I agree that we should get rid of Cure III, and rework Plenary so that with 3 lillies for instance it would do a big AOE heal. You still have to fix how the lillies work though.

Yet in 5.0 we'll get Cure IV, that heals you and the furthest player for 950 potency. Added effect : puts you on top of the enmity list.
Plenary Indulgence really demonstrates the dev team has little to no idea how we play. There is no scenario whatsoever where you'll get three Confession stacks and still need PI afterwards. Actually, no. There is one scenario. In Ucob, if you only have tank LB2 after killing Nael, a WHM can burst heal enough to make up the difference. Hooray, we've found a percentage so small, there's likely more solo PotD/HoH clears than scenarios where you'd actually want this much raw healing. It's simply a shortsighted design, but also one I worry the dev will maintain. We simply aren't healing enough to warrant what players have at their disposal, which is why WHM looks so decidedly inferior. Neither AST nor SCH rely on GCD healing. This leaves two options, WHM gets an overhaul and moves away from its current design philosophy or the devs try to emphasize healing requirements more.
