  1. Another nice note on AST, Earthly Star had a huge DMG buff- 240 Earthly Dominance and 320 Giant Dominance (which is stronger than a Fall Malefic) but I know potencies are always up for changes before release. Just the theory behind Earthly Star doing more dmg than Fall Malefic is interesting. (Sorry if you already mentioned this).

  2. As a healer main and specifically AST main since Creator Savage tier when I first started raiding, I'm really excited for the changes in Endwalker. I agree with everything you said, honestly. I don't care for the redraw change and the removal of sleeve draw, but I vibe with everything else and enjoy them bringing back the old Lord and Lady system from SB so it feels at least a little like the complexity it used to have, if only a bit haha. Thanks for putting out these videos even though you didn't get invited to the media tour; I wish you were but I understand they go for subs rather than content. Was telling my friends you'd be the perfect person to go because of your level-headed nature and well-rounded knowledge.

  3. Another one bites the dust for “wait protraction is single-target?”
    Also, just imagine what kind of beastly mitigation/healing you could get out of combining panhaima macrocosmos (consolation I guess) and lilybell (obviously you could only have two per party but the potential is there when unsyncing down the road)

  4. I will say, I fear that in combat sprint of SCH. As with Rescue… That comes with the possibility of trolling, especially on forced march mechanics…
    I kinda don’t like it because I know that, if someone wants to troll, they can do that at the last possible second meaning you have no chance to remove it.

    Yea, maybe I’m a downer but yea… Not everyone will do that but I don’t like having even less control over my actions.

  5. As someone who actually really enjoyed optimizing movement on WHM, I'm completely stoked for 1.5s casts. I feel like it doesn't ruin movement, but trying to weave was always a headache and it fixes that. Especially plenary, which you'd like to weave off the lily it's supposed to be buffing, or the second assize of the fight where your dot is halfway through and everyone's already topped so a lily isn't even worth using.

  6. I think the SCH level 90 skill gets a lot more shit than it really should. There are already a lot of situations where it could be really helpful (if just looking at recent content, it looks like it would be helpful in like half of the mechanics in E12S where you need to move into position quickly while the whole raid is taking constant damage). 10% damage reduction and sprint during a mechanic like statues would be super useful and give way more room for error.

    If there's a level 90 skill that sucks, I think it's Lilybell. The stacks only activating when the WHM gets damaged seems toooo situational. Would be way better if maybe it was someone that got damaged within 10-20 yalms of the lilybell or something. But at the end of the day, I guess it will depend on how the new content is designed. If there are going to be mechanics where the healers and/or whole raid will take continuous damage, maybe it'll be a lot better than I give it credit for.

  7. Protraction on sch is sadly not an aoe. The tooltip reads “of a party member or self” so definitely just a single target ability, as cool as that does sound being an aoe
