Consolidated White Mage 4.0 Feedback Thread

Reporting in after hitting 70. Initial thoughts.

I'm noticing lilies accumulate often enough with the higher outgoing damage of dungeons and primals, but this could change with better gear - meaning MedII and Regen will replace a bulk of the Curing. I still kinda wish lilies had a passive effect, especially when you have all 3 lilies and every ability they affect is on CD.

My major sticking point with WHM is the Confession system. I like the idea behind Plenary a lot, but the duration on Confessions needs to be much longer/preferably removed, or the proc chance needs to be much higher. I've gone long periods without getting any Confessions even when chain casting Cure/Cure II, or I get 3 stacks in 3 Cures, not use Plenary because the tank is topped off, and if there are no more immediate spikes of damage, they will often fall off by the time I want them.

I would also love to see Cure III being able to apply Confession even with a lower proc chance - giving Plenary a bit of aoe potential without having to single target Cure everyone.

Edit: Additionally, tracking multiple Confession stacks on different people is annoying because we are unable to see the duration with the party interface. And though I haven't personally ran into this yet, double WHM in DF apparently can't differentiate their own Confession stacks without having to target the individual manually.

PS: Thin Air is great. Bension is pretty good with its 30s CD though needing a lily is a bit hard to plan for (i.e. topping up a tank before a buster using Tetra, thereby spending all lilies, and oops no more Bension).

Remember when they said they were designing all these job gauges so you wouldn't have to look at the buff bars to figure out what your skills are going to do? Whoever was designing PI and Confession stacks didn't get the memo.
