White Mage Job Adjustments - Answers To User Sugg.

I don't feel whm needs any major updates to maintain its usefulness. Unless they start giving all jobs all cure tiers, whm is quite fine. and when it comes to melee whm, its actually well equipped. in abyssea i do 3,000-5,000 hexas like every other DD, only i have KC so i do it ever ~10 seconds. idk about you, but personally i think thats decent for a "back line job". If i had to ask for anything for whm that imo would seem balanced is give it a job trait that allows it gain higher cure potency cap or give it some low cool down JAs that heal. like pray from ffx

Question:
Make it so the chances of curing Doom increase with higher healing magic skill.

SE:
Buy holy waters

lmao that's not what they said >.> even though you always should.

WHM is only boring in abyssea really. In voidwatch its a lot more fun to play.

lol i know just kidding.
Anyway isnt that thing affected by enhancing magic already ?

It was tested before that having higher magic skill meant you have a better chance to take off doom. Either.. SE wont admit to that, or the testing was wrong.

o.o? cursna?

I think the dude meant Healing Magic.

I would hope so! <.>;

i just heard somewhere that was like that, just asking to make sure and dont go around with false informations.

It's magic skill is healing magic, it will never use enhancing magic.

ok thanks Kalilla ^.^

:)

I love how they'r basicly saying "Stop beeing such a gimp" :P

Small update for WHM today:

Bayohne Community Rep	Banish IV and Banishga III, for which an implementation timetable has yet to be determined, have received a lot of attention. But Curaga V, which has been a bit lacking, has been adjusted and the enmity gained has been lowered. The updated data is now reflected on the Test Server, so please check out Curaga V's latest effects.

Since there is also Holy Water when curing this is difficult, we’d like to monitor the current rate. Though it depends on luck and repeated attempts, but the recovery rate was set rather high so it can be cured before the countdown timer reaches zero.

"it depends on luck and repeated attempts"

Straight from the horse's mouth, so to speak.

This makes me think that having a Cursna set really is completely useless. Why then are there specifically "healing magic skill" pieces even IN the game at all??? If you are a white mage you are probably curing all the time anyway, which means you aren't going to go for HMSkill pieces but cure potency, mind and -enmity pieces. Not HMSkill (only) pieces.
