    Since the update Cure 5 is almost trash. It gives only 20-25% more healing than cure 4 and at 1.5x the cost, the only thing it offers now is a slight -enmity. They said they wanted whm to be main healer but by not buffing cures 5 + 6 with this update, they just made sch a better healer since they can use -enmity spell on all their cures and cure 4 with light arts isn't far behind cure 5 (it's certainitly better mp use now to use cure 4 over 5 on ANY job if -enmity isn't a concern) on a whm and they can cast cure 4 with lower enmity than a whm can cast cure 5 if they use their -enmity spell.

    Cure 6 was always trash, offering 1.5x the cure power of cure 5 at 2x the cost. Now cure 6 is even worse in reguards to mp vs. cure power use. Thx SE, thx.

    I have no problem with ALL single tier cures being raised in power, the way it stands now is seriuosly lacking and is the EXACT opossite of what they said they wanted. They said they wanted to help rdm and sch assist in curing, but what it has done has trashed whm's best cure spell (cure 5) and made no adustments to the already inferior mp hog that is cure 6.

    Summary: All single tier cures need this adjustment, not just cures 1-4. Cure 5 +6 are seriuosly lacking.

It encourages you to explore the whole breadth of content rather than asking you to bumrush and bypass all the old content just so you can grind the newer content. This is a model used by other MMOs such as WoW, and while I don't have anything against people that enjoy this model, if I wanted to play an MMO with that model there are many, many games vast superior to XI in terms of mechanics and especially customer service that offer such a model.
