    It took a long time for SCH to get balanced after SB was released, so I'm kinda hoping the same thing doesn't happen to it come Shadowbringers.
    Wait, Eos' WD doesn't benefit from Rouse anymore? When was that change made?

    When it was changed to an Ability; Rouse only benefits Spells, after all. The base potency was increased to compensate somewhat, raising the Rouse-less value but falling short of its value with Rouse.

    Correct. A Roused, Illuminated Whispering Dawn was really strong.

    Now it's just kinda meh.

    Still better than anyting Selene brings to the table though.

    Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
    Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
    Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
