Question that came up in my guild today: does anyone happen to know when Bloodwhetting/Raw Intuition picked up the ability to cast on other targets? The split between it and Nascent feels bloated and the hunch of "it made sense when it was just DR and heals on the tank's attacks, then everything else gets piled on the skill" was put out there. GNB's version for example just has one skill that can be cast on self or others.

I don't think Bloodwhetting/Raw Intuition can be cast on other targets, that's why Nascent Flash exists e: they even share a recast timer Potassium Problems fucked around with this message at 20:58 on May 5, 2023 |

The split between Bloodwhetting/Raw Intuition and Nascent Flash made more sense in Shadowbringers when Raw Intuition was just DR for self and Nascent Flash was heals for self and DR/heals for a party member. But because the heals for self portion of Nascent Flash was so powerful in Shadowbringers, even if the party member didn't benefit at all from the DR/heals it often healed for more than what RI would have mitigated. So that's probably why they baked healing into RI/Bloodwhetting for EW. There's no real good reason why they're still two separate buttons though, Heart of Corundum shows that they can have skills change depending on their target so they could easily have Bloodwhetting still grant the heals on self even if it grants the majority of the defensive buffs to a party member if used like Nascent Flash. My theory is that they just didn't want to change the buttons so they just left both at two. The abilities are in a prime position to be collapsed into a single button for the next expansion though. Intervention/Sheltron at least have some uniqueness in the reservoir cooldown system and Intervention's interactions with Rampart/Sentinel.

Potassium Problems posted:I don't think Bloodwhetting/Raw Intuition can be cast on other targets, that's why Nascent Flash exists That's what I meant. Nascent is the "bloodwhetting on another target" skill, but unlike some tanks it's split into two skills. And digging through old versions to figure out when that happened will help illuminate why. So I'm curious if anyone knows off the top of their head before I dig.

Nascent Flash originally required you to cast it on another party member. which was a pain in the rear end and they removed that requirement in 5.3. then Endwalker added all the extra stuff, and created Bloodwhetting as the version you use on yourself and made Nascent Flash the one you use on other people. basically Nascent was around first, that's why it's 2 buttons.

Ah, the FFXIV wiki has Version History. I feel I really should have noticed that ages ago, would have made things a LOT easier when I've tried to look up old versions of updated skills. In comparison Gamer Escape just has "Nascent Flash has been added to the game" in its history. Anyway, this came about because it turned out one of my guildies was still using the "use Nascent Flash" instincts she'd internalized in Shadowbringers and was wondering why the other tank in savages was taking so much less damage than she was.

Nascent Flash being superior to Raw Intuition in Shadowbringers also depended on which weaponskills exactly were used during the cast funnily enough. The heal at the time was based on the actual damage you did so you would get significantly more healing out of it if you used it during an Inner Release window as opposed to just some filler weaponskills.

To be fair I main gunbreaker and I still have corundum on two separate buttons. I have it hotkeyed normally to use on myself and a separate hotkey with a mouse over macro for use on party members. Suspect many people do similar so while it's weird that warrior has two separate abilities I don't think changing that would necessarily reduce button bloat

Alxprit posted:I don't think I ever realized Corundum was useable on allies... Pretty sure every tank's 25-ish second cooldown is, as part of their attempt to unify the toolkits so nobody was getting left out (for which warrior in dungeons is a weird outlier that they haven't figured out how to tweak without nuking). Really handy when doing a boss and the healer dies, you get to pick your favorite DPS to keep up and rely on your other cooldowns. And occasionally in savages using it on the main tank can be useful, though a lot of the time it's overkill unless you're going in early and undergeared.

Yeah this discussion could very easily devolve into that graffiti scene from Life of Brian, but in summary: Latin hard and notionally convenient translations of Minfilia that people on twitter get weird about are not necessarily reliable (especially as Thancred clearly does NOT have a fatherly relationship to her, it's far more brotherly)
