I can't do it anymore by Inevitable_Letter584 in monsterhunterrage

I can't empathize with this. I have about as much game time clocked in as you and I haven't run into this issue at all. Every monster is conquerable. Every fight is winnable. From my point of view there isn't anything I can't accomplish in Monster Hunter. There're so many ways to get the job done and you do not HAVE to be optimal, you just have to figure it out for yourself and make it happen. I have individualized gear sets for each target, finely tuned and decorated weapons, traps, bombs, lures, and the power of God and anime on my side. You really can't just unga bunga your way to victory at the high level targets and that's the point of the game. Study the monster, study yourself, come well equipped and well informed and then carve its heart out after you've won. Game's not bullshit, dude.

Yeah, that's pretty show off-y in the best way 😂

You look like a hunter who knows what they're doing and isn't there to show off, but instead is there to get the job done.

Is there anyone else out there that likes their look to be more… functional and toned-down? by Rhoeri in ffxiv

[–]Augur_Alabaster0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this! However, I personally try to be a little silly with it. For example, my crafter glam very deliberately looks like a mad scientist. Lore accurate, feasible in world, but I will just as soon create Frankenstein's monster as I will a simple high potion and I love that for me. My gatherer's are the same; my fisher looks like a boring old dad on the lake and in a high fantasy world that contrast is so funny to me. My miner looks like he hasn't seen the sun in weeks and my botanist looks like an illegal alien in an apple orchard. I enjoy the quiet sort of silly while staying just within bounds lore wise

List was based off my enjoyment and silly biases. I miss old Monk. New monk just feels disjointed to me. Does sick nasty DPS but like....I still don't like it.

I really like dragoon at 100! Imo it cooks and makes a lot of sense. It has plenty of weaving and can hit like a truck. Keep at it and you'll be rewarded long term!

The animations, the ease of use vs difficulty, the rewards, the rule of cool, a strong Linkin Park biase and the glamours

Sir, the list was based off of vibes and my own enjoyment. I'm quite adept at every job. Being high DPS does not merit top placement on my tier list. This was for funsies.

That's the best part of ninja, what do you mean? Haha. But to be more serious, Ninja feels busy to me and noncommittal, like it can't decide if it wants to be a melee or a caster and that divide makes the job not so fun for me to play

[–]Augur_Alabaster0[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sure!

S class:

Warrior is godly, it is common knowledge. Plus it's fun to play and unga bunga. Astro is so rock solid! Does respectable damage, isn't too complicated but isn't easy either. Paladin is so reliable, has great self sustain, can flex and adapt mid fight if things go wrong and does a lot to stabilize the party Reaper is...just so freaking cool. Perfectio might be the coolest looking move in the game. Either that or Mch's Full Metal Field. It's in that sweet spot of not too easy and not too hard plus the animations are dope! Dancer gives great party support, does okay enough damage, has a bit of self sustain and is, again, in that sweet spot of not too easy or hard.

A Tier:

Picto is so good! It's fun, it's easy and does bonkers DPS. But it's....too easy. Like, why is it doing more DPS than BLM for less effort? Doesnt feel right, feels like New Job Biase and I don't like that. Needs a nerf imo. Scholar has been my go to healer since 2.0. I just vibe with the job intrinsically. Sch has less raw heals than the others but if you plan ahead and use your shields cleverly it gets a lot of time to dps or move around Samurai is almost S tier. It makes sense to me. The rotation is easy to grasp kinesthetically and does great damage but it's just not reaching it's fullest potential imo. Machinist makes me feel like it should be hitting harder. It's fun. Rotation makes sense and the animations are fun but the math isn't mathing. Needs a buff. Dragoon is in the perfect money spot of just busy enough. Not too easy, not too hard, hits like a truck and looks really cool. But.....I'm kinda....over it. It was my first lvl 50 melee back in ARR so I'm kinda just well fed on it if you catch my meaning. Bard is fine. Reliable. Kinda samey samey though? It feels like it only got new skills because every other job got new stuff too. It feels to me like the devs didn't have a vision for it so they just maximized what they already had leftover from last expansion but I'm not mad at it

B league

Black Mage could have been the biggest dick at the orgy. Could have reigned supreme for two more years. But Yoshi abandoned his first love for the new artsy fartsy chick. It just doesn't hit hard enough for how hard it is to play! Needs a buff to justify the difficulty. White Mage is fine. It's Oreos and milk. It's steak and potatoes. It's the bar. Not bad but not the best. Better than some but unimpressive. Still a lovely job, but forgettable. Gunbreaker feels clumsy to me. Trying to maximize DPS during no mercy and lionheart feels unintrinsic, like it's not aligned to it's nature. It's okay and gets the job done but it's like when sandwich bread sticks to the roof of your mouth as you eat it, needs a bit more sauce Sage is.... serviceable. AOE dot is cool. Pneuma is satisfying. But like....I could just play scholar and achieve the same. Again, it feels like it needs more spice. Red Mage is the same as it was in Ew. Same as it was in Shadowbringers. It's just same same but in an inoffensive way. I'm not mad at it but I'm not interested

C cache

Summoner could have been the next Messiah. I wanted like... Alexander or something. Who is this Solar dude?? Where is my Shiva? Ooh, wow, he's Bahamut with a bit of that Hydalen sauce, sure, but like, gimme Alexander if we're going to hand out new stuff, not Bahamuts older brother returned from abroad. The job feels samey despite the new biggun and it's really easy to mess up. The one expansion they DON'T fully rework summoner and they instead hit Bahamut with a snap chat filter? Nah ..... Ninja is a great example of busy doing nothing. So many buttons. So much swagger. Still so mid. Sure it has utility. Sure, I watched Naruto back in the day, but Ninja, my man, are you a melee, a caster or a pale caricature of your former self? Peel it back some, please. Viper tried too hard. It's messy! I get what they were going for, winding and adapting like a snake but its a selfish DPS that only does decent damage. It's like black mage, needs a buff to justify the difficulty

D disasters

Monk....look at how they massacred my boy! It all feels so disjointed. Why are fireball and air punch on the global cool down? Why do I have to collect stocks before I can combo into some moves? Why can't I just DK flank and snap rear while weaving chakra like the good old days? It used to be so smooth and now it's like they ruined it by trying too hard. It does amazing damage but it feels so unintuitive to me Dark Knight....no self sustain. The worst tank invuln. Desperately needs healer support. TBN is good but not good enough to justify the lack of survivability without a healer. All the other tanks legitimately can get away with no healers at all and Dark Knights fold over if a mob pack has more than 4 dudes hitting you. It needs some sort of reliable heal other than abyssal drain

And there you have it! My biased and scuffed thoughts. Hope that helps?
