Is anyone else more confused than ever, did SE mask bad changes with good ones.

Why do people cry about Divine Seal, if they don't know how strong it will be (maybe only 10%?), how much healing is needed in specific contents and how new abilitites affect healing prowness.
Without further explanation I call Divine Seal (or whatever it is now) as optional as CS, both propably not mandatory to complete fights.

And why do I need 'Shroud', if I have a BLM sacrificing one mp tick for mana-goading me. If that's less dpsloss for him than me gaining dps+ from CS over the fight I don't see the point why it should be mandatory.

Emnity? We don't know if emnity generation is changed, if it's on the same ability like before (SoS, LA), etc.


Getting stronger is a thing, too. I might need DIvine Seal for some contents at a certain ilvl. Do I still 'need' it the same way 15 or 20 ilvl later?
Currently DS isn't as mandatory for the healing power anyway, it's nlt like 'Oh shit, DS on CD, I won't be able to heal that."
It's more like 'Oh nice, stronger regen to stay longer in cleric.'
