Healer Suggestions Megathread

The same way Summon Seraph changes into two charges of Consolation currently. The accumulation of charges is hidden from the scholar (and we don’t need to see it). I am only asking for a UI change, no behavior change. 9other than losing the 1 second cooldown).

I feel like that should be possible, we have buttons that change behavior based on state on scholar and summoner.

Hmm... So in essence they are still 2 different abilities but sharing a slot, is that what you mean? I think the idea behind the abilities sharing slots is that they are still one ability. It's just that when the situation calls for it, it just changes some of its properties. Not entirely sure if charges will have an adverse effect. Ideally, it won't (and it shouldn't) but I don't personally know how the game is coded so I err to the side of safety.

Edit.. Yeah you're correct. Too stupid to realize that it is currently the case.

I kinda like Fey Blessing, to be honest, since it is an alternative for when I don't have AF stacks (for using it exclusively on Energy Drain )

What I am not fond off is Aetherpact.

In my opinion, Fey Blessing and Consolation are very good candidates for Fey Gauge spenders.

Aetherpact is a decent baindaid solution to the removal of controllable embrace casts (and is way stronger than soteria especially since you can manipulate it like applying protraction while casting it protraction will buff the entire duration), it only works because the gauge does absolutely nothing else but if they deleted it we wouldn’t lose too much outside of completely losing the ability to control embrace

[Supersnow845]

And it also used to have double the CD, 10 gauge every 120 seconds was absolutely nothing

But honestly rather delete blessing over aetherpact (especially because of the aforementioned synergy with protraction), I’d rather it actually have an expansion of its use, like say if you cast whispering dawn during aetherpact it would cast whispering dawn from both the fairy and the tethered person, the only downside in my eyes to aetherpact is the fact it monopolises the gauge because it’s rather weak power is only valid while the gauge does nothing, like if you went with some suggestions to make aetherflow give 100 gauge then all current aetherflow heals cost a particular amount of gauge then the opportunity cost of aetherpact goes through the roof

What I don't like about Aetherpact is that it forces your pet to be immobile. Tanks, especially, have a tendency to run away from anything (can't blame them thought). If the regen ticks right away upon tethering and the pet automatically follows to their tethered target, then I am fine with it.

Doesn’t artherpact now have a range of 30 yalms, if the tanks run away from that they probably aren’t even in the arena anymore

It does but I am still surprised how some tanks still manage to break the tether.

Aetherpact is dumb as hell, because if my Faerie is in range of my target, but I am not, I cannot tell her to Aetherpact them. But, if I'm in range of my target, and my Faerie is not, she flies over to my target to begin.

Fuck aetherpact. It did nothing but make SCH clunkier, like many StB era job decisions.

It may sound like it but think of it this way: you are still casting the ability yourself. It's just that where the tether originates from is different. The only problem with it is that the fairy should follow to its tethered target and not remain stationary.

Kinda bored, so here's a convoluted SGE rework idea :

Instead of "kardia" you now micromanage noulith (so 4 buttons instead of 1)
-You can affect up to 4 to a player or spread them on the party
-each still has a portion of kardia effect
-most aoe heals/attacks are centered on nouliths
-each noulith on a player increase the range by 5y but have diminishing potency return

That way you can trade power (stacking players) and range/safety (stacking noulith)

Balance would of course be an issue as it heavily depend on the group coordination ; but could be fun/rewarding I guess

While I haven't had range issues with Aetherpact, there is that one alliance raid which knocks you back far enough that it desummons Eos? That's always very annoying.

They should have added that ;
- If player gets to far away from their fairy, it will be automatically teleported to you instead of despawning.
- Same if you die , your fairy will be automatically summoned when you come back to life ,same when you change to SCH...
