We need AE StoneSkin badly !!

[seiya001]

I am not English speaker , if any grammer error , please forgive me..

Ｍy Main is a WHM , and I like this job very much .

Before every raid or dungeon start , ppls always ask StoneSkin.

It is very ok to cast Stoneskin , but need to cast 4 times, waste everyone's time!

If joine a raid, each time wipe also need to wait recast StoneSkin (very troublesome).

I strongly suggest SE just make StoneSkin like Protect ,become AE style.

If SE afraid AE StoneSkin will become another heal skill in battle , that's fine , maybe

Just increase another AE StoneSkin only can cast without Battle .

Anyway , We need AE stoneskin badly , it is a very pain to cast so many Stoneskin

in every raid or dungoen , thanks.

We could do it in 1.0
Miss it very much as well

As I mentioned several times in other threads.
Just make it out of combat only and it can't be abused.

macros could help meanwhile.

/ac Stoneskin <p1>
/wait 3
/ac Stoneskin <p2>
....

One click should be enough for any party of 4 or 8 (I believe it s 15 lines the limitation for macros, if less then you would need 2)

With the coming changes to /wait command it will be like below so should be only one click (check dev post if you haven't read)
/ac Stoneskin <p1> <wait.3>
/ac Stoneskin <p2> <wait.3>
...

still takes time 3*4=12seconds or 3*8=24seconds

I know that humans find anything that lasts more than 1s too long tho

Maybe higher lvl traits will unlock the most wanted AoE stoneskin, but it is not gamebreaking as it is. Annoying yes.

succor with additional effect of stoneskin XD

[NightWrath]

A new trait for whm, when cast out of combat, stoneskin is applied for all allies next to the target.

in 1.0 it could only be done on a skill, the skill could AOE any buff. something like this would be good on a long timer like 5 mins.

I wouldn't waste that cooldown before a fight to buff people.
I would stoneskin each guy one by one.

I would stoneskin each guy one by one.

yea most would do the same, hence the reason the op said that SE could make it outside of battle only to prevent people swift casting it in battle and dropping a raid wide stone skin on the party (making it very OP in combination with SCH shields)

I agree also SE should consider this idea it would make stone skin buffing the party before pull as simple as a quick succor buff!

[FJerome]

I'd only want this if Stone Skin became a targeted AoE and not just a party-wide buff like Protect. Otherwise we'd lose the ability to cast Stone Skin on people who aren't partied with us, which can be useful, or at least fun, for FATEs and drive-by newbie rescues.
