I feel like there's a difference between expressing dissatisfaction and planning a funeral, as it were. Dissatisfaction? I totally get. This mechanic doesn't feel super cool. It doesn't really add anything to the most optimal playstyle. And I probably was being hyperbolic myself when I suggested replacing Regen with Cure, I'm sorry for that.
But we've got threads now like "I'm quitting because of these WHM changes" White Mage hasn't gone down at all. Everyone else has gone up for sure, or changed 'n stuff, but White Mage isn't worse off to the point where you need to quit over it...is it?
