Heavensward 3.0 Patch Notes

[Clover]

NERF HOLY INTO THE GROOOOUND!

 

 

This makes me very sad in the heart...

Wasn't it enough that Holy already eats tons of your MP?

[Ritual]

It seems they're trying to probably make WHM a little less useful for speed runs, which is strange, (spoiler in case you don't want WHMs new moves spoiled.)

considering they'll get Aero III an AoE DoT, Tetris which is an instant heal like lustrate, Assize too, which is OGCD with an AoE damage potency of 300, it also heals in an AoE, restores 10% of the WHM MP and is instant cast with a 90 second cooldown >>.

They seem like speed-running moves to me, but they probably want WHM to keep the "pure" healer motif to and not have them too effective.

[Griffith!]

Just makes me a little gladder that all I ever play is tanks. Paladins weren't nerfed. (You know, in this game.)

[Kage]

As one who plays Black Mage and Scholar a lot. This... hurts a little.

 

Lustrate is now crit able and affected by buffs but also will have to deal with healing debuff too.

[Geisterfuchs]

Players can now select Item Comparison, Try On, Search for Item, and Link when viewing items in the lot window.

 

 

This makes me very happy.

[Zyrusticae]

Seeing people want to jump ship from BLM just because Flare got nerfed just makes me wanna laugh, laugh, laugh at their expense.

 

Honestly, if your attachment to the class is so weak that it's entirely contingent on them being unquestionably OP in dungeon speed runs... well, honestly, I don't really have anything nice to say about that.

[Darien Cadell]

Why oh why would you want to lower an items quality from HQ to NQ? in what world does that make sense?

 

Ooh, I know, I know! For stackable quest turn-ins.

 

The number of times I quicksynthed elemental potions for Ixali only to get one of the batch HQed and nobody buys those useless things and my perfectly gathered amounts are all thrown out of whack. I eventually gave up quicksynthing and just individual synthed each.

 

And would still get HQ with a sldfkjsdlfkj 1% chance!

 

So for some, this is an endearing little quality of life change.

You actually have nice things to say? Holy crap, all this time I was under the impression posts like this were kinda your thing.

[Zoetrooper]

Please be excellent to each other. Thank you!

Gharen is wearing his grumpy pants.

[Gharen]

Not at all, just making a point.

Oh.

 

I have my grumpy pants on. I was hoping we'd be matching today.

[Zyrusticae]

Sure fooled me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Let's stay on subject, shall we? Anyway! I heard that during a few months after FFXIV's release, that Holy took a nerf but maybe it was just a rumor? It'd be odd for the skill to take two nerf hits but I'm not terribly fond of using Holy anyway lest it was to stun a bunch of monsters from smacking the tank for a moment. Still, I love the class and wouldn't be anything else so I'm hopeful the new skills will be that more useful.

Yes, they've nerfed Holy at least once before.  This is more of a fundamental change, tho, in how the damage is parsed between mobs.  Before it was just a pure numbers nerf (that still didn't keep Holy from being really important for speed runs).

[Chill Man]

That's okay SE, I totally wanted to drop my class' formerly mobile playstyle so I can be a discount blm.
