I still love black mages tho!

I dunno
if you do elite blm vs elite sch, the sch will prolly cry.It's all I am saying.Now done with the blm vs sch.

No one is going to turn down a red mage as a healer for a party in an 18 man exp alliance. But if I'm going to kill an NM with 2-3 people, I'm taking a white mage and not a red mage. They've already given you all the reasons.
Obviously everyone would, I never once said anything about NOT doing that that's why i don't understand all the hostility as if I had said that or anything like that. Nobody's being hostile, we're just being realistic. I'm being hostile but that's cause I'm sick~

In that situation the first thing you should be doing is restricting the number of people in range to take damage.
What, me taking 3 minutes to satisfy my curiosity on how far WHM MP really goes or you running out of MP?

Lakshmi.Emanuelle said: Fenrir.Nightfyre said: Cerberus.Vaness said: and hmm refresh isnt always unnessairy. Most ppl like you think that having 3x atmas make you able to spam cure 5-6 forever w/o running out of mp.I did run out of mp, quite a few time (omg surprise!). Well...
Quote: Curing DDs that just dont care about phys and mag dmg Here's your first problem.
Now, you have 15/tic from atmas (Minikin/Ambition/Allure), 9 from Ballads (III/II, AF3+2 legs + Crooner's Cithara), and 3/tic from Sublimation (minus cost of Stoneskin). That's 27 MP/tic, or 540 MP per minute. You have around 180 MND and 120 VIT at a guess, plus capped Cure Potency (50%). At 361 Healing Magic skill I'm getting ~1100 for Cure V. Cure VI formula is unknown, so I'll eyeball it at 1500 if that's agreeable.
Light Arts active, Cure V costs 121 MP and Cure VI costs 204. Factor in conserve MP, 112.5 and 189.7. A Hume WHM/SCH has around 1800 MP naked with all Merit abyssites and Allure. Spamming Cure V/VI at recast (including cast time, call it 8 seconds on C5 and 11 seconds on C6), I'm getting 1880 MP expended in that timeframe... Leaving you with 460 MP. So no, you can't literally spam at recast. I think that was obvious though. However, that's also implying that your DDs are taking over 16000 damage/min and that the rest of your backline is doing *** all to help you keep people alive. It's also completely disregarding Cureskin. I shouldn't have to point out how ridiculously unrealistic this is. Even in a situation where you're somehow healing over 6k HP/min, you have a shitton of meds and a Martello available, plus Martyr, any precharged Sublimation value, Benediction, and cruor meds. Realistically speaking, if a WHM is running out of MP then something is very wrong. Hell, realistically speaking you don't even need all the refresh I added in up there for pretty much anything. MM, Sublimation, and maybe NQ Ballads is enough for most things. i have been there, having tons of mp and atmas /refresh tics i remember 2 times runing out of mp but it was because i was literally healing the entire alliance there is alot of situation like that happening.I am guessing also night didnt experience rani/raja yet.Have fun ;p

ill just stop -_- you need to educate more about scholars, blms barely keep up with mp even with atmas, even if a blm out nuke a scholar for 20-40 dmg more it's not worth it because they have to use higher tier costly nukes to do it good,

I did Rani this morning.
Kept only one person in range, rly. People would run in to WS when they had TP. I didn't notice any mages having MP issues.
I was backline curing on DANCER using Regain atmas and I wasn't running out of TP. The only time there was an issue was after a Meteor or a Meteor ---> Charmga combo, but even then it wasn't a "Do I have enough MP?" It was a "Can we cure fast enough?" issue.
Tl;dr --> Don't have people all over the mob that spams nasty AoE.

uhh i know im pretty gimp (i have a million excuses none of them matter) i'm not arguing this or denying it
...but maybe it's just me, but it sounds like you're saying a WHM does not have every single one of the items you named then it's super gimp or as you put it "something is very wrong".
3 lunar abyssites
Minikin
Ambition
Allure
cure potency 50%
all Merit abyssites
a BRD in every party
that being said, I don't really run out of mp like you said but ***I don't have 1800mp yet.. with all the temp items and martellos etc it helps me keep a float. I always buy temp meds to help recover from my gimpness it helps a lot.

If you don't have any of the above, and you change to RDM, you still don't have any of the above. Still, it's idyllic, and the optimal WHM will have these. There's a difference between "adequate" and "the best".

Also, you kinda speak for nothing here.I was talking about no outside refresh just atmas and you bring up ballads in your counting.So your arguments isnt worth anything aggainst mine.

The best guess I can give about PUP magian trials is that they wont put any in and you'll be stuck with the same 3 weaponskills for your automatons for the rest of ffxi. You hear Drks bitching because all they got was that new circle move... yet that's still more than what they did for pup.
