Yet another redmage balance idea

[Shiroe]

dont give rdm a piericing debuff lol..., take that and the slashing, physical, magical and whatever debuff and change it too just "general damage debuff", making all comps work and everyone can profit from them.. (or crit, SS or healing potency)

just give Blm and Sam a (very) slight party dps debuff / buff too,..

and even if the debuffs / buffs would now apply to all (everyone profits from them), there can still be plenty of diversification between the debuffs / buffs:

some have 60, 120 etc CDs, others apply faster / instsant but are much weaker, some are directly on the target, others buff players thru an aoe (need to stack for it), others can be like a dot in the boss and needs to be reaplied, orhers like embolden decrease over time etc. etc...

some can buff crit, damage, SS (please both Spell and Skill speed) ect..

..just carefull with dhit buffs, since War cant use them much...

Tltr: even if we take away piercing, slashing, physical, magial and turn them into "general dubuffs/ bufffs", so we dont include or exclude classes anymore, debuffs / buffs can still remain something special (wont feel like every buff is the same).., just Blm and Sam need a slight one too

as for Rdm, make embolden ofc affect damage in general (not just physical and magical, but both), and maybe extend its timer by a few sec too..


as for Drg, turn the 5% piercing debuff into 2% general damage debuff (and trait, if 4 players or less are in party, the buff increases to 3% or something)

as for the rest, Brootherhood, Contagion, Slashing etc. would also ofc need some adjusting

this fix should be aimed for 5.0

(just hope a it will make "meta" more open too all, making more comps work well..., and not start a new meta with "crit buffs" and classes that give and profit from crits the most)
