An Idea for SCH and SGE : Regarding Gauges

Funnily enough, though, the tank takes enough damage for me to use many of my Addersgall in EX so I don't run the risk of MP issues. Mostly when I see TBs I just straight up shield it since it'll give me a movement option later on if I'm caught running.

Agreed, Addersgall isn't something we should want to remain uncapped at all times, since it's purely just used for healing and mitigation. I really dislike the idea of Rhizomata consuming an Addersgall to give an Addersting, because Toxicon is NOT worth losing an Addersgall for (technically 2 since this change would also mean no backup on demand Addersgall). It's good for AoE, and for DPSing while moving, but otherwise...

I rather spend my Addersgall maintaining 10% DR on the tank / party, and keeping Rhizomata on hand for when desperation strikes and I need the extra healing cooldown. Doing that generally keeps my MP healthy, too. For purely healing things like this, it's better to have them and not need them than it is to need them but not have them. If it contributed to DPS I would understand the desire to keep these things uncapped to optimise DPS output. But it's purely for healing purposes and I'd rather have the emergency tools than give them up just for another esaily gotten Toxicon charge. Especially since if Sage runs out of cooldowns and Addersgall, all they are left with is a heal equivalent to Cure 1...
