    Just like RDM's vercure is extremely useful in those. There's no reason to delete Physick instead of just normalizing it - since it's such niche, it won't even have to be in people's hotbars if they don't think they'll need it.
    Yes but class balance is balanced around the fact that DPS don’t have spammable heals (outside of lost actions), RDM sorta gets away with it because it’s basically a WHM by proxy but SMN is just a barely connected origin class with SCH

    Since those activities are still balanced around BLM and phys ranged being options I still don’t really see why that necessitates bothering with physick, if you want a spammable heal in field content use lost actions, if you are worried about sustain during fate farming play a tank

    At the same time, though... why arbitrarily gut SMN Physick after level 41 (when caster and healer gear split)?

    Just like, if Bard had a healing Song that wasn't worth using in most 8-man content it still wouldn't be outright "bad" that it had it. It'd still be under the button counts of other jobs, so it's not like it'd be losing anything to get that option.
