Thread: Healing responsibilities after 1.20

@ OP:
The reason CON has some nukes is for being able to solo primarily. It will naturally be geared to be a healer/buffer, therefore an ability that allows it to shift to a more offensive stance when not fulfilling that position in a party - so it doesn't fail incredibly on nukes.

THM is clearly being geared to nuking as a purely DPS mage class. Expecting heals from THM will be silly post 1.20 as they can only cross-class Cure, but not Cura or Curaga.

This isn't the case now. WHM/Conj will heal in a party/raid situation. Outside of soloing or farming I don't believe any nukes will be coming from this job/class. Also, thm/blm is stronger nukes... conj/whm nukes would be waste of MP to heal.

As stated above though, the CON nuke combos provide highly useful debuffs on the enemy,

Increased damage towards the target and increased accuracy towards the target. landing those nukes at the start of a big fight could make a huge difference to the DPS dealt during the fight

I know THMs will be adding those to their bars

I doubt they will, as combos can only be performed by the class that owns the abilities. Also, each of the 2nd Tier Con nukes are class-exclusive.

Those are debuffs, not nukes. The same can be accomplished by food, and other skills. I doubt these will be used by conj.

There are only two things conj need to do in a party, Cure and Stoneskin (or whatever it's gonna be called. Revive is just cure from 0).

To see that's what Conjurer's been reduced to makes me sad.

Reality Bites.
