Only have a level 56 WHM at this juncture, so gonna keep my comments to the respective spells I have access too
Asylum - I wish it was bigger. When boss circles are bigger than the size of Asylum, it's hard to make use of it as it tends to only cover the MT in these scenarios. In terms of usage, I've more or less been using it as "Divine Seal + Regen #2" in the sense that I use Regen + Asylum together as a "Regen+" then pop Divine Seal + Regen on the next pull and just try to alternate as I can. Overall I think it can use a minor tweak to increase usability.
Stone III - Bigger Stone II, 'nuff said. It gets the job done and done well. My only complaint is an aesthetics complaint - I HATE WATCHING THE ANIMATION FOR THIS SKILL -.- Oh wel.
Assize - Single handled the best WHM skill out of the five in my opinion. Major damage or healing and a 10% MP restoration? {Yes, please}. No complaints at all about it.

06-25-2015, 12:59 AMGhishlainThat boss is really fun. So far I've really enjoyed all the dungeons and the music is superb.Quote:

Like, Sacred Soil is 8y and I think that'd be the perfect size for Asylum too (instead of the 6y that it's currently at). In fact, it feels slightly smaller than 6 since it has the same size as the final boss of Dusk Vigil's target circle and he feels tiny compared to T11 Kaliyah (where Sacred Soil is just slightly bigger than her actual size, making it easy to envelope everyone in). -
06-25-2015, 01:09 AMRisvertasashiJust my opinion but it only gets better. I know the forum avatars are wonky and don't always update very well... have you gotten to the level 59 dungeon yet? I think that's my favorite pre-60. (Speaking of asylum, that + DS regen gives me the time to read the books...)Quote:

06-25-2015, 01:20 AMGhishlainNah, I'm still 56. I haven't had a lot of time to play after the early access weekend due to work and real life drama hitting the table. I'm also leveling AST and SCH on the side via DRs (currently 36 AST and 51 SCH) as I want all healers to 60 ASAP.Quote:

Having gone as far as Bismark EX, I'm mostly satisfied with the WHM loadout.
Asylum feels a bit small compared to Sacred Soil, but it's bigger than Shadow Flare/Flaming Arrow/Salted Earth apparently. I'm not overmuch bothered by the size, but I've read somewhere that Divine Seal doesn't affect the potency of the regen effect which is messed up. I hope that's just a bug waiting to be fixed.
Assize is a great ability. Being a free Medica that deals damage and restores mana I find it very useful. Especially since it can be used through silence and requires no cast time. On top of that it can deal hefty damage in Cleric Stance. I hope it stays the way it is and doesn't get the same treatment as Holy.
Tetragrammaton is a good addition as well. It can be used to burst-heal a target, bring two separate targets back up at the same time or heal on the move without having to overkill it with Benediction.
Aero III is a neat AoE addition to the damage spells, especially now that Holy got nerfed again. But I can't on principle agree with Stone III as it is. Right now the spell is just the same as Stone II but with different potencies and mana costs. I'd much rather have a spell that has a mechanical difference instead, like that between Stone I and Stone II. -

Yeah, Stone 2 needs something or stone 3 needs to be different or... something. Straight replacing abilities isn't how this game works for anyone else.
Wait actually Ruin and Malefic could probably both use something, cause they're also replaced. -

I dislike doing High Level roulettes purely because I keep forgetting to switch out Stone III with Stone II. <.<
And then I forget switching back when I get out in the overworld and wondering why I'm doing so little damage... D'oh. :p -

If elemental resistances was a thing, Stone III could have lowered that. For better or worse, elemental resistances isn't a thing.

Is Divine Seal not supposed to work with Tetragrammaton? Cleric Stance weakens yet, but Divine Seal gives it no boosts....
