One or two good ideas, but they're so densely surrounded in homogenization that I'd stop healing entirely if all of these changes were introduced.
So, you're saying you're fine with AST being the only one who can comfortably weave oGCDs without clipping? You remember how badly PLD functioned when its stances were on the GCD? The change to PLD's stances had to happen in order for PLD to function at a competent level. Either AST and WHM also get something like Ruin II for weaving or WHM and SCH get the 1.5s cast times, but, either way, these are essential tools that the healers need to function. It's like SCH still not having a Cure II at lv80, and it suffers terribly for it.

Stop calling essential tools homogenization.
