all they really have to do to fix the original exploit is make it only apply to helix cast by oneself. Then they can make it more powerful because that more properly fixes the exploit that led to the current situation.

True, but it'd be a much more interesting ability if it worked like clobbering wave and other similar mechanics in FFXIV.
yeah, you could just remove the 9999 DoT cap on helix and make it so Modus Veritas is changed to a self target skill that doubles Helix DMG while cutting down its duration 25~50% based on merits.
I'd also be thrilled by that being how it gets changed, but something needs to happen at the least.

Heh. To be fair it was one of the wildest game mechanic exploits in the game to date, being able to exponentially increase the damage of those spells by having several scholars use MV at the same time to get one giant damage tick. Really though, i don't know why they didn't think of making it only applicable to your own spells, it seems like something they really should have thought of beforehand.
