MNK stack 491 just to get to 2.00 at 3 GL stacks.
    the fairy buff lowers my global from 2.44 to 2.33

    i have no idea what number it could possibly be multiplying by 30% to make that happen... what seems to be going on is that it's tripling your current gcd reduction from gear (best guess)

    greased lightning actually does what it says it does, reduces your global by 5% per stack (although it uses your global after gear is taken into account.. meaning it scales inversely with skillspeed)

    tldr - fairy buff is way way way worse than advertised. (in my case .11/2.44 is like 4.5%)

    Oh my, that's... pretty broken, haha. I can't imagine they would want it based on bonus only, but you are right that the numbers do suggest that it's tripling an existing bonus. I can fiddle with the magic version and see.

    WAR and PLD have identical eHP, and that isn't changing.

    I believe it was decided earlier that PLD still have slightly more healing (25% healing received +), even if identical eHP
