    Well the change in frontlines certainly makes people less survivable. As now they effectively have 2500 less mp. Like before patch? Purify and heal while retreating, only cost 2500 mp. Do that now? 5000 mp cost.

    Bard? Oh yeah, they can also snipe you of 5000 mp, so depending on your mp pool you are either at 5000, 2500, or 0. If sniped when retreating, that is 0 mp.

    Similarly white mages can drain 2500 mp. Which if a player uses purify to remove miracle of nature, and then a heal, they are down to 2500 mp or effectively 0 if their mp is not close enough for another purify or heal.

    EDIT: Also amazing that they basically made purify so bad, its reactive now. A proactive purify is swift, which is for melee dps, lasts 4 seconds, seems to be only countered by miracle of nature, no mp cost, and grants 100% movement speed. So great if you want to retreat or engage.

    And Bard has its own variation of purify, warden's paean, which is useful and doesn't cost mp.
