    lux heal summoner heal

    this new ability is just weird right? it just feels weird. you cant hold it until the next one is up so you have to use it. if theres no real chance to use it, its just a waste. seems like it could be better suited to be a long last barrier, or maybe they extend the use time for 2 minutes?

    i dont mind being a support class but summoner doesnt feel very supportive with the infrequent heals that are in a way, not on demand since they have to be a part of your rotation...

    ... Lux its useless 90% of the time, i dont bother with it anymore.., as its timing / usage is too limited
    ... fester / Necrotize can't be held on to for more dps (holding them for next burst phase)
    ... Ifrit dash usage is RNG aka often useless, or even a hinderance due to the animation lock
    ... Seering Flash is time limited too, ... but that kinda makes sense, as you should use it during the burst phase (that's when it comes up)
    ... Radiant Aegis is still limited (can't use during demi -summones or right after normal summons.. , at least its duration last long)
    ... Smn suffers from phase pushing / delays, it can mess up the timing of Ifrit
    ...
    ... => still Smn is the lowest DPS (aside of Dnc), with ONLY a rez and mid / weak Dps buff -__-"
    (the summoner of Bahamut is a weak dps -__-"..)

    Unless someone makes a mistake and needs a tiny heal to prevent KO, it tends to not be too effective in most cases; otherwise, a healer has more than enough tools to fix mistakes without Lux Solaris's usage.

    Not taking high-end duties into account and although having any heal utility from any role is usually a good thing, I don't know if I would have preferred if Lux Solaris was a barrier instead of a flat heal. Maybe it /could/ have function as a party-wide barrier with flat heals if triggered or expires where it would get better usage at /some/ point regardless of whether or not it aligns with outgoing damage, but I don't have enough knowledge on how it would actually play out as I'm not looking at high-end play in the future.

    I wish it did damage too, like PCT’s Star Prism. That way if the heals aren’t really needed, it still does something useful!

    If not, maybe let it stay there until you summon the next Demi, so it can be saved for a more useful time before it disappears.
