                 Is there still time for them to require you get every REMA weapon and forge it into one giant H2H weapon ? And delete all other jobs but monk ?Sick
Or just add Kick Attacks monk fixed !
 
This item is OP I'm going to petition SE to delete this:

                 I think they closed the gap between idris and non idirs geo with that neck because when they buff REM they are gonna give idris 1-2 more geomancy.
They better not do that....unless they don't care about balance and keeping content difficulty in checks anymore.

<Dev 1> Boss, I just thought of a way to keep subscriptions going for years to come. Gear upgrades via Dynamis! People loved Dynamis! 
<Boss> good idea, lets add Path based upgrades to ultimate weapons too... remember the last time we messed with REMA weapons?  Highlight of my career boys... 
<Dev 2> That is a terrible idea. Maybe we should just fix monk and add new challenging content with rewards equal to the effort. Ya know, like master trials with actual real rewards.

It is interesting that most of the REM if not 90 percent is basically soloable or bought with Gil. Then they turn around forcing you to do dynamis D and with others hmmm. “You will play with others and you will play new dynamis right meow!” I have a feeling in sept update includes faster recast to enter? Who knows.

I would laugh really hard if they somehow managed to make kick attacks overpowered. To the point where the kicks do like 40-60k dmg.
 
Just add spikes to your boots to justify it.

                 I like what they did with dynamis-d time extensions. It means smaller groups that aren't going for wave 2 mega boss will still get +30min after killing 30 small statues.

GEO, 4 song bard, COR, and something hard enough, BLU gets destroyed, when wearing comparable gear.  BLU's been getting almost nothing good in gear to buff CDC, but heavy DD jobs been getting super gear with tons of accuracy, attack, etc.  Most of the gear BLU's getting are for requiescat (garbage) or savage blade/expiacion (great weaponskills, but it's only good above 2k TP, so it's not spammable.  And Expiacion is only for Tizona BLUs, otherwise savage blade is better).  BLU's been getting nothing since the end of rhapsodies, while other jobs been getting handed all kinds of ***.
BLU has survivability over most DD though, and a good blu is always welcome in a zerg pt especially with diffused MG, Harden Shell, etc.
BLU's DD and survivability is laughable compared to RUN.  I also feel WAR, SAM, and DRK could out DPS BLU while wearing large amounts of DT.
I’m several pages late...  BUT! I will 100% vouch this point.  My WAR’s Hybrid set keeps 40% DT, 5% PDT, 90~%DA, 5-hit and 3,500 HP...  Literally doing about 85-90% of optimal DPS in a set that’s only two steps from full turtle...  
 
BLU needs some TLC again..  I know it started getting a little fast but it’s not funny anymore xD

Every dog has his day in FFXI. BLU is getting pushed further down the line, but its still extremely competitive and useful for....everything. BLU can function at a much higher level when underbuffed than other jobs. It's just the nature of the FFXI beast.
 
Summoner used to be trash and never invited to anything. Now? Can clear pretty much any content atm. It's a pendulum swing and when it comes to your job's favor, it is what it is. Been going this way for 16 years. The only jobs that has consistently been at the top has been SAM and WHM, through every phase of FFXI. Besides those two, it changes every so often.

 All for the cost equivalent of 25 runs per weapon.
 
 <Dev 1> Boss, I just thought of a way to keep subscriptions going for years to come. Gear upgrades via Dynamis! People loved Dynamis!
 <Boss> good idea, lets add Path based upgrades to ultimate weapons too... remember the last time we messed with REMA weapons?  Highlight of my career boys...
 <Dev 2> That is a terrible idea. Maybe we should just fix monk and add new challenging content with rewards equal to the effort. Ya know, like master trials with actual real rewards.
 <Boss> Angry face

Only thing missing is the glorious 150 HP cause monk needs more HP.More HP, Defense and kick attacks.  What else could Monk really need? w

Ultimate goal over time is add so much hp monk could tank without a whm. 
 
I also think boost should be at least 5 min duration before attack.
 
Wait I got it. Every time a monk lands a hit or kick you regen any HP lost from dmg.

                 If anything they should have added Kick Attacks to the weapon instead of 150HP. That neck is not worth giving up Moonbeam Nodawa
