Divine Veil

When is it appropiate to use this ?

Can' t for the life of me get it to work right.

Either everyone is too far away, or I don't get a heal because the healer is doing other things so it wears off.

I suggest creating a macro that announces in party chat that you are using Divine Veil so it will be easier for others to know to group up near you and for the healer to trigger it.

Please don't. I hate those tanks who make macros for every skill. It might work in a static where the healer and everyone knows from the sound effect alone what's going on, but if you have to read it's often useless. Either it's not really needed because it isn't that critical, or if it is really critical/needed, the healer won't have time to read the chat. Keep those macros only for the really critical stuff, like Hallowed Ground for example.
I recently had 2 tanks in A4 who announced convalescence with a sound effect macro for gods sake!
And divine veil lasts what? 30 seconds? If it wears off because you didn't get a heal in 30 seconds it clearly wasn't necessary and thus didn't matter anyway.

Just do what repoe said, use divine veil in the right moment.

i use it when im playing paladin for any mechanic that ppl tend to group up for aoe healing, ie: bloody fuller/pillar Ravana ex, phase transition in A4, AS! when ppl are stacking to prep for the 8x Resin puddles

well those tanks were probably macro happy. Who in the right mind macro's Convalescence? The only skills I have macro'd are the "oh $!@#" buttons i.e Holmgang. I also include a timer to countdown how long till the effect wears off but that's it.

For Divine Veil just use it when people are relatively close or stacked for phase changes. I think the range is about the same as Flash so its pretty short.

Well it wore off because the healer was dpsing too much and had to panic heal the dps back to full health during the boss fight xD.

you can take this ability off your bars and not miss it, just another fluff ability like cover, pld got shafted this expan with the new moves

Veil is amazing. Use it between phase transitions.

Wouldn't it be useful for A1S prey mechanic where the tank is doubly taking a tank killer?

Divine Veil + C3 etc.

You mean if prey on tank? Veil doesn't work on tank only on party.
