Idiocy

[Quetzacoatl]

A little late for me to make a post on this but its not about being a main healer or being on par with whm, though dancers can already heal for 900(ish) hp with their highest waltz (thats besides the point) Its about only being able to heal for 380 damage when the HP values are up into the thousands! That just doesnt cut it anymore when a a mage has 1300 outside of aby, why should 4 cure IVs be needed to full heal a mage?! so unless rdm gets cure V there will be much complaining to continue. Whm will still have cure VI and still be the best at healing, until other jobs get cure VI no job can take the place of WHM.

...let's put it this way:

Cure 6 to WHM is Cure 5 to RDM. It does WAY too much curing power outside abyssea to even be worth using. Also, why are you even using Cure 6 outside abyssea?

380 Cure 4? Stop casting cures naked.

380 Cure 4? Stop casting cures naked.

That, too. Cure Potency gear [do you need it?]

Oh yeah, so what, you're one of those buttersheep bsts that uses nothing but sheep for everything?

Guess what, the only way a bst ever has a chance of getting invites to anything worthwhile is if they are packing dipper and ghetto treasure hunter. At 10K-14K EACH, that is pretty damn pricey.

I wasn't as interested in laying out an argument as being flippant, given the general "content" of this topic. Basically, I just wanted to point out that every jug doesn't cost 100k a stack. Beyond that, the monsters produced by those jugs are actually better for pure damage than Dipper Yuly.

I'm rdm i can't use it but you act like mistakes dont happen, links dont happen, sometimes things happen you cant expect and it would be nice to only have to use one cure spell isntead of 2 or 3 when i could instead cast cure V and then follow up with shadows or a nuke or stoneskin or whatnot. Just my opinion so yea! Cheers!

OMG he said Of instead of If.. we should totally get the grammer police on it...

For the record kiddies.. nit picking gets you no where fast.

Have something to say with some meaning or why waste your time.

Actually, in this instance, the word "of" is appropriate, because I'm not referring to a possibility ("if"), but of an instance ("of"). Nice try though.

Yes, but no one invites a bst to anything worthwhile for pure damage. If they want pure damage they will invite a WAR who not only does more damage than BST but can PROC ... so, I don't see what your arguement is.

I promise -the only invites I've ever gotten to parties doing anything worthwhile as a bst is as ghetto treasure hunter when no THF was to be found. No one invites you on a seal run for damage. No one invites you to a big nm for damage. It is procs, heals, TH or go home.

Not really, you just stand there while waiting for the proc(s), then after the proc(s) you zerg it down.

If anything, you are just a placeholder for pop items.

My cure 4's on sch are like 480ish and my cure gear sucks terribly.

I agree that outside abyssea the amount cured isn't the biggest issue.

Cure VI is of niche use inside Abyssea because MP is unlimited there, and a terrible thing to cast outside.

If you want to beat your personal record for "Worst Cure IV Ever Cast!" I'd recommend equipping a Dark Obi and casting it in a dynamis zone on Darksday.

I'd like to see Red Mage and Scholar get Cure V, because it's always good to have multiple options for main healer, but I have no idea what some of you guys are thinking.
