Please buff Second Wind

[GavynG]

The heal it grants is very small for a 2-minute cooldown heal. And with a recast that long, I honestly don't think there's a good reason why it can't be more effective.

It wouldn't be imbalanced to give it a small potency buff. It's 2-minute cooldown would already keep it balanced. It's not a spammable skill like Vercure, and there's no reason why melee DPS shouldn't have a bit more survival than they currently have(plus it makes the game more fun).

So...pretty please?

Tell that to BLMs... we only have a shield. RIP Drain.

[GavynG]

Also please bring back Drain.

Second wind is good enough for what it sets out to do. It's not supposed to be some reliable self heal, it's just a small safety net when maybe that one enemy that escaped the tank is on you or you screwed up and got hit by something before a raid wide, second wind can usually save you.

Rather have the shield. Can't heal myself if I died. It was good insurance if I messed up and got vuln.

*Laughs in summoner* At level 80 our heal heals for 800hp! and titan shield requires 1 GCD to cast summon titan, and then you have to pray you have egi-assault stacks extra and they pray he decides to actually cast it in time!

Yea. I love that bird. Its not a super good hot or on demand, but he tries atleast. Unlike bahamut or the egis.

Still better than a single shield and potions. =(

I'd still like a buff so I can solo FATEs easier. Or maybe even solo PotD on not-RDM someday. It really wouldn't hurt to have this little bit of extra survivability for DPS.
