- Shroud of Saints (WHM): Refresh duration increased to 21 seconds.

Those are pretty much the only gripes that immediately come to mind.

Would you intend on keeping the SSII cooldown on the GCD outside of combat? It was originally introduced as a QoL function for WHMs in 8-man content, IIRC.

60 seconds isn't a very long time at all, so yeah.

It's just the idea of having skills that don't work during combat seems a bit wasteful to me.

No, I meant, it was created so that healers don't have to SS everyone manually after a wipe. I'm okay with making it usable in combat under a cooldown (or not even one, and just raise the mp cost a bit so it's not spammable), but if you use it in combat then wipe right after, having to manually cast SS on your raid before the pull kinda removes the intended purpose of why the skill was created, IMO. Removing the CD you proposed outside of combat, or just adding a blanket MP cost raise but let it be usable in combat is okay.
