Sage main: crap I missed that Euk Prognosis before the group wide…who wants some Pepsis? 😜
i want a dosis of pepsis
V neat guide!
One thing I will say re: gearing is that Det is defo the primo stat over D.hit rn damage/output wise for a variety of reasons, but I've always found that the 'Det boosts healing though' argument…is kinda a placebo at best? I recall the math being done about it for healers in Shadowbringers before the numbers and Det change, so this may be more drastic now, but back then the difference was like…1% more damage for more D.hit melds and 3-4% more healing-ish. Which sounds decisively in favour of the latter…until you sit down and actually think about 'wait, how many times would +3-4% healing have actually changed the amount of heals I do'. I think a lot of people making the mistake of comparing defensive numbers like HP directly with offensive numbers like DPS and treating them both exactly the same, but the difference is more DPS is literally always a good thing, whereas you can and should have Enough HP/mit/etc. And SE/CBU3 are never going to design (modern at least) fights where those kinda small heal power increments are actually going to matter outside of hail mary damage RNG luck in situations where, lets be honest, you should've been pressing more mit/healing in the first place. It's like Tenacity for tanks; basically no-one has ever actually actively noticed a tank being more durable bc of going Tenacity simply bc those kinds of slim constant margins aren't really what this game is about outside of big dungeon pulls at most, which stuff like melding is always overkill for anyway.
Hi, nice guide! I think pneuma does 60% damage to enemies past the first, not 50% however.
Control+M, Shift+M, you're welcome.
As a console player I find heading impossible to target people any advise?
Gonna go get me a scotch and pepsis while I watch this and learn to heal sage.
actually Pepsis is a pretty darn good skill.. if you time it right you'll mitigate dmg with the barrier and get the heals with pepsis so more dmg mitigated
First class video as always
I dont understand why the players meld D.HIT on healers. Meld DET, it is a flat increase to damage and healing vs a CHANCE to do some extra damage on a single hit. Madness
What is the weapons you use on the intro? They look super cool
I don’t know if you hear this often to the point where it just sounds like I’m saying this just to say it but.. You’re a really good YouTuber, and this guide has definitely helped me become a better sage and I feel a lot more comfortable playing the class, so thank you very much for this 🤗 ! Keep up the good work!
Haima is an amazing skill but I think a single tank buster will only break one stack of haimation and effectively only prevent that much damage. A shield move will probably prevent more damage when it comes to a tank buster?
Good stuff!
As a suggestion, for the next healer video you do, when you go over Esuna, point out that you can Esuna any debuff that has the little white bubble over the top and you can't Esuna any debuff without it. I've had healers in the level 89 dungeon tell me that I was the first one to teach them that, so it's definitely the sort of thing I'd want included in a guide like this.
