The only issue with PoM Holy spam is that it gets the stuns out of sync. I've found that I can keep mobs basically stun locked with 3 holys with my current SS.I really love the new Presence of Mind. I use it all the time now! Wanna try something fun? Next time you're with a tank that's doing big pulls Cast Divine Seal + Regen on him then do Cleric Stance + Presence of Mind + Holy (SPAM DAT HOLY!!) If you have a Bard to do Foe Requiem even better. ^_^
The new PoM helps stoneskinning a full party before the pull as its so much better now tht its on a low CD and its duration is longer.
New Presence of Mind is much better. I especially love it in PvP
Cleric Stance> PoM> Equainmity> HOLY SPAM FEST
Saying PoM is useless tells me a lack of skill/knowledge in class. Here are its uses for newer WHM's.
For Curing
Totally Precautionary. When you use it, you will never know if you have just saved the tanks life.
For Nuking Single Target
This is the best use for it. On a boss where you are with a tank you trust to keep hate. You will produce so much hate so be warned. DS Regen just to buy you as much time as possible. Now, to make the best use of the annoying animation lock PoM has, using the DPS rotation below I have found works best to keep you GCD uninterupted.
Starting the Nuke: Cleric Stance > Aero II > Aero > PoM > Stone II > Stone II > etc.
Finishing the Nuke: etc > Stone II > Stone II > Aero II > Aero > Cleric Stance Off > HEAAAAAL PANIC
Things that are important with this:
Aero is insta-cast so we have a moment of GCD where we can pop PoM and not interupt our GCD.
Aero does pretty much the same damage as Aero II.
... carry on
Stone II is actually stronger than Both Aero and Aero II (I will explain at the end so read before flaming) so don't reapply Aero + Aero II until you are ready to start healing again.
The Reason We use Aero + Aero II combo at start is to set us up for actually using PoM inbetween GCD.
Have trust in your Regen.
Nuking Multiple Targets
Holy Spam. Nuff said.
Okay, so here is why aero and aero II shouldnt be refreshed in the middle of your DPS rotation. Testing on a dummy shows these %
Aero: 77%
Aero II: 78% or 76% (dependent on crits i think)
Stone II: 79% BUT 58% with crit.
Over time, Stone II pips both of your dots. Reapply Aero on the move (dodging).
I use it all the time now. It's pretty great.
There are those situations where you are spamming Cure but the tank's HP is still gradually going down. PoM allows you the momentum to beat incoming damage usually.
Are you kidding me? I LOVE the skill now. 15 seconds of optimized DPS!
PoM Holy spams give me LIFE.
This ^^, works a lot on those speed runsI really love the new Presence of Mind. I use it all the time now! Wanna try something fun? Next time you're with a tank that's doing big pulls Cast Divine Seal + Regen on him then do Cleric Stance + Presence of Mind + Holy (SPAM DAT HOLY!!) If you have a Bard to do Foe Requiem even better. ^_^
