Soo... about WHM Tetragrammaton.

I didn't see the point when I first got it and now I use it every time lol. It's really useful for those moments when you know your cure 2 is going to be too slow to keep the tank alive and he's really low on HP.

And the best part is that its animation is instant! unlike Bene... >.>; so it's more reliable. XD

Buffed? I feel like this is a troll. If anything it is too overpowered to have both beni and tetra. The tetra animation should have been given to beni to reduce the stupid animation cast time and left it at that.

Beni's cooldown is huge, though. Tetra can be used a lot more freely, just like Lustrate and Essential Dignity.
Besides, what would they replace it with? Fluid Aura II?

Yeah, Lustrate and Essential Dignity already exist, I feel like having Tetra and assize as well is too much and makes content a bit more faceroll.
I'm not too sure what other level 60 ability they could have included but I just don't think Tetra raises the skill cap, if anything it lowers it.

Funny thing about this is White Mages make the job easier overall. Not harder. >w>

Here's the thing it cost zero mp. I can heal on the go and casting Cure II followed by tetragrammaton is a pretty good nuke heal when someone is low. Having played around with our new heals more I can't say I dislike or hate any of them, they are all great additions to the WHM arsenal.

maybe its not the skill concept itself, maybe i was just expecting something more FLASHY lol Asylum,Assize and AeroIII animations make them loom very flashyy. this one is just Meh bleh

-"Well, my healing partner is dead and I need to be able to heal the tank!" *Pops Swiftcast + Raise on healer, then pop Tetragrammaton on tank during GCD cooldown*
-"My tank is about 50% HP and currently has infirmity / malady! I give no craps!" *Pops Tetragrammaton*

Ghishlain sums it up very well. I wanted Tetra to be before level 60 so I could use it sooner -- it's one of the nicer abilities.

Even if you're on top of things -- you have a Cure II landing right as a big tankbuster hits... combine that cure II with tetra and that's 10k+ HP restored faster than the health bars can update.

Also, casting regen means no one gets a cure for 5 seconds (well, 5.5ish if you count animation delay). Among all the other things mentioned, Tetra can cover that gap any time it's up.

I would say that this applies to most job... Level 60 skills don't seem to be quite the culmination that getting our level 50 skills were; for most jobs, it's more like just one more tool in the kit than an ultimate ability. But Tetra, simple as it is, doesn't want for utility.

I'd trade both Asylum and Aero III for an extra Tetragrammaton (30 sec CD) any day of the week, and I'm pretty sure 90% of the WHMs would too. I don't think you are even close from noticing how extraordinarily useful this spell is lol.
