Ventari Changes
No, druid has the only heals that buff damage. Rev is not alone. Every other class lacks that as well.
rev has its own way of supporting dps anyway
Hey just a thought and seeing some others thoughts on Anets ventari changes, and changes that should be/can be done.
Looking at the patch notes it felt like anet mostly changed some ventari powers to better at reacting, and increasing burst heals, however, i don’t think that was the issue with it at least in pve. Sure it feels a bit better in pvp so you can heals allies on demand due to enemy bursts, but it still lacks what people seeing in druids and to some extent, auramancers:
They lack assistance in damage.
Now this isnt to say they need to be able to zerk out and damage like a normal dps while healing by any means. What i am getting at is that druids can buff allies while healing them making up a bit for having a healing in place. The tempest while not providing a lot of damage boost, do decent damage themselves while offering fire fields, fire auras, and sharing boons like might (warhorn fire ability, cannot remember name).
Both of the two said classes provide good heals, druid a bit better, and i dont think ventari’s problem is that it lacks healing or burst heals as it was buffed, it lacks damage boosting. While this can be easily covered with herald, you then lose your ability to heal momentarily, especially considering that you need to sit in herald for a bit to provide the buffs. I think a combination of these 3, if not all, need to be applied to resolve this problem:
-Replacing the trait Hardened Foundation (more toughness per healing power) with some sort of power that provides might per ventari skill used or of the like. (if your trying to just live and heal, do you really need toughness especially if you grab toughness accidentally grab aggro?)
-Increasing burst heals even further and lowering legend switch in case of emergency.
-Increasing staff healing sustain while making number 4 a ranged aoe heal instead of melee heal.
This isnt to mean these are only options, these are merely my own. But what the main point is is that ventari isnt really lacking on heals, its lacking on team buff support comboing with heals.
