As a WHM I would love having an aoe ss that could be cast occasionally... Clearly there would have to be limitations... Just as there used to be when it was in the game. Go read up on what the game used to be..

OMG people can complain about anything.
A QoL spell was asked for by players that are banging their heads, trying to learn the raid, and wiping repeatedly - which the OP doesn't seem to raid much according to achievements
18% SS during battle would feel a bit too powerful unless it has insanely high MP cost- learn to dodge man.
and LOL swift song doesn't give combat advantage - it allows you to dodge shit easier if you can move faster, and it's a good thing that it isn't allowed in combat
SINGLE TARGET STONESKIN:
3sec (Cast time) X 8 (players in a full party) X 9001 (wipes) = 60 hours of casting stoneskin on the whole party.
STONESKIN II:
7 hours 30min.
EDIT: Also stoneskin should only be cast during battle to prevent death. (drgs and their ridiculously low magic defensse) Not to mitigate 18% health in raid damage. Doing the latter is a good way to go to MP 0.
