Honestly I'm slightly excited about pvp changes, they sound pretty interesting. Not having the usual 2 full bars+half a bar of hotkeys then adding 6more abilities and actually having to use the shit keybind abilities cause root/knockback/stun/whatever was good in pvp is really nice. Like seriously the main reason I didn't even want to bother was the massive ability bloat in pvp, pve you could make it work by cutting useless shit/putting on a weird keybinds but pvp you needed way too many keybinds. New system is simpler, but they keep the various skills.
I also like that they did the whole combo on one button type of thing. Hopefully once it's tested and tried, they'll add it as a feature for pve too, it'd be nice to make like one button for each combo chain to reduce keybinding space some more.
I'll actually be pvping for a bit once I'm done leveling and shit. Need to get those Garo shit too, apparently it's still on and is supposed to stay available until after SB release they said before so that's nice.

Standard nerfs to leves/collectibles 60 and below engaged; glad I spent 0 time trying to pre-game in light of how it changed with HW. The nerf to moogle quests was also expected!
Full notes are a lot, with a lot of good stuff in there. Can't wait to get in game~

Shit they locked cactuar so you can't create new characters. Have a few friends wanting to play so they're gonna have to start on a very low pop server. Any of you guys playing in the preferred severs? Plus they are giving nice incentives to play on one.

GMG had a sale so decided to pick up Stormblood, and play it casually between batphone raids. Havent played since the base game, had all jobs to 50 at the time. No clue which to take 50+ first, probably a healer for queue times? Any recommendation on the "better" healer? Which DPS classes are good these days?

PvP overall seems a lot more fun. I did a couple frontlines on my monk and while the lag is fucking unbearable as a melee until they open server transfers, it was still pretty fun. Has few abilities but flows nicely, also the abilities are different enough from the pve stuff that it feels kinda new(although obviously I'd kill to have the Stance change from PvP in PvE, shit just gives you a GL stack right away when you use it lol). And yeah the rewards are pretty good. Not amazing, like you can get more chaining potd with geared people, but it's something else to do if you want and is actually pretty worth it compared to say, dungeons. Actually probably a lot better than dungeons, although haven't seen the new dungeons xp yet cause of the stupid MSQ shit stuff. They shouldn't have put a MSQ instance right at the start of the MSQ.
