Re-done White Mage rework - re-explained

[Phileas]

Some of this stuff...is a bit over the top. Like not only having divine Benison apply shield and increased healing along with holy lowering enemy damage? It would be very broken. I would reconsider attempting to tie things like medica2 regen effect to damage spells as that type of link makes little sense to me. Particularly when medica 2 is currently on tap and having to dps to use it is making it unnecessarily clunky...

I think for me white mage needs more flavour that isn’t tied to pure healing as that isn’t working for it in 3.0 or 4.0. Sch Shields are so strong in this game that they almost trump the need for a pure healer type (which is why ast is seen as the best partner for sch). I don’t know what sort of flavour white mage should have...I don’t envy the team that are reworking healers lol

The Benediction thing is ridiculous, anyone who saves it specifically to use it as an emergency panic button is using it wrong.

But still an unstable skill. Losing bane is so annoying.

Since you love so much to talk about WHM, stick to one thread only.
We don't need dozen of those especially when when it's from the same OP.

I didn't read most of the thread; I just want to say that it's post like this that are the reason that the devs are just ignoring all the white mage feedback they get here on the forums. There's 100 different people saying 100 different things and 98% of it is ridiculous.
