Getting WHM on Par

[Leigaon]

Honestly, I think a better solution would be to make fights require consistent healing....

That to a deeper extent, would be ideal for everyone. I forget that most of these complaints are from a raiding standpoint. I still freak out sometimes being in damage dealing stance thinking "I've been in here for a while..how is it someone isn't dead?" then a DRG dies so I feel better. ^_^

Like some have said, I would like a few things to just be adjusted for WHM. The DoT spell duration increase, consolidate stone spells, have bene be instant.

On the other hand I think Assize has a good step in the right direction, being able to heal / damage deal and give back MP. Depending on your stance will determine which has a bit more potency to it. I wouldn't mind a MP reduction on just stoneskin..I know I shouldn't but I like to use it when I can on black mages. That's more a personal thing.

Trying to think, what would be some solid cases of being identified as a white mage do you all think?

Maybe something like Bar-Magi that's a potent magic reduction but on a cooldown. Or En-light that is party wide, acc boost / elemental damage to attacks..or maybe they'll have us deal more with debuffs in 4.0 and the rebuild. In which case I'm happy to throw down a Slowga.
