[dev1087] Job Adjustments: White Mage

  • A new spell will be added:

    • Araise (Lv. 99)
      • Revives and bestows Reraise III upon target PC.
      • The revived target will suffer from weakness for three minutes.


  • The following abilities will be adjusted:

    • Martyr
      • Recast time reduced from twenty minutes to ten.
      • Additional merits will no longer reduce casting time, but increase HP granted by 5% per merit.

    • Devotion
      • Recast time reduced from twenty minutes to ten.
      • Additional merits will no longer reduce casting time, but increase MP granted by 5% per merit.

I would like to respond to a few questions we have seen regarding Araise.

Quote:
  • Revives and bestows Reraise III upon target PC

If the weakened state caused by Reraise III isn’t as short as 3 minutes, it would be better to use Araise to revive players than for them to reraise, wouldn’t it?
Reraise simply serves as insurance in the case of an emergency, so we do not plan on adding the effects of Araise to it. Our idea is for players to use the effect of reraise when there are lots of KO’d players or if there isn’t a white mage at hand and to use Araise in all other situations, if possible.

Quote:
It’d be great if HP is restored to the maximum possible HP value while weakened.
We will look into this as an effect of Araise.

Quote:
At first, I thought this adjustment would further favor white mages. However, as I thought about it more, I realized that it is very likely that players would feel that white mages without Araise are useless. Based on the length of weakened state, Raise I, II and III are all rendered useless by the addition of Araise, and when fighting a strong NM, players will only want white mages with Araise. I feel like this, in turn, will add an incredible amount of responsibility for white mages, but how do the developers feel about this?
Please keep in mind that Araise will be extremely difficult to obtain. As such, it is highly unlikely that every white mage will learn Araise. Also, we plan on making the MP consumed higher and recast timers longer compared to Raise, although we are still in the development stage. With that in mind, although Araise does have the advantage of a shorter weakened state, Araise will never serve as an almighty spell that renders all other spells useless.

Hi Edyth,

Thank you for compiling this feedback.
What happened here was simply a case of a temporary development name slipping through on the test server.

All of the opinions you quote are right on target, of course, and you (and the rest of the community) can rest assured that the spell will be renamed for the official release.

Thanks for keeping us on our toes!

Greetings! I’d like to share some feedback in regards additional comments we have seen related to Araise.

  • Getting rid of weakness
    We don’t have any plans to completely remove the weakness death penalty, so we decided to shorten the weakness time.

  • Making it an AoE
    We looked into this at first, but the system for Raise is unique amongst magic, and we were unable to do this as it’s not possible for magic to select and target dead characters.

  • Making a separate “short weakness” Raise and a Raise “with Reraise effect added”
    Araise was primarily designed with the former in mind. In other words, the main special effect of this spell is the short weakness time and the secondary effect is the added Reraise element. If it is not necessary, we can cut out the Reraise. We were not looking to create a Raise spell that had Reraise added to it, so we are not thinking to create this type of spell separately.

    There have also been comments saying to just make Araise be Raise IV. While we do not have any plans currently for implementing a Raise IV, if we were to make the spell, I believe it would have effects such as 5 minute weakness, increased HP amount when raised (or possibly full HP recovery), and zero xp loss.

  • XP Loss
    The same as Raise III, Araise will return 90% of the experience points that were lost.

With tomorrow’s test server update, it will be possible to cast Arise. Please be sure to check out the recast time, MP cost, etc.

There have been some requests asking to make characters that have just been revived invincible for a short time. Not just for Arise, but as an adjustment to Raise overall, we will try and see whether or not we can eliminate the damage from AoE attacks during the raise animation. In other words, we need to confirm whether it is possible. This will take some time and it is very possible that the result is that it is not possible, so we appreciate your understanding if this turns out to be the case.

Should be a sexy spell assuming it's not super expensive with an amazing long recast time.

Now that I'm finished posting, I like the new direction they went with.

Arise was originally planned to be an AoE Raise, but giving RR3 after the player gets up is a nice MP saver, plus the 3 minute weakness is a very nice bonus for every job.

Good news, I approve of this spell

Bad news, it drops from level 100 Nyzul Isle Uncharted NMs and killing all legion HNMs at the same time. I can see it now.

Even with the long recast time it's a useful tool for a DD that has a habit of dying or someone like a tank who needs up and needs to be healthy quick.

At least this spell would be worth the 3.5M-5M pricetag.

Even at the height of EXP being serious bsns, Raise III wasn't that much different than the easily acquired Raise II.
