Noting that the tooltips are hilariously wrong in the english version for tons of skills.
For example, Riddle of Fire increases damage by 30% and increases recast by 15%, instead of 20% and 30% respectively
Foe's Req increases damage done TO enemy by 3%, not damage done FROM enemy.
There are loads of incorrect tooltips.

Have never done PotD. If I wanna use it to level RDM should I wait until RDM drops (i.e. is there some kind of first time bonus) or should I just start spamming until I can reach 51-60 (I hear this is the best floor(s) or something to level up)? Was thinking about trying it out on a lv60 tank class. Would healer or dps be faster to reach Floor 51-60?

No first time bonus, but if you never did it before, you should go do it so you can unlock floors 51+ and get the actual exp bonuses.

There actually was (before SB), just look at the dps disparity. A good dps could do more 3 times over the dps of a bad one. Now looking at those changes all classes seems so ridiculously easy to play, which is why I ask to most hardcore theorycrafter to which ones would be the hardest to play.

RDM: what is the reason to use white magic over black magic and vice versa?

Personally when I dps I just let healer do their thing and never get nervous about how low the tank's hp gets unless they are actually letting them die.

Most likely because the shit is the same and this is what we are running with at launch.

Technically, if you have over 7000 in score. it is considered extremely high score. but to be safe, just play the game with med-high settings to get more frame rate.

Hey scholars, are you ready to DPS like a level 40 conjurer?
>>
>>378696563
Yes, VIT translated into some extra potency as well. Back during 1.0 I was loaded out for support and VIT and got most of my heavy lifting done with fat juicy HoTs. Even after 2.0 when it was toned way down, I still played WHM as a Regen machine as much as I could.
>>
>>378696846
it's not that things have changed, it's that the tooltips are mistranslated. MCH's overheating effect, for example, says you get a 20% damage DECREASE, but in actuality you get a 20% damage INCREASE. There are tons of these, like Foes Requiem & Riddle of Fire.

Going to lay down some knowledge for all the casual players and idiots who don't know what they're talking about.

1) Take any and all media you see like a grain of salt. There was a disclaimer before the live letter started that numbers weren't final, tooltips weren't accurate, and that healing/damage numbers were still being adjusted.

2) On the subject of WHM, Thin Air is a godsend. It allows for burst atop with PoM. The loss of Piety as a primary stat is a weird change but WHM *will* be stacking crit (something they were already doing anyway with Determination being nerfed) so it's not like it matters anyway.

3) People often forget that "utility" is also a fancy way of saying "other stuff to do besides your job". If WHM is powerful enough, people really aren't going to care about the utility as much as some think they will. It's funny because which DPS classes are high utility? MCH, NIN, and BRD. Which classes get the most shit? MCH, NIN, and BRD.

4) Reality is, people care about the numbers first, utility second. The groups most likely to demand utility are the ones that can't do decent DPS on their own. Said groups are also the same people who need the healers with bigger numbers to keep them alive.

5) WHM got the least amount of changes, but the problem wasn't that we were lacking in abilities to begin with.


tl;dr - The groups most likely to demand utility are the ones that can't do decent DPS on their own. Said groups are also the same people who need the healers with bigger numbers to keep them alive. WHM will perform well in Stormblood.
>>
>>378696690
Nin never had a solid rotation before, only keeping up dots, now its fucking pld rotation

Much better than HW, no cast times and they alternate between 3 songs that each slightly change how they play.

If Lilies were guaranteed off of cure/cure2 casts instead of being random procs, would WHM be viable?

But Gauss Barrel itself is only a 5% damage increase. Going without it for 10 seconds in exchange for a 20% damage boost is worth it in EVERY case. There's no reason to not just overheat as often as possible, which makes the skills which balance or reduce your heat completely meaningless.

Because you have to align the overheat with wildfire for maximum damage.

>>378697671
Also since WHM has a bunch of emergency buttons along with Thin Air they can use PoM to spam Stone IV instead of needing to save it for burst healing

Being overheat might lock you out of some pretty important skills though. You'll probably want to overheat while close to the end of your burst window aka wildfire.

If I wanted to start FFXIV this weekend, what are the chances I am max level by the time Stormblood comes out?

So does SAM's base numbers seem kinda high to anyone else? I mean 720 potency attack with a 150% boost while the 150% boost is on a 5sec CD seems kinda nuts. I actually wonder if that 150% will apply to all ticks of their that already does more damage than most DOTs
>>
>>378697186
I'm sure WHM will perform well because they did fine in HW.
SCH/AST will be better and that is where the problem is.

Having proc shit is a bad idea with a main mechanic. This is balance by said proc being REALLY good, so AST got away just fine. WHM procs are both viewed as underwhelming since Cure/Cure 2 is hardly used if you are a decent WHM and the actual effects are weak.

- Lilies reduce CD's on abilities that are generally timed with mechanics
- Lilies don't give a passive bonus to potentially weight the option of keeping it prior to using it
- If you have to use a CD unknowingly or the stacks are not built up before the mechanic you'd use them for, lol.
- Devine Bension is a OK shield but costs all Lilies to do and does not increase effect based on Lilies

The other new proc buff is also garbage because its a proc. The buff stack mechanic that can be used for a heal would be cute if I ever used Cure 1/2 to heal other people. Now if I do, there is a CHANCE I would get a useful proc. Also that new proc is not even tracked with the new UI, making things even more god damn odd.

The raid meta would have to be changed to require the use of Cure/Cure 2 and have these changes make some more sense, but the proc would still be a stupid fucking issue.

Healing more doesn't kill the boss faster, which is the only important thing in the game. You only need to do as much healing as required to survive, and if any healer can do that, then there's NO benefit from bringing a healer that specializes in big healing.

"Utility" is just code for "party DPS buffs" which on a healer are significantly more valuable than having high personal DPS or even healing capability.

People bitching about WHM are silly. Even assuming the current numbers all stay you still have a niche on fights with lots of individually outgoing damage you have to keep up with reactionary, which very well might be a thing in Stormblood. Something like T7 for example.
Go back to bitching about melee DPS or something, healers are way to contextual when it comes to their use and while WHM doesn't look overpoweringly powerful it doesn't look bad enough to not have any use either.

If you view them hitting like a truck as their class utility, then it actually makes sense. Because outside a slashing debuff, they don't provide a damn thing to the raid in their own tool kit.
>>
>>378698427

Literally zero.

ARR story is long as fuck even if you skip the cutscenes plus there will be things like waiting in queues to do certain dungeons and trials to advance the story, which can take a while even if you're a tank or healer depending on what it is. You could grind it out in Palace of the Dead but you'll still have to advance the story to get to Heavensward and then beat the story there to get to Storm Blood.

No way you're doing any of that in two weeks.
>>
>>378698030
Except comparing "utility" DPS to "utility" healers isn't an argument or a point worth making at all when the "utility" healers are already considered the best ones, and the expansion only brings in more of the same. This game doesn't have insane heal checks that require the potency that WHM can put out. It DOES however have DPS checks that are made more possible with the buffs that the other healers provide.

Even if this weren't the case, the changes to WHM are so asinine that they may as well not exist. If you were spamming Cure / Cure II the whole fight on every single person in the raid, then you were playing your class wrong. If you are expecting to utilize this new bullshit lily system properly, then expect a whole lot of playing your class like a fucking "I ONLY HEAL" retard.

To be fair in most raid situations you never actually used DE in the first place. So with SF being a 1-2-3 really the only thing we're losing out on is Mutilate, and to make up for that we have a bar and a couple more oGCD's to keep track of which gets even more complicated when you factor in trying to sync TA with Ten Chi Jin despite the fact that they're on 60s and 100s cd's respectively. Losing B4B and IR sucks.

I still think NIN will be fun to play, and there'll be room for optimization. Plus these rotations will likely be more demanding when confronted with a boss with actual mechanics/jumps.

Depends on how hardcore you go. You could just do palace of the dead the whole time to 60 but you'd probably want to blow your brains out by that point. You'd also have to do all the story stuff which either means you read all the dialogue and actually understand what the story is which would take a while. That or you could just skip everything and not have a clue whats going on but if your just here for the gameplaay then who gives a shit.

If all you really want is to be max level and not give a shit about story, then just buy the jump potion.

DRK is still going to be a strong MT, and you're probably going to see a lot of DRK's tanking because PLD and WAR will never want to MT due to how their new skills and stances work now.

Honestly I could practically forgive the shit Lily system if they had given WHM -ANY- party dps utility at all, but they didn't. And then they went ahead and gave SCH a better Battle Litany.

WHM AoE healing is still fairly top tier. Admittedly, yes, the lily system is shit, and the 20% proc stuff is garbage, but WHM AoE healing is vastly better than SCH or AST healing.

And considering all the raid wide damage that happens on a fairly regular basis, I think it's safe to say WHM will still have a place in any static.

Balance is good utility, and SCH brings solid barriers, but when I see the HP bars of most of my raid on low and see a sharp spike in them going back up, I'll know it was a WHM that did it.

Reminder that healers are losing 10% damage potency from losing cleric stance. The disparity between healer dps and the rest of the raid's is only going to widen. With SCH losing nearly all of their AOE potency, healers are slowly but surely being nudged toward not giving a shit about dpsing because of how insignificant it will be.

Helios is the same as Medica
Diurnal Aspected Helios is 100 less potency over its entire regen effect (i.e. nothing).
Cure III's range is too piss poor to be of any real use as an AoE heal.
You might say that WHM still has Asylum and Assize and I might concede there if AST wasn't getting this ludicrous bullshit.

How to fix nu-WHM in three easy steps:
Divine Benis shields for 15% of target's max HP per lily consumed.
All HoT you cast receive 10% potency boost per lily stocked at time of casting.
Lilies can proc on all your healing, not just Cure I/II, though at reduced rates for HoT ticks and one single check for an AoE heal. Bene also instantly gives three lilies when used.

Also what's so bad about the DRK changes? It doesn't look like anything important changed except maybe Scourge being gone?

I've started playing AST over scholar to get ready for the expansion are they just less expected to dps and make up for it with balance cards? They don't have an extra healer like scholar to sustain heal while they dps and they don't have any big oh shit buttons that let them live on the edge while dpsing like white mage so trying to constantly dps feels really clunky

They have shields or hots to sustain while they dps. Essential Dignity is a great oh shit button on a 40 second cd and Lightspeed and Synastry let you unfuck a lot of mistakes. In general Ast doesn't have as many dps tools but you just keep up your two dots and malefic II spam.

I don't see why they think it's SO much easier to play. You lose Scourge, two oGCDs you spam whenever possible, and instead of spamming the Delirium combo you spam the Souleater combo instead. In exchange you get a meter mechanic which lets you use DRK's equivalent of Fell Cleave and Decimate, plus additional abilities which interact with the meter. If anything it's more complicated but apparently pressing 1 different button when you wanted to Dark Arts your combo is the height of complexity

not too late, it'd take maybe a week of solid story progress to get to Stormblood, give or take.

Fuck you nigger, I take my healer dpsing seriously. I'm just stating the obvious for people trying to argue for one healer of another because of the damage their class can do. You're expected to DPS, but no one is going to pick WHM over AST because WHM can do more damage.

You mean a 10 second cast time. I also don't remember Assize doing 900 fucking potency of healing.

Even if you don't wait the 10s and blow it instantly, it's still more than double what Assize does. Also, it's cooldown is shorter than Assize.

680 potency every forty seconds oh boy

are you implying you need to be smart to use hotkeys? there are only so many keys you can keybind until it just starts to be tedious or annoying to use some of them on a regular basis

As long as they don't make relic-tier grinding mandatory for the story, I'm honestly a happy camper.

Start releasing every AAA game for free but spam ads and have options to pay for $120 worth of virtual currency.

> My feelings: I always forgot to use Scourge. I'll just always have to turn on Grit before Blood Pricing + Abyssal Drain now (more sad that I won't be using Unleash instead). Passenger is something I'll forget about on day 2, maybe even day 1. The one that hits the hardest for me is Blood Price and Unleash, and even then that's just a wombo combo that's really just fun to use. Now I don't have to switch up between Delirium and Souleater, and basically everything else has improved.
Fuck it hurts. Such shit playing my glorius job.

It's a lot of damage. Current DeathFlare is 400 potency and does 10k+ damage on crit. Ahk Morn is 680 and will be further buffed by the 30% rend and mind trait. Expect to see 20ks from it at end game.

Abilities in this game are so fucking boring.

>>378704551
They really are. It's the reason PvP feels like such trash.

>>378704551
At least they're pruning the boring ones.

AST obliterates other healers. Only saving grace SCH gets (with now only having 2 DoTs and 1 ST w/ Instant ShadowFlare compared to 4 DoTs + Bliz2 + fulltime Shadowflare) is 20% crit-up debuff on mob.

Who the fuck said this so I can find them and slap them in the head?

Yeah there's a 60% damage buff, but all potencies were nerfed, a dot removed, and tornado kick is even more useless thats to the defensive cooldown that a dps has for whatever fucking reason.
