Iam fine with the way protect now, it just like those long buff in typical mmorpg, wow with that 60m buff something like that.

I would however like if they get rid protect time, so in party healer cast protect and thats it, protect stay with you until either you die or you leave dungeon (or party if you are outside dungeon)

Or better, protect have additional effect like xx% chance to not inflict you with weakness debuff if you die but only work once or any interesting additional effect
