Consolidated White Mage 4.0 Feedback Thread

[Ceroes]

I am going to place some suggestions I think would add utility while keeping in heart the white mages image.

Purifying Waters
Ability
Cast: Recast: Range: Radius:
Instant 120 30y 8y

Deals water damage to all enemies near target with a potency of 600.
Additional Effect: Restores HP of target and all party members nearby target.
Cure Potency: 600
Additional Effect: Removes a single detrimental effect from target and all party members nearby.

Note: Potency could scale with the amount of lilies. In that case start at 150 for potency and when you have 3 end in 600. Recast time should remain though.

• It should cast with a visual effect similar to Terras flood in Dissidia.
• Adds a much needed powerful water spell.
• Wouldn't miss melee DPS like Cure III.
• Benefits WHM in Solo for DPS.
• Unable to single target or spam esuna yet mitigates its need.

This would honestly be the ideal use for lilies to strengthen potency

Purifying Waters

This is to Assize what Quick Nock is to Wide Volley. I'd enjoy if the effects of this were taken and distributed into the kit - like, Assize gaining potency per lilly.

Faith

Bit much for both the damage and the buff, but not bad. It'd be cool as a debuff/buff thing.

Hope
Enhanced Raise II

Hope may not be necessary, but we'll see.

Enhanced Raise II... don't think it should be both full HP/no weakness. CD that cleanses Weakness would be excellent and add incredibly rare utility.

Not bad! I'd be more interested in having WHM get Reverse, though. Stormblood is the patch where we have buttons convert, and I'd enjoy a button that'd work like Cleric Stance 2.0, but casting Cure I/II as damaging spells for Lilly procs. That'd be wonderful. Even if it had a Lilly cost to swap.

Yeah I can see the comparison with Quick Nock to Wide volley as a Bard myself. But there is a big difference both of the skills Assize and my Purifying waters are not on GCD. This makes a big difference as I would be using both Quick Nock and Wide Volley if even one of them were off the GCD. To be Honest I wanted to think of a direct attack like my version of Faith for the water element and call it Torrent but Assize is so awesome and this version of it would work well for solo play and that with all the current cuts is going to be hurting. Especially when you consider we only have Stone IV, Aero II to really do damage without killing our MP and we need more skills to make the normal grind more entertaining hence Hope and Purifying Waters.

The only thing I calculated with the damage was to make sure using it as a buff in party play outweighs its use as an attack, so those could be changed.

Hope I wanted to make it something that we currently don't have and a bandage for the loss of Stoneskin.

My main concern with the Enhanced Raise II trait was that WHM raise without weakness.

I have to be honest I don't want a Cleric stance 2.0 but it wouldn't be bad to add it as a buff. I honestly like the idea though and would rather them switch the procs to Medica II and Regen and us using them as attacks when using Reverse.
