Consolidated White Mage 4.0 Feedback Thread

Is there an Even Earlier Access that allowed you to play the jobs at 70 already?

Worked for AST. They could heal through content at 3.0, as WHM will be able to do at 4.0 but people complained, look at them now.

At the risk of pulling the elitist card, you healed early Gordias Savage progression in the first few weeks as AST then right? The lack of a Gobwalker has me dubious here =(

AST got buffed because SE were incredibly cautious with it at release and it was undertuned in a multitude of ways, it had agro creep issues in aoe heavy fights, it needed to hoard CDs and cards just to keep up with MP, it's HPS burst was limited and highly problematic in early savage, even Ewer and Spire were watered down to nigh irrelevance at the jobs release. The buffs were required to get the job widely used, it's just they took it a little too far in some aspects (Specifically Balance, and arguably it's MP regen).

Don't need to play when you know all the skills. Moving around and pressing them doesn't change how they work.

SAM is the new MNK actually. Zero raid utility!

[AlphaSonic]

Wrong things.

Do you know how it works the ability?

The ability works that when you use it. It heals for the amounts of Confession stacks a person has. If the tank is the only one that has Confession stacks, it will be the only one that gets healed. It's not an AoE heal. The AoE is for triggering the ability. 30 yards means that if the tank that has Confession stacks is 31 yards far from you, it won't get healed.

That's how bad it is the ability. It's not an AoE heal. It's only a heal that you will use on the tank because the rest of the party will get healed with Medica and Medica II.

First off, you only build these resources off of Cure and Cure II. Your very BASIC heals. The secondary stat being even worse because only the person you heal gets a confession stack, meaning people without confessions stacks simply aren't healed.

How is this any good at all? It's locked behind way too much RNG that requires you to slam the most basic heals. Meanwhile both SCH and AST gets massive utility updates. Do you have any idea what this is going to do to their raid relevance? Hell they're not even fun to play in dungeons at this rate.

Alright. I don't main healer, so I'll concede to an extent. But I would personally prefer the new self buffs to the new utilities that the others get. It's just an opinion, but people going as far as to say delete WHM or it's useless? Come the %#*^ on. No one is going to turn down a healer.

Remember when HW launched and everyone said WAR was useless because they just got a bunch of DPS skills, but they're amazing?
Remember when AST and SCH were both "underpowered" so they buffed them?
I'm sure WHM will surprise a lot of people. If not, then they'll be readjusted when enough people don't stop complaining.

Did anyone really think that this was going to go any other way? Besides hopeful thinking? This is just detestable. SE has lost their way... completely.

[Snat]

we're not even going to be able to have Swift cast if we want ALL our old skills.

Yep. Why I still think come 4.1 we will have 10 slots for role skills xD

Considering you're over on the tank forum whining about drk, and we know in HW plds and whms were refused parties for high end content, do you think that maybe, just maybe people will be turning down whm? No I'm sure everyone is going to prefer pure overheal potency to party wide damage buffs and high utility while maintaining almost the exact same heal potency.

Savage clear in north america = something like less than 2% or was it 10%?


Why does raid savage utility matter?
