Benediction

[gehrtalert]

Benediction is fine the way it is IMO. There are alot of dungeons that I don't even use it. If you are a good White Mage, you should never NEED to use Benediction. Making the CD of it 1 minute would make things too easy for people who don't know how to use the other heals.

saying that a good WHM should never have to use it, is not such a great idea. i am very confident in my healing abilities, but sometimes, in endgame 8-man parties, the other healer sucks, so you have to heal the entire party alone, sometimes the tank takes too much damage, and you still have to heal other people, and you know you can get to use benediction before he dies. it depends on the situation.

This. When Sammy Speed Run doesn't use mitigation...you have no choice regardless of skill.
