Geomancer Idea

[Rivxkobe]

I don't understand why people want/think GEO would be a healer if it was added. It has only ever been a support once, and it had no healing, every other iteration has been full damage with status effects.

Your suggestions are also really...

You HoT would NEVER work with the system in place, and Water I is a 720 potency heal? Seems legit.

And don;t even get me started on "Tidal II".

Just as an example:
Quake - Target an ally and place a quake on them. For the next 10 seconds, all enemies around the target will take unaspected 100 potency damage. All emnity generated from Quake is transferred to the target.

Eolian - For the next 15 seconds, all allies within x yalms can cast while moving.

Eruption - For the next 30 seconds, Stone I, II, III, IV become Igneous. Striking the target for 50% additional damage, leaving behind Magma. Magma - A damage over time effect for 10 seconds. When Magma expires, the target bursts into flames dealing 500 potency damage. (I don't... How at all is this even close to being even half balanced)

Germination - Increases the healing magic potency of all yourself and all party members by 50% for 10 seconds. Effect does not stack with Largesse.

Rock Armor - Infuse a targeted ally with Rock Armor, reducing all damage taken by 20% for 15 seconds. Effect does not stack with Bole.

Magma Armor - Infuse a targeted ally with Magma Armor, increasing all damage dealt by 20% for 15 seconds. Effect does not stack with Balance.

Water Armor - Infuse a targeted ally with Water Armor, increasing healing received by 20% for 15 seconds.

This is why most players should never have a say in balance. Y'all suck at it.

With regards to the potencies: I am going to assume the disclaimer at the top was completely ignored. In case you missed it, I clearly stated that potencies may not be balanced. The idea I was trying to convey with Water I and II was an initial, decent heal, followed by a mediocre HoT to supplement. The direction I was wanting to go with this class was a few basic healing abilities, enough to complement the other healer and stand-alone in dungeons, but their purpose would be to primarily buff the group in a variety of ways. While some are duplicates of Astro buffs (magma armor and rock armor), some are new and exclusive with GEOs (Eolian, Quake, Eruption). It was just a fun idea I had. I'm not on the dev team, so you don't have to worry about me stealing your spot in the raid, homie. Fun fact: None of us have a say in balancing. If we did, Scholars and White Mages would have everything they've ever wanted by now. The dev team will balance jobs how THEY want to. Not how you or I want them to. But thanks for your feedback. I will take it into consideration.
