WHM's Medica which spread-out has a radius of 15 yalms. Cover is focused and only has a range of 10 yalms. Doesn't it make more sense that a focused beam of aether should go farther?

So I won't ask for a gap-closer. I just want Cover to be effective within 15 – 20 yalms.
Paladin doesn't need a gap closer like at all.

I also think cover is fine. if you're covering a whm who's 20 yalms away what exactly are they going to get hit by? generally the reason casters are so far away is so they don't get hit in the first place. and if they don't get hit they don't need covering....

wait actually I would change cover. i'd make it take debuffs off the target... makes no sense that I can cover a stormsplitter or something yet the main tank still gets the debuff from it.. when I effectively took the hit
