[1.2.381] The Wind

Archers used to have to spend 20 3rd job skill points to get that 30 speed, pomegranate was fair back then.

Nope, that's why I stated earlier that it feels fitting to archers, and all, at about the beginning of the thread. What I'm saying is that, right now, it feels completely unnatural the fact that we can use haste and archers go faster than us, the ones casting it; the supposed "speed class". That was towards the comment about "Speed doesn't matter".

And don't worry, we'll be using 20 points on 2nd job so you can go faster than us... Doesn't make much sense, does it?

So this brings us to this point:

If anything, I can see FJ being moved to second job or something in the Thief update.

Really, chill until you guys see the Thief update (assuming there is one) and don't act as if you guys are stuck with what you have forever. I've personally always thought archers were the second-fastest class in terms of mobility (Thieves obviously being first), and it'll most likely stay that way because it makes little sense otherwise.

Besides, if Double Jump is as I think it is (equal to WH's), then FJ is still better. o_o

Yeah, we still have to wait for the thief update. Right now, I'm feeling like this because all we got recently, instead of a bit more variety, was just the nerf of our main attacking skill (the only one on single target). What common sense is telling me, is that we'll get our speed cap raised too, with a passive speed boost, also. I'm daydreaming about having 200 speed, 165 jump, unmounted, but could still make sense.

In fact, How archers are set at the moment, it feels awesome to think that there's a class that's gonna benefit more with haste, the same way us NLs benefit more from Sharp Eyes. Just doesn't feel natural at the moment.
