    Lilly Bell's niche use really does put a much bigger magnifying glass on Macrocosmos. It's why I'm just personally against the idea of nerfing Macro first. A capstone ability should FEEL strong in ALL situations no matter how trivial they are. There's no surprise Bard and Monk players were unhappy last expansion, and big parts of the reason for that unhappiness was due to disappointing capstone abilities that couldn't be relied upon or were situational at best.

    I would much rather focus on finding the ways to bring Lilly Bell in line with Macro. From a standpoint of potential, I love the idea of Lilly Bell. A true totem heal in a game where all we so far have has been bubbles at best that gets close to it. It could be a very unique powerful ability, it just was applied in a really poor way. I would love to see the dev team just rework it so the White Mage can choose to 'pulse' the bell themselves. It wouldn't take anything fancy. Just the moment you place it the Icon changes to an actionable combo, letting the healer use it again to consume one of the 5 stacks. You know how good that would feel for a White Mage to be in raid wide damage situations and weave in pulses of the bell while they glare? That would really just lay into the feeling of healing and damage powerhouse a White Mage should have.
