So, why not Nerf Regen potency and M2, while buffing cure and Cure 2? HoT effects are overly powerful in this game.

They want to make WHM the pure healer, then it SHOULD be overly powerful. A joke of a single target shield, no debuffs, only mitigation is in role skills. If all we have is healing and personal DPS, then we should be better at it than the others.

If you lower regen potency, you're just going to reduce the cast frequency on my Stone and Aero. I'm still going to be using regen so that I can use Stone and Aero instead of Cure.

Even with a 400-600 total potency HoT in comparison to a 550 basic heal? Interesting.

400-550 regen potency versus 550 heal is all your words. In this scenario, what you do is you delete regen from the game and just have cure 2 because regen is worthless.

If I'm wrong, the worst that has happened is that I've wasted some of my downtime discussing the issues I have with what has been presented to us for a couple of weeks.

If I'm right, I have to suffer for an unknown amount of time with a fundamentally broken class, or switch to a different job, but at least I've done my best bringing my issues to the forefront so they can possibly change sooner rather than later.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see what the better option is.

Suggested this in the other thread but do we actually need Confession for Plenary? It seems to me the heal would work reasonably well if you just made it consume Lilies instead for it's tiers of potency. At one lily is a weaker Assize, at two lilies it's an improve Assize, and at three lilies it becomes a semi-impressive capstone. Wouldn't this make good use of a resource we are already generating and (with the confirmed 100% Cure 2 proc) allow us to attempt to plan it's use?

No amount of healing potency in the world is going to best this. Fact is, all healers need to heal all content, so they'll never design fights that will NEED a WHM to heal it. All healers need to stay around the same level with healing, so it then comes to what else they bring. WHM brings nothing else. It doesn't matter how much they band-aid fix potencies and proc rates, the lily system doesn't offer anything worth while. It's essentially the Spear casted in yourself.
