And no, no one dislikes playing the job. You can argue whether or not it's the best mage, which it rightfully isn't for every situation, but it's always going to be the most fun.
I dislike playing the job, hence why I stopped it at 61. So maybe take into account that some people can have different opinions, maybe?

This, and also Enternius you gotta take in consideration other jobs are getting taken off, so it could also be for lack of choices. I voted -THF even though I like the job, I just don't like it as much as the other choices.

I know the 1 SCH is pointless because at this point, everyone is so jealous of SCH that they're just going to rate it into the ground after reading/seeing my posts a few pages back. Regardless, I'll stick with it to the end. Ever occur to you that some of us just don't like playing the job? Maybe no one told you, but you're overhashed comments are getting really, really annoying. That and any blm can tell you something is horribly off with this SS

Anything else you'd like to refute?
For example here is my nuking gear. That weskit is the only augment.
Not as good as that blms by like 4int and 2MAB though he does have what looks like witch strap for higher crit hit rate lol.
Now lets do those nukes. Notice it is earth day and I have 0 dmg related buffs. Not even food. No burn is being used.

I've said it quite a few times, but I know that's not that BLM's max possible damage. But even if that BLM had been nuking in the wrong staff, without Uggalepih or Sorcerer's Ring latent, the original point of the screenshot was to show that an above-average-geared SCH will still be in the same ballpark as a BLM with ideal gear.
My gear has since gotten quite a bit better, and I'm still not finished with merits but my Thunder IV seems to average about 1650 with Uggalepih active, with no other buffs except given SCH spells/JAs. Say what you want about the full Morrigan's BLM, but I'm still comparing with your nukes.

eh, i think this is mostly a fun little minigame that's more about pure personal preference than an actual in-depth judgement on the merits and weaknesses of each job
not really something to be taken seriously

I tend to agree with Enternius, considering that most of the people rating down SCH are people with BLM but not SCH..the ones who nerd rage and RHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE whenever they see a SCH that can nuke better than them.

Agreed, if I want to argue which job is better, I'd make a thread about it. I thought this game was supposed to be about FAVORITE jobs.

Hush. I want my fun thread back, thanks. The 25-page long SCH vs. BLM thread was started by a BLM.
The current SCH vs. BLM debate was started by a PUP.

the game result is strictly dependant by the post order (1000 voters for a job may come too late because the first 5 peeps voted -5 earlier, just a stupid example to point out a little flaw in the game rules =D)

Asura.Korpg said: Siren.Enternius said: The 25-page long SCH vs. BLM thread was started by a BLM. The current SCH vs. BLM debate was started by a PUP. Still isn't resolved. Okay, how about this.
For zerg-style fights, BLM has a massive advantage, not being restricted to only two major spells.
For endurance fights, SCH wins, for obvious reasons.
For highest-possible-spike situations, BLM wins.
As far as Damage:MP efficiency goes, SCH wins.
BLM has stun, AoE nukes, and elemental DoTs.
SCH has Helices, Sublimation, and Arts.
Neither job will ever make the other obsolete. Neither job will ever fall to disuse.
While I may have an obvious bias toward SCH, I do not withhold credit where it is due.

Something I forgot to mention: I do have a character with 75 BLM and also 66 BLM on this character. I have more than enough experience with the job to know whether or not I like it. And I don't dislike it by all means. SCH is just so much better suited to the way I play.
Notice, I said I do not dislike BLM. Go ahead and scroll up and check my posts, I didn't rate BLM down even once.I can acknowledge when a job has its uses.
It's stupid stuff like Dasva insinuating that SCH is a worthless job, when it clearly is not, that annoys me.

I agree for the most part, but SCH can put out a shitload more damage during 2hr than BLM can.
