The buff drops off over time. And in most fights BLM gives more damage than RDM's damage + rDPS. Its the same logic of taking a monk over a bard for speedkills; the pure damage outdoes the rDPS provided.
It provides okay damage.
Why...why in Hydaelyn's name would you EVER want a RDM to use Vercure in a raid? No. Just...no.offheals,
BLM can come close to rivaling this with their triplecast and swiftcast, between the lines, and aetherial manipulation. They have more options for getting out of danger and then back into their comfort zone. RDM's dualcast is nice, and we have a gap closer and opener that even do damage...on a 35/40 second cooldown. This is important because then RDM has to decide to keep a 260 potency every 40 seconds, or save the CDs for keeping themselves safe in the midst of mechanics. Not to mention that sprint consumes swiftcast.great mobility
Yeah I'm tired of instant raises too. Kind of hope they change that so people stop whining about it.instant raises,
I'm sorry, at no expense? We're RDM, not BLM. We have a finite pool of mana, with one refresh, and if we're expected to manashift AND rez then...you're relying too much on RDM as your healer bitch and not as a dps, and it's NOT going to be doing dps worth anything really.manashifts at no expense,
It's a .75% rDPS increase. Less than one percent of the total rDPS. TOTAL. Contagion would make a caster comp a better choice if SMN weren't borked.buffs physical party composition dps as well as itself ergo the only acceptable meta party composition
Have you seen the rankings for savage parses? RDM does not wipe the floor with BLM, and both RDM and BLM wipe their noses with SMN in almost every fight but V3S where SMN comes close to God.It wipes the floor with SMN and BLM.
It's straightforward, not "no skill".Will always have a spot and even better it's a no skill job.
So you're willing to hold your Inner Release long enough for me to line up my double emboldened verfinisher? Very kind of you. The first embolden I use to line up with opener buffs but every emboldenfy I use past that is specifically to optimize my own damage.
