I am genuinely still filled with hatred for new Black Mage, and anyone who enjoys it.
This was the only class in the game that I actually enjoyed, and all of it's unique gameplay was gutted because single digit fucking retards couldn't be bothered to either fail a few times so they could practice, or go back to a different class that they actually do enjoy.
I unsubbed about eight months ago, but I can't let go of this game. I get the urge to go back all the time until I remember that the game I once loved was taken out back and had an ice pick jammed through it's fucking eye socket.
The fact that all of the already existing easy mode classes weren't enough, and you had to complain enough to get one of three actually hard classes removed shows more entitlement than anything anyone has claimed about me.

I don't really like Bard. I leveled it, and learned the level 100 opener, and tried a few high end fights to get the rotation down. It didn't really click for me, and felt like too much weaving. I then proceeded to not go on the forums asking for it's oGCDs to get culled, and for song timers to be automatic. I just went back to Machinist, and kept enjoying that.

6.0 Black Mage was a 10/10, and the closest second was Red Mage at a 6/10.
7.0 BLM was maybe a 7/10. 7.1 was an 8, and 7.2 cratered that into being a 3.
That should put things into perspective on how much I was able to take. I still chose to play Black Mage even if Picto or Red Mage were better choices for week 1 savage, just because it was still fun to me.
