A simple request for WHM and SCH LB3

I really wish they made WHM's and SCH's LB3 more flashy, I'm a little jealous of AST and SGE big "wowza" limit break.

OG jobs be like that. Maybe don't force people to use them. :D

Does it need to be flashy? Healer LB3 is an obscenely powerful LB that can drag a group kicking and screaming over the finish line. I think thats enough.

...and here I am actually disliking AST LB3 because it ends with a literal flashbang after the pretty star constellations.

Not everything needs to blow your retinas out.

I would be fine with a more earth based LB without all the light. Bring back the elements to WHM :O

Instead of looking for flashiness, you should instead zoom into the WHM or SCH. WHM kneels in prayer, and I believe it is Tupsimati (Louisoix's staff) that is shown glowing. SCH actually has the most playful interaction with her fairy during this time, and it is cute AF.

Leave them alone.

I don't think it's Tupsimati (unless this was changed somewhere over the years, it used to be Aerith's staff going by my memories from 2.0-2.x days when I played WHM the most). I could be misremembering though.

The SCH one is my favourite and I like how it sounds, and the visuals are there but not enough to not be vermillion scourge blinding tier, which is my only issue with the end of AST's LB (but it's still super pretty).

To be fair SCH's is flashy in its own way.

never really used WHM lb3 because of its visual effects, I generally just use it to avoid a wipe and even then, not that often

so, not sure it needs to be flashy, it just needs to work

As someone with minor light sensitivity I wish there was an option to remove the flash from Limit Breaks all together (like we can from spell effects)

I will say that for Scholars the limit break feels a bit less ‘special’ now that we can summon Seraph whenever we want (every 120 seconds lol). I think the effect/animation itself is fine, but it’s weird that for our ‘ultimate last resort’ ability we’re just popping out the same fairy we always do when we need healing lol. But then idk what it could be replaced with either, since it’s not like there’s anything left for us to summon after Seraph lol

I personally like SCH's LB3 a lot though

But I like getting down on my knees and praying. Whm has so much other flashy aspects to it that I don't feel like it also needs a flashy LB3. I also love giant sized Seraph and how we thank her at the end.

By the point a healer lb3 is used, the animation is the least important part. The flashy animations to me are more suitable for dps usage, because thats generaly just a 'lets at least not waste it' action instead of a cricital save.

Why wouldnt there be anything? There is no lore blocking its existance. Even if characters would say there isnt any... what if you can still discover it because they simply lacked knowledge. ShB enables a major hole to add in lore for this if that would be required. This hole doesnt even need any describing either as lore already enabled enough for its existance to be logical enough, no matter what NPCs even think or say.

Oh I'm just asking for more oomph on the SFX, minus the sudden flash.
Admittingly the flash at the end of AST's LB3 is a bit much, the constellations with the big bubble was enough.

Oh the actual animations are good, I'm just asking for a visual update.
Saving your whole group is always and will be cool, it's just seeing something like Sage's LB3 is just a... spectacle.
