    Focalization - Add piercing resistance

    Focalization should increase resistance to piercing attacks, at least in the Feast (and other 4 man PVP content). There's no other PVP ability that becomes completely useless depending on the OTHER team's party composition. Combined with the fact that MCH is still OP as hell, this should be a no brainer. As a healer, I need this extra button to press if a WAR, DRG, and MCH are all dogpiling on my melee who took the atk potion.

    I think focal is a bonus. And the mages are the most troublesome. Mch and Brd get a burst. But it's like 1 shot then they run alil dry for awhile. But mages oh lord... Fire IV, Fire IV, Fire IV, THUNDER. Or... Tri Disaster > Bane = x_x then, Fester, Painflare, Deathflare. All boosted by raging strikes is very hard to deal with. Plus all this goes through PLD cover. All this can be handled but i'd rather fight the MCH or BRD where I can just try to get through that one heavy attack. Rather than deal with the mages running wild out there. That's where Focal seems like a nice buff.

    Then we have "Testudo" or "Thrill of Whatever it's called" to deal with a lot of extra stuff. Focal really hits mages hard but if it hit all the other jobs too. It would water down a lot of he hype.

    Focal is a blessing, we don't need to hit the other jobs too with it IMO. Virus and Disable is pretty much enough. Also if you are healing and your team gets hit by ranged burst. Don't blame yourself. Everyone knows that they should LoS that ish by now.

    I suppose if you're queuing as PLD, you have both Cover AND Testudo to help deal with ranged physical dps. As a solo-queuing healer, I can get WARs who don't bail me out with Thrill or DRKs who don't have any party mitigation buffs at all. Carnal Chill can only hit one person and Delirium takes 3 GCDs to get up. Also, if you've never healed in Feast before, just know that trying to keep someone up through Wildfire+Between the Eyes SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS.

    Wildfire...? That's not usually a factor in mch burst...if they let that go off for any meaningful damage that's on them not you. You need to be worried about the off gcds and a cleaner shot
