So I found this on a random KI post and it looks really great for some jobs

[Job Adjustment]
We would like to adjust certain jobs in the upcoming update in November. we do not wish to weaken the job, but we are trying to balance jobs compared to other ones.

Red Mage
We want to adjust the spell, Gravity in the next update, we have no intentions weakening the spell, however we have noticed Gravity is a powerful spell. Graity recast time is currently 60 seconds, in the future we will adjust it's recasting timer to 180 seconds. There will also be faster resistance build by monsters that rate "Impossible to Gauge" in the future.

Black Mage
Black Mage is a powerful job with powerful spells, we have no intentions weakening spells or weakening the job, however we plan on adjusting resistance on spells that deal damage, that are casted repeatly on monsters that rate Too Weak, Easy Prey, Decent Challenge, Even Match, Tough, Very Tough, Incredibly Tough. Also monsters that rate "Impossible to Gauge" will build faster resistance to the Black Magic spell, Bind.

Ninja
Ninja is a powerful job, in the upcoming update we plan on adjusting the spell, Utsusemi. From now on the spell "Utsusemi: Ichi" will give 5 shadows instead of 3 and the spell "Utsusemi: Ni" will give 6 shadows instead of 4.

Dual Wield and Martial Arts
There are jobs that dual wield one-handed weapons, warriors, ninjas. In next update we are going to adjust the Haste cap of jobs that use martial arts and dual wield. The haste cap that was able to abtain with gear is currently 25%. In the future we are going to reduct this to 15%. This counts for all jobs that use dual wield and martial arts.

Samurai
We have noticed that Samurai is a very powerful job, in next update we are going to adjust Samurai.
Meditate, is a useful and strong job ability allower sam to generate fast TP. In the future we are going to reduce Samurai's limit allowing them to not get more then 60 TP per time using this job ability. Also we would like to adjust the weapon "Soboro Sukehiro" the damage formula that is calculated isn't correct compared to higher base damage great katanas. We are going to change the base damage of Soboro Sukehiro from 40 to 25.
 
This sounds like a load of horsecrap. Considering they just fed samurai a bunch of nifty upgrades over the year, I'd seriously doubt they'd nerf down Meditate.
Edit: Clicked the link. They gave the site an official-ish look, but they didn't try to hide the link?
 
Wow, they got you hook line and sinker. Did you even notice the address of the link?

easily deceived or cheated.

Ex. Grodo is a gullible motherfucker.
 
it happens D= what happens when u work in a mine all day
 
lol nice xD
 
They didn't even write like SquareEnix do... lol

Note for next time: reduce the usage of We, don't use notice. As a matter of fact, don't try to explain why you do something, just say you do. Wow, those guys did a very poor job, lol. SE would have done it more like this:
  • The recast time of the spell "Gravity" has been increased.
  • Resistance built from repeated usage of Elemental spells have been adjusted.
  • The number of shadows granted by the Ninjutsu spell "Utsusemi" have been adjusted.
  • The total amount of Haste which can be attained from gear have been adjusted.
  • The effect of the Samurai ability "Meditate" has been adjusted.
SE never, ever, explains why they do stuff. And then almost never state clearly what it is they change.
 
Wtf, nerfing blm and rdm? This isn't factual though, is it? Is it just something someone thought of in their own opinion? And why would they say Ninja is a powerful job like they did with rdm and blm meanwhile they're giving them more shadows to Utsusemi?
 
i was lulin my pants off at the NIN update haha. I took that seriously for all of 10 seconds of reading.
 
I had to LOL at the Utsusemi:Ichi and NI shadows increase. But, messing with the RDMs Gravity? D=

ps - The creator of this almost used the same writing style SE uses.
 
I sorta knew it was a Hoax as soon as the blm updates were there, and knew it was fake as soon as they wanted to boost the number of shadows.
 
they should have saved the NIN "update" for last. it will fool people longer.

Actually, I'd have done something like this:

  • The number of shadows granted by the Ninjutsu spell "Utsusemi" have been reduced by one. In addition, the level requirement of the spell "Utsusemi: Ni" have been raised to 40.
  • The cumulative effect of "Haste" has been decreased.
  • The elemental resistance of various enemies by repeated use of Elemental spells has been adjusted.
  • The Recast time of the Samurai ability "Meditate" has been increased from 180 seconds to 210 seconds. In addition, the amount of TP given now varies by the Samurai's level.
  • Total combined Merit Points in the category "Attributes" has been reduced from 5 to 3. To reflect this change, all Merit Points spent in "Attributes" has been reset to 0.
 
glad that's fake...I freaked out when i saw the fucking intended recast on gravity

fuck that
 
OMG, are you serious? I was planning to come back. If this is true, I ain't coming back!
 
When I saw the "update" for nin I laughed my ass off. If it were true, only 2 words would be needed. "Goodbye Paladin". 5 from ichi? hell, with that you almost wouldnt even need Ni. And with Ni even a war could main tank and not break a sweat.

Also lol at the wording for Blm and making the Soboro do 25 damage. It would never happen.

Thanks for the laugh^^
 
At first I thought "Avesta is screwed" then I read the Nin part and couldn't stop laughing.
 
I sincerely hope that anyone who claims English as a first language was not fooled beyond the first sentence. The writing in that thing is on a truly primitive level -- the sort of thing I'd give a "C" to were it to appear in a seventh-grade essay. The fact that even one or two genuinely seemed to think that high-end professionals in Square's marketing department would let grammatical garbage like that see the light of day (we're no longer in the SNES era of "Spoony Bard," after all) ... well, I weep for the future.

Even if it were dressed up by a more ... literate ... person to sound legitimate, the claims in it are ludicrous enough to give the lie away. Five shadows from Utsusemi: Ichi? Friggin' bards would be subbing ninja. Oh, wait ...

Yes, something like that would have been MUCH better, lol.

Though realistically even SE wouldn't completely wipe a merit category, just reduce it down to 3 without returning any of the spent merits.
