Skills/spells you see no reason to use since you got to 60?

I haven't bothered with Alexander yet, myself. Though even if it's handy there, the number of fights where you'd need 700 extra TP in less than five minutes is very, very, very few I would think.

Any fight you needed Paeon in order to keep attacking its useful. Several Coil Turns and Primals fall under that category (at least, before overgearing the fights, and assuming phase pushing to prevent preventable breaks). Alex 2 3 and 4 can as well, depending on phase pushes and DPS.

Only WAR skill that's pretty much useless, besides Foresight

Foresight is one of those initial hate skills I use pulling a group, Tomahawk > Junk ability to grab initial hate on adds. Plus it lowers damage taken by like 1/17th of a percent.

Isn't Convert part of the optimal BLM opener?

Now that I don't know. I'm definitely no expert xD And it seems that rotations for BLMs are still being toyed with. For AoE openers I would assume the answer is still yes because the Flare nerf wasn't as huge as people made it out to be.

SCH:
Ruin - only when synced very low, otherwise Ruin II and Broil are way better.
Emergency Tactics - I really don't see a situation where a shield is worth less than pure HP.
(somewhat) Dissipation - I can imagine that it can be useful in some situations, but I am yet to come across one.

I have also stopped using Stoneskin at all, Succor usually gives around 60-80% of the shield Stoneskin would, is faster to cast and is AoE, yes it's somewhat useful when used before an encounter, but most of the time it just feels like a waste of time.

People saying abyssal is useless.
Id take ranged overpower over damaging flash any day of the week.
Not to mention it does more dmg per cast.

It can be pretty useful if you're doing something with another SCH.

Maybe if it was a toggle, but as a 15s duration I just don't see that.

Warden's Paean (DOESNT prevent WAR pacification anymore)

Is this true? Since when?

That'd be cool and all if it didn't cost a buttload of mp for being 20 potency stronger. :V

Its probably good for an initial ranged mob pull but that's it, At least for me.

Or maybe just inexperienced. I remember as a wee whm the first few times I used it I was convinced it was a lie. My target always died anyway leaving me wondering wtf just happened. As an "instant" cast this is one of the trolliest game mechanics ever conceived in the minds of men.

As you gain experience you understand how invaluable this spell is. But that doesn't change the fact that for new players lacking information it's a total headache.

Benediction has been and is often more then not a life saviour or even wipe saviour. Also, you have to keep in mind that there had been a problem with casting benediction sometimes back that even if you pressed it , it didnt go off, now that has been settled. If you dont use benediction, albeit, at a last resort or in an emergency situation due to its cool down, you really arent doing all your best to try and keep everybody alive. I dont use it all the time but when I use it is just about a real life saviour, it doesnt remove the fact that the guy can die anyway but at least you tried your best.

Dissipation, on the other hand, I tried to use it once out of you know trying to use it and see how it works, not Worth it, that is probably THE most useless skill they could give us. You gain some more Healing power but the loss in mana to call back your fairy once CD is over and the risk involved depending the fight you are having is kind of not somethign I would take again.

Just me though
