what's the best healer to use for another merchant's tale?
previous ew criterions, I think it was consensus that sage was the undisputed goat but is that the same for amt?
jolly flume
the gap wasn't really that big in endwalker, sage was just braindead easy to play so it was nice to brain off despite the jobs being basically equivalent in situational strength
I haven't bothered to do amt yet but scholar this expansion is criminally strong compared to sage, even if it's a bit more unwieldy to play it's worth considering
devout wraith
friend tried every healer and ended up sticking to WHM
is the healing throughput way more needed than mitigation?
sleek moon
im not the healer so i cant give you a proper answer, but it seemed to me like with or without strong mit there's still a ton of healing to do in a short time between mechanics, and he liked WHM heal throughput more for that
sge is comfy for a few mechanics where people are too spread apart but sge is not very comfy when it comes to topping people up
if you are able to play all healers i would say just do a run on each to get the feel of it

Both at the same time usually, no?

I remember the loot chest from them gets unlocked, but the token stays locked once per week, but I'm not sure if the tomestone exchange gets cut in half at the same time? or whenever the weekly weapon token gets unlocked later down the line

Ok ye 7.3 did both at once

Ok ye 7.3 did both at once
"this change does not apply to the cruiser holosaber obtained in aac cruiserweight m4"

LFM/LFG = looking for member/group
casual/mc/(s)hc = casual, midcore, hardcore
everything else is usually pretty self explanatory
remote gate
lfm means looking for members, NA means north american, aether is the data center, ultimate is the type of content, 6/8 means they need two more ppl with it being tanks specifically, and Temporal statis is their prog point
rapid whale
mid core is almost always a red flag imho
cuz the definition is so broad it's basically meaningless
what 1 person calls mid core another calls casual, someone else calls hard core, ec
another thing is people who are not explicit on expectations eg clear by x timeframe

But they’re more of the raid finishes and they’re in fru/crit instantly type that my entire static is
rapid whale
no sh ame in that
i know even week 1 statics that
how to phrase
the person i know in it is not confident that they will be doing ultimate with them
like the difficulty spike tests more things than just player skill such as mental etc
so if htey arent confident in their week 2 group makes sense
clear plume
So yeah, they’re in the headspace of like, they really like the group and want to go HC, but they’re scared of breaking up the friend group/them taking it wrong if they move to another group, which I think they’ll get past surely
I don’t think they’re not confident? Just that my static has a lot of the same hunger and experience mix that helps them grow

the bar noble and I agree on for acceptable pacing is less than 2x the hours spent of the true race groups which usually comes out to like under 35 hours for the week, the type of fight that they put out influences this but still I can't imagine clearing at like 75 hours of prog
