    And as I stated, I am going to wait for more phantoms. As if they implement all the FF5 jobs as shards, that is 26 stacks of phantom mastery or 52%. If we exclude Blue Mage and Beastmaster for whatever reason, that is 48%. And since damage buffs are multiplicative, that is going to add up very fast.

    And that’s what’s I’m saying

    Extra damage from phantom mastery won’t help forked because you don’t wipe in forked to enrage and bosses don’t die till they have done all their mechanics

    As a healer main in this game for nigh on 14 years all I can say is that I’m tired. My role has been eroded of complexity and expression for 3 expansions. I’ve watched the tanks do my role for me for 2 expansions and my feedback and critiques continue to fall on deaf ears.

    I have no idea who modern healers are designed for but I know now it’s not me. This is the first expansion I’m truly considering dropping the healer role and not returning, so if that was the goal- congratulations I guess

    Okay, so why are you arguing with me? My point is more phantom mastery means bosses die quicker. Its the same rhetoric is as if I told you I will do content later when I am overgeared.

    As if they implement the remaining 13 phantoms, that is 52%. A dragoon will have 111% damage buff from mastery and their own self-buffs. Meanwhile their current total is 39% with phantom mastery. Or black mage for example, with 26 mastery, that equates to them having a 93% damage buff, where as their current amount is 57%.

    That math does not factor in buffs from other party members or debuffs applied onto the boss such as silver cannon or ninja's trick attack.

    Which if the bosses die quicker, they will do less of their mechanics.

    Because if you read the last sentence of my post you’ll see “the bosses don’t die till they have done their mechanics”

    As in they lock on 0.1% hp till their mechanics are done, well at least dead stars and magitaur do

    Do you think they're going to give us a raidewide Reraise action or something? I don't understand what could possibly make instadeath mechanics easier.
