3.0 Adjustments to Existing Actions for WHM & SCH

Wow, are you kidding me? They nerf the damage, add more cast time to an already slow spell, and then make it cost 3 times the MP?

It's always been a 3 second cast and the increased MP cost is probably because it's scaling as a level 60 WHM versus level 50 that we're used to now.

Though the damage nerf feels a little uncalled for. Oh well.

If you look at the screenshot that was posted of the original it was a 2.75 second cast. It's now 2.93, does less damage (to all except the first enemy) and costs literally three times the MP.

EDIT: Actually, it's over three times the cost. The original MP was 532. 532 x 3 = 1,596. It's now listed as 1,768.

You realize MP costs and MP scale according to level right? Costs/MP scaled about 3.3X from 50 -> 60 in all cases for all jobs, nothing weird about it.

Also the 2.75 cast is with i130 SS at level 50. The 2.93 is probably just low SS for level 60 scaling. It may be a 3.5s GCD and that's in fact high SS, but I doubt it.

It's probably 2.75 seconds for Selli because Selli (or whomever she got the image from) is a spell speed WHM. For me (Crit WHM), Holy is 2.93s, just like in the Twitter screen shot listed.

Also, I will repeat myself, it probably costs 3x the MP because the MP cost scaling from level 50 to level 60.
