lilies is just trash all around. If you really want me to go into the details on why I can, though I imagine most people are tired of hearing about it by now.

You know what's really bad about this? SCH and AST gets their GCD reduction as a bonus. WHM has an entire mechanic surrounding it that accomplishes the same thing.

It's almost like they've gone out if their way to make WHM the most uninspired and boring healer to play for no reason at all. It didn't have an identity at first. And now it's identity is based around a mechanic that both other healers can do in their spare time. Lmao.

Going to post my utility thoughts for WHM again before I go to work, and hopefully get more feedback:

Dispel - remove basic ally debuffs or enemy buffs. With 1 Lily, enhance Dispel to remove most buffs/debuffs. With 2 Lillies, choose between party debuff removal or all enemy buff removal. With 3 Lillies, target EVERYTHING.
Astra - One ally debuff prevention for a short duration. Thought about this some more and figure no need for this to interact with Lily system.
Shellskin - Cast and function like SCHs Succor, but provide no healing upon cast, instead increasing party magic resistance and mitigating a fixed percent of magical damage while Shellskin lasts.
Reflect - Act as a single ally buff to reflect damage back, starting at 5% for 10sec. With 1 Lily, enhance to also reduce 5% damage taken. With 2 Lillies, double both percentages. With 3 Lillies, double duration.
Finally, the return of Shroud of Saints and Divine Seal for reliable MP refresh, enmity control and power booster.

For me, one big "buff" on White Mage is Presence of Mind can be use on Alied targets.

What am I missing? It still shows Range 0y and Radius 0y.

Range 0 = self only =p It's the same PoM as ever.

Target-able PoM would be amazing though. Make PoM and Thin Air target-able. How's that for utility?

no. i refuse. Thin Air is our only new Toy. i'm not giving that away when i can use it for DPS to kill stuff since all we can do is kill stuff and hope we help kill it before it kills the tank and group.

You are 100% correct. I am sorry for suggesting it.

"Darn, I can't think of anything else to give WHMs....Hey wait! Didn't they say they wanted their old Stoneskin back? Hahaha, we'll give them their old Stoneskin back alright!"
