    Don't forget how exciting a small potency upgrade is. It's a literal gamechanger.

    When I saw that we were going from Broil III at 290 potency in ShB to Broil IV at 295 potency in EW, I was shaking with how excited I was. I couldn't believe they were so generous with a whole 5 potency. I'm going to probably scream in excitement when 7.0 comes out and Broil V hits 300 potency, playing SCH going to be WILD once it hits 300!!!

    I'm sorry I found this funny, I know I shouldn't but honestly it was well done. I wish we could vote you in to ask questions in a live letter.

    These are the same designers that worked on new animations for Holy 3 (skipping Holy 2), and slapping a whopping TEN whole extra potency on it.

    This is the kind of stuff they come up with. It's like they were done with everything else and were like, well sh!t, we didn't do anything with WHM.

    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]

    To be fair, that mostly just comes from III (-Ga) generally being the empowered version in naming conventions, and II (-Ra) instead being an AoE.

    Why they followed that convention suddenly for Holy and Glare, yet not for Broil and Malefic before, though... well, that's a mystery.

    I understand why they did it, but like you said, the inconsistency is what is questionable. It's less about the name and more about the lazy implementation and the semi-insulting potency they tacked onto it.

    -Ga/III shouldn't mean... "plus a tickle"?

    Hmm, what i wish for is that those evolved skills get more than just potency. Synergy or some kind of reward when used in a certain way and not only just dps... or atleast not a 10 potency increase.
