Tell me you have zero idea how sage works without telling me you know how sage works.I still wish people would stop promoting this idea that healers should have a toolbox full of DPS options. They are not monks, and the one healer we do have right now, Sage, does work this way, and it's not what people wanted, apparently. And if they do too much DPS, then they will be the only option allowed in raid statics.
Outside of Phlegma, Sage's DPS rotation is just like the other healers. A 30s dot and a filler spell.
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]




And phlegma isn’t exactly a unique buttons it’s just SGE’s fluff extra damage spell like assize, energy drain or earthly star
Depending on how much of your aetherflow you spend on energy drain SGE can have the lowest proportion of its actions not be its dot or nuke or second last to SCH
