Thanks for the tip. Never posted on here before so don't know too much about how it all works.

FFS will they ever make our damn weapons at least face the right way

After Playing WHM in susano ex and lakshmi ex for the last week here are my suggestions:

1. Remove the damn lilies. I never even look at them. I just immediately press benison after a Cure II. Just put benison on a 30 sec cast time and be done with it or incorporate the shield into Cure II via a trait.

2. Instead of your funny Lillies you could have given me a Job Gauge that keeps track of all the Regen Timers. That would at least be worth looking at.

3. Plenary Indulgence is completely useless. Might as well give me a trait that gives me the chance to reset the recast timer of tetragramation on a cure crit. Same effect and you don't need to implement a useless mechanic to do so.

4. Why for the love of god can i see another WHM's confession stacks? In the rare occasion that I actually use them I have to double check if the stack is even mine. Did your QA team actually play this game beyond a story dungeon?

5. I have too much mana regen. Yes that actually needs to be nerfed. I can die mid fight in susano ex and end up with full mana a minute later while playing normally. A DPS on the other hand is completely useless after a death. How is that fair?

I would recommend that you hold back on such statements until after we have experienced Omega Savage. I have a feeling that Savage healing is going to require a lot of healing.

After a handful of dungeons with my now 70 WHM, I feel I can finally give input on Plenary Indulgence without mimicking what I've read.

I should be a lawyer, with the amount of confessions I get. I kid you not, I've gotten several stacks of 3 confessions on tanks and maybe 1 or 2 on a DPS on a fairly regular basis. That said, the heal of PI is absolute weak sauce. Even with 3 stacks, the heal is absolute garbage and hits for about as strong as Tetra is normally. The timer on confessions also needs to go. RNG heals should NOT be a thing, let alone RNG heals that can fail because of some arbitrary time limit on them.

The skill needs a lot of work honestly, because even in the impossible case that you were able to get 3 Stacks of Confessions on every single player in your group without a single 1 falling off before hitting PI, the fact is that you're better off using Medica as an AOE heal because Medica is a more cost effective and reliable heal. If nothing else, I'd prefer if PI became a buff to the Lily mechanic and using PI would enhance the next ability that drained Lilies. Using Assize would have better healing/damage or even spread the 10% MP restore to other people in the group, Tetra becomes a guaranteed crit, etc.

There is no ability or trait from level 60 to level 70 that has the potential power to justify the amount of gates they have on them currently.

Would Benson be even a little overpowered if they removed lily usage? No

Would PI be that horrible unbalanced if they removed the confession timers? NO
