Please fix protect

[Tint]

+15% defense does NOT mean 15% less damage taken. The actual value if that defense is like....3% mitigation if I remember correctly?

It's pretty useless, but I mean it's free so we're expected to use it. If you were forced to have it equipped to have the effect persist, I wouldn't bother in dungeons, and maybe not even in raids. Assuming I would need surecast of course.

yes, you are technically not forced to use Protect, because it's a rather weak buff. at least in casual content - in raid progression it's a different story, when every little bit counts. but you will have two healers there and only one needs Protect.

however, actually you are forced to use Protect, because a dungeon will not start without you casting it. we are just so used to wait for the Protect at the start of a dungeon that a healer will land very often in a situation where he has to defend himself why isn't casting Protect. and of course has to explain every time when a dungeon starts that he will not cast it, otherwise people will stand there useless waiting for a while.
