Is it a 4x3, full legendary, dookie level 5 event gems?
And then no one joins the lobby because your character (likely an alt) is near āon-ilvlā but you still want to clear the raid that week.
Thats actually a very interesting idea⦠why the heck hasnāt a team of designers at AGS not thought about this?
Since support heals/shields/buffs are party specific, not raid wide or global, if you donāt have a support (identified as someone with Blessed Aura or Desperate Salv engravingsā¦Iād imagine easy enough for devs to code for) then your party may use unlimited healing pots.
That puts us in a much better position. Sure, that party is still hampered by the gold cost of health pots, but at least the raid can progress with less of an issue of survival.
Just give this game the path of exile treatment: give everyone 1% lifesteal. Support will never be desired again.
I think the game is designed to run 1 support in a 8-raid. Support party has high dps low survival class (sorc gs db etc) so they need the shields. Since thereās only 3 dps, they need +dps buffs. Other party should be tanky dps (des arti scrap etc) so they take low damage and only needs pots, and since theres 4 of them they have good dps also. So the ratio of support to non is 1:7, about the same as number of support classes to dps (with artist included).
I mean whatās the point of tanky dps if they also need a support? Destroyers get a shield with every other attack, and has a time-stop like skill. Gunlancers just have a perma-shield. Demonics heal with every transform, and they do it alot in a single fight. Arti has itās own shield skill. If these classes need more defense on top of what they already have, theyāre not really good players, or cheapos with pots.
