but drg SURPRISINGLY has me in a choke hold

i'm so pissed off also bc like. i really like the glam i have for viper, but it doesn't fit NIN imo so i'm like. I DON'T WANT TO GET RID OF YOU, BUT

glam is The Most Important part of this game fr

mood

i do not like playing AST much at all but the aesthetic is so good for glams i level it regardless

glam is the endgame

yeah i was. very excited for viper. but i dont get it at all

immediately went back to reaper which is just viper but better imo lmaooo

ill give it a try again later but its on the backburner for a while

i kind of get how to play it i think, i just hate it

i was gonna take it to the end of the storyline and then dump it

oh yeah viper is like. ninja and monk sneezed at the same time and the nose goo became a new class

(i'll play it, like i played both of those and dropped them as soon as i level maxed, but.)

THIS JUST IN: PICTO IS 2467535745 TIMES BETTER THAN VIPER

i love Viper.....

it's very fast and kind of brainless to play and i can see how it's not everyone's cup of tea

i'm sorry kyo

i can't get into it

its not like its too hard to understand (or it is and I'm dumber than i thought) but its just not for me

yeah tbh that's why i love whm, whm is brainless to me

i just can't get into viper's rotations

viper is weird because its tooltips look like fucking yugioh cards but its actual rotation is 1-2-3 push the button that lights up

yeah i think i finally clued into that around lvl 82

i can def see how it would be a nice brain shutoff melee tho

oh the OTHER problem with Viper (and this is something I sorely hope they adjust) is that its rotation doesn't actually fucking exist until, like, 90.

like until then you don't have the fun shit that gives the good brain chemicals

YEAH.....up until like lvl 70 its like 2 buttons

excrutiating

it's very bizarre how they distributed its skills considering Picto is playable at most levels

maybe viper just isn't fully cooked

they didn't let the steak rest

just served it fresh off the grill

that's basically it

once it hits 90 it's a blast but prior to that it's really kind of bleh. you have literally your AOE and your 1-2-3 at 80 and then you start to acquire your OGCDs as you level but it's at 90 you get the Good Shit

that's when you get the power of god and anime on your side

yeah the blue thing like BWAAAHHHHH SUPER SAIYAN

that was nice at least

i like the stance and look of viper at least

the swords changing is cool

i dont get it sob im extra stupid now

this is why my main melee is rpr

^^^ that

hilariously whm is harder for me to manage than ast and sch

(i love healing in general though i started doing it and got hooked on the feeling of POWER)

THE THING ABOUT VIPER

is that beyond the "tutorial" stage where it makes you do the specific finishers

the order doesn't matter

two single-hits and two aoes

i put them on opposite ends of my hotbar so i didn't get them confused and promptly forgot the names

early stage viper is so boring

> 12 days later don't judge me

why would i

also dw the rest of viper is also boring (to me)

i mean i'm not like, IN LOVE with the picto STORY, i don't care much, but the play style is fun to me

I've yet to pick picto up but it does look cute in play style

but yeah viper has such a dreary simple rotation? I am disappoint

it gets a little better at lvl 90, but i can't comment beyond that since i dropped it

at 90 you get more one-offs and other stuff outside of the usual rotations

aight

YEAH honestly i went through the story just because but i wasn't wild abt the play style

I mean it'll get levelled at some point or other b/c of how I play but yeah I vastly prefer reaper

i've been playin reaper on an alt, it's FUN

my fave and main 5ever now

the reaper?

ye

excellent taste its' so much fun

yessss

after like 7 or 8 years of playing nothing but summoner the game finally made me switch

reaper is so fun ngl

also the visual effects make me feel cool

i think rdm is still my fav dps but for melee dps, either drg or rpr is my fav

rpr is my fave close melee, dnc for ranged

tie between smn and blk for magic

i like turning into a spookity monster to kill u faster

i took up MCH again and i forgot how slam dunkingly BEEG DAMAJ it is

so many buttons

i mean i'm enjoying it but definitely cannot play that class sleepy

(i had more fun coming up with a glamour for it)

ive been learning machinist as i rotate between the DPS classes ive been behind on (switchin between dragoon/monk/mch) and its been fun

it IS

i'm strugging through mnk right now and letting myself also play mch as a little treat

dragoon has been bothering me bc where the heck are the AOEs!!!

MUCH LATER

AND THEY'RE CONES

/LINES

yeah

there's a couple jumps when you get higher up, and more line-oriented stuff like the ranged dps LB

I'm not really into the drg AOE selection

estinien you're a bigger loser than i thought

LMFAO

mch aoe they get like. EARLY ON is so bully tho

mean

brutal

i LOVe the mch aoe

IT'S REALLY GOOD, BOTH OF THEM (im lvl 60)

i'm not even counting the crossbow thingy

even the monk one is satisfying

BIG STOMP

BREAKDANCE

BIGGER STOMP

mnk rotation is irritating tho, they give you the middle of your AOE rotation like, SO MUCH LATER than the others

annoying

its great bc you can do they 5-point thing in 1 button in between fights so you just START with big stomoy

stompy

eh??? i thought the chakra AOE for monk was another line thing

im just like. around level 40 now for all of them? so i can do the next job quest

i mean it is but

big stompy comes real soon after

IDK IVE BEEN AT THE COTTAGE i havent played in days

leave me be

LMSFAO OK

i will just assume i don't know how to play mnk well which like, legit

i don't

part of why i don't like it

i dont actually know if i have an aoe for chakra tbh that probably comes later

big stompy is good aoe tho

you know what tho i will say one think about reaper, and i'm only on lvl 73 so i don't know if this changes, but

i do not like the ranged atk for reaper

i can only use it right away if i teleport? and teleport is on cooldown??? and then otherwise i gotta CAST IT????

because it's not instant?

yeah

i guess it's to help balance the class because tbh the dmg it does is practically unfair, but

that hasn't changed circa 82

still

yeah honestly reaper is not meant to be ranged at ALL

its why you have a get in-get-out button

it begs to be greeded....

and why pretty much everything is so FAST

greeded and yeeted. i cant tell you the number of times ive panic-ported off the map
