LL 70 WHM Changes

https://images-ext-2.discordapp.net/...1_19-43-51.jpg

This was the listed change on the PowerPoint, but they repeatedly said patch notes hold more. Yoshida also said that all healers will get MP adjustments, with skills costing less.

Is there still hope for WHM? :p

Casual healers will probably have a better time in content.
Career healers... probably won't need to meld PIE anymore, but I doubt any changes to game flow will occur.

As is - no changes to gameplay. Which leaves WHM in the dust since its dps is still trash and healing is still punishing. Good thing I am leveling sage.

Regen costs 400. No visible changes to anything else so far.

Absolutely amazing change. 10/10. WHM is saved everyone. /s

Just delete the job at this point. Seriously. If the Devs can't be bothered to fix it, just remove it. It's worked wonders for them in the past.

Can't fix Dark Arts spam? Remove
Can't Fix TP issues? Remove
Can't fix WHM???????????

The devs heard our complaints about 1 button spam (obviously Cure I, what else would we be spamming) and low mana economy and put 2 and 2 together, (which makes 5 crayons?), realizing that as much as we want to mix Regen in, the 100 higher cost was draining us.

But no longer! Now we'll have two 400 mana cost buttons to alternate, doubling our engagement! (Not to mention Freecure!)

Thanks to Sylphie the intern our new healer QA tester, who took over from Bob last week (who sadly went senile and starting mumbling gibberish about "overheal" and "potency loss"), for the amazing ideas.

Every problem Square encounters looks like nail because they lack the skill to use a screw driver. It is hammer time boys!

Oh goodie the skill I almost never touch anymore now costs less. You know what does not and stinks at the lower levels? Cure 2. Cure 2 costs 1000 MP at level before you gain thin air or.. any ogcd skills until Bene. A hinga dinga dergen. Gods they really need to think about hiring new people..

Yes because the problem with mana being an issue would have been fixed in brayflox with that regen change. Ooh you mean you don't get regen until afterwards brayflox on whm whoops. I just want one dev ONE DEV to play through the entire leveling process of whm with a big pulling tank gear starved just go through the dungeons with horrible rng and pity drops at the end of the dungeon being pants for disciple of war or just getting pants for each dungeon. Just go through and see how it feels. Than go into each dungeon as astro and feel out the differences than go through as sch. I want to see this on a live stream. Just go through and tell me these are the things you would want even if you do not main healer. I don't main healer and the feeling of the different healers makes me never want to play whm if I am going to be synced down to 50 or less. I would rather play sch or astro maybe sage. Hmmmm what level are you always synced down too.....oh right 50 and below. Fantastic lets not change a thing. At least regen is cheaper. You know the skill you barely use later on. I have never needed to stack regen and medica 2 past level 50 dungeons not once. This will only maybe and I mean MAYBE help slightly, but this is not where I am hurting for mana regen was the least of my worries. Maybe those people who cast regen without letting it tick the full time and brain dead spam medica 2 going oom they have this problem.

Nah, that tester will straight up get replaced after they play either SCH or AST because by that point they've grown too good to know so much.

Sylphie the intern always puts regen on everyone for maximum Medica 2 plus regen uptime. Chad Thunderhealer understands the importance of uptime and maximizes the value of every heal.

Do not be a Sylphie!

oh my gosh you are correct. I forgot they did that T_T Frell that! They need jesus because that is how most people play. At this point just make everything in final fantasy cookie clicker cause we all need just play a simple game so we can all watch netflix while we play. ITS TOO STRESSFUL! My brain physically hurts from their mental gymnastics.

I wonder if they just hired someone who had gone through some horrible brain experiment so there was no chance of them not drooling on the keyboards and playing like they should just slamming their two hands on the keyboard. They couldn't have hired a monkey because they would also play too good.

Ah! I have found it! This is the healer play tester!

I figured the dev team quit caring about the levelling experience years ago, it seems pretty obvious to me that all jobs are designed to be played at level cap and really no consideration is given to how they play any time before that. I would guess this is probably because most of the feedback they get is rabid raiders going on about the few hundered DPS they are off in the latest content and nothing else.

While this is going to sound dumb and hopeful, they said they were going to adjust the MP economy across all healers. While Regen got -100 MP cut off, I almost - key word almost - want to think they're fidgeting with the MP Recovery formula as well as Lucid, the generalized MP Regen ability. There are some changes that also aren't listed, mind, so "wait until patch notes" as any white knight of XIV would say...

I just want them to fix this trash fire(they sprinkled some water on it - but there's still a fire) of a job so that it's not abusive to your co-healer to bring.

aye T_T but that is literally where we are stuck playing. Your right though most raiders already maxed leveled the jobs they need or jump potted to the end to not have to deal with it while the window licking group complains about having to dps on healer and the casual mid tier people who are the ones who stick around and play through all of the content regret constantly giving them money when no one listens on the dev team to legitimate issues. I don't want this game to go the route of literally every other dead game out there but it is really trying to get there fast. 10 years they said. They can't honestly believe by just doing things for end game they will keep their players around. There is only so much people can take. Not everyone is a super casual. Not everyone is a raider. Some are kinda just in between but stick around the longest because we like all of the parts in the game maybe consider raiding but not be super serious about it.

I am so baffled by all of this I find myself thinking like the devs. 'What changes would make the least amount of sense? Hmmmm' Ah I have it lets just take away all of those support abilities paladin has because they are a tank. Tanks just tank they just get aggro and stand their auto attacking! They really need to hire me I am coming up with some crazy ideas.(literally though if they did that I would stop playing. Not swap jobs like most whm mains have just out right quit)
