I'm sorry but Protraction was just an insult. Even at min ilvl this ability hardly adds much to your shields. Honestly I'd just love to see Expedience have at least a 15 second duration because I feel like on Rubi EX the in-out-in mechanic is too long for the speed boost to get value. With that being said, the ability is still pretty fine; definitely low on the priority list to fix this job.Seraph would have more meaning if skills like Fey Illumination and Whispering Dawn got buffs too. But they only get pretty icons so pressing a button for Seraph just to only get consolation is pretty meaningless. I use Dissipation in content when I want the extra energy drain stacks but nothing outside of that. Fey Blessing is really pointless, I use indom before Fey Blessing and Fey Blessing is a free skill. I think Protraction is a really solid skill. It doesn't feel like that now because we are at an item level where some skills don't feel the same as they did when we were initially running with them. But the number of times Protraction has added to shielding is incredible. I feel like expedient needs more of a rework then protraction. I also love to see quickened aetherflow. or something that reworks the aether stacks.
I'll give healer a try up until level 100. If I do not like it, I'm off the role, entirely.Was this what Yoshi P wanted for people like me? Did he assume we were too foolish to take any semblance of complexity? How could such an allegedly open developer act so dismissive towards his own players? The flavor of the jobs I loved so much throughout the franchise were mere husks of themselves. What was once a magical world peeled away to reveal a sterile room of four walls. No imagination, no challenge, only accessibility for the sake of it. I didn't feel welcomed, I felt betrayed.
Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
