A summary of healer issues

[Aravell]

It’s incredibly rare they remove capstone skills and removing a healing amplifier that’s also a damage tool from level 60 and “returning” it at level 100 is something I doubt they will do

It's actually highly likely that they'll delete both Dissipation and Energy Drain, all in the name of ease of use, because both those abilities are being complained about non-stop.

They can also just point at SGE as justification and say "See? You don't need to have Energy Drain, quit your whining".

Anyway, if they deleted both those skills, I'm done with the role permanently. Deleting Energy Drain means they think healers shouldn't be required to make choices, and deleting Dissipation would mean they don't believe in paying a cost to receive a benefit. That doesn't sound like a healer design I want to invest time into anymore.

They'll probably removed Synastry too, god forbid AST's have an interesting button which could become much more useful in non-emergency scenarios with one single change. But they'll probably delete it, since they love never building on healers but just take away

[Kissune]

I wouldn't be surprised if they just turn dissipation into a generic heal amp that doesn't kill fairy. It may or may not give AF either. But I also expect it to just upgrade into Seraphism, and be a weaker version of it until then.

The though of dissipation being a “weaker” version of Seraphism is terrifying given it’s already the strongest healing buff in the game

By 'weaker' I mean just a heal amp, no extra stuff added to the other abilities. Effectively turn it into a less interesting neutral sect with no opportunity cost, decision making, or reward for optimizing aetherflow usage.

Which is exactly why I expect it to happen :P

Oh I know I mean if they make seraphism an improvement over dissipation with no opportunity cost what are they going to add to seraphism to make that upgrade worth it. That’s the scary part

Adding some instacasts to GCD shields as a level 100 capstone of a level 60 skill seems weak, are they going to buff the healing amplifier further, that’s the scary part

Interestingly enough it seems like the very act of activating Seraphism is not an oGCD, at least judging by the fact that there is no teal whoosh effect in the trailer. So it's a GCD that makes your GCDs instant and presumeably more potent.

100 capstone is gonna be dissipation upgrade to seraphism.

Effect reads. Upgrading dissipation to seraphim’s and lets the fairy stay active while using this ability.

Would be hilarious and mega sad if they do stuff like this.

It is quite likely not to be an oGCD.

Then again, today's Afflatus Misery also have that windy teal VFX on their caster when used despite being a GCD, hence one of the examples of outliers in that case. So who know. :shrug:

Might be because the Afflatus skills are always instant, even if they're technically GCDs.
I can't be bothered to check but what VFX does Aspected Benefic have?
