Dissipation Rework

[rawker]

The problem with that is after the ED nerfs, 3 of them amounts to a whopping single extra broil for losing all of the passive healing for 30 seconds.

To be fair, the intention was that ED was to use up any unused stacks whenever Aetherflow is off cooldown. We'll just have to wait and see what they will do in Dawntrail if they'll buff ED's potency to be neutral with (probably) Broil V, in terms of potency. Using all stacks of Aetherflow when no apparent healing is a trade. More so, if we factor in Dissipation. In fact, one can argue that instead of normal Aetherflow stacks that Dissipation gives, it will be Empowered Aetherflow Stacks where all actions done using those will either have extra effects or a flat out better potencies.

I agree they should probably buff ED, people were willing to “chad” their co healer for ED in ShB when it was a measly 10 potency gain over just spamming broil, it’s obvious that as long as ED is a gain (which it should be because of how AF works) people will use it, so they may as well make it a satisfying button to actually press given it’s tradeoffs
