Hey, DRG is good for something. It can spam hateless cures as DRG/Mage near infinitely. Stand outside range of your WAR or MNK tank and trigger healing breaths whenever you can. If you never make an action on the NM, it's even less hate than a WHM can do. If you do ever get hate, use Super Jump. Good thing to note for NMs that like to use lots of hate reset abilities.

I'm surprised DRG doesn't have a new tier of healing breath yet according to wiki. SE should throw DRG a bone, it's not like it would be game-breaking.

Well, in abyssea, with full on HP or Wyvern HP atmas and gear, you can probably get a full cure with AF2 helm and Emp neck.

Well he's right about 1 thing, smn is the most broken job because their summons can have -100% PDT in abyssea.

That got fixed in last update :/ still pretty powerful -PDT with ducal guard atma though

lol, the PUP part is just a joke :P

I'd put their solo play really high actually. They'd be top ranked since they can do a little bit of everything.

When I started it up, I wanted it to be comparable to the other jobs, but kind of threw that out the water once I got further on the chart.

WAR > MNK > NIN > Other jobs is what I had in mind.

We outparse any DD job dude I can do like 2k predatur claus out my *** LOL. Wats with this BLU argument being the best cuz they have that quad continuminum that does like 3k only when using that primordial ooze abyssea item but lol this was back @ 80 FYI



We get HASTEGA LMAO oh boy are you RDM/WHM/SCH mad cuz we get that at like 46 xD and you have to cast it to each pt member.

Out avatars take like halve damadge or sumthin so that makes them better than PLD roflmao they have to wear gear to even come close 2 that.

We can do either magic or pysical damadge whenever we want so that makes us like a SAM/BLM but not crap like a player SAM/BLM LOL RIGHT? Avatars get tier 4 nukes at like 60, I dont know what those ones in the merits menu do but im sure they dont beat blizzard IV with shivas favor up cuz shiva has more MAB then a BLM that way

You know shiva doesnt get the affect of her own favor right? In fact, avatars attack and magic attack decreases with favor active.

oh, I forgot a buffing category that would push RDM, WHM, SCH up quite a bit.

And an "instant versatile" category that would push SCH and BLU down a few points.

And lol @above. Can't believe people fell for that troll attempt >.>

If you got hate spamming dia or whatever on the mob... there is something seriously wrong going on. I hope that your tank ate a hate reset and you are just duoing lol.

Of course the only problem is that while you might be out of range you wyvern will most likely have to stay in range since HB range is ~10 from the target being cured. And the whole having to be under 50% hp thing... but if those aren't a problem in your fight then yeah super win

Also dmg jumps are a nice way to get tp and deal dmg without giving the mob any and get around spikes and such

I think RDM is the all-around best job with all things considered. Of course that doesn't mean it's any good at doing physical damage.

I think SCH outdamages BLM in single targets if a SCH is focusing on Dark Arts and nukes. Of course BLM gets a 10 on multi-target damage.

The "Instant Vesatility" would push SCH down though.

lol i thought you were kidding but you sound srs now. any WHM who won't cure someone based on a job is not a WHM.

The only time I wouldn't cure someone other than main tank is if I am literally spamming Cure V and VI non-stop waiting on recast timers in-between trying to keep the tank alive which doesn't happen much at all. If some reason there were a bunch of people feeding TP and all got hit by AoE I would focus on tank as priority but then get everyone else up as quickly as I could. If I need to choose between main tank dying and someone else I have no problem making that choice every time.. but to refuse to cure someone? I wouldn't want to play with a WHM like that.

really the only time I semi-ignore someone is when they are asking for -na's when I'm preoccupied with giving -na's to the tank first

Usually most my jobs only get cured if I am the tank OR I am not currently taking dmg.

God forbid I take hate as not the tank or stay in AOE range when low enough to get killed from it. I've gone a full minute with hate doing everything I could to keep myself alive with while getting ignored. Hell I stood around bound for a good 3 min day before yesterday (epic bind duration ftl) cause no one would erase me lol.

Which is why I've decided to make my blu a tank

Have to disagree. At the moment WHM is the best job by far - severely overpowered. After that, WAR MNK. Then other stuff.
