RPR is so overpowered right now that it's completely unfair. They are top damage and have party buffs. They should not be near the top. Certainly not beating SAM, MNK, or BLM.

Simple potency changes are all that's needed for most of these issues. It's not rocket science.

I hear you, and agree with PLD needing the increase. That baffles me that wasn't part of this patch. RPR getting toned down though will come in x.10. This is the first they've nerfed anything in a x.05 post release patch, hence my point on checking out the patch cycles.

The decreases generally come once they have savage logs to look at. This first patch is for really large glaring issues that the devs feel need addressing right this second. To them, the ones we got were the top priority going into the first bit of savage content.

Why would they nerf Sage? Currently in high-end content they're 4th in Healing Per Second. Scholar beats Sage by 1%.

Can’t wait for week 1 DNC/RPR healer parties. Do the devs just genuinely not care that an entire role in their game is defunct? Like literally functionless lol.

Also Summoners are literally going to be banned from going into raids by most statics. I mean, it brings literally nothing a Red Mage doesn’t and has way less dps. SMN has ‘mobility’ I guess but lol at the ‘mobility’ argument.

Also maybe I’m wrong but the fact there are 0 healer changes whatsoever besides Fey Union being longer range means White Mage and Astrologian are out and Scholar + Sage is the new meta pair. Astrologian has cards so it can at least argue ‘but muh rDPS’ and then the static healers have to fight to the death, loser takes AST. White Mage may as well be invisible at this point. What exactly is it supposed to offer? Dps? That’s Sage. Raid buffs? Nope, that’s Astrologian. Defensive buffs? Scholar. But it’s ok because Litany of the Bell will clearly make White Mage a top pick for Savage (sarcasm)

Astrologians currently have the highest Healing Per Second, and the lowest DPS of the healers.

White Mage is 2nd in HPS.

Scholar, then Sage.

I did not expect the snow white dye to have such a drastic change. I tried on the savage fending chest piece and it turns black on the blue parts.

If Reaper is overpowered, so is Monk and Red Mage.
