that ***takes 1 of our smns 25-35 seconds to down.

SMN doesn't need a nerf because some people suck?

Logic.

Im always on brd for you ;). To clarify for everyone: that wasnt our party. It was a random smn stealing our popspot and then continue to horribly wipe over and over to the point where ruau was like... imma record this!

Never understood why SMNs stay next to the target for conduits, unless you used perfect defense prior pop, just stay 20" away and spam it, yakshi has breakga and that can suck balls if it decides to do it the moment you press AC macro and hits you lol.

Moral of the story: Because some people can AC burn things doesnt mean everyone can do it, its like when you see Ejiin videos and he does 90k resolutions, doesnt mean everyone (but primex) can do it.

I mean, you're looking at a single SMN doing i145 content with presumably only 1 GEO for buffs and a buyer. Even the fact he can get it to 1% duo is very strong encouragement for a nerf. There was recently discussion on if it was possible to 3man reis T3s, and here you have someone being made fun of for 'only' getting it to 1% duo.

In retrospect, the names do look a bit china like blaze pointed out as well. So not only duoing a T3, but with china quality players.

I've never unlocked smn.
I don't know the first thing about smn. But I'm ready to get on the bandwagon.

Question: How quickly can I 99/gear/JP the job up to an acceptable content level? Talking T4s. Is there anything particularly critical I would need to be serviceable? I'm ready to hop on the bandwagon.

Also, I'm galka.

How quickly can you 99 and JP it up? That depends on how many BLM and BLUs you know that owe you favors.
How quickly can you gear? How much gil do you have? How many skirmish stones for Helios are on AH?
What do you need to know to use the job? Read the guide on this site.

That's luck more then anything else. Need to roll a QA on Reso, need to roll a positive pDiff bonus on all eight hits to hit a 5.0 ratio average, then need to have 40~50% in CHD which isn't too hard to get but gets in the way of the QA, and need to land all eight of those hits at 33.7% chance of that not happening. Or the monster has a +damage phase your in.

Ultimately I think BLU got the slight balancing it needed via gear and buff updates (BRD being chief among those). Nice tidy way to bump power of everyone other then BLU without directly nerfing BLU.

It's worth mentioning that the reason he was recorded was that I was actually going to record another DRK video but since he jacked our pop-site and popped Yakshi as I was still rolling Fraps I just decided to use the footage I got anyway.

It's nothing personal, well too personal, and I hope that people didn't get the impression I was being spiteful for the sake of it. I've seen all manner of SMN mess up in very similar situations (T1/T2 mostly), he was just unfortunate I happened to be recording.

Just make it castable on pt... but make potency based on enhancing skill of person with buff at time of swing

As a RDM, I'd love to be able to Accession-Temper.

That you weren't on DRG in that video.

You were the last hope DRGs have, and you had to go loldrk?

Shame on you! Shame on your family! Shame on your country!

And most importantly, shame on Lina!

Would upload more DRG videos but it's hard to justify bringing it to Omen since it's +3 set is meh with a side of blah.

If you thought loldrk was upsetting you're going to have a fit when you see what gets uploaded in a few days...
