Thread: Consolidated White Mage 4.0 Feedback Thread

Regen's one of the shakiest of the claims I've seen thus far. It's being reported as if it were fact over on Reddit from more than one person, so take that with however much salt you want. Could be one person misheard and it memed its way into the community, could be true.

This is true indeed. We do not yet know "what" has changed with White Mage and that is the problem. All they shown us is what we are sharing and even the show case of skills used a few role skills. It makes you wonder why they are not showing us what is new about White Mage when the other jobs did go into a bit of detail about how they changed.

Plus the fact they did say White Mage isn't changing much. Hopefully we hear more soon as I would hate to drop White Mage - I been playing it for so long and couldn't imagine wearing anything that isn't the Healer Robe!

I think a lot of you are doom-saying a little bit too much before even getting to know more about the new core mechanics of WHM. I'd wait to hear more about the job's flower-based stuff before jumping to conclusions. The fact that Protect, Divine Seal, Esuna and Cleric are now in role skills means that either WHM can get new skills that come with utility or mitigation (or both), or that the other healers are losing skills too, since they want to avoid hotbar cluttering. Particularly in the case of Divine Seal, since it is a job action, this means WHM DEFINITELY is gonna get something to replace it.

Stone IV was an obvious addition since all healers need an updated potency nuke to keep up with DPS (which will replace Stone I/II/III in our hotbars, as well as Ruin and Broil, yay!) so I don't see why anyone would complain there...

I know their comments weren't exactly uplifting, but don't go so far as to bury WHM just yet, have a little faith in your main job .

Btw, the fairy tether makes me think Scholar's healing output through Eos is getting a rather heavy handed nerf, so there's that at least? lmao. The fact that they decided to showcase AST's cards with Arrow instead of Balance makes me suspect Balance might be reworked somehow... but we'll see.

This is what I think has happened.

None of this looks like Regen to me.

I can't read the name of the Divine Seal lookalike, but the one that looks like a colour swapped version of Shroud is the skill called "Lucid Dream" (Ruushidodoriimu), if my kana don't fail me completely... the one below is the new E4E.

So we keep repose but not stoneskin and our main mana regen ability has been removed (possibly cross classed). Im only seeing four new abilities which makes me wonder if thats all we get this time around or if theres some new passive we get thats not on display?

I expected WHM to not be so good in SB honestly, but to completely gut them like this...

I'm trying to get caught up..so do we know what barrier does?

From the looks of it, I'll still be playing White Mage..guess we will have to wait to see how good or bad it is.
