And so it ends.

Congratulations to all BSTs who have now wasted alot of time to make 2 x PDT AXE's and get all the other PDT BST Gear...

- Now they won't matter (in abyssea) with just DG atma on...

I felt a great disturbance in the Force… as if millions of BST suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

Exploits will always be missed whether they were intentional or not.
Remember when Sneak Attack worked while facing the mobs?
I never seen so many SAM/THFs in my life.

I'm still gonna level BST anyway, since they do have a bit more versatility overall anyway when it comes to soloing certain things.

It's not the same. This is completely broken. You can literally toss the pet at the NM and afk for an hour and hold up people... SE already nerfed this for SMN, this will be as well.

Dear Draylo,
You were correct. :)

Invincible being the key word.

If you wasted time gearing this thinking it wouldn't be fixed, more fool you.

Meh! Not like this is a huge deal to Beastmasters. We can still keep pets alive till the end of time just toss a few eta, zetas, dawn muslims, healing salve I or II. Like i said not a big deal. They wont be gods any more guess we will have to settle with demigods. And all the Q.Q over Beastmasters really cracks me up.

Not really, a lot of people got a lot of stuff out of it already, it's not like it's only worked for a week.

Not to mention it was never that hard, 2 axes and MKD hat, and done. Maximum of two days work.

It's an update, most people complain everytime there is one for one reason or another.

This was always going to be fixed, that's why you abuse it before it is.

Abusing exploits is never a good idea. Ask all those people that used the salvage dupe back in the day where there accts are now.

Wasn't that for like a few hours or maybe a day after they did the 2H modifier adjustment?

But I believe SA was also broken before NA release, as can be seen reading olde patch notes.

90% of Abyssea is like an exploit anyway, it's more a case of where SE draws the line.

How were making 2 PDT axes a waste?
Now you can use another DD atma instead of DG. :p

I don't think the axes are a waste at all! More room for dd atma or regen.

Like I mentioned in the other thread, the BST community will adapt and find a new way not to die to NM's that can kill alliances. Not the first time they've had to adjust to something being taken away, certainly won't be the last.

Although don't be shocked if you now see BST's slapping on 2 Regen Atam's + Ducal Guard and keep doing the same exact thing that everyone that whined and cried about, a BST taking 60min to kill 'their' mob, going to have to wait 2hr now. Good job!

Edit: Oh and before you decide to try and jump me with whatever it is you have to say about me being said BST in the previous paragraph, no, I wasn't, nor will I ever be someone who wastes that much time for little to no reward unless of course I'm just screwing around but at that point, I'd die anyway since I can't stand wasting peoples time.

I love how people try to justify taking 2 hours to solo a mob. It's lame when they don't accept help either.

So I need clarification here, it just means no more invincible pets as in taking 0 dmg pets right?
Cause if they cap the PDT/MDT so I don't get the 82% amd 65% I've been working on here this last week they better put a *** cap on everything in the game.

Thats the plan! but i'm sure someone will QQ about regen atma's being too powerful, or use 3 evasion atma's then complain dipper yuly is too evasive!

what makes you think having 100%+ of pdt gear it will end the bst soloing? it will still make pets immune to physical damage because the gear and atmas, they will just fix a bug that it looks like makes pets non-vulnerable to attacks
