COR kept potent regain because it can only put up two buffs with unreliableish potency so Regain is competing with more powerful effects. Aside from Wild Card, Random Deal, and the enfeebling enhancement of Quick Draw COR's party support ends there. SCH heals, buffs, debuffs, turns the tide in pivotal fights and renders many enemies completely vulnerable for extended periods on top of being a capable nuker.

There is no tradeoff for using Adloquium, hence its neutered effects.

In terms of sch, yeah, that's what I hope SE isn't seeing about geo now, with adding enfeebling skill to the repetoire. Thankfully geo's enhancing/healing magic are not much to talk about, so I'm putting my bets on geo's Regain being at least on par with cor's.

Geo does nt get Regain, nor did they say it would.

SE screwed over sch's and gave us nothing since nerf. Yet they can buff puppet.

All sch needs for regin spell enhancement is an ammo, earring, or back piece armor that adds +1 regain a tic when used. But Se won't ever do it.

OK guy you need to settle down. PUP needed a boost, big time, and SCH doesn't. AOE Phal/Regen/Enspells plus embrava is still really nice, just for shorter fights. PUP had practically nothing before alternator.

GEO is getting very powerful from time to time, just like sch, that started with only tier3 nukes and very little white magic spells.

It will be a very requested job i guess.

with /RDM and /SCH being popular subs for GEO, it'll get dispel from both subs but not bind. I was hoping for Bind too honestly, but like I said, I'm happy with what we're getting as is.

indi and geo sleep are not likely going to happen as it would constantly be sleeping a mob meaning you could I don't know say dot it, engage it keep hitting it and pretty much tank inside the circle and watch it stay perma-stunned in a matter of speaking

They should give GEO Sleepga and Sleepga II to go along with the AoE nature of the job... I don't see why those spells absolutely must be tied to BLM onry forever. They'd go well with GEO's -ra spells. I mean like, if a GEO is trying to hit multiple targets, which happen to be in a circle around him due to how -ra nukes work, what then? Sleep one of them, and wait to die? /SCH manifestation doesn't really cut it. Natively getting sleepga would make sense and it's not like it would be broken or anything

I don't understand what the deal with adding Max MP Boost is. They did that with, SCH, too. I mean it's like... "Oh, you're having MP problems? Here, have 10 extra MP!" Like, I don't get it. If they think GEO's base MP rank isn't high enough, why not change their base MP rank? What is their rank currently, tied with WHM? (SCH is tied with RDM) Why not just give them BLM's MP rank? Or hell, even SMN's MP rank since they pretty much "summon" luopons which need to be reapplied constantly and whatnot. I don't see how adding 10 MP even makes sense. And it's negated anyway when subbing SCH, as SCH gets it at level 30.

Hey Geomancers!

Just as another tiny bit of information related to the upcoming geomancer adjustments; the enfeebling magic skill that will be added to geomancer will be the same rank as that of a black mage.

Also, the recast timer reductions for abilities that affect luopons will be located in the group 1 merit point category.

Mocchi: GEO Merit Follow-ups

The Life Cycle recast is 10 minutes and the merits were stated to only reduce recast by 10 seconds. Is there any reason this isn't consistent with other merits which reduce recast time?

In the test server update on June 14, the values you stated were those that were initially implemented, but this will be changed to the correct value of 20 seconds reduction per merit.Is there any reason that the reuse time on Life Cycle is so long? Compared to other pet HP recovery abilities:

BST: 90 seconds
DRG: 90 seconds
PUP: 180 seconds

There's been precedent with these other abilities for 90~180 seconds recast time. It would be much better if the recast timer was reduced to this range and the merit was changed to recover additional HP with each merit.

[[Other suggestions about improving Ecliptic Attrition/Lasting Emanation and Blaze of Glory.]]

Thanks for your feedback.

For the effects of Blaze of Glory and Ecliptic Attrition, you may find that you want to use them more frequently. However, similar to the effect of Marcato for Bard, these cannot be maintained at all times, and this is intentional by design, so there is no plan to adjust this at the moment. The merits will allow to use them to obtain the effects a bit more often.

Regarding the recast timer of Life Cycle, it will be updated to -20 seconds per merit so it can also be taken advantage of more often.For the group 2 job trait Curative Recantation, I think the HP recovery amount should be evaluated. If the recovery amount is determined based on the Luopan's remaining HP, it may be an ability best used for soloing. It's possible to convert the Luopan to 25% of the Luopan's HP recovered at 5 merits.

With the recast of Full Circle being 10 seconds, Geomancers can recover their own HP without relying on cure spells.
These effects are still being adjusted and may be changed. For Curative Recantation, it does recover HP based on the Luopan's maximum HP.

[[Quote 1:]] Instead of leaving Luopans in place until their HP runs out, they can be placed to match the enemy behavior. This may help alleviate some of the MP consumption issues.

[[Quote 2:]] Even with the merit point taken into account, the MP consumption by GEO spells is still very high.

There were different opinions on the benefits of the Full Circle effect enhancement from different people. Thank you for both of your opinions.

Deciding whether to maintain or sacrifice the Luopan can be a decision made based on the circumstance. For example, when you have a lot of MP, you could try to increase the effectiveness of the Luopan, and when your MP is lower, you may prefer to use abilities to maintain the Luopan. Please consider a variety of situations.

Greetings,

I have some responses for feedback we have been seeing thus far regarding geomancer merits.

Life Cycle Recast
We will be changing this so that each merit level reduces the recast time by 20 seconds.
Blaze of Glory / Ecliptic Attrition
We understand that many of you would like to be able to have these effects active for an even longer time. However, we do not have plans to make it so you can maintain these effects forever, similar to how it is not possible for bards to have Marcato on forever.

We'd like you to consider how to keep your luopan alive and when to ramp up the luopan's potency in order to achieve a longer effect.
Full Circle
We've been seeing a lot of mixed feedback about the effects of Full Circle, both stating that the boons from meriting this are large, while others state it is not that much.

We would like you all to decide to whether to maintain or get rid of your luopans based on the situation you find yourself in. For example, at the beginning of battles when you have a lot of MP, you can use abilities that increase the potency of luopans, and when you feel that your MP is getting low, you can use abilities that focus on keeping your luopan alive.

Also, starting with the artifact equipment that will be added in the next version update as well as other new equipment that will be added moving forward, these will have both geomancy and handbell skill enhancements which will push the potency of geomancy even higher.

Mocchi: Follow-up Frenzy

Geomancer

[[Quoted post talking about Blaze of Glory and Ecliptic Attrition, and how it's easy to use both of them on one spell only to have the Luopan get destroyed immediately by an enemy attack.]]

It is not intended that you should be able to maintain the boosted state of the effect for a long time. That said, the effects will grow in power in the future. On artifact gear which will be added in the next update as well as more equipment in the future, there will be stats which increase geomancy and handbell skills.

[[Quoted post talking about how they've had Geo spell effects dispelled. Not sure if they're talking about the Indi-spell on themselves, or what.]]

Thanks for your report.

This sounds a little strange, and we will have the QA team investigate again. The effects of both Indi- and Geo- spells should be non-dispellable. Once we investigate, I'll inform you of the results.

It may already be too late, but I was really hoping for something in Group 2 merits for Geomancer which could improve the potency of Indi- spells.

As far as I know, Bolster is the only way to boost the effects of Indicolure spells, with nothing else like the abilities that enhance Geo- spells. I was wondering if you could add something like this (or maybe an AF effect?) that enhances Indi- spells.

There are no plans to strengthen the effect of Indi-spells through abilities or otherwise, as this was considered as part of the basic performance of the job.

There will be other elements, such as equipment, which increase the effect value and duration. For example, in the next update, the added artifact armor will increase geomancy and handbell skills (the magnitude of the effect of all geomancy magic is dependent on these skills).
