Using a script or add-on that scans GameFAQs for box and screen images (such as an emulator front-end), while overloading our search engine.

There is no official GameFAQs app, and we do not support nor have any contact with the makers of these unofficial apps. Continued use of these apps may cause your IP to be blocked indefinitely. This triggers our anti-spambot measures, which are designed to stop automated systems from flooding the site with traffic.

Some unofficial phone apps appear to be using GameFAQs as a back-end, but they do not behave like a real web browser does.

Using GameFAQs regularly with these browsers can cause temporary and even permanent IP blocks due to these additional requests.

If you are using Maxthon or Brave as a browser, or have installed the Ghostery add-on, you should know that these programs send extra traffic to our servers for every page on the site that you browse.

The most common causes of this issue are: Seeing that the change to Composure was for the sake of 'fun', I'd prefer option A over the others.Your IP address has been temporarily blocked due to a large number of HTTP requests. Alternatively, cap the extended buff duration on others from Perpetuity to 50% and change the Empyrean set bonus to something else.Ĭ) Reduce composure's cooldown to 1-2 minutes to lessen the blow to RDM when composure is dispelled. Incidentally, the Empyrean set bonus would further increase buff duration on others by an additional 6% per piece (totaling to 50% as it is in the current game). Spread it over 3 tiers (lv50, 75, 99), with the split being 66% self/6% other at tier 1, 132% self/12% other at tier 2, 200% self/20% other at tier 3. What I'd suggest here is introduce a Job Trait at level 50 called 'Perpetuity' that increases duration of buffs on self by a percentage and duration of buffs cast on others by a lesser amount. The longer buff duration would be trickier.

Turn the Magic Accuracy aspect into a job trait that is gained while leveling. This is the easy route.ī) Adjust/redesign Composure: Change Composure so that it serves a very specific purpose by turning it into a 'melee button' (Increase recast, increase accuracy, 5% JA haste, increase enspell damage), and the other aspects of Composure can be rolled into RDM baseline. One unlucky RNG Dispel or AoE dispel (like the iron giant from December 2018's normal Ambuscade) and RDM could be screwed until the 5-minute recast of Composure ends.Īs I see it, there's a couple of ways to handle this:Ī) Make composure unDispelable: Set Composure so that it can never be affected by Dispel (or put it at the bottom of the priority list the only way Dispel would remove Composure is if it's the last buff on you). This issue is exacerbated by the fact that Composure can be dispelled. We could write this off as a melee problem, except that the extra Magic Accuracy and longer buff duration helps both melee and ranged RDM. From a design perspective this in effect may make RDM a bit too dependent on Composure stat-wise. The changes are appreciated, but I feel this may cause an issue: Composure arguably has a lot of things attached to it. As of the February update, Composure has been buffed to increase enspell damage and increase magic accuracy in addition to increasing buff duration, physical accuracy and spell recast.
