MND to Healing Magic Skill to Cure Potency

[Kitheren]

I have done the math before, years ago, but these days I don't have the energy to redo it again. Being a parent and a gamer is not kind to a brain.

Anywho, I am curious.

How much MND or Healing Magic skill does it take to equal 10% Cure potency?

Also, the Fast Cast cap is 50% as I understand. Does Cure Casting time fit into that or is it something all it's own with it's own cap. I assume it fits into the Fast Cast cap though.

not sure about mnd, but healing magic skill I don't think ever can match 10% cure potency....feel free to correct me as I hate math and don't wanna take the time to write everything out, but I think capped out healing magic skill adds like 50 hp to cure V...btw, if any Devs are seeing this, please make healing magic skill more important in the cure formula!!! I hate that we have the highest rank in a skill that doesn't really do much

Not sure about the cure cap thing...I assume though that cure casting time is different from fast cast, otherwise they'd be called the same thing.

I'm pretty sure to reach a potency stand point would depend on how much you're healing for.

1 MND = 3 VIT = 5 Healing Skill, if that helps.


As for Cure Casting time, you can only reach 50% casting time regardless the method unless you use SCH's penury.

Cure Casting Time, Elemental Magic Casting Time and Fast Cast are all the same thing, the only difference is Fast Cast is for every type of spell and reduces recast time whereas the others are limited to their restricted action.

How much MND or Healing Magic skill does it take to equal 10% Cure potency?

The amount of MND (the most efficient) you'd need to get 3hp on a Cure I (10% Potency) is a lot different from the MND you'd need on a Cure V for 690. To get the 69hp 10% Potency gives, you'd need 69 MND, 207 VIT, 345 Skill, or some combination.

In short:

Potency >>>>>> MND > VIT > Skill

The exact number will vary depending on which soft cap you're in and your current stats (including current potency). However:

10% Cure potency is approximately worth in the region of ~60-120 MND.

Example:
At 90MND 70VIT 300SKILL with 0% potency will net you ~670 HP cureV.
A boost of 10% potency is ~737 HP.
With 0% potency, you would require an additional 103 MND to get the same effect.

At a higher up potency; 40%, the same cure will be ~938 HP.
A boost of 10% potency (to 50%) is ~1005 HP.
With 40% potency, that would require an additional 68 MND for the same effect.

So in short, a whm who is focused on healing should try to hit the potency cap of 50% but try to get a decent amount of mnd. No point in worrying about healing skill aside from capping it and merits?

Don't waste merits on Healing Skill it's not worth it at all.

What would you suggest instead? Enhancing and Divine?

Enfeebling and Enhancing are better than Healing.
