Can we PLEASE fix Physick on SMN already?

[Bibine_Bine]

I saw that with recent changes, Dark Mind has finally gotten a fix. On the topic of several year old problems, Physick on SMN has been functionally broken since ARR since it scales off of mind instead of intelligence, which is a healer stat. This means that at higher levels the heal does almost nothing.
An easy fix for this would be to just make a SMN exclusive fork of this ability that scales off of Intelligence. Or better yet, just make the ACN version scale off intelligence since that's a DPS job anyway. This won't affect anything on the SCH end because they get a SCH exclusive version of Physick.

Please. It has been TEN YEARS. Just fix it or remove it already. At this point I don't even care which, I'm just sick of looking at it in this state.

The funny thing is, the Arcanist/Summoner Physick IS already exclusive to them - Scholar has a unique Physick that scales off Mind for like multiple expansions now.

EDIT: Yes both scale off Mind, but the point is still the same - Scholar even has traits boosting it.

Hover over Scholar Physick and it will only list Scholar. Hover over Summoner Physick and it shows ACN + SMN.

I figured that the smn one scaled off mind as well seeing how bad it is

I don't see why this isn't fixed, Surely they can either A: Just remove it or B: Make it scale with Intelligence.

All this would be is a semi ok skill for stuff like Deep dungeons, Criterion dungeons, fates, Bozja, a rare emergency skill.

I just don't understand why this skill exists in the current state that it does, it serves no purpose.

Its tied to arcanist role. If they tied physick to intelligence then SCH would suffer. Sure, they could give a trait to SMN that boosts physick or makes it viable past lvl 35 but its unecessary with the amount of healing SMN can put out at 80 and even 100. Potions are actually fairly solid for healing you or surving a mechanic in older content that's not level 80 when combined with radiant aegis.

I just hope they never take rez away from SMN.

SCH’s physick is a completely different skill, they can change ACN’s physick whenever they want, it won’t affect SCH

i remember when they went out of their way to reassure players that smn physick wasn't being taken out and i thought that finally meant that they were going to scale it off int instead of mnd. what a naive thought that was.

God yes please. It has irked me since 2.0 that Summoner’s Physick doesn’t scale properly and it’s frankly insane that they’ve allowed a broken skill to remain on this (or any) job for such a ridiculous amount of time. Like surely it’s not hard to just make it scale with int and deal with the potential balancing fallout afterwards lol? Hell I’d take them just removing it completely for something else - not my preference but still better than what we have now

Please don't change it I enjoy winding my American friend up about it any chance I get :P

Physick should turn into a Phoenix heal when Phoenix is summoned.
