      @smeagi1 he raises a good point on the bio blast and flamethrower. Bio blast puts a dot, then makes it buff flamethrower ? Or like he said make flamethrower ignite it so it explodes?
      Turn flamethrower into a single use GCD that is aoe but gives 20 heat sharing a cool down with air anchor? Call it Grenado shot? Make Mechaqueen do aoe suddenly how we trip over using it now.
      Just some ideas 💡

      ​@mrdarkstar3756 I've always thought of the idea of putting in a trait that makes it so flamethrower builds battery as it ticks. Hell go a step further and make it build battery and heat. If they buffed Auto-cross and put some battery on bio, if it would feel a lot more fluid to then bio > flamethrower > queen> hypercharge

  • @Tyberes
    @Tyberes Před 16 dny +26

    for Wildfire what I'd do is that I'd set it up so that if you hit with an AoE skill (Scattergun, Chainsaw, Excavator, Auto Crossbow) it spreads like a secondary bomb to other targets. Put wildfire on the big target, hit it with a bunch of Auto Crossbow shots (as a bonus this gives Auto Crossbow a unique role) and then watch a bunch of secondary explosions got off after a few seconds like "BOOBOBOBOBMOBBOM" generating both damage and serotonin.
    Now for Wildfire in Single Target what I'd do is kinda just go the same direction Hypercharge went. Extend the duration a few seconds, and then have it pop immediately upon reaching the 6th stack. It's a little less exciting than you'd hope, it lowers the skill ceiling a little bit, but it works consistently at any ping.
    As far as "what to do about Flamethrower" I think nuking Flamethrower as it is, and making it a direct upgrade to Auto-Crossbow (one input, one damage event) would work. It's the most boring option by a huge margin sure, but it's a clean one.
    I get why they don't want to give Queen an AoE: No way to generate AoE with your filler because Scattergun doesn't generate Battery -> Scattergun doesn't generate battery because they're worried about it generating too much battery in Single Target Scenarios -> If Scattergun generates too much battery in single target scenarios the rotation becomes "Spam Scattergun for 100% queen uptime".
    They absolutely could fix that problem by like have Scattergun generate 3 battery or something, or only generate battery if it hits 3+ targets. But I get why they don't.

      I mean for wildfire, they could just make it aoe with fall off like a myriad of other skills we currently have. Don't need to complicate things there.
      Oh, turn scattergun into a three part combo action with a reworked flamethrower as the final skill that grants 10 battery. Spread shot -> scattergun -> flamethrower
      Make the turrets shots and overdrive aoe with fall off, dunno how that'd work with queen's punches. Maybe give her the old bishops shock aoe around her every time she punches? Her overdrive is flashy enough to work as an aoe without large visual changes.

    I think part of why tools are fun is that their CDs are all over the place. This is kind of what makes BRD fun also with Empyreal Arrow being such a low CD. I think they should make more jobs have 2 OGCDs that have a 15 second CD and an 20 second CD or something where they float around your rotation.

    I've been a MCH main since StB and honestly it feels PHENOMENAL right now, with my main complaints being what you listed. Genuinely have no idea why they are keeping Auto Crossbow from refreshing skills as it would immediately allow MCH to work for both AoE and ST. Also Flamethrower still exists, I do not know WHY it still exists or why they think it's a good skill especially with it being the Stormblood capskill. Delete it or change it at this point please yoshi-p, I will keep saying that if you are going to change Flamethrower just turn it into a more potent Bio on a longer cooldown. This way at least MCh can apply a DoT during things like trials since you dont really use bio in single fights.
    Other than that with the EX running I've done in DT MCH feels great and it feels amazing barely having to do the 123 and having hypercharge up so often, it really feels like you are just pumping out a lot of fast heavy hitting attacks. Really my only issue with MCH that wouldn't be a quick fix is the early levels, and this has always been my feelings. Early level MCH just feels like a slog and you don't have any real "wow" moves and even the 123 feels like you are just auto attacking. Kind of wish there could be some way to fix early level MCH because getting low level stuff in roulette really drags down the class down.

    • @Draylin41
      @Draylin41 Před 12 dny

      I've always hated the handful of abilities that just seem to be there and don't really fit in anywhere. Give them some function to synergize with the rest of the kit or just drop them entirely. Tons of ways Flamethrower could fit in for procing other things MCH does but instead it's just sitting there not being useful since it has not meter generation.

  • @Spicynugz223
    @Spicynugz223 Před 16 dny +12

    I like your idea to make flamethrower ignite bio blaster along with auto crossbow reducing the cd of the OGCDS. I think having both would be a cool change, though it may take some time to know what to prioritize pressing first given all the AOE you received the past 2 expansions.
    Autocrossbow change would make the most sense, but I think bioblaster and flamethrower as DoTs on such a burst class makes no sense other than “these are tools that MCHs use”.

  • @Spicynugz223
    @Spicynugz223 Před 16 dny +3

    I echo your sentiment about single target fun, it feels like a complete version of the EW MCH. AoE skills and Wildfire feel very underwhelming to use compared to other jobs. I would be fine if wildfire stayed single target, but had a cooler animation that was more noticeable (though they made mug aoe, so who knows maybe they would change it to multi target). Potency definitely is a tad lower than where it was in EW, but this is a lot easier to fix than gameplay.

  • @DoktorWieg
    @DoktorWieg Před 10 dny

    I've had the thought of a few ways to make Flamethrower more useful or at least able to trigger stuff :
    *Idea #1 : Bio-accelerant*
    Using Bioblaster inflicts "Bio-accelerant" which increases the potency of Flamethrower by X for the duration of Bioblaster on affected targets. Simple, it just makes sense that your bioblaster would coat stuff so adding a fire accelerant to it seems like the logical way to do it.
    *Idea #2 : Wild Napalm*
    Whenever Wildfire triggers to deal damage, it leaves a patch of tar on the ground beneath the target's location. Enemies standing in the patch take the "Tarred" status which inflicts Heavy+20%. If an enemy within the AoE is hit with either "Heat Blast", "Blazing Shot" or "Flamethrower", the patch lights up dealing damage over time to all who stands in it (kind of like the NIN's Doton)
    *Idea #3 : Flame Blast*
    "Flamethrower" is removed and replaced with "Flame Blast". If "Hypercharge" is triggered after using "Barrel Stabilizer", "Auto-crossbow" changes to "Flame Blast". "Flame Blast" deals the same damage as Auto-crossbow but inflicts a stack of "On Fire!" status which deals a X damage DoT per stack for 15 and reduces the damage the target(s) deal(s) by 1%.

    @Draylin41 Před 12 dny

    My idea of how to fix queen is to not actually change what it does but just add a reflect ability to it. Like any time its in range of one of your aoes it just triggers a second aoe on top of it. Simple, fun way to get it to help you with large trash packs without having to change its single target function.

The Queen automaton also always felt tacked onto the job as well, but that's not as bad for me as the awkward aoe rotation has always felt on Machinist.

      I personally don't like things like this and apex arrow on Bard. Having to use a gauge at specific levels a minute in advance to prep it for your burst window feels so weird and unintuitive to me. Maybe they could add a free 100 gauge queen usage buff to barrel stabilizer and a free 100 gauge apex arrow usage buff to raging strikes or something?

  • @user-zh3jm2ok2p
    @user-zh3jm2ok2p Před 12 dny

    Can someone tell me if it’s better to use the Automaton Queen at 50 or 100 battery gauge? I was under the impression that it didn’t matter & now the duration is fixed but the damage is lower depending on the gauge. So you could either use it twice at 50 or close to that, or use it once at 100 gauge.

    • @Bravadorado
      @Bravadorado Před 22 hodinami

      You want a 100 gauge queen to line up with your burst window, so you have to do queens at specific gauge timings leading up to your burst window in order to achieve that without overcapping. It's kind of fucky tbh.

    @DamianMiller Před 16 dny

    As a mch main since Heavensward (and pre-rebuild of the class), I'm agreeing that the AOE just feels bad overall and like the kit doesn't mix with its single target rotation very well. I feel bad doing the AOEs and I feel lacking compared to other classes and their AOE. I have a feeling that having a 1-2 or 1-2-3 combo for the AOE might help a bit, maybe spread shot into scatter gun, then maybe the updated skillset is auto-crossbow into bioblaster into noiseblaster (pulling from ff6 lore a bit more).
    I love flamethrower, especially against packs, but it almost needs a bit of love - maybe 5 heat and/or battery every time you do a tick of damage to encourage you to use the skill? Just something to tie the job into the single target attacks a bit more!
    Wildfire...it's nice but for the effort to maximize the damage I could have a kinder rotation to my fingers in the burst window. I just feels like bonus damage just for hitting a button and that's about it.

    Imo this is the best the job has felt since it's rework in shb, there's a LOT less time where you're just hitting your 123 combo and nothing else. Adding another drill charge and a follow up to chainsaw did wonders for the feeling of tools, you always feel like you're using all of these tool skills and it's great. Constant Queen summons is great too, if they made it do aoe damage I'd be perfectly happy with the job in dungeons. It could use some more tweaks but not super urgently imo

    I live in Quebec with a ping of 80-90ms to Aether and Machinist is unplayable on a decent/high level without Alexander or Noclippy. Also, Double check and Checkmate are too flashy with the lights and smoke, sometime I don't see what the boss is doing at all. It's really stupid problem. I don't want to lower my abilities' visuals just because of these 2 skills but I'm tempted to. Also skill wise, it's very clear that nobody on their team is MCH main. They seem to have no clue how to balance MCH correctly. The AOE ability not recharging Double check and Checkmate is simply pure ignorance on how the job functions. Also why tf is Wildfire not auto DH/Crit is incomprehensible..

    It's easy enough I rarely get out damaged in a PuG. People really undervalue easy. Can a black mage out-damage me? Sure, but almost none do. MCH has to be the easiest job to be good at it. No positionals and no cast times when the games only mechanic is movement is nice. Real nice.

    Just got MCH to 100 yesterday and I agree that the AoE feels like ass. Flamethrower has no feedback so it feels like you're doing nothing when using it and Bioblaster is just meh? They definitely should let auto crossbow reset your other abilities. It would make it feel wayyy better to play.
    Single target is another story and it feels great. Its so nice just blasting big skill after big skill in the opener and getting Queen without a combo. A few potency buffs would be much appreciated.
    Lets see if Square continues the trend from EW and gives Drill 20 potency lol

    legit do not see why flamethrower can't be a turret or a bot that follows you around.....I know a lot of people like the animation.....maybe have it so when can summon a pure aoe version of the queen? One that does non-stop flamethrower while it's out while tossing some grenades/aoe's around?

    I personally dont mind Machinist's AoE rotation, I find it satisfying while I do still see whwre youre coming from. I personally wish Bioblaster's cooldown was not shared with Drill as this would give Machinists a DoT to keep up on bosses/single targets.

    • @ThisIsntAYoutuber
      @ThisIsntAYoutuber Před 15 dny

      People with unstable or high ping could not reliably play MCH back in the day, because Hypercharge used to be entirely timed. You could lose out on a gcd in Hypercharge because you couldn’t use ogcds in between Heat Blasts without clipping. And you HAD to use your ogcds or else you’d lose out on OGCD casts.
      It was godawful. Damned if you do OGCD, damned if you don’t OGCD.

    At least based on FFLogs for the two EX Trials currently Machinist seems to be about even with Bard on average and is outperforming Dancer. The like 95th-99th percentiles are lower but like you say, Machinist is naturally low variance on these damage charts with several auto CritDH, a high damage DoT, no internal buffs to keep aligned, and no rDPS component. Not sure you need to be as concerned about the job's damage as you are - it's certainly looking a lot better than it did for most of Endwalker

  • @RockR277
    @RockR277 Před 14 dny

    Here's a couple ideas I had responding to someone else's comment.
    Turn scattergun into a three part combo action with a reworked flamethrower as the final skill that grants 10 battery. Spread shot -> scattergun -> flamethrower
    Make the turrets shots and overdrive aoe with fall off, dunno how that'd work with queen's punches. Maybe give her the old bishops shock aoe around her every time she punches? Her overdrive is flashy enough to work as an aoe without large visual changes.
