What Role Skills would you like to see for Healers?

Give me Shirk to use in Godka pls

Just skimmed over the thread. Apologies in advance if I echo anything. First and foremost though:

Protect - Given back to WHM (PvP version). Stats adjusted for all jobs to compensate for it no longer being a 30 minute buff.

Esuna - We all know what we want here

Eye4Eye - Giving this back to SCH is a given

Break - Just go away. Please.

==================

These skills are replaced with:

Embrace - Next beneficial spell (anything other than an ability that restores HP) transfers %enmity to the target. Amount transferred is increased with increased enmity generation. (more you have, more it transfers)

Life - For most fights, raised to a weakened state upon KO status. Self only. Cannot be cast during combat. Effect ends after use.

Symbiotic bind - Binds all party members within area of effect. Status: Symbiosis
Symbiosis effect: Some beneficial effects currently in use are shared by party members under the Symbiosis status effect. (maybe give that to WHM in 5.0 instead haha)

Mother's Kiss Removes Weakness from one party member.

I don't like the role actions for healers...they are kind of useless, I have never used rescue or break just don't see the purpose of those skills.Wish healers had more interesting role actions.I still miss virus can't get over how it went to the for when I used virus and disable all the time sigh*

As a SCH/SMN main I used to find it quite annoying when a completely different job to those used Virus as it would block out the intended jobs from actually using it to the full effect (more stats reduced/shorter cd). Not sure what to think about it being spilt in to Feint and Addle, maybe those two will get used more when the role skills are increased to 10.

Was Disable ever usable by other jobs though, thought it was AST only? It's still in PvP which seems a little weird.

Lucid Dreaming - Each healer (and caster for that matter) should have their own MP gain mechanic.

Don't Aetherflow (and Energy Drain), Ewer, and Assize already exist?

That's true, the only magic job that has no action to recover MP is RDM. Everything else had something within their own toolkit that they can use, albeit they are not as effective as Lucid in most situations. Also SCH/SMM Aetherflow MP recovery was reduced in SB from 20% to 10%... probably because of introducing Lucid.

Disable was always an astro only thing.

I don't want any more role skills they butchered WHM and gave all the other healers their skills. What I would like is for them to get rid of the role actions and just give each job a variant of the necessary abilities, and whatever isn't necessary is given as unique utility to WHM since they need a side niche.

Removed Role Actions: Break

WHM ONLY: Cleric Stance, Protect (PVP Version), Esuna (Returned), Shroud of Saints (Returned), Divine Seal (Largesse), Rescue, Nature's Roots (Surecast), Divine Temper (Swiftcast)
Note: This will make WHM a even better powerhouse healer, and give them defensive utility like Rescue, I would also suggest to give them Reraise as another unique utility, and Tractor to pull dead bodies that are nearby (Please make the spell self target and pull dead bodies atleast 40y away...)

SCH ONLY: Leeches (Returned), Eye for an Eye (Returned), Fortified (Surecast), Eureka (Swiftcast)
Note: Gives them back their precious Eye4Eye, but otherwise they barely lost anything.

AST ONLY: : Exalted Detriment (Returned), Blink (Surecast), Quicken (Swiftcast)
Note: .... They didn't really lose anything.
