Please dont make Whispering Dawn an "Ability"

[Verrin]

SE please stop the slow SCH healing nerf of making its healing "Abilitys" & thereby making them not buffable by Fey Illumination or Convolesence, or now, more importantly BY ROUSE which lines up with Whispering Dawn, or at the very least make it 140 pot to compensate

I don't think SCH is in any danger here lol.

I think you meant to say Fey Illumination.

And honestly this may be a nerf, but it's not like we're not already pretty OP as it is. If the trade off for losing some potency is having it being instant (which means better timing for using more of the regen), personally I think it's worth the potency loss.

[Verrin]

woops, yeah, idk, i was really excited till i realized its a 20 pot per tick nerf so it leaves me kinda conflicted

[Exiled_Tonberry]

I mean, let's be honest. As far as healers go, SCH is blatantly OP. And this is not even a complete nerf, as it's usability has greatly increased now that it's a instant ability.

It's doing slightly less overall potency but I'm sure SCHs will barely feel it in combination with everything else.

[IanR]

that potency loss saddened me too, but still happy about the usability increase so i can take that.

I can’t say I like this change. The delay was only of one hot tick at most. What skill level do you need to think the trade off of instant regen for a loss of ~14% potency is worth it.
Now on a high potency regen like fey union timing has a greater impact so I can understand. But on wd which is a slow but steady hp gain, this sucks. I can think of a few mechanics that will probably require extra healing gcds now (as the current rouse+FI+wd combinations were already barely cutting it)

With all that said. SCH was and will still be in a good spot. Its really not allowed to complain about being nerfed xD. It’s just a shame that they nerf the fairy yet again.

[Sylvain]

Yeah I agree with people here, it's not a threatening nerf (potency wise) and the ability to have it pop exactly when I need it is very nice.

This is actually something that's been requested by many players on the forum, turning pet skills into abilitie to improve responsiveness.

[Tridus]

Taken together, all the changes make this fairly even. I doubt the loss will be felt much, and the other changes are nice.

(It's actually a buff for newbies, as they often won't know to always use Rouse and WD together. For the rest of us it really makes Rouse pretty meh given it only affects Embrace. Guess it's more of a SMN thing.)

[Fyce]

If Rouse only affect spells, then they should modify the tooltip to reflect that. Right now, it only mentions "healing magic potency".
