I'm bored when I heal because I need more complex DPS rotations

[ForsakenRoe]

As for Repose... that gets into a whole thing with rehauling Enmity which in turn would ask for a replacement for Esuna that calls for an elemental system of sorts (set on fire -> douse with water; wet and therefore susceptible to ice and lightning -> dry with wind or fire; poisoned -> increase the afflicted ally's Resistance because it has a flat damage reduction component, which is then far more powerful against quickly-ticking DoTs; etc., etc.), so I'll save that for another time.

If they're going to keep Repose, I'd give it an additional effect of '10% damage down for X seconds' (balance as needed), which would also affect bosses (the sleep would not). You wouldn't spam it because it's a massive damage loss (since Repose is a GCD), but it allows for a party that is lacking defensive capability to cover for that. Harrowing Hell with DRK/GNB is way harder because neither can contribute their 90s, they're magic only and the damage coming in is physical. But with this, you'd at least be able to cover part of HH with another 10% you wouldn't normally have in that comp. It also gives WHM access to another mit tool, even if it does cost a GCD to use it. Maybe you could give WHM specifically some kind of interplay between it and Blood Lily so that it's not a damage loss for WHM specifically (not much thought put into this so it's probably not balanced)

You know, it's funny you should say that...



This was from ARR White Mage, not that this invalidates anything you're saying of course, I just think it's really interesting and kinda funny.

Another example of 'strangely worded tooltip catches players unaware', possibly. You're right that it's funny though.
