Incoming rant. If disgruntled venting offends, feel free to skip this post.
Well, I really tried to keep expectations low, but it seems like I didn't quite manage it in regards to Mythics/Ergon. So most of my REMA. 3 mythics, 2 ergons.
I'm... somewhat in awe of what complete and utter ***these cookie cutter upgrades are. Mythics are the weps with unique job-specific enhancements. And you give them all the exact same ***?
And the tank weps... what the hell SE? No extra PDT II. No more enmity+...
Oh wait, there's Atonement Enmity+100! .... ... .. . What is this idiocy SE? Did you put an unpaid intern in charge of mythic augments? Do you not understand how your own enmity system works? No one, and I mean NO ONE, uses Atonement as an enmity tool anymore.
Even with its enmity modifier, both the original and this augment, Atonement is still damage based enmity. That means that the dmg to enmity conversion rate is trash on high lvl mobs. And Atonement hits for maybe 2k. In an environment where DD regularly pop off 30K and higher WS, with SCs too. Spitting on the mob would generate more enmity than atonement.
Again, what is this smoking dumpster fire of an augment system?
Oh, and then they put Block rate+ 10 on Excalibur. You put magic acc on my tanking wep, then put Block+ on the DD only sword? /tableflip. And honestly, screw block plus. Do shield skill+ in an equivalent block rate value instead. It's be more useful, as it actually benefits from reprisal. Shield skill +46~50 in this case.
At this point I'd be looking towards shield upgrades to save me from this idiocy... they couldn't *** up shield upgrades, right? Except we didn't get any! So yes, yes they could.
Epeolatry, I suppose, is slightly better off. It does get good use as a hybrid DPS wep, but still... Hello? Tank job? Could I get some tanking enhancements on my tanking wep? Meva on epeo would have been neat, for example.
Before this I was all ready to start spamming merit BCs all month to get my Yagrush and Idris afterglowed to prep for augments. Hadn't bothered before now cause DD stats and some more macc didn't wow me for either for those jobs. And what did Yagrush and Idris get? DD stats and some more macc. ...... Right well.
I think the only REMA of mine to make it out of this OK were my Aeonics.
oh, and screw you SE for wasting one of the DRG neck augments on freaking wyvern stats.
Time to go find something else to play.
