    Graniteskin

    When is WHM going to get graniteskin back instead of the quicker cast stoneskin? Even stoneskin 2 was nerfed.

    This trait was really unique and useful to WHM, but now the stoneskin effect gets used almost immediately.
    Iwould really like to have this back, i hope others do too.

    I dont see why this was changed in the first place.

    Never. Their justification? 18% (was it 18%?) would have been overpowered with the increasing health bars. Or some mumbo-jumbo like that.

    So that's a 18 k shield then?

    On that same WAR, if they are geared for raiding with melded or str gear, would only give a shield for about 2-3 k. I know that SCH is the protection healer, but I dont think doubling the capacity on stoneskin would change that much in the grand scheme of things anyway would it?

    Again, I play healer for funsies in four mans, I only raid on Monk and War.

    He's most definitely talking about the shield already being doubled. I'm at i203 and I only get 4.3k crits on WARs, there's no way in hell you're going to be hitting a 9k crit adlo.

    Convalescence, monk mantra, and defiance. I saw adlo crit for almost 6k as a warrior way back in 2.X.

    Stoneskin being 10% is fine how it is. A bit more and its too strong a bit less and its too weak.
    I do think Quick Stoneskin is also not that good though. I mean, its not bad, it helps! But maybe making it 2s like any other heal instead of 2.5s would be better.
