And I will continue to never be able to take Lalafell tanks seriously.

50% RAID-WIDE DAMAGE REDUCTION WAHT THEFUCK

15% you mean?

 

[SliceSabre]

I fucking called it! I fucking called PLD getting and attack like this!!!

 

[ubercheez]

That passage of arms skill looks slick as fuck.

 

[Stone Ocean]

15% you mean?

I could have sworn she said 50

 

[Soroc]

PLD shield spell looks freaking awesome

 

[BLCKATK]

I'M READY!

 

[Caim]

I could have sworn she said 50

Grants the paladin 100% block and those behind the paladin take 15% less damage.

 

[SliceSabre]

Paladin, ultimate protectors.

 

[Thorgal]

all players standing behind Paladin with wings will take 15% less damage .

Paladin blocking rate during the animation will be 100%.

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

Grants the paladin 100% block and those behind the paladin take 15% less damage.

PLD still OP

 

[Qvoth]

it's 15%, but 15% damage reduction for the whole party is HUGE

 

[Frumix]

Now if only there was something in the game to protect against.

 

[Robobandit]

it's 15%, but 15% damage reduction for the whole party is HUGE

PLD can't move while using it, though.. and a 2 minute cooldown. seems really useful, but not too OP.

[ubercheez]

"Here's this one super-awesome skill that paladins have. Okay, we're done talking about paladins."

 

[Stone Ocean]

"We got rid of Bards' cast times because of casual players"

Thank you casual players

 

[SynthFetish]

Thank you casual players

You're welcome!

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

From what we've seen neither of the other two tanks gets something as useful.

 

[VanillaCakeIsBurning]

He cast Divine Veil but it didn't automatically put the shield up. So I guess you still need to be healed in order for it to work. :/

 

[iammeiam]

New PLD skill seems in keeping with how they handle PLD in general. Sounds nice, super situational , I don't think they fixed PLD.

no time, had to completely reboot MCH

PARRY IS GONE

 

[Stone Ocean]

Parry replaced by Tenacity

DAMAGE DEALT UP DAMAGE RECIEVED DOWN YOOO

 

[Baleoce]

Bard and Machinist no longer has a cast time. Aww Yiss.

 

[Dougieflesh]

Praise the sun that parry got removed.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Parry still exists, just not in gear

 

[ubercheez]

Parry still exists as a mechanic, just won't be a gear attribute.

 

[Omnicent]

Parry replaced by Tenacity

DAMAGE DEALT UP DAMAGE RECIEVED DOWN YOOO

That sounds delicious

I don't understand that comment.

I don't understand that comment.

3.4 tier was pretty meh on incoming raid damage with exception of phase 6 of A12S which this WOULD actually help against if you didn't want your MT in front of the boss at that time.

How many superattacks in phase changes are in current content, even? For me sounds like every savage run will have a PLD there.

 

[Stone Ocean]

ACCURACY DEAD YESSSSSSSSSSS

 

[Qvoth]

WTF ACCURACY IS GONE AS WELL

 

[theSlacker]

God damn shouldn't have watched videos.

 

[UtterlyPerplexed]

Thank fuck. We're free, my DPS-loving healer brethren.

 

[Baleoce]

Bye Accuracy!

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

What is even happening. Everything is getting. Nuked.

 

[Stone Ocean]

100% front hit rate if the monster is the same level as you

 

[Aeriscloud]

Byeccuracy

 

[Yam's]

They're really following into WoW's footsteps, which is a good thing. Accuracy has never been a fun stat to take care of.

 

[Xion_Stellar]

"We got rid of Bards' cast times because of casual players"

I would like to think that the fact that Machinist got their cast time removed too seemingly proves my theory/hunch for Wanderer's Minuet. Machinist with a cast time wasn't the issue because it felt like the Job was built around taking into account the casting time.

The issue is that adding cast time for Bards has always felt bad/incomplete so my theory was that the only reason Bards got slapped with Wanderer's Minuet is because they didn't think that it was fair for Bards to be able to move and shoot at the same time while Machinist aren't able to do so.

 

[Qvoth]

SELL ACCURACY MATERIAS NOW

I see it more usefull for the Offtank and phase swaps with huge raid damage incoming.

 

[Stone Ocean]

Direct Hit replacing accuracy in gear

 

[iammeiam]

How many superattacks in phase changes are in current content, even? For me sounds like every savage run will have a PLD there.

If they didn't fix the actual problems with the PLD job, a 150s CD 15% damage reduction isn't going to do anything. WAR has Path, DRK has Delirium, PLD has a long cooldown


PLD already had Divine Veil. no1curr

 

[studyguy]

PLD skills still seem like it's skewing heavily to MT. "Utility" meaning if you actually need damage reduction vs straight DPS, but idk we'll see.

 

[Qvoth]

ok direct hit is like a weaker crit that's more stable, at least that's how i'm taking it

 

[Stone Ocean]

Direct Hit is a mini crit, happens more often but does less damage, can happen at the same time as crits

 

[studyguy]

minicrits? we TF2 now
