Please suggest rules here. Add what type of cap you think the rules would be best for at the top of your post. Ie: (60 cap) (Uncapped) ect, ect, ect.


Currently thinking of 3mage/3melee to keep variety.

BRD count as Mage.

COR thinking of counting as Melee. But I am open to negotiation on this.:nyam:

Gogo Discuss. \o/
 
I think COR should be counted as a melee as well, at 60 they can acess better guns and ammo so they'd be more like a ranged attacker rather than a support. I'm thinking maybe 30 minutes for each match? That way we can get a lot in without having to waste as many ballista points.
Cap: 60
Match Length: 30 min
Items: yes
subjobs: ? (that one doesn't really matter to me)

Remove subjobs!!
 
I like the idea of no subs. It makes people play their job how it is meant to be played.
 
Well, Smn and Brd can't heal because of /whm. Drk most likely will use a 2handed weapon because they can't dual weild, any smart War will do the same, although for warrior I suppose you could go axe/shield. I can't think of any other job right now that really relys on their subs ability's in PvP besides these.

Hmm. This is true. lol But wouldn't that put some of the other jobs a slight advantage?

Not if everyone learns how to use their job effectivly without subs in PvP
 
Well, Bard is self-explanatory, and really doesn't need a sub. So I guess I'd be fine with the no sub thing for my job.
 
Its not that it would gimp other jobs so much as i think it would put jobs that dont rely at all on thier sub for PvP at a huge advantage. Nin and Mnk are really the only ones that come to mind, but a mnk with no sj could still kill most jobs with sj imo >.>
 
Having no subs will show a teams true skill, you may be surprised how fun and challenging it can be in a 60 cap no sub match.

Also i think there shouldnt be a 3mage/3melee rule, but just a no more than 1 type of job rule. Copy ballista royale rules for 60 cap, lets make this an easy discussion :|
 
no subs..... hmm a BRD WHM DRK would win they do not need subs do job
BRD tanks basicly as they get the most -% damage in the game (NA V JP royal balitsa final watch it how great that brd was)
WHM can cure brd IF ever goes below 50% and DRK can kick ass
 
nin vs. any 2 handed wapon person is a slaughter without the support of AOEs.

blm without a subjob can't do shit against a good mele who runs up and one hits them with a ws or continues interupting spells untill they die. Stoneskin/blink is really really important. Even with stoneskin/blink most blms are pretty easy to kill. I'm sure blm isn't the only job that has major issues without a subjob.

I like subjobs they allow for more strategies and combos with jobs

Let people make their teams of whatever jobs they want, each job has its own strengths and weaknesses, let people figure out what they want for their teams.
 
All blm's have to do is stun -> bind -> nuke, my ls mates do this all the time. And if you don't have any items to take status effects off it's pretty much over for you there.

why 3mage/3melee
i feel the team can have any sort of configuration on the party but
only can't have 2+ of a same job

Yeah This is true, it would open up more strategies for people to use.

Yeah you just get a crap load of damage taken -% gear on. Plus you can play a VIT+ and DEF+ song. I'm not sure if you "tank" but most people will think you're weak so they'll go to attack you only to find they're not hitting for what they think they should be hitting for.
