Matsui would look even better if he also adjusted the events that these two-hours are used for.
According to the original post that's actually on the cards as well. Can anyone confirm that?

Nah, the scrubs aren't doing these events anyway, so nothing changes for us.
There is very little reason for "scrubs" to be doing these events, to begin with.

If anything, i forsee Perfect Defense not blocking status effects to make new WHM JA relevant. Any othjer adjustment, short of lowering duration would make the ability worthless.
I see nothing bad about making something that makes you immune to almost everything worthless in a video game.

So are they trying to make things harder, easier, or just different?
Also, I see a lot of folks excited by this, and I guess I wonder what you're expecting current content to become and future content to consist of.

They are just changing a base part of the game (2 Hours) as a reaction to how the game pacing has changed over the years.
It's a good overall change. SE wasn't specifically targeting PD/Embrava nerfs, more so than evening all other SP abilities out so they are stronger.
I'm excited by things to come based on this. If Matsui was able to go ahead and change/update such an ancient portion of metagame, it speaks well of the vision he has for the future of XI.

Follows up with a lot of posts that events such as Crystal Dragon, Neo-Nyzul, Legion, and ADL be adjusted before Embrava and Perfect Defense are adjusted. They don't seem to mind nerfs to these 2hours as long as the events that pretty much demand use of them are adjusted to allow winning without them.
Error on my part, wasn't Slycer (though Slycer is the one who did the primary translation). The reason it's not in Matsui's post here is because it was in a subsequent post on the JP side I guess. Source here.
EDIT:
Actually,

He didn't mention it. Sorry, the "followed by posts" may me misconstrued. The posts following Matsui's were in reference to the JP players asking that events be adjusted if PD and Embrava were to be nerfed.
all you people qqing about the embrava and pd for things ithink your looking at this the wrong way
were getting our currcent 2hours shortened to 1hr by the sounds of it and adding the second one and making it so we can use both which makes alot of them more useful (example bards new 2hr) on and the fact we can merit it down to 30mins? alot of this sounds awesome to me
they are also adjusting/changing all the other 2hrs for all we know some of them could get buffed more than they alrdy are making up for the lack of embrava and pd
bring on slightly harder mode.

But with that in mind, the posts he's referring to on the JP side as of this post have 82 likes each.
And if Matsui is paying attention to likes in that topic like he said he did in his suggestion thread...

inb4 you can only merit three 2hrs down to 30 minutes

Okay, hopefully if the regain aspect of embrava is nerfed I'll get a bonus to my adloquium, maybe it'd be actually worth casting for once.
D: But but but
But I just got offered a spot in a NNI group if I can get my sch leveled up and geared, so I went from 53 yesterday to 75 today. I could have been on my beautiful lovely precious blu all day learning more spells because I need them all! (Shut it, you don't understand I NEED them ALL. ><)
If SE makes this frantic leveling-spree of that darned smelly short-skirt job all for nothing, I, I
I don't know what I'll do but it will involve sulking! ><

HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE adjustment, the ***don't even matter if it is 30 mins or 2hr recast. you won't be using it twice on 1 events, maybe Legion but that is about it. All I see is this is a *** excuse to nerf PD and Embrava. SE need to use a better smoke screen next time they want to nerf something.
I don't see it as a nerf. I'm SMN/SCH/DNC main and I think Perfect Defense was way too powerful. I am glad that they seek to make this game a challenge again.
A challenge. Excitement. The will to want to succeed after you lose. Remember that? Never say die attitude. Bring it on.
The only real complaint I ever had with the "new" FFXI is that some jobs simply don't have a place in timed events. NNI is one of those instances. Ever tried going without a at least one SCH? Yah? Didn't think so.
*Objectives for floor 52 complete. Runic portal activated*
*5 minutes remain*
Joy.

He didn't use any smoke, he was up front about it and told players now it's going to happen and not right before the release to sneak it in.
I'm tired of them hiding information from us and he is being very cooperative with the community so far since he was made producer.

Not trying to derail the OP!!
As much as my sch weeps for the Embrava nerf it's necessary. But my sam is joygasming at 30m Meikyo Shisui's. *insert Bison YES YES YES!*

Needs more graphs and charts.
I made graphs and charts and they finally fixed Coruscanti.

pretty sure they said all existing 2 hrs will receive adjustments so that they are all good. Also doubt they will let BST have a perma Familiar'd pet.

Visual aids make results.
Odin. Stil cruel. Still pretty much only useful in abyssea merit parties... and mostly on worms. Two worms. Maybe 3 tops.
to be honest i'm glad to see this update. It's true it doesn't matter if the 2hr is 2 hours or 30min because for 80% of content your only going to use it once. I like the challenge weaker/balanced 2hr will effect endgame content, people will have to change there method of doing events and think rather then Zerg.
