Recover HP/MP while standing still, out of battle, and enmity zeroed

[Neptune]

Can I just ask was it such a big crime to partially regen while doing another task in this game like travelling, closing the distance to another enemy, or trying to get back some MP during a boss fight while doing nothing but casting cure 2?

Did we have to rewind the clock on all the progress this genre has made since it was nothing but a timesink designed to keep people paying a monthly fee as long as possible?

Is it really necessary for me to stop everything, stand perfectly still, and do nothing for 30 seconds to a minute every 3 or 4 fights while soloing?

Also I'm aware that there is another thread with somebody who thinks it's a great idea to rewind the clock back to 2002 and add an animation to the stated change, but I don't support that topic.

Why should we stand still in this game when we can go play another game that will regen us to full after standing still for 20 seconds every 10 minutes or so?

i think a /heal would be better then standing you get more MP/HP back quicker but i'm sorry SE can't be your soloing easy they most be a timesink so sorry they most be a way to stop playing from soloing mobs none stop or even partying doing hard mobs none stop. this is not a good request please learn that they have to be a type of time sink in the game and getting mp is one of the,

use Ether, and maybe they'll add some MP Regen spell later
it's because mages can cast spells now even in passive mode, so you cant make them over powered by gaining MP all the time while fighting

ppl asked for ability to cast in passive mode, Devs gave you what you wanted but it has to be balanced and not over powered


so if your fighting a boss, make a good strategy and manage ur mp, and buy ether :x

I know of no game that allows full regen in combat, except when under the effects of some spells or special skills.

That said, every OTHER game (except FFXI) has a way to regen your HP and MP quickly when out of combat or between monsters.

Is all you need.

You don't have to repeat the same thing again as you did with MP costs, Neptune. MP costs turned out perfectly fine once people got used to them. I'm sure people will find balance within these adjustments as well.

Yes, I'm sure everyone will adapt without thinking about where this game stands in relation to the genre, the past, and competing games.

I'd like to welcome anyone else to this thread that feels (not thinks) accepting everything to come out of SE patch notes is not to be disputed. Jesus said we will always have the poor, and I feel we will always have your lot.

No, MP costs did not turn out to be perfectly fine once people got "used" to them.

- Party complete, 40-50% healers, 1 tank, 4 DPS
- Other classes wondering why they were left out
- Conclusion: PGL, MRD, and LNC have the best adaptation rates of all the classes!

Mage Strike made its point to Yoshi-P but apparently some people within the dev team are making decisions that are.. anachronistic.
