    But now that Largesse no longer fills the healing buff role and the fairy returns automatically... Dissipations usefulness has improved.
    Dissipation was bad and always will be bad as long as only 4 scholar spells are affected by the buff you get from it. Everything else we have are abilities and aren't affected.

    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]

    If you're using Dissipation to begin with, you're out of Aetherflow, meaning those spells are all you have, since you're probably about to run out of aetherflow again.

    Finally. Dissipation is to be used as a calculated move for Aetherflow or in emergencies.
