And considering they already gave us an aoe version of stoneskin in the past it just doesn't make sense that they would bring it bake the way they did. It's a slap in the face to people who play whm.
    As a WHM main, I don't want AoE stoneskin during battle. Too overpowered.

    Pre-enagement only prz.

    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..

    Why should anyone read up on a game that no longer exists? I don't understand your argument.

    Reread what you just typed. The core gameplay is completely different, an AOE stoneskin would be way too strong in the current game (ARR) it worked great in XI and 1.0 because the system allowed for such aoe abilities to exist without feeling to "OP" because of the slower paced battle systems. It seems as if you wanted something earlier than the expansion, sadly for you it won't happen. If Yoshi and the dev team gives us something in the exp, great! If the they don't whatever, i guess you just need to deal up and learn how to play WHM and utilize stoneskin efficiently rather than spamming it like an adlo.

    And this is why you aren't a program designer. You lack the fundamental understand to think beyond what the developers have told you. Please, keep reiterating what they have stated to seem like you make sense. My argument is simply that it was a crappy call by the devs.

    You... just invalidated your entire argument right here...
