    Please no Energy Drain for Sage, I don’t want another entire job mechanic to be completely dominated by a single skill. No job should have a mechanic whose sole purpose is ‘if you use me for my intended purpose you are bad at your job’

    I mean, there’s a reason people don’t use Aetherflow healing without Recitation to make it free, and it’s not because the abilities are weak lol.
    If Sage had an Addersgall dps dump you’d just never see a Sage using the Addersgall heals ever again. I mean, it’s already hard enough to get Scholars to use their massive amounts of free oGCD heals because they just Energy Drain it all away lol. And I mean, why wouldn’t they when there’s so little to heal anyway. I honestly think people would use Recitation with Energy Drain if it was possible for a dps gain.

    I really don’t want to see Sage going down the same route. I mean, if we actually had things to heal and there was any actual decision between ‘Energy Drain Equivalent’ and ‘Job Resource’ I could maybe support it. But with current encounter design anything healers have that can be used for dps must be used for dps, because really, what else are you gonna do with it lol.

    Making over-capped Addersgall convert into Addersting would be a much better way to deal with the issue. And since Toxicon II is has no MP cost, wouldn’t having more charges of it indirectly increase Sage’s MP recovery if they’re unable to use Addersgall without overhealing?
