Deleting the skill would be a buff at this point.

Nothing new there.

Was being facetious. As neat as the number boost is, it sorta missed the point. Atonement is still worthless, and we're still saddled with that ridiculous opener. DRK and GNB will continue to be chosen over PLD time and time again while WAR carves out its own little niche in the background because of that whole not needing heals thing.

It'd be great if it grants the DRG the ability to yoink their target, too.

Nin and drg are still a bit lower than they should be but it's a step in the right direction, also lol ast.

PLD very much needed the buff, though I'm not sure if it's even enough yet, I don't math. Just, I'm not a fan of bursts so I was more hoping for potency increases all over the board, not a burst.

Happy about DRG, except for losing the animation, no more "I choose you!".

I don't know how significant BLM and SMN changes are, but I just hope they don't make RDM useless again outside of resbot, in comparison.

I don't get why people are saying DRK should have been there too. This was just potency buffs, and the last thing DRK needs is higher dps. It does need adjustments, but certainly not in this category.

Yeah that's pretty much why Yoshi P said this is just a numbers change recently. How ever it is rather disappointing as in previous expansions have had major changes to address class issues by now, and so far we have only gotten mostly minor and some major potency buffs here and there.

Healing potency is still potency. And no buffs of the sort are to be found. DRK and Healers are fine.

Lots of interesting decisions this xpac. It's going to be such a show. 6.1 will be the real contest.

Isn't it also because the issues are not as big this time around? Can't remember really how bad it was in previous expansions...

It's around how it normally is. War is broke AF and several classes under performing and/or dealing with some jank.
