Yoshi-P: "If you want more engaging content, go play Ultimate"

It also doesn’t help that this was a problem entirely of their own making when they made the range of ogcd heals larger because they decided to make the hit boxes of the bosses huge now. The only time where the hit boxes are small now are Criterion Dungeons.

Did anyone actually want massive AOE’s, it is so unsatisfying

Healers who were pissed at DPS standing in narnia missing the heals.

The reason they're huge right now is that reason.

[*]Have Earthly Star starts at 8y radius on first 10s. At 11s-19s, let the star grow to 12y. Finally at 20s let the star explodes on its own at 20y radius.

What would you think about having it the reverse? Earthly Star shrinks from 20y to 10y with healing scaling from low to high.

I would still take it over today’s Galaxy Star.

The point is, it used to be satisfying to:

• You know where the boss will move when you need to drop your Earthly Star? You drop it there.
• You know where the party will move to when resolving X mech? You drop it there.
• You’re going to miss a use but nothing to heal? Okay free damage but let’s just drop it for the tank.

The list goes on. Can you just <t> macro the star back then? Of course. You won’t get the freedom of executing those listed situations if that’s what you’re solely depending on. It’s not optimal. But still viable.

Today? One really has to consciously try to dodge the star if they don’t want to get its heal for whatever reason.

On some arenas the only way to dodge a centered star is to run into the death wall. Great ability if you are a professional surveyor though.

In light of the recent comment on how Yoshi P regrets on how stress-free the game is, another good point to bring this up again.

It's good that he acknowledges the sentiment, it's still up in the air how much they'll actually act on it. For all we know, he had that realization 10 hours before the interview, and DT's design/'stress-free levels' are locked in as being EW2 level

Need the media tour info to see what, if anything, has been adjusted with this in mind

Game needs more Esuna checks in more instances.

Game needs more Esuna checks in more instances.

Something I've been saying for literally years is that we need to modernize and update the UI for debuffs that can be Esuna'd. A teeny-weeny little white bar above the already microscopic buff/debuff icons doesn't cut it. Something like how FFXII's debuffs have an overlay atop the afflicted party member's HP that flickers, cycling through all debuffs currently on the target for example. The only debuffs that appear this way are ones that can be cleansed with Esuna. You can even add other visual indicators that XII has like applying a color filter to the afflicted character (purple for poison, black for blind, etc.) and having the icon appear above their head.

If we communicate debuffs to the player far more clearly, that gives us a lot more leeway into making debuffs matter more. Bard would certainly appreciate Warden's Paean being a regularly utilized piece of utility.

Bringing this back up to the front page again with the Daily reminder that Yoshi P and his team are clueless when it comes to healers.
