    One thing that would help healers/casters is if Surecast was consumed at the completion of a cast instead of the start.

    That is to say, currently if you use Surecast and you get stunned/silenced during your cast, oh well, better luck in 30seconds. Instead, Surecast should prevent your casts from being interrupted until you complete a successful cast, at which point the Surecast buff is consumed. This is how most single-use buffs in this game already work.

    It's also how Emergency Tactics works. It's very strange to get an ET + Surecast heal interrupted, but only have one of the buffs removed.

    Well it sorta makes sense to me. Surecast takes effect as soon as the cast starts hence why the buff is consumed then. You don't see emergency tactics really take effect until the actual heal is finished casting.

    That's because Emergency Tactics is a hard worker. Surecast is this guy:
