Thoughts on PLD changes

[Brynhild]

I don't understand the mindset of only using Clemency in only very narrowly defined instances. It's there, why not use it? A Paladin is just not a paladin with the ability to Lay On Hands. As someone who plays both Paladin and White Mage, I appreciate any and every contribution to keeping the party healthy, no matter how insignificant. Thank you for using every tool at your command to keep us all alive.

Because the mana and GCD can be used on dps instead which makes the run faster.
Usually ( if I am the healer at least ) you're just overhealing and you're not actually helping.

No one is complaining about PLD's using Clemency to stay alive if it's actually necessary, the complaint is that A LOT of PLD's use it completely unnecessarily and are just wasting GCD's and mana.
If I've just thrown a Tetragrammaton and an Afflatus Solace AND you also have a regen on you + Asylum.
Then the last thing that I want to see is Clemency spam.
