To Developers: Regen spells

This is for the Developers.

Can they look into giving RDM access to the enhancing magic spells Regen III / Regen IV.

If SE doesn't desire to give RDM access to Cure V then they should at least give us access to the higher level enhancing spells of Regen. This would be a great assistance to RDM's role in supporting their fellow party members.

Regen III/IV would be nice. Tho with composure, these spell would be like crack for melee. IDK if having those spells wouldn't be a little broken. But since we know for sure RDM is not going to see Cure V, doesn't hurt to ask. And would probably make the RDM community happy.

Well SCH already gets a JA that makes their enhancing magic 2x duration, along with the super effects that LA gives them. This would still be below them but would allow us to support heal better.

I dont support this, however I do want the regen spells to last way longer than they do now.
For instance if you have a regen spell active on one member it lasts 10 minutes. If you have two regen spells active in a party, they will each last 5 minutes. 4 Regens active 2.5 minutes active and so on.

With RDMs the case would be a litle different since they have the jobability Composure. Any suggestions?

Even with Regen IV RDM would still only have 30 HP per tick, Okay it would do ~1800 over the duration of 3 minutes but big woop! That'd barely touch most jobs on any content Abyssea+ heck even Dynamis.

The only use it'd ever have is for RDM themselves, it will never be a means to actually heal anyone but yourself.

Nahh with our emp gear it would last a good chunk of time. Your not trying to cure someone for 1000 HP, your recovering them from the damage their going to take. Monster hits for 250, player regen's 30HP. It reduces cure load over time not replaces healing altogether.

Under double duration, it'd be what 1:57 hardly game breaking. Personally Regen IV would be nice, but I see no reason not to get at least Regen III. Two tiers less than the master (SCH) one tier less than WHM.

Considering your original quote was,

And I refuted it. Regen isn't a primary means of curing people, its just healing support. Properly utilized it reduces the amount of healing needed. Back at 75 I would go RDM/SCH and cycle Regen II in-between Haste's on the melee group. Was a nice way to counteract the aoe's people would be taking along with the occasional accession Cure IV.

This wouldn't affect me much either way, personally. Regens are fundamentally useless if you're actually fighting something that's ITG or VT+. You're either wasting ticks, or you're dead. There's very little middle ground.
