What do u mean?
Old Fey Glow/Light = based off of a player's skill or spell speed stat. Hence why it was beloved by BLMs stacking spell speed and a marginal increase for everyone else.
New Fey Wind = a flat % buff to your casting and reuse timers. Better effect for most players this way.
It also now effects auto attacks, IIRC.
I liked it the old way and it helped me. I could see a speed increase easily!! First disciples of war get faster then us magic people take our turn going faster lol!!
You really don't know what Selene's buff did lol. They made it so those with a lower SkS/SpS will see a much larger increase than those that already have large amounts of SkS/SpS. It's a 3% reduction off of your cast and recast time for GCDs rather than a flat 30% increase in SpS/SkS which only benefitted those that stacked those stats.
Most of the time, Selene. But sometimes, Eos is usefull since you can stay on cleric stance a little longer during heal check, that increase your amount of dps.
A1 savage is a great example where Eos can be usefull. Fey Illumination gives better adlo and cure for a whitemage and the aoe HoT is usefull with rouse. If you dps as a scholar, sometimes Eos can be more usefull than selene since a scholar's dps is better and Eos can provide longer cleric stance dance.
Selene Fey Wind DPS increase barely amounts to anything, but Eos Hyper Healing + Fey Covanant lets you stay in Cleric Stance longer. The only reason I'd use Selene is for party-wide status removal.
Personally, i use selene a lot. With rouse her embrace is pretty decent and its nice to have the aoe cleanse and her buff is decent on melee. I might experiment more with eos when i hit 60 sch.
Prior to HW, I was a diehard Eos user, as I felt the way Selene's Speed buff was structured made it rather underwhelming and preferred the extra healing cooldowns from Eos. I'm starting to use Selene more now, as Fey Wind is much more useful, and Fey Caress also gives her a great support option.
I hadn't considered using Eos in 4-mans and Selene in 8-mans, though, and I actually think that's a pretty solid way to go, since extra personal DPS is probably a lot more impactful in 4-mans than Fey Wind on just 3 other party members.
You're heavily underestimating eos, A1 Savage was a pure example of massive amount of healing needed during the 1st week, and eos's healing boost and other buffs helped tremendously for a WHM co-healer. Keep in mind the more potent healing spells are, the less Mp you have to use, there is also a lot of downtime after feywind. so when few wind is not up selene is pretty useless. or rather, no more useless then eos spamming embrace.
