Positive New Trends

[Chiramu]

For me I've been seeing a lot of tanks with Pacification macros to let us healers know when to be ready with Esuna/leeches.

You should pay more attention to the party list being a healer . As for positive new trends? I don't know of any :/.

As a healer and not someone who uses Warrior all that much, I don't actually *know* the icon for Berserk off the top of my head, and by the time I notice the Pacification icon, it's usually too late anyways, especially if you were casting something else when Berserk went down.

As a healer you look at the party list all the time. I do not play warrior and I am terrible at warrior but I esuna asap.

Yes, I use my 1 second cast time Leech to knock off the 1 second left on the timer Pacification.

Constantly.

Because I'm usually mid-cast for something else when I notice the 5-second Pacification debuff pop up.

It's not really necessary for the healer to remove the pacification effect anyway. It is so brief that it really doesn't cause any problems unless you use berserk at bad times. By the time the debuff hits I've got threat locked on me and I'm not going to lose it in those 5 seconds, and if you are in a fight with a mechanic coming up that you need full use of your abilities to handle, you just need to plan the use of berserk around that.

There are times in serious-ish content where if I don't want to get esuna'd right away. If I'm off-tanking and trying to put out the sick deeps I'll start dipping low into my TP and that five second break really helps sometimes. It's only at those times though that I see healers on top of that and Esuna me right away. Where are they at when I'm MT'ing???

Okay, I'm not a warrior main, but...

Why *wouldn't* Warriors do this? The few times I do play Warrior I cycle BB combo-Storm's Path combo-BB combo-Storm's Eye combo once I am sure I have hate. Is that really that uncommon?

I know of a Tank (and I won't say who) who to this day I have no clue what he does. Never seen Storm's Path up. Rarely see Storm's Eye up except for big moments and I know he's not spamming Butcher's Block since he would be pulling hate. Rarely even ever saw Maim up and thinks his only worthwhile CD's are Inner Beast and Vengeance. So he's not using his attacks, not putting up CD's and not really doing much of anything. Still not sure what he actually does.

ON TOPIC: I'm seeing a lot more people in the 24 man raids playing their jobs really well. Playing songs as a Bard and Ninja's goading people. Makes my heart all warm and fuzzy.

Something positive...

Triple Triad has encouraged people into other zones a bit more, which is nice

[Aivi_lo]

More pfs are appearing which are pony & card farms where you cycle through the fights rather than just Farming one

Tanks like these are the reason I have to actually go out of my way to tell healers not to Esuna me after Berserk. I need my TP back. D:

Are you also the Warrior who keeps Storm's Eye up so the Ninjas can kill faster? And keeps Storm's Path up to make things easier for the healers?

It's sad, but the really good Warriors are still rare enough that I like to stop and thank them during a run. So if that's you, thank you.
