    Stoneskin shouldn't have been removed

    Instead of removing it entirely, they should have put Stoneskin II as a button in cross-role with the name changed to "Stoneskin" without the tier designation. There was nothing wrong with Stoneskin II, the problem was Stoneskin I because it could be cast mid-battle and was a trap button for lower skill / ignorant players.

    It really isn't needed.... my AST shields are typically stronger than what Stoneskin provided. SCH has shield, WHM now has a shield.... its just redundant.

    It's still here! It just has a 60 second cooldown and consumes all your RNG lilies

    I havent used ANY Stone skin for ages o_O
    Because its simply annoying, and if I cast the slow AoE Stone skin, people dont bother to wait and the battle starts - skill not useable.

    So I removed it from my skillbar <.<;

    i saved so many lives with stoneskin in dun scaith, especially in the diabolos fight. people with stacks or weakness wouldn't survive the raidbusters otherwise, and often there is only another WHM or the AST/SCH don't shield the people properly.
    i also used it in dungeon runs at the end of every trashpack on the tank - when the last enemy died the stoneskin landed on the tank for the next pull.

    but however, i mained WHM for years, but i already switched to DRK. i wanted to switch back to WHM with 4.0 but nah, after what i have seen i will not touch the WHM again, lol, Stoneskin wouldn't rescue WHM.

    Yeah it's strange not seeing it in the development build. Everything is subject to change though before release.

    Whenever i am off tank in any kind of Primae / Raid i keep Stoneskin active on both healers (or on people with weakness)... i have yet to see anyone noticing it, beside one player who bowed to me after Titan...

    For me, its an extra safety tool on my PLD to add some extra 10% hp to my healers in case of bad things happening.

    Idk, removing it might have upsides (cant really think of any) but for me its a lost utility tool. Good thing i can heal people (yay, except i am usually not on the lookout for low hp teammates, and when its really required it takes too much time to > realize i need to heal > target > heal ... during that time hes either dead or fully healed allready).

    DOn't really know how to feel about it
