Dev Request: Back to 4 Cures

[lordebon]

I have a request... let us have our 4 old cures back.

Before, it was possible to prioritize curing based on what type it was. For example, the Elemental may be annoying but not a big deal, but a noxious may be highly painful and deadly. Now it'd impossible to cure one but not the other, since cure just goes for them.

I'm not asking to completely revert -- I do like the idea of a single cure at some points. What I would like is to have the 4 individual cures back for those that would care to use them.

Now, for a somewhat related rant.

Now, can someone explain to me why the mechanics of the +mitigation on cure AA had to be changed? It was *fine* before and rather useful. I used to use it to buff say the MT on a pull to give them that little bit more mitigation or resist before things got settled down.

But now, that's no more. Now the + mit/resist is near useless if you ask me, since it only works WHEN something is cured. That's like a 90 degree change from what it was before. Was it not working as intended before? If not, why this change that severely devalues the AA?

If it was done to prevent the single cure from being too powerful, how about this compromise: Leave the single Cure as it is now, but add back the 5 individual cures as they were (ie, so that they give the buff even if nothing is actually cured). Solves two problems with one stone, if you ask me.

Whew. That felt kinda good. Devs please don't take offense, you know I love you all, it's just hard for me to understand some of the things you do
