    PIE now a substat

    They just announced PIE will be a substat now, only affecting healers, but the effect is more or less the same.

    I wonder what this means for BLMs. It will be nice to no longer have racial disparity in MP pools, but even outside of the racial disparity there was a benefit to reaching a certain amount of mp. If they factor that threshhold into BLM mp pools right off the bat then great, otherwise I hope we can still use piety materia as non-healer classes.

    I know there was at least a bit of a consideration for smn too. they don't have unlimited mp like blm. More max mp means slightly more natural mp regen and aetherflow gives more mp.

    With Piety not being a main stat anymore it might be possible to penta-meld it now!

    It being a substat may mean the piety party buff is removed and all 3 healers will provide the mind party buff now. #RIPWHM

    Always wondered, does Piety affect MP regen? As I feel like this would be far more useful (and worth stacking for prolonged fights) than simply more MP.

    It does not affect mp regen directly, but since the natural mp regen is of 2% of maximum mana every 3s in battle, the more Mp you have, the better the regen, so you can consider that 100 piety, which gives about 800-850 mp now, will result in a +16mp/3s boost.
