While I can't currently speak for the non-WHM healers, MP Cost is potentially a very real reason. It's part of the reason I still use Aero, even though it's 10 less potency - it's also like 30% less MP, and if I'm in a fight where I'm trying to max DPS while healing, I'm often running on fumes towards the end of the fight.

hell yeah they better

I think we will able to use macro for some set of rotation.
One button for few skills.

I don't want more skills. Modified versions of existing skills sure, but more skills would lead to bloat.

Broil and Stone III is a good way to go OOM on both of those healers. Same with malefic 2.

You have to take mana cost into account.

Stone 2 costs 442 MP with 170 Potency, Stone 3 is 530 with 210 potency.
That works out to 0.3846 potency per MP for stone 2, and 0.396 potency per MP for stone 3.

So, no. for WHM stone 3 is more MP efficient.

Scholar's broil is a different story though.

Currently there is enough skills as it is and adding more would just be insane for the amount of skills you will need on your bar and personally im not a fan of that. Personally, i want them to add a few more traits/passives for existing skills.

SE doesn't seem to know how to do skill balancing and there should've been some new traits in 3.0 but everything seemed rushed and half-done.

New traits that combine skills maybe.

Like a trait that when you cast say bio. It will cast either bio 2 or 1 depending on the remaining time on the dots

Or say combining heavy thrust with that always crit lifesteal attack

Or making jump crit attack a buff that you get automatically every 30 sec

There arr lots of possibilities

I mean full thrust :(
