the normal content is too easy

As a WHM since ARR, I'm going to respectfully disagree with this point. I had easily mastered the sweet spot for movement on a cast so it would still go off before the lily system but I find that I am able to be much more fluidly mobile than the past. It's similar to when they removed Cleric Stance from being an actual stance. I could dps under old Cleric Stance. The change just made it a much more fluid experience.

WHM just had more movement options in older content because DOT’s had a shorter refresh timer and we had 2 (not counting aero 3 since it had a cast timer) WHM’s one movement option in 5.x was dia’s refresh timer (outside of slide casting), WHM was incredibly non mobile in ShB, it’s why I wanted Dia reverted to aero’s shorter duration rather than this stupid 1.5 seconds on every healer that just ruined the use of lily’s

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Our experiences may be different. I don't overly worry about optimizing so maybe it's something that only manifests in that situation. But encounters and jobs can't just be designed only around the hardest content or the most optimized playstyle. I didn't feel non-mobile at all in ShB and I've felt much more mobile since the introduction of the lily system, once they fixed it. Prior to the MSQ revamps, when I played WHM on lower level alts I also felt mechanics kept me in place more. I haven't tried on WHM on them since the recent changes.

Oh yeah that’s a difference I’m coming from the perspective of “lily’s were a DPS loss in ShB so don’t use them” in which case WHM was a disaster
