SO I'm not really sure why the suggestion of 'leave WHM alone' was made, when it's literally just one change between what others said, and what you said.
    "leave one alone" in this case meant "don't make WHM its SB form". That is, that horribad lily system that SB had which was hot garbage.

    - Aero 3 is one of those skills that was designed to be used for both ST and AOE. It's potency was high enough that you'd use it in ST as well. Holy has never had potency remotely close to being able to use it in ST,
    And that's completely irrelevant when pointing out the user in question is on the record saying he didn't want AOE abilities to be used in the single-target rotation. He describe Misery as a necessary evil but that he disliked being in the single-target rotation as well. Anyway, it's neither here nor there, I just always think it's interesting when people change their position based on who they're arguing against or what they're arguing for.

    [EDIT: For my part, I find it a good design since you have less "dead" buttons that you only use in dungeon trash by allowing them to be used as part of the single-target rotation, thus making less wasted hotbar bloat spots. Aero 3 and Misery working in both is a far better design decision. :EDIT]

    - So you're okay with adding a 24s DOT back to the job...
    I don't like it, no. But I'm okay with it. I think there are better things to do instead, but it would shut up the people constantly asking for Aero 3 back, so that would already be a positive. And I don't mean that to be snarky, it's just there are so many things people complain about all the time through rose tinted goggles, if all it takes is that to make them content, then I'd take it as an acceptable loss. I still absolutely hate DoTs and will NEVER understand the love affair some people have with them. I'd rather basically anything else, even a 1-2-3 rotation over DoTs. But apparently, THAT'S unacceptable for some reason. So Aero 3 it is, eff it.

    ...don't look this gifthorse in the mouth.

    When I oppose something, you hammer me over it, and when I support something out of exasperation, you hammer me over it, too. Keep doing that long enough and it might get people to thinking you just want to be a contrarian.
