6.1 Patch Notes

[Recon1o6]

So, here's a question. Do the MP cost reductions to Aero and Stone carry over when it upgrades to Dia and Glare? If the level 90 spells are still as expensive, I'm not so sure the MP issue has been fixed at all.

Misery being able to hit 60s raid buff windows now is huge, though. Though it's DPS-neutral on its own, being able to hit the raid buffs will make it DPS-positive.

no they dont, i checked the job guide, they are still 400mp

Hm. Guess we'll see if 3 lilies per minute is enough to offset that...

It's only a gain in 1 Lily per minute, and only if you're GCD healing. Misery is damage neutral now, but is that enough to justify pausing attacks to use Lilies?

Yes, you can freely use lilies as long as you have not completed charging Misery, or you can ignore lilies and overcap if you don't need them for movement or healing. The loss now would be if you had Misery ready but used a lily heal instead; or you did not enter the 2min party burst window with a Misery charge ready. Whether you use your lilies or let them overcap does not matter as long as you avoid those two things.

No they haven't. Yes these are some positive changes but there's still various problems in the healers and the nerf to expedient was unneccesary.

I wish, they've listened for once but we still have loads of problems, remember we are still a class that spams 1 button as much as tanks autoattack

I get where you guys are coming from, and yes these changes don't "fix" healers but short of more fundamental reworks, which we were not going to get in this patch I don't think anything will. Yeah there are a few things that are missing like combining some of ast's buttons that really shouldn't be separate but we got a lot of good fixes for what they are and I think credit should be give where credit is due. I stand by what I said and frankly, if we aren't willing give credit where credit is due when SE gives us changes that we want, why should they listen to us at all. At least that's how I see it.
