Story: In an effort to prove Pureblood Garlean supremacy, certain factions among the Optimates endeavored to create a method of sustaining troops on the battlefield to phase out the need for savages to wield magicks. Luckily for those attempting to push into Garlemald, the designs for this equipment were intercepted by Populares spies and distributed to the Garlond Ironworks to better arm the Eorzean soldiers.
Now, with war swiftly approaching, the Medicus steps out onto the battlefield in earnest. Finally, Garlean ingenuity has managed to surpass magickal healing in its traditional role on the battlefield, and a new era of warfare is upon us.
Weapon: Two-handed hand cannon attached by a series of tubes to the Synthesis Chamber, a glass canister worn on the Medicus’s back.
Limit Break: Mega-Phoenix - The Synthesis Chamber overclocks, creating a powerful Phoenix Down that gets launched into the air, creating a large ball of light, from which smaller balls of light drift down onto the party, fully reviving them

I'm surprised nobody else has replied to this thread yet. I really like the idea of applying resource stacks to your teammates which you can spend on heals or shields. DPS took some damage? regens! Tank about to eat a tankbuster? Shields! Plus, I'm a sucker for technology based jobs. Really do hope the XIV team see this thread.

12-03-2019, 03:36 AMLeidirivThanks! I'm glad you enjoy the class concept, man. Is there anything you'd like to see adjusted to make the gameplay flow a bit better, or is it about right in your opinion?Quote:

I like it too!
I have two comments:
- Dark Matter is a good ability, and I guess it is most likely to be used on the tank but it might pe problematic in its design if you want to use it on any party member that has higher Solution stacks but is out of range of enemies. Maybe make it work like <tt> macros: turn the solution stacks into an attack delivered to the target's target? Or have Dark Matter convert the current Solution stacks in Feedback, and then add a Feedback spender, directly targeting enemies in a small AoE?
Regardless, the idea of turning your party membrs into mines is cool!
- I think you would need to have a HUD element to have a better overview of available stacks of Solution to be used. Sometimes buff icons are messy to read within a fight, so either have some kind of count of how much is available, or a faint glow with 5 intensities on party members that the Medicus would be the only one to see.
Great work anyway :)
