Thread: Changes I would like to see in 3.15 Patch Notes

These are the patch notes I'd personally like to see. Thoughts?

PALADIN:

-Rage of Halone combo potency increased from 260 to 300. Enmity multiplier increased from 5.5x to 6x.
-Circle of Scorn cooldown reduced from 25s to 15s. The initial Potency is now 150. The DoT is unchanged (30 potency for 15s).
-Shield Swipe potency increased from 210 to 260. The TP cost has been reduced from 40 to 30. On the GCD.
-Clemency can now trigger the barrier on Divine Veil.
-Shield Oath now additionally allows the Paladin to cast without interruption.(Surecast effect)
-The effects of Tempered Will and Hallowed Ground apply immediately rather than after the animation.
-Tempered Will cooldown reduced from 180s to 120s.


DARK KNIGHT:

-Carve and Spit (without Dark Arts) now deals 200 potency and refreshes 1768 MP.
-Carve and Spit (with Dark Arts) now deals 450 potency and refreshes 100 TP.
-The Dark Arts effect for Dark Dance now increases parry rate by an additional 15% rather than increasing Evasion.
-Walking Dead will also be removed if the Dark Knight reaches full HP, in addition to the way it is removed now.


WARRIOR:

-Defiance now increases HP recovery from all non-self healing sources by 20%.(rather than just from spells)
-Storm's Eye potency increased from 270 to 280.
-Butcher's Block potency decreased from 280 to 270.
-Equilibrium cooldown increased from 60s to 90s.


NINJA:

-Dancing Edge potency increased from 260 to 290.


BARD:

-Wanderer's Minuet no longer adds a casting time to weapon-skills. The effect now ends upon moving.
The 15s cooldown now begins upon activation. The duration lasts until you move.
-Iron Jaws no longer has a cast time, but still requires Wanderer's Minuet.
-The casting time of Warden's Paeon, Mage's Ballad, Foe Requiem, and Army's Paeon have been reduced from 3s to 2s.
-Swiftsong no longer has a cast time.


WHITE MAGE:

-Benediction now applies immediately rather than after the animation.
-The casting time of Stoneskin reduced from 3s to 2.5s
-The Conjurer trait Quick Stoneskin changed to Enhanced Cleric Stance: adds 10% accuracy to Cleric Stance.


BLACK MAGE:

-The duration of Astral Fire and Umbral Ice has been increased from 10s to 12s while under the effects of Enochian.

The brd change actually sounds like it would be more annoying than the current WM. At least now I can throw WM up and just leave it up until I swap classes or until I end up in a fight phase that has a ridiculous amount of movement in it.

I would like to see the cast time on songs reduced though, and I don't think Warden's Paean should have a cast bar at all tbh.

This.
Misleading thread name is misleading.

And while we're at it, why not include this:

SUMMONER

- Egi Glamour system is now available. You will be able to change the appearance of your pets (Summoner only).
Talk to the NPC Y'mhitra (Old Gridania X:10 Y:16) for more details.

- Enkindle skill has been altered in the following ways:

All pets:
- Skill can now be used from afar, no longer making the pet move closer to the target.
- Skill potency: 250.

Ifrit-Egi:
- Skill name has been changed from Inferno to Hellfire.
- Skill no longer applies the DoT Inferno.
- Skill potency has been increased (200 -> 250).

Titan-Egi:
- Skill no longer applies the DoT Razen Earth.
- Skill potency has been increased (200 -> 250).

(Each new Egi appearance change gets its own Enkindle name/animation, as well as skill equivalents depending on their type).
