It also requires party members to be nearby. Oh, but 10% increased healing. So the only time it's useful/usable is when a boss is untargetable. Otherwise it's a huge DPS loss to use it, right? As an ability, it's pretty bad. As the CAPSTONE Lv. 80 ability?? It's downright awful.
    Yeah, I found it pretty underwhelming too. The Esprit gain is too little to be reliable. Currently the real use I have to this is after a big aoe, to help healers top people off. That's our big 80 ability? Feels really... meh.

    I'd just simply add Esprit at a fixed pace, a reliable one tbh, but touching the ogcd starvation issue from DNC, I would also make feathers proc through the duration.

    Improvisation is only really useful as Esprit gain if you can commit to it for the full duration. That's such a rare luxury. Unless the boss is doing something that makes it untargetable, it's a big DPS loss for us to sit there for 15 seconds doing nothing. It'd be better if it looked like RDM's Manafication. Just double the current amount of Esprit and Feathers.
