Pally cross class

[Omagana]

I always have Stoneskin, Foresight, Bloodbath, Protect and Raise as my Cross Skills. I've never really seen a need to have Mercy Stroke and/or Fracture as the chances of me landing Mercy Stroke at the right time are slim to none and if you have either a MNK or DRG in your party they'll more than likely be using Fracture in their rotation.

It's quite easy to land a Mercy stroke kill on an add in some fights, like the Magitek bits in Ultima. Free heal and if you miss the kill, free off GCD damage. Also your target can have multiple Fracture DoTs on it, someone else in the party using the ability won't impact you using it.
