    Essential Dignity nerfed?

    I've recently noticed that the potency increase in Essential Dignity when the targets hp is low seems to be lessened. In my experience, it used to be that when the tank's hp was really low, like near 10%, ED would heal him almost to full, almost as powerful as a Bene. But now it seems to heal only a little bit more than minimum, it's hardly worth it as an emergency heal anymore.

    Is anyone else noticing this or do I just have a faulty memory?

    I don't remember any changes made to ED in any patch.
    Probably have to do with the healing potency not scaled with the Tank's HP compare to when HW started or that you're only looking at a Crit ED heal most of the time.

    Question. Were you in POTD when you noticed this lower potency? If so, that is why. You are not anywhere near full gear strength in POTD.

    Well tanks HP scaling up may make it seem weaker. Gotta remember that Essential is a potency based spell. If your gear is not increasing, but the tanks HP is, You're going to heal for less.

    Well that was slightly unnecessarily rude, but thank you for your input anyway.



    I do usually heal in potd, that's true, and that might have colored my experience. But healing outside it also seems different. It's true that I haven't kept up with my gear as much as on other jobs, but it's still somewhere around the 230s and I do have a Kinna weapon. Does that really make such a difference?

    What Martin said, don't ask "do I have a faulty memory" if you don't want someone to confirm it hehehe

    It's like posting a picture of something and asking the internet to photoshop fix it...

    Meh they could have phrased it in a less rude way but I guess that's what you get for being self deprecating lol.

    Don't take this as rude, cause i don't mean it to be, this is honest to god genuine advice. You need some thicker skin. This is, the internet. And that was wan't "rude". I've seen rude. Hell I've been rude. If that genuinely bothered you, you maybe want to stay away from online anonymous social media. It gets a lot worse. LOL
