    Cure II has been 650 potency since forever lol.
    About it not being a nerf, it actually isn't and is at the same time. If we consider new tanks will have 16k hp, lustrate would instantly recover 4k hp. Considering we're going to have 800+ mnd with i170 gear, lustrate will now heal 4.5k ish.

    The only issue is that lustrate no longer bypasses healing debuffs and cannot be used mid cleric stance.

    Don't forget to crit-adjust/DET-adjust as well now (when compared to the previous "static Lustrate"). Also the fact stacking crit will not only make us crit more often, but our crits will be higher numerically.

    That's a thing though, with Infirmity and similar debuffs.

    Now that specialty will be given to WHM, with Benediction and Tetragrammaton being percentage based.

    Funnily enough, yeah.

    These kind of mechanics haven't been really prominent lately, though. Even in T5 progression back in 2013 it was more satisfying to land those heals so that they landed immediately as Death Sentence hit the tank and the Infirmity icon got up, but so that the heals still healed for their normal values, than it was to Lustrate away. (Of course that was done too, though!). Oh well, funsies to be had from here on too! Here's hoping for some interesting mechanics and shit.
