Initial non-play-tested thoughts of the WHM changes

I expected the 100% Lily Generation on Cure. I'm disappointed that there aren't more ways to proc Lilies at a low rate to increase the fluidity of the kit as a whole.

Plenary Indulgence change is surprising but not completely unexpected when thinking back. You can kinda tell they were thinking of making it an AoE because it had a massive range to it and it affected all party members. It then became better as a tank heal due to how Confessions accumulate. They definitely wanted to nip that in the bud. Overall - it's not amazing but I like that it's an augmentation to WHM's AoE heal kit.

1. Medica + PI = 450 potency heal.
2. Cure III + PI = 700 potency heal, rivaling that of Earthly Star (on the same CD timer too)
3. Medica + Medica + PI = 900 potency healing total (useful for those chain AoEs that can go out)
4. Medica II + PI = 350 Initial Potency + 500 Potency Total HoT

Not so sure how much I'd use the Medica II + PI combination as Medica II is already pretty potent and efficient. Since PI is a static value, combing it with Medica gives the most bang for your buck though the burst power of Cure III + PI allows WHM to almost match Earthly Star in any singular burst.

It's not Tetra but I'm not disappointed in this change either.

[edit]

An issue when using the white mage action Cure wherein the rate at which players receive the Freecure status is higher than intended.
