I don't think that's the right comparison to make. BLM is probably targeting the tanks target, which helps control enmity.. Holy is AoE so it's pulling additional enemies, not just the tanks main target. Unless you are talking about a blm spamming Flare 11 times, in which case everything should have been dead by that point lol

Sounds like your tank may need more AoE theat vs single target threat

I don't think that's the issue.
Flash spamming aoe comp I find tank does alright when I don't join in with DPS, but when I start spamming I start accumulating enmity fast.

Will have a go tonight and test a little bit more, but I 'feel' like Holy earns a hefty amount more enmity than it should.

With as powerful as Holy is I personally do not mind the high level of hate, not to mention if you Aint dyin you Aint tryin right ? Right??

That's interesting because I've stolen hate as DRG stunning targets for the tank before.. Least it seemed like it was related to the stun.

I personally would rather Holy and take agro then not and let a dps take agro. I can control how much hp I have. I know how hard I'm getting hit. And if I haven't holy'd too much I can always hit them again to give another stun.

I do think Pld's AoE threat is seriously under-powered. If you're 100% full on mana it's not hard but chain pulling multiple mobs drains mana hardcore thats when I lose threat to Blm's

SE should take out cure 3 and give us 1 of these

buff spell (haste?)
An additional mechanic like Aflatus solace or basically any of the wow priest abilities theres alot of cool ones there. http://www.wowwiki.com/Priest_abilities
Sacred Prisim

Bah ffxiv whm is so barebones ...

Ah yes i remember having 3 spells to cast for almost 30 levels. Meanwhile I had 5-6 spells for ACN by level 8. I think that buffing/tweaking Cure III might cause whm to be OP since all the balance so far are not taking cure III into consideration so might as well ditch it or make it an instant cast but HIGH MP spell. lower POM cd is needed, good ability. I would like an instant self heal spell (cure II potency) on a cd. That will work better than reraise

So you want to get instant MP refresh with no side effects? We can just ask SE to give us all ilvl90 gear for all classes by moogle mail at next login.

Well, we kind of did get ilvl90 weapons by logging in at the end of 1.0 ;p Lol.

No seriously. White Mage should have Flare.

A means of healing both the tank and melee while not having to waste time moving or putting ourselves in range of potentially deadly AOE. Not to mention Overcure puts out some pretty large numbers and you can top people off quite easily.

I do think they should rework it or replace it but I would definitely use it if the radius was a little bit wider so it would hit all the melee and tank(s) on a single large-ish enemy.
