Divine Veil

[Brannigan]

I like the triggering aspect of it because it rewards some kind of teamwork and coordination. You don't need it in anything you're going to rando PUG anyway. The biggest problem with it is that the cooldown needs to be cut in half. I could also maybe see them making it more like 1.x Divine Veil, where the buff on the paladin wouldn't fall off and it just granted your party a regen effect every time you were healed during the 20s or whatever.

It's pretty ridiculous that they launched Divine Veil in such a crappy state AGAIN after pretty much doing this exact thing in 1.x. Like, yeah, the games are different, but not so different that a stupid long cooldown on this (and Cover, and Tempered Will) is suddenly fine.

Except in anything that requires teamwork and coordination, you don't need it and teamwork and coordination can come in through different methods and often times do.

I rather have this skill booted out of the door, and replaced by another skill entirely.

Agreed.

I'm fairly certain the idea behind Divine Veil being activated on heal is to allow a PLD to "precast" it and give the healers control to activate when they feel they need it.

Whether that was necessary or not is arguable.
