A Genuinely Helpful Flowchart for Whoever is in Charge of Healers

[Yuyuka3]

They're moving away from the elemental theme of WHM, that much is clear with Glare and Dia replacing Stone and Aero.

I think people need to look at potencies of things and calm down. WHM has some more instants for moving and weaving, a big nuke and the strongest potencies on its dps abilities barring 10 potency SCH is ahead on its AoE... that doesn't stun.

They aren't giving whm a direct rDPS buff but if the other healers have objectively weaker pDPS and their rDPS buffs are less impactful WHM is still capable of providing faster clear times which means better dps for the whole group.

Also, elemental weaknesses never played any part in the battle system anyway (outside those useless materia we had in the beginning), since that would give some jobs an advantage or disadvantage over others.
