Fixing Every Healer Job

[Silver-Strider]

Snip

Well, with Dissipation no longer granting a 20% heal boost, we could probably give that to Covenant to compensate and maybe increase the mitigation from 5% to 10%. I feel that lowering the CD of Covenant 60s would also be beneficial. Still might not be enough but since most "Heal" checks in the game nowadays are mitigation checks, it would still be a buff in that department to consider.

For Seraph to work on the Gauge, her abilities would probably need to be free to cast to justify it being on the gauge at all. Having her off the gauge, depending on if Consolation cost gauge or not, would still result in a 50 gauge cost for using Angel Whisper and Seraph Illumination so I don't really seem much of a difference whether she's on or off the gauge. Personally, I think Blessing should have turned to Consolation while Seraph is out but that would mean they'd cost gauge as well so I figured having her on the Gauge and just making her skills free to cast would be a good compromise but that's just me.

I imagine Fey Blessing is weak enough to where it could be lowered to a 30s CD without much issue; It's just a weaker Indom so I don't really understand why SE put it on a 60s CD to begin with, which is even more perplexing considering it started off costing gauge as well. Being on a 30s CD would allow it to be used more than Dawn or Covenant at least so you could somewhat stem the tide of overflow but Gauge generation was something that I was unsure of on the direction of which to go with. Originally, I was more for just having Aetherflow abilities no longer build up Gauge and just having DoTs and Broil build it up since that would generate quickly enough on its own that you'd always have enough gauge to continue using your fairy abilities without much issue. However, since I knew that newer players would be somewhat apprehensive to do much DPS when starting off, it would be harder for them to heal with SCH that I sort of haphazardly kept the Aetherflow aspect of it to at least help them out a bit, despite knowing it might be a bit more than could realistically be spent in that case. It was just a matter of, do I want to give an olive branch to new players, even if it came at some level of detriment to the design. Ultimately, I chose the olive branch.
