SMN is just very boring, has tacked on Necromancer themed skills from 2.0, and they are doubling down on a Triple Bahamut rotation. And the additional effects of Solar Bahamut are underwhelming and not enough to justify it. SMN is fine but not interesting to play. BLM just got nuked by making Umbral Ice tedious and potentially unable to reliably regen MP until Lvl 76, removed transpose/Paradox weaving, removed Sharpcast, removed Thunderprocs, and limits you to Fire 4 spam. Feels very BAD. Very 2.0 BLM style of play. Just UGH. And RDM is outperformed by all 3. Pictomancer has tons of nuance and engaging playstyles to work with so it's the clear winner here.

So those 3 being in the white combo make perfect sense. It's a substractive color palette because each color you throw onto the mix removes color until you get white The rest are based on an additive color palette which you can see in real life pigments and materials. In this palette, the primary colors are Cyan, Yellow and Magenta. When combined they make black. So them being in the black combo makes perfect sense. It's called additive because it gets darker with each color added until you get black.

Lore wise it’s implied that pictomancy isn’t based in either white magic or black magic, you can assume that pictomancer’s spells actually have nothing to do with the white or black magic spells we see on white or black mage, and are moreso mimicking their appearances using, well, paint

Was doing some number crunching and realized the tooltip and potency for Blizzard II in Cyan is never shown. We get Stone II in Yellow twice instead. I'm assuming it's 160 potency to follow the formula? Also, the current aetherhue AoE potencies are... a gain on 5 or more enemies? 4 enemies for the third cast in the combo. I suspect we'll be getting potency changes there specifically.

Maybe I'm biased since I play DNC a lot, but this seems a lot like how DNC functions in many ways. The ability to go from ST to AoE without breaking combos, the way the big hitter spells work (line AoEs), the big damage AoE/Heal (granted DNC has that broken out into two different moves). I'm only half through the video and that's my impression so far.

Oooooo this looks exciting! I do have a couple questions, if you have the time. 1) did painting motifs in combat feel satisfying to you? One of my biggest concerns with the jobs was that long cast times with no appreciable immediate effect would feel kinda bad 2) this seems to me like a very adaptive job, with its minute to minute rotation changing a lot around specific mechanics to maintain uptime. Do you agree? Why or why not? Thank you so much for the video and the effort you put in!

It doesn't seem like the motif's and the paint bars flow into each other that well from the explanation. Is this the case? If so, does that mean it's effectively two disparate sets of rotation we are juggling with no real interaction between them? (So using gague to build black while waiting for motif cooldown.)

Looking forward to trying out picto, from a casual POV, this jobs defo gonna take some getting used to in terms of rotation. But that's not a bad thing lol.

Can you swiftcast that really long ability?

obviously you only had one gear set to work with, but do you think pictomancer will do well with spell speed or will it join smn and rdm in totally dodging it?

It's a bit unclear: For Tempura Coat, if it breaks, the cd is reduced by 60 seconds. If Tempura Grasse breaks, the Tempura Coat cd is reduced by 30 seconds. My question is, are these exclusive cooldown reductions? If you Coat and then Grasse and both shields break, do you get a 90 second reduction or a 30 second reduction? Does Grasse overwrite Coat's shield?

I'm really looking forward to playing Picto, but my one gripe with it is that the shield abilities have that weird "combo" attached to it. I'm not saying that its bad or its gonna be hard to pull off, but I feel like the shield abilities should just be two separate buttons rather than just one button with an odd sounding combo Either way, even if you mess up the timing with the shield, its nice to see it'll still provide a small bonus of sorts

@agitpolat1061

14 күн бұрын

Completely blind guess on my part, but I'm assuming the AoE Shield will overwrite the Self-only one, so them being two Buttons might be to let you decide if you want a bigger, selfish Shield (but more CD reduction if it breaks), or a smaller Partywide Shield that's easier to pop (ie Raidwides) with reduced reduction.

It looks super fun

So I believe that the hammer combo has a higher potency value than the basic white aether pallet spells and definitely is stronger than the basic aoe combo so it seems like it will definitely see play in most content during add phases

I find it increasingly hilarious seeing this sentiment from pretty much everyone, myself included, being echoed everywhere I look. Almost makes me feel bad for SMN.

I hope those potencies aren’t final on the AoE combo. They’re so low compared to the ST combo that they’re not a gain until roughly 4-5 targets, which is REALLY bad. If it goes live with those potencies, you’re gonna see a lot of newbie PICs doing their AoE combo on 3 target just out of habit, but doing a fraction of the damage they COULD be doing by doing ST instead. REALLY needs a balance pass before launching.

@tribblesfoxfolk

Oh it’s even weirder than I thought, now that I paused the video and compared the tooltips side by side. ST1: 400 AoE1: 80* (neutral on 5, gain on 6+) ST2: 440 AoE2: 100* (loss on 4, gain on 5) ST3: 480 AoE3: 120* (neutral on 4, gain on 5) Total ST: 1320 Total AoE: 320* (loss on 4, gain on 5) So your entire AoE combo, when factored together; is a LOSS on 4 targets, only becoming a true gain starting at 5 targets. This is REALLY BAD and basically just means you’re not going to cast your AoE combo at all unless your group is doing wall-to-wall pulls. Now, this isn’t factoring for the Creature and Weapon combos, which are substantial gains in AoE scenarios (Weapon especially pops off), but that makes AoE kind of janky for PIC: you’re gonna run yourself out of muses doing your Creature/Weapon combos, then have to stand there and paint them again instead of attacking the pack. I hope they push the potencies of the AoE 123 to be a little higher to make it a little more in line with what people are expecting/used to (generally, AoE rotations are supposed to always be a gain on 3+ targets).

Update: Things got a little weirder once I took Subtractive Palette into account. Not quite as cursed as the normal combo, but still pretty cursed. Neg. ST 1: 700 Neg. AoE 1: 160* (loss on 4, gain on 5+) Neg. ST 2: 740 Neg. AoE 2: 180* (loss on 4, gain on 5+) Neg. ST 3: 780 Neg. AoE 3: 200* (loss on 3, gain on 4+) Total Neg. ST: 2220 Total Neg. AoE: 540* (loss on 4, gain on 5+) So once again, your AoE combo, even when buffed by Subtractive Palette, is STILL a loss on 4 targets, and doesn't become a gain until there's 5+ targets. Once again, I'm not comparing this to the Creature Muse or Weapon Muse because of how high those potencies are (you're clearly intended to hit those---more or less---on cooldown), but I still don't feel great about the basic AoE combos being a loss in 4 target scenarios, when pretty much every job at this point sees AoE gains starting at 3 targets. It feels very strange to see this suddenly be the case when they've been pushing AoE more and more to be a universal gain on 3+ targets for pretty much every job. (quite a few even see gains starting at 2 targets; most healers' AoE skills are a gain on 2.)

People in the comments are really forgetting that SMN was JUST reworked in our latest expac? Literally from like the ground up to be a great intro to the caster role with its ease of use.

Maybe I'm just a filthy casual, but to me there's a glaring issue with Picto and Viper: they start at too high a level. When I picked up Sage and Reaper it was a bit overwhelming to get 20+ abilities and traits right away. And this is going to keep getting worse. Next expansion, the new jobs will start at 90, no doubt with 30+ abilities and traits right out of the gate. Personally, I'd have new jobs start at a much lower level, say 50 or 60, BUT they have massively reduced XP costs to level up for the first 20 or 30 levels. This way the functional time to level them up to current expansion content would be much the same as starting 10 levels below current expansion, just starting with a much smaller toolkit so as not to overwhelm the player. Or maybe I just need to gitgud.

i mean, i just run a couple low-level dungeons/trials with new classes to get a feel for the skill progression and rotation rather than immediately jumping into on-level content yoshi-p has also said a few times that we're not going to level 110 for next expansion and they're going to formulate new methods of progression, so who knows what level the 8.0 classes will be introduced at, but i highly doubt they'll start at 90.

@@gothdad420 I forget that duty support is a thing, I wouldn't want to subject a random group to me being utterly clueless to a job. Sounds like the next expansion might include a level squish then.

Just take everything off your hotbars and go into palace of the dead from lvl 1. You’ll organically learn the new skills as they become available and can place them on the hotbar one by one. By level 50, you should have a pretty good idea of how the job works and can place the rest of the kit on the hotbars yourself (or you can go into the other deep dungeons and repeat the process)
