I'm alive! And last month I posted a fic for #520DayReverseExchange. Happy belated 520!🖤🤍
This is a gift for @/Koschei_B - a short lil fic about Shen Wei and Ye Zun, and an AU on how things might have gone at the end of YOHE.

Please enjoy🥰
@Rafiraga Even if my 8 week old baby had been born scrunched and ugly I still wouldn't ever say anything like that?? sounds like someone who might be an okay person in general but should never be around kids
@pantswarrior I'm relatively okay with Dzemael but - admittedly I don't think I've been there since they re-did it for duty support? but like. toto-rak. 😬
Am I constantly pulling up the map in a dungeon I don't know that well? Yes😂
@pantswarrior me of the old noct AST, my beloved, RIP) and before that I was a WHM main so it was all reactive, as long as the party survived the hit it would be okay - but I found that SCH is 99% mitigation and very poor at pushing bulk healing which was my WHM trained default for +
@pantswarrior Agree that lower levels don't have much... but IIRC even WHM at this stage just has something like cure/regen/group heal and that's it? definitely wait for more SCH abilities to come in before you make an assessment of the playstyle!
+
@pantswarrior in "oh shit" scenarios, you know? But I suspect that's more of a me / skill issue and that SCH mains might cope better at higher levels / be more familiar with the toolkit and what they can do when. I really like SGE for the balance of reactive and mitigation (it really reminds +
@pantswarrior aww bless directionally challenged tanks😂
if I'm honest SCH is my least competent (and least played) heal and when I was levelling/playing it last I did feel like the toolkit at higher levels was lacking compared to my other healers, like I didn't feel like I had good options +
@pantswarrior put your fairy on "don't cast anything unless I tell you" (they will still cast their base heal) and then put all their abilities on your hotbars. Congrats their abilities are now yours
At low levels there's not much to do tho just press those two (2) dps buttons😅
@Rafiraga I had to baby step my way from "go to work and struggletown" to "it's okay to take sudafed and go to work feeling slightly less shit" until I finally arrived at "use your sick leave and spend 14 hours a day sleeping you dumbfuck, you'll get better faster".
Definitely a step up!
@pantswarrior have started doing the most recent dungeons for the first time with Duty Support as a bit of a "don't die stupidly while you learn the mechanics" buffer & it's working okay so far!
Of course nothing can prepare for the experience of a tank pulling to the wall until it happens🤦♀️
@pantswarrior yeah definitely being able to play with muscle memory/reflex so you can concentrate on the new stuff is a good idea! I've utilised Duty Support mostly with levelling alt classes so far (when I stop everything to read tooltips and figure out abilities no-one complains😂) but I +
@pantswarrior Yeah it's a huge undertaking!! When I was getting my pocket tank up to speed with her DOH/L gear I ended up making a spreadsheet to make sure we didn't miss anything & then we just had a crafting fugue for about two days ^^;;
Recommend the BSM tools as a good early investment!
