I can’t believe I have to grind CC for glamour again. I would pay money to skip this awful combat where you can’t even react to anything because it was specifically not coded for you to.

    Nah, it’s easy enough now that they’ve reworked it all for CC, IMO.

    But, importantly, it’s not like PvP in a “serious PvP game”. It’s a very lightweight and lighthearted mode that’s available as a brief break from things in an otherwise PvE centric MMORPG.

    Once I saw it as that, it “clicked”. It made sense. It’s fun, and trying to predict when someone will use what (remember each job only has a handful of skills!) is a nest game in itself.

    (edit)
    Oh also, if it’s just about track rewards, do the daily Frontline (Paladin and White Mage are the jobs to stay alive more easily!) And that’ll give you more than enough to get all rewards before the track ends. just that one round each day.

      I was ready to be done with Frontlines a long time ago since I maxed all job experience and got the grand company mount… But now I guess I’ll do that too.

      Don’t even want to comment on Frontlines gameplay though. Bleugh.

      If it’s not a serious mode, then I wish it wasn’t balanced separately. I started checking it out recently and I’m not loving trying to relearn my job while also trying to figure out what the hell is going on with 70 people on the screen in Frontline.
