Needed changes for Ballista?
With Square- Enix obviously showing signs of willingly fixing problems with Ballista, what changes would you like to see be made to Ballista?
I recently tried Ballista since the new rules/exp revamp and it was loads more fun than when I had tried it at its release. I feel they've done a pretty good job at keeping things balanced and the play style really encourages teamwork which really makes it more fun. All in all i've actually become a Ballista addict and it's one of my favorite things to do in game now.
I use to think it was lame that you couldn't change equipment, basically screwing over all end game jobs as many have macro changes for many of their actions. But then came to realize hey, if everyone is penalized for the change then it is indeed fair and also if you could change equipment non-stop no one could ever target you. So that complaint I had wasn't very valid.
Only real issue I would like to see be addressed would be targeting. I wish you could hit F8 and target the nearest opponent. While /ta <stnpc> is nice, being able to hit F8 would make things loads easier.
Some cool things I would like to see but not really needed would be like... declare a duel. Too many times I see people roll up on others and someone starts shouting "THIS WAS 1 V 1 LEAVE PLZ GOD". I think it would be cool if you could send a duel invite to someone, if they accept then it makes it so you and your opponent cannot be acted upon until the duel was over. Course this isn't what SE wants most likely since they want it to be a team effort and the main focus to be score petras. But if people are going to do 1 v 1 during matches, may as well help make it more proffesional i guess.
Anyway enough ranting, leme know what you think SE could realistically add to make Ballista that much better.
