Thread: WHM 5.0 Discussion

Afflatus Misery should be a black Lily spell of around 90% of Glare's potency, on the GCD. (Address mobility concern, isn't a straight DPS increase, doesn't decrease the potential value of Afflatus healing)

The Blood Lily should enhance it to its current iteration.

Fluid Aura should instead be an Ally / Enemy target. On allies, it should spread beneficial healing effects while on enemies it should spread harmful damage effects. (Or a role action Healer Bane)

Dia should use Aero 3's casting animation.

Temperance needs something. (Have ideas, but most of them would just turn it into a DPS cooldown)

Medica should trait into Medica 2. (Medica is mostly obsolete when Medica 2 comes around)

I'm not going to add much to this conversation.

But on the theme of Divine Seal/Largesse, not only the Wings have that healing potency buff up.
So does asylum, so we kind of get 2 Divine seals.

And while i am kind of bummed about the 2 new heals being on the global cooldown, i am still rather happy that i CAN use them on the go. Yes, i know, Tetra, bene and assize, but sometimes they're not enough if all dps just decide to start eating dirt.

It's like... it would be cool if it wouldn't be on global, but it's one of the smalles problems whm has.

I still rather wish that standing in asylum would do ANYTHING else but heal up... like speed up, or like the other 2 bubbles(sch and ast), defense up too. Anything, really.

Does this mean we're going to get it back as a level 86 skill in 6.0? I'm almost regretting buying Shadowbringers now... It's not like Repose is actually useful in anything past level 40ish content, but... I have such a hard time justifying supporting some of these changes in any way shape or form. I'm already struggling to think of what I'm going to main in Shadowbringers-- I suppose I'm most excited for Dancer and like RDM the most of the other jobs I've leveled... but man my excitement is trying to break through the floor to get into the negative numbers the closer we get to Early Access.

I'm just kind of tired of WHM being so... stagnant and seeming not to grow at all as a job. Getting cannibalized by the other healers and then force-fed parts of itself back an expansion or so later. I feel at this point I just can't level any of my healers simply because I don't want to be a positive statistic to the changes made to them in any way, shape or form.

Omg, loosing a new skill slot to that garbage skill would be a nightmare... let us hope that won't happen, though I'm kinda pessimistic about healers for a long while now <.<
And I totally get what you are saying. It's outrageous, but know what's even worse? People defending and celebrating this garbage. I'm sorry, but if your job would have gotten half their kit taken, put up for everyone to use, then taken again and then, for whatever stupid reason, given back to you at a far higher level than previously available, would you be happy as a tank or DPS? Would you? No? Then friggin' STOP TELLING US IT'S OKAY! Because no, it isn't.
