    Clemency a bit OP?

    First off, SB made a huge stride in the right direction for PLD. I will likely switch mains. Good work SE!

    About Clemency:
    In HW, it was pretty already pretty powerful, allowing some boss fights to be cleared despite having your healer die almost immediately.

    In SB, I've definitely pulled more than i should have on multiple occasions or even had healers just not paying attn, but spamming this skill alongside convalescence and requiescat has saved me several times. A few blocks and shelltrons later, clemency is ready for another go.... This is before considering the accident forgiveness from HG.

    I believe this is overpowered for 2 reasons:
    1) other tanks do not appear to get similar survivability.
    2) it steps on the toes of healers. If healing is needed, but the healer isn't healing, the death of party members is a reasonable penalty.

    Thoughts? I haven't played the other tanks yet. Do they get anything similar in regards to survivability?

    For those not familiar with PLD changes, clemency can now be cast 5 times in succession before out of mana, can be boosted 20% by requiescat, and the amount of healing is on par with skills like benefic II / cure II.
