as fun at the expense of others. Some ppl take serious pride in how well they do in this game. I've been less disturbed by whats actually gonna happen to my job and more by other's telling me its somehow my fault.
I fully intend to keep on playing this job all the way to 75 (and if a lot of ppl quit it and ammo drops in prices, all the better) unless I determine it my own suckiness that has cause me to die in the last cpl promyv attempts.
I wasnt around for the tp nerf a year and a half ago, was there this much animosity towards drg's and laughing at them for being hurt by the change?
