Jobs Moving Forward

I just have to give the ultra casuals a round of applause. Going to stick with these basic classes and get no significant changes because that would be too hard. They even mentioned they were afraid of making Reaper too difficult.

Yeah I caught that. Which is a bit strange considering what SMN was as opposed to what it looks like it is now. (The complete opposite). But I still stand by my initial statement

It doesn't look like much is even changing with SCH at all and SCH is fine right now.

[Minsue]

Your correct it boils down to it didn't get super flashy stuff sch is sch.

Broil spam goes brrrr

[Seraphor]

That's great. And now they HAVE added one and everyone is losing their collective shit because SCH was destroyed in the process. So the customer doesn't always knwo what's best. This should teach them.

And if SGE turns out great, what am I learning exactly?

Sage is the type of healing class that FFXIV needed for a while now. A class that does damage and healing simultaneously is a nice shake up with how to heal in the game rather than "This is a healer who has more damage buttons". The problem isn't that there are too many healers, the problem is that SE doesn't seem to know how to incorporate healers into the game. There are more healing specs, and more variety in healing specs, in WoW and it's not even close.

Blaming this on the consumer is incorrect in this instance. Healing in FFXIV has been incredibly boring for a while, and if this is SE's version of Discipline Priest than the good FAR outweighs the bad for the new expansion.

As a RDM main, please don't do this. :')

I second this.

You can already do damage while healing someone with a macro like this.

/action "Stone" <t>
/action "Stone" <tt>

You can do the reverse and heal someone while a boss is your target and a player is your focus target.

/action "Cure" <t>
/action "Cure" <f>
/action "Cure" <0>

You could also make these do the last target with <lt> or you can make it heal the main tank with <tt>.

It seems pointless for this to be presented as a unique feature of Sage.
