At the same time, calling it mini-holy makes paladin sound way cooler than it is, and we can't have that.

Then it turns out that it's not Mini-Holy, it's Mega Holiest of Holy and now the WHM's are salty at the PLD having a really strong cast AoE even though they can only cast it twice before being out of MP :v:

Edit: Also the WAR skill that looks so neat? Self Destruct :v:

PBC is actually an illegal Free Company, the game's branded you as a criminal and the guards outside every zone will attack you on sight now.

i've been sitting around punching dummies at sss for a while now in my downtime, and i have a question:

healer dps supposedly isn't factored into enrage timers for raids, right? so how the hell do they figure out the healer sss dummies? why do they even exist if the game wants to pretend any healer dps at all is entirely gravy?

I presume that healer SSS targets were just added with kind of arbitrary numbers so they'd have something rather than nothing.

But that's no less odd than dev expectations that healers shouldn't need to contribute dps in this, the game system where everyone is a dps but some have extra roles on the side.

Healer DPS isn't factored in when setting an enrage timer, but they still expect healers to be doing DPS. SSS is basically meant to be your threshold level of dps needed assuming the rest of your party does the same threshold level dps.

Cleric Stance being technically optional for 2 of the 3 healer classes makes it seem like it would be hard to balance around.

Or they could just remove cleric stance and have healer damage spells scale with Mind instead, that would be even more intuitive and simpler to manage! :can:

I like the mechanics of cleric stance but I would not bemoan for an instant any sort of hurdles being removed from getting healers to cast their god drat damage spells.

Easy solution. Healer offensive magic scales with MND. Cleric Stance loses the attribute swap, but retains the damage potency increase and healing potency decrease. Optimal Healer DPSing still requires it, however healer damage spells aren't useless without it.

Anyone been having an increasingly degrading experience with the Software Token app on Android lately? I've had the app reset twice in the past 24 hours and now I am locked out of my account as I can't send another emergency removal e-mail until those 24 hours since the last one sent are up. :v:

For the record: Nexus 5X, Android 7.1.2, and this doesn't seem to be happening only when applying Android updates/SE token updates. Bummer.

This doesn't sound terrible, and kinda brings it in line with their early proposed enochian changes.

So I was going to buy my friend a birthday present on Amazon and give them the Stormblood DLC code, but it looks like the promo ended yesterday. I was hoping someone had an extra code lying around. I'm not sure what I can give in return, but please PM me. If you're on Gilgamesh I can get you a pet or something.

Recently I saw a sprout running around in nothing but their small clothes. I sent them a tell and was like "hey lemme make you some stuff!". They were on the hempen age of gear so it ran me like 300 gil at worst to make them a full HQ set of gear. I gave them some advice on healer and they asked me what was better, whm or sch. I say I main sch and I like it better cause while whm has big heals, sch is more fun to dps. And then they said it:

I want to focus more on healing, I don't think I'll use cleric stance.


A lost cause....
